My only small critique is that the specific section we were seated in could have used a bit more ventilation. It got pretty smoky/steamy once all the grills in our area were going at once. Other than that, it was a fantastic meal! We will definitely be back for more KBBQ and hot pot.
Arriving about 12:15pm, we were seated with no wait. They could fit around 40 in booths for 4 to 6. There’s a whole other area further in for maybe 50 more, with some tables for large groups. The room was lively with conversation and music.
We were immediately greeted by our attentive friendly fun server, Mahlah, who showed us: menu choices and pricing, the wireless ordering-tablet, techniques for grilling, and the buffet appetizers and desserts.
At the buffet we filled a dish with nicely-fiery flavorful kimchee and a similar spicy mix with tofu. We got lettuce, carrot shreds, and fresh tomato chunks. Warm sesame-covered mochi-rice balls, lightly sweet and fresh with a chewy inside. Fresh hot finger-thin 2-inch spring-rolls, crispy and flakey with a little bit of veggies inside. Small hot flakey crispy rangoon triangles filled with cream cheese with just a little crab-flavor. A dozen or more flavorful sauces, from a KPOT signature red sweet bbq sauce, to a pretty spicy red sauce, to a bowl of soy-sauce with added chives and onions and garlic and jalapeños and such.
The lunch-menu Korean BBQ offered a wide selection of meats and seafood and veg. Mahlah was always nearby, watchful for any requests, and brought our first course in mere minutes.
The “spicy” bulgogi beef was cut in medium-thick slices, maybe 1/8-in thick, and it cooked quickly while staying very juicy and very tender. The prime brisket was cut in thicker slabs, maybe 1/4-in, and it was marbled enough for good juicy flavor and tender texture even on this hot grill. We used the scissors to size it down for eating. The beef-belly was very thinly sliced, paper-thin, and it cooked up in a flash, getting a a slight crust like a well-done Italian porchetta. That took some practice to cook without almost evaporating it! The trick? The table-grill is hottest in the middle, so cook delicate foods around the edge of the grill. We had tender chunks and strips of juicy marinated garlic-chicken breast, and tender juicy good-sized garlic-shrimp, which were both very easy to grill. We tried some thick slices and long tangles of squid, and they were tasty but we didn’t really figure out how to keep them tender, so we cut them up into smaller pieces with the scissors and marinated them in soy sauce which really enhanced the slight char.
We grilled sliced white onion, thin zucchini circles, chunks of fresh green peppers, thin tasty white oyster mushroom discs, and thicker chunks of peppers and portobello mushrooms.
We ordered twice more. Thicker cuts of pork-belly, like not-salty bacon. Bright-red “spicy” (not very spicy) sweet juicy white-fish fillets. Sweet tender “Hawaiian” bulgogi, which we spiced up with sauce from the buffet. More of those tasty garlic-shrimp. Probably a few more items that I’m not remembering right now.
For dessert we got some little chocolate ice cream and fruit-flavor sherbet cups from the freezer by the buffet, and chose tiny wooden spoons just for fun, instead of the available silverware. We got fresh fruit and a slice of light cake with a light creamy layer on top. Then Mahlah overheard one of us say “birthday”! She laughingly scolded us for not telling her sooner, quickly came back with a large wonderful slice of delicious super-light cheesecake with a candle, and happily sang Happy Birthday with us! It felt like another friend had joined us! Luckily, one who remembered the cake 🙂
We ate for nearly two hours, until we couldnt eat any more! It was so much fun, and we chattered happily the whole time as we were adding to the grill or serving or sneaking tastes along the way :-). We thoroughly enjoyed our tasty flavorful generous meal r. KPOT is a great fun place for fresh grill-it-yourself foods. There’s five more KPOTs within 45min and several more within an hour. I had no idea! But this is the only location with Mahlah, our lovely friendly skillful server.
