   First visit to Lava. Have been to other Korean Steakhouses in NY. Meet and veggies were good quality. Easy to grasp concept of cooking with the help of our server. 4 different side dishes along with a salad. Wish there were more sides. Plenty of food for 2 of us. Took home enough steak for a second meal. Although a great meal with my wife, we both agreed it would have been fun with a larger group..we may do that

   Our server was excellent in explaining how everything works and type of food they have. The food was fresh and excellent. The owner came out to check on us. We have been to many Korean BBQ restaurants in California,Chicago and Korea. Lava is at the top of the list. You must give it a try.

   The food & service was very good. We did not cook on the stove. The ambiance needs to improve, very blah….

   Service was so so. Drinks came out one at a time. Could have used some more cooking directions. Quality and amount of the meat was excellent. Sides were ok Different dining experience but fun. Nice change from the usual food choices in Myrtle beach. Quite expensive

   We were somewhat disappointed as our expectations were fairly high. Sushi was ok, just too much cream cheese. Our beef was hit and miss, some tender pieces and others not so much. Probably won’t return as the value was questionable.

   Grill would not work until manager came to help and then our food cooked too fast because the flame was turned up too high.
