We went for my cousins birthday, the food was yummy and the staff are nice service is not wow, So don't expect so much (example they should clear up the tables when they see empty plates and also they should clear the table before presenting the birthday desert), keep in mind that the restaurant wasn't packed only 3 tables were occupied including ours. This makes me wonder how it would be if it was a full-house. *The complementary birthday desert was really nice. What I hated deeply was one of the staff took a picture without our consent and she wanted to post it on the wall. I mentioned to her and she said that my mother agree, she was gaslighting and has no consideration for us at all. She didn't care that we didn't want our picture posted, she said everyone gets their picture posted, to be honest this is very unprofessional and we all felt uncomfortable. I Also asked her to delete it from her phone, I don't trust she did. To be honest, I never encountered anything like this and we asked her to give us the Polaroid picture and she said she will only give it if we left a Google review. This felt forced. On the other hand she did write a cute message saying happy Birthday and with the date for my cousin. So my experience was alright overall. Would I go back, Yes, I...

Read moreThe Taste of Korea Restaurant
Located in the Crystal Hotel, this restaurant offers convenient parking in the hotel's underground garage. You can access the restaurant on the M floor via the elevator from the parking area. Although it's called a buffet, you can't choose specific dishes. Instead, you select a course (pork, beef, or seafood), and the staff will prepare a set meal for you at your table. You don't need to get up to serve yourself from a buffet line.
The portion size seems to be based on the number of people at the table, and you can request more if needed. However, the amount of food served is quite generous, and it's hard to finish everything. Unfortunately, if you don't finish your meal, you'll be charged extra for the leftover food. I think this policy should be improved since customers don't serve themselves, which can lead to inappropriate portions for some guests.
Today, I ordered the pork set, priced at 99AED per person, which is standard living cost for Abu Dhabi. The flavors, including the dipping sauce and side dishes, were delicious and authentic, just like eating in Korea. The seaweed soup was rich and fragrant, and they even provided ice cream...
