What User likes about Busan Korean BBQ:
I went with my family to celebrate Mother's Day. It was a pretty good experience overall, price was good for the food, we ordered a lot of beef and it was pretty well season, the metal cover where the food is barbecued gets covered in burnt food after a while so we called the waiter over to get it changed which is highly recommended.

Busans is a Korean BBQ restaurant that offers a unique dining experience where you cook your own food at the table. While the self-serve aspect might not be for everyone, it can be a fun night out once you get the hang of it. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food is fresh and delicious. The atmosphere is modern and tidy, making for a pleasant dining experience. While the food quality could be better and ventilation improved, Busans is a decent option for a Korean BBQ meal if you're in the area.
