| - Although we didn't have very high hopes based on the reviews we read, we still wanted to give it a try as it was located roght on the strip in Vegas.
We ordered the grilled chicken and dolsot bibimbap, so this review is limited to those items, the standard side dishes (banchan) and service.
Starting with the good, service was friendly upon entering but since we didn't order the "All you can eat meat" special, most of the waitresses were occupied serving those tables. We felt that we had to make an effort to get their attention for water, refills etc.
The dolsot was very disappointing. There was 3 veggies (mostly mushrooms, chinese broccoli and bean sprouts), about 2 tablespoons of meat and an overcooked egg. Typically, bibimbap has 5-7 veggies that include 2-3 root veggies, spinach, beansprouts, carrots, leafy lettuce, and egg that is almost raw so that when you mix it all up, it blends and cooks in the hot bowl.
The small portion of grilled chicken was overcooked/dry and was served on a plate. Judging by how quickly the food came out, it was likely precooked and sat around.
Finally, the banchan (side dishes) was very mediocre. There was only 5 or 6 compared to a good place where 10-12 is standard for dinner.
This seems to be the place for big meat eaters who
want quantity, as the "All you can eat BBQ" is $28 per person.
But if you enjoy the other Korean specialties like soups, rice/noodle dishes, fish, appetizers etc.,
I definitely wouldn't recommend this restaurant.
While I didn't eat the other items, if a restaurant cannot do a basic/popular dish well, its usually not a good sign.
