We came here after coming back from Hawaii two days ago. We were pleasantly surprised…read more The BBQ short ribs were tender and juicy. The flavor was salty and sweet. The ones we had in Hawaii had a spicy kick at the end. These were comparably good. One flavor all around. No spicy after kick. The Kalua Pork and Cabbage was spicier than what we had at Hawaii. It actually tasted better. They added ginger and it was spicy. I liked the Taiwanese cabbage better than what we had in Hawaii, which was regular cabbage. The ribeye steak ramen was good as well. It makes me want to try the rib eye entree. I like the black pepper flavor. I took the steak out as soon as it served, so it would not cook anymore in the broth. I was impressed that they made it medium rare. The chicken broth was not too salty, which it can be in other places, so I was pleased that it wasn't. The menma bamboo was crunchy. Many places have it too soft. The black seaweed/wood ear like topping was also crunchy. The wavy ramen noodles were perfectly QQ or all dente. There were two doors to open at the entrance. Handicap accessible. No steps. Two gender neutral restrooms. Spacious. Handicap accessible. We found street parking right out front. We came at 7 PM on a Monday after the dinner rush. Our server was very attentive. He also answered all my questions. I asked it they were Pulehu Ribs. When he did not know, he went to ask his colleague. I would come back for the same dishes, get a bigger order of the short ribs, and try the garlic shrimp. Definitely a new staple for us. Before going to Hawaii, we never had Hawaiian food before. This was a good way to revisit our vacation!

Extremely friendly service. Spacious, airy dining room. Ok food…read more I stopped in for a quick dinner while on a work trip and went with the brisket plate (1/2 lb brisket + 2 sides). The brisket was decent (a little dry), the sauces were delicious. The collared greens had an interesting kick. At first I thought I liked it, but after a while I decided these greens weren't for me. The smoked beans were pretty solid. I'd definitely be curious to try some other things - the spicy chicken, the mac n cheese, etc. Hoping I'm back here for work some day to give it another whirl!

Being from the Philly area, we honestly don't have a ton of really good, authentic Korean BBQ…read moreoptions around here. I'm so tired of the fake k-pot style bbq....I've eaten authentic Korean BBQ in KOREA, in Vegas, my mom's house ;), NYC Koreatown, Annandale/Northern VA, and plenty of other places over the years, so I'm probably a little harder to impress than most when it comes to Korean food. That said -- this place in Exton is legit. I drive about 40 minutes just to come here, and there are plenty of restaurants much closer to me. That alone probably says enough. The meat is consistently fresh and good quality, the banchan actually tastes like Korean banchan should, and the whole meal just feels authentic rather than some watered-down version of Korean BBQ made for people who have never had the real thing. The flavors, marinades, side dishes and overall experience remind me of the Korean food I grew up eating and the places I've eaten at in Korea. That's hard to find around the Philly suburbs. Open late like good kbbq spots are supposed to, good drinks, not fancy, but authentic. What brings me back to my childhood - stainless steel thin metal bowls, cups, water out of a jug, absolutely nail the combination of quality, authenticity, and price. There is a reason I'll drive 40 minutes each way when I'm craving Korean BBQ instead of just picking somewhere closer. If you know Korean food, you'll appreciate this place. If you don't know Korean food yet, this is a pretty damn good place to start.

First time here and it was great, staff were friendly and checked in multiple times to make sure…read moreeverything was going well. They were able to accommodate solo dining like myself which was fantastic, although it wasn't busy when I went. The quality of the BBQ meats were better than I expected. The side dishes were amazing as well, really enjoyed the pickled radish. I also had fried rice cakes and gyoza which came out very crispy and fresh. I think my favorite two of the meats were definitely the Kalbi marinated steak and spicy pork belly as both had lots of flavor and were very tender. Was surprised to see a great KBBQ spot in this area of PA.

We definitely over-ordered but told plenty home for leftovers. For appetizers we ordered the pork belly bao buns and the Thai salad with shrimp. These are more entree size so be forewarned. The bao buns came in a taco server and had three buns filled with plenty of pork and a spicy aioli. The Thai salad came with 5 nicely charred shrimp and a Napa salad. This ate a little dry-I would have appreciated a bit more dressing- but I can see where more dressing might have made this a bit soggy. We would definitely order these again For entrees, we tried the burger and the chicken pot pie. The burger was a double patty with cheese, pickled onion, and a mayo based sauce on a sesame bun. I have to say I was happy to see that they opted out of the usual sad lettuce and anemic tomato that is typical of early spring. I think it was lacking some salt as it was missing something but overall was ok and served with crispy shoestring fries. The pot pie was topped with some puffed pastry and had a nice velvety sauce with hints of tarragon. Very nice. My dining partner finished my burger and took most of the pot pie and the side salad that came with it home. Even though my dining partner couldn't finish his regular entree, he wanted dessert. After looking at the choices the server suggested the seasonal dessert which was beignets with whipped cream, chocolate and strawberries. I was reticent but was happy with the choice because the chocolate dipping sauce (of which there was plenty ) was DELICIOUS! The beignets were fried puff pastry or croissant dough that one dipped in the warm chocolate fudge-y ganache and/or whipped cream. I ordered coffee which paired well with the dessert and it was delightfully fresh. Service was good, friendly and attentive. Decor is industrial farmhouse. Clientele consists of workers from the local courthouse up to about 6 pm when we saw families starting to file in. Nice place, good food, good value.

I think I screwed up and didn't check my email so mine didn't come off right away, but that was an easy fix all my fault. But I digress it is worth it $10 a month. You can't beat it. Cheesesteak pizza is what I'm really looking for first time trying it, and it didn't disappoint. I don't know where they get their shaved steak from but they're shaved ribeye is top-of-the-line. The flavor is so good mixed with that Cooper sharp like I said 1000 times before you do not have to go to Philadelphia to get a great cheesesteak. It's like the seated steer and pizza form with sauce. Come down here meet Christo and the family, and have a slice for me tell them Verse sent you.

I was really disappointed with my experience at this restaurant, mostly because of the bartenders…read more They came across as rude and unwelcoming from the moment I sat down. It felt like asking for a drink or even a simple question was an inconvenience. Instead of providing friendly service, they had an attitude that made the whole experience uncomfortable. Not to mention, it took me 10 MINUTES to get a server. The food made me feel sick afterwards and the poor customer service at the bar overshadowed everything else. A welcoming atmosphere starts with the staff, and unfortunately, that was completely missing here. I hope management addresses the customer service issues because it has a huge impact on the overall dining experience. Based on this visit, I wouldn't choose to come back.

*Takeout review*…read more Restaurant: 5/5 Food: 4.5/5 Parking: Free limited parking We've been wanting to come here for awhile, but have not been able to due to the location and the hours. We were finally able to stop in after a movie and ordered few items for takeout. There's also indoor dining available, but the seats are limited. The restaurant itself feels very unique, comfortable and there's definitely a hint of history showing. What we ordered: -Beef Patty (Delicious, very fresh and flavorful) -Vegetable Patty (Delicious, very fresh and flavorful. The taste reminds me very much of a Grandma's home cooked Chicken potpie) -Jerk Chicken platter (Very good and delicious.With the exception of cabbage, it had no flavor, could use some salt and pepper at least) -Curry Chicken platter (Very good and delicious, same issue with the cabbage) Keep in mind the patty's can take up to 30 minutes to make and cook, I didn't mind it they are well worth the wait. a MUST HAVE. Both of the platters comes with Rice or Rice and beans. We will definitely be back.
