    This was the first time any of us had been to a Korean BBQ, and it was honestly such a great experience from start to finish. The whole group absolutely loved it! The interactive element of cooking your own food at the table made the evening feel really fun and relaxed, it gave us all something to do and chat about while waiting, and added a unique twist we hadn’t experienced before. One of the standout features for us was the use of tablets at each table. Being able to order more food and drinks at any point without waiting to catch the server was brilliant. It kept things moving at our own pace and meant we could just enjoy ourselves without interruption. We’ll definitely do it again and would recommend to anyone wanting to try something a bit different.

    I chose this restaurant for a first date, fortunately enough for myself and my date the restaurant was empty which gave me the opportunity to get to know my date better. The staff were perfect and did not interrupt us at all only when we asked them for service. The food was fantastic and I would fully recommend a slow cooked beef cheek. Absolutely delicious. I look forward to my next visit, hopefully with the same date.
