| - Thank goodness for pictures... I had trouble looking for the profile for this place located in a local mall since I didn't actually have any idea where my friends took me, but the business front photo taken by Jennifer K. seems to match that of my own.
Based on the sign on the storefront, I would say this place was called Korean BBQ Restaurant. However, based on the menus provided inside, I'd say an alternative name would be Korean Grill House.
Well, whatever you call it, it is basically an all you can eat grill your own Korean food spot. There were two BBQ menus available for dinner - the $13.95 version included pork, beef, chicken, beef ribs, ox tongue, ox liver, salmon, squid, fish fillet and unmentioned portuguese sausage, while the $16.95 version added lamb and shrimp to the basic menu. Six banchan dishes, rice, and soup accompanied the servings of raw meats to the table. For lunch time or late night you get a more basic selection of meats for $8.99.
For an additional $2 or so per person (it was all or nothing!) we were able to enjoy unlimited select drinks (soda, plum, ice tea, cold soy milk), of which pitchers were delivered to the table.
The tongue was rather tough when grilled, and the cooked fish threatened to fall apart on the grill. Personally, I enjoyed the flavor of the tender sausage, but agree with a friend that it wasn't particularly meaty in texture. Everything else was okay, with the exception of the liver... but hey, I'm not a liver kind of girl. Still, so easy to stuff yourself!
Bathrooms are located by the entrance, and are simply marked with the symbol for male and female... too bad I couldn't remember which was which. Good thing two staff members taking their breaks on the nearby bench was able to point me to the right one, which happens to be the one on the right.
