The signature 'Hyun-makase' tasting menu guides you through a decadent journey of 12 wagyu cuts, followed by marinated selections and an unlimited AYCE round.

This Korean BBQ restaurant specializes in high-grade Japanese A5 Wagyu, offering an all-you-can-eat tasting menu featuring numerous cuts. While the rich, fatty wagyu is a major draw, some diners find it too intense. Recommended accompaniments include kimchi, scallion salad, and rice to balance the richness.
"The standout is the 'Hyun-makase,' a multi-course all-you-can-eat A5 Wagyu tasting menu. Diners also highly recommend the marinated wagyu, the truffle salt, and the Dwaenjang-jjigae."
Customers generally praise the upscale Korean BBQ experience, particularly highlighting the exceptional quality and marbling of the A5 Wagyu. While some find the richness overwhelming, the overall sentiment is very positive, with many recommending it for special occasions and those who appreciate fatty beef.
Important Note
Some diners find the all-you-can-eat A5 Wagyu to be excessively rich or 'too fatty,' potentially leading to a food coma or feeling unwell after a few rounds. The 'Encore' AYCE aspect may also be perceived as misleading by some.
