| - Although the wait time was ridiculously long (1.5-2 hours), my overall dining experience was a full 5 out of 5 stars!
Food Quality: YUM, everything was so fresh and delicious! The marbling on the short rib was very impressive and the clams were a very nice addition to the menu.
My favourite orders were:
1) Kalbi Boneless Short Rib = perfectly marbled and thinly sliced, these were by far the EASIEST to cook without flares of fire or burnt meat
2) House Marinated Kalbi Short Rib = marinated in a delicious sauce and served as a thicker cut, this one was juicy and had more of a mouthfeel
3) Miso Beef Brisket = also marinated but in a different sauce, this one tended to be a fattier cut and burnt more easily. While it was delicious, I found it very difficult to cook because the fat oils dripping into the fire would feed the flames and make it overbearingly hot.
Food Variety: Gyubee has so much more variety than the other BBQs that I've been to - from the beef, chicken, pork, and seafood selections to the vegetables and side dishes, you really get a well-rounded meal. I particularly enjoyed the creme brulee and melona bar at the end, which was a refreshing change from ice cream.
Service: 10/10! Our waiter was exceptional and checked in on us frequently throughout the meal to see if we needed any assistance. He even stood there and helped us to cook some of our meat when the fire got too intense! He was courteous and very helpful. Tip was already included in the bill but we tipped him extra afterwards.
I would highly recommend you try this place out if you haven't been!
TIP: They don't take reservations but if you drop by and leave your name for the waitlist, they give you a pretty good estimation and you can leave to go play darts at iDarts down the street before coming back in time for dinner!
