| - Came here with my parents on whim. There are so many restaurants to choose from on this street, we basically pointed and was like "that one." We were not disappointed. This place is upstairs next to a massage parlor. I can see parking being a little difficult because there were limited spaces, and tons or places to eat in this strip mall, but we didn't have any problems. Also, if you read the signs its only one hour customer parking. I was there longer and didn't get towed, but could be different another time. Upon entering there were only two other tables being used. I thought there would be more considering we came in on a Wednesday night around 8pm.
My parents were new to the Korean BBQ Buffet, and the host was very informative on how it works, but at the table they have a bunch of fine print to read. They only allow two or more people to do the buffet. Also, you have a 90 minute time limit to order once you have put the first order in- so you cannot sit there all day. Also, of the two buffet choices, everyone has to choose either one or the other TOGETHER. Any leftover food can be charged to you, so finish everything. Now, once the food is out, you can ask them to take some back. But if it sits at the side of your table, its yours.
We all opted for the $20.00 buffet choices. There was another one at $24.00 with a couple more options, as well as a A La Carte option. To start, we ordered the chicken, short ribs, Bulgogi, and the Brisket. They came out with the food rather quickly since nobody else was there, and we began cooking. We immediately asked them to take back some of the Bulgogi since its looked overwhelming. But this was not the case- throughout the night, we kept ordering small batches of Bulgogi. It looks intimidating, but its not once you cook it.
The food was really good, and the service good too, they would sometimes come by to cook and cut meats up at our table. My only gripe was that it did get a little busy out of nowhere, like 8 more tables showed up. During this time we asked for more meats, and it took them about 15 minutes to get the meats to us. They also swapped the grills which is a nice touch too.
There were no issues with the bill, and they automatically put in tip depending on if your party is 5 or less, 6 or more. I will return here, but maybe not for a while, there are so many places to choose from on this street- I want to try them all. But this place is a recommend!
