| - I was in town for business and a few co-workers based in Toronto suggested this place for dinner.
I made my way to this establishment, right on Yonge Street, in a very dominate Korean part of town. Parking was easy, since it's located in a large strip mall.
Right when you walk in, you're hit with a bright setting, the hustle and bussle of the staff and full tables. We were greeted in Korean, of which I don't speak, but my co-worker does; and were seated immediately. We landed a table by the window, to which we could see the snow fall and proceeded to order drinks and review the menu. Since this was my first time having Korean BBQ, I told my co-worker that I was at the mercy of what he thought would be a fantastic meal. He quickly selected two key items and ordered in Korean; how much more real/authentic can you get?!?!
He ordered the classic spare ribs and a fried dish of sliced beef in a sweet and sour sauce. On top of what he ordered, you're given a wide assortment of side dishes to go along with your meal, rice and hot soup.
Our food arrived shortly after the side dishes and the waitress proceed to place the seasoned cut meat right on the grill, which was built right into our table. Once it was placed on to the grill, we were left to finish the cooking process (FUN!).
Once the meat was cooked, you take a leaf of lettuce, apply a little sauce, some pickled vegetables and a pile of BBQ beef; then go to town!!! The flavors were amazing and the meat was cooked to perfection. On top of our BBQ, the fried beef in sweet and sour sauce was fantastic. I've had sweet and sour before, but the seasoned beef, fried in a tasty batter was a great refresher on great food.
This serving style was very unique, fun and a great way to make food fun!!!
I would highly recommend this place. Don't think twice, punch the address into your GPS and go!!!
