One of my favourite spots in Koreatown! While the meat portions are small/average, you get a huge assortment of bottomless side dishes, including the steamed egg and cheese corn on the grill itself. Highly recommend the cold acorn jelly soup - super refreshing!

One of the best kbbq I have visited so far. Huge portion and lots of side dishes! We had fun grilling and enjoyed our scrumptious food we had! Staff were great and always checked in on us.

06/28/2022 : Ate here for dinner today and the place was full, when we got there we had to register on a waiting list for a group of 5 and was told that there would be an hour wait. We walked around the area to kill time until our wait was over, when we seated we ordered right away and the food came out really fast. The employees there were nice and aware even though the place was very busy. The food was really good and filling, I ate quite a bit and the taste satisfied my cravings. Parking here is a bit hectic so I would recommend commuting via subway, other than that there is a lot of areas/places nearby to kill time if there happens to be a waiting list. It is kind of expensive, but cheaper than AYCE and other similar places. I would definitely come back here when I can and am craving and recommend coming here once if you haven't done so already.

Very good Korean BBQ restaurant.

It was my first expérience in a kbbq and it was pretty good, the meat was superbe and the service correct, its just realy hard for us occidentale peuple to eat cleans

Get here early if you want to avoid waiting! This small restaurant fills up quickly and wait times can get long! We arrived at 5:50 and still ended up waiting 15 minutes.Totally worth the wait!! Korean bbq is such a unique and fun way to eat! You pick from a basic, but delicious menu a choice of pork and beef, which arrives raw. Together you cook your meat at the table, while enjoying the many other accoutrements that they serve along time. The sweet corn was mind blowing!!!The service is wicked fast and everything is prepped in their kitchen ahead of time - once you’re ready to order the food is but minutes away.We ordered too much and left feeling a bit too full! Pricing felt a bit high, but the quality of meet was good.The bathroom needs work and could use a bit more intentional cleaning.

I had a fun time with my friends and enjoyed the BBQ meat; I love how crowded this restaurant, makes it feel like you are in Korea.

The prices were decent. The food was decent. Not the best nor the worst kbbq place I have been to. I kind of found the menu a bit confusing to me but I have bad hearing and couldn't hear the server over the music. We ordered the Seoul style table bulgogi. I wanted to order Kimchi stew but I don't think I could with what we ordered. Again I couldn't hear what the server said. They played some good old Kpop songs in the restaurant.

Daldongnae was absolutely wonderful. I have heard about this many times and always wanted to try it. The interior decor was really unique and wonderful as it reminded me of that old Korea of few decades ago. Lots of elements in the restaurant brought me to those good old days of Korea. We ordered 곱창구이 which is Beef Intestines BBQ and we enjoyed it. It was awesome how they gave us free stew and also cooked us fried rice after. Their service was great and it was an enjoyable experience overall. My non-Korean friends really enjoyed our Korean dinner today as well and I am happy that I made this recommendation. I am definitely gonna come back to place for more.

Extreme busy-ness alert! Went at 6pm on a Friday and there were 8 people waiting in front of us. Thankfully, they only allow 1.5 or 2 hrs of eating time so the line moved quickly (maybe 25 min?). The place is quite tight, crowded and a bit loud but not overpoweringly so. Very efficient staff, not super smiley but fast and to the point. Waste food worth the wait? Well, the presentation was great and meat was fresh but it definitely is pricey for a casual dinner. All in all, a fun, busy place to visit.
