Excellent Korean BBQ location in KTown. Bar area is very crowded as you wait for a table, but we were able to get a drink while we were there. Dined on the third floor and walked by the beautifully decorated flower staircase. Service was great considering how busy it was. Fantastic quality of meats and side dishes.

It was great awesome so much food for a good price we were 4 people and we had 3 sides and the love set A. I recommend the kimchi fries absolutely delicious. Our waiter was also very nice and friendly. The vibe was great and it wasn't so packed food also came right away.

Just was an experience. The staff always attentive and polite and just warm and kind. The food was amazing. The charred saltiness of the beef was balanced with the savory sauces. It was a total experience , theatre for eating. The tastes the smells the textures and the orchestration of the grilling at the table.

Before I get to the food, let me tell you about the staff.
They were extremely welcoming, attentive, and friendly. We were a group of 8 and tip was already included in the check, however we didn't know that. As a result, we added a tip to the check.
As we were walking out of the restaurant, the waitress stopped us and alerted us that an extra tip wasn't necessary. They then removed it from the bill. How thoughtful was that??
Now the food. Meat! Meat! Oh the delicious meat!!!! The food was very fresh and the customary Korean BBQ sides were delightful. Our waiter Shawn was very helpful in providing suggestions.
Pro-tip: For a large group, I definitely recommend starting off with the beef for two AND the pork for two. Then add on from there

I had to order takeout from this place which I am a little bit sad about because I’ve heard such great things about the actual restaurant and would much have preferred to go in person. But the food was worth raving about and it definitely did not lack in the delivery department. Everything was packaged really nicely and sustainable Tupperware which I thought was a great touch. Everything arrived with no spillage and you could tell that they packed the food was packaged with care. It was so much food ultimately that we had to save it in the hotel fridge for another meal but it was definitely worth it and I would highly recommend getting delivery from this if you can’t get a seat or if you can’t make it out there in person. Highly recommend!

Had a lovely time with my friend, first time I had the cooked for me which was fabulous! I enjoyed everything we ordered including short ribs not pictured. This place is packed all night long so definitely make a reservation. The service was very good as well.

Solid Korean BBQ experience in a cozy atmosphere and with terrific service.
I came here for a birthday celebration, and was not disappointed. The food was terrific; the quality is the meat was very good, and all of the side dishes were prepared well.
I was particularly impressed by the atmosphere — you are greeted by a walking cow when you first arrive, and you can find yourself walking through a tunnel of roses as you get to your table. The servers are all very helpful, and ensured that our experience was as enjoyable as possible.
Only downside is the pricing of the menu — there are a significant number of Korean BBQ places nearby, and I feel that I could have had better value elsewhere. That being said, although it was on the expensive side, I feel that this place would still be a good option to celebrate special occasions.

If I could give this place 10 stars I would! The place is gorgeous inside and out and The food was incredible!! so well seasoned. We had reservations and were seated fairly quickly our waitress Joy made some amazing suggestions was so attentive and kind And Brian was THE BEST! Thank you guys for making my birthday awesome! The lava lamp drink was so good and so fun to look at. We had the dumplings, the wings (both flavors) and the modeum so gui(platter for 2) this place is worth every penny. Everyone was so nice I highly recommend and I for a fact will be returning.

Delicious Korean bbq with great ambiance and solid service. They have a variety of different meats to choose from and plenty of drinks.
Would recommend for big groups, just make reservation ahead of time.

The service was very good, but it’s relatively expensive to dine here and there is a 1 hour limit, so you better eat fast. Then side dishes were tasty. The servers can cook the food for you, I wasn’t sure what the etiquette of the place was supposed to be.
We ordered lamb chops (which I never had before) and kalbi. Both were great, but it felt rushed due to the 1 hour time limit.
My SOs friend says they have the fluffiest rice here, so we’ll have to try that next time.
