Great price for buffet bbq but service is bad!!

by angelbaby713

For the price of hot pot and bbq of roughly $17 per person(adult) its not bad. The meat is not marinated but there are sauces you can dip them into. There are many different types of meat, veggies,seafood you can put into the hotpot.

The service is bad. Why is that? There is this one particular waitress who works there, she treats me and my family horribly. She is a short asian lady in her mid 40's. Its her voice when she talks to us, its like loud and intimidating and she demand we give her an increase in gratutity, when she was ignorant. I mean after all, we are the customers.

• Pros: Fresh seafood and veggies
• Cons: Service is bad

This is not Korean BBQ

by jinkywonny

First of all, this is not Korean BBQ. If you think its korean BBQ, you have never had Korean BBQ. Trust me. I'm a native. If you want Korean BBQ in a traditional wood fire setting, try Young Bin Kwan in Jenkintown, or any place on north 5th street and upper dardby. There is nothing in Center City.

Otherwise, the food is reasonably priced and good quality. Its a great place to go when my wife and I are hungry. It is good quality

• Pros: Cheap food
• Cons: food is not the best

A little bit of Korea in the US

by ASM2

I was looking for authentic Korean BBQ and I found it. I do not want to sound pretentious, but base on my experiences in Korea and conversation with Koreans this is as close as I have found to the real deal. The BBQ in the name is a little misleading as in the US people sometimes say BBQ when they actually mean grilled. I have traveled to Korea several times on business to Ulsan, Busan and Soal and have eaten in at least 5 different BBQ restaurants, and have checked out many more. It is served in a slightly different style in almost every one, some serving only one type of meat others several different types i.e. beef, pork, chicken, some with several different types of leafy greens to wrap the meats and vegetables in, others no leafy greens only meats and vegetables, some with sea food, some with hot-pot, some with a gas grill others have wood or charcoal fire. All have one thing in common, for each patron there are several small bowls with various sauces, many dishes with veggies, meats and various other hopefully eatable items. Nothing marinated or coated in heavy sauces though, that is Americanized Asian food.

As the name states it is a blend of Asian foods, but again based on my experiences in Korea they capture the Korean style BBQ excellently. I have not tried any of the other dishes on the menu but will return to do so. (If I can turn down another opportunity to have BBQ) I was primarily interested in finding a place were I could share my experience in Korea with my family and friends and I have found it. We had the BBQ dinner for 6, with included a large tray of meats, and a large tray of sea food, an appetizer and the salad bar, and several other item witch now escape me The service and hospitality were great, all the food was very, very fresh or I would have left. No it is not spectacular but it is a lot of fun and quite a unique experience.
