Good selection of various meats. Services is very fast. I would stay away from season meat since it will burn and blacken up the grill. This will slow down the grill heat up time and the amount you can eat. Try to stay with stuff you would like and keep those coming none stop. The salad helps wash down the oils and meats. You will thank me for it later. I stay away from soda and liquor since that is wasted space. Chicken take along time to cook on the grill to be aware they it done before you pull it off the grill. Reasonable prices good selection of meats what else can you ask for.

Really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Great AYCE restaurant. Once we sat down the waiter immediately started placing the side dishes.

A really good value here – just wished the service would be more consistent. We were greeted by one server and he said he would be the one but we found out later, the entire staff roams and services every table which resulted in leaving items out of our order as one server didn’t oversee our meal. We were a party of three and while the price for the lunch menu was good, the price for the dinner menu was even better as there are more meat selections and better marinades and choices of proteins. All in all a great deal if you have the appetite. All the beef dishes were great, skip the fried fish.

This place is a joke. The quality of the food is worse than even fast food. The place is overstaffed yet no one seems to want to help, and the place seems to be designed so that you leave as soon as possible after collecting the buffet money. The calamari steak simply did not cook, but maybe it was my fault for expecting something good from a $30 buffet. The meat was cut absurdly thinly, and the appetizers tasted like they had been microwaved. How on Earth does this place have good reviews?

Excellent service from the server. They taught us how to use the grill and they keep you with a nice place of food. The food comes raw, so you have to cook it first before you cut it up and serve it. The meal comes with white rice and appetizers. Overall a fun place to check out with some friends.

When there for my dad’s birthday ln Saturday food was amazing. They even sang happy birthday on a really cool way! So that’s appreciated. Service could be so much better tho. Our server, you could tell that she was either really really busy or not care at all. (Me as a server I know there’s some ways how to handle this so I’m always kind I always tip at least 18% but I always expect a little bit more) food kept us all full for the rest of the day! Amazing ✨

Wow! Such good value for an AYCE KBBQ place in nyc. Dinner was $33.95 and the variety of meats and service made this experience totally worth it. For dinner, you get lots of beef, pork, and chicken options. What stands out is the abundance of beef (galbi, steak, different short ribs) because I don’t see many AYCE restaurants in Manhattan offering galbi. Ordered most of the items on the dinner menu and most were delicious. The spicy pork ribs came pre-cooked and I would highly recommend them if it is a bonier rib. I find that the ribs with thicker meat tend to be dry and overly sweet. Some favorites: gen premium steak, pork cheek, chadol, Hawaiian steak (comes with pineapple!), nook gan sal, galbi, pork belly, and the garlic chicken (cook extra long time).
