I tried Daeji Galbi(grilled pork ribs), and it was one of the best dishes I’ve had in a while. It was presented amazing and the portion was just right. I’ve been to other Korean restaurants, but this place is up at the top of my list from now.

Finally got to eat here after seeing into the buzzing restaurant a few times. Very nice staff helped us to work out the routine (select and pay for meat and fish) then taken to our bbq. Many different sauces and small dishes arrive. We really enjoyed the wagyu beef and the eel. The kimchi was fine, not too spicy.
