food was great but service and attention given to customers will definitely need improvement. understand that they are busy but somehow attentiveness and response to customers is a plus point. luckily the korean boss and lady boss saved the day. they are responsive to my request. thumbs up for them!

It was a busy Sunday afternoon. Thus service wasnt that awesome. I asked for some condiments but it never came. I think I asked from the boss. So minus points for that. Food wise, it's good and I'll definitely be back for more rounds.

Food and drinks and atmosphere was amazing as usual, it’s my fourth of fifth time here this year so I guess that says how good this place is 😂 But I waited super long this time BUT the boss is really amazing and gave us free drinks :’)

Service was a little slow and the quality of food isn’t as great as what everyone makes it out to be. The kimchi pancake was especially a disappointment. Way too starchy and we couldn’t even taste the kimchi in it. It just tasted like flour.

Food was good - especially the pork belly and chicken. Didnt quite like the beef brisket though. Appetizers and egg were also free flow and delicious. Food however does take a while to cook as they use charcoal but that was no problem for us. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. Our charcoal was replaced timely and bbq plate was also changed frequently which was great. I really appreciated the service and the politeness, and I did not experience the negativity of what was mentioned in other reviews. Also the best thing was that GST was absorbed so there was just a 10% serviceBe sure to make a reservation before going down, especially on Friday nights.

Had the buffet dinner option. The top ups of the banchan was quick and the Pork collar is my fav pick for re-ordering as well as the beef! The only downside is the noise level as voices of diners bounces around the interior and makes communication a challenge at the table itself. I will still strongly recommend people to go for the food!

We made a booking, got there 5min early and didn't have to wait long. my friends and I find the meat well marinated and fresh. The service was great, the staff were very prompt and helpful. The sound level was slightly high but it is to be expected. Overall it feels cosy and but not claustrophic. I would go back again. and bring friends there. Think its well worth the money.

Dependably good as usual! The equipment and all were recently upgraded. The quality of the meat has improved. Pity the beef brisket is not free flow. I like the new egg mixture as it is more watery now and more like steamed egg

Given that there is a time limit, quite frustrating that the staff kept forgetting our orders and we waited half an hour for our meat to be delivered to our table.

It would be great if more food rather than all meat is listed under the dinner buffet menu. The restaurant could mix stew with BBQ together as a package.

Meat given was generous and quality is better than other Korean BBQ buffets that I've been to.
