    The sushi here is probably the freshest I've had in Montgomery. Everything feels very new and clean, and the service is friendly and welcoming. Looking forward to coming back with my family!

    Wow! I can't get over how nice everyone was in this restaurant. From the time of walking in until I…read morewas waking out of the door, everyone was so pleasant. That's what sticks out in my mind. The waiter even made suggestions and 'coached' me through how to eat my meal. And the meal was delicious. I had the ribeye and marinated pork. Very, very good. Multiple people would come by the table to make sure that the food was cooking efficiently. That was a plus. Also, most of the people there were in the private areas so there was any excess noise or lack of space out on the floor. I even watched time and time again how affectionately they would greet their guests. It was apparent that most of their patrons were regulars. Well, count me in that bunch as well. I'll be going here often. You should, too.

    I went to this restaurant a few months back with my homegirl and treated her for her birthday. This…read morewas her first time here, but it wasn't my first time dining here, and it was neither of our first times having Korean barbecue. We shared the Korean BBQ combo A, fried chicken gizzards, 2 sodas, extra rice, and extra eggs. It was a Thursday night; we got to the restaurant around 8:15, and they close at 9:00. There were maybe 3 or 4 tables inside at the time, including us. We ordered our food at 8:20, and we got it at 8:30. While we were getting prepared to cook our food, or as we started cooking, our server noticed that we were doing it wrong and decided to take over and cook all the meat for us. My homegirl and I looked at each other like, "What is she doing?" I thought we were supposed to cook this. I don't know if she did this because it was almost closing time or if she saw two black guests and felt like we didn't know what we were doing - that we were too incompetent. Long story short, we're the last two people in the restaurant, it was time to get the bill. The check was $154. As someone who works in the restaurant industry, I don't leave card tips; I always bring cash with me. When my server brought me back my receipt, I crossed out the tip portion because I had cash on me to give her. She got so upset and started questioning me about a tip, to the point where she got the manager involved. I was just so baffled because, baby, I had $46 in my bag that I was about to give to you. The manager's involvement took it to another level. He told me about tip adequacy and mentioned that they get a lot of African Americans who come into the restaurant, and despite great hospitality, they don't leave a tip. This comment struck a chord with me. Not only did it come across as racist and prejudiced, but it also showed that the manager judges people based on appearances. Assuming I wouldn't leave a tip based on the color of my skin, simply because other customers of the same skin color had done so in the past, is kind of FUCKED up. Ever since that day, I've never gone back to this POS restaurant. And to top that off, having servers come up and question customers about tips says a lot about how they're not paid enough. It's clear that the restaurant's compensation structure for servers relies heavily on tips, which can lead to situations like this. As an owner or manager, or whatever your title was, to think that every customer who walks through your doors is going to leave a tip is unrealistic. Does that mean your performance and how you treat customers will change if they don't leave a tip? This was my homegirl's and my first time ever experiencing something like this. I still talk to her about it to this day. Low-key, I recommend Fish & BBQ Korean restaurant next door or Volcano Hot Pot & Korean BBQ. To my brothers and sisters, please don't come here!
