2020: So good! $28.95 BBQ formula without SHABU for an adult and a Friday evening. Great service and fast.2024: the price has increased but still as good. $30.95 per adult for Menu B. We didn't know but the starters are self-service. My wife likes LA marinated Short RIB, for me Black Angus beef bulgoggi. ‼️Book on Yelp so as not to wait, especially on weekends. Or go early ‼️

I honestly don’t know who would come here to dine. The server has so much attitude, we got our hands raised for vey long then someone FINALLY saw us and came to help. The buffet bar veggies are not fresh, the green onion is dry, the pumpkin as well.Even saw a fly flying over the food and landed on the glass noodles. This makes me sick.Finally, we decided to take the check, we don’t have our cards on us, we thought Apple Pay would do. But then the waitress said they only accept cash or card, and we said we don’t have them with us, can we do Venmo or other Zelle? She ignores us again. Didn’t even look at us and check with manager or anything, she just minding her own business, me and my bf were just standing there awkwardly and didn’t know what to do.Would never return, this place sucks.

came here in a tuesday night with my family, the food was so flavorful. i got the short ribs and the bulgogi. the buffet had so many different options. and not to mention the servers were so friendly and were always there to attend us. would definitely come here again. if you’re looking for a good korean bbq/shabu restaurant this is the place.

I just moved to Orange County and didn't know much about restaurants, so I went there and it was the worst in the world.Koreans will never go there. The plates are dirty, the egg custard is cold and not seasoned, and the taste of Dongchimi noodles is like the taste of a rag for the first time. The meat is tough, the thinly sliced pork belly is smelly, and the prime ube is the best, but greasy. I will never eat here again. It's the worst. It's not even worth ten dollars.

First time trying this place. I like that they had a reservation system. We went inside when I got my text that the table was ready. It was not at all busy for a Sunday evening. But there was no host or hostess anywhere. Waited for 5 more mins and no one ever came to greet us. Eventually I had to walk up to a server and was told to wait up front and a hostess would help us in a second. We waited 5 more minutes before finally getting seated.Our waitress was Giselle was terribly inattentive and was slamming plates and bowls on the table. When she cleared the empty plates from our table, she spilled a bunch of marinade on the table and never apologized. She even looked like she was upset at us the whole time. She rarely checked on us. Some other server named Day (maybe Dan?) eventually came to help us because I kept having to raise my hand to get anybody's attention. Day was helpful and happy and definitely was better at his job.18% gratuity was automatically added to our bill because we were a party of 6 but they definitely did not deserve that. Hopefully some of that tip went to Day. But the other servers were inattentive. Servers don't check on you.They're either hanging out by the registers, hanging out in the kitchen, or texting on their phones. And there's a robot delivering plates to the farther tables so the servers won't have to. The table next to us left and the table was never cleaned or cleared for like 30 minutes. Ridiculous. I would not have tipped them that much.

We went here for Korean bbq with friends. They are lots of people. The food is very good with a lot of choices. The meats are very fresh and I like the grilled mershmello. The service is also appreciated. I will definitely come back

Really like this Korean bbq restaurant. We took the B menu. The meat is very fresh, i highly recommend the Short ribs and beef tongue. They also have a variety of dishes, the steamed egg is pretty smooth and the soup has a lot of flavors, not like in other all you can eat restaurant. The service is also very good, special thanks to the very kind Javier!
Greats KBBQ. This is my new spot to go to when craving KBBQ. My favorite is bulgogi but you cannot go wrong with any meat. Highly recommend!

Want to start by saying how the staff was so amazing. Our waitress was on point with everything. Loved how the sides were all at the bar so you don't have to hassle the already busy wait staff. Majority of the meat we got was good. Would recommend

Bethany took care of us and made sure we got our food in a timely manner. The concept of the buffet is great, unlike other kbbq places where you have to wait for your sides.

Servers were friendly, they kept the meats coming as long as we could eat them. I recommend a reservation for less chaos, and you are probably better off eating a little bit earlier in the night. Great quality meats, and I found the staff to be friendly. Definitely hoping to come back the next time I am in the area!
