We eat Dwenjang Jjigae and yangnyeom moksal. Yummyyy The Banchan taste are delicious, but some taste bland. They give us free banchan and corn tea. So many promo here, if you tag the Instagram and post a story about Bamsae, you will get free dish. And if you review through Google they will give free lemon tea. The place not really noisy, nice place to hang out with your friend and family. I will try their other menu next time, like Jjamppong, Japcae, etc.

A great K-dining experience. The banchans are all great. They have great selections of seasoning. Tried the half bossam half jokbal, and half golden fried chicken half soy garlic chicken, also the grill set. Recommending the bossam and fried chicken. The grill set is also legit. The bingsoo is a tad too sweet. As for the jjajjangmyeon, I think there are better ones. The kimchi jjigae, though, is great! Overall, a great experience, and will definitely revisit.

I always love KBBQ dining and this place offers more than just great food; it also offers vibrant atmosphere with energetic K-pop tunes in the air. Banchan and corn tea are served for free — they’re nothing fancy, but they just remind you of Korea. The staffs were all super friendly and they made us feel welcomed. They also gave good descriptions of the dishes, and even prevented us from over-ordering by informing that the jjigae came with a bowl of white rice (we initially wanted to order jumeokbap). Definitely will return coz it’s worth every single penny.

We ordered a few of their dishes. The place is quite nice and the ambience is lively as well. The food is alright, but the chicken is very very good! Especially the spicy one! Must try.

Food was just right for my family’s taste. Although The jiggae was a bit to sour. Everything else was at its best Service was on point, steadfast and aware. Music was somewhat too loud.
