| - After getting recommended from a friend to go here, I went with my boyfriend on a Saturday night. We had a bad experience, and are likely never going to come back.
Problem #1: We got there around 6, but it took us almost 2 hours (got a table at 8pm) and I had to convince my boyfriend to wait a little bit longer as he was getting irritable. It's understandable that the restaurant was busy as it's the weekend and its dinner service but a different waiter told us it would only take 30-45 minutes (which was the case for most people except us). When you get there there is a list that you sign up with, where only ONE of the servers sit you down. The problem is that the server didn't even go through the list based on a first come first serve basis (there was even someone ahead of us that never got called!!!). It seemed as though he was biased towards Korean people and larger tables, as his personality switched from a table across from us (happy vibe) and even brought them tea. I think an improvement could be made is that we could be given bags to put our clothes into so our clothes don't smell.
Problem #2: After sitting us down, we got the beef rib eye roll (18.99), and beef hanging tender (19.99), Corona ($6.50), and Green Grape Soju (16.99), and the bill came to around $71. Note that your order has to be a minimum of two types of meat! The meat is overpriced, although it is higher quality than most places... I found it mediocre at best. Instead of going here, I could have made KBBQ at home and we would have been more full and enjoyed it more. It is only $30 for a box of MARINATED short ribs and $10-12 bucks for MARINATED bulgogi at PAT Central. Highlight of the meal was honestly just the potato salad, corn cheese and egg; which makes this place unique to a small degree. We were given some pork (service) for waiting so long, but ended up cooking it and not enjoying or eating it at all because it was disgusting due to the high levels of fat and put it onto a little dish for them to throw away. Servers weren't as attentive since it was a busy time, but another male server came by to refill our corn cheese and egg, and switched our grill when it burned which was really nice. For the most part though for the rest of the servers, it seems as though the servers don't care much about their service or tables at all.
Problem #3: Since the establishment was really small, it's a bit difficult to wait around in the front of the store since it is a narrow hallway. There is also only one washroom each for women and men, so you may have to wait a little bit to use the washroom downstairs. I noticed that an older lady who worked there kept going downstairs, and saw that there is a staff door across from the washroom, and she was bringing up tofu for the soup banchan (which is a little bit questionable). If you do go, try to get a seat in the back patio as it seems a lot more spacious and has ventilation for your cooking (apparently you can't sit there if you are drinking though :/).
I do not recommend this place.
