| - Driving down Rainbow all the time and we always pass by Nagoya 2. But leave it to an advertisement selling their newest addition to the menu "AYCE Korean BBQ" to have us coming through their doors.
Once you get passed the boring facade, you walk into a large restaurant establishment with a bar to the right, sushi bar in the middle, tables to the left, and bbq tables on the further left
The Husband wanted AYCE Korean BBQ, and there's only one way he can get it - if I order it with him. (It's offered to parties of two or more doing AYCE only.)
Adult prices: $19.95
Kid prices: 8 years old and younger: $12.95
A little banchan starts your Korean meal - Korean pancake, broccoli, pickled cucumbers, and potato. Not much here.
As the waitress was getting our table set up, I asked her if I'm supposed to go ahead and tell her what I want. She mentioned something about them usually bringing everything out, unless I have a preference. We definitely did have a preference because we didn't quite want it all!
There are about seven different appetizers to choose from, we went with:
* Garlic Edamame "Soy bean with spicy garlic sauce)
* Gyoza (Deep fried dumpling)
* Chicken Wing (Spicy marinated)
The kitchen list has about six items, and we got:
* Tonkatsu (Deep fried breaded pork)
* Vegetable Tempura (Assorted vegetable deep fried)
* Kake Udon (Thick noodles soup with fried tofu, fish cake, seaweed)
* Fried Rice (Vegetable)
From the Korean BBQ list of four items:
* Galbi (Angus marinated BBQ beef ribs)
* Samgyubsal (Pork belly)
(Our waitress did all the cooking for us here, so that was nice.)
From the Classic Rolls list of seven items:
* Salmon Skin Roll (grilled salmon skin)
* Spicy Tuna Roll (spicy tuna, cucumber)
For dessert, you get only one scoop of vanilla or green tea ice cream.
The staff really didn't want our fellow diners to not do AYCE with us, but we told them otherwise. The MIL and her companion chose to order off their regular Japanese menu. They both had the Combination Dinner Special which includes salad, rice, miso soup, gyoza, and two items from their list for $13.50. (It's $15.50 if you want three items.) She went for the tonkatsu and miso saba, while he went for the shrimp tempura and calamari tempura. However, we think he got the short end of the stick because there were only two pieces of shrimp and the rest were veggies. (In retrospect, he would have done the Shrimp Tempura Entree dinner for $12.90 and gotten 6 pieces of shrimp instead.) What a bummer! They also got what looked like a half order of a CA roll with their meal.
Service was good for the latter part. Our initial waitress was a bit spacey, until we moved into the bbq section and then that waitress was better and a lot more friendlier.
It was only a Tuesday night, but they had a steady stream of customers - some sitting at the tables, another sitting at the AYCE bbq section, and more sitting at the sushi bar. They have a pretty extensive menu, and the sushi menu is pretty long.
Overall, it wasn't bad for AYCE. Sure, we've had a better selection for a fraction of the price, but it'll have to do for the southwest area for now. But for more bang for your buck, you're better off over on Spring Mountain.
