Staff were super attentive and accommodating - we appreciate the great service on a holiday! Ambiance felt modern and more futuristic - black, sleek counters and tables with K-Pop playing on all the TVs. Food was easy to order with the iPad and came out within a reasonable amount of time post ordering. Food selection was solid - we ended up just getting the hotpot option so we shared all the dishes that came out and put them in our individual pots. Flavors were solid and quality was fine. It was a typical AYCE experience so we left full, but we had a good time. Thanks, KPOT!

I went for the first time to the Overland plaza restaurant and I've been thinking about it ever…read moresince! I love Ramen so of course I had to try ramen noodles in the Szechuan Spicy hot pot with garlic cloves. We used the grill to cook our onions, peppers and more garlic cloves with garlic shrimp, beef bulgogi, short ribs, steak and I tried the beef tongue. I couldn't remember how my grandmother made it but putting it directly on the grill wasn't it... lol! I will try again after looking up a few recipes! The staff there is awesome and very helpful. I went with a friend who K-Pots frequently so she was mainly fixing ours and showing me the ropes and adding my choices on request; basically showing me what and how to prepare. We chose the dinner option during lunch hours to get premium meats. Our server was always coming to make sure we were ok and I wish I could remember her name now. So sorry! I have to say I enjoyed the entire experience; ambience of the lighting, music, table setup, staff, and there was an anime event they were preparing for! It is definitely an experience to be had and I will be going back real soon!

I was a little worried at first because we entered the town and it was late and empty. But fortunately when we walked in, it was still open as advertised.

I'm visiting New Jersey for an improv comedy festival. I spotted this restaurant while checking out…read morelocations in the neighborhood. I dined with 6 of my friends for lunch. It was great! Everybody loved what they ordered -- including Jjajangmyeon, Kimchi Fried Rice, and Chicken Katsu. The gentleman, who I believe is the owner, was also our server and prepared our meals. He gave us "service" (complimentary Fried Rice Cake), in addition to the usual ban chan. I ordered the comforting Doenjang Jjigae (Soy Bean Paste Stew), and two orders of Tteokbokki to share. Would definitely recommend for authentic Korean food and would visit this place again. Ring the bell when you are ready to order!

The food is fine. I usually split the tteokbokki with 3-4 people, and it's a decent deal. The issue…read moreis moreso with the service. I've come here a few times over the years, and I have repeatedly had problems. I typically ask for the meat on the side, and there's about a 50/50 chance it comes on top. They also messed up my order several times, and there's a chance they refuse to replace it (even if the receipt item doesn't match with what they gave me). I do not blame the cashiers or workers for this because I've ordered with several of them and had the exact same issues. This is a management-level problem. Most recently, they charged me for something I didn't order and said they were unable to do a partial refund. I told them that I didn't order the item and didn't want it, and they told me that a refund wasn't possible, so they gave me the item and a bonus soda. I appreciate the attempt to make up for it, but it just isn't enough. Why am I forced to buy something I didn't want? It also didn't even taste good. I can understand making a mistake every once in a while, but this is excessive. I won't be coming back to eat here again, and I can't recommend this place to anyone.

First off the name was misleading because I was literally thinking it would be a food court setting…read morebut it is a restaurant, mind you not fancy, but still with wait service. The waitstaff were attentive and helpful. Only complaint about the setting is that every time someone went in or out, a rush of cold air would enter. Try not to sit too close to the door. As far as the food, daughter and I just ordered soon dubu (soft tofu stew) and ddukbokki (spicy rice cakes). We're Korean so flavor profile wise, it seemed to cater to non Korean palates. The soon dubu was not spicy and had too much of a sesame oil flavor and the ddukbokki was sweet with no spiciness at all. I think if you are non Korean, the seasoning was good and the food flavorful, just not the flavors we were expecting. Also, although the menu makes it seem like you have to pay for the banchan (appetizers), we did not, it came with the staple kimchee, and a couple other dishes. Not sure why they had prices on the menu unless they charge for refills? They also gave us this yummy ice cream bite for dessert which is usually unheard of in Korean restaurants. Having said all this, I do want to recommend this place, it was a nice local restaurant to get some Asian dishes with a great waitstaff.

Love going to Cast Iron Pot, but was getting tired of hauling out to the Signature past Fort Lee…read more So I was pleasantly surprised to find one closer to me in SI! Service was prompt-- we were seated almost immediately once our whole group was gathered, and immediately began to be served. Meats came out fast. They have a 3 meat at a time limit here, but given that they're doing most of the cooking for you, it helps keep things fresh and things are coming off the grill pretty quickly anyways, so the limit does not really come at the cost of velocity of consumption (if you're that kind of AYCE eater). Service here is pretty proactive, coming by regularly and taking orders promptly. We got a mix of meats and sides throughout. Pork belly is a winner, both slabs and slices. Beef intestines were not as we remembered from other locations, but nonetheless good. Sliced beef brisket and jowl are also good cuts for folks looking for something new. Not too much of a fan of marinated meets, but I'm sure they'd live up to the same level of quality too. One huge plus about this particular chain (for which you do pay a bit of a premium in the price) is that they have pretty amazingly efficient grills and vents, such that you can largely avoid smelling like your AYCE KBBQ afterwards. Pretty uncommon, and totally forgivable when it happens, but a nice plus for this place!
