Gabose Korean BBQ

UPDATE 8/27/11: See my post about Manna Korean BBQ for another Korean BBQ Experience

Gabose is an upscale Korean BBQ restaurant, with table-side hibachi as well as traditional entrees. I enjoyed my visit very much. Our night was made memorable by one of the owners joining us at our table for over half an hour, personally explaining the menu to us, and then demonstrating preparation techniques once our food arrived and the grill was lit.

I definitely enjoyed this restaurant and it's environment, and although the price point seemed a little high for the food alone (for tableside grilling you must order at least two $25 items), the personal service we received is something that literally can't be purchased at any price from many places.

The Food:
We ordered the beef and shrimp BBQ selections, which provided us with lots of food for grilling, as well as the traditional assortment of relishes and sides served at most Korean restaurants. It was more fun for me to grill table-side than fondue table-side, although the same heart-wrenching disappointment occurs when a piece of meat is lost through the grate into the coals as when it happens into a pot of oil, although with the oil it's easier to retrieve.

The Staff:
As mentioned above, absolutely outstanding. Our server spoke American English, which may affect your experience, depending on your preference for cultural immersion.

The Info:
Overall, Gabose is a safe venture into Korean cusine... there is something for even the most squeamish of dining company, and most of the truly exotic fare seems priced to appeal to only the most determined, well-heeled, and confident diners.
