This is one of the best dining experiences I have ever enjoyed in over 50 years of extensive world travel. No kidding. You must go and experience the peaceful and relaxing dinner the Korean Way. I recommend that you select the COOK AT YOUR TABLE menu, and then if you are totally clueless, JUST ASK the superb staff to help you understand the culture and the style of eating, which is a much different (and perhaps better) way than most American's have ever experienced.
The decor and the music will (be open minded) put you in a festive mood and the sheer enjoyment of the delicious varied tastes will almost startle your taste buds, savor it....
We also highly recommend the KOREAN VODKA, which is very very much different from any of the worlds finest vodkas we have ever tasted, lighter, fresher, smoother. In fact immediately upon returning to home in Yakima Washington we went to the state liquor store and found it on the shelf, small bottles about the same as a beer bottle, green in color and priced under 8 dollars. Amazing.
We are scheduled to be back in Seattle for another Veterans hospital visit on Monday the 6th and WE WILL visit them again.

Long hungry chat!: 30 minutes for side dishes to come. Another 30 minutes for main dishes and BBQ even though the restaurant was not even 25% full. Food were served in small portions with hefty prices. For example, for a (Mendu?) dumpling soup that has six pieces of dumpling with few thin slices of seaweed swimming pathetically for a whopping price of $10.85. The teriyaki beef and chicken were very stiff. Miso soup was too salty. The Waitreses were quite courteous but the food was very slow to arrive. The sliced radish serving with sashimi were not fresh. Overall experience was very disappointing. Not recommended unless you want a long hungry chat. If you use the entertainment coupon, make sure you read the fine print.
Exellent: I love the food there, great waitress and waitor, love eating the sushi, drop by when you can becuase they alway cooking something good
