| - This review is based upon my first time to Honey Pig based upon recommendations from a number of Korean friends I have. I opted for the "all you can eat" as it was a better deal (about $25.00 per person) than ala carte items from the regular menu. I had to actually ask for the all you can eat menu, as they only gave me the regular menu, and did not offer the other one. That being said, I do like the meat choices offered in the all you can eat menu. They offer the more common items such as bulgolgi and kalbi. In addition, they offer sirloin, spicy pork belly, spicy squid, chicken and a few others. I really enjoyed the kalbi (short ribs), sirloin, spicy pork, bulgolgi, and spicy squid. Everything tasted really good in my opinion. The one thing I didn't like, did not have to do with taste, but rather, with the fact that you could only order the sirloin and kalbi once, despite it being all you can eat. I also did not like that you have to ask for rice, as they do not serve it with the meal. On a smaller note, they also cook the kimchi and bean sprouts on the grill--probably just a taste thing, but I preferred those items cold. The side dishes were fair, in my opinion. I've had more variety and quantity in side dishes at other Korean bbq places. I have read about bad service in other reviews, but I did not experience it here. Although we had to flag our servers down a couple of times, she was prompt and pleasant with whatever we asked for. I had also read about service being discriminatory if you are not Korean, but again, I didn't feel that way at all (I'm not Korean). Overall, good, I would recommend others here.
