   Food was great but we did not feel comfortable during our visit. We felt rushed and pressured to order for the entire table without knowing what all parties wanted. We ordered drinks in between meals however we were constantly asked if we were done and started taking our plates away. My husband had his food infront of him and his utensil was taken away. We travelled from eastcoat to visit friends with our toddler and reserved the restaurant ahead of time. If we knew there was a time limit then we would have not visited the restaurant. Lastly, as we grabbed our check, there was additional 20% on our total bill. This was after the 20% tip that we would have added already. We really enjoyed the quality of food however we will no longer be visiting the restaurant or recommend for larger groups or with kids.

   Had a lovely dinner with a friend on a Saturday night; the meats were of high quality; the beef rice was delicious; banchan was wonderful (and they will refill upon request); and Mags our server lived up to all the good reviews! Background music was awesome but a tad loud. Would return. Grape soju was amazing!

   We had such a wonderful time. We ordered to-go for delivery once and enjoyed it very much so decided to stop in. The staff were so kind and the manager came by and welcomed us and checked on us also. The food was great! Shout out for the honey butter potatoes, they were so good! The bbq was good as well, the cuts of meat were perfect. We got the “premium” tasting plate that came with 4 different cuts. Initially thought the portion wasn’t going to be enough but we left very full! The garlic rice was so simple yet so tasty! All in all, we really enjoyed our experience and will be back!

   I have a lot to say about this restaurant. So much that I decided to stop typing and sum it up in just three very simple words. Wack, Expensive, & Foolish *they did allow my food to be ordered to go only good thing

   We reserved this place after finding out it was recommended through the Michelin guide. Atmosphere is great and the waitress was accommodating to add 3 more people last minute. Food was okay but very pricey for the quality. Many of the meat were very tough for the premium cuts. Side dishes were okay. The server cut the pork belly separating meat from the fat and frying just the fat. It didn’t make much sense. The best food was the soondubu and radish soup. Cloud 9 cocktail was good. I was not impressed as it was recommended on the Michelin guide.

    Overall I will give 1 and a half star or 1 star due to service and the food below par. It was NOT authentic Korean food. Not good place for business dinner as you may have to cook by yourself or will end up having all the meat burned. The waiter and waiteress are not attentive at all. Vegetable fried pancake called Scallion pancake is just ordinary that may be brought out as complimentary sidedishes in any Korean restaurant. LA galbi wasn't really up to par with too many fat which I had to remove. Their chef special at $75 is below par especially if you are used to traditional korean restaurant serving decent quality of meat. Pork belly in this chef special is not worthy at all. The wagyu tastes tender but not delicious. If you know real taste of A5 Wagyu, you will be disappointed. If you have NOT teasted A5 before, you may like it because you may not know what the realy A5 Wagyu tastes like. If you go to Costco website, you can order decent quality of A5 Wagyu. One thing that I like about this restaurant is their ventilization system that was built inside the grill.
