I will start by saying I loved the food so much that I came back a couple of weeks later. Both times I visited, the food was hot and fresh and came to the table quickly. The first time I dined in I didn't even take pictures of the food. Luckily the second time I remembered! Staff is friendly and can make recommendations for you if you can't decide. The uni dynamite was my favorite! It's salty and savory and I loved the crispy bits around the edge of the pan. The slippery shrimp is another good bite. Similar to a honey walnut but not sweet more on the savory side. The wings and fries were both crispy and so well seasoned. Honorable mention to the street corn, lumpia, and kimchi fried rice! I love that the restaurant takes you into a whole other world. You walk inside a bodega and walk behind the red plastic drapes to find a party with a dj inside. Everything about this place is fun. From the bar and drinks to the inside of the restaurant. I'd recommend getting a reservation for a seat inside. Don't forget to get your merch before you leave too! :) Roy Choi is my best friend with the best bites in Vegas!

Food was incredible--traditional Korean flavors with a modern, updated take. The kimchi fried rice was a highlight for us, kimchi tasted fresh and the fried rice was almost crispy. Another favorite was the crispy shrimp, it had a nice light fried exterior and the sauce was super flavorful. We sat in the front area which was nice for people watching but we didn't really have a dedicated server, however, with the sampler we had someone coming pretty frequently if we needed anything. I'd recommend if you want to come for more of a date vibe then sit in the back and make a reservation if you can as we got super lucky with the spots at the communal table.

Celebrated a friend's birthday here and had a great time! Loved the speakeasy look in the front with the Asian market/bodega and the club vibes in the restaurant back. Staff uniforms were so cute and the staff were all very nice and helpful. All of the food was amazing; we ended up choosing the Chef Menu and it was well worth it. Add in some drinks and several courses later, our party was stuffed. Loved the Asian fusion flavors and dishes, I honestly wish I had more room to eat! Had an amazing time and would highly recommend.

Walk thru the facade of an LA snack shop and you get to the main dining room that gives more LA hip hop vibe. Ambient music is a bit loud for me but tolerable. The food is unique for sure. Don't come expecting traditional Korean food. It's a fusion of Korean and Mexican which was definitely a new palate experience for me. For some it may even be an acquired taste as your eyes and mind see "Korean food" but your tongue says "huh?!" We got the sample platter of many meats and that was quite a bit to share between 5 guys. Add few smaller sides and you should be full by night's end! The crowd is young and trendy so come dressed appropriately. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu. If you're in Vegas give this place try and see if your culinary explorer is ready for Roy Choi!

This is such a fun place to get some great food! The ambiance alone gets a 100/10 with a quirky restaurant front, and a completely different vibe in the back! My favorite was the corn, I could eat that everyday if I could. Our server was phenomenal and his personality alone made it fun!

Everything was soooo good. Loved the vibe. The wait was long. But it's Vegas. It's renowned food. It's a great environment. Soooooo, yeah a wait is expected. We had great service. We really dug the adidas uniforms too. So creative.

We decided to walk-in this place and ended up in the bar area. Not a bad place to be if you you're in a hurry and don't have a reservation or time to wait for a proper table. The menu was really good and the food was even more better. A lot of fusion items and a decent selection of beer on tap. It's Vegas...so the ambiance was just about you'd expect from a Vegas place. The Chego Pork Belly bowl hit the spot for me.

My Bf Jen and I got lucky and sat at the bar area. Bar seating is first come first serve at the time around 6 was a 45 minutes waite for seating in the back area. The bartender was very nice and explained the menu. We had a my vegas coupon for a free appetizer with an entree and the menu layout was a little confusing. We were in and out in under 30 minutes and the portion was just right for a light dinner after an event. The agua chili was amazing. It's an explosion of flavor with the elote. We will definitely go back and try all the other gluten free items on the menu. There is outdoor seating which you need a reservation for, we look forward to our next girl time adventure.

Best Friend came highly recommended by friends and family so we decided to make it our last dinner in Vegas. We made reservations a couple weeks in advance which is an absolute must because this place was packed. We had an 8:45 reservation and were seated after 9pm because they were running behind, no biggie. We started with complimentary bread which was warm and perfectly salty. Then we had the Banchan set which was pretty good. My favorites were the cucumbers and kimchi. For mains we went with their kimchi carbonara. Which honestly felt more like a mac n cheese, just wish it had more sauce and different noodles. Tasty but wouldn't order again. Elote was good. The spicy pork was good, and huge portions. The menu has so many options that we ended up ordering way too much for two people. With drinks we had ended up spending almost $200 after tax and tip. This is definitely the type of restaurant to go with a bigger group so that you can explore more of the menu. The ambiance is great, as they played a lot of hip hop music, lots of cool art on the wall. Overall really fun experience, tasty food, cool vibes, glad we got to try it.
