2023-10-15 03:55:28Our first time here, didnt know you needed a reservation, but they were able to accommodate us within 10 minutes. The food was delicious, the staff very friendly, helped us figured out what to order and helped us cooked the food. Honestly do not remember what we ordered, just know that it was delicious! Take their recommendations, they know what they are serving! Great place for date night.

2023-11-13 23:53:46Very nice traditional place. We were debating on the eel but ended up with the course meal. In my opinion the course meal is fun but really not worth $65. It’s nice if you haven’t experienced it but most of the courses are tiny and not that tasty, feel like the small pancakes have the color but not the flavor, and quite empty and pasty and floury. Be cheap but not for such small portion sand high end pricing. There were 2 porridges which I thought was overkill and kill with the carbs attack. The beef is Stewy if you like that soft steamed fatty meat. I prefer grill. And raw slices were so tiny it’s hard to enjoy but flavor felt bland. The raw beef again was about a spoon size. It’s ok but nothing to drop dead for a spoon for. The 1st platter of veggies you wrap like a taco is a creative idea and mix of nice veggies but really so little. I think it equates to 2-3 banchan which aren’t that expensive a mushroom, sprouts, carrots, I mean you can be a little more generous here. The soup at the end is so so denjang. Big tofus no meat. 4 raw shrimps at the end is probably their star. Desert is some cheesecake homemade but it’s not too good. And then sugary drink way too sweet. $65 per person.

2023-08-05 07:56:47This is your upgraded version of Kbbq. If you want a good atmosphere, attention to service this is the spot. We got several cuts and all of them were juicy and mouth watering. Definitely bring your loved ones, mom, anyone you care about showing a good Kbbq spot that they’ll end up being impress with.Usually have to make reservations but I do believe they offer walk-ins. Just keep in mind it fills out pretty quick.Parking: lots of parking and can be hard to find at first since you have to enter right away and make a quick right turn to enter. Next to other famous restaurants.

2023-10-29 00:26:03Private room is great for parties! Celebrated my MIlLs 80th birthday with about 35 people. The lowest level beef grill course was substantial. It doesn’t start that way because the appetizers (maybe the first 3 courses) are small, though elegant. Then the beef grill comes, then another porridge, and finally “the meal” after the bbq. If you’re not yet full after the bbq, the meal will top you off.For the birthday person they brought a tray with a bowl of seaweed soup, rice, & banchan (a small pre bbq meal). This was a very nice touch!! Very appreciated since seaweed soup is a traditional food for birthdays.They let the children in our party order from the doshirak selection. These saved us from paying the banquet price for the little ones. Also, the kids enjoyed their meals more than they would have had they had the banquet option.For a small fee they provided the decorated table and backdrop. I added a balloon garland to hide the backdrop frame. We brought in a birthday cake and dduk.It was all really great!! Perfect Korean patty.

2023-02-15 03:04:25Amazing place and attention to details. I recommend going here on a special occasion. The food was made to perfection and staff is very friendly. The special course we got was a 13 course meal. Definately worth the price. Please make a reservation as to make your experience more enjoyable and hassle free. The total with tax that we payed for the special han-jeongsik for 2 people, no drinks was $140. Hope this helps to those planning a nice fancy date with delicious food and amazing staff and atmosphere.

2022-10-04 05:25:22Decidedly solid Korean fine dining experience. It’s a little pricey but high quality meat and decent service for sure. We got a pre-set meal and it was lovely.I recommend the Terra beer above all the others, and definitely include the BBQ at some stage of the game. Easy parking and clean facilities!

2022-04-25 22:41:59We made a reservation for the day.Course meals were not available on the day of reservation.I like Beef Tartare, so I ordered both salt and red pepper paste.We liked salt better than red pepper paste.I went with my child, and they gave me a bowl for my child and a cup of water, so I could eat with my child safely.The staff were very friendly and the meals were all delicious.We wanted to order Bone-in Short Rib meat for one.However, the staff said that we need to order more than two servings to eat.So I had no choice but to order 2 servings.I think it would be good to refer to this part.

2023-01-16 05:02:43We went to KBK because they have rooms available large enough for a party of 22, have nice decor thats very clean and feels new, have lots of parking, and they have a 정식 menu (traditional korean multi course meal) which made ordering very easy.Service was very good, staff was very polite and accomodating. Food came out well prepared and looked great.The only negative I could come up with is that it is not as good as 정식 in Seoul. However, we are not in Seoul and in fact there are very few places in the US that does a good job. So considering all this I give 4 stars. 1 star deduction because, while very good for the US, not a top tier like Seoul.
