Korean BBQ fans can now indulge at Sizzle. This recent addition the plethora of restaurants in Desert Ridge is a welcome addition.
The dining experience includes the typical tabletop grills so that you eat as your food is cooked right in front of you. Most Korean BBQ places let the patrons cook themselves. Here the server does that for you. For some reason I prefer doing it myself.
We ordered the beef combination which the menu says is for 3-4 people. We found it to be plenty for 5 adults and 2 children. The quality of the meat was superb and that is so important. The combination was an assortment of 4 different cuts and each one was tender and tasty. The accompaniments, an integral part of the Korean BBQ experience, were fresh and did justice to the BBQ.
Now you may ask why only 3 stars. Eating at 5 star restaurants, for me, is a blend of great food and great service. This is where Sizzle fell quite short of the mark. We arrived just as they opened and we requested a table for seven. Three of us were there and the others were on their way. As soon as the table was ready those of us there proceeded to seat ourselves. One of the staff asked us to wait until the entire group was present. What?
The server did not bother to replenish our water and at least twice we had to hunt him down.
So 2 stars for poor hospitality.
