    All you can eat Korean bbq for $25. Includes various appetizers, ssam platter, and basic meats (bulgolgi, pork belly, brisket, chicken). Kalbi is extra. The marinated pork and bulgolgi are the best.

    SPAM is one of the grill options here. "Gogi" means "meat" in Korean, which is the appropriate moniker for this $27 all-you-can-eat carnivorous meal. Read more

    $26.5 for AYCE. Meat quality is pretty good compared to other places in NorCal. Also they have Schöfferhofer Grapefruit pitcher!

    This place gets packed easily after 6:30pm. Come early and head straight to the sign in sheet. don't wait for a waitress/waiters attention; it wont happen.

    Dig this place. They've got awful ventilation but have real charcoal kbbq grills. Their food isn't BEST EVER but it's certainly above average (kbbq, stews, bibimbap, banchan). My KoNo go-to meal.
