Korean restaurant
Two of us had dinner here on a weeknight.We were seated right away but they did fill up as the evening went on.The menu offers sampler meals for groups two and up.We went this route and got two very generous servings of meat and an excellent selection of little dishes.They load a table grill with mesquite charcoal and away you go.The family takes a lot of pride in make the dishes in house and were very happy to explain everything.This would be a fun place to come with a group of friends The price is fair as we paid about forty each for our dinner.
Ordered the 4 set meal, and it came with a huge variety of side dishes, soft tofu soup and japchae (both loaded with a good portion of meat), as well as 4 cuts of meats.The meat were all marinated well, but the galbi was definitely the star. Service was great, all of the servers checked up on us often plus changed the grill without us even needing to flag them down.For ~$40 per person, I'd say this was well worth the price, as we were all full by the end of the meal.
Our party of four got the four-person tasting menu, which included rice, banchan, and the following dishes: Kalbi: Tender BBQ beef short rib marinated in a special house sauce. Bulgogi: Tender BBQ ribeye marinated in a special house sauce. Spicy Pork: Mildly spicy and smoky BBQ pork marinated in a special house sauce. Japchae Noodles: Lightly sautéed vermicelli noodles with beef and vegetables. Spicy Tofu Soup: Tofu soup in beef broth with beef and vegetables. This restaurant boasts 100% mesquite wood charcoal grills, a feature that enhances the taste in a way gas grills cannot replicate. I particularly enjoyed the Kalbi; it was incredibly tender and bursting with flavor, perfectly seasoned.The Japchae noodles also impressed me with their delicious taste; the balance between sweetness and saltiness was spot on.Additionally, the tofu soup was excellent, satisfying my craving perfectly. For those planning to dine here, I recommend arriving early, as there is typically a 30-minute wait.Also, for convenience, there's street parking available, as well as a nearby public parking lot near the Smart and Final stores.
