Chung Ki Wa is a Korean BBQ restaurant that offers both à la carte and all-you-can-eat options. The à la carte menu has received praise for its delicious and high-quality dishes, particularly the interesting banchan (side dishes) and generous portion sizes. However, the BBQ buffet has been criticized for its inconsistent quality. The restaurant also offers side dishes of lettuce for an additional cost during the buffet, which has been considered unnecessary.
The service has received mixed reviews, with some customers praising the staff for their attentiveness, while others have criticized them for being understaffed and providing slow service. The restaurant also charges a mandatory 18% "group charge" for parties of five or more, which has caused frustration for some customers.
The restaurant's prices are on the higher side, but many customers agree that the food is delicious and worth the cost. The menu offers a variety of options, including potstickers, seafood pancakes, and a #1 combo. However, there have been issues with undercooked dishes, such as the seafood pancake. Overall, Chung Ki Wa is a decent option for Korean BBQ, but there is room for improvement in terms of service and consistency.
