The majority of the meat we got was very dry and the service was horrible. I would not recommend this place.

I dined solo and my bill was over $60 for AYCE and some drinks. The restaurant apparently charges a $5 fee for solo customers, which is insane. I asked if it could be waived and they said no. $5 on the $33 AYCE price is like a 15% fee because I'm eating alone. That's stupid, and I won't be returning.

Two of our party wanted al la cart instead of AYCE since they had small appetites. They wouldn't allow us to sit at tables where we could see and still talk to one another. The gap between the tables was wide enough that if we were going to "try and share the AYCE food", we would have had to get up from one table and walk over to the other. It would've been very obvious if we tried. As such, there was no reason we couldn't be sat in a way that I could converse with the friends I drove over 3 hours to see. I've been to plenty of AYCE places and have never had this issue. Including places that allowed our a la cart person to sit at the same table. Don't recommend if you have a member with a small appetite.

So we had dinner at this place on 1/14, we did the AYCE Korean BBQ. For a family of 5 we spend about $200 not bad giving service and atmosphere but quickly realized that cheap comes at a price. About 3 hrs after eating there we notice my whole family got food poisoning after eating there, my whole family and I had to go to the hospital due to our symptoms getting worse so quickly. The dr. at the ER told us we got food poisoning pretty badly and no joke, we had been vomiting for 4 hrs non stop. 24 hr plus later we still have stomachaches, headaches and symptoms of food poisoning. Be aware of where you dine!!!

I had high hopes for this Korean BBQ. It was only ok. There were only 3 sides and the staff didn't seem to know much about the food. The space is large with loud TVs. The food was only ok. Pro Tip- Bring a lot of friends just for the fun of a Korean BBQ.

We did all you can eat, it was okay. Nothing really special. There were only like 4 sides. The service was really slow, after our first round of all you can eat we waited about 20 minutes to order again, this happened twice. I would understand if they were busy, but 2/3 of the restaurant was empty, I almost felt like our server just kept forgetting about us until we eventually flagged him down. He also kept forgetting what we were ordering since he never put it in his tablet or wrote it down. But overall it’s not the worst or best I’ve had. Not worth the trip in my opinion, unless you have 2 hours on your hands for mediocre food.

We went for dinner around 9.20pm. We were greeted and were informed that the barbeque menu was closed and we could only order entree dishes since the kitchen closes by 9.30pm. Being left with limited choices , we ordered and the food was served quickly. Food was amazing and service too. I would definitely visit again but much earlier in the evening.

The food is good. We often go there for the Korean Bibimbap. But the service was bad, they didn't bring the drink or add any water until we called the staff to cancel it. At that time, we nearly finished our food•••and the staff was playing her phone behind a pillar, forgot our drinks. So, no tips.

Excellent all you can eat Korean bbq. As someone who is a Korean speaker and lived in Korea when I was younger I can say everything was legit. Great quality meats and delicious fresh kimchi. Great price for the all you can eat. Make sure to ask for the Samjang sauce to dip your meats in. ?

The meat quality here beats any other all you can eat BBQ places I've visited. Great to have this restaurant near my neighborhood. As a Korean, I highly recommend trying their spicy miso stew. It's incredibly homey and delicious. Their steamed egg is a must-order. I don't recommend soon tofu, which is a bit too healthy-tasting for my preference. Definitely give their fried calamari and popcorn chicken a try.Parking: Very big free mall parking lot
