    Ice cream and popsicles
    Rachel N.

    From the outside, this place looks nice! The streamers and signs were up to celebrate their grand opening. For a Friday night, the wait was 20-30 minutes for 2 people which I found to be pretty good. We went with just the KBBQ option. 7/16-7/22, there's a deal for 20% off all day dinner. At first glance, the grills seemed new. The tables themselves don't look very clean. They also have a buffet section which was not clean. On their website, they advertise corn cheese but we didn't find any there. In fact, the only "appetizer" I saw on the iPad was rice. No steamed eggs or salad as well which is frequent at similar restaurants. Don't get me wrong, they have vegetables but they don't provide kimchi, pickled radish, cucumbers, or anything of the like that I'm accustomed to with a traditional kbbq spot. The buffet section's layout was weird. In the back from left to right, you have one section for sides (wings, dumplings, snow crab legs, corn on the cob, etc..), one section for drinks/ fruit (lychee drink, passion fruit drink, watermelon, etc...), one section for desserts (cubed cakes: chocolate, coconut lemon, etc..), and one section for all the sauces. Every section was missing food, was dirty with sauces or crumbs spilling out, or were missing plates/cups so I couldn't even serve myself. Oh and in the middle of these sections is a freezer with thinly sliced lamb, beef, etc.. for you to self serve which seemed odd to me when there's an option for other meats through the iPad. The freezer also had popsicles and strawberry and vanilla ice cream cups. I was surprised to not see chocolate. Rocket bomb pops were there which was nostalgic! The sides had crispy wings and dumplings. The corn was small but was very juicy and tasty! I have to say, though, all the "warm" buffet foods were rather cold. The fruit/ drink section was random in my opinion. The drinks seemed watered down or just on the lighter side with sugar. Desserts were small and okay. They weren't dry. They were just kinda there. Looks like this place is either missing plates/cups or they're figuring out their sauce system. When I first got sauce, it was a plate with 3 sections so I got multiple. When I went back for a 2nd time, there were just bowls. The sauce section is so messy and a nightmare tbh. The meats that were the most flavorful in my opinion: spicy bulgogi, spicy pork belly, galbi, wagyu. I kept reordering the spicy bulgogi. Their portions are quite small. The wagyu is extra $$$. A staff member dropped it off at our table. I told the waitress that I didn't know what it was because we didn't order it! Our waitress explained what it was and told us to enjoy it, no extra charge. The meats that were mid: pork belly & garlic brisket. The garlic brisket was so mid. Too chewy. The pork belly lacked flavor. The meats that we would not order again: Beef tongue, rib eye. Both had a gamey, metallic flavor. Neither of these cuts are supposed to taste like that which is incredibly strange. The iPad: unsure if there was a stand option. But I don't think there was. There is a strap for your hand but I thought it was annoying to keep going from one thing to another. The staff was attentive!!! They were on it with timing. Our server got us extra napkins and refilled our drinks when necessary. Finally, the fire alarm went off near the end of our dinner. Staff reassured us that there wasn't actually a fire. I guess it got set off by accident. The firetruck did show up. Overall, I would be hesitant to come back to try their hotpot just because things were not as clean or uniform. Their KBBQ experience was not unique. In fact, I think they have missed some of the basics.

    I will give them another try and update my review when I am able to get back out there…read more.. I was super excited to try this restaurant after hearing good things and there just aren't many Korean food places around me. I was told this would be authentic Korean food and I couldn't wait, as I'm Korean and miss my grandma's traditional food! We arrived around 4:45pm and the hours listed say 6pm. We went to go sit down so we could look through the menu before ordering and were told it's take out only. This was a major bummer and some of the things we wanted to order would have been difficult to eat in the car. It was also 80 degrees out and I live about 35-40 minutes from here. We still ordered cause we wanted to try it and were hungry. The food came out fast and we were also given 2 small containers of cucumber kimchi! I ordered the tofu bibimbap and I'm sorry to say it had zero flavor. If you are looking to just make it spicy, they do give you a container of spicy sauce to put on it. My friend ordered the bulgogi with rice and Ttokbokki. The Ttokbokki were delicious and were the perfect level of spicy! The bulgogi was also very good, but next time we might try the spicy bulgogi! Overall, I would give it a try.

The restaurant was soooo cold so I'm not sure if they just purposely dont turn on the heat since the hot pot/korean bbq will be sure to keep you toasty. For the table we got the hot pot and the korean bbq options. For Korean bbq we got the beef bulgogi, galbi, garlic shrimp, squid and onions. They brought a decent amount of all of them to the table. For hot pot we ordered two broths per family. I got the pork bone broth that was very light in flavor. For hot pot items you have to walk up and gather your own meats, veggies, noodles etc. On the other side there a small sauce/seasoning bar, dessert bar and an ice cream area. Other all the korean bbq meats were pretty good! The garlic shrimp had the best seasoning. The cut of the galibi was a bit fatty but still pretty good. They were really good at changing the grill ever so often. The hot pot items were great additions to the broth. The staff was also nice. Overall a good spot to meet up with some friends. The price point I thought was expensive (2 people for both hotpot/korean bbq on a Saturday was $100+ with tip) but it was still fun and we left with very full tummys.

This past Friday it was really chilly and my work colleague wanted some hot tofu soup. Not to mention this is one of the best Korean Pocha spots in the city, with a 70-80's retro street vibe features traditional Korean cuisine, Korean BBQ & other specialties. The wait staff was really nice and inviting. They were very knowledgeable about the various food options. It was really cool to hear catchy K-pop songs playing as week. The food is fire hands down. I went ahead and got the Teriyaki mayonnaise Cup Bap( rice bowl topped with the korean fried chicken, teriyaki sauce and mayo). So delicious, my friend got he soft tofu soup with seafood and we split a hot sake to share. I am still mad at myself that I have not come here sooner, I will definitely be back. Their fried rice dishes look amazing. I also love the price point here as well. For both of us it was $40 bucks. So if your in the station north area, please stop in. You wont be dissapointed SYOY

Chicken was fried to perfection, serving size was huge, and loved the sweet and spicy flavors. My daughter got their kimchi soup with dumplings and I loved how they seasoned it, gave me comfort food vibes. Came here Friday evening around 6 and they were not busy, but saw plenty of folks picking up food. We were seated right away and our orders were taken quickly. Maybe because there weren't a lot of dine in customers. The whole vibe of this place feels like a late night bar. The only drawback to this place is its location, but if you don't mind the graffiti...definitely worth a try if you want some good Korean food. Full disclosure, this place isn't in the best part of town. The neighborhood leaves much to be desired. I think next time we'll order take out.

That said, this is a place where you cook meats on grills in the table. You can order specific items but the unlimited options are the best way to go. All of the meats were EXCELLENT!
