    The server couldn’t answer any questions about the menu and I don’t think the food is a good value for the price.

    This is a casual, family-friendly restaurant, and we’re very happy to have a Korean barbecue spot in Park Slope. We eat Korean barbecue frequently, and while the food here is consistently delicious and the quality of the meat is very good, the service has been quite slow. Refills are infrequent, drinks take a long time to arrive, and even getting the check processed takes longer than expected. We’ve visited twice. On our first visit, our server overcooked and burned the meat, which unfortunately ruined it, so on our second visit, we chose to cook it ourselves. The food is excellent overall, so we truly hope the service improves.

    They changed the fried chicken to be only wings, which was disappointing! We had galbi, grilled at the table, and the person grilling was also training a new employee, which is fine, but he did it so loudly that it was impossible for us to do anything but watch. It was extremely disruptive.

    A great place for a group meal or celebration. The food is always delicious. It’s fun to watch the servers cooked the barbecue over the table and the karaoke rooms are a blast. Highly recommend.

    food quality has gone down, the bibimbap was not good - unseasoned carrots sliced on a bias, cherry tomatoes, do not really go with a mixed rice concept. the amount of times we had to ask for sauces, rice, banchan ruins the feeling of having an abundant experience. its decent for people who are trying korean bbq for the first time but as a seasoned korean bbq diner, it fell short.
