First of all, let me preface this by saying I wasnāt even really hungry when I visited the store next door. I took notice to the grand opening sign and asked some employees what they thought of the new Korean place and they all said I couldnāt leave without trying it. Skeptical, as I always am with new places, I figured I would walk in and ask for a to-go menu just to scope the place out and go from there. First thought as I entered was āWOW, this place is really clean!ā As you walk in the counter is up front with a view of the kitchen directly behind it, which is awesome because you can see everything back there is clean too! After speaking with the lady at the front about the menu and my options I choose 3 tacos, chicken, beef, and spicy pork. Each one had a unique flavor and the freshness of each ingredient can be tasted throughout every single bite. This place isnāt using canned jalapeƱos, wilted cabbage, or fatty pieces of flank steak, and their prices do not reflect it. I just paid 10$ for 3 tacos that I would have paid 10$ each for. I couldnāt have had a better experience and the owner Carl was extremely nice and helpful with everything. I have this place saved in my phone and will re visit every single time Iām back in the Clearwater/ Tampa area. If youāre on the fence about trying Korean bbq, stop thinking about it. Do yourself a favor, go try this place!!! I wish I could give them a zillion stars because the flavor was just out of this world. 10/10 flavor 10/10 cleanliness 10/10...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreIncredibly fast take out for when you need something on your lunch break or just quick on the way home. But don't let their speed fool you into thinking the quality isn't there. The food is consistently delicious from here, always hits the spot and is cooked to perfection. Is it authentic, traditional Korean? No. But it tastes delicious regardless. I love getting their beef bowls and adding bibimbap veggies and kimchi. I have some friends that love to get the burritos from here. I personally haven't tried them, but they do look tasty. If you're more of a eat on the go kind of person that might be more your style. Personally, I like sitting down and having the bowl, especially because it usually lasts me through lunch and dinner and lunch the next day Since the portions are generous, they have their signature sauce added to their dishes, which is a little spicy, but mostly just tasty. You can make the food pretty bland if you're not into spice as well, if that's a concern. I have a friend who hates anything even remotely spicy, and she's able to tailor her dishes to her palate. If you order on the website online, they have a ton of customization options, and even in the restaurant, when you order, they're pretty willing to accommodate whatever you ask for. I haven't eaten inside this place and the seating is limited, so I really can only recommend them for takeout or delivery - seemingly their main focus anyway - and for that they are top notch. One of my...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis place is definitely worth trying!! It's fast food Korean bbq at it's best. What a great idea and so glad they are nearby.
Options are simple -- bowl, taco, burger, or burritos...chicken, pork, or beef. I ordered the spicy pork bowl and wow, was it good! Not overly spicy but full of great flavor. It was served in a bowl over sticky rice and cabbage. I also sampled the chicken and beef --- both very good as well w/great flavors. I actually have a hard time choosing between the chicken and pork. The food is fresh and full of flavor! If you don't like spicy food, the pork would not be the option for you....I'd also ensure you ask for no jalapenos on the tacos. I've read that others thought the gochu sauce was either too spicy or too much was placed on their dish -- mine was perfect and the sauce is not spicy, just adds flavor.
They have online order option available through Yelp, which we did and got our food delivered. The food was still hot when it arrived. They ended up forgetting the extra gochu sauce that was ordered for some of the dishes....we called and they immediately addressed it and said they'd send someone to bring the sauce. They not only delivered the sauce but they also included some extra tacos to make it right. What incredible service!!
You definitely won't be disappointed with this place and definitely 5-star worthy -- not only for the food but for the service as well! I will definitely be back for some more of...
