This place has changed a lot since I last came here. Looks like the place was renovated with a clean look and an open concept. I'm glad to see that they still offer valet parking but I haven't had any issues the last two times I came here. Things we ordered: 1. galbi - I did not have but it was liked on the table. 2. samgyupsal - I did not have but it was liked on the table. 3. fried mackerel - a large portion and grilled maybe slightly over. But I did not mind it. 4. soonduboo jigae - I actually liked it here. Pretty flavorful. 5. duboo kimchi - I did not have but every liked it. Has some duk into too. 6. bibim naengmyun - disappointing as it had no flavor and noodles were overcooked. Banchan here was overall good but not the best that I've had. The first time we came they gave us free spicy gejang which was nice. I think the real knock here is the service. They often miss and forget things that you ask for. We had to flag them a few times. Overall, I'd go back and would recommend.

I've always wanted to try this place out since it's been here forever, so I made it a deal to go for Valentines day. Food was quite good and portions were alright. We ordered combo #7, seafood pajeon, seafood soondubu and definitely all the flavors hit the right spots. The seafood pancake was crispy, the beef from the Lucky combo was tender and juicy, and the soondubu had just enough seasoning and flavor where it wasn't overpowering. The only thing I can comment on is that none of my servers knew anything besides Korean, but that just goes to show how authentic the flavors of this place are. Would definitely come again for a future occasion. Deducted half a star since the price tag was on the higher end, but definitely worth a go despite its mediocre reviews on yelp.

Must try the marinade short ribs is very tender & juicy. Also, the Korean seafood pancake is super duper crispy. The pork combo was normal as well. The service is fantastic, we dine in like an hour before they closed. They didn't rush us n keep refill the side dishes n tea for us.

Our go-to place outside of Fort Lee. It's always packed on the weekends. So we make it on the weekdays for dinner. Quick dinner set up as soon as you sit. The stews and kalbi(beef short rib) are our usual meal at places like this. Forget the rice. Just eat meat and veggies. You'll be stuffed and happy!

Came here about twice, and both times there were speedy service. The servers cook the meat for you, but they do cook pretty fast and to medium rare, so if you want something else (for me I like to eat pretty slow and my galbi cooked REALLY well.. like a little burnt..) you can just speak up and they will adjust to you. Highly recommended the mul naengmyeon to complement the marinated galbi!! Rice is not included with the meal, but steamed eggs and a soy bean paste stew are, as well as various side dishes which vary each time I go + veggies/wraps. When you ask for the check, you get a refreshing cinnamon drink which is a nice finisher to all the flavors that you put into your mouth :D

I've been coming here for years and is the place to go to when it comes to lunch and dinner. My mom and aunts also frequently visit this restaurant as well. They have a variety of dishes like soup, stir-fry dishes and KBBQ. During the summer, I order Bibim Naengmyeon with Kalbi. Other times, I may just want some good old Yukgaejang (Spicy Beef Soup) or Kalbi Tang. Recently, I came here and ordered Yukgaejang while my sister ordered the Yukhwe Bibimbap after leaving my car nearby for an inspection. It seriously hit the spot. Yukhwe Bibimbap consists of seasonrd raw sliced beef, raw egg yolk, assorted veggies, pear, and rice (on the side). They provide red pepper sauce (gochujang) to mix with the dish. It's one of those dishes that people recommend to eat during the winter because it might get spoiled easily. However, when I tried a bite, it was delicious with a mixture of sweet, spicy, and salty. My sister had no regrets. My Yukgaejang was hearty. Thr soup was filled with scallion, shredded beef, cellophane noodle, and egg. Although it says spicy, I did not find it spicy at all. At the end of the meal, they gave a small bowl of a Cinammon Punch drink called Sujeonggwa. Do remember that this is not some fancy restaurant with superior service. You might need to flag down the staff if you want a refill of water. I would probably pass with the different pancakes they offer (seafood and kimchi) aa it's a hit or miss. They also have a lunch special menu that runs from Monday through Friday.

I always pass by this place & I was finally determined to try it - sucks there are so many bad reviews because I tremendously enjoyed my food. It confirms you can't always go by Yelp reviews alone because everyone's perspective/experience can be so different. OR perhaps they improved their service after all the negativity? Honestly, it was almost overly attentive for me - Granted we went on a Tuesday around 6PM and there were less people than perhaps a weekend. But nonetheless, our server was really kind and consistently offered us guidance on how to eat Korean BBQ but eventually I was like ....I've eaten Korean BBQ a thousand times, we're good. I know how to use the damn lettuce wrap. Ok anyway, I don't care about all that - the biggest reason I'm writing this review is HOLY MOTHER OF BEST KIMCHI JJIGAE EVERRRR!!!! I've never had it taste so f*****g good in my life! For this sole reason I would go back. I almost can't wait for winter so I can have an excuse to eat it more often. (I hate winter) I was that impressed! Seasoned to absolute perfection with a little spicy kick, just the right color & immense freshness. Jesus. So good. SOOOO GOOOOOODDDDDDD!!! Ok, I think I made that painstakingly clear. You get the point. We had beef brisket, also very satisfying & I loved the amount of side dishes that were given. Skipped the soju & had an inexpensive house red that went along with everything just fine. But DO YOU get the point?!? Do not leave this restaurant without trying the Kimchi Jjigae if you generally like eating Kimchi Jjigae. You also have to actually like Kimchi. (Yes, captain obvious, I know.) I will return just to make sure it wasn't a fluke because I seriously can't believe it was that good.

This is my second visit to this established kbbq restaurant, and was quite busy on a Friday evening (as expected). This one has been opened for a while, and I find the environment a bit more chill than some of the newer places that tend to blast kpop or have more trendy menu options. We ordered 2 cuts of beef (skirt and short rib, unmarinated) for the table (you must order one meat dish per person if you do kbbq) which came with the usual cold banchan (kimchi, bean sprouts, other veggies) as well as 2 warm banchan (steamed egg and a cucumber tofu soup), and 2 bowls of rice with dipping sauces, lettuce and scallions. The waitstaff will do all the legwork to cook your meat at the tabletop, and I found the meat to be grilled perfectly, not too over or under done. Both cuts were very good. Expect to pay about $40-50 per person for kbbq (outside of taxes and tip), which is pricey for Queens but pretty on par with Manhattan ktown.
