| - Went tonight for my wife's (she is from S. Korea) birthday as she was craving Korean BBQ. We normally--in the past--have gone to Sura but decided to change it up for this occasion. Well, we now know that we will NOT be going back EVER to this place! I will say that the place had decent food...brisket was good and so was the pork bulgogi. But, the banchan was just mediocre...and based on the review pics from the past it seems liked we didn't get the full selection of side dishes.
We got there around 6:00 PM and and we started to cook the AYCE "Nevada" BBQ (priced at $16.95/person) around 6:14 PM. I only know this because I started to snap some pics of the group around that time on my iPhone. Why did I check this a little later on, you ask? Well, our server rudely wanted to turn off our grill around 7:15 PM and we told her we still wanted to eat a little more. She then told us that the time limit was 1.5 hrs for the AYCE and we had only 10 more minutes. Say what? I was quite shocked as I have never been to a KBBQ that actually had a TIME LIMIT!!!
So, I checked my phone and saw that I snapped the first picture at 6:14 PM. Which means we didn't have only 10 minutes left, but actually 30 minutes left when we were rudely advised. Ironically, we were all getting stuffed anyway, and was ready to wrap up soon. Now keep in mind, that some other tables who came in before us were STILL eating when we were told we had to wrap it up. I guess they must have had "cooler" waitresses than ours.
I asked to speak to the manager and she smiled and listened, but you could tell she could have cared less ("Oh yes, uh huh, ok, sorry...."). She even told me--as I spoke in a normal voice complaining about how we were cheated out of a half hour in our "timed" 1 1/2 hr allotment (geez, that kills me to even have to mention that!)--that I needed to "calm down". After, just standing there for several minutes with no offer to make us feel better or even a nice gesture in words, I said "Thanks anyway...I guess you can go then"...and she did!
So, be forewarned that depending on who your server is...and I guess if you don't fit the mold of true Koreans/Asians (I'm Korean-American, BTW)...you may be told to wrap it up and stop eating as your time may be up! So, combined with lousy, slow service, you could be getting very little BBQ for what is supposed to be AYCE. My advice to you is to go to Sura or another local AYCE Korean BBQ. At least there you won't get horrible service and a ridiculous time allotment for eating. If you don't heed my warning, then maybe you better bring a stopwatch to verify that you really are getting 1.5 hrs to eat their so-called "AYCE".
