Description

The best part about Go Goo Ryeo is that it's a do-it-yourself Korean barbecue joint where everything is done for you. But to experience the full splendor of the service, come on a Friday, or better yet, a weekday, during which the ratio of restaurant staff to diners will be stacked in your favor. They'll tend to the meats sizzling on your tabletop grill, turn over every piece of beef to check if it's properly seared, and snip the bacon into bite-sized swatches with scissors. Then they'll transfer every freshly grilled morsel to your plate one-by-one and answer in limited English how to eat it. There's a supply of mouthwash in the restroom in case you have some place to go afterward.

    Forget those tony, overpriced restaurants where great service is expected. Our kudos for best service goes to a place where there really shouldn't be any: a Korean barbecue spot. These establishments are, by their very definition, supposed to be DIY. Not so at Go Goo Ryeo. Go when they aren't too busy—say, a typical weeknight, and they'll hover over your table the whole evening, cook each piece of meat to your liking (the best deal is the $50 meal for two), ladle soup into your bowl, even instruct you on how to eat it all. It's like you've got a Benihana chef all to yourself, without the silly tricks and the goofy hats.
