    Meat was not actually very fresh and not very tasty + lack of sauces. Al la carte items were great tho! Service could be better.

    It was our first time having Korean bbq, the staff took over helped cook the meat in the best order. We found it very tasty but you really need the sauces and kimchi to add flavour to meat. We did find certain cuts a bit tough, other was nice and tender. It was a fun experience.

    Food was great, service was good. BEWARE of weekend surcharge as it was at least 10% of the total amount plus the card surcharge (Eftpos included). Which can turn out to be a meal in itself. Apart from this I couldn’t fault anything else.

    Everything was so nice and I recommended this but it would be better if they can manage the smoke from bbq more.

    Overall average, not sure why it's rated 4.8 on google review.... Would not consider good quality of meat, steamed egg was salty. First time dining at a Korean bbq restaurant that doesn't allow free refill for vegetable 😅 Would not go again, food does not worth the price. Can have a try, but there are definitely better places.

    Very dissatisfied with the service , the waiters were rude and threw the food down on the table, no room to eat and generally tasteless.. such a disappointing experience.. the vibe was a year10 camp
