"We went to Lyon looking for a nice Korean bbq place and found this restaurant online. We made reservations after reading the multiple positive reviews online. Nice and clean place, not a very big restaurant, so very nice for a chill family dinner or meet up with friends. The staff was welcoming and helpful with explaining the dishes :) The food was delicious and delivered quickly to us. We had a lovely dinner and time there, and I really recommend it especially in winter the bbq really warms up the place!"

"Overall: 8.5/10 20€ per person for a barbecue Cuisine: 8.5/10 Very good quality ingredients, tasty, well prepared, some authenticity. Location: Lyon, 3rd district Staff and service: 9/10 Welcoming and very nice staff and good service, a bit slow. Ambiance and setup: 8/10 Good place, not so comfortable, cosy, price: 8/10 a bit pricey for the barbecue (20€ per person per 200gr) a soup for 17€ is a bit expensive. However they offer set menus for 15€"

"The menu is small and sadly there were no chicken options for the main dishes, and only one option without beef or pork. I enjoyed my dish but I payed inly 1 euro less for the vegan option compared to the one with beef. Husband said the beef was good. The chicken entrée was good but the pieces rather small! Next time I guess I'll other 2 of this instead of a main plate. The lady in charge is beyond nice."

"I was there in may. We had beef bbq for two with some japchae for main dish. All in all it was really tasty. Also had the bokbunja drink, was a bit too strong for me. i think it could be a bit more but we didn't take starters maybe that's why our bellys had some Space left...or it was so tasty that one can't stop eating. the coconut Balls where a dream for dessert! Also the workers were friendly & polite."
