    Had a reservation for Friday night for date night. We've been here before and loved it! We ordered the prime short rib and thinly sliced brisket for our meat and we got jap chae and seafood pancake on the side. Everything was delicious. They bring out the little sides first, so like different kimchis, bean sprouts, lettuce leafs, sauces, etc. then they bring the meat out and cook it for you. I really enjoyed the short rib and my absolute favorite was the seafood pancake. We ended up taking half of the pancake and the jap chae home. Everything else left in our tummy's lol. I would definitely come here again.

    Great staff and yummy food! If you are craving K-BBQ, this is definitely one of the places to go to in Chinatown. The staff are very attentive and they cook the food for you, not like other places when you are busy cooking your own food.

    Looking for street food? Enter the door to the left. Korean BBQ for dine-in? Head upstairs via the door to the right. We had a short wait on a late Saturday afternoon for our party of two. We chose the Beef combo with marinated short ribs and ribeye steak, and the non-spicy soup option. Unlike other Korean BBQ spots I've tried, here, they cook the meat for you with comfortable breaks in between. The combo comes with so many "sides"/accompaniments to try. First time, no problem! Simply ask for guidance. Our waiter demonstrated how he typically builds his lettuce wrap. He cut the lettuce with scissors, grabbed some ribeye he'd just prepared for us, dipped it in a delicious sauce, followed by some seasoned salad and told me to eat it in one bite. It was so good! You get to have fun here with the different combinations! There's are two, gendered-bathrooms so count on there always being a short wait for the bathroom.
