Heed everyone's warning: The service here is TERRIBLE. But you get what you pay for, right? For $16/person + tax and tip, this is one of the cheaper places to go to if you want AYCE KBBQ.
I have been to Korean Garden a couple of times with my friends. My experiences with them were pretty pleasant so I decided to take my family here. Worst decision ever.
Given the fact that the service here is already terrible, the staffs are not one bit nice about it at all. Here's what really ticked me off:
1) They bring the meat to the table but they take forever to come back to put it on the grill. (Trust me, I would love to do the cooking myself but I got called out before for touching the tongs/scissors). They need an excuse for that gratuity.
2) They automatically get gratuity because it's their house rule. I get it that they cook the food/cut the meats on the grill but most of the time they are not around to do it anyway. They probably know that if they leave it to the customers to tip they would get 0 tip because of how bad their service is.
3) The time limit of 1 hour and 30 minutes is not enough because I spent 45+ minutes of that time, waiting. I was not able to enjoy my meal because they were so slow that I practically just waited all that time. Waiting for the meat, waiting for the drinks, waiting for the bill, etc.
I probably would not be back anymore. I would rather shell out a few more dollars in a nicer spot where they actually care for their customers rather than be given mediocre food and bad service. My suggestion would be, go here off peak hours - maybe the service would be better.
