Overall
Food

Korean BBQ that YOU cook over real wood on a seasoned metal grate is wonderful, among many other things.
I am super picky when it comes to food and this place has been in my top 10 best restaurants and is my #01 BBQ spot for over 32 years.

Pros
Your stomach will be super full after eating.
Lots of FREE side dishes with free refills.
FREE white rice with free refills.
FREE barley tea hot or cold with free refills.
FREE self-serve ice cream with free refills.
They HAVE a liquor license.
Parking is FREE in their own lot.
They don't rush you.
You can easily get a foam box for leftovers.
They like children.
Napkins holder and some sauces are on the table.
Mostly Koreans eat there.

Cons
The dishes you grill are REALLY expensive.
The decor is very old but clean.
Service is slow, so be prepared to get up and ask for more tea or soft drinks if you want them right away.
It's so addicting you'll be going back as soon as you can afford it.

My #01 Recommendations.
For loves of spicy hot food, the Mai Un Bulgogi (Thin sliced SPICY marinated beef) is the "NOT for Americans kind".
For those who hate hot food, you can get plain Bulgogi (no spice or marinade).
Since the above is an order for two, you can get half plain and half spicy if you ask.
You can grill the side dishes if you want them hot.
I like to grill the garlic.
Put the grilled garlic, spicy ground bean sauce. and hot grilled meat onto a lettuce leaf, roll up and eat.
It's 100 out of 10, the best ever.

I did say it's addicting.
