    We go at least once a week and enjoy it every time . We have one recommendation is to add the deep fried ice cream on the menu as an dessert. But overall we enjoy this place .

    Our first experience with Korean BBQ couldn't have been better. Mason was incredible helping us choose what to eat, preparing it and taking care of us. But beware! We got the classic combo, recommended for 1-2 people, and could have easily fed two more! Very generous portions (two big eaters, with no appetizers, could possibly have managed). Delicious and fun.

    The service was Great and the food tasted amazing! They offer to have someone help you cook the meat on the grill if you would like. We opted not to have this but next time we go we will ask for this service. The meat and sides were so fresh. Will definitely be back to eat here again!

    The Valentine’s special made me a bit skeptical given the pricing, but it was 100% worth the price. The food was delicious, the drink I had was strong, the dessert was also good. The waitress was super nice and interactive.
