We came here with a large party of approximately 20 to celebrate a birthday. We were able to make a reservation in advance. The majority of the group must be there to be seated.
We did the all you can eat (AYCE) dinner option. For AYCE, basic banchan was included, but some sides that I'm used to being included cost extra - the steamed egg and corn-cheese are my favorites but are a la carte. There are other appetizers that are included to make up for it - salad, french fries, ramen (comes in spicy and mild), fried dumplings, soy bean soup, and white rice. The banchan was plentiful - service was helpful to refill them on request - but they were slow to bring out the meats, which is the main event at a KBBQ place.
There was a variety of meats to choose from, and you will leave stuffed. I enjoyed the brisket, top blade steak, bulgogi, curry pork belly, and pork jowl. They also have shrimp and chicken options. We are capable of cooking our own meats, but I was surprised at how hands-off they were. Our cooking tray got blackened pretty quickly, and service never came to wipe or replace them.
They have a good ventilation system in place - after eating dinner, you don't leave the place smelling like KBBQ.
All things considered, when dealing with such a large group, service was good overall. There are many KBBQ options to choose from in Rockville, and Chadol is a solid choice.
