Great place for authentic Korean BBQ. The service is efficient and polite. And they use wood instead of gas. Highly recommend!

One of my favorite KBBQ spots in the Bay Area since they have the charcoal grill. We got the bulgogi and kalbi (both were delicious). The minimum order is 2 meats for the BBQ, so it can get pricey sin...

Solid Korean bbq with the traditional banchan, sauces, kimchi, and soondubu sides. We got the galbi, Bulgolgi, and chicken. They cook it over a charcoal fire for you at your table which gives it a rea...

The restaurant is a rip-off. I rarely leave restaurant reviews, but this appears to be one of the bad ones. We explained that this was our first time ordering from this restaurant and that we were not...

What People Are Saying

Overall Experience

The dining experience generally receives positive feedback for authentic Korean BBQ, highlighted by a 4.0/5 average rating, though one recent review strongly criticizes the value and portion sizes. Many customers enjoy the traditional cooking methods and quality of dishes.

Customer Favorites

Customers highly enjoy the BBQ meats, including LA Galbi, Wagyu ribeye, Kalbi, Bulgogi, and chicken, noting their delicious flavor, especially from wood or charcoal grilling. The banchan, particularly a unique macaroni salad variant and seaweed/radish dish, also received significant praise, along with refreshing Mul Naengmyeon and rich Tofu Stew.

Atmosphere & Service

Service is often described as efficient, polite, and great, with servers proactively refilling banchan. The restaurant features wood or charcoal grills at the table, providing a distinct smoky flavor. However, one customer reported impatient service and feeling rushed. Parking can be crowded during dinner time, requiring guests to be prepared to wait or seek alternative parking.

Value & Quality

The quality of food, particularly the BBQ meats, is generally rated as very good or excellent. However, a recurring theme is the high price, with multiple mentions of it being expensive or "pricey." One detailed review explicitly described portions as extremely small for the cost, citing only four thin slices of meat for $118, leading to a strong perception of poor value.

Areas for Improvement

The most prominent areas for improvement are clearer menu descriptions regarding portion sizes for expensive BBQ items, better guidance and explanation from staff for first-time customers, and addressing the perceived poor value for money concerning meat portions.

Recent Trends

Recent reviews show a distinct contrast: strong praise for quality BBQ and service persists, but there is also a very recent and significant complaint regarding extremely poor value and insufficient portion sizes for high-priced BBQ, suggesting a potential inconsistency or point of contention regarding portion expectations. The minimum order of two meats for BBQ is a consistent observation across multiple reviews.
