A friend of mine suggested this place and boy was she right. The service is impeccable and the ban Chan plates were plenty. Prices of their BBQ were similar to the neighborhood so no surprise there. Not cheap but you're paying for quality meats and excellent service.
The thick sliced pork belly was cooked to perfection. Just the right amount of fat and a pretty char. I was very pleased with the taste.
The Galbi was also a stand out. These beef ribs were juicy, cooked medium (next time I'll ask for more rare) and flavorful. You can taste the beef and the tenderness of it made it easy to chew and keep on chowing down.
I also ordered the bulgolgi but mainly for the kids. It was not as good as the Galbi flavor wise but still better than other places I've tried.
Appetizers we ordered as well were the seafood pancake and fried dumplings. Both were fresh and nicely crisp without the char flavor and you didn't even need the dumpling soy sauce. It was available nonetheless.
This place was clean and had a very neat decor. Two grills cooking at once kept us entertained and busy eating. They don't skimp on food or service. I would totally come back again.
Tip: doesn't hurt that they were featured on The Food Network and that it's Michelin rated. Also doesn't hurt it was named top 50 restaurants to try. Ranked 33.
Must try. BTW only street parking available or use the valet service as offered.
