Our family favourite Korean charcoal bbq restaurant. Meats are fresh and the owner cooked it to the perfection.

First time visiting this Korean BBQ restaurant tonight. We ordered two types of meat, one beef and one pork, and both were marinated to perfection. They were so flavorful that you could almost eat them straight after grilling. Additionally, the restaurant provided fresh garlic slices to accompany the meal, enhancing the taste with the delightful pungency of garlic. The variety of side dishes was abundant and refillable, which was a great bonus. The owner kindly assisted us with grilling the meat, making it even more enjoyable as we didn't have to worry about burning it. The final bill averaged $38 per person, not exactly cheap, but the portions were generous, and we left feeling completely satisfied. The restaurant's ventilation was also excellent, as we didn't carry any unpleasant barbecue smells on our clothes. I highly recommend this place to everyone. It's definitely worth a visit!

One of the best Korean restaurants on the North Shore. Spicy beef soup is amazing as well as the spicy bqq chicken. Service was super friendly. Will be back.

The food here is clean, light and delicious. The side dish portions are really generous. If you go at a very busy time there might be a bit of waiting, but I think it’s worth the wait. The owners here are friendly too.

At this moment, this is the best Korean BBQ restaurant in Northshore area (2019). Try marinaded beef ribs anyway. You'll love it.

Love this place so much! It’s our go to for a very chill date night on a Sunday or Monday evening. The scotch fillet or marinated pork are our favourite proteins there, along with some rice and usually one of the soup pots while everything is being prepared. One thing is I always leave having eaten ALL of the little side dishes they give you because they are that delicious. If you’re looking for a chill place to have a KBBQ that isn’t loud or packed then this is the place to go. Already looking forward to the next bbq!
