| - Korean BBQ is one of my favourite and fairly regular treats. I've had it all over the US, including Los Angeles and San Francisco but from a pure value point of view, this place is among the best I've had.
We were offered the $13.95 all you can eat menu, but it didn't include the seafood. I wanted to try everything so we went with the $44.95 dinner for two.
How often do you find a place that provides 5 star food with a great price? In addition, the service was some of the best I've experienced. Our drinks were always full and the entire staff somehow served us simultaneously without any hovering. We barely knew they were there.
We had Bulgogi, Galbi, salmon, chicken, pork, scallops and shrimp. Everything was great, perfectly marinated, tasty goodness! My favourites were the Bulgogi and shrimp.
Banchan, the little appetizers that are brought out at the beginning really added to the experience. The sprouts with peanut oil were the delicious, and seeing that we'd eaten everything they brought out another round. I've never seen that before.
The restaurant is enormous with even more seating downstairs. The decor is stylish and hip, very untypical of most Korean restaurants with nary a Hite beer poster to be found.
After nearly two weeks in Toronto, this is my favourite restaurant and I can't wait to go back.
