Review: It personally did not hold up its reputation as people say it does. First of all, you cannot order sushi until the AYCE dinner has started; so if you go from 11:30 am - 3:30 pm, you will not be given the option to order sushi. Also, the directions are very ambiguous. The lady came to our table and asked us what we'd like to order, but did not tell us our AYCE menu was this little sign standing at the corner of our table, so we had no clue what to order, at the beginning. When we finally ordered, it took them a while to bring our raw meat to the table. Once we got cooking, though it was pretty fun! The service was not the best. One of the male waiters literally walked past our table every 3 minutes, staring if we needed water, then awkwardly walking away. When we asked him to bring us two more orders of rice, he brought us two orders of Short Ribs. I'm quite sure he does not speak English. Also, to get someone's attention to order more food, we literally had to raise our hands, as if we were students in school, to get their attention. Not once did they stop by our table and ask if everything was alright. On the bright side, the food was good--but keep in mind, we cooked it ourselves. The food was average though--nothing special or different than any other Korean BBQ place I've been to. I expected more from it, considering all I've heard about it online.

Review: This place was quite an experience. The food was amazing, i got to cook my own food at a restaurant. And it was pretty good. It was interesting with how we cooked it. We did not know when the food was fully cooked, so we did not know how long to keep it on the bbq. The service was alright. The waiters seemed like they did not have anything to do so they kept walking by the table to see if we needed water. They walked by the table four times in five minutes to check on our water. We asked the same waiter if we could have rice, but we got short ribs. It seemed like they did not understand english, which is a downfall but the food was still good. The ice cream was awesome. Mango ice cream. This was a good first experience to a Korean BBQ. I would like to go again sometime soon.
