We had an incredible dining experience here! The food was exceptionally delicious and cooked to perfection, but what truly blew us away was the outstanding service.
A huge shoutout to our servers—the lovely female staff member wearing a mask and the friendly male staff member with curly hair. They were attentive, professional, and took great care of us by expertly grilling every single item at our table from start to finish. Their warm hospitality and top-tier service standards truly exceeded our expectations.
Phenomenal food, amazing atmosphere, and world-class service. We couldn't have asked for a better meal. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be coming back!
This was my first time dining here, and it was fabulous! Both the service and the food were exceptional.
We decided to go at the last minute, so we didn’t have a reservation, which you can make through Resy. Jenny, the hostess, was so sweet and was able to get us seated right away. My friend was awestruck by all the autographs from various artists displayed.
The restaurant was lively with people chatting and K-pop playing, but it was nowhere near too noisy. Our table was already set with a variety of banchan: white kimchi, buchu, Korean sweet potato, salad, onion with mustard dressing, garlic and scallions, plus salt and sauces served in individual ramekins for each of us.
Andy was incredibly helpful navigating the menu and making recs. I’ve never had a server as attentive as Andy. The moment one of our banchan ran low, he was replacing it with a fresh serving (banchan refills are unlimited). He even brought me ssamjang and red kimchi before I had to ask for them. The choices were overwhelming, but with his expert guidance, we settled on a Beef Combo and a japchae appetizer.
The japchae was delicious and so flavorful. The vegetables tasted as though they’d been grilled to perfection over charcoal. So good.
When our meats arrived, Andy and Martin cooked them to perfection on the grill at our table. The show was gas. Martin also made sure to let us know when the meat was done so we could dig in (nom nom nom). He even recommended a soju that paired perfectly with the meats we ordered. I felt so pampered.
I’m convinced that all the reviews claiming the meats are tasteless or low-quality come from people who don’t know how to appreciate authentic Korean BBQ. The meats are incredibly flavorful on their own, but you’re also served salt, various sauces, garlic, and scallions on the side so you can customize each bite to your taste.
Pro tip from Martin: Mix the garlic and scallions into the sauce, dip your meat in it, then dip it in a little salt before digging in. SO GOOD! The marinated meat was perfect on its own or with the dipping sauce.
We were so full and content - and 10lbs heavier - by the time we left. Split between my friend and me, the bill came to ~$50 each. The amount of food felt comparable to an AYCE Korean BBQ, except with better-quality meat and service that was better than fine dining.
