This place is nothing like the Korean BBQ here in Chicago. I was very disappointed which is saying a lot for a person such as myself. I am rarely picky, but La Maison Bulgogi was not that great.
The service was too much for me. It wasn't that they were unfriendly, but when I go to Korean BBQ, I like to grill my own food at the table. The waiter kept coming to the table to turn our meat and take it off. We ~a group of four~ had two seasoned cooks at the table. We neither wanted nor asked for help cooking.
In previous experiences eatting Korean BBQ, the workers changed the grill often so that it didn't stick and reduce the flavor in the meats. Here, they did not change the grill.
When they brought the side dishes out. They only brought out 4 or 5 dishes where I am use to 10 to 15 side dishes. This was very disappointing.
Another aspect that disappointed me was their lack of selections for people who are vegetarians. I understand that Korean BBQ is geared towards meat, but some people may want to bring a friend who is not a meat eater.
Overall, the experience was not a pleasant one.
