I've been coming to koreatown for the past few years and came with my family twice recently. The first time we tried some of the noodle dishes. My mom and I got the spicy brisket knife cut noodles while my dad got the knife cut noodles with seafood. Both tasted good but just a heads up that the brisket noodles were REALLY spicy and I was sweating half way through. But still thought it was delicious and I'd get it again. The portions were also large and I took like half of the noodles home. I had a taste of the seafood knife cut noodles too which were good and contained a very generous portion of various seafoods like mussels, shrimps, squid, etc.
We then came another time to try the korean bbq and got the small combo which lets you pick 3 different meats for $99 as well as various side dishes. We got the beef brisket, short rib, and ribeye steak and the side dishes consisted of the banchan, rice, salads, steamed egg, corn cheese, spicy cold noodles, a seafood soup, a soybean paste soup, and a shaved ice dessert at the end. So, there was literally a TON of food and I think it was super worth it. We also ordered the raw marinated crab since we had seen a lot of people eating it the last time we came, and it was about $35 for a fairly large portion. The crab was a blue crab so the legs were a bit small and difficult to eat. The flavor though was delicious and spicy, and the crab is really tender. As for the kbbq meats, I thought the beef brisket was just okay but I enjoyed the ribeye and short rib meats. The sides dishes were really good too especially the soups. Overall, the food was quite good but I think a problem with the restaurant is that the ventilation is not great for a barbecue restaurant. I have been to a lot of kbbq places but this was the only time where the smoke is just everywhere and almost blurs your vision lol. Because of this, I'm not sure if I'd come back for the korean barbecue but I will definitely be back to try other dishes!
