Customer Reviews
Love the food. I go here once or twice a week to protein load. The price and selection are the best in the San Fernando Valley. I just wish the music weren't too loud. Servers are great; there are days they are understaffed, but they try their best to accommodate us.
This was my first time eating at a Korean BBQ Restaurant, even though the wait wait was long because we went for dinner. The wait was so worth it. The ambiance is very inviting. The meats were well seasoned. The drinks surprised me I ordered soju and it came in a ziplock bag definitely an experience but it was delicious. The server was so friendly and explained a few menu options. Honestly a very good experience. Would recommend to do a prior reservation if it’s for dinner that’s what I experienced. We waited about an hour to be called in. But like I said it was worth the wait.
Party of 2. We were sat promptly. Menus were super greasy (orange grease, used my only napkin to wipe down menus and table). Rice served first: Mushy, overcooked. Then the sides came out: FROZEN KIMCHI! Drinks came out. Ordered wine: given two shot glasses for wine (okay I guess?). Ordered food to cook at table. Asked servers if the fan was on. They said the fans are always on. Smoke and vapors from the food flowing into my face the entire meal. The fan was not on. Fish katsu was overcooked: tasted like it was fried in old oil. Same with the fried chicken: dry, flavorless, unseasoned. Discovered that the shot glass I was drinking out of had a sharp chip in the rim. Tried to show a server but was blown off (Landon was his name and he just took off when I tried to show him the glass). See Pi
Not even close to what Korean barbecue should be. We were given two banchans, just two and they were the size of a soy sauce dipping tray. They were also terrible. Rice was not Korean but closer to Thai long grain. Service was super slow. Meat was small in portion and only 1-2 were worth eating. Could not have had a sadder "Korean" bbq experience.
I came out for dinner with a date. We were served by a very friendly and knowledgeable server by the name ofJoscelyn. She navigated us through the menu and made great food suggestions!! We had an amazing time! We will keep coming back for the great food and we will ask for Joscelyn for another incredible dinner experience!! Give Joscelyn the best night's and tables!!
