I believe it’s the only good Korean BBQ in town. It’s all-you-can-eat with two price tiers. The price got significantly more expensive compared to a few years ago, but if you are hungry, I’d say it’s still worth it! Very good selection of meat and great service. The wait can be quite long when you arrive during busy hours and/or have a large party, so be sure to arrive early! They have a parking lot in the backyard, and some free street parking spaces in front and on nearby streets. The atmosphere might not be perfect to some people as it can be a bit crowded and noisy, so make you don’t mind that too much.Parking: They have a free parking lot in the backyard. If it’s full, just drive along the street where they are usually plenty of street parking spots.

I’d give this place 5 stars if they just turned the music down a little bit.

Been coming here for a few years. At one point once or twice a week. I've had about everything you can get on the menu. It's all very good! If you are looking for a quality KBBQ spot because you miss the one back home, this is the one! Shoutout to Fernando! The best host you could ever ask for!

$239 for 6 people, totally not with it. Loud Vagas music, few vegetables, poor quality meat.

Great quality food and good music that makes you want to eat more! The people were so nice and the service was quick. Great use of contactless ordering too.

I order garlic chicken, spicy pork billy and veggies and my boyfriend order 2 different kind of beef. The server or maybe owner she got my order and after she bring our order to the table she pour all the meat in the hot stove and stir with the chopsticks we was stunted it seem like she play with our food and the meat each place so much we can't order different kind more because if we not finish we will get charge $10 each place. I guess the owner was change since Covid. I'm not going back there anymore.

I've been spoiled living in L.A. and having a different Korean BBQ experience. This was my first time as their customer.Pro: 1. Atmosphere. Nice artwork and the house music playing was dope. It's a small place, but the good use of space made it feel cozy instead of sardined. 2. Service was FAST and mostly friendly.3. Using tech to get seated and order and pay is always great. 4. The bill was less than I'd paid elsewhere.Con:1. Service was speed over accuracy. Ordered 3 drinks and only got 2 for most of the meal until I had to tell them. The staff was friendly but one waitress was in a rush for us to eat. It was the first time for two of my very picky friends eating Korean BBQ, and they were taking it slow. She agitatedly mumbled something and dumped all the meat onto the hot plate without asking. We had just tried it and were about to cook the shrimp already on the table. She did this a few times. 2. The items on the premium menu are okay, but some of the meat wasn't seasoned.3. I've never been to a hot plate before. To me, BBQ is done over flame instead of fried. I'd pay a little more for a fire pit dinner. If they replaced the hot plates, it'd elevate the experience and more money in their pockets.4. Website needs a UX design overhaul. It was cumbersome to navigate.Will I be back? Possibly, but likely not more than once or twice a year. More if they made it fire.

This place is freaking tight! A bit small but their meat is grade A baby! No joke! The waygu is insanely good and they got it here. Cool vibe and music. My new spot when in santa barbara.
This was my first time here. You kind of have to know what you're doing with the grill/stove. I thought the food was pretty good, although I did have a little gut bomb afterwards. The service was decent, but she didn't listen when we asked for the next round of meat to wait and be put on slowly not all at once since it was chicken. I get a little squeamish about undercooked chicken so it kind of ruined the experience a bit. I won't hold it against them though, the vibe is cool with the neon lights. I'd go back. On the same strip as the thai place, uptown and tiburonParking: Lots of street parking both sides of the street

We came back after a while discounting. Seems their ownership is changed. Food is still good. I love that they have beef tongue and seafood items on the menu options. We will be back soon!

Try the beef belly. Literally melt in your mouth. I think I melted more than the beef did.

Manager Joen! Thanks to the service, I was satisfied with the meat selection. The vegetables that came out with the side dishes went well with the unlimited meat service. Thank you for making Korean food feel ideal in Santa Barbara. And the webfoot octopus we ate at the end is really delicious!!!♡
