| - I would give this place 3.5 if Yelp would allow me to have .5 star.
Though the line up was long and we had to wait for a bit, it wasn't so bad as the service was pretty good. Everyone working there was very nice, and they made sure to call us right away when the table was about to be ready. Also, they were very attentive throughout the meal. However, it took a while for the food to come out.. I understand that it's a busy location, but the wait was longer than the average.
When the cheese ribs came out, the server assigned to us was quick to come to us to help with the dish to be cooked, and he explained what each item was on the skillet as there were extra ingredients other than the ribs itself, including cheese. He was very helpful and I appreciated him not rushing through; he took time to make sure that ingredients were cooked enough to be eaten and that we knew what to do from there.
So here's my review about the actual dish..
If the ribs were good I would give them a solid 4 or even 5, but they weren't very impressive while the store's name has 'ribs' in them. They were pretty hard to chew, and it was really heavy on the sauce outside while the base meat is not properly seasoned. Other things on the skillet were decent, and eating them with ribs made the dish much better.
We ordered a Karaage (fried chicken bits) dish as well, which was mediocre. It wasn't fried properly; the texture wasn't crispy at all but soggy.
Overall, it was a fun experience to roll the ribs on melted cheese, but I don't think I will come back to this restaurant again. I feel like one time was more than enough.
