| - Food quality = 1 star.
Drink = love the 28 degrees beer.
Service = pretty laid back. 2 stars.
(I like Korean BBQ, which is a bit sweeter side) However, I am a huge fan of Japanese style yakiniku (BBQ) because I often visit Japan - that's what my clients overthere always eat, too.
Well, I don't give a shit about the nationality. Who cares. All I care is the TASTE. So, this is what I think about this restaurant.
Kimuchi - very rough, tasteless. Not that spicy, which is ok with me. One of the worst kimuches I've ever eaten.
Bibimbap - flavorless. I have eaten bibimbap both at Japanese and Korean restaurants many times. So far, this is the worst.
Meat - VERY flavorless. Everything is extremely watery and loose. I think they use cheap meat that is frozen and thawed repeatedly. Terrible. You feel like you are eating non-flavor gummy with yakiniku sauce. It doesn't matter if they are thick or thin - just don't taste right!
Rice and miso soup - not to mention.
California roll - it's NOT my choice. I've never seen yakiniku place serving sushi. My buddy ordered it (he's a typical guy who thinks Japan = sushi). I tried it - zero star.
Desert - nothing special.
You get what you pay for - I believe in this, however, here this doesn't work.. I really wanna support small business, but sorry, this place simply sucks. You should go to all u-can-eat Korean BBQ instead. You get more fore cheaper. I paid over $80 for two of us. Not worth it at all. Even if its 30 bucks, I wouldn't go back - this is nothing like Japanese yakiniku.
The owner should get better meats and better servers. Better paying more to eat better stuff.
If you think this place deserves 5 stars,,,, you should get a ticket to NYC or even LA to go eat yakiniku there.... Or even Japan,,,, the heaven of high quality food....
I could've rated one star - but for the sake of half frozen beer, I give 2.
