Very nice restaurant, great Korean flavors and cool premises. However, given polanco location, consider you will pay around 40% more vs what you pay in Korean restaurants in Juarez area, with the same excelent food quality.

Finally a Korean bbq restaurant in Polanco! What nice discovery! We really enjoyed the food, especially the Kimchi Jigae (Kimchi Soup). Very rich, spicy and hearty. The kimchi pancake was also very delicious- crispy and flavorful. The pork belly and bulgogi were good as well. I’m happy to spend a little more money here than the other Korean bbq restaurants I tried in Juarez. Nice atmosphere and great/ friendly service. We will be back for sure!

I am giving this place 3.5 stars, rounded up to four. There are a ton of Korean places in Little Seoul that are very rustic, but it's all about the food. Here it's all about the atmosphere. The service was great and the decor is lovely. It's really a bonus they use charcoals and the place is perfectly ventilated. But the food just missed the mark. First and foremost, I judge every Korean restaurant by their kimchi. If they cannot make decent kimchi, it's likely the rest of their food is not great. Kimchi should be hot, garlicky and sour. This was not. We shared brisket and bulgogi and the bulgogi flavor was lacking. When you cook it, it should be a nice medium--dark brown from the cooking and the marinade, but this was too pale and flavorless. The pan chan were mediocre at best. I mean, I have been to much cheaper restaurants with more variety, and that were much better tasting. I guess you'll really like this place if you don't really know Korean food and just want to somewhere stylish and cool, with professional service. But if you want real Korean, the flavor--explosion kind, go elsewhere.

I really like this place, we've been coming here since it opened. But recently the service has gotten really bad, they don't change the toppings quickly, they don't bring much, they put three lettuce leaves for a group of three people. It's a shame that such a wonderful place is so quickly starting to turn into an expensive eatery with terrible service at the level of a roadside cafe. I hope the administration will think about it and fix this. and the portion of meat becomes smaller each time, although the amount does not change. and we were just deceived with the portion of meat, ordered two short ribs. they brought three and two pieces of meat, they said that the grams are the same. but we clearly see that they are not the same. in general, after so many visits, I don’t want to come back anymore. this is the case when a place turned from great to mediocre in less than half a year

A must-try spot. Huge variety of dishes and a full experience — they explain everything if you need it and recommend their signature plates. Perfect for celebrations. Great value for the portion sizes.
