In the vibrant landscape of Korean BBQ dining, one restaurant stands out for its exceptional food yet battles significant service issues. While dishes like fried chicken, bossam, and spicy soups earn rave reviews for their flavors and quality, patrons frequently report frustrating wait times and poor communication from the staff. Many have experienced long waits for tables, with some even being overlooked altogether. Despite its culinary merits, the establishment's inconsistent service and occasional denial of entry before closing create a disappointing experience for patrons. Overall, while the food dazzles, diners are left yearning for improved service to match the meal.

What Dada Adriano dislikes about Gilson Korean:
The Worst customer service ever!The server lose patience really quick while we were ordering food and asking his recommendations. His attitude was terrible and his impatience was clear from both his expression and words. Will never come. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Service: 1 View all feedback.

Just a heads up, the last call for dining in is 10:15. I arrived at 10:30 and they couldn't seat me. That's alright, I'll come back another night.

Come here for the food and reasonable prices, enjoy the celebratory vibes with mostly young people, and leave satisfied. Everyone orders the 50/50 korean fried chicken for good reason. Expect a wait. Don't come if you want fancy and quiet. I felt lucky to have discovered this hidden treasure and the only hint I had was a full parking lot around a dull building. Perfection! Kim hi and fish cake is very good. Service: Dine in

Traditional Korean “magip” good taste restaurant) vibes with tasty Korean cuisine. So happy we can find a good Korean restaurant in Seattle. The pig intestines is awesome they cooked well already not grilled by ourselves since we were not sitting in the grilled area) not too oily .The octopus pot is excellent with many fresh octopus feet in it. If you crave a good Korean meal in Seattle just come to this place you will be satisfied with it. Service: Dine in

I was told Gilson in Korean means “road side truck food shack”, well if that’s so than this is the the area’s best Korean BBQ house! Top level service, authentic tastes and chill atmosphere ! Cant wait to return soon! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
