    My family celebrated my mom’s birthday at Kim’s Korean BBQ last night! The service was so, so good, and Mama Kim went out of her way to make sure we really enjoyed the experience (which we did!). The food was delicious, full of flavor, but without feeling heavy. We never felt rushed through the entire dinner, and made a memory with our mom we won’t forget!

    Food is good, I think it’s overpriced IMO though. $100+ for a family of 4 and the portions weren’t impressive. Love the family atmosphere, but the price tag needs serious work before I consider going back.

    First off, I'll give respect, where respect is due. This food was amazing, and the atmosphere wasn't bad at all. However!!!! The service was the worst that I've ever experienced in my life. I don't know what we did, to deserve such horrible treatment. We was greeted at the door, by one of the owners, which was who also sat us down. After a few minutes he took or order, brought it out, and all of a sudden, was AWOL. it was us and 2 other tables in there. The other owner spent all her time at the other tables, conversing, and bringing them drinks/ refilling constantly. Meanwhile we was never visited at all. My wife had to get up every time to ask for refills, silverware, sauce, and etc. normally, I don't care if someone wants to converse with me or not. But to sit there and give attention to every table except for us, was a bit embarrassing. Like I said. The food was great, but the service was way under poor. Would give it 0 stars, if I could.
