Imagine scuba diving in warm, clear, tropical waters with multicolored fish. You see the cutest little baby octopus no bigger than a gumball. He swims around in front of you for a little while, and you put your hand out and he lands gently on your hand. He seems to look up at you for a second before darting back behind the coral.\n\nNow take that feeling and multiply it by TEN and that's what it feels like to eat one of these delicious little baby octopusses hot off the grill. I have had a lot of Korean BBQ but never had baby octopus marinated in spicy bean paste. Those little guys alone made this dining experience worth it.\n\nWent for dinner and I've definitely had better meat, but eating anything hot off the grill while it's still sizzling is always a bit forgiving. Bulgogi is ok, marinade a little mild. Kalbi marinade even milder. The porkbelly was solid. Some other yelpers question the freshness but when we went it was so crowded that they were constantly bringing out new meat. \n\nBanchan selection is limited as others pointed out, but one nice thing is you serve yourself. So everytime you want more doenjang, garlic, or jalapenos, you can help yourself instead of waiting around for the server like at other Korean BBQ joints. I also like to mix salt/pepper, garlic, jalapenos, with sesame oil for dipping - especially for the non-marinated meats.\n\nBe forewarned that you have to cook everything yourself and also that you're gonna stink like Korean BBQ all night - I was asked 4 times, \"Did you eat Chinese food or something?\"\n\nFor the most part this place is 2 stars, but the baby octopusses and the $16 price made it 3 stars for me.
