" Decent experience but a few hiccups. While the ambiance was beautiful and the staff courteous, the service was a bit slow during our visit. Our server seemed overwhelmed despite it not being busy, which delayed our meal's timing. The food itself was pretty good—especially the marinated galbi—but I was hoping for a more authentic taste overall. I'd give it another shot, though, as it has potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant really nails the upscale BBQ vibe! I took my partner for a special night out, and we were so pleased. The atmosphere is stylish yet relaxed, which is perfect for conversation. The waitstaff was attentive, and they had incredible recommendations—they steered us towards the egg soufflé, which was unlike anything we’ve had before! The only downside was the portion size for some dishes which felt a bit small for the price, but overall, we loved it! " (*Curated Review*)

" A unique experience with incredible food! My friends and I ordered several dishes to share, including the ribeye and the egg soufflé. The soufflé was a decadent surprise! I also appreciated how they grilled everything in front of us, making it a truly interactive dinner. A bit pricey but worth every bite. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really enjoyed my meal! The marinated galbi was perfectly tender and not overly sweet, which is often the case elsewhere. The service staff was accommodating, which made our visit all the more enjoyable. They cooked everything just the way we liked it! For anyone who loves BBQ and wants it executed excellently, this is the place to go. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an unforgettable evening at ABSteak! The quality of the meat was exceptional, especially the Wagyu. Each cut was cooked perfectly at our table, which added to the fun. The atmosphere was upscale yet welcoming, perfect for a special dinner. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing our overall experience. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for top-notch Korean BBQ! " (*Curated Review*)

" Went for dinner and was wowed by both the food and the vibe! The modern decor blended seamlessly with the traditional Korean BBQ experience. The beef cuts we tried were top quality, and I can’t get over how tender they were. Also loved the kimchi fried rice! I appreciate that the staff was always attentive but not overbearing—it felt just right. Definitely planning to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel like VIPs. We ordered several appetizers, and everything was fresh, vibrant, and bursting with flavor. Our main course was the dry-aged black label wagyu, and it was simply the best steak I've ever had. I must also mention the banana dessert—it was a delightful surprise! Each course was timed perfectly, and we never felt rushed. Highly, highly recommend for anyone searching for an elevated Korean BBQ experience! " (*Curated Review*)
