I visited this place on a sarurday night, Im glad that we had our reservation done earlier as the place was constantly being filled up. Its a small place with maybe around 10 tables, so reservation is recommended. We chose our table with grill and these tables were joined side to side due to small place. Another family joined table right next to ours and it looked like its one large family having dinner together. So if you want privacy then choose table without grill but then you won't experience live cooking. We told them that its our first visit, so they helped us in deciding the menu and the waiter, Rizwan kept guiding us to give us the best experience, which was great. We started with Korean fried chicken which sweet and tangy flavour and was perfectly crisp yet tender from inside. Then came bibimbaap, it was served in a clay pot with egg in the centre. It was steaming hot and the egg cooked in that steam. I dished it in my plate and then the waiter came over and guided us how to eat it. He mixed it well and then served it. It was really delicious with veges, pickle, mushrooms, (im not sure if it consisted of any meat, as I dont remember noticing it, but I do know that it is cooked in broth) Then came the grilling part... on the side of the grill, garlic was added in oil and egg was poured. So while we were enjoy bibimbaap, these were cooking already. They then served us egg and started with Angus on the grill, Rizwan knew how to cook it to perfection and served us. It had kind of light sweetness (we ordered all meats that wee marinated) but it was really good. Then wagyu was grilled and it completely melted in mouth, had a little sweetness in all the meats, not spicy at all. Then local beef bulgogi was grilled, this was served with garlic and was delicious We then ordered prawns and calamari and chicken too. They were great and perfectly grilled as well and were grilled with a few vegetables. It was our first experience and so we were just following as to what our chef was doing, so everything was a bit rushed up. If you visit, tell the chef to give gap in between the grill so that you can eat slow and enjoy it more. I find slow eating more enjoyable so you can decide as to your choice. We ended our dinner with their tiramisu but honestly, we all were so full that we had to get it packed after tasting it. All you can condiments and sticky rice were there. Condiments included, pickled radish, kimchi, sauted spinach, soya dip etc It was a great experience, though very expensive but we did utilise card discount and paid 6k/perhead. They also were serving local sparkling water which is great. Everything we ordered was 10/10 experience and as the place is owned by BBQ tonight, you know that quality and service won't be compromised. A must experience place for fine dining! Price per person: Rs 8,000–9,000 Recommended dishes: Beef Bulgogi, Bibimbap, Angus Bulgogi

Great dining experience. It was full even during weekday. Menu is far different than other restaurants. Food is good but not excellent and not to everyone taste. Service and ambiance is great with table top live cooking. If you want to experience something different then try banchan. Price per person: Rs 2,000–3,000 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
