Was really excited to try this place, as I love Korean food. Managed to get a table on a Saturday night around 7:00 with no wait, which was nice and a bit unexpected. Sat by the garage doors (this is important for later) which we thought would be cool. K Pop on big screens as well as the playoff basketball game, all in all, a cool vibe.
Ordered the LA Galbi and the sweet and spicy Korean fried chicken. A little disappointed that the Korean BBQ dish didn't come with rice and they didn't even ask if we wanted any. Also, we got like three banchan items, which was a bummer, and the amount of galbi wasn't all that much. Still, it was tasty, and we ordered a side of rice. Kimchi was good, and the tofu marinaded in some chili paste was also nice, but, that was kind of it for sides, and that's one of my favorite parts of Korean bbq! I think I'd stick with more old school Korean spots for BBQ before going back. The chicken was super crispy and tasty and spicy enough, but the sauce was *super* sweet, a bit too much for my taste. (It was also super sticky, so I'd bring hand wipes if I ate here again. It just made the napkins stick to my hands when I tried to clean them.)
All in all, I don't regret going, and if a group of friends wanted to try it, I'd probably give it another go to sample more of their dishes, but for dinner for two, I think I'd rather try somewhere else.
Service was friendly and prompt, everything appeared clean and well kept and I don't think the food was BAD, but I just wasn't vibing here. They also opened the garage doors for some reason on a chilly night, and I just had a t shirt on, so it got uncomfortably cold as we were wrapping up.
