Sikdorak Korean Restaurant

I've come here like twice at like 12-1 in the morning. Both times we were seated right away. I like that we didn't have to wait too long, however, I could imagine if we came during a busy time, it might take a while to be seated because there's only a few tables. The service ain't too bad, they're great except the fact when the owner likes to just watch and smile at you when you're eating. But the other servers were great! The meat portions are huge, so if you're not that hungry, or know you can't finish too much, make sure you tell them you only want like half the serving so it doesn't go to waste.

The menu is limited, not like other places, which makes it easy to just choose what you wanna eat. The price of the AYCE is a bit pricey. Especially if you had a kid with you, then it's like $5 off the adult even if they don't eat a lot. That's hella pricey!

Anyway, this is my go to on a late evening of fun.

I dine at Sik Do Rak at least once a month. The cleanliness, reasonable pricing (especially for all you can eat), good service, good food, and late hours make it a standout choice for friends and families.

**Just a heads up though....solo diners might be turned away as they require a minimum party size of two to be served, so be sure to bring a friend!

Parking is available. They validate up to 1hr if you park in the parking lot. Metered street parking is also available and it's free on the weekends/state holidays and after 530pm

Staff is quick to sit you down and take your order. They're Korean speaking and hard to understand with heavy accent. But, don't give up...point to what you want on the sign. Note: You must have at least two people is least to sit down. This is my first time.

It's really Shabu Sabu style dining. My friend ordered two plates of ribeye, bulgogi, chicken, garlic, big size lettuce, two sauces, small side dishes of pickled vegetables, and Kim Chee.

Cooking and caramelizing your meats has such intense taste with dipping sauces which gives such savory touch. I didn't take additional pictures because I was super hungry. I threw some of that table red sauce for kick, but doesn't take away the natural flavors of meats. You know bulgogi is equivalent or similar to Japanese Teriyaki. Of course! You have to have rice to clear your palate in between all the delicate flavors!
Was I in heaven? You better believe it! Ciao!!!

I went back to this restaurant after about 7 years hoping it would still be open, & it was!!! It's still a great hole in the wall spot located @ Samsung Plaza. We got there at 10pm on a Friday night, theres a bit of wait since the location is small but it's worth it if you like Yakiniku style. Prices are reasonable for all you can eat meat. Not a vegetarian type of spot FYI. It's definitely for the MEAT lovers. They automatically bring you sides, & you order from the meat menu, & cook your own! Fast & friendly service. Every table has its own griddle to cook your food so you will walk out of there smellin like some yummy Korean bbq. So worth it & it stays open late!! paid Parking available.

Found a hole in the wall surprisingly very good food here , was rushing to find a lunch place. So happen to see this hidden spot ! Glad we came here , the meats were good. Service is great too , was busy they may be short staffed so food took a bit. Very clean inside here too. Y'all should check it out

I visited Sikdorak on a bustling Friday night around midnight, and despite the lively atmosphere, the limited staff of only two workers was evident. They were running back and forth, making the service a bit slower, but considering the apparent understaffing, I understood the situation.

The sizzling KBBQ stoves filled the air with smoke, and unfortunately, there were no vents to clear it. The AC seemed to bear the brunt of the smoke, appearing a bit dirty with built-in grease. However, the overall KBBQ experience surpassed many others on the island.

Parking was tight, but with a bit of patience, I managed to find a spot. Despite the challenges, Sikdorak's flavors and quality outshine the drawbacks, making it a worthwhile choice for KBBQ enthusiasts.

Hawkins was warm and outgoing, he was very prompt with servicing us and so was Kim. The food was tasty, well-seasoned and fairly priced.

ALOHA
The wife wanted to eat some yakiniku style food,where we cook our own.she heard of this place from our oldest daughter n son inlaw.
So we decided to try it out.
We came at opening time, early lunch n on an empty stomach as well.
Parking was a little hacked but we managed to get parking there waiting calmly.
As we walking, the place only had about 6 people, 3 couples in eating n enjoying their time n food.
You could just smell the food they were cooking.
The lady greeted us very polite n with a smile.
As I looked around inside, it was nice clean n cozy.
Everyone seemed happy.
We had the lunch special n order all kinds of meats n squid legs.
The food was coming out to us n ready to go.
As we cook our food, there was a moment of silence.
Grabbing a little of everything we order nplace it on the hot grill.
In minutes we were eating pacing ourselves to last long time.
The lady has great customer service and care n made sure we were all fine.
The food had great taste n flavor as well.
For me, it was the kimchee that really got me.
One of the best I ever had.
The flavor n taste to it was to die for .. it was awesome.
I also heard the other couple complement it as well, I look at them n gave them a thumbs up.
We eat till we dropped.
We got our money's worth for sure.
There's other options in the menu as well but we had the all you can eat special.
Will I come back again ... HELL YEAH FOR SURE
THANKS AGAIN N SEE YOU SOON

First time there and definitely will be the last.

First off: We arrived at around 8pm on a Sunday Sept 24 2023, and there was two females (Korean) working with no line to wait for a table. My wife, daughter (2 yr old), and I was waiting to be seated when one of the females (taller one) was cashing out a party of 6. The party of 6 decided to pay separately and we waited at the entrance for the first female to complete their sale. Meanwhile the second female (short one) employee didn't even bother to seat us or acknowledge us.

Second: After being seated the taller employee asked for my daughter's age and when I told her that she was two that employee gave us a very awkward stare as if she was going to charge us for my daughter. FYI my daughter did not even eat a single piece of meat instead she ate some of the rice from my only bowl of rice.

Third: when it came to ordering meats they only allowed 4 meats at a time but when we would reorder the tall employee would stop us at three meats and place the order without even asking for the 4th choice. Every time the tall employee would bring our orders or switch out the grill, she would slam the plates or grill on our table.

Water was never refilled until we had to flag the females down.

Last is THE BILL: We only ordered meat and did not order anything else (side dishes or drinks). We only had two bowls of rice total (for wife and I) and the menu on the walls stated that adult price is $29.60. Our BILL came out to $62 with tax included. Not too sure on how it came out to $62 at the most it should have been $61.66. When it came to the tip I decided not to tip them (due to the service that I stated above) and the taller female had the nerve to circle the tip suggestions listed on the credit card receipt. I informed her of my complaint and left the restaurant.

Sikdorak is a no frills KBBQ location, perfect for those late night munchies or cravings due to their affordable all-you-can-eat pricing (which did go up after covid).

They offer banchan, water, and a wide selection of meats with my favorites being chewy beef tongue, buttery beef brisket, rich pork belly and pork jowl, well seasoned shortribs, and even entire steaks and chicken thighs.

It is fast paced so if they seem rude it's because they're monitoring the grills if they need replacement, cutting meat, refilling banchan, and trying to keep the line moving. Every time I've been here I've had quality meats, flavors, and enough rice bowls to feed a small army.
