I'm originally from North Carolina so I was very excited when I found UJ Smokehouse while searching for places to checkout in Geoje over the holiday weekend. It was about a 3 hour drive from our home and UJ Smokehouse was our first stop. My wife and I hadn't eaten all day so we were very excited as we entered the restaurant but as soon as we came in, the owner told us that we have to get out at 3:00. I worked in restaurants all through college so I understand how frustrating it is when people come in before closing but we came at 2:00 which feels like plenty of time and the way he phrased it felt rude.
