Daebak Korean Barbeque

Daebak was fantastic! Its a bit pricey, but well worth it. The food was high quality and very fresh. Even the lettuce was delicious!The service was outstanding. They also truly cater to those with food allergies. Once the server knew I had a food allergy, he accommodated me without even asking and brought out additional sides and pointed out what I couldn't eat. They even give you a service button to press when you want to hail your server. The menu also labeled gluten free options, so if you're gluten free, ordering will be a breeze.

I'm going to start with the bad... we are only 3 people, black snd gratuity of 20% was already added to the check. Given the lackluster service, I never anticipated giving them any more than 15%. On the menu, in 8 pt text it states, all parties MAY BE subject to a 20% gratuity. So.. this restaurant chooses to whom they think will not tip. I'd like to make it crystal clear that unless a party of 6 or more where maybe more work at a table is required, a tip is voluntary & complementary. A guest is only entitled and legally responsible for their bill. We were seated quickly and handed menus. The wait for service was about 20mins. We ordered and the food came out quickly. Sadly, not given utensils. Not greeted. No run over. Imagine fast food on speed with our initial hi, what can I get you. Luckily, I know how the restaurant works so I explained to the table. The dining room had about 5 occupied tables & 3 servers. We weren't checked on voluntarily ever but we did use the call button for obvious needs... rice, utensils, more sauce.. etc. Things started moving fast for other tables once the women came on the clock although they weren't assigned to our table. We asked for sugar for the tea and they not the cafe had sugar. Nor bottled water for purchase. We left with our bellies full and that's all that matters. I'm traveling through so I won't be returning and even if I lived here, nope... I wouldn't come back. The automatic add of gratuity, although I did ask for them to remove it & they did, rubbed me the wrong way. Nopeity, nope nope.

I really enjoyed the old Seoul Garden that used to be here so I was happy to see this open in the spot of a classic.I honestly really love the food here. They have a lot of nice options to choose from and their meats/flavors are good. Their side dishes are good and the wings in the soy garlic slap!!! Honest the wings and the radish that's with it are my favorite. Their tea is perfect brewed and I do like the steamed egg.So why 3 stars? The service needs a lot of work. I have been here about 5 times and the service (except for once) has been horrible. You ring that bell so many times and no one never comes. If they can get the service together, they deserve 20 stars.

My friends and I were able to secure a table for 6 this past Monday for dinner. We only had to wait about 30 minutes via walk-in, but I would highly recommend making reservations in advance if you know you'll be dining here.We initially came here with the intention to drink, but we ended up eating instead. They gave us two sets of banchan and there was plenty of options like pickled radish, kimchi, macaroni salad, and spring mix. However, the banchan was not worth writing home about and was at best just OK.Between five people, we shared a couple KBBQ platters (each order came with a steamed egg and soybean paste soup -- I didn't try the soup but the steamed egg was alright and not very fluffy):A3. BEEF COMBO (FOR 2) - 69* Thinly sliced brisket - Obviously, we started with the thinnest cut first. This was a pretty good start, the meat had a good balance of meat and fat, and overall the texture and flavor was good.* Short ribs - Tender and delicious, went well with the sesame oil with salt (this could use more salt in it). I only had a bite of it since each order comes with four small strips and there were five of us.* Prime ribeye steak - Pretty disappointing because it wasn't very flavorful and the cut was pretty tough.* Marinated short rib slices - This was probably most people's favorite cut that we tried. The marinade was lightly sweet and the meat was tender.A6. SIGNATURE COMBO (FOR 2) - 69* Prime ribeye steak - Similar thoughts from above.* Pork belly - I didn't try this because I'm not a huge pork belly fan, but my friends seemed to all enjoy it.* Pork shoulder steak - Meat quality was OK and it was on the tougher side than it was tender. In general, I don't really like pork for KBBQ, so i might be biased.* Marinated short rib slices - Again, similar thoughts from above. Quite delicious.The food overall was OK -- some cuts of meat were much better than others, but some fell short in terms of quality and flavor. The interior is nice and modern, but keep in mind you'll be doing all the cooking here (at least, we weren't given an option for someone to help us cook).

First time ordering lunch to go here, because I was in a rush. Lunch menu stop at 3 so front desk put in an order for me before kitchen take a break. Beef japchae, I figure it is a safe choice to pick for to go order. It just noodles. I got quite good amount of food. A small box for sides( kimchee and broccoli) then the main bowl I have japchae on top of a bed of white rice. Good flavor. Very fulfilling. $15 is pretty good deal.

This was my first time at a Korean bbq so it was a learning curve involved. My sister and I split the signature combo and also the corn cheese as an appetizer and an extra steamed egg. We had plenty of food to split and a lot of meat, definitely had to take a plate home. Food was very tasty and you have plenty of sauces and topping to build several flavor profiles. Service was okay, they were pretty busy so they had to squeeze us into the back next to a bigger party and the music kept cutting in and out and they had to come fix it numerous times. We didn't know that you get a buzzer to get your server to come nor did he tell us so we were stuck flagging down random servers for assistance. I will say that we didn't receive everything we needed in the end. They also added gratuity but I wasn't tripping since I had a good experience with the hiccups. This isn't the closest to me so I'm not sure if I will return soon but I will be looking at Korean bbq in my area.

I enjoyed my experience at deabak we seen their restaurant on a local influencer page decided to check it out and boy was it good few meats recommended from the servers and some very good sides come with every meal and me an my girlfriend had a wonderful time at this location very friendly. We will be back.

Could've been better (Yelp's 2/5 description) is on point. Food: got the marinated steak combo ($60). While known for 'high quality' meat, meat was not that. multiple pieces of steak not chewable. Tough (despite being cooked to less than well done quality). Also got the Kimchi Jiggae - odd flavor. I've never had something so sweet yet sour/spicy at the same time. Not pleasant. I also go the Sundubu Jjigae which was really nothing special and did not surpass other Korean restaurants like Chung Ki Wa/Soora. This place's specialty was KBBQ, and it was VERY sub-par. Service: Terrible. The bell to alert the server did not make the server come over. We were told we could only dine for one hour because of a reservation one hour later. At the one hour mark, there were plenty of tables, and this left a distaste for the restaurant when they said that. Could not get the hot plate changed for the longest time. Ambiance: very busy on Sunday brunch time. It seemed they were understaffed and overworked. This showed in their get in - get out - no attentiveness attitude.

We went as a family to celebrate our recently passed father. When we arrived the restaurant was loud and chaotic. it took quite some time to be seated. After 15 minutes of no waiter attending to us I went to the front. To ask for assistance. Instead the woman who I assume was a blond female floor manager of some sort gave me attitude, implying that somehow it was our fault that we had been ignored. Maybe she was having a bad day? But we all found her attitude unprofessional and off putting.Aside from that we had a very nice meal. The Food was well prepared and very tasty. I would recommend. But be aware that this is a very loud restaurant and people with hearing difficulties will find it challenging to hold conversation. No matter, they will be enjoying their food instead. Please retrain your staff to put the customer first rather than their personal problems. Especially when we spend $400 on a meal.

Been coming here for some time now. Usually snag a reservation as this place gets busy! Always a pleasant experience. This time we ordered the premium glabi combo for two which was some of the freshest beef I've had in Michigan in some time. We frequent between a few place but I think this needs to remain the spot. They are constant and prices are good. Love that more things keep getting added to this area/ plaza.
