This is a great spot for coal fire bbq, which is different than most kbbq options in New York. The ventilation system at SB was amazing. It barely smelled like smoke when you walk in and even when we were grilling in front of us. It doesn't get too busy, even on weekends, and we were able to get a table without a reservation.

People are harsh! Place is amazing. Much better than most Korean bbq in the area. Meats are all high quality. The pork is all 5 layer black pig, so the fat takes up the charcoal flavor pretty easily and that is actually kinda bitter. The rest is great. Marinade needs more flavor, almost like they watered down the marinade. The marinade flavor is exactly along the lines it should be, just needed to be stronger. Egg souffle is fine. All the side dishes were solid.

3.5 but I am rounding up. Went with a group and we all ordered different dishes - monkfish stew, grilled mackerel and grilled marinated eel. My favorir was the grilled mackerel. I would prefer more Korean starters like the Banchan at BCD Tofu - some braised black beans, potato salad etc. Starter was a salad with carrot ginger dressing and followed with a miso soup. Banchan with the meal was kimchi, seaweed salad and perilla leaves. I would be back for different grilled fish or to try their combos.

My brothers fam brought us here and it was a good time! Their ban chan includes SQUID? Like isn't that a premium item?? Their water was also rice water?? What's going on here?! This is my DREAM. Plus they definitely have their staff cook the food for you, which is ideal since I'm a horrible cook! The sauce and service as well as the food were all good. Also my brother is constantly raving that this is a coal not gasoline burner, so I guess extra points for that as well. All in all an excellent restaurant that clearly shows their effort and attention to detail.

This is a really good place. The servers were attentive and helpful. I also love that they cook and cut the meat for you. I am a little annoyed about the cocktails, which they had on a menu, but no bartender to make them. I love the specials menu when they have a different meat everyday, which is great.

We drove over an hour to eat at this place and we really enjoyed it. We ordered the non marinated galbi & porkbelly! The galbi was so soft and melted in your mouth definitely loved the quality of the meats. The pork belly was thick but had a lot of fat on it next time we will try the thin cut pork belly. We also ordered the mandugook with rice cake and dumplings and it was delicious the flavors were on point! The service was great they always filled our food and drinks. Great customer service. They also cooked our meats for us which was very nice. Can't wait to come back here again and try other meat options! Highly recommend making a resy for big parties.

A great k-bbq alternative to other well-known places like Somunanjip on Pal Park! Great space & thoughtful banchan and their combos while a bit on the expensive side was tasty. I'd say the taste is one of the best in the area! Kids and adults alike just dug in. They have prompt service & a small parking lot in the back for convenience. Definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of k-bbq!

Good Korean bbq option. The meats are usda prime and cooked over Charcoal, which adds a lot of flavor. We ordered both the marinated and non marinated meats and found the non marinated much better. The marinated sauce was so sweet. Additionally ordered the cold buckwheat noodles (which literally had ice in the soup), skip this! And the rice cake. Overall, meats are good, marinate is so sweet, and skip the cold buckwheat noodle.
