For the "safer" staples like the short ribs, brisket,"Korean Fried Chicken" and kim-chi to out-of-the-usual like baby octopus, whole squid, seaweed salad and The Shit (chopped tuna and salmon, wrapped in nori and fried like an egg roll) we were very pleased with our first visit to Hwaro. The main BBQ food, appetizers and sides largely all were very pleasing -- except for the potato salad. But the prompt and friendly service made the 90-minute limit on the All You Can Eat dinner work out perfectly.
