    I can't believe how lucky we are here in Dayton to have fresh kimbap daily, as well as homemade bulgogi and Korean side dishes.

    Walking through the door and I was hit with a nearly Pavlovian response from the incredible smells of Bulgogi and Gimbap.

Well, not my mum since she wasn't Korean, but maybe a friend's mum…read more Since Ashley/Ae Sook's second business is in her grocery store, it's easy to get fresh ingredients. She cooks the same things for us that she cooks for herself. Today, I had a hunger for bi bim bop, but she removed that from the menu. Instead, I got chop chae/jap chae and she added what we would call side items in a restaurant. She also poured some soup since I was the last one eating before close. The soup was okay but it probably would have tasted better if I had eaten it first. The mix of the jap chae and kim chi threw it off. In any case, I enjoyed it as much for the taste as it felt like eating at someone's house. There wasn't a thought of "this is restaurant food". It wasn't. It was home-cooked food. Sure, we've all been to a house where someone couldn't cook, but this wasn't the case. It was consistent with Korean restaurants all over the U.S.A. That's awesome considering there was no fancy menu, no fancy table, and some really down-to-earth conversation, as though you were with relatives.

The bulgogi was the worst I've ever had in my life. I pulled a bottle of Chilsung out of the fridge and paid $1.89 for it and it was FLAT!!! Selection of grocery items was decent. Ashley is very nice so 1 extra star for service.

The sleek, modern décor makes it feel both stylish and inviting. Since it's still new, it was quite busy with plenty of people eager to check it out. We expected a wait, and sure enough, there was one. The only downside is that the front area isn't designed for waiting -- there's just a small bench and not much space to stand without being in the way. The staff, however, were attentive and worked quickly to seat everyone. We were initially told the wait would be 45 minutes and were about to leave, but as we turned to go, they let us know it had dropped to 20-30 minutes, so we decided to stay. Right before being seated, we learned that everyone at the table needs to choose either the Kpot or BBQ option. We weren't familiar with how it worked, so we went with BBQ. Once seated, it felt a bit overwhelming at first -- the booths are very large! I'm on the shorter side, so I found it a little difficult to get comfortable since I had to lean forward quite a bit to reach the table. The food itself was okay -- tasty to me but not outstanding -- I think I just got impatient with the grilling. The prices were on the higher side. Still, the overall experience was exciting and fun. It's definitely a great place to go with a group if you're looking for something lively and different.

KPOT Korean BBQ & Hot Pot offers an "all-you-can-eat" dining experience in which customers cook their own food at the table. Guests can choose between Korean BBQ, hot pot, or both, and then order a variety of raw meats, seafood, vegetables, and noodles via iPad. Standing buffet seems sparse, and do rely on ipad and servers to bring a variety of noodles, veggies, rice, broths, meats, and seafood to your table for cooking. Tanya was our very informed server who talked very fast, but learn by experience was our task. Nicely remolded property which permitted a few parent with screaming children to cause us regret at selecting a lunch. Kpot has the potential of being a nice date night location - depends on screaming children who are in attendance. Travel tip, there is another Asian buffet on Kingsridge Drive. We like the newness of the property, the menu, the service, the food, and the overall experience. Kpot seems to be doing a thriving business, and this is a small chain.
