These guys were working hard AF when I was here. I'm greatly appreciative of everyone's efforts. Meat is decent for the price, grill changing was solid and staff clearing our table for empty plates and taking care of drinks was great.
I only had a few issues. The floor was super slippery. The music was so loud that it was difficult to ask for anything or even call a waiter over when we're ready to order meat. Nothing can be done about customers being loud but if the music is louder than that it's going to be hard to communicate unless the servers were more vigilant. That normally wouldn't be an issue and I understand the servers are dealing with multiple tables but with a 90 minute limit and not being able to put in our order we ended up waiting for a significant amount of time doing nothing. Clearing sides and having them replaced before we even get meat shouldn't happen. I'd at least want to order meat 3 times within the time limit. And that still doesn't feel like enough.

Delicious Korean barbecue at a convenient price. I would definitely go back. Go before 6 on weekends to avoid long waits
Service here was really strong. The servers are so attentive and really fun to talk to. Very speedy too. The food was also great for the price. Very affordable for all you can eat in LA. Be sure to come hungry. The meets were great and everything came out amazingly. I would wish that they had more than three main sauce options because I love yum yum sauce but overall the options they had were still good. I would definitely come back here and am very glad I chose to come
Food was delicious! Definitely worth the price! Just be ready because it's like a sauna in there. The only complaint that I have is that they automatically added a gratuity without informing us. We were a party of 5 so I understand, but there was nothing written anywhere and it was never mentioned. I told the server that although I understand, it should've been told or written somewhere. On my way out I double and triple checked to see if it said it anywhere. The server did apologize and told me it was his fault for not mentioning it, but otherwise nothing else was done. He was an amazing server tho! And we had a lot of good food and a great time there! I would definitely go back again!
Good quality, good taste, very busy, long waiting line, and a reasonable price!
If you want to eat a whole bunch of meat you gotta go to this place! The first time we went it was a little bit intimidating to figure out how you're supposed to cook and eat this food, but we pretty quickly figured it out by watching people near us. The beef is very good, high quality and delicious. They also have nice little Korean type, side dishes and sauces which are also excellent. The service is fast and the atmosphere is fun with good music and people just having a good time. Highly recommend.
Service was fantastic. They are friendly and polite. Food delivery was quick unlike other places that are slow. Food was delicious and the price is fair.
Great all you can eat Korean BBQ! The meat is fresh,land tender. One of the best kimchi soup I’ve had, very flavorful, a must try! You get 90mins to eat and you can order up to 4 plate at a time. The waiters are very fast picking up empty plates on the table. My only complain would be there’s no ventilation system, the air only travels out with open windows. $37/person. Pretty good deal.
