I would also say the same for the jajangmyeon, but a downside is the portion size. I've had the same server every single time I've come here and he's always respectful and nice. The floors were kind of "sticky" which can be fixed by some more thorough cleaning but other than that, the restaurant is really nice. I really need to try their kbbq, but it is pretty pricey and I wouldn't go other than for a special event. I would definitely go during the weekday for their lunch special.

Stopped by Kimchi Korean Restaurant in Lafayette and had a great meal. We ordered the M4 Kimchi…read moreDuruchigi, spicy beef stew, dumplings, and chicken yaki udon. The kimchi duruchigi was probably my favorite -- the pork was tender and really flavorful, and the kimchi added a nice spicy, tangy kick. The spicy beef stew was comforting and hearty. The dumplings were crispy on the outside and juicy inside, and the chicken yaki udon had great flavor with perfectly chewy noodles. Everything came out hot and the portions were generous. Definitely a solid spot in Lafayette if you're craving Korean food.

The basic, Nutella, Hot Cheeto, and my sweet potato were all crazy tasty and too easy to eat. We even thought about going again later for a midnight meal. It is a smart setup, both cash with the human or card at the screen to order. Parking is a problem with all the construction. I recommend parking back in the big lot near Buffalo Wild Wings. Hope to see more menu options show up soon, treat gluten free, offer pressure cooked nutrient conscious, and show off more veggies in the batter. Kuma is one of the places I'll recommend to all!

There are carnival type games and other distractions to pass the time. When seated your table has a large stove surface in the middle where you will either be doing BBQ or hot pot cooking. The menu is straightforward and easy to choose your option. The whole table has to choose the same option (BBQ or hot pot) so discussion might be helpful before the waiter arrives. Then you choose your meat and broth type and head to the never ending salad and veggie area. It has veggies, noodles, sauces, toppings and more! The waiter tells you em several times it is all you can eat, thus the higher price point. Make sure to note too though that if you order a lot more than you eat you will get charged a few for leftovers. They want to curb food waste which is commendable. I suggest starting small and then building as for sure you get full rather quickly! My favorite aspect was the sauce area where they listed sauce combos the recommend. It helped me a lot to have some guidance and I liked the sauce I chose from their list. A fun interactive experience and good for groups. It is loud and smelly as you are basically sitting inside a large kitchen. But a fun experience and yummy food so worth a visit!

Now to the food and service. The food was just ok. We did the bbq grill vs the hot pot. We had garlic chicken (so garlicky that I felt like I ate a pot of garlic), beef Bulgogi, K-Town chicken. The meat took a while to cook and the grill was very dry. It was a little overwhelming being a first timer as I wasn't sure the salad bar area and how to make the sauce. I made one of the recipes garlic sauce and it was really good but I over poured a few of the ingredients . Would have liked the server to be more willing to explain the experience for a first timer. I probably wouldn't go back as I felt for lunch the price was too Much. I went on a weekend so we paid dinner price at 12pm. Overall, food was just ok.
