Buga Korean BBQ

1. Buga Korean BBQ

4 star rating
57 reviews

Category: Barbeque

this is also one of my favorite go to for BBQ.  It's a different style of BBQ in comparison w/ Phil's BBQ.  Here, you do ur own grilling.  Just watch out for your orders...they can get a little it pricey.   Good food, good service, and cool place to take out of town friends.

The banchan was okay--some daikon, kimchi (good), veggies and mook--a little skimpy but fine.  The service was about 100 times better than Buga--much friendlier, more helpful and obliging.  I'll have to go...
