Mapo Galbi Korean Bbq - GOSFORD

Lovely food and dinner. After hearing about this place a few times we thought we would check it out and don't regret it. Not being familiar with Korean BBQ, it's great to have somewhere local with such variety and quality in a tasty different dinner. All of the side dishes that came with our meat combo were also delicious. Give it a go, was very enjoyable.

Food was good, but staff were constantly hovering at our table and taking control of our cooking and cutting our meat. The whole experience of Korean BBQ is the fun of cooking your own meal, I was very uncomfortable with the staff coming over all the time interrupting our conversation. They were very nice but it was very unnecessary

I have had the unfortunate circumstance of visiting this establishment tonight, my girlfriend leaves for Canada tomorrow for 3 months and I was hoping this venue would be a great dinner before she left. To start off; The Food, food was below par. I felt like the only thing that had any sort of substance of flavour was the kimchi (more than likely store bought) The service, sure the waiters were nice but they would not stop staring at us. It felt like myself and my partner were being singled out in the whole resteraunt, this led to us feeling very uncomfortable and not wanting to dine there. (This was after we had ordered and started our meal). Every 20-30 second the server would come to our table to do something, whether it be taking control of our BBQ or changing grills, they were always there. My partner felt so uncomfortable that she could not eat at all. All of these points tie in with the atmosphere of the establishment, we felt like we were being rushed to leave, we were allowed in there and that we were incompetent. Overall this venue would get a 1/10, I really wish that I did not waste $104 on something we could not enjoy. If you're reading this, I hope you don't fall victim to visiting here!
