If you want some fantastic Korean-BBQ look no further! The food is delicious, the chef gave perfect pointers (and offered other recommendations around Seoul), the sides were incredible and the portions were filling! They also speak English so if you're rusty on your Korean, then no problem. There's also a handy guide on the various methods and combos to try which was super handy. I'd certainly come back! Amazing restaurant in Itaewon! Always happy to come back! Their pork belly just melts in your mouth! Highly recommend The grilled pork belly comes in generous portions, and the hand-cut noodles are delicious! It's perfect as a late-night snack for two.

You have to take 2 times a portion of the same meat, which is a little bit disappointing, but other than that the staff is really kind, food is great and ambiance is perfect if you feel talking!

I came here on my first night in Seoul and had a fantastic meal, so naturally, I measured every meal after against it. They have the most tender meat, delicious sides, and an ice bucket on the table for keeeping your beer cold! By the end of my trip, nothing had come close, so I came back on my last night too. Come, you won’t regret it! :~}
