Mixed Feelings. Cooking's the fun part.
We got almost everything from the all you can eat menu.
Kept confusing the raw and cooked tongs, dangerous.
Missed the $1.25 lamb skewers on the back of the menu, we just skimmed through it instead of looking properly.
Thin meat slices on grill were hard to cook evenly as they would curl, break, and get overcooked.
Thick was easy to handle.
Thin salmon got destroyed into little pieces on the grill :(
AAA Rib Eye almost no meat, but tender. Sadly no patience to cook my favorite cartilage until edible, not a good idea to have just one choice that takes long to cook, since it would get mixed with the raw faster cooking meats on the same grill.
Not fun peeling the shrimp, but half the table didn't mind.
Vegs were a waste since the grill's a flat plate with a few holes. Didn't occur to us to mix the vegs with the meat while grilling! Should have done that.
Dipping sauces were bad. Brown was too bitter for me, half my table liked it. Dark liquid sauce was bland. No other sauces available, made me sad. Need more sauces, like spicy! Shameful for Korea. Only the Kimchi was spicy :(
*slaps the owner* NO! You do not give ketchup for spring rolls! Wtf! Lol
Reg mayo for the mysterious korean sushi "vegetable kimbap"?! At least make it spicy mayo! The sushi rice was very soft, mushy, ruined :( but the crunchy part inside was great! as well as the flavorful crab fish and omelet :)
Gave us all our side dishes when seated, which were gone before the actual food arrived :( No one listened, so because I waited, I missed out. My table talked me out of re-ordering them, said they weren't good but I should have because they're meant to be eaten in between and with the main food! I ordered what I recognized, which was the kimchi & daikon, which were tasty. I'd be happy to each have our own side dishes in a divided personal plate, like the double sauce. The single plates took up too much room on the table for the little they had in them, and had to keep reordering so many times for our group :(
Upset that we didn't notice till later that the lettuce was for wrapping the food with white rice. There's no white rice on the menu, so we missed out on the korean experience & the advantage of their side dishes. Put that suggestion on top of the menu!
We're dumb, didn't know our meat cuts, so we just ordered everything. Be nice to see an animal outline diagram pic. We couldn't tell the difference between what we liked and didn't like. In general, I only liked the thick meats, not the thin. My group liked pretty much everything though, except for the porc belly because the fat didn't melt away enough. My mom was happy to see ox tongue :)
I was the only one who hated the inside of the dumplings.
I screamed when the whole baby octopus wiggled on the grill! So embarrassing xp Tasted boring since there was no sauce.
The calamari was excellent. Not what I expected, and not what I would call calamari. But it's texture was really nice, and I love how they cut it. Cool to see it roll up on the grill.
"Rice&Noodles" boring.
We didn't expect these were not shareable dishes :( menu needs more details!
Korean ramen was just noodles & red broth. Didn't occur to us to add our grilled veggies & meat into it.
The myuns were nice cold noodle soups which would have been a refreshing treat if we were eating spicy food, so waste.
Didn't know bibimbap was their veg bibimbap sushi just mixed together in a bowl. Awkward to share. Tasted ok.
Didn't know veg bibimbap was their sushi picture we were looking for lol no details on menu -,-*
Tender but not memorable fried chicken. Needs good dipping sauce!
Cute to have fries on the menu for kids, but skip!
"Buns" was in the same section as fried entrees. Should be in the desert section. Was expecting a meat bun or something :(
Unexpected fancy ice cream plating :)
Didn't understand that the waitress was trying to explain to us that we don't need new plates for desert (pineapple boring on flat gril, could have used cinnamon), cuz the ice cream plates also had a big flat surface around the bowl. Very new to me. Ice cream was very tasty. Disappointed for the no crushed nuts like on the wall picture. Chocolate syrup awkward with mango ice cream though. Cute delightful half frozen cranberry on top :) Ice Cream tastes great with a hot "Bun" together, like another version of ice cream and hot brownies. Buns like a pastry donut & covered in a simple canned sweetened condensed milk.
Might come back to try the BeefBoneSoup. Seen it on youtube, been looking for it!
The decor inside was like a deli, which was very strange for korean but explains the ketchup&mayo
Our meal was unorganized and a waste of a first experience, which is a bit of a shame for 40$ each (tip/tax inc). Would have made a better imprint if it was set up in a way where it was idiot proof. Not very interested to come back. At least be spicy! Wtf "Korea" ?! ALOT of potential if they made some changes though. read more
