Went to Gogi for the first time with my wife and friend. We weren't quite sure, but decided to go for the all-you-can-eat BBQ option, which needs to be ordered for everyone at the table. This works out to an equivalent price of 2 main meat dishes per person, or one main plus 1.5 appetizers.
We got an order of glass noodles each, along with dumplings and bibimbap to start. We also ordered one chicken, one pork, one beef, and one pork belly to barbecue at our table. These were all very tasty, but our favorites were the thinly-sliced beef and pork bulgogi. We liked them so much, we ordered a second portion of both, but that was probably a mistake as it was almost too much to eat. We were able to finish that, which was necessary to avoid extra charges.
In summary, the food was good, but go slowly with the ordering at the end.
Food was reasonably priced. Got the bulgogi which was not a lean as I would have liked but had good flavour. Had the seafood and soft tofu stew was was good! Good amount of lettuce and rice given. Was not the biggest fan of the side dish choice. No potatoes or bean sprouts which are my favorites. Service was slow in every aspect. Was not given any water to start, had to ask and it was room temperature. Had to asked for utensils so could not eat right away. However the staff was very friendly. Might have just been short staffed today? Would still go again. Good thing I was not super hungry when I got there initially!
Absolutely delicious Korean food ! Attentive kind waiters and waitresses who kept the kimchi and side dishes flowing !! The spicy pork hot pot was really good. The beef bulgogi and pork belly were also amazing. It was a great meal that we got to cook at our table, enjoy conversation and not feel rushed. In terms of Korean restaraunts in the north this is my new favorite ! We will be back.
Gogi offers an all you can eat Korean BBQ experience. If you decide to chose the deluxe option it's $28 per person which also includes choices like bulgogi, chicken, pork, short ribs and your side dishes (kimchi, lettuce used for wraps, pickled radish, fish cakes and potatos). There is no limit to what you can get. So there are two options of cooking either do it yourself or if you're feeling lazy have the kitchen do it. I'd recommend the kitchen do it for you because they add extra garnishes on it. The flavor of the meat here is less salted with a charcoal taste - A bit of burnt taste (different than other Korean places) but what I really like about this place was their choice in quality meat, less fatty. A couple other food choices on the deluxe menu was the deep fried seaweed (contained japchae) and boneless chicken sweet and sour (lean meat and a nice crunch). I didn't have any issues with the service here and the waiter checked on us multiple times. Rating here is higher for their choice of lean meats, service and atmosphere.
Good weekday jam. Spicy Pork Hock for 2-3 people sooooooo good. Oxtail soup thumbs up. AYCE is way better if the cook it for you, they garnish your Short Ribs with onions, and the texture is better than cooking on the table grill. They also serve purple rice now. Service is pretty good, better than some other Asian establishments. They also check if sure you've had enough. Their kimchee is really good too.
The customer service was good. The server was very considerate and even asked if we wanted extra side dishes. I got one of the lunch specials which was $13.lthough the tomato patties were too sour for a my liking. Overall good time.š
This was my second time coming to this restaurant. I was worried the second time around, as the first time was a horrible experience. We waited a long time for the server to serve us, as well as the food did not come out after an 1 hour of waiting, even though the restaurant had no customers but us. However, the second visit surprised me. The server was kind and quick. I enjoyed the seafood pancake we ordered as well as the soup which was very light.
Had the spicy tofu soup a few days ago ago gogi. It was really quiet at lunch here. The seafood soup was pretty tasty, I asked for a side of jalapeƱos and it had 0 spice. There wasn't a shortage of seafood in the bowl. The side dishes was up to par with most korean restaurants. I did ask for extra spicy but it came in as very little spice.
Had an excellent time at Gogi Korean BBQ. The service is much better now than when the restaurant was Wayo. We ordered the combo for 2-3 people which came with soup, salad, side dishes, dumplings, and 3 different BBQ meats. Everything was delicious and we had extra to take home.
Great value on ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT that they just started. Meats are fresh and tasty as well as the spicy rice cake and deep fried seaweed roles. Love it!
