    Tteokbokki... but kinda not? Wouldn't recommend this specific appetizer. Price for this was also crazy.
    Haru S.

    Update since my last review a few months ago... We came on a weekday night, so even though there weren't a lot of guests, it was a bit understaffed. We waited a bit before someone came to the counter to set us up with a clean table. Staff are friendly as always. The seats were oily though, and I had to use a napkin to clean off the surface and remove an old piece of meat sticking to it. It's a little dark inside, so just check your surroundings before putting your stuff down. Overall food was good. Again, banchan is a bit bland and if you want hot tea or water, you have to ask for it. If you expect to compare this to other "more authentic" Korean BBQ places, don't. You won't find hot barley tea or anything here. Just treat this as a nice local experience. Staff here were kind to bring us hot water for older guests who are used to drinking hot beverages. Bring your own tea to steep if you want something other than Lipton. Definitely much more chill on the weekdays! Enjoyed dinner with my family. Thanks for having us :)

    Did a group dinner to try it out. In general I like the place. I think we allowed ourselves to eat at a little faster pace than I would prefer and I would try a broader range of proteins next time. There was a bit of a language barrier with the server- not bad just a bit harder to communicate effectively. I don't think there is an option for barbecue of this caliber anywhere close to the Exton area. Worth a visit .

    Literally made reservation in front of the guy and said still have to wait.

    Restaurant is empty. Told it's a half hour wait. I literally show him OpenTable and every single slot is open. The guy at the front then says still have to wait. I look into the dining room. No people at all more than half the table are empty. What the heck kind of customer service is this?? Absurd. Let's see how the meal goes Literally made reservation in front of the guy and said ok I have a reservation. He's like no. I can't seat you still. Have to wait.

    This was our first Korean bbq and it was so delicious. The service was above and beyond helping us grill and cut our food. Inside and out was very clean and decorated nicely. I really enjoyed this place the drinks were so good.We chose to do the all you can eat so we tried a little bit of everything. The marinated steak was my favorite meat choice. This was definitely a fun place to have lunch I can't wait to go back.

    The O2 of PA. One of the better kbbq spots has finally landed in the neighborhood. The food is good as expected. All the cuts of meat from the beef brisket to marinated beef (kalbi) all on point. You can't go wrong with any cuts. The service is still working progress. It's weird to be ordering in English though... I'm used to ordering everything in Korean to the server so my brain fogged up. The place is newly renovated so nice and clean. The air is a bit stifling with smoke; kinda hope they had better ventilation system. Make sure you don't bring anything in that you do not want smelling like meat smoke. The major differences between this location and the other two: The grill is not the signature round black cast iron lid. It's the classic small one so surface area for cooking is a bit smaller The other is the portions that they bring out. I think this is also part of the working progress of understanding how portions work. For example; I am a beef brisket fiend. I asked for like 8 servings from the get go but.. they just looked at me confused. Could be a portion control thing but, my fat butt knows what it wants so kinda hoped they just gave me everything at once so I didn't have to bother them over and over again. I'm actually trying to do them a favor if you think about it... Overall; great. I love that this is within reach now. I am going to be broke and fat(ter)

    To be completely honest I had mentally set a pretty low bar as most ayce korean bbq places are subpar at best but O2 pleasantly surprised me. We went her (koreans) for my mothers birthday and enjoyed most of the flavors and meats. Would be happy to return. Our server was a bit blunt but it did not ruin the experience.

    More like 3.5 stars. I was there for lunch today. Overall, it's a decent dining experience, but nothing makes you "wow". Service is friendly and attentive, restaurant ambience is upbeat, meat choice is okay for the price range. What I don't like is: 1) side soup is nothing like what it says on the menu--I ordered "beef soup" and there's ZERO beef in my soup, only several thin slices of turnip; 2) the side "steamed egg" is too salty; 3) marinated meat and chicken are drowning in the sauce so the flavor is overwhelmingly tangy; 4) ventilation is weak so my clothes smelled "greasy" after I finished lunch. It's worth trying if you're nearby, but I don't think I'll make another trip for it.

    Beef Beef Thin Brisket and Beef Bulgogi
    Jennifer C.

    Restaurant atmosphere was so cool and very spacious. All the servers were nice and friendly (I guess they serve all tables together). I had a high expectation coming in so I was a bit disappointed with the meat quality. We had .. -Beef- Hanging tender Marinated steak Galbi steak Brisket Bulgogi -Pork- Spicy pork belly Pork skin And...the only thing that was really good was "Marinated steak" for me. Everything else (meat-wise) was not good. Their side dishes were amazing and so as Bean paste soup & Spicy tofu soup. We'd just order Marinated Steak only next time.

    Really wonderful new place!! We heard they opened and we just HAD to check it out. We loved every minute of it. We went around 12 pm and were the only guests at first so we had very fast service. The staff are seriously the nicest people you'll ever meet and do a lot of the cooking themselves and teach you how to do it yourself. You can add sides, request for more, and basically make any kind of concoction you want. They also must have updated their "beef soup" recipe because ours had beef and veggies in it and was really good! Loved the chill and modern interior too, the layout is incredible and they have so much space. We will definitely be back for more!! We can't wait for the entrees that will hopefully be available this week too :))

When I first drove up, I didn't not immediately recognize it as the former Ship Inn because the traffic pattern at the intersection was different and the building looked more updated. The interior was spacious. My friend was at the bar where we sat the entire time. Since my friend was a regular, he knew the bar tender, Morgan. He vouched for her Old Fashioned which just happened to be what I had planned to order. The Old Fashioned was good. She made it with Evan Williams Bourbon. It had a good blend so that it was not too sweet, too bitter or overpowered by the bourbon. My friend ordered Garlic Parmesan wings which he seemed to enjoy. We sat talking for a couple of hours and never felt rushed. The vibe at the bar was friendly as folks came in and out for drinks. I will go back and check out the restaurant next time.

Wait staff was friendly and timely, so much so that I'm already planning a return! I will say that many tables were empty so it was a bit easier to serve us, but I hope in the future VK gets more business. Good people, good food, great beer.

After my second hike no question that I wanted to come back here for another visit. Station Taproom is an attractive and comfortable pub with what I found to be an unexpected menu. Many dishes had an Asian influence, but with the additional plus of showcasing some exciting combinations of ingredients. VEGAN BANH MI ::: I had this on my first visit. The sandwich was made with plant-based meatballs, along with carrots, cucumber, plus much more in the mix. (I detected a note of hoisin in the mix, though not mentioned in the menu). "Meatballs" were definitely unexpected in a banh mi. WONTON NACHOS ::: On my second visit to the Taproom, which was last week, I had "wonton nachos". As per the menu, some of the ingredients were "hoisin-berry BBQ pork" as well as mozzarella and pepper jack, and wonton chips. Presentation was important, and I could see that they had spent extra time in plating the dish. A finishing touch was the "micro cilantro" that was delicately sprinkled over the top. I love cilantro, but had never seen it in "micro" form. It was very fresh, wondering now whether they grew it themselves. BEERS ::: On both my visits, "Rachel" made excellent recommendations for hazy IPA's. Great experiences both times.
