Took a look at the menu and noticed the Combo Special prices went up again, since the last time we came to this restaurant! The Beef Bulgogi and Tofu Soup combo showed a price of $37.99! I recall it being $28.99 - $34.99 in the past 2-3 years! Dunno why the prices keep going up, but that's something we realized while checking out the menu, which has been pretty much the same ever since the first time. Our complimentary fried fish and side dishes were dropped off at our table shortly after placing our food order. Then about 10 minutes later, we received the Bibimbap and Beef Bulgogi. Seemed like the meat dish's portion size dropped once again! It used to be a bigger sized plate, if I remember correctly... Anyway, we enjoyed our food and atmosphere while we dined in. Service was great, as usual. But the prices keep going up, so we do not drop by as often as before.

Thank you Stephen and Nancy for making our visit so special! :) My partner and I decided to drop by to try Do Si KBBQ and we're so glad we did.

Iykyk ;) Meat quality was great, they had an amazing selection of appetizers/side dishes, and it was very clean inside. I was surprised at the quality of the appetizers... especially the bean paste soup and crispy pancake. S-tier!

That was some chews fatty meat, honestly all four meats that came with our meal were chewy and a ton of fat. Wagyu should melt in your mouth. All the little side dishes were very good. And we had a Korean rice cake in a cheesy sauce that was good as well. But the bottom line is for $100 that meat is a poor quality. My feeling is sometimes people open up restaurants, advertising Wagyu, and then realize how expensive it is and start making cutbacks.

My favs were the pickled cabbage, stir fried fish cakes, and sesame ball. I would not get the chicken again as I found it dry. I liked the fish cakes a lot and in the future would consider buying a container separately. I look forward to trying other menu items Service We ordered on the screen but the food came out quickly. The minimal staff interaction we did have was pleasant. You do not bus your own table Ambiance Very clean and casual. Decor reminded me of a cafe almost. Not a ton of seating, but the way the food is packaged makes it great for travel/to-go

These folks probably need another great review like Elon Musk needs an increase in his allowance,…read morebut fairness demands that I not keep silent regarding my enjoyment of this restaurant: THE ROSES: Ample dedicated parking. The staff is gracious, prompt, professional, and - I hope no one objects when I say this - rather attractive. Generous portions and reasonable prices for what you're getting. The food is nothing sort of legendary - bold flavors and dishes have the perfect balance of sweet, heat, savory, and umami. THE THORNS: None significant enough to mention. NEITHER ROSE NOR THORN: It is important to note that this place is insanely popular with the area's Korean community. The restaurant is quite busy Thursday thru Sunday, and significant waits for a table are likely. Monday thru Wednesday is your best time for going and getting a table without a wait. The price of some dishes, like their signature offering, Kalbijjim, might give you a pause ($80+). It is important to keep in mind this is made to order, and one serving can easily serve four regular appetites. If you're just a couple, you're definitely going to be taking this home with you. This is not a bad thing, as Kalbijjim is one of those dishes that is even better the next day and doesn't suffer from reheating. THE VERDICT: Daeho Kalbijjim is extremely popular, and it's not hard to see why. The execute authentic Korean cuisine pretty much flawlessly with efficient and charming service. What else to you want in a restaurant? Highly recommend. Just try not to go on the busy days.

They also had some really tasty banchan that made the meal even better. It's incredibly busy, so I highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time. For a group of four, I'd recommend getting a Kalbijjim and a cold noodle dish to balance out the meal as the meat flavors do get pretty heavy. The Suyuk was another standout, the meat was tender, and the broth had an incredible depth of flavor. As for the cheese on the Kalbijjim, I'd say it's not necessary unless you specifically want the experience. The dish is already delicious without it. Overall, a really great meal with bold flavors, incredibly tender meat, delicious banchan, and great service. Definitely worth a visit!

GEN KOREAN BBQ @ SOUTHCENTER MALL…read more Parking is super easy at this location since it's in the Southcenter Mall, with plenty of free parking available. We found a spot right out front, and it's nice that you can also walk around the mall before or after your meal since there are lots of other shops and restaurants nearby. This was my first time trying JEN Korean BBQ with my family, and I was excited since I'd heard they have several locations across the U.S. We came for dinner, which is about $35 per person for the all-you-can-eat menu, while weekday lunch is around $25 per person, making it a great value if you're looking for AYCE Korean BBQ. They have a great selection of meats, plus plenty of appetizers. The corn cheese was definitely one of my favorites and is always a must-order for me. Everything came out fresh, and there were lots of options to choose from. The staff was friendly, attentive, and quick to bring out refills. I also really liked the ambiance the darker interior gives the restaurant a cozy, modern feel that's perfect for enjoying a meal with family or friends. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back. If you enjoy Korean BBQ, this is a fun spot where you can cook your own food, try a variety of meats and sides, and eat as much as you want. It's a great place for groups, family dinners, or anyone craving all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ.

The meats are delicious, sides are absolutely a HIT!! The best bang for your buck, and it's nice to go to a kbbq place where I don't have to cry about my wallet for AYCE. I'm not very picky about KBBQ so me personally I felt very satisfied being here. I would prefer to go here over any other place just to satisfy my KBBQ cravings. Our server is so sweet and kind! She made sure we were taken cared of. This place deserves more recognition!

Food was mediocre. The marinated beef wasn't too bad tho. There weren't much sauces. I thought the…read moresnack bar had some more sauces where you could make your own but there's only one on your table labeled dipping sauce. The pork belly comes with a sauce they bring for you. Speaking of pork belly they were too chewy we cooked it for long enough and it was still very chewy. Service was trash. The lady that was our server poured all the meat on our fryer so half of the meat was stacked on top of each other so it took longer to cooked. We're already on a 90 minute time crunch. If my step dad wasn't pestering the lady for a next round they wouldn't have checked on us and we would've been waiting for 30 minutes. While we were waiting for the second round the lady told us to turn off our heater when we're not using it, the man later came and turned it back on and told us to keep it at level 400-500. The next time we got the food she tried to put all the meat on the fryer again my step dad said "It's okay we got it, thank you" she looked at us like we didn't know what we were doing. Later on she looked at how we put everything on the fryer she looked and laughed at us TWICE.

My friends and I stopped by Danji Korean Cuisine for dinner and I was honestly blown away by the…read morequality of the food here. As visitors from the Bay Area where there are a bunch of Korean restaurants, I can confidently say the food here is far better than your average Bay Area Korean restaurant. Between the four of us, we ordered a 12 half-and-half piece wing set, a seafood pancake, a tofu soup, and a beef bibimbap. Although food takes a long time to come out of the kitchen, the food is worth the wait! The seafood pancake was some of the best seafood pancake that I've had. The pancake had generous amounts of seafood in it and the crispiness could not be beat. Although the bibimbap comes in a large stone pot and is sizzling hot coming out of the kitchen, you unfortunately aren't able to extract any burnt rice from the bottom. Perhaps a little bit more oil is needed to achieve this? Despite this, it's still a really nicely constructed bibimbap bowl with a solid variety of vegetables. The chicken wings are crispy on the exterior and juicy on the interior. The wings are on the larger size, so once you get past the thin layer of crispy skin on the outside, I recommend dipping the wing back into the leftover sauce on the plate for more flavor. Last but not least, the tofu soup had a deep kimchi flavor, and was very mild in terms of spiciness. I thought the rice cakes included in the bowl were cooked perfectly and had a nice bounce to them. Overall, if you're looking for Korean food in this part of town, I don't think Danji Korean Cuisine can be beat.

Danji is a great Korean option on the east side but the prices definitely suggest east side. If…read moreyou're willing to drive a little further away, you can get equally good or better Korean for less. I ordered the stone pot bibimbap. The display was beautiful but the rice didn't crisp up against the stone pot the way I expected, and that may have been because of how it was plated. I also ordered the six piece mixed fried chicken - the chicken was super hot, freshly fried and flavorful. I can definitely see why they advertise the chicken on the door. It's not my favorite Korean place but I'll definitely come back here if in the area.
