| - When I saw AYCE sushi and AYCE KBBQ in one location, I knew that I had to try this place out right away. My biggest fear going into this was the sacrifice of quality because I imagined only one out of the two options being good as that is what typically happens when you pair up two "AYCE" giants. After my visit, I can definitely say I was surprised.
To start things off, I really thought both the quality of the meats and the sushi were pretty high up there. I wouldn't go as far to say that either was amazing, but it was definitely good for a restaurant that offers both in an AYCE setting. Not only that, but the price for both to be included was more than affordable ($21.00 for the basic menu). I do have to say that the highlight for the KBBQ was the brisket, while the highlight for the sushi was the garlic tuna (which featured a garlic chip on top of the tuna; very unique in comparison to other AYCE sushi allocations). With the meal you are also give the traditional small Korean dishes and the house salad that you would receive at any other AYCE KBBQ location, which was a nice touch.
The only word of critique that I would really offer is to have more staff on duty. We were sat in a separate room, which seemed to hold everyone else who decided to dine in that day (the restaurant had several different rooms for seating). While all of the tables were concentrated into this one room, I would have imagined at least a few servers (minimum 2) to be attending to all of these tables. Instead, there was only one server attempting to tend to everyone's needs. Another word of advice that falls into this same category is for the lone server to at least carry a notebook to write her orders on. There was actually a point during our meal where the server forgot our items twice and on the third try, she brought out the wrong item. Honestly at that point, I didn't feel the need to ask for the correct order because I was already too full.
All in all, this place is very nice if you have a craving for both KBBQ and sushi. Be aware that you will probably get full though before you can truly enjoy everything that you want, but that is also a testament to how tasty everything was.
We will be back!
