Excellent service!
Nice selection of meats.
One of few places that offer dry aged ribeye.
We got the beef tartare sushi, side order of beef tartare, dry aged ribeye, aged tenderloin, aged ribeye.
Pretty decent wine list. They offer corkage.
Difficult to get reservations. Be prepared to wait up to an hour without reservations.
Efficient smoke evacuation below the table. You don't smell like bbq when you leave.
It is expensive and it is good. The meat is good quality for sure. Parking here is not too easy though.
Service is ok, not really excellent or attentive. And the floor is stone that makes the echoes everywhere and noisy.
The price range is too high for us and it is for rich people to enjoy, not for us. But again, you pay what you get and the meat qualify is good here.

Meat quality was great and Not too much over seasoned. Restaurant is located in a fancy shopping center with many interesting places to explore while waiting for the table. The waiting could be long, early reservation recommend.

The staff didn't tell us anything and just sort of hoped we figured it out. Over priced for the quantity of food and quality of service. They just put a bunch of things in front of us and walked away for fifteen minutes without a word. First Korean BBQ experience, we might have known better if it wasn't, but overall rather disappointing.

The meat was delicious! The food was good, the service was good, the steak was so soft, tender, flavorful, and juicy...loved it!

Super good! Pricing is a bit high and portions tend to be on the smaller side. You go here for class and ambience. Great service, nice classy place to bring guests or have a business meal. They hardly ever pick up the phone, thus hard to make reservations which they do accept. Seems that the hostess is also a waitress so the reception desk is usually unmanned, lack of staff, but they sure work super hard. Expect to spend $30-100/person.

Put your name on yelp reservation before you go! I had to wait about an hour on Saturday evening but it was totally worth it!
I wasn’t too impressed by dry aged prime rib but cotedeongsim was really good and so did mul neng myeon.

Best tofu stew! Absolutely delicious. I didn't eat and of the k bbq - I know, what a faux pas - however everything was so tasty.
Service was super nice to, but the wait time is pretty long. It's worth it though!

This was my first time here. I usually go to Gen and I thought of trying a different place. It’s definitely upscale and pricey. Meat quality was great. But the service was really bad. I wish I could give a 0 star. Servers had no training in customer service. They burnt the meat while grilling and he came back to the table and just stArting chopping off burnt side. He never even apologized. I asked twice to talk to the manager. They never called the manager. I won’t be back!

This BBQ joint is not only upscale and classy, but also modern, but most of all, is mindblowing. It oozes modern Korean BBQ authenticity while delivering on a cool and refreshing atmosphere. Previously you had to choose between authenticity vs being in a smokey floor-sitting environment. Not anymore.
The ribs were phenomenal with amazing marbling. It literally melts in your mouth. The beef soup is out of this world. Dogani also is prepared with excellence, not too soft but adequately chewy. And finally the raw beef is divine. All of this with a very reasonable price.
If you are in DTLA, this is it. Make a reservation.
