    What a great experience cooking the Korean BBQ at your table yourself. There was plenty of food & it was delicious. We left with our bellies full. The service was great & the staff were polite & very eager to please. It was such a pleasure being there.

    We had a wonderful time here! The food was great and the service was awesome. The folks at Goon even helped explain how to eat certain dishes as we weren't Korean, so this helped! Thank you, Goon staff!

    All of the food was delicious. For 3 people, we ordered a 2 person meat plate and some sides which was more than enough. The staff had AMAZING service, they explained all of the spices and sauces and would periodically check in to see if we needed anything. We will absolutely be going back. One of my new favourite restaurants.

    Food was good, very tasty. Would have liked more help with choosing meal,as like to try different dishes, but young lady had very little English., so communication was limited.

    Meat quality was poor, especially the “wagyu”. Overpriced for what it’s worth but there were some okay dishes.
