4.8 / 5.0(2,674 reviews)
Had Korean BBQ here and it was so good! The meat was super fresh and juicy, and the side dishes were all amazing especially the sauce. The vibe was chill and perfect for hanging out with friends and tourist. Big shoutout to Michelle for being so friendly and helpful, her English is very good, she checked on us often, made sure our grill was perfect, and gave great recommendations. Service like that really makes the experience even better. Definitely coming back if travel again to Korea! Absolutely loved this place! Such great value for money with unlimited everything — meats, ramen, drinks, and sides. Perfect spot for groups, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. We cooked everything ourselves, and they let us enjoy our meal without interruptions. The food was fresh, flavourful, and simply delicious. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun, making it a great dining experience overall. I’d definitely come back again — highly recommend to anyone who loves great food and good vibes! 💕 I tried this samgyupsal place, and it was fantastic! The meat was fresh, juicy, and grilled perfectly right at the table. They offered a great variety of side dishes and tasty dipping sauces that went perfectly with the pork and beef. The staff were friendly and quick to refill everything. The atmosphere was lively but coming perfect for hanging out with friends. Definitely a must-visit spot for samgyup lovers!
