Highly anticipated but disappointed 1/27/2010

All restaurant guides point to this place and they couldn't be more wrong. I was prepared to be rushed out since they like to turn over the tables very quickly, but for a Tuesday night it wasn't crowded and they didn't push us through the meal. Unfortunately the meal was very disappointing. The Pa Jun appetizer (scallion pancake) was bland, the shrimp tempura was too crusty, and the BBQ kalbi dinner portion was small and ordinary. Not to mention we had to ask for more rice with our meal. Lastly, the side dishes were minimal at best and no kimchi at all. I've been to other Korean places, most notably Kang Suh in Yonkers, and they were so much better. The hosts were polite but that was about it. I do not plan on revisiting this location. Pros: nice atmosphere Cons: slow service, small portions more

Despite bad reviews, I actually enjoyed it! 1/12/2008

I loved this restaurant. My friends and I (group of 7) decided to have a late dinner around 11 P.M., but service was great. Others have put bad reviews for service, but that must be during busy times. We came at an odd hour so it wasn't crowded. You would expect food to be bad during slow hours but it was actually great. I would love to taste their food during busy hours. Definitely try the Kal Bi and special beef (? that's what I heard them call it). It was DELICIOUS! We ordered about 7 orders of the beef barbeque. I love the fact they are 24/7. It's a great place to dine after a night out with friends. more

Good food but quite expensive! 9/4/2007

The food was great but the portions definitely small. The wait staff was nice and efficient. The atmosphere was very crowded, hardly romantic. Pros: Good Food Cons: Expensive more

WHO DOES THAT? 8/25/2007

The food is okay, but overpriced and if you're not korean they're not as nice to you. I used to not mind that much, but after the terrible service I received the last time i went, i will NEVER go back. I went there in a birthday group of ten people. The waitress was rude, but we thought whatever, it's a busy night, who cares? After the meal, some of the group was already downstairs and outside, while the rest of us settled the bill. We put the money on the table and were about to leave when the waitress STOPPED US. She said we had to wait there - that we could not leave - until she had counted out the money we left. I was absolutely STUNNED, and then extremely angry at her rudeness in suggesting that we would try to dine and dash. (it's not like we were a group of teenagers who wouldn't have enough money. we're freakin twenty something asian bankers.) She counted the money painstakingly slow in front of everybody in the restaurant and then bid us a facetiously nice goodbye when she realized we had left her an $80 tip. Afterwards, my friend tried to complain to the manager on duty, but he pretended to not speak english! \r \r My advice - if you're looking for overpriced korean food, just go to the restaurant across the street. their bulgogi is better anyways. Pros: Nice hostess Cons: Horrible waitresses more
