"Koryo has been a staple of Korean barbecue in Dallas for more than two decades, but thanks to a post-pandemic makeover, it’s better than ever—new owners, new look, same old permit to use real charcoal grills indoors. Those hot coals make their mark on the must-get marinated beef short ribs, Berkshire pork collar, and the ribeye pulled from the restaurant’s dry-aging cabinet. Koryo is generous with its rotating parade of banchan, which are some of the best in Dallas, including the sharp but not overly spicy kimchi, pickled daikon, and sesame oil–slicked bean sprouts. Order a round of sake for the table and you’ll leave so happy that the next door karaoke bar is looking like it needs more singers." - Rosin Saez

"Koryo Kalbi, the longtime Korean barbecue restaurant that closed its doors at some point during the pandemic, is making a comeback. The restaurant quietly kicked open the doors at 2560 Royal Lane, Suite 105, last week. The restaurant had been closed since at least the summer of 2020. Now, though, the restaurant is operating under new ownership and bringing back the same menu of charcoal-grilled meats, soups, and other classic Korean dishes that made Koryo Kalbi a Koreatown institution. “Our menu is pretty much the same as before, the same chefs and aunties making the same recipes,” Koryo’s new owners told an Eater reporter. “[We] renovated the interior and raised the bar on beef quality because we have access to our own warehouse that distributes meat.” In addition to Korean barbecue favorites like kalbi, more exciting new eats are in the works. Diners will soon be able to feast on live eel grilled over charcoal, soy-marinated blue crabs (ganjang gejang) and Prime meats that will be dry-aged at the restaurant. Top-quality Japanese beef will also, eventually, be on the menu. Right now, Koryo Kalbi is in a “soft-opening” phase, and is currently offering limited seating. The restaurant is currently operating from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 10 a.m. to midnight on Friday and Saturday." - Amy McCarthy

It's all about quality and experience! This Korean charcoal BBQ restaurant offers top-notch food and service. The chefs handle the grilling, ensuring that every cut of premium meat is cooked to perfection. The quality of the meat here is unmatched - tender, juicy, and bursting with rich flavors in every bite. The meal is complemented by flavorful soups, noodles, and a variety of side dishes. Each dish is prepared with pride and attention to detail. If you're craving quality Korean BBQ, this spot should be at the top of your list. I will be back.

Lovers of Korean BBQ should try Koryo Korean BBQ. Koryo is one of my favorite spots for dinner. Superb food, service, and atmosphere bring several friends, families, and loved ones to this restaurant. Nestled off of Royal Lane, within the limits of Korean town, Koryo is the perfect restaurant to experience a variety of delectable meats grilled for you right before eyes. Tasty and abundant, traditional Korean side dishes, called Banchan, are bottomless and replenished upon request. I recommend you try a combination of any of the meats they offer, the seafood pancake, and sample an adult beverage.

we have been so many Korean BBQ restaurants , have to say their side dishes are so good and delicious, sweet yam, cucumber, kimchi, radishes,onions are well seasoned and marinated. We have nice beef… so juicy and Pork belly was grilled so crispy … you have to come to eat in person:)

The food was good. I just wish there were more sauce options. The waitress was attentive and nice. We had a good time while she cooked our meats. The price is reasonable and the meat quality is good. The seafood pankcake was bland without the sauce but it was good with the sauce it came with. Overall we ate good and had a good time. Will come back

Meat quality is top tier! Their dry aged beef is so flavorful and delicious. Our waitress was quick acting whenever we needed anything.

Strip mall restaurant in a seedy area, set back in a bit so little difficult to find Sat promptly and given waters. Really basic selection of alcohol so I chose not to drink We ordered dumplings 1 steamed 1 fried the fried was FAR superior We ordered chilled buckwheat noodles, absolutely disgusting. Offensive even The glass noodles however were phenomenal We ordered 4 or 5 different types of meat as their pre set packages for the table All the stuff that comes with it the pickled veggies and stuff noone touched. Or even knew what it all was They cooked the meats with no love not letting them get charred we had to ask if we could do it ourselves. The marinated short rib was the only thing I'd go back for and those fried dumplings.

Incredible food! Friendly and extremely friendly service! All the meats were highly quality. The marinades were delicious! The kimchi was perfectly spicy! Definitely worth a second….third…hundredth…visit!😍 Alysa took extremely good care of us and made us feel like guests in her house! 5 stars just for her!

The food here was amazing! I came about 5 years ago and I don’t know what changed but it is a million times better. The bulgogi, brisket and mandoo were by far our favorites. Everything else we had was phenomenal as well. We will def be coming back again.

Came back. Still great. Always bring new friends to introduce legit KBBQ to. Can't beat the charcoal and marinated kalbi combo here. And that fresh oyster kimchi. Ugh, now I want to go back again.

My #1 Korean bbq spot. This is the secret gem of Carrollton. Every meat is properly seasons and marinated. Not only that but the meat is actually tender! Not more long chews. It is pricer than your normal spots. They cook for you, which is super nice. I prefer that. I liked that they had more options in terms of other dishes like the cold noodle soup.

Yelp
I loved the quality of meat. It is pricey compared to AYCE, but the meat quality is good. I loved the service and how they ask for opinions. My waitress was great and we talked a lot and she was able to point me to other places to try. I love their attention to detail. The beef short rib was seasoned delightfully and it was not overly sweet and it was tender. I wish I got the waitress name but she was amazing.

Solid Korean food and great service. Always a good time! They serve live eel, which I've never seen anywhere else in Dallas.

I can see why D Magazine rates this place one the Best! We stopped by for an early dinner and instantly seated and warmly greeted on the way in and on our way out. Clean, cozy modern Asian-inspired decor and roomy tables. We enjoyed the japchae noodles and lagalbi. The sides bon chon were delicious too. They even gave us more of our favorites. We will definitely be back again.

Fantastic place for Korean BBQ in Dallas. We ordered the Silla BBQ set for two people and loved the prime beef short ribs included. The service was very attentive, with frequent refills of ban chan and salad. We also liked that they served barley tea, which pairs perfectly with the BBQ. This is a big and well decorated restaurant and it is good for both small or large party.

I don't usually rave about the lettuce at a K-BBQ, but this was like crack! They add sugar to it for a little sweetness which made it addicting. I think I ate a whole platter worth. The meat quality was good and the service was good. Nothing stood out that much, but it's good enough to return which earns my 4th star.

Maria G.

Food was excellent. Short rib is very flavorful and tender. Waitress was very sweet. Establishment is clean and welcoming. We will definitely return!

This place has the best quality meat. Awesome staff. Very clean and modern. Best KBBQ place ive been to.

Delicious Korean bbq. The charcoal grill makes all the difference! This place is no ayce, but the quality of the meat is levels better than any of the ayce kbbq I've ever been to. Their bonchon is also spot on. My favorite ones are the fish cake, potatoes, bean sprouts, and steamed egg. I will say, the portion size might not be enough for 3 if there are any real carnivores in the group. But I felt pretty comfortable with the portion size and was quite full after (and this is after I haven't eaten for like 12 hours in the day). Plenty of parking in the lot. Dallas kbbq game is strong.

Ugh I hate to downgrade a previous 5-star review, but I went to Koryo again because of my previous stellar experience. The sides were still as great as I remember, but my server overcooked some of the meats, making them dry and not very enjoyable.

Tom L.

Yelp
This is a pretty nice Korean BBQ spot in old Korean town. The interior décor is pretty fancy-looking. They only have large tables so this is definitely a good place for dinner parties of 4+. The service was absolutely superb! The food came out quick and our waitress was extra attentive. This is one of those places where the waitstaff take the time and BBQ the meat for you, and our waitress had some pretty amazing BBQ skills with using a tong and scissors. I was so caught up with watching the cooking that I forgot to take pictures of the finished product. For meat - We ordered beef short ribs, ribeye, and pork collar a la carte. We also got a bowl of cold noodles. The pork collar and short ribs were pretty good. The ribeye was especially juicy and tender. The short rib meat attached to the bones were super chewy and full of flavor. For the sides - the kimchi and cucumber were great. The cold noodles came with an egg and some radish and cucumber slices. And ICE, man these cold noodles were freezing! The first bite chilled my teeth. They were sweet and sour, so refreshing to eat on a hot day.

I was searching for a good Korean restaurant in the DFW area. After dismissing all the neo-Korean places in the Ft Worth area, I searched in the Dallas region. Finally, I found this place. The menu listed Yuk Hwe and Mul Naeng myon along with all the regular BBQ items and soups. Also banchan were shown. And it was not a disappointment. We had the best Korean food. Everything was authentic. Great banchan, great soju amd mekju. The Yuk Hwe was the best ever. Wow! Kamsamnida!!!!

Koryo Kalbi Korean BBQ has been remodeled, updated, and is now upscale. One of my favorite Korean BBQ joints deserves another look. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars Atmosphere - Koryo is in the same location, but this is not the same restaurant. There are two wooden doors which open into a well-appointed lobby. The grey slate walls are brand new and give Koryo a very upscale vibe. On the right is the dining area. There are private rooms in the back which seat larger parties who want privacy. On the left is a small room where you can peek through the window and watch the staff butcher the fresh beef. Next to it is a fridge with dry aged beef waiting to be sliced and cooked. 1 Star. Service - The service was friendly, but if Koryo wants to rebrand itself as a high-end restaurant, the service should match. By no means was it bad, it just wasn't extra. 1/2 Star. Food - The menu is completely different. Gone are the traditional Korean items like cold noodle soup, and in its place is a menu highlighting their prime beef. IMO, this is a good thing. They do BBQ well, and now it's even better. You can order sets that feed 2+ people or a la cart. I ordered galbi and bulgogi along with a seafood pancake. The bulgogi was served on a hot plate. The marinated beef was extremely tender and sat on a bed of onions. I mixed it together and ate it with a seafood pancake. The galbi was also very good, but I kept returning to the bulgogi. Great meal - at a price. The new menu of prime beef also has new prices. Koryo is an upscale BBQ with upscale prices. 1 1/2 Star. Will I Return? - Yes.... although not as often as I would like. Koryo was one of the restaurants that used to be in my rotation. While the quality has gone up, so have the prices. You get what you pay for, and Koryo is a perfect example of that. I just won't return as often as I would like. 1 Star.

Recent update, great change!!! Delicious food, small portion but the side dishes are the best I've ever had at a korean restaurant. Pricy for not AYCE KBBQ but meat quality makes up for it. The side dishes are top notch, usually Kbbq places have the worse sides but this is great.

DALLAS, TX 75229 / KOREAN BBQ / 07-04-23 / DINNER +The meat quality was superb. They use USDA Prime beef products and Duroc pork. +The banchan side dishes were pretty good. +The customer service was excellent. +They offer dry aged meat options. +The meat is cooked on charcoal grills. +They offer a small naengmyun for $8.00, which was just enough to cleanse the palate after devouring the Koryo BBQ Set. -The ventilation was terrible and the air conditioning was non-existent. -They charge extra for lettuce. -Automatic 20% gratuity for parties of 6 or more. Overall, I would return but I wish the air conditioning and ventilation was a bit better.

Food was decent - I've had better tasting meats and options at different bbq locations. Service and staff were nice! They help cook your meats so you don't have to worry about being confused.

First the positives. The ambience and decor are very nice. The server told us the restaurant had been recently renovated and everything still looks new and refreshed. The restaurant uses real charcoal for grilling the meats which is a positive as it adds another layer of flavor to the meats. The setting is a 5/5. The service was good, although a bit too attentive for my personal preference. The meats were a solid 3.5 or 4 out of 5. We had two different meats: Aged Ribeye - 3.5/5 - The aging process added a nice flavor to the meat but the knock was that it was a bit bland. Pork Belly - 4/5 - Nice bit slabs of pork belly. The meat had good flavor and grilling it with charcoal added even more flavor. Banchans (side dishes) - 3.5/5 - The kimchi was good, the others were just okay. They do provide you with quite a selection (close to 10 different types of banchan). Soybean past soup - 3/5 - Pretty watery and needed a bit more umami you get from better versions of this soup (maybe needed to be boiled longer with some meat or other protein to add to the stock flavor). Steamed Egg - 3/5 - Pretty watery and bland. Now the real negative. The bibimnangmyeun (spicy noodles). 1 out of 5. This is probably the worst version of this noodle dish I've ever had at a restaurant. The sauce was just spicy with no other flavors. The noodles were very mushy. I thought they had overcooked it but my wife said that the real issue was this type of pasta (buckwheat noodles) needs to be thoroughly rinsed to release the starch and the restaurant hadn't done that. A restaurant of this quality should be embarrassed to serve a dish like this. If it wasn't for the noodles, I would have given the restaurant a 4, but I just couldn't overlook how bad that dish was.

I was by myself so didn't get any meats to grill this time. I love that they don't use gas grills... so much more flavor with the meats. High quality meats & sides! Service was a bit slower today but that also could've been because I didn't order any meats to grill... japchae is good! It has a hint of sesame oil in it. I've also had the bibimibap bowl and that was also good. Would definitely recommend!

We go to Dallas regularly for our son's soccer games and stumbled on this gem!! The outside didn't appear promising but the inside has a cool, clean ambience. Food exceeded our expectations and service was excellent!! We had beef short ribs and marinated beef short ribs; glass noodles and fried rice. It was all fresh and so flavorful. We will definitely be back!!

Yesenia V.

Amongst several other Korean establishments this place was on my list for its charcoal based cooking - which you don't find as often anymore. Ambiance was part kbbq and steakhouse vibe. Our server made every meat to perfection and was extremely attentive. The banchan was great and they offered iced barley tea, which I love! Ordered the silla bbq set and every single cut was delicious. Thinly cut brisket was cooked over closed slated grill and the thicker cuts were on an open flame grill (too busy eating, didn't manage to capture grill change). Also appreciated that as meats were done they stacked them over onions and king oysters rather than piling your plate or overcooking them on the side. Highly recommend if you are in the area!

Yelp
This was my very first Korean bbq experience and wow did it completely blow my mind!! The five star service, incredibly detailed menu items, and delectable bbq. Wow! First of all, you have the choice to select two meats for your main dishes (some are listed as market price, some set), or you can choose their preset meat options. We opted for the dry aged prime rib and the pork belly. Either option you choose comes with about 4-6 sides of veggies. There are gluten free options available just be sure to communicate that to your chef who helps you throughout the meal. The open flames right at your table was just so refreshing. It's so cool to see the food you select get cooked right in front of you. Wow. I'm still dreaming about how delicious the meats are. If you're looking for other options, their combination fried rice was probably the best I've ever had. Throw and extra fried egg on top for a little protein party. This is a pretty pricey meal but wow was it a lot of food, plenty of leftovers, and memories to last a lifetime.

A party of 4 of us had a late lunch at Koryo at 3pm on Sunday and we're not disappointed. I'm definitely a fan of Korean BBQ but very picky about meat cuts and selection. Koryo didn't miss the mark on either! Our table ordered the Koryo BBQ Set and a side of Bulgogi. All of the meat was outstanding; accompanied by a plethora of fresh banchan, scallion salad, steamed egg, soup and rice. Somehow we didn't get a lettuce basket but I honestly didn't even miss! Our waitress cooked everything perfectly and was extremely nice. And of course, what's KBBQ without Chamisul Classic to toast and cleanse the palate. Great food, great service and a cozy decor made Koryo a great choice. I'll definitely be back!

Yelp
Koryo Kalbi truly lives up to its name. The meat here is EXCELLENT quality. The side dishes are done well. Only "downside" would be that it is a little on the high price points for a dinner. The service was amazing! They cook the meat for you but can be a bit inconsistent if they get really busy. The interior of this restaurant is beautiful and well done. Has a very modern look while also highlighting some Korean feels.

Jae L.

Yelp
My favorite kBBQ in Dallas. Main reason is like the Korean bbqs in korea they use a real charcoal fire. The galbi quality is excellent for the price. Had galbi, spicy cod stew, and octopus and steamed galbi dish in this visit. All were tasty

Crystal C.

Yelp
Pros: butcher freshly cuts meat. Charcoal grill. Guy cooks it for you at the table. Barley tea upon arrival instead of plain water. Option between white rice or purple. The right kind of Korean salad. Brisket really lean. At first I didn't think I would like it that way, but then I god used to it. Samgypsal cooked to perfection. Delicious selection of banchan. My husband says this is that best he's had and we've eat kbbq at places all over this country. Open late. Cons: not AYCE. But we do t even like AYCE.

Ricky T.

Yelp
Literally the best meal of my life. If you don't like this, you are taste deaf. Best service!! The beer and jinro will save your life. Stop reading and come here. Uber was weird. Alysa is the top standard in dining. She is your culinary ambassador.

09/01/23 First time trying al a carte kbbq and I don't think I can go to an ayce kbbq now. Came in around 11 and was seated quick and the waitress was knowledgeable on what/how to order. She was attentive and cooked our whole meal set from start to finish. We had the pork/beef set and her grilling was spot on. Pork belly/pork jowl was crispy and juicy. Short rib was so tender and dripping in its own juice you could drink it. The amount of banchan you get is more than other kbbq places and each dish was made well. Had a side of spicy cold noodles (I recommend with grilled meat) which I can't eat kbbq without it now. The contrast of hot and cold, chewy and tender, smoky and tangy is something I still think about while writing this review. My only thing is that the vents weren't turned on that night so the restaurant got smoky while cooking meat. Overall, I would come back again no doubt I hope this review helps

Han C.

Yelp
Service is still great here, and I love that they cook for you. We got the second combo option this time with beef and pork, which was enough to feed three comfortably. I would recommend skipping the pork belly and the pork collar (definitely skip this) as it was very dry and hard to chew. The pork belly was okay - also dry, despite the bits of fat. Overall, the beef cuts were the best, especially the melt-in-your-mouth marinated beef.

Marcus R.

Yelp
Absolutely amazing service, good, and all around experience! Our server, Danny, not only ensured everything was cooked to perfection, but also explained everything he was doing along the way, provided background on how everything is made, and gave recommendations of what sides would pair best with each protein! Can't recommend enough!!

Alex Z.

Yelp
Best Korean BBQ around. The renovations are amazing and the quality of the food is top notch! Wood burning grills make everything even better. Highly recommend!

Kim L.

Yelp
Koryo is definitely a more upscale kbbq experience. It is more expensive than I am used to but we split the Koryo set among 7 people and we were all pretty full afterwards. The server cooks the meat for you on a charcoal grill. The meats were definitely flavorful, my favorite is the pork belly and galbi. The pork collar at the end was a bit tough. The banchan was really great too, I always love fish cake and they offered a potato banchan that my friends really enjoyed. The service here made it feel like a more special experience! Everyone greeted us when we came in and they gave us a private room even though we were a walk in. Also - the server told us they have had a famous kpop star come to the restaurant so it is definitely worth trying once.

Keene K.

Yelp
Fantastic! Great service. Great food! Advice: one side of the menu has bbq sets for meat grilled at your table. Really great, BUT this is not for just 2 people. You must order 2 sets, and each set can easily serve 2-3 people. That side of the menu is for groups no smaller than 4. Highly recommended.

Dat T.

Yelp
Of all the Korean BBQ in Dallas, Koryo is definitely one of the top. You definitely get what you pay for - it's more expensive than the chain options like Gen or Omi, but the quality here is fantastic. Cooking over actual coals that are ripping hot really gives the meat that smoky flavor that you want. In terms of meat quality - probably one of the best among the Kbbq places in Dallas. Where I think Koryo shines is the banchan; they had so many banchan dishes, from fresh raw garlic, to numerous pickled dishes, stews. They also came and refilled our entire banchan set when we asked at no extra charge. Service was attentive and prompt; our server came often to help us cook. It's not like Omi or Gen where you have to cook everything yourself. At the end, you also get a complimentary drink - it's served cold, and it's super refreshing and sweet. It was so pleasant that I had to look it up after we left. It's called "Sujeonggwa" - a dessert drink typically made of persimmon, ginger, cinnamon, and sugar. Overall, for around $50 a person for our particular order set (we got the silla BBQ set and split among 3 people), this might be one of the best quality per dollar option in DFW.

Authentic Korean food. Service was good and waitress was friendly. Ambiance was a typical Korean restaurant bad it was dated. Will go again when I'm in town.

Cat L.

Yelp
Was here for the hotpot but won over by the beef with octopus spicy stir fry Tong Nakji Galbi Jjim. The two times we ordered were both on the large size so the wait was a bit longer. I appreciate the server informed us this while we stare at every bbq uncooked plates that pass by our table. So kudos to good service. What's crucial at Korean restaurants? Side dishes! The place got AMAZING kimchee! I got me a piece of oyster in dat kimchee! now that's legit kimchee (I should ask if they sell their kimchee ) their cucumber kimchee were legit as well! Love love love! We only ask for 3-4 refill of those. The intestine hotpot was ...flavorful but I was not feeling it as much ‍I didn't like it that the presentation for this dish was lacking and would've taken off a star for presentation but the spicy dish that comes after that was so amazing this place got the 5! The Texas size serving might as well feed 4-6 people (lots and lots of rice to finish this off) Definitely need to come back for this spicy stirred fry dish with an army to help finish...did you see how the meat just fall apart under mah chopsticks, on top of dat white rice?

Jeannie L.

Yelp
Charges for 2nd banchan (side dishes) for $5-6 per refill, meat quality is significantly lower and bad, and service is slow and cooks our meat in the "simmer" charcoal heat. Compared to last time when we were here, this place has terribly gone down hill. They have kpop star's signatures on the wall to show the fame, but honestly, I'm so embarrassed that they came here and tried this place's food.

Kaylee N.

Yelp
We wanted to try out this place after seeing it on top restaurants by D Magazine and it did not disappoint! The food was delicious and the service was great. I was expecting to cook my own food on the grill but our server helped us the whole time. There were plenty of side dishes which is what I love! The restaurant is open and spacious and it was easy for us to get a table for weekend lunch for walk ins. Highly recommend!

Came here for lunch today because friend of mine had her son in town. The food is always great and the service is typically good but today the service was fantastic. Thank you Brandon for taking such a great care of us! We will definitely be back!

Hidden gem of Dallas! Great food and Atmosphere! Definitely try the beef tip anything and the seafood pancake

Jo P.

Yelp
Don't want to do any more damage to their dilapidated menus? + 1 order of marinated short ribs (Koryo's was the thickest and juiciest cuts I've had from any KBBQ) + 1 Japchae (still good the next day) + 1 Regular bulgogi (spicy option available but not preferred) With all the sides included in the meal, this is more than enough food for 2. Then, once the leftovers are gone and the smokiness has been washed from your hair and clothes, the memory of the meats will bring you back.

Herman X.

Yelp
First time in Texas and I choose this place. Authentic kbbq. They use charcoal grill! Was seated quickly. The inside location was very nice. We chose the bekjae bbq set. There was a lot of banchan. The server we had named Hannah and she was very attentive and cooked the food for us perfectly! What ever we needed she was right there ready to help. The pork bellys and short ribs were delicious. The meats were very fresh. Steamed eggs were delicious too. Would definitely come back here and will request Hannah to be our server again!

Gena D.

Yelp
The first thing I noticed coming in here was that it was really hot. They had a door propped open and it was a little hazy inside from the BBQ. Then on top of that, the grill at our table was even hotter. So overall, a pretty.. sweaty experience. For the price, the meat was pretty lacking. The marinated short ribs didn't taste marinated although we could smell the marinade cooking off. I liked the thin pork belly option as opposed to other places that only have thick pork belly. The banchan was also average. Our server Minnie deserves all the stars! She was so sweet and friendly. She cooked our meat to perfection while serving multiple other tables and getting everything we asked for promptly. The other servers were very friendly as well. Truthfully, I don't think this place is "upscale;" it's just expensive. The service was great though, so I'd come back knowing that I'll be well taken care of.

The original Koryo used to be amazing and always consistent on quality Korean food. It was my favorite Korean BBQ restaurant in DFW. Ever since new ownership took over, it hasn't been the same. The menu, interior decor, and pricing has been underwhelming. I decided to give this place another try recently after a year since my last visit, but I was still disappointed in the quality of the food. The kimchi and bean sprouts side dishes were too salty and the rice was too dry. I ordered the soft tofu soup with mackerel lunch special and I would rate it 3 out of 5. It ended up being a $20 meal and I don't feel like it was worth it.

Hanging out in Big D over July 4th week I visited several places. Koryo was one of the two best experiences I've had during my exploration. I would go back here in a heartbeat, and I plan on very soon. This place was awesome. Found them on Yelp, someone at work also mentioned their meat quality is very good here albeit a bit pricey. I was in the mood for good quality Korean BBQ and a great experience and I got that here. One hour left until closing they greeted me and sat me down. Went through the menu, I asked for the top sellers - it was the marinated beef and the dry aged beef (100 days). Ok - sounds good to me! I had them cook it for me since I was hungry and thought they could do a better and faster job cooking it. Out comes the sides - wow - this place won me over with the plethora of awesome side dishes they offered. I did not see anything comparable with other Korean BBQ places when I looked through their Yelp pictures, but this place has an awesome assortment - even roasted / grilled garlic! AWESOME! My meat comes out and it is fantastic. The Marinated Beef takes the cake - it was so damn good! The dry aged beef was tender, it melted in my mouth, it was so good and flavorful. I could not eat it all so they helped package it to go and I had it for dinner the next night - it was still awesome and flavorful! Held up great! I really enjoyed my experience here - the waitress was really helpful in choosing the best options for me, she was very friendly and nice. This place is superb and great quality too - they definitely met the hype and I highly recommend. I must go back here soon!

Probably the BEST Korean BBQ I've tried so far. I remember coming here 10 years ago on a trip. Had to give it another go. The banchan is fresh and delicious. The best cucumber kimchi we've ever had. Had an order of dolsot (hot clay pot) We also had the dry aged ribeye and smoked beef rib. The presentation and service is excellent. The smoked ribs were juicy and tender. I got a bit smoked out but I don't mind. Will be back.

Food is as good as it gets for a casual Korean bbq. Had the japchae; seafood pancake; short ribs and ribeye ala carte. All excellent Service is standard Ambiance is was also quiet since we also went around 2 pm on a weekday:

One of my favorite places to eat very high quality Korean BBQ. Today just ate light with kimchi jigae (kimchi stew) and spicy galbi jjim (spicy short ribs). Both highly recommend. Food and banchan (side dishes) are good. Service is good as well.
