Staff here are super helpful and will tell you the best ways to eat certain meat. Pork skin is surprisingly very good! A bit chewy and crunchy with a sweet sauce .

Alex Rainert

Incredible Korean BBQ . Gets mobbed and there's no reservations or a bar to sit at so get there early. It's worth it.

emily chen

their meat is mostly unmarinated so if you're into USDA grade meats - come here. if you have a more basic palate like me and like bulgolgi - go to the other joints! you will smell like meat after.

Fabian Martin

Very good Korean bbq ! The service was amazing, the meat was super tender and delicious and all the sides were great. Absolutely in love with the little hoisin based dip they had! Wow!

Alex Tsu

Best KBBQ in Ktown . Meat is high quality, location is spacious -- come early though, as it gets busy.

Dustin Lee

Great meat, good prices, more relaxed pace than most other BBQ joints on the block. Get a group of 4 and share one beef and one pork platter.

Joan Park

disappointed by the lack of banchan and watered-down kimchi (grill it!) but prices are best on the street. love the '90s decor and music . order the pork jowl (and ask for extra mushrooms !).

Vanessa T

Great Korean bbq with incredibly attentive staff amidst loud , thumping K-pop music ! Expect to smell of bbq smoke and meaty goodness for a couple hours after you leave!

Clara Eloy

Amazing place, food and experience! Loved the service, everything was super tasty! Beware it can be a loud place though

Awesome cost effective Korean lunch specials . Kalbi and Cold Noodle combo is my favorite one and it's only about $15. There are lots of lunch combo options.

Zayed Khan

Easily among the best meat I've had at a Korean BBQ spot in the city . Ribeye and brisket are particularly melt-in-your-mouth good. Beef platter ftw!

Gilbert Wong

try everything, it is all so very good! they have movable exhaust fans directly above their grills!! so finally a place where BBQ doesn't leave your hair and clothes all smelly; go and go OFTEN!!! ;-)

Ricky Kim

Perhaps the best KBBQ in Ktown . Prices aren't cheap , but the quality of the meat makes up for it. Also fun old-school Korea vibes!

Natalie Pacheco

Very affordable Korean bbq for the area. For groups of 4-5, order a large platter and add an extra meat, or go with one or two side meals. You will be well fed!

Ernesto Gutierrez

As you walk in, you are transported into a small village in Korea. Skip the Pork belly , it is too bland and needs sauces in order to get a good taste. The usda prime kalbi on the other hand, amazing

Vuk Milanovic

Great food! Although maybe a bit pricy . It has many visitors during dinner time and it feels authentic since so many Koreans go here. K-pop on the speakers, staff is friendly .

dawn.in.newyork

Friendly service makes more joyful dining experience here. Marinated beef or pork sets are all good and the most popular ones. But the seats are little uncomfortable.

Angela Wen

Surprisingly the mango bomb is amazingly delicious. So's the BBQ ! Fun ambiance makes you feel like you're outside in a small village .

Siobhán

Fantastic place for Korean bbq with a great selection of food and drinks. Very friendly for newbies, and not too big groups of you time it right.

Jin Moon

Very legit BBQ place . They provide egg casserole with each bbq dish. 90s kpop on blast. Service is wonderful! Expensive side though.

Clayton Fermino

One of the best places to eat in NYC. The beef plater is amazing, quality beef and tasty sides.

Natalie K

If you are ever in the mood to eat a whole cow with coworkers, come here. Food is amazing (especially bulgogi and marinated pork ). Waiters are super attentive.

Ida Paras

GOOD MEAT AND EXCELLENT FUN SERVERS! Will make sure to have this post BJJ training . Starting a new tradition. Look for Daeyu ????????

Stephanie Cesear

Fun place for family and friends! Get the beef platter & a lunch box (best part). Can accommodate large parties but you will most likely have a wait.

Jessie Catana

this is one of my favorite places. i love the atmosphere and the food is on point. i've never had to wait TOO long either, which is a plus.

Michael Knudsen

I get so many complements from out-of-town'ers when I bring them here, always a hit! Great for a work event !

Joe Kiley

Can't beat this place's atmosphere. Get a group of friends and make sure you order some BBQ and a seafood pancake .

Mary Li

Great Korean BBQ place, good service and great quality food. I do have to say that all of the prices on their website menu are wrong. Double it.

Zoe

Scallion pancakes are the BEST. Go with the USDA marinated meat platter and you get all of the fixing.

Max Flashenberg

No signage on the outside of the building. It's on the 2nd floor. Definitely a place that you need to try. Incredible meal

Rita L

They check your vaccination card if you’re dining in on the second floor

Honghui Yu

The large beef combo was perfect for 3 people. It comes with a tofu stew , bean sprout salad , steamed egg and banchan - very filling!

Cynthia Lin

2nd floor, feels like you’re transported to Asia. Mostly about the meats here. Marinated kalbi was great.

May J

Soup is very nice. In this pic is Bulgogi #3 in Lunch Menu

Michael Cabot

They literally cook the food for you in front of you. We got the beef set which was appropriate for 2 adults and a child. They threw in the tofu soup for free.

Alfred M.

beef and pork with some soju to wash it down. make sure to put the kimchi on the grill and cook it.

Jean ????

All the worthwhile dishes are ones that require grilling at your table. My 제유볶음 (spicy pork ) and my friend's 물냉면 (cold noodle soup ) were rather sub-par to the other restaurants in Ktown.

Christina Chin

Good atmosphere/decor, they cook your bbq at the table for u

Kristina Rudic

A very popular place to celebrate a birthday! Super fun, super loud , super tasty food!

Norma Salinas

Great place, amazing good quick service and delicious food. You can't go wrong here!

Albert Tong

Lunch combos are very affordable ! I like the kalbi beef with cold (soba)buckwheat noodles

P. D.

The food is great. The ambience is an added bonus like Epcot meets Kill Bill.

DoubleDeuce

The design in here really is wonderful. It's like being in a village . Great for a bigger group, or a smaller group.

diana jin

great service and good value - would recommend coming here with a group so you can order all the different cuts of meat

Nick Andlinger

Beef combo and pork jowl are the moves. More rustic than kang ho but just as good.

Paul Thomas

I recommend the large beef and the large pork selection for a party of 4-6. The meat just keeps on comin’!

Francisca Nunes de Almeida

A little bit expensive but food is very good and has a friendly service . Prepare for a long wait !

Alex Tsu

The default KBBQ spot for my friends and I. Lunchbox and marinated beef combo are the way to go here.

Joe Kiley

This place is amazing. The food, the vibes, the decor. It's an experience

Robert Brisita

Great assortment of meats. Try the cold buckwheat noodles with sauce and broth. Instant food coma but worth it!
