    My girlfriend and I came here on February 22, 2012 because we tried going to another Korean restaurant but that one refused to serve us as they were closing soon. We passed by this place a bunch of times while going to Chinatown, but we didn't want to try it out because there were no reviews of this place. But, let me be the first one to break the ice!

    So, we came here around 9PM and parked on the streets (they have a parking lot though) since it was right across the street from the restaurant. When we walked in, it was quite quiet, with only 2 other tables taken. We were seated promptly near a beautiful and huge Chinese mural/painting. After some debating, we ordered the Sliced Pork Tenderloin and a Seafood Platter for the Korean BBQ. I also ordered a miso soup just for the heck of it.

    The miso soup came after around 10 minutes (no idea why it took so long...usually it's instant). Personally, I thought the soup was too salty, usually miso soup is kind of clear, but this one was very cloudy (my girlfriend thought it was too salty as well). Our food came out a bit after my soup and the server helped us pour everything into the BBQ and cook it. The banchan came out as well and I thought the kimchi was awesome, the best I've had! The other dishes were just okay. While the BBQ was cooking, the server was very observant and came back to check if the meat was cooking okay and if we were eating anything raw (good thing she did, I almost gave my GF a raw shrimp!). I thought the pork was a bit overcooked and didn't have enough flavor. The seafood on the other hand was very delicious, it was juicy and the scallop tasted fresh!

    All in all, the Korean BBQ was fantastic. If you ever doubt a place with no reviews, just give it a shot! You'll never know what a gem you'll encounter. The service was impeccable; the hostess was very friendly and helpful. The food, if cooked right, was great, especially the seafood. If I were to come back, I would probably order the chicken instead of the pork, but the seafood is a MUST! This is a definite must go if you are craving for some Korean BBQ or maybe even some Korean food!
