    Our glorious spread -- highly recommend the steamed egg!
    Nhi B.

    The best KBBQ on this side of town! I've been coming here since their soft opening, and I'm happy to say that they've stayed consistent and are my favorite KBBQ nearby. The meat is fresh and good quality; and their second tier menu has tons of options and variety. I love their steamed egg and Ganjang Bibimbap appetizers. Their salad bar also has tons of different banchan; and they're the only KBBQ place that I've seen include gimbap (which I love)! Service is always great and they're so willing to change out the grates when they're all charred. Would def recommend!

    My family went here recently for my dad's birthday and had the best time. (My mom, sister, and I are Korean in case that helps with gauging our reaction to the food. We went for all you can eat. The food was all amazing! We ordered several different types of meat so I couldn't name them all. We tried the Mandu, the bibim rice, the steamed eggs, and there was also a salad bar that had things like gimbap, gimchi, and Japchae. Everything tasted so good. The Japchae, in particular, had such an amazing flavor that I've never tasted in that before. I was obsessed! We also had some soju cocktails (mimosa and mojito) that were good. The service was amazing. My mom had coordinated our dinner with them ahead of time so they knew or expect us, and they were amazing. Also, for an unassuming building in East Colonial on the outside, it was large and really nice inside! There is a bar as well, and even an IG spot for pics. I would highly recommend this place if you're in the mood for Korean BBQ.

    Service was a bit awkward. There was a lot of reaching over people or not speaking loudly enough when refilling drinks, clearing plates, or trying to get to the grill. It is very much self service which is okay but we also struggled to the attention of the server sometimes. Good array of meat and vegetables, our party loved the steamed egg. Living in Altamonte, this place probably isn't worth the drive when there are so many other K-BBQ restaurants closer to the area. Liked the sauce bar too!

    I was so hungry I forgot to take more pictures. We went around 9pm on a Sunday and there was only 1 other table aside from us. As soon as we sat down our server was very attentive and even explained the concept of kbbq and how it works specifically at this location. Loved the ambiance and the decor! As for the food there is a bar with appetizers and meats to grill to choose from. The meats were soooo GOOD and I can never deny a good appetizer! Fun fact: they also offer some AWESOME soju cocktails!

    was amazing, loved it, and their bibimbap was straight from heaven ‍ Excellent service, delicious food, and affordable prices. While I was too busy enjoying myself, my husband took some pictures

    Went here for a late night food craving. We decided on the $29.99 meal as we only preferred bulgogi and some pork belly. The side dishes were amazing and seasoned to taste. Service was attentive. Surprisingly, what we loved most was the oranges. They are super sweet. My friends said the oranges there the best they have ever had

    If I could give this place 10/5 stars, I would! I take eating out very seriously. I try to choose a restaurant wisely since eating out can be a luxury these days. This Korean BBQ restaurant is top tier, quite literally the best I've ever had between Texas and Florida. While their menu selection for option A may be light, they more than make up for it in banchan variety and customer service. We had a late dinner on a Monday and two ladies were serving folks. They both were so welcoming, cheery, attentive, and personable. One lady in particular was eager to bring us her recommendations for banchan and showed us how to prepare small lettuce wraps by literally feeding them to us haha! Some may not like that, but we thought it was fun. Her enthusiasm made the experience far better than any other KBBQ place in Orlando. She even gave me a water to go and told us to not fall asleep while driving home after a big meal haha. The banchan selection was incredible, try everything. The sauce selection was a bit smaller but everything was so flavorful, you don't really need much. The meat that came out was great quality. We will definitely be back. Again and again!

    Pretty good AYCE barbecue spot in the Orlando area! Would definitely come back if I'm ever nearby again! We came on a day that was raining pretty hard and the restaurant was pretty empty on this weekday night so we had no issues getting a table for two. We got tons of meat to start and the server was super friendly and quick with getting our food as well. Service overall was very good - they're quick to replace the grill top as well. The meat quality wasn't fantastic, but the meat itself was decent so it wasn't too bad and given it's a buffet, I wasn't expecting amazing grade meat anyway. There's also an area to get however many sides and vegetables you want which was pretty nice. Overall, good service and decent food which made for a pleasant night. The place met my expectations for AYCE and even surpassed them a bit in service and quality - thanks, K-BBQ!

    Our group of 9 had an incredible time here!! We chose to do the larger all-you-can-eat option for $39.99 a person. The service was so fast and they were very very attentive to us and our needs! Everything was incredible!!! We had such a fun time and left feeling totally satisfied. We tried one or more of everything on the menu and there was not one thing we did not like. The sides were even delicious. 10/10 would recommend and totally worth the price!

    Vic M.

    Pricing is great for an all-you-can-eat option. I think they present solid offerings based on the price point. We - 2 of us - had Bulgogi, Galbi and pork belly. If we visit again, we would probably just stick to Bulgogi. For the sides you order we had egg, dumplings, and bibimbap. If we returned, I'd probably still order the bibimbap, but explore other options. There is also a full fixings bar with other sides, sauces, fried rice and Miso soup available. Unfortunately I didn't realize there was soup or rice available, so did not get to try it. I think your server can really set the tone for a good or bad experience. There were several servers who were working and while one server seemed very disinterested and almost cold, the other server was extremely helpful, cheery and made several suggestions that enhanced our meal. This restaurant is very large, and - as the sign says - would be great for large parties. I would definitely visit again now that I have a better understanding of their offering and structure.

    All you can eat for $29

    Sadly...this was one of my favorite places. Been here multiple times. Tonight we were celebrating my best friend's birthday and we had a party of 9. One of our friends is a vegetarian. We were told that if she ate ANYTHING, they would charge her full price for all you can eat. The all you can eat is all meat except for edamame and white rice that a vegetarian could have. They couldn't make an exception for one person to have some edamame when they had a table with food and drinks totaling over $300. To charge someone $30 for soybeans-ridiculous. Unacceptable. And sad. So vegetarians-this one's a hard no.

    Food is really good although it's a bit expensive wish they had discounts for returning customers...service was good. Waitresses were very attentive and overall everything was very amazing. Probably will come back once in a while because it is a bit expensive. And wish they had desserts like other Asian restaurants like cupcakes or ice cream. Good Korean music although they should play other Korean music besides K-pop.

    Mandu (gyoza on the menu)

    What's with the "discounted rate?" What does that mean?

    Are reservations available or recommended?

    I wouldn't say you would need it. I went and it was quite empty. I think they will take reservations but it is not usually busy.

Apparently, the K-pop group ATEEZ ate here twice when they were in town for their tour. It really feels like one of those "if you know, you know" low-key gems where visiting artists and local professionals go for authentic Korean food. By the way, September is the low season in Orlando--especially with the Magical Dining promotion happening at other local spots. Because of this, Surah has decided to close for lunch from Tuesday through Thursday this month. This means Friday is your only chance in September to catch their amazing, affordable lunch specials. Keep this in mind so you don't show up to a closed restaurant!

BBB Tofu House left me absolutely speechless and wanting to order much more than we did, and we actually ordered a ton of food for only two people. The outside ambiance of this place is very unsuspecting. It's in a poorly lit strip mall in the Pine Hills area of town. Various furniture stores and other Asian restaurants and questionable wellness spas dot the mall, but inside, this place was beautiful. It was like a ruby encrusted coy pond, gently playing K-pop in the background. Very cozy. The service was incredible. These folks were so nice and patient with me as I asked them questions about many menu items, wanting to make sure I ordered the right things. The food came out at a very reasonable pace, too. Everything was hot and fresh and delicious. And the food, it was wow. Absolutely exquisite. Started off with the Bulgogi Mandu (Beef; 5 Pieces). These are a fried Korean dumplings, and the thing about mandu is that they are probably the dumpling with the most filling packed into it. A massive amount of delicious beef filling, a crispy wrapper with a fun little crimping for texture, and a nice, subtle sesame-type sauce. Very good. I also had the Tteok-bokki, my favorite Korean appetizer. It is a chewy, cylinder-shaped rice cakes (tteok) simmered in a spicy, sweet, and savory sauce. And it was delicious. It was also the largest serving I've ever encountered, so it got kind of one-note. I recommend paying the upcharge for the Add Cheese. Then onto the Seafood Pancake. Look at this dang thing in my picture. One of the best things man has ever created. An intricately crispy outer layer of some sort of dough, containing within a cheesy blend of seafoods, all sliced up like a pizza and coming with that same sesame sauce for dipping. This was Super Bowl food, my goodness. I got the Galbi (BBQ Short Ribs), which is another Korean staple. Very mainstream, but for good reason. These short ribs are sliced crosswise, slicing up those muscle fibers, and leaving behind thin layers of delicious, tender beef. Being sliced so thinly also lends itself well to soaking up the marinade very good. So delicious. I finished off with the, here we go, the main event, Dolpan Kimchi Bokkeum Bap (Kimchi Fried Rice) (Kimchi, Beef, Peas, Corn, Carrots and Onion topped with Cheese). They'll ask you if you want the egg. Say yes. This magnificent creature comes to you as a mound of rice in a screaming hot stone bowl, with the cheese kept away from it. Tableside, the man cracks an egg on the whole thing, and then mixes the heck out of all of it, allowing the egg to cook and the cheese to melt. He then spreads it all out against the stone bowl, maximizing touched surface area, creating a crispy cheesy rice crust along the bottom of the bowl, making every bite amazing. You read all that right. And it was one of the best meals of my life not at a Michelin restaurant. I'm actually going to petition this place as a Bib Gourmand. It was that high quality. I'm in love.

Our server, Sylvia, was very kind and told us she would ask the manager if an exception could be made so our friend wouldn't have to go without eating. Shortly afterward, the manager, Kareem, came to our table and simply stared at me without saying a word. I politely asked whether Sylvia had passed along our request, and he responded rudely by saying, "No, this is the policy, and if you don't like it, you can leave. That's life." To be clear, we understand that businesses have policies, and we respect that. What bothered us was not the decision itself but the hostility and lack of professionalism. I was polite throughout the interaction, and had the response been delivered respectfully, we would have gladly stayed. Instead, we decided to leave without eating. I also want to emphasize that Sylvia was extremely kind and professional. Unfortunately, the interaction with the manager left a very negative impression. This location should do a better job of training its staff in customer service and professionalism.

Granted, the food court choices at the other location are better, I'd still come to Lotte when I need specific asian ingredients. It seems they're aware that theres more competition and they've not only done renovations to the store but they have a lot more specials now than before. The day we went they even had several people promoting products and giving out samples. I don't recall them ever doing that before and I think that's a great idea to boost sales in items.
