Seong HwangMay 26, 2014Bernard, our waiter, gave really good suggestions, explanations, and great service. Order rib eye and kimchi mari noodle as well as purity black tea. Overall really good restaurant for a night out.
TomJanuary 26, 2016Their restaurant week lunch is a fantastic deal. Get the wagyu burger or opt for the wagyu rib eye (only $5 supplement).
- Thomas MoAugust 12, 2014Dry aged rib eye cooks beautifully on the crystal grill (the waiters will do it in front of you). Get it rare! And try the mustard miso wasabi sauce that comes with it.
The crystal bowls are mighty fancy and nothing beats this trendy/modern take on Korean BBQ that doesn't break the bank. Luxury vibe, delicious pre-fixe and great drinks. Highly recommend the Sundubu!
Jennifer YounSeptember 20, 2014I never leave reviews but this place deserves it. The food is outstanding and the service is bar none. Can't go wrong here. Order the waygu beef/pork belly. Ask for Bernard.
Roula HannaDecember 14, 2014What a gem. Had an amazing filet mignon BBQ with the tofu appetizer. All delicious. And the excellent service is a big plus!
Lou CarulliDecember 8, 2014Amazing service! Got a Travel Zoo deal and went with my girlfriend. Great ambiance, waiter explained each dish and gave great recommendations. Food was on point.- TomJanuary 26, 2016Fancier Korean BBQ with quality meat selection. If you don't know how to cook, make sure your server sticks around to help. You don't want to over cook your Wagyu.
Clara ChungMay 27, 2012Get the bulgogi jeongol for two - tastes like mom made it at home. Kalbijim during lunch is delicious! Meat is perfectly tender and seasoned and falls off the bone
Natalie AnilloMarch 14, 2015Get the galbi and dip it in the brownish sweet sauce. Also, the pork belly buns. Ugh and that free seaweed salad side. My mouth is watering.
Kelsey LeeMay 31, 2014It may be expensive, but it's absolutely worth it. Best daikon I've ever had, and the ribeye is unbelievable.- Josh MateoSeptember 11, 2014Great, relaxing atmosphere on the second floor. Cucumber cocktail from heaven. Check it out!
Khee LeeJanuary 26, 2013Though it's a Korean BBQ spot, their naengmyun noodle dish is outstanding. Best appetizer may be the Chadolbap.
ArceeMarch 24, 2013Galbi was amazing. the service was excellent as well and the interior gave an upper class feel.
Marc ZdanowJanuary 15, 2014This place was amazing; great food, great atmosphere and top service! They BBQ on crystal
the rib eye steak is amaaaazing and the prix fixe menu is completely worth it.
- Thomas MoAugust 12, 2014If they run out of the bulgolgi spring rolls (which are delightful), they will offer you the same dish made with duck.
Tasting TableJune 11, 2012Order the bulgogi soup, a standout dish similar to a sublime Asian risotto: Read more
Niki HApril 28, 2015Don't let the waiter leave the grill. Our food was way overcooked. We had to send the pork belly back. It was like eating a shoe.
Anne Mai BertelsenSeptember 27, 2012Not impressed. If you want inventive, upscale Korean, go to @Jungsik
