| - In a nutshell: Good food, but RUDE. The food is delicious....if they give you time to eat it. B. Won has a fundamental service problem. I arrived at 8:45 on a Saturday and unsure how late it was open, checked the sign on the door, which stated they're open until 10:30 every night (except Monday, when the restaurant is closed). These hours are repeated on the front of their menu as well. On entering, the genial host welcomed us effusively. We sat down, ordered, and in five minutes, long before any food, the check arrived, our waiter saying, "We close at 9:30. Please pay now." When I pointed out that the sign on the door said the place closes at 10:30, the waiter responded, "Actually, we close at 9:00." The food arrived, and was delicious (though the speed with which the BBQ was ladled on my plate made it clear that they hoped we'd eat quickly and get out. I was harassed twice while eating to pay the bill -- clearly their need to cash out taking precedence over my comfort or dining experience. What was especially galling was that while we were eating, the restaurant staff were setting a table for their own meal. It was apparent that no one was really going anywhere, and they could easily have let us dine in peace.
It's a shame really, that a place with such decent food lacks a basic standard of cordiality.
