    The service was outstanding, friendly prompt and waiting staff was absolutely fantastic. The food was superb and very fast to arrive after ordering. Very surprised by the bill after ordering a lot of food, the price was extremely low. Definitely will be back and recommend to anyone, especially those who have never eaten Korean bbq, very easy to order

    Overall a great dining experience, ordering the banquet for 3-5 people, we experienced an incredible variety of food, including 7 tasty sides before receiving a large plate with various meats to bbq ourselves cooking to each individual’s preference. Easy and relaxing atmosphere, variety of drinks and delicious desserts to choose from. Highly recommend the tempura vegetables and bean and tofu soup. Overall worked out around $60 per person, plenty of food for the money. Highly recommend!!!
