Woobling Korean BBQ - Tacoma Mall

Had a fantastic experience! The service was top-notch—staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The food came out quickly, and everything was fresh and delicious. You could tell they really care about customer satisfaction. Great atmosphere, clean space, and they checked in just enough to keep the grills hot and the sides flowing. Definitely one of the better Korean BBQ spots I’ve been to. Highly recommend!

Upon returning to the Pacific Northwest, I had lunch with my son at NotsWoobling Korean BBQ - Tacoma (formerly Knot), a newly opened all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ restaurant in the Tacoma Mall. The establishment offers exceptional value with a diverse menu, starting at a competitively priced $27 (though I anticipate a price increase given its competitiveness). Options range up to $49, including premium selections such as shrimp, while our choices included the standard baby octopus, beef bulgogi, and pork belly. The kimchi was particularly noteworthy, and the accompanying soju, a smooth 21% alcohol beverage comparable to vodka, complemented the meal. The interactive dining experience, featuring table-side cooking of raw meats, is enhanced by the shared menu requirement, allowing for unlimited refills of both meats and appetizers. The overall experience was exceptional, earning a five-star rating. I highly recommend Nots, especially for a shared dining experience. Like I always say, everything is better shared.

Went opening week. They're awesome. Good food. Highly recommend. I think the first few cuts were kinda tough I'm ngl. I think it was just a one off thing because the rest of the prime beef brisket cuts were good. There was 9 of us but they served us quick. 20% service charge for big groups.

First time here and won’t return. Was super excited to try this place out. You order on a tablet at your table and the bring it out to you. Good concept but not good when you plates keep getting forgotten. A lot of items that we ordered never got brought to our table and it got too frustrating to keep letting our waiter know more and more food and the same drink was forgotten. One of our drinks and our rice for the table took 30 minutes to get to us and multiple reminders to the waiter even after ordering it which was just a sprite. The overall quality of food wasn’t worth returning for. I don’t often push away a plate of fish cakes but they were gross. Better off going to chosen in federal way as it’s always good and great easy service.

Took our 3 kids (4yo, 2yo, and 7 month) and they really enjoyed the sides of rice and noodles and ate soooo many of the fish cakes! We loved everything even the spicy meats (which we didn’t think were spicy). Everyone was kind and on a Friday evening we didn’t have a wait, but we did come early… when leaving at 6:40 ish it was full. I think the only improvement (and maybe they have this and we didn’t see it) but we wish we had a seasoning tray to fix up the meat a bit more to our liking. For example make the “spicy” meats more of a spicy for our taste.

This was truly a humbling experience. I’ve never had this type of service at a KBBQ spot my entire 35 years of life born and raised in Ktown/LA. Let’s start with the POS system that immediately broke at first order. Props to whoever is trying to usher in a digital revolution in ordering food, but let’s not compromise the waitstaff to get there. Why is the staff struggling to take manual orders and communicate orders to the kitchen? Why doesn’t the staff know the menu items by name and only by arbitrary numbers? It took over an hour to get two rounds of food, and that was after constantly waving down staff playing 20 questions. Many customers just left. The service was pretty egregious overall even by non-KBBQ standards. It was clear the staff relied heavily on the digital ordering system and did not know how to adapt to manual orders, which is bizarre for any restaurant. But by KBBQ standards, the service was atrocious. I should never have to ask for water, a clean grill plate, napkins, or other miscellaneous items. Saturday night in LA would destroy this restaurant. The digital ordering service was underwhelming. I think it’s a great idea in theory, but if and when it fails, you need to have a backup plan. The staff is not trained adequately to deal with emergencies, and this is not their fault; this is the fault of the owner. It is quite a shame because the food was absolutely delicious, including the side dishes and stews. Also, to top it off, there was no toilet paper in the women’s restroom.

Me and my children put our name on the waiting list at 8:58 p.m. there were several signs outside the building that said happy hour starts at 9:00 p.m. We were told by the manager Kelly that there was no happy hour and the sign was wrong and that the kitchen closed at 9:30. There were several menus that also said that happy hour was from 9:00 p.m. to close Monday through Friday for $19.95. Kelly stated that all the signs were wrong and that she did not know why they had made all the signs. She would not honor the sine of 1995 for the happy hour.

We came here close to opening … tbh we didn’t know what to expect. It is a traditional Korean BBQ, which I didn’t know means you cook the raw meat! Ok call me sheltered! It was a lot of fun and very tasty. The kids liked it and we all got super full. My advice… trust that you will get enough to eat. Must be at least 2 to dine here.

Spectacular service! Great food. My partner and I had a wonderful experience. Fun vibe and atmosphere. Bobby is the Freaking man!! Thank you for ensuring that we had a memorable experience.

Key takeaways: not worth the cost, portion sizes are not uniform, limited to 6 dishes every 7 minutes. Went to this restaurant for the first time about a week and a half ago. It was my wife and I with 2 friends. There was no wait to be served. They had plenty of tables open, but decided to sit us next to another group, and the booth side of the table only has one way to get in and out due to how they plumbed the gas lines. The waitress introduced herself and we let her knkw it was our first time there. She explained the menu and stated that they have a limit of 6 items max per order, and that we could reorder after 7 minutes. She stated the servings were good sized, so we ordered the premium. We got some rice, wagyu steak bites and beef strips. When the dishes came out it was surprising to us how small they were, considering there was 4 of us sharing the 6 items. The fried rice was good but was not big enough for 4. The steak bites weren't worth the premium cost, never had wagyu beef that was bristle and so fatty. The portion gave each of us 2 small pieces each. We ordered other items over the course of our dinner. About the 4th order we ordered another fried rice and some corn cheese. The corn cheese came out in a mini cast iron skillet which would have been good for one person, not 4. It was good. The second order of fried rice was twice the size of the first, and we only order 1 of it. We asked the waitress why the sizes seemed to be getting bigger the longer we stayed and kept ordering. She couldn't answer that question. That serving of fried rice made us watch the sizes of other dishes. In general, the sizes of the dishes were slowly getting larger the longer we ate. The only thing that makes sense with this business practice is they have on their menu any leftovers would be charged $25 per plate. So, they increase the chances of being able to do that by starting with small dishes that make you order more when the 7 minutes were up. As you get to the end of the meal, if you aren't careful, the serving sizes are so much, that you could easily fall into the trap they have laid. Oh, and you cant take the food you have to pay extra for home, no takeout. Ordering food was done via a table touchscreen which was not easy to navigate. Our waitress wasnt really paying much attention to things, especially when we wanted our check.

Five stars - great This was my first time going to a Korean BBQ. We went in blind, so we had no clue what to do, what to order, etc. Our waitress was very friendly. She didn't do the best job of explaining how the menu worked (there was a little language barrier), but we ultimately figured it out. I'll do my best to explain how things work. Essentially, you can order a variety of meats and appetizers, which are separated into three categories. If you purchase the higher tier, you not only have access to the meats/appetizers of that tier, but also any tier below it. You get unlimited food for two hours. During that time, you can cook and eat a variety of meats that are available in your selected tier. You could order three dishes and three sides at a time. Despite not knowing how things worked, we had a great experience. We got the first tier ($35 per person), and we were satisfied with our options, but we will definitely get a higher tier next time we go. We got three rounds of food, and we were stuffed. It was really fun cooking the meats while we enjoyed our appetizers and drinks. This is the perfect restaurant for catching up with friends and family because you will be there a while. I would recommend going with an empty stomach. We will certainly be going back!

I should start out with the good. The lady who served us was very friendly. The restaurant was very new and clean, much like your typical modern Korean restaurant. And the price point for their happy hour can't be beat. $19.99 is pretty amazing. The food however was not the best. The banchan wasn't very good and the brisket was not quality. You have a 2 hour time limit and we felt like we were waiting a long time for our orders. At Korean BBQs we are often waiting for the food to cook, but here we were spending more of the time waiting for the uncooked food to even arrive. It felt like an Americanized KBBQ which is on par for Tacoma Mall I suppose. If the server wasn't so friendly and the price wasn't so good, I would rate it lower.

New BBQ spot in Tacoma Mall Area! The wait was roughly 10 minutes on a weekday evening for 2. The service was okay as well! The server occasionally check on us but we mainly used the call server button! We opted for the Signature choice selection and it was decently worth.. The meat/food portions per order are a good size for having a bite and trying a variety of different dishes! When the store is busy, it does take quite a long time for the meat/food orders to come out to our table.. but it's understandable. I would come again before their Grand Opening specials are over! Decent pricing!

Great new spot and location in Tacoma Mall. The restaurant is clean with nice ambiance. Sadly, the food quality was not the greatest, with mediocre cuts of meat. If you're looking for ambiance, then this is the best spot around. But if you're looking for higher quality Korean bbq, you're better off at New Gangnam BBQ and other Korean BBQs nearby.

Reviews says this place is tasteless with bad service. Someone please tell me, why is there's a line out the door waiting on service. Will report back once I get in. WTF

Gathered a group of friends here. Haven't been to the Tacoma mall in years. The majority of the meat selections were great, but some of the other side dishes were quite questionable. We had 5 at our table, and they all said the kimchi jjigae tasted like tomato soup. We also ordered one of the marinated meats, I forget which one, but we told our server we didn't like the taste of it because if you leave food behind, you have to pay. He brought the owner, or chef out, who asked a few questions but said it was fine to remove it from our table without billing it. They offer a variety of side dishes that our normal kbbq place didn't, so we wanted to try it out. I've been to the one in Bellevue with family so I already knew what to expect but it's nice to have another in the Tacoma area, I just absolutely hate mall parking. Come early so you get a table.

went there last night for first time. I paid a premium to cook flavorless meat.......:( i was surpised how many people were waiting to get a table. these kind of Korean BBQ's have been around on S. Tacoma way for years. not sure what the big draw is. not going back.

It was pretty clean, and nice. But my seafood pancake never came, which I'm pretty sad about. Some meats were good, some were ok, but I don't remember, since I was too hungry and busy gulping down my dinner.

To start, the food was definitely delicious, the sauces surprisingly were very good too usually i don't even touch them but i ended ip finishing mine. we split the cost between 4 people and the total was very cheap for us. Our server was amazing, funny and attentive . Explained the whole ordering processes, made sure we had any and everything we needed and constantly checked up on us! It was a Friday evening so it was quite busy, we did wait in line for about 20ish mins but again it is a new restaurant so there's going to be a crowd.

Food is great! Price is great too! Can't beat $27 Wish there was more marinated options for the classic meals. And more sauces and sides!

Partner and I love getting Korean barbecue and wanted to try this place for the first time during their lunch happy hour. Super cute place. The happy hour lunch meat selection was slim and was a little disappointed about the Banchan (small side dishes) almost every korean bbq place that we've ever eaten at has more than three options and here we got bean sprouts, broccoli, and kimchi, which were all mediocre. Really like that you could order from a little tablet and that they offer all the dipping sauces. we had a couple bites of chicken left on the grill and was almost charged a $25 fee for not finishing it so my partner just tried his best to finish so we wouldn't be charged never experiences at other places so just be aware. we don't plan on coming back, but I think it's reasonable for $20 during happy hour and service was great even though no one came to turn our stove on despite the meat coming out, but that's OK. We eventually ask someone.

We came in and were seated within 15 minutes. That was about the only thing that went well. From missing items to turning down our heater when we were not looking so that the food takes longer to cook. They pull the ultimate bait and switch on you. The menu items look completely different from the items that they bring you (classic all you can eat $35 per person) 2 times they forgot to send us meat that was marinated. And they told us if we dont finish our meat we have to pay an additional $25. (6 tiny peices of beef) just seemed like the whole time I was thinking how much of a ripoff this was for $70 plus tax for 2 people. Definitely will not be going here again. If you want to go to a Korean BBQ all you can eat that actually gives you good portions and actually cares about how they prepare their meats go to the one on south tacoma way by H mart.

Celebrating my nieces birthday, my husband and I treated her to Korean BBQ. There was a line that was about a 20 minute wait before we got seated for three. It was clear and unfortunate they were under staffed on a weekend. We ordered the signature meat option which has a great variety of various meat types. We ordered white rice to go with our meats. The wait for rice was 30 minutes and we were almost finished with our first round of meat before getting the rice at our table. When we ordered new meat options it arrived at the table quickly, but it was a bummer we had lots of meat with no rice that we ordered to make it a meal. I will try this place again in a few months once it's more put together, it seems the mall location may have new management?

Bella Thorne is an awesome and attentive staff member! She made our experience here so fun and enjoyable. I'd rate 4 star, but with Bella as our person.. it's a 5 star! There was no wait and we never were without even with the 7 minute delayed ordering time. We did the Classic food menu for AYCE $27. It was good. We had our fill of brisket, pork belly, steak along with cocktails. The meats were okay. The marinated meats lacked flavor but we were able to get more sauces to flavor them up a bit more. The environment is clean and bright. It's very hip and contemporary. The bar is beautiful. Cocktails were good. The staff members also changed out our drill often so it wouldn't be too smoky. That was very nice.

Been there twice already with my partner and it's a good spot. It's very convenient and I do like the set up for ordering through the app. I'd rather not have the default all-you-can-eat option and just order like regular Korean places with more banchan, however, for about 30-35 bucks per person, and the food you get, it comes about the same if gone to a regular restaurant. The 7 dish per order limit is alright bc as long as you can finish it, you can keep ordering more dishes to replace it. It's a good way to make sure you don't binge. If you order lots of food and don't finish them, you are penalized so don't be wasteful. Would come back for lunch or dinner when in the area. If you are close to Federal Way or Lakewood, there are better option.

Came here for a late Father's Days dinner. This is the second time here but this time, it was under new management. It is now AYCE. Not bad for the price but I felt that the side dishes were not that great, the service was mediocre, had to ask for water refills, and yeah just pretty much mediocre all the way around. Maybe if they stepped up the side dishes, it would've gotten a better rating for me. ...

Absolutely appalling experience. We had one of the most disgusting and infuriating experiences at this restaurant. A cleaner carelessly threw a filthy, smelly black rag onto a black sofa seat. Unfortunately, one of our friends didn't notice and sat directly on it, which left their pants dirty and reeking. We immediately called for assistance. The cleaner didn't speak English, so a manager came over. Shockingly, instead of apologizing, the manager gave zero acknowledgment of any wrongdoing. He implied the mess was quickly cleaned up because our group was large, and somehow shifted the blame onto us -- as if it was our fault for sitting there. When we asked, "Are you seriously suggesting this is our fault?", the manager sarcastically responded with, "So what do you want me to do?" in the most dismissive tone. We were disgusted -- both by the filth and the attitude. We told him we were leaving, and he made a rude hand gesture signaling us to go, like he was happy to see us leave. Not a single word of apology from beginning to end. This is, without exaggeration, the worst customer service I've experienced in years. It ruined the entire mood for our group outing. I would strongly not recommend this place for any group gathering or celebration. The management is unprofessional and the attitude is downright offensive.

We went for my son's 21st birthday with a group a large group of people. We were sat at 3 tables, but said everyone in the party has to order the same level, not the same as the table as previously told. No big deal, we upgraded for a little more since some of the party wanted the signature, not the classic. Each table has a tablet & you can only order 6 things at once. If there are 4 people at your table, you get each can get your choice of meat, but then only 2 would get their sides at the same time. The drinks are extra. Nothing was explained well & the tablet at our table battery died mid order so as our other tables are already getting their orders to cook their proteins, we're still waiting for our machine to be fixed. When ours finally came out after everyone was already eating theirs, my protein was missing so I stepped away & went to the bathroom. My son's friend asked the server how long approximately to cook his meat, the guy had just came back with my protein & just through everything on the burner & walked off. well 2 of us were away from the table & he never answered the question. Bobby was rude from the very beginning. Since it was my son's birthday, he was trying new drinks since it was his 1st time drinking. His first drink was good, but the 2nd one had glass in it. My son told the server & he asked if he wanted another one, he said no,but the guy's attitude was horrible all night. My sister said I hope he won't be charged for that drink & thats the least they could do since he could have been injured by drinking glass. The guy bounced back asking what do you mean by that?! Rude af! That maybe since you've been rude, horrible service, machines not working properly, mediocre meat, and possible injury that maybe they could compensate a little. duh! We get the bill & they will only split a check no matter what 3 ways no matter how big the party. They tried to charge us for my mom who didn't even come bc she was sick so an extra adult practically $50 & they initially tried trying for my niece who's a toddler who slept the entire time & didn't eat. They only took off the drink with glass in it. He counted the people finally & took off the adult that wasn't there & still argued about the kid who slept the whole time. It was absolutely one of the worst restaurant services that i've ever experienced. Rude af, mediocre food, no explanations, only so many things at once no matter how many people at table- that system sucks, glass in drink, extra charges. Oh, and if you order & you have anything left you're charged an additional $25 so my boyfriend left hungry bc he knew he couldn't finish it all on his own. I will never return there! Stay away!

Service was quick and friendly. Food was good. The corn, marinated rib, fried rice and jowl were standouts.

We had the Grand Opening price of the Classic AYCE, great value, even at full price of $35.. Side dishes were all tasty, and the meats were good. Service is quite fast and all staff were attentive and friendly. Will definitely come back!

Honestly this was the most disappointing Korean BBQ experience I've had. Something was just off with the quality of the meat ...it didn't taste fresh and the texture wasn't right either. While I understand that time limits for all-you-can-eat are common, the portion sizes here were surprisingly small. They also restrict how many plates you can order at once and make you wait a set amount of time before placing another order which felt frustrating and inefficient. Several dishes we ordered either came out extremely late or never arrived at all. To make matters worse, service was pretty lackluster. Since they automatically include gratuity regardless of party size, it felt like the servers weren't motivated to provide attentive or helpful service which unfortunately aligned with our experience. Wouldn't recommend this spot, especially with so many better options out there.

Woobling was my first experience with Korean BBQ, and I loved it. It was great that there was little interaction with the servers because I was struggling yesterday, and peopling was hard. However, Kelly was very helpful when we did need her and has a wonderful smile. You can also read my review on my blog: The Toxic's Not So Secret Diary. https://thetoxicsnotsosecretdiary.wordpress.com/2025/08/07/eatsplore-with-the-toxics-woobling-korean-bbq/

This was my first time back after their rebranding and I enjoyed it! The price, in my opinion, is more than reasonable since they have many options! We just went with the Classic, but I hope to come back and try the Premium! Place is still clean, good service, no complaints! I'd recommend giving it a try!

Our waiter was kind of rude and we were very patient and then our tablet decided to have a glitch and basically turn off and then we had to restart the order all over again and then on top of it we asked what time or temperature or how long should this be cooked and the guy just threw it on the thing without even hesitation And then didn't tell us how long we should cook it for at all basically the food was OK, but the guy had a real ego and I wish he would've just been more professional and that's it

This restaurant looks great, and honestly I thought the people were nice when we could interact with them. That being stated they over relied on their technology ordering setup which didn't function properly and orders were way behind or didn't arrive at all. We had to repeatedly ask for our drinks and orders even after waiting 20 min for them and still 2 dishes that we followed up on never arrived. The food when it did come was good, but we also had problems with the stove going out. We spent more time waiting for the food we ordered than actually eating and enjoying it, and I'm not sure but I think the staff is just overwhelmed and not keeping up and relying on the technology ordering setup. At the end they even messed up the ticketing for our table and had to wring everything up multiple times. I would only go if you had a very small party 3 at most else you will have a bad time trying to get the things you ordered, and there are just more reliable Korean bbq restaurants in the area. There are 3 off the top of my head in Lakewood alone minutes away from this location.

Amazing experience at Woobing AYCE. One of the best experiences we had. We were immediately seated and the server gave us a small break down on how to order on the tablet. We order the $27/per person box which was perfect size since we can't eat pork or seafood. We were full by the first round anyways. The staff was helpful and friendly. On the tablet attached to the table you can order up to 8 items (4 of which are protein) we loved all the sides that came with it including there house made kimchee (yumm) we got 2 rounds of that. They provided a change of your grill too you will need to the tablet and request it under "call server" really cool features and overall easy to access and use. We ordered the beef belly, steak cubes, beef bulgogi! All were perfect for us. Check it out before the prices change. Located on Tacoma mall parking near BJ's previous called The Knot! Total bill for both of us was $70 including tip.

My friend and I had lunch here yesterday. We opted for the basic Ayce menu. We ordered pork belly, top sirloin, bulgogi and chicken. The pork belly and top sirloin were our favorite. The banchan was a good basic variety that wasn't spicy. We also ordered a salad, gyozas and noodles. Everything came out quickly. They changed the grill a few times during our lunch. We had a great experience and will be back.

Food: Meat was good, but needed more flavour for the marinade meats. I make better, more flavorful asian marinades at home, and that's not a gun feeling. The spicy ones arent super spicy, but the flavour is way more on point as a whole. We mostly ordered these, even with a medium heat tolerance little girl with us. The sides... are all simple. There are much better sides at other Korean BBQ restaurants. It's, again, the lack of flavour more than the actual dish that's a problem. That said, you can get the basic for $30 per person, which during the grand opening, that's a great price. *** Edit: Went back, and it's improved, in some ways.

Horrendous and douchy employees, especially a man with a bald head, kept staring at us wanting us to leave EVEN THOUGH the lady insisted on us staying to finish our food, lovely lady, horrendous white male trying to get in the way of us finishing our meal. And even as we paid unsatisfied he had the audacity to say "your not eating that? It's 25 dollars!??" Really dude, you just pushed us out and now your pulling that, pathetic honestly, and even when I was about to leave, the lady pulled me in and said "your not finishing the food?" And I explained how he kept staring at us and "imitating" us, she tried to cover for him but everyone at my table saw it. Making us pay an extra 25 dollars which should not have happened. Never go here, foods mediocre at best anyway.

There not many ppl but order come out so late and all the meat come same time. I can't eat at once I'm not food fighter. Horrible Horrible experience!!! Beware!

So 100% recommend to you if you love Korean bbq and great place to with family and spend some bonding time

We went during happy hour Monday-Friday 11-3pm and got the happy hour AYCE for $19.99/person. It consisted of Brisket, Pork Belly, Pork Shoulder, and 3 different marinated/spiced chicken thighs. They have a tablet at each table to order. You order up to 6 items at a time. The meats were good quality. The sides (banchans) were great, especially the kimchi is freshly made since it has not become fermented yet. Our server Kelly was attentive and very hospitable. The grills had the intake built into the table. You won't smell like Korean bbq when you walk out. They have a really good ventilation system.

First time here, ordered the signature, $45/person. Seems like lots of food choices but once you start going thru the menu and you start eating, it is not good and you are left wondering what to order. Rib finger was too rubbery and hard, prime beef brisket was cut too big with too much fat making it hard to chew And barely able to swallow. Realizing meat quality was not good, started exploring non meat options. I mean we paid so we had to eat something. Kimchi fried rice had teriyaki sauce with frozen corns and peas, soy bean paste soup looked like soup with beef fat, sent it back only to have it back looking the same gross fatty soup again. Resulted in eating white rice and even tried pho and kimchi stew and they were both made with premade soup stock and left over beef fats. This place gives korean barbeque a very bad name. Was so excited to come here, the vibe was good but food was not even mediocre. Will not be coming here again.

So We won't be going back, and I cannot recommend it to my friends, but wanted to leave a review to explain why. We were having late lunch/early dinner, 3pm on a Wednesday. Two other tables were occupied in the restaraunt. We ordered the classic menu. It has a good amount of choices. Before tip is $59.56 for 2. The good: the restaurant was clean and the bathrooms are clean. The wait staff is really friendly. The less than good: The food simply doesn't taste good. I can get better fish cakes at the grocery store. The brocoli salad was odd, and the potato salad is just cold mashed potatos with some canned corn. Super bland and just not great. There is an older Asian lady who kept asking us if we were finished yet? When in fact... no we weren't finished yet we just had to wait a long time between food sets. In fact we almost left. And when i complained two meats were brought out at the same time (after about 25 min) when the food was brought out the same lady who kept asking if we were done came by when our food arrived and turned our grill down so low the food wouldn't cook. That was super odd. I just turned it back up so the grill was hot enough. Is that strategy or incompetence? I'm not sure. If there is a 2 hour maximim and they let you order once every 15 minutes but only bring the food out every 25 minutes and have the grill so low it doesn't cook well??? We had time for questions. There are much better flavorful choices for Korean BBQ on STW. My husband and I had time to chat while waiting for food that we don't think this place will survive with the way they run the business now. This is probably super American but I like rice with my meat. It came after the first round was over. It was hard and luke warm. There is no seasoning on any kind on anything here. We asked for chili sauce. It never came. If you like mediocre bulgogi you will find it here.

Portioning is terrible and having to wait in between having to order is insane, also being told that not enough grills so you can repl

Food was good no complaints. Service was okay. They didn't come to our table as much as we liked. And a lot of stuff that we ordered didn't end up coming which was fine because we were very full. Loved their ordering system. Each table had a tablet to order food so we didn't need to interact with our server. Quality of their meats were great. I would compare this place to Gen KBBQ but a bit better in terms of quality. Overall I think they just need to make sure every item ordered gets delivered and checking up on their customers more often! Solid spot would come again. Also I hate their chopsticks. They're very heavy and hard to grab stuff with. Ended up asking for a fork for the first time ever at KBBQ

As a first time visitor, Ana was a great server and exceeded our expectations from the beginning, she was very attentive and helpful! The food was great quality and loved all the vibes from the atmosphere and servers !

This place has become one of our go-to's since changing from the Knot. Lots of options for cuts of meat and other non bbq dishes. Especially a fan of their Tofu stew. Very clean. Rarely had we have waited for extended period for seating. When putting orders in for next round of meat, it comes out fairly quickly. Pricing is extremely fair.

Happy hour from 9 to close M-F is the best deal for kbbq goers especially if you just eat brisket and pork belly. The high balls are great as well that get the job done.

Our server was kind of all over the place. Kept forgetting our drinks. One of the drinks ended up free in the end because he literally didn't bring it till we were finished eating. They have three options to choose from. We went with the second one because the the basic option didn't have good options. I don't even think they had chicken. You can order 3 meats at a time and obviously whatever you don't eat, they charge an extra $25. Long story short, I've had better and won't be returning.

Idk what time they stop seating people but we got there an hour before closing and they said it was too late

Food -was ok some little need more marination . Service , is ok they're be times we will wait for a while .. Ambiance is new so it's good, just that they open some doors making the place very cold !

If we could leave a "no star " review we would- We arrived around 7:15 added our party of 4 to the waitlist. We were quoted 14-24 minute wait; that turned into a 45 minute wait. Understandable people want to relax - Once seated our server quickly ran through the ordering process. We had a few questions and had to flag our server down, which proved to be difficult. After we placed our initial order, we received a mystery meat. We ordered the beef bulgogi and received what appeared to be some form of pork. And if it was the beef - just don't order it and we hope we survive what we did it - Our drinks took quite some time to get to us, along with our white rice order. Upon further inspection our rice had a hair in it. At that point we probably should have called it quits - being from culinary backgrounds we try to be understanding but this ship was sinking quick. We again, flagged down someone to explain and to ask for new rice to which then he never returned. We had to ask our server for the new rice and eventually got a small scoop of rice in a small dish, not the comparable size of the rice we initially ordered. Portion sizes were inconsistent. Meat was poor quality -We didn't receive at least four of the items we ordered. The whole experience was as lackluster. It took 25+minutes to get our check. Only after we had to ask the hostess to find our server and ask for the check- The server was nowhere to be found and the other waitstaff were busy with their own tables. 0/10 would not recommend if you're looking for prompt service, consistent portion sizes and to get all the things you actually ordered.

We got the premium level. $49 per person. A great Korean BBQ place in Tacoma - all you can eat!!!! Check this place out. It's worth it

Me and my children put our name on the waiting list at 8:58 p.m. there were several signs outside the building that said happy hour starts at 9:00 p.m. We were told by the manager Kelly that there was no happy hour and the sign was wrong and that the kitchen closed at 9:30. There were several menus that also said that happy hour was from 9:00 p.m. to close Monday through Friday for $19.95. Kelly stated that all the signs were wrong and that she did not know why they had made all the signs. She would not honor the sine of 1995 for the happy hour.

Meat was nice quality, came out fast, server was very attentive. Missed some items but came out when we reordered. Thought the 6 item at a time limit was not enough but it worked out well. We were stuffed. Would come again for ayce

Food quality and service time is not good. Too oily and food takes a very long time to come out even with constant follow up.
