A buddy brought me here about six years ago and I loved it. I had actually been making Kalbi myself with another buddy for a huge annual cookout we used to throw every year for a long time before ever setting foot in an actual Korean restaurant. I suppose if you have actual Korean friends who will cook for you, why go to a restaurant? He had brought the original recipe but I modified it a bit and it seemed to go over well because we were pulling progressively higher attendance numbers every year based on word of mouth. We ran it for about five years until someone new was put in charge of budget oversight for it and decided it was too big a hassle. That was a total shame based on our success but my point is that good Korean BBQ is a treat and if you make it, people will come. These guys have been the main game in town for quite a while but I live in the north end and a bunch of worthy (and sometimes better) competitors have popped up in the Lynnwood/Edmonds area. Since I have options closer to home now, I only come here when I'm meeting up with people on the east side but it still holds a special place in my heart for all the happy meals I've had here with buddies and my kids over the years. The food is standard Korean. It's a LOT of meat that you cook on a grill built into your table. There are a bunch of interesting side dishes like Kimchi, bean paste soup, rice, sprouts, etc. I actually love the bean paste soup but for some reason, this isn't included under the "all you can eat" heading. That makes no sense to me whatsoever. It's got to be cheaper to let a guy like me who loves good soup fill up on that rather than gorging on straight meat. Maybe they should reevaluate this. The price to get the option with Kalbi has gone up significantly since I first ate here so I hadn't come as often. I suppose it's not unreasonably high given inflation over the past decade but it is about a 70% price hike and it's just one more thing on top of the drive. The service is pretty bad but I think a lot of the has to do with the language barrier. That barrier shouldn't prevent them from getting back to my table more often than once every 20 minutes though. If you're in the neighborhood and looking for a good Korean meal, you won't be disappointed unless you base the bulk of your personal reviews on the service. If you do that, you're probably not going to like this.
