We love firepan. They always have great service and delicious food! Our go to is- steamed egg, rice, salad, firepan steak (literally almost like la galbi) my friend said bulgogi was her favorite, pork belly and sliced brisket. Its pretty busy in the area I would recommend reserving if you go in the middle of lunch or dinner time. We went early on sunday afternoon around 3 pm, people were still eating & busy! I also like the vibe in there. It was a bit cold but the heat from the grill was adjusting :)

So glad they gave refills of the radish! Good refreshing banchan to combat the greasiness of the meat. The staff kept coming over to our table even though we chose to grill ourselves, so that wasn't ideal, but at least the staff is attentive and makes sure that their patrons don't burn down the restaurant (?). Good prime steak and brisket that wasn't too fatty. I wish they had more veggie options but this is KBBQ! They have good marinated bulgolgi from their option A too! Their ventilation is pretty good as well--my hair didn't end up smelling all Smokey! Came out very full and happy!

Great time at FirePan. The service was exceptional. I like that our server provided us with the option to cook on the grill. It allowed us to just enjoy the food without the worry of burning the food. The food was really good as well. My favorite were the short ribs. Delicious. I'll definitely be back.

Finally dined in and loved the quality of meat and serving size! Our waiter was friendly and offered to help with the cooking which I love as it takes the pressure off of the table paying attention and cooking. Really spacious with lots of space for walk ins on the Sunday we went! My only problem is while it was affordable for lunch ( around 35 per person for one of the all you can eat options) I really love Galbi and the combo that included galbi was quite the price jump. But def worth it despite that personal preference ! There's still so many great options - way more than a lot of places to pick from - and rice and sides are included.

Solid KBBQ spot in the heart of Eden Center! Good service and quality meat, but a bit overpriced compared to some other options farther out--however, the location is in the perfect spot surrounded by other fantastic eateries and shops which makes it a go-to for us. A bit busy on certain evenings, so be prepared to be on a waiting list if you don't get a reservation.

Steamed egg

The food is ok. Not premium meats. The service was slow. Kept looking for our waiter. Bust boys were better than our waiter at least. Ambiance was nice. Music and noise level was ok that we can still talk to each other across the table.

The ACYE option has more options than what most places I've been to have. With option C, the ribeye steak with butter was so worth the up charge! You get sushi, more "premium" meats and everything else in the other options Our server was really great and made sure to constantly come back to our table to make sure we had everything we needed. Excellent customer service and food was just great! Definitely recommend coming to the Eden center and coming here!

For the price in quality of the meat served at this Korean barbecue place I don't think you can beat the price! Not only do you get quality meat, but the quantity served as well is substantial to the point that you do not get hungry trying to flag your waiter down again for a second or third order set. For lunch on weekdays it is $23. All you can eat for the A package for dinner and weekends. The price is $30 per person. Will be returning here and also a great date spot to take someone if you like to enjoy privacy and have a full meal!!

The service was OK, my niece did end up with a plate of raw chicken on her lap, but that was totally an accident. The server just fell. The overall ambience of the restaurant is really small and there's not very many places to sit so it's kind of a longer wait if you wanna sit down and meet it's very nicely decorated and it's clean. The food is good. They have all kinds of options for steak chicken seafood. I would go there again, but I probably would not take my kids with me.

Overall a great experience! My girlfriend and I wanted to try a new Korean bbq spot and chose this one based on reviews. They have an all you can eat for $30 per person. The quality of the meats for $30 was better than some places that charge upwards of $40 per person. The only one that wasn't good was the spicy bulgogi. Idk what it is but it had a weird consistency and neither of us liked it. The thin pork belly is actually incredibly good and doesn't taste fatty. The steak options are delicious as well as the chicken options. The service was quick and friendly. There isn't much interaction since it's kbbq and you tend to cook it yourself. But we were seated immediately and food came out quick. The ambiance is very casual but has a sleek/modern feel inside. There is a fair amount of seating. The parking can be sparse on the weekend. Also recommend getting a reservation as it can be busy. Highly recommend this place if you're feeling KBBQ

In my opinion, this is the better location than the one in Woodbridge; I think the service here is way better from my experience over there. Same fare as usual, walk in, get seated, pick what AYCE option ( or not ) and dig in to what meat selections you choose. It was a bit busy when I went and honestly I didn't mind it at all. The food was what mattered to me because you definitely come here to eat right? I'm a fan of brisket, pork belly, bulgogi, the steamed egg, and the salad itself too. I could be content with just eating that and I'd still be full. It's best to come here with a group but it's still a good time with a friend or a date. Easier to split the bill with too. Since it's in Eden Center, check this place out and the other places surrounding it. You're going to need to walk for a bit after eating so much food!

I came here on a Friday night a while back, because I never tried Korean Barbecue before and I always like trying new things and new places whenever I can. I came in by myself without a reservation slightly after 7pm and by the time I was seated, it was almost 9pm. So I waited a little over an hour and a half, and it was partly worth it in my opinion. I purchased the Option A of the all you can eat buffet (Option B includes seafood), and it was a reasonable price in my personal opinion. I had 4 servings of meat in total (Firepan Steak, Thick Pork Belly, Spicy Chicken, and Brisket), and the meat did taste very good, but it was too fatty & greasy in my opinion, and it gave me a stomach ache. I also ordered a Korean beer, Terra, and the price was much too high in my opinion for a beer that was not much larger than a standard-sized beer, and it was not very special in my opinion either. It was still a very nice beer, though. I personally felt a bit unhappy about the price. The price of the all you can eat buffet was reasonable, but the price of my one beer was more than 1/3 the price of the all you can eat buffet. On the up-side, the wait staff was very fast and friendly, as well as attentive. The food came with some little complimentary side-dishes as well, including rice. If I come back in the future, I will probably come back just for the all you can eat buffet without getting drinks, and I will make sure to come back during the slower business hours. This place is worth a try, though, if you like Korean Barbecue or want to try something new. The food was delicious overall.

The prices are quite good and the portions are generous. I had a full second meal the next day without trying. I got the Yangzhou fried rice and it was very well executed. The meat inside was excellent, with what tasted like lap cheong or a similar Chinese sausage. The egg was fluffy, not burnt, nicely moist, and evenly distributed. Everything tasted fresh and balanced, with real depth of flavor. This is fried rice done properly. The other dish was listed as spicy fried chicken or something, though it was basically a la zi ji. It was excellent. I loved the peppers, and the spices were very aromatic. The frying was done well, clearly cooked in plenty of oil, so not exactly light food, but extremely satisfying. The chicken was crisp and flavorful, and the overall execution was strong. The food came out fast, the prices were low, and the quality was high, and service was good. This is an authentic Hong Kong-style place, not fancy or polished, but clearly focused on getting the food right. Five stars. I definitely want to come back.

The dining room is quiet bc of all the competition in Chinese food these days but those new places are not quite as good, serve smaller portions, and charge higher prices. While the dining room is a bit sad and tired the food is not. Come support this small family owned business. Eat in bc takeout is never as good... especially with the amazing crispy, fried dishes this place knocks out. Chengdu Salt & Pepper Jumbo Shrimp, Cumin Fish, Stir Fried String Beans, Dan Dan Noodles, Chengdu Zhong Spring Dumpling, Cumin Lamb are some of the many dishes I recommend. They do a lot of things well --- a rarity these days in the restaurant scene.

This place was first recommended to me by Vietnamese immigrants many years ago, and it feels like it's only gotten better. So why aren't the ratings higher? Because it's not the cheapest place in Eden Center, because there's always a wait and the service can be indifferent, and maybe because the room and the furnishings are a bit tired. Who cares? I'm here for the food. Order the rice paper dishes from the back page of the menu, and prepare to get messy. So good. Nobody does it like Rice Paper! TIP: I use the stopwatch on my phone to measure how long I wet the rice papers. 20 to 25 seconds is the most you need, otherwise they get too sticky. Wet a rice paper for 20 seconds, then spread it on your plate, and fill with all the goodies before wrapping tightly.

Favs and must try -- seafood cha gao is delicious with the combination of lettuce wrap, basil, mint. It's a perfect bite flavor wise. The green papaya seafood salad is also good but not as Caesar-ey as I wish. But again, still yummy! Coconut curry risotto is a delicious new take on risotto. This has a lot of flavor and is cooked perfectly. Lobster garlic noodles-- no complaints here, it's delicious! Meh dishes-- chili wontons are nothing special, and the short rib paparadelle wasn't good IMO. Parking isn't the best but I usually find a spot in the garage and the restaurant has a discount code so don't pay for the parking until you get into the restaurant and use the discount code at the host stand. The restaurant is very pretty, good for date night or girls night too!

Super satisfied, brings me back to the tamales lady who shouts Tamales ... along the streets of Montebello. Size is a little small for 1 serving, good thing i got 2 and that for me is perfect. They have only 2 kinds - the pork and chicken. Guaranteed super good! Next - Carne Asada Burrito - is Huge !!! ... just missing the salsa - close to my cravings like super close!!! You got choices of protein - 2 choices of beans and 2 choices of rice. Among the places that serves Burrito they're like 4.8 (well because of the salsa) The Ssam box came as a super surprise - it's again super good. Serving portions are perfect for 1 person not recommended for sharing because it's that good you will finish the whole bento box! I love it because it's not salty , no msg I'm super sensitive to msg didn't feel anything at all- the flavors are there, like as what I'm expecting, it came with 3 corn tortilla , sour cream and 2 sauces ( the red and green sauce) Ambiance is well, never really paid attention since I ordered Take out and went to the grocery next door.
