    We were 1st in today so got great service and it was nice snd quiet. Soon started to fill up. We loved our warm apple copy cake and both our entrées the polenta with poached egg and the baked eggs and tomato. We will definitely come back for dinner as everything is made in house we were told, including the sausage! Fresh squeezed orange juice, although it would’ve been nice if they filled up the glass!

    Fantastic meal, will definitely return. The only reason I gave the food 4/5 was that the steak was a little sinewy, they had changed the sirloin to a flank steak and it just didn’t meet our expectations. But everything else was fantastic, definitely get the cabbage and the Caesar, can’t wait for our next visit to try other dishes and drinks!

    We had reservations and were sat immediately. Lackluster service; not horrible, but not attentive. The menu choices, appys, salads, and pizzas were quite delicious and well made. Not excessively noisy, overall a pleasant noise level. The restaurant has nice lighting and a warm feel. Not inexpensive; however, reasonably priced considering what we got for the money. We would return.

    Went at opening, 5, on a cold day the entire “space“ was warm despite being chilly and wet outside. There was a lawn in the center of the dining area that was blocked off by transparent plastic veil that felt like an art piece. Given a set course made ordering very simple. I added their babysitter mocktail, which was very good. Their ice cube was nice and clear. The meat quality was good as well. I like the age beef and the pork shoulders. The stock was flavorful although much less saltier than most hot pot broths I’ve had which had the benefit of allowing the flavors of the various ingredients to come through. The Bonchon itself was practically a course with high-quality versions of your typical offerings.  my favorite was the eggplant fried. I think the kimchi had too much daikon. The sauces were good and helped enhance flavor when I had enough of the mild broth. The tallow chili oil was also very helpful and had a good spice to it. my significant other who does not eat spice said it was very spicy.

    We were almost an hour early and they were able to seat us. The service was excellent and the food was incredible. My burger was a little under done, but still very good. The corn bread was better than expected.
