“This is a KBBQ place specializing in pork. They offer a small selection of lunch deals that allow you to sample what they offer on their larger ala carte menu. Their banchan are not super varied but all go well with meat. The restaurant space goes in deep and has plenty of air vents for grilling. It's a good place to go share a grill with friends or coworkers after work.”
“Absolutely amazing food and service. Went here with little notice and walked in to Korean BBQ heaven. Brilliant food cooked in front of you, with unimpeachable service. Kinda funky decor with a good and cheerful crowd of a range of ages. Really enjoyed it, will be a go to spot again.”
“It's delicious! The meat is aged meat, and it was soft and grilled by staff, so I was able to eat it comfortably. The service is good and the noodles are all delicious. Please come out and eat after seeing the Summit Observatory. I'm sure it'll be a great dinner!!”
“Great place for Korean Bbq. They mainly serve pork options, but they do have one beef option. Something very unique about this place is the chairs you sit on are like ottomans and open up to put your things inside so your coats and purse don’t smell like the bbq. They have lots of delicious side dishes and good soups/stews, as well. The service and staff is so kind and attentive and we enjoyed our time there.”
“LOVE this cozy and kind of hidden Korean BBQ place. Delicious food, amazing service and great atmosphere. We were very satisfied and full after this meal. 👍”
