Long wait, but open until midnight so it all worked out.
Cute little two seater tables.
Meat came out sooo quick once ordered.
Not sure if this was on purpose or not, but meat portions seemed to be smaller for just us two.
Which was nice because we were able to try a variety instead of being hindered with a few huge amounts of the same meat.
Highly recommend the bulgogi. Service was great, dishes got cleared quickly to make space, wait staff was attentive and friendly.
Seems to attract a younger crowd.
(Parking was awful, but did eventually find street parking)

The food was amazing, the bulgogi is slightly on the sweeter side but i dont mind that at all! The environment is a bit loud but thats fair given that everyones gotta talk over the sizzling food.
I wish i had taken pics of the food but i hilarously only grabbed these ones.
Absolutely coming back here!

I absolutely adore this place.
It's genuinely my favorite KBBQ place in San Diego.
The only ones with good cuts of meat. The food/meats: the cut is great, the kimchi is fire and tastes like home.
it's not super fermented or sour.
the corn cheese is delicious and sweet, melted just right.
My favorite is the bulgogi, the thin sliced pork belly, the beef brisket, and a few others but anything 'exclusive' on the premium menu is amazing too (beef tongue & finger rib).
the food is just chefs kiss 10/10. The service: the servers are attentive and kind.
they occasionally check in on you, not often as I'd like but I understand it's because they're very busy.
The vibe and environment is great all around, good music.
If you go after 9pm, it'll be happy hour which was 27.99 per person.
For a KBBQ place, that's a steal! Overall, I can't recommend it enough.
I always take my friends here when I can.
