Good service and tasty meats. I had actually forgotten that I’d come here 2 years ago and came here again recently based on recommendations. Afterwards I had the same opinion as I had when I visited with my sister in the past which was that it was good but a bit expensive for what it is. This time they also slightly burned some of the meat but it wasn’t a huge deal. The first time I went the skill of the person cooking for us was better.

Great spot with delicious Korean BBQ. Super efficient and great service once we were seated. They need to sort out their hostess situation however. There wasn’t anyone at the front and we stood around for 15 minutes with about 10 other people when we had a reservation and arrived right on time. I ended up having to walk back into the restaurant to find a random server to ask them to get someone to help us.

Really good quality of meat and flavours. Very filling, so bring your appetite and friends. Annie and her partner Micheal were amazing servers, Annie had the precision and skill of a ninja and doctor cutting up our meat. We had the cocktails, which were really well crafted. Just be aware of a $25 service charge, which isn’t too bad on a larger bill, but slightly excessive on a small bill.

Got the feast with aged steak , steak tartare and beef short ribs. It also came with a soup, salad and delicious steam egg.

What a feast! We had 6 people and ordered a large beef and small pork on the feast menu, and it was way too much food (although we finished all, uncomfortably). All the beef tasted super tender. The volcano egg was a highlight for me. We also had a seafood pancake – good a bit greasy. The service was incredible too – they grill for you so the meat was right on. Would come back!

One of the top Korean bbq places I have ever eaten at! We got the yogurt soju and the beef feast which were both amazing! Hans was an amazing waiter. He cooked all our meats to perfection and was so cognizant and attentive. He filled our banchan and salad as soon as we finished a plate. He also did a few small things that made us feel very taken care of. We appreciated all the staff’s politeness and attention. We were so full afterwards but would definitely come back to try some of their other cuts of meat or their seafood pancake. 10/10 would come again!

I wanted to try some KBBQ in the Seattle area and I came across this place while walking in Cap Hill. I made a reservation for 6:30 on a Friday, and while getting ready, the restaurant called me and asked if I wanted to move up my time. This didn’t really bother me as I’m sure Fridays are busy, and I just said I would like to keep my original time. I arrived at 6:35 for my reservation and was told because we were late, we had a hard deadline at 8 to finish our food. I was a little confused by this because our seating was delayed by another <10 minutes, and an hour and a half seemed like plenty of time to eat anyways.

I’m literally sitting here eating and in heaven!!! This is top tier Korean BBQ… as we travel the world, we try Korean BBQ wherever we can.. this is in the top 2 without question… it could be number 1, but I don’t want to be bias because I’m sitting here with a mouth full of divine flavors! This is an absolute must try in Seattle!

Meet Korean BBQ was overhyped in my opinion, the food was not up to par. The meat was of good quality, but lacked seasoning and the cooking process felt basic. The side dishes, or banchan, were disappointing and a crucial aspect of the Korean BBQ experience. The high pricing was understandable given the cost of living in Seattle, but not enough to compensate for the lack of quality in the food and side dishes.

The best quality for kbbq that I’ve had so far in WA! It’s a bit pricey but worth much so. Service was great too. Waiting time was short, order was taken shortly, and the server really does know how to cook the perfect steak . Me and my husband really enjoyed the full course and the whole vibe !
