Please keep in mind we went during it's first week of being open and I am not trying to be mean by giving it only 2 stars. The waitress was very nice and she explained that the menu was still not complete and they had big plans of expanding.\nBuuuut having said that, it was a complete let down. \n1. they should not be advertised as korean bbq. \ni am a huge korean bbq fan and this was no korean bbq by any standard. it was completely americanized. the food came already made. you didn't grill it yourself at the table. the rice was hard. the bolgogi and kalbi were nothing close to any real korean bbq I've ever had (granted I'm comparing it to new york, los angeles, and seoul). my first tip off that this place wasn't going to be authentic should have been the name.\n2. they served the bibimbap in a regular dish rather than a sizzling hot cast iron/stone one\ni've traditionally seen the bibimbap served in really hot dishes so when you mix everything the egg gets cooked in w/everything and you get that crispy layer at the bottom. another bummer of the night.\non the plus side....\nthe staff was young and friendly and the main chef/part owner came to our table himself (i think he was the only asian person working there).\nthe restaurant is in a nice area and was cozy.\nbottom line...\nif you're looking for authentic korean bbq, go elsewhere.\nif you're looking for a cozy trendy place to meet up w/some friends for drinks and edamame, this place will do.
