One of my favorite late night go-to places. The package choices are the way to go. The meat is plentiful and the fact that they cook for you means you can sit back and just enjoy the food and cold beer and soju with your friends. I always opt for the Kimchi Fried Rice after to mix with the leftover meat. Excellent for breakfast the next day. Parking sucks but you can park on the street if needed.

Way over priced, requires you to buy way more food than you need. Some items requires you to order 2 dishes from the same dish which is ridiculous. No i don't recommend this location unless they change their bad habits.....

Did the 3rd combo option for 3 serving. Honestly, it is just enough for two.

Don't come here, racial discrimination➕The credit card was stolen for more than $1500 and it cannot be recovered. If you are not Korean you will only get shabby service.don't come, racism and credit card skimming more than $1500 and can't get back the money.

Parking: Parking might be hard to come by in the lot, some of the spaces are for the adjacent stores only. You can park in the neighborhood corner, and walk over. Your stomach will thank you for the short walk after a full delicious meal ☺️

This place is not what it used to be.Came here last year, super amazed - great meat quality, perfectly grilled. This time, it was WAY OVERCOOKED. There weren't enough server, and I am pretty sure they were not keeping tracking of time, but rather only coming over whenever they are free to flip and cut the meat. Even the bibimbap did not taste as good somehow.Meat quality is still okay, but I recommend hiring more people or training them better.

Meats were mediocre with very high prices. Service was mediocre yet the server forced us to pay an 18% tip. See all the other reviews about forced tipping here. Won’t be coming back here.

I give One star because the lowest is one star,mandatory tip 18％ for 5 people??? Mandatory One person for one meat? never come again.
Food: Decent meat quality and good banchan. The steamed egg and soup were very mediocre. The full set for 3 people comes with a single bottle of beer. I think it was pretty expensive for the price (spent $200 for 3 people, inclusive of tip).Service: The owner is awesome; no fuss kind of service where they cook the meats for you. Pretty quick service; on a Friday night, we only waited around 10 min for 3 peopleAmbience: Love the party / fun vibes!Parking: Limited parking - there’s a number of small restaurants here, but a small parking lot

Refuse to let us order 3 servings combo to start with because we have 5 people. When we told the lady that one of us is at eating, she just come to chat with us, she let us order the 4 serving one. They do cook the meat for us, but literally can't move or eat because they are in the way when they cook. I don't know where the 5 five stars reviews coming from. None of us enjoy the meal. The food was okay, but no worthy enough to pay 184.99 for that 4 serving combo. All of us are not even half full, but it cost too much to continue. When we are ready for the check, the lady told us that it is required to pay 18% tip for 5 people. Which is not even by the law. After just got up from the table, the lady are already rush to the table to check if we tip them 18%. I am pretty sure if we don't do 18%, they won't let us leave. btw, that is the funniest bowl I ever see in a restaurant. Even my cat bowl looks better than that. Enjoy ur meal, and u will found out what I said are somehow true.

This is a very small restaurant that is very busy. The dining area is tight and overcrowded. While we ate, the servers bumped into me several times without apologizing. The serving bowls are similar to what animals would eat out of and the water was dispensed from plastic bottles that resembled a gym water bottle. The raw meat was cooked and served with the same tongs. The price was $43 per person for our group of 8 people. Parking is lousy as well. The small parking lot, which also has an adult sex store and liquor store, had only a few spaces available. You will need to park a block away in the residential neighborhood and walk.

I really do like this place because the workers are nice and the side dishes are a lot better than other kbbq prices & they have great combos to choose from The reason why I'm giving a 2 star is because the server required us to tip her more than we intended to . She REQUIRED us to leave $35 tip for a party of 2 . I told her I'm a server and usually servers arnt suppose to ask for more TIP . People at my restaurant leave $0 tips ALL THE TIME & I don't go telling them "you're suppose to tip this much" it's rude & disrespectful . TIPPING should be like a gift , not a requirement . that really turned the whole experience sour for me.

Amazingly staffed Korean restaurant that cooks your food for you on your table. We came in, but we had no reservation. Their restaurant is unique in that you order in the front and once you order and sit down, they bring everything out. I mean everything! They give you all the starters at once. We ordered the pork belly + Brisket combo and it came with the boiled egg and the tofu soup (not soondubu). The tofu soup is less thick and like a diluted version of soondubu but i think its called something totally different. They also brought the ban chan immediately along with our yogurt soju. The yogurt soju came with a light at the bottom so the bottle glows green! The banchan includes a lot such as rice paper, radish, kimchi, fish cake, salad, etc.We also got the additional kimchi fried rice that they make for you. The meat was cooked well and the servers let you know when the meats are ready so they encourage you to eat. They make sure to serve you well and filled up our kimchi fried rice bowls when they were out. They played popular korean music inside and had photos of jenny from blackpink everywhere with the soju bottles. Parking SUCKS HOWEVER so we parked in the neighborhood next to the restaurant and walked inside. highly recommend gooyi gooyi!
