    Just before my lovely wife Pat went in for her work, we stopped at this interesting Korean restaurant. I let Pat out of our car at their front door while I parked the car. Upon entering this establishment I spotted Pat immediately and made my way to her table. Pat already had 2 menus in front of her. Pat pointed out the gadget given that we use to receive the attendants attention and service. That was incredibly handy and smart. Once we both went through their large menu selection, Pat hit the silent signal. During this time our waiter had already brought over complementary glasses of water. Our waiter, young Junyeong, was very courteous and efficient. Shortly after ordering we were served our food freshly prepared. We both enjoyed our selections (see pictures) and there was enough left over for Pat's dinner (we'd stopped in here for our late lunch). Seating was extremely comfortable and it was a delight seeing the many pillows available for further comfort. Highly recommend this place for great food at reasonable pricing, at least for what one receives. PS. Did not learn till later that there are some tables with built-in BBQ setups. Best to reserve seating during busy times, especially for those few tables.

    This is without any doubt our favourite place to eat in Moncton. The food is delicious, the prices are very good and the team is amazing. Everytime my partner and I are in, they remember us and it really makes the whole experience priceless. Eat-in, Take-out & Deliveries were all tasting the same & we were never disappointed with anything we ate there!

    Conflicted with this review. The food is as good as it looks. The issue was being told the table BBQ was all you can eat, and with three of us, $81 for meat and rice wasn't unreasonable until I was told after the first plate that it wasn't all you can eat. $125 bill (tempura shrimp and an extra soup) was a bit much for what was shown in the picture. New pricing model needed.

    We really enjoyed this restaurant. I highly recommend it. Food is tasty. The place is nice. The fresh Kimchi was our favorite . The only thing I would like more of is a variety in hot teas 😉

    I wish I could give this place 6 stars! We just went for the first time and got takeout, it was one of the best meals in my life! We got the shrimp yaki soba (with sweet sauce), the kimganae ramen with chicken, a serving of dumplings and a serving of spring rolls! Everything was so delicious and the spices weren't overbearing it was so perfect. The spring rolls are so delicate and flakey. My father says "The best asian cuisine I've ever had and I'm almost 53!" The ramen noodles were so tender, and I even liked the shrimp and I usually don't like shrimp! Overall AMAZING meal and amazing service too! The employees are super nice and our order was ready in less than 10 minutes!!

    Love their food! We ordered the 6 person combo for 4 people (we were very hungry, found their 2 person combo for 2 people wasn't enought last time), it was more than enough. The portions are on the smaller side so if you're hungry, I would suggest the next size up. Their appetizers are delicious. Great service! Suggest reserving tables for bbq ahead of time if that's what you want to order, they only have a handful of bbq tables.

    Absolutely phenomenal. We are here in area on vacation and we're trying to check out some of the different restaurants. The kids wanted barbecue and my wife suggested we have Korean barbecue. We were unsure what there was available so we had a good look and this restaurant came up. The customer feedback was overwhelmingly positive. We reviewed the negative feedback and found it to be a little ridiculous. We have visited many restaurants that cover a wide variety of price ranges and this is probably one of the best Korean restaurants that we've been to, especially one that has Korean bbq. We found the pricing to be actually quite reasonable for the quality of food. Our waiter was very friendly and courteous. He made some very pleasant suggestions and suggested what we might like to try for our barbecue instead of ordering one specific item. We actually got a combo plate which allowed us to have many different things. He also worked with my wife to create some sort of custom concoction of combining two different menu items together and they were able to do it. We had a small amount of food left over and we brought it home because I ate my fill and everybody else ate their feel as well and it was just too delicious to leave. The food was a little sweeter than our local Korean restaurant but then again, they have a different menu selection and different flavor profile. I happen to prefer this one over the local option. I feel kind of bad only having one picture and that's because I was too busy eating. We took the picture attached shortly after our plate of barbecue arrived and our miso soup. Unfortunately we didn't bother taking pictures when the other food arrived because we just started digging in and eating. It was absolutely phenomenal and I would definitely recommend this establishment for anyone looking for amazing Korean barbecue in the area. We didn't try their other dishes but if you're looking for an experience instead of just eating, try the barbecue.

    First time in and not the last. Everything from the appetizer to the main course was delicious. A huge variety on the menu... only thing wrong with that, it makes it hard to decide what to chose. 😆. Love the idea of the "call button" on the table. If it's too busy and you need something, great way to get the server's attention. Can't wait to go back to try something else on the menu.

    Excellent Korean food superbly presented (visited June 2019) During a stopover in Moncton we came across this restaurant by chance. The food was excellent and presented in a beautiful asian style. (I have traveled in asia). They had just opened only 5 days prior and already had a huge clientele arriving for supper. The service was incredible despite the delays in food preparations due to the volume, An example of food presentation is provided in the attached photo. Highly recommend for good and tasty food choices. We visited in mid-June.

    The food was amazing! The service was a little pushy but the food came out fast and the flavors were amazing. My only complaint was limitations to the BBQ. I really wanted to have the BBQ but it seems to be for 4-6 people only and there is only 2-3 tables with this feature. I look forward to going back with a few friends to enjoy the BBQ :-)

    Nice quiet place. The choice of dishes is wide, the atmosphere is pleasant. As for me, it was cold in the hall; both my husband and I had to sit in jackets. I think we’ll come again, but I hope the room will be warmer 😅

    Stopped in here on a Friday night at 8.05pm. Asked if the kitchen was open and was told that it would be closed in 10 mins. Ordered bulgogi spicy and chicken japchae. One of my hugest pet peeves ... ordered 6$ green tea, got a half filled pot and no follow up service. Water was never refilled ... and didn't even want to ask for extra Gojochang. They have a great buzzer system to alert services to when you need a follow up ... however after asking if they offered Banchan, Kimchi or any typical openers I would expect in Korean restaurant ... it was a firm no. I asked for Soju ... flat no. They were... more interested in closing at 9pm than anything else. The service was very "unKorean" and catered for white people who had never been to Korea or knew anything about Korean food. By the time it was 8.30, the kitchen was closed and everyone was playing on their offering side eyes to get us out the place as quickly as possible. Maybe the team had a karaoke bar date. Finally the food. It wasn't bad but I was so put off by the terrible customer service that I couldn't move past an average and over salty Bulgogi or chicken japchae that was swimming in sauce ... the staff assumes that others haven't seen what baseline good or excellent Korean food should look like. This is a tough review because this place can easily do better. I'll visit again to see if my first time was an anomaly.

    Every 6 months or so I decide to come down to this place because I love the idea of cooking my own food on the little grill tables. I say every 6 months because everytime I go I forget how cheap they are there. The first thing that they told me while being seated is that I could only tip with cash and not with a card, to which I found to be a weird way to ask someone how they are doing. You pay the 35-40$ a person for the bbq, they bring you a plate of meat, a few pieces of lettuce (used as one bite tacos), and literally ONE table spoon of sauce. Which I found to be surprising considering the last time I came it with 3 different sauces and a plate of veggies not included as of late. So throughout the meal I rang the buzzer for 2 more plates of lettuce (which they charge extra for), the 2 sauces I was missing, and the 3 sauces over and over again. I could go into more detail but this is getting quite long. Cheap buggers stepping over dimes to pick up pennies
