The service was impeccable, the meats were well seasoned and had a lot of flavour. The fries had the perfect amount of salt. There was a lot of variety of meats and different Japanese food. The bimbap was delicious. I told them that it was my frie as birthday and they made her a little red velvet cake to celebrate.

Was here to celebrate my birthday and everything was amazing. The food was really good some of my guests had never had done a bbq and they said they really enjoyed grilling the different meats and all the sides we had. Towards the end the staff brought out my cake with candles and sang happy birthday to me. I would definitely recommend this place. Thank you to the staff.

The food was delicious—authentic, fresh, and beautifully presented. The service was outstanding, with staff attentive to every detail and making sure we had a memorable evening. A special thanks to the team for going the extra mile with the decorations, which added a festive touch to the occasion. We truly appreciated the warm hospitality; it made us feel right at home. Thank you again for a wonderful evening! We look forward to returning soon. Best wishes to all!
