| - Oh man, where can I start? The Korean BBQ here was absolutely delicious. I was in the mood for some authentic bugolgi and korean style ribs, and this place satisfied my appetite perfectly! I ordered the all-you-can-eat buffet for $25, and I ended up eating more than I bargained for. Of course, the restaurant management prevents customers from ordering too much and wasting meat; they control this by placing a $10 charge for any leftover meat. Luckily for my group, we ended up eating every last riblet right down to the bone.
The atmosphere is a contemporary yet traditional Korean restaurant. Ironic, huh? They have cultural decorations hanging on the wall, but they also have the steel and chrome grills on the ceiling and glossed wooden tables that were surprisingly clean, considering the number of customers eating there and the oil that sprayed out of the grill.
We decided to grill our own meat, which was a fun experience. Our waitress basically brought over a generous plate of raw meat, and we used the tongs and scissors to cook our own food. A quick tip: wear clothing that you don't mind getting infused with the tasty aroma of Korean BBQ fumes. I wore an old jacket and a school shirt. Be prepared to smell like Bugolgi upon leaving the restaurant!!
The service was great, but nothing extraordinary. Our waitress was kind, but because there was a great deal of customers (the restaurant always has a steady flow!), she sometimes took a while to get our order. However, the waiters are always quick to change the metal grill on the table - this helps make cleaning off the black char a little bit easier.
Lastly, the food was above par. Before finding this restaurant, I had been craving Korean BBQ for a long time. Correction: I had been craving TASTY Korean BBQ for a long time. The BBQ restaurants in my neighborhood are overpriced and serve cardboard on plates. This place had filling food for a semi-decent priced. It isn't too realistic to expect to find a Korean BBQ restaurant that won't suck out your wallet. In my neighborhood, good food comes with a price.
I will most definitely come back to Seoul Korean BBQ Restaurant for more delicious Bugolgi, Kimchi, and Ribs. If only I had the bank to eat here every day!! This place is as good as it gets.
Now here's a knee slapper for you: this place probably serves the best SEOUL food in the entire city!! Ha! Ha!
