great kbbq experience and smart table setups. the tube is really helpful to controlling heat and eliminating smoke. the miso soup was a big portion and tasty. beef dumplings were tasty. all the sides they brought in the beginning were good- we asked for extra kimchi. didn't enjoy the small kimchi pancakes they gave as a side. my brother and i both ordered lemonade and it was refreshing- keep your drinks away from the heat so they stay cold. the two of us ordered three different beef options for bbq which was a perfect amount considered the sides and appetizers too. we ordered costillitas but they brought costillas- we kept them bc we assumed they were out of costillitas, and I'm glad we did because the costillas were my favorite of each of the cuts we bbq'd.

We came here for takeaway after another place was closing and wasn’t taking orders after 9pm. We are travelling and had one too many tacos and got gastro from carls jr. We had to get some korean food. Sundubujjigae comes with a bowl of rice and some side dishes even if you order takeaway which was really nice. It did taste a bit like ramyun but it did the trick. It didn’t have any other protein besides the tofu but that with the vege helped calm our stomach

Update June 5, 2020: Still amazing! Still delicious! The LA Kalbi here is still my favorite. This time we ate outside in the patio area with no problems. The waiters were very attentive and they even replaced the charcoals when the flame started to die out. Original: The buffet was quite enjoyable. There were mainly 3 options available: pork belly, steak tips, and LA kalbi. I definitely preferred the kalbi as the flavors were definitely on point. The prices aren’t cheap, especially for Mexico, but you can easily eat your money’s worth if you come with an appetite. The ambiance is alright with pretty of indoor and outdoor seating. They’ve definitely got the ventilation system down, sucking up that smoke and reducing the smell on your clothes. I wish they had bulgogi, but for now this will remain one of my favorite Korean joints in Mexico City.

This Korean BBQ restaurant isn’t my favorite, but it’s still a good option as it offers high-quality meats. I highly recommend it for Korean BBQ lovers, delivers authentic flavors. The service is friendly and fast when bringing your order, but if you need something during your meal, it can be quite slow. Still, it is a great spot to enjoy with friends or family.

I loved this place. I'm a big fan of Korean BBQ, but this place goes over the top by cooking the meats over hot coals. We brought a big party and they were able to accommodate us. You must try the spicy pork belly.

Wow. There is a reason the wait time is close to 45 min. The meat here by itself is marinated so well and is absolutely incredible. Appetizer: We started with soju (sweet liquor to cool us down and wet our appetite) and a Sapporo beer for everyone (to balance out the heavy meats). We should have ordered the dumplings. Dinner: costillia de res en marinada en salsa de soya, punta de res banada en salsa de ajonjoli, 6 piezas de camaron (we 4 were so full no one even tried them ), kalbijjim (sopa - super rich and sweet plus extreme spice, thick broth -everyone likes it but me), budaejigae (sopa - delicious light ramen like broth with plenty of meat to share - I liked this soup more than everyone). Dessert: helado de lichee - super refreshing to share with others after a heavy dinner like this This was easily enough food for 6 people. Many Koreans dine here. We spent 3,300 MEX - not a peso waisted
