| - Once again, another Groupon adventure my mom and I embarked upon. This time, a deal that granted $50 worth of dinner for only $25. A good deal? Yes...but only if the food is actually good that you're paying for.
The first thing we noticed when we walked in was how nice the place looked. It's set up so that each table has their own barbecue grill built into the table, and the whole room was actually done up pretty well.
We had plenty of time to notice our surroundings because there seemed to be only one waitress in the whole place. There were two other tables seated, and though she glanced at us twice while she was serving the other tables, she never even attempted to tell us that it would be a moment or anything.
After 5 or 10 minutes, she seated us, and we sunk into the comfy booths. We perused the menu, and ultimately decided on the Yagyu Combination A (26.95) and the Yagyu Special (19.95).
It was another wait again, and before long we were brought our food. The Combination A came with Harami, Kalbi, Chicken, and Shrimp. In addition, it also came with four varieties of Sushi rolls (California, Spicy Tuna, Salmon Avacado & Spicy Shrimp), an appetizer plate (Chicken Karage, Ton Katsu, and Pork Gyoza), a salad, a miso soup, a bowl of rice, and four sides (Edamame, Kim Chi, Seasoned Radish, and some random thing I couldn't identify).
The meat was pretty good, but there just wasn't enough of it. They were good cuts, and actually cooked pretty quick. The chicken was definently my favorite, as it had a nice flavor to it.
The sushi was TERRIBLE. It smelled like it was rotten, and tasted similar to dirt. I couldn't even tell if there were actually four different kinds of sushi because they all looked and tasted the same.
The appetizer plate was actually really enjoyable. The chicken Karage was the best part of the meal, and the ton Katsu was actually pretty good as well. The gyoza were over-cooked and entirely too crispy though.
The salad and miso soup were absolutely disgusting, as were the four sides. The edamame were extremely stiff, and I'm admittedly not a huge kim-chi fan.
The Yagyu Special was much better, because it was solely a large helping of Harami, Kalbi, and Rosu meat. None of the meat was seasoned, so it was slightly bland since the only available sauces were Teriyaki, Soy, and Syriacha, but it wasn't too bad.
Overall, this place is ENTIRELY too expensive for just mediocre food. I honestly would have rather gone to a steakhouse and spent $20 on a solid cut of meat rather than an assortment of small shreds. Not to mention that the service is just TERRIBLE. For Korean BBQ, or anything at all really, this is not the place to go.
