We came here on a Saturday, noon. There are couple of stalls in front of the restaurant. They have lunch specials for certain dishes and they also have an all-you-can-eat yakiniku. We ordered a bibimbap in hot stone bowl, spicy barbecue chicken with seaweed soup and small bowl of rice, and bulgogi with mixed rice in hot stone pot and spicy tofu soup.
To start off, they gave five banchan (small dishes) of kimchi and veggies. They offer to refill two of them, if you ask. The bibimbap was delicious, they give bottle of bibimbap sauce where you can squirt as much of it onto the rice.
The spicy barbecue chicken was good as well. Not sure if it is mixed with gochujang and other spices, but the spice level was more mild and sweet. This dish comes with a small bowl and seaweed soup and rice.
The bulgogi with mixed rice in hot stone bowl and a choice of either seaweed or spicy tofu soup. The bulgogi dish was marinated well and wasn’t salty. Went with the spicy tofu soup, it came out piping hot! The spice level was a three out of ten, but it was favored well. I think they used half of a tofu. The mixed rice in stone pot came out last cause it is made to order - dip it in the tofu soup to soften it up. They gave a metal pitcher containing hot water for you to pour into the stone bowl and scrape off the hardened rice, if you like rice crackers then definitely do it.
Each set was $15 - $20.
The staff was friendly and super nice. Really prompted. There is also a call them on the table where to ask for them. They take all major credit cards and cash. Parking might be a little harder to come by at night cause there is a “club” next door.
A good place for lunch or dinner. The lunch menu offers generous quantity while maintaining the level of quality. Dinner seating available as booths or private rooms for groups of large families & friends.
Yakiniku (BBQ) offered as Ala Carte or All-you-can-eat, good value considering the quality and price. Attentive service, the staff is considerate to not over serve guests and they will attend when you're in need, often predicting your needs. Other dishes typical to Korean cuisine are done well and just as one would expect, no shortcuts. Banchan (반찬) included with meal.
Korean BBQ buffet was better than expected! Especially for only $21 per person. You can request pork, beef brisket, galbi and/or chicken. No children prices. We also got complimentary soup and dumplings. Definitely other Koreans in there so that was a good sign. Will be going back soon.
Good food, good service! Large party of 16 people with 4 grills going makes for a hot experience. Otherwise a 5 star.
4 of us did the AYCE. Sue took care of us and she was amazing!! Showed us how to use the cooker and everything! We left all food and meat decisions to her and she did not disappoint!! The whole meal and experience was wonderful! 감사합니다.
To the reviews saying they don't treat "non Koreans" the same, where YOU rude? Because we were the only non Korean table in the place and we received EXCELLENT service, EXCELLENT food, and were treated like everyone else!
One of the best Korean restaurants on the island! Great service.. Plus, it's AYCE!
This place is just A M A Z I N G! ! ! The service almost made me cry as dorky as that sounds… It’s so hard to eat at places w/2 kids 2 yrs and and 4 months old!!! The servers truthfully felt like family… They were so nice, even feeding my 2 yr old at 1 point. Understanding when Oliver dropped his plate. Brought Nori as a little snack. Tina and Dance and several other servers who’s names I didn’t catch were just so damn attentive and kindhearted. Feels harder and harder to find servers or honestly ppl in general these days that are that pleasant and hardworking. I haven’t even mentioned the food yet?!!!
The sides are amazing and the portions are delicious!!! We are heading back w/more friends ASAP!!!
Was there last week with my wife who is from korea. Super friendly staff and great authentic food. She made me bring her back twice before leaving the island
Good quality meat and nice selection for the "all you can eat" option.
Its awesome i gained 2 pounds
Best Korean BBQ in Honolulu!! Great prices, amazing food, and all you can eat!!! Very nice place to bring a date or your family. Friendly staff. I come here every week and it hasn't failed me once! I love it!!
OMG. Wonderful Korean all-you-can-eat dinner. All the food selections were delicious even the side vegetable dishes. Gotta go back to try the others.
The Restaurant is clean & comfortable. They even have private rooms for larger parties.
The quality of the meats are so much better than other similar places. Also they have fantastic side dishes! Too bad they did away with their all you can eat menu, but their combo is great and we still go here over other places because the quality of the food and sides are so much better even though the meats are not AYCE. Price is still comparable to Gen or Sikdorak even though it's not AYCE, but we get full off sharing one combination plate for two people.
