Hae Song Korean B.b.q. - Federal Way

This restaurant is a hidden gem. The food is clean, fresh, and delicious. The Kim cheese had a perfect deep flavor. I ordered the Bibimbap, which was a mix of veggies and rice in a hot stone bowl, and it came with the best seaweed soup I've ever had!

I don't normally rate bad review, I try to understand the people who works for any type of career. But it's happened many times before, I rarely go to this place because of lack of service. I would recommend to pay attention to see if customers need anything and not ignore them. Yes it does make customers don't want to return, not recommend this place.

Overall, our experience at this Korean BBQ restaurant was good. We opted for set B3, which included spicy pork, bulgogi, prime beef, and chicken. The quality of the meat was top-notch, and there was ample quantity for the three of us- we couldn't even finish it all. The service was also excellent, with staff being attentive to our needs such as changing plates and refilling pickled veggies. However, I rated the restaurant 4 out of 5 because the plates required frequent changes due to the charred residue from grilling the marinated meat. Additionally, the ventilation system was not very efficient compared to other Korean BBQ restaurants I've been to. Other places have vents that can be brought down to the table for better suction.

I have driven past this restaurant for almost 10 years, but I finally decided to give it a try. The exterior could use a bit of updating as it looks a little worn down, but the inside was clean and separated into a BBQ section and a regular dining area. We chose the BBQ option, where you can grill your own meat at the table. The staff were helpful in showing us how to grill the meats and even assisted in cooking them. We were seated promptly and the staff were friendly. One good sign in an ethnically themed restaurant is if there are customers of the same ethnicity, as they often know the food quality. The BBQ menu consisted mostly of set meals with a choice of protein and side dishes like pickled vegetables, soup, and rice. Although it was a bit expensive, everything was fresh and well marinated.

Super clean with great customer service following all COVID guidelines. Portions are a generous size the packaging they use for leftovers are higher quality meal prep style reusable containers .
