randomly found this place the other night, thought just give it a go. In my opinion, korean BBQ is all linked with smoky and noisy dinning environment, everytime, you comr back with smelly clothes. But it is totally different at this place. the deco is much higher standard, clean, quiet, dish arrangement is comfortable, not crowded, nice ambient lightings. There are way more choices of side dishes than most korean bbq places.The flavours are more gentel than the regulars, which I found more acceptable for locals. Meat selection is a bit small, but the meat is fresh, not much sea food, but it was ok for me. A good range of snacks and desserts too. By the way, very clean toilets, which is a great indicator of how clean their kitchen would be like. It shows the owner is very focused the cleaness at very detailed level, huge bonus. The owner is very friendly. He told us the restaurant has been years, which is surprising, it is a bit pity, its location is not in a dinning complex with more public exposure. Honestly, I believe it deserves higher popularity. loved the place, price is reasonable, food is nice, clean and quiet place for gathering eith friends and family. Highly recommended to try it out if you like korean food.

I would give 4 star for the enviroment, food was pretty average. The quality of the meat was below average compared to other Korean BBQ buffet. A bit pricey for its standard.

This place is so far the cleanest korean buffet I have been to. It's big and tables are spaced well. The grill is different than others and, it might just be, it doesn't produce too much smoke when grilling. They have what most korean buffet has...and more. Firstly, the marinated crab is something I have never seen served in other restaurants. They other raw dishes and delicious chapchae. They offer a selection of colc snd hot drinks. I particularly love their Solomon's Seal tea that I even bought one the next day. I would have given it a 5-star but compared to how high end their dishes are, the desserts were mediocre. Compared to all other korean buffets, they are a bit pricey at $49 per adult. Nevertheless, I left full and satisfied so, the price was well worth it.

The best Korean BBQ I have had in town so far!! They have nice interior and really clean atmosphere! Didn't feel oily at all. Love their side dishes even wanna ask if I can buy some lol. Around 7-8 meat choices, more then 20+ side dishes and hot dishes choices, 5-6 dessert and sweets at the back. One of the definitely be back restaurants! Will be better to get a reservation beforehand.

I experienced the best service in Auckland and the food was amazing too. Normally at a BBQ buffet the sides are average but here, not only the meat was good but the sides were just so delicious! The dessert was so so good. Everything was worth more than what I paid for!!!

Oh my what a fabulous, inviting, lovely buffet this is! If you are looking for a good meal with lots of variety this is the place to go! Me and my partner were blown away by absolutely everything this buffet had to offer. Food was delicious, healthy and exciting! Good range of Korean foods! I have nothing bad to say about it :) Oh and the self service coffee was the best I've ever had! The buffet was clean, tidy, warm and the staff were AMAZING! Fast service, cleaned plates away quick and were very friendly. Thank you so much for your hospitality! You are all so wonderful! Compliments to the chef and staff :) We will be back!

It may be the best KBBQ we have had in Auckland so far. Amazing food and ambience with the more modern interior. Everything is tidy and clean. There was a good selection of cooked food and meat, desserts and drinks. The ventilation system also seemed the best out of many KBBQ places we have tried. We went in quite late so not too many people were there but the service was nice and staff were super attentive. We will come again!

One of the best Korean BBQ buffets in Auckland if not in NZ. Should try this restaurant if you are interested in Korean food. $49 per person rate is not something everyone can afford I think.
