This place is fantabulous. Not only is the decor really nice and earthy, (literally the walls are covered with faux-rocks) but the tables are comfortably set up for BBQ. For anyone who's never had Korean BBQ, it's a great time. You literally have these mini BBQs set up at your table where you grill your own meats. Don't worry, you are not responsible for watching it or knowing how to properly cook the meat or handle your BBQ--- the waiters will frequently come by to turn the meat for you. Once you order your meal, the waiters will come and cover your table with tapas-like dishes of kimchi and radish and all sorts of dressed and pickled things that you can either snack on or wrap up with your beef. I never actually know what everything is, but it's all worth a try. All the veggies, pickles, and tofu have such a unique and delicious flavor.
I've been to a few korean bbq places before, but this one is probably the best. I find that the quality of the meat, the service, and the kimchi are the best I've had. Better than Seoul Garden, which was my favorite... until this place came along. The marinated beef is the way to go. It tastes a little like beef teriyaki... tender, juicy, sweet, yum. But try any of it. Also definitely get the Nakji-Bokkeum - spicy noodles with squid or octopus. It is SO good!
- Marinated short rib
(Beef short rib marinated in goodness)
- Nakji-Bokkeum
(The squid is so fresh and soft, the noodles are thick and have a similar texture, and the sauce is as sweet as it is spicy, and so delicious.)
I'd be curious to know if anyone has tried other dishes. Next time I go, I will get something new.
Expect to pay about $30pp.
