Even though this time we did not see the robot which is always cool we did have excellent service. Our waitress was quick and attentive, she always helped in any way she could and make great recommendations. It's pricey but for a nice before surgery for my kiddo, totally worth it! Food is wonderful, we did the AYCE silver meals, the youngest did not eat enough for that to been worth the price but the gentleman made up for it. I would love for them to offer more side options or sauce options. The place was pretty clean, busy and a great place for date night, family night, or group get togethers

Honestly, I don't know why this place got such great reviews more than Gen KBBQ. They honestly do…read morenot deserve it. I came here when I was visiting my in laws, so naturally, I wanted to expose them to KBBQ. Unfortunately, I picked this place because a lot of reviews said its the best and allat, when in truth, this place is one of the worst KBBQ I have ever visited. Not only they stopped serving lettuce wrap (sure, they have it in the menu but they didn't stock it because their lettuce supplier increased the price or whatever), they did not offer any other wrap options like a decent kbbq should have (rice wrap, radish wrap, or shisho leave...etc). The meat quality? It's the cheapest cut you could ever get. The kalbi cut is so thin and tasted old (spoiler alert, they should be thicker and higher quality..), the other unseasoned meat cut is lower quality too. The seasoned meat were so bad I had hard time enjoying it. The bulgogi did not taste like a propee bulgogi and once again, tasted old like it has been in the fridge for too long. The spicy bulgogi was so grainy and not spicy at all, almost like they're using low quality gochugaru. Honestly, you will be much better off buying your own ingredients at h-mart or any asian grocery than going to this place. The only saving grace was the kind server who tends us often. 10/10 will not recommend.

We were in the mood for Korean fried chicken and this was the only place we could find near us…read more First red flag was that the restaurant was empty on a Friday night. The fried chicken was 100% frozen and they just added the sauce. We also got the fried rice which was straight up inedible. Waste of money and would not recommend.

This raw fish over rice and spring mix was delicious, a little on the pricey side. The Bulgogi fries were super delicious. There was a hint of sweet in this dish so it wasn't just cheese topped bulgogi. The jalapenos packed a little bit of punch but perfectly proportioned. My husband enjoyed his Dolsot Bibimbap. Every dish was presented well. It looks like a popular late night place for young people. I would come back. Note: the location was a little tricky as it appears to be at a corporate park.

Everything came out delicious, well balanced in flavor, and the portions were generous. The seafood pancake had a nice crisp and was a large portion with loads of seafood, the donkatsu was satisfying, and the tofu soup was comforting and flavorful. The owner was super sweet as well and kept refilling our water which was a good sign. Overall a really solid meal and a great place to stop if you're looking for hearty Korean comfort food in Cary.

This used to be a really good place. They apparently changed ownership a while back. I've been…read moretwice since then and was disappointed both times. Servers seemed slow and not attentive at all. Smaller portions than before, and this last time, my food (even the hot stone bowl dish) was warm at best. It used to be so much better. It's a shame. The ambiance hasn't really changed - not interesting or special in any way, but really, that doesn't matter. It's the quality of the food and service that really matters - and in my experiences after the change of ownership, they fall far short on both.

We've been to Seoul Garden several times over the last 8 years…read more It's always an enjoyable, relaxing time. The staff is very friendly and helpful. This time we opted for the BBQ, and chose Bulgolgi and Kalbi. Both were excellent, and the portions were good. But what really stand out are the multiple unlimited side dishes: Kimchi, daikon, sprouts, macaroni salad, tofu, broccoli salad. Every side dish was very tasty. I'm not even a fan of Kimchi (I often find it to have awful texture and bland). However, here it was firm and tasted great. So, I highly recommend Seoul Garden. Every experience is consistently a relaxing and enjoyable one with really good food.

Came here on Mother's Day since I wanted traditions Korean food & not kbbq. We usually go to Seoul…read moreGarden but since we're on this side of town, this was more convenient. Dining room was more than half empty at 12:30 Sunday afternoon. We were asked if we were doing kbbq & when we said no, we were told that it was a 30-45 minute wait. The excuse was that they had a super busy Saturday & the kitchen is still trying to catch up. I get that they're trying to push everyone onto their ayce kbbq menu but that was the lamest excuse ever. Don't you prep early to get the pars set for the day? It is less work for them to do kbbq since the cooking is done at the table but this left a bad impression. It's clear that they don't value potential customers.

Grabbed lunch from here recently and enjoyed myself!…read more The staff were polite and helpful throughout the meal. My wife and I ended up splitting the kimchi pancake as an appetizer, and we both got the beef bibimbap for our entrees. We didn't end up getting any interesting beverages this time, but there were a few draft and bottled beers available as well as soju, sake, and other variations of alcohol :) Anyway, our kimchi pancake arrived pretty quickly, and it was very tasty! I liked how the green onion was integrated throughout, and the dipping sauce was very flavorful. It looked like it may be a bit spicy but in fact was sweet-ish :) Our bibimbaps arrived soon after, served in hot stone bowls. In addition, they provided six different small side dishes, all of which were very tasty! I really enjoyed the variety, as they ranged from pasta salad to kimchi. Honestly, the bibimbap was maybe my least favorite part of the meal, which surprised me. It wasn't bad at all, with plenty of tasty veggies included, but it didn't blow me away. Maybe I should have added more of the bottled sauce they provided :) Overall, we both really enjoyed our lunch at Okja and would definitely come back!

I associate Korean cuisine with pure comfort, and Okja certainly delivered that! The banchan (side…read moredishes) were plentiful and tasty. We also got the: - Seafood Pancake (crispy flour pancake with squid, shrimp, crab meat & scallions): Definitely my favorite dish- perfectly crispy and simultaneously fluffy, lots of well-cooked seafood. - Tang Soo Yook (battered deep fried pork, drizzled in sweet & sour sauce): I've never had this dish before, but I will admit I imagined it a bit different. It was more batter forward so the pork did get lost, but the batter itself was super chewy and almost tapioca-like, which was interesting. I liked the sauce, but I wish it came separately for dipping as the pork did lose its crunch. - Bi-Naeng (cold buckwheat noodles with pickled daikon, cucumber, pear, hard boiled egg, beef & spicy sauce): So refreshing! Loved the chew of the noodles and how complementary the spicy sauce was with the sweet pickled toppings. The beef was on the tough side with not a ton of flavor though. Ambiance is really nice and spacious, there are two sides: one with the bar and booths, another with wooden benches. Service was surprisingly fast. Lots of parking. 8/10 would recommend!

I was good with that because the food was delicious and such good value. Shared 3 dishes between 3 people: seafood stew, ddeokboki, and spicy LA galbi. Loved all of the dishes, all delicious with substantial quantity and amount of veggies. Perhaps what stood out the most was the ddeokboki since that's the best value dish I've ever seen at any restaurant--large in quantity that doesn't shy away in the amount of mix-ins (fishcake, cabbage, green onions, etc). Definitely will be keeping this place in mind for the next time I'm in the area.

We were seated right away, and the customer service set the tone from the start. Our server was warm, attentive, and especially great at explaining how the dim sum works here. She did not just tell us; she actually demonstrated it, shared cooking tips, and made us feel completely comfortable jumping in. She checked on us often, and the rest of the staff was also wonderfully attentive without being overbearing. The food came out quickly. One of the best parts of the meal was being able to order steak, chicken, shrimp, and lots of vegetables, then cook everything just the way we liked it. It made the meal feel interactive, fun, and special. For my daughter and me, it was not just dinner -- it was an experience we got to create together. A heads-up for first-timers: there is a two-hour table limit since it is all-you-can-eat, and they do charge a fee for excessive waste. As long as you are reasonable and order what you can realistically eat, you should be totally fine. $39 per person. Thanks to Five Spice for a memorable mother-daughter experience.
