| - Called in a few days ago trying to make a reservation for Fri night. No reservations were available from 6:30-8pm, first come first serve basis.
Was told 1 hour wait when I arrived at 6:30pm, table for 4. But somehow we ended up with a table in 15min wait. My server was very tentative, detail oriented and gave good recommendations. Food came out in the speed of light after order went in electronically.
Their meat and vegetables was definitely better grade than "Korean bbq" restaurants. BUT also definitely not 100% Japanese barbecue as they claim they are. Nothing comparable to Japan or Japanese grill. Most importantly, their menu and flavor was Korean fusion. Like "Kalbi", lettuce wrap, Korean cold noodles, bibimbap, kimchi appetizer and serving Korean popsicle.
I do like their pork jowl (pork cheek) with lettuce wrap + garlic + korean hot sauce (they offered me, but you can also ask if your server didn't give it to you). I liked their gyutan [??? ] (beef tongue) as they came in thinly sliced; After grilling they were very bouncy, crispy, chewy... a word I don't know how to describe. (I liked my gyutan half cooked because fully cook would lost all the moisture and juice to it making it like jerky)
Overall they were okay, busy place full of Asians, restaurant doesn't have a lot of tables. Worth a try, photo worthy.
