We visited this restaurant by accident. It was a nice surprise! The owner takes pride in his food and we all agree with him. The beef was amazing and more importantly the service was very good and responsive. He also makes kimchi by himself rather than buying it from somewhere and it was great! I feel like the price is cheap for the quality of food. All in all it's a great experience. Definitely we will come back!

Was shocked by how generous the serving portions were. Great quality meat and the special really could feed 3, maybe 4 people! Enjoyed our meal and the service was quick and servers often came to check on us! Enjoyed the complimentary ice cream too! Fantastic. Can't wait to come eat here again!

The food was excellent - great taste and quality! The owner is very much involved and clearly takes pride in his business and even took the time to ensure that our little 16 month old child was comfortable and cared for! We were very satisfied and would certainly return if we come back to visit the area! Thank you for helping making our trip a memorable trip!

I've gone here a few times and each time has been just as delicious as the time before. They make their own Korean BBQ sauce. Its very flavorful. The meat is very tender and juicy. The service is always warm, friendly and hospitable!

This place is awesome!! The service was amazing, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was really cool. What more can you ask?! The beef was so tender and being able to grill your own food is awesome for a date, for families and even kids.Cant wait to go back again!

I’ve gone here twice, each time with a fairly large group, and the food and service is absolutely amazing! The portions are plentiful, the food is exceptionally great. I would highly recommend quite literally everything on their menu!The service is the true hero though. Each time I’ve gone here the service is impeccable. They’re attentive, helpful, extremely kind, and very personable! I look forward to my next meal here, as it’s always a wonderful experience.

My Wife and I went to dinner here a few weeks back,its always been one of my favorite places. When we arrived the owner stopped us and asked for our vaccine papers?! I said our what? He insisted so we showed them but felt our privacy was violated! I did not ask for his papers or the waiters, So i wanted to walk out but it was our Anniversary and we wanted to enjoy ourselves. While i was eating other large groups came in and they were not asked to provide vaccination paperwork? Our food was ok the meat was very fatty compared to years back?I sent a private email to the owner but they never replied so this is why i wrote this on a review!.

Outstanding! Our favorite Korean BBQ spot now. Went for my husband's birthday. Ordered the special dinner for two and had enough for dinner and the next two days! Maybe that's what they meant... Special Dinner for two days. ; )

The food is decent Korean and good value. And the owner Kim is a very cool person, he surprised me with a rose for each gentleman in the restaurant on Valentine’s Day that they can show love to their ladies. I will definitely come again when visit this area. Also it’s not far from Mitsuwa Japanese market.

Small, intimate, family oriented restaurant. The costs was more than other Korean bbq places but the quality and presentation were spectacular. Stellar service. Very attentive, kind, humble and old school- jokes and sarcasm might not be understood. But i look forward to returning!
