This was my first visit to a Korean BBQ restaurant in the U.S. I had been to Korea a couple times and had lived in Japan for 6 years and had wonderful memories of Korean BBQ in both countries. My husband and I came to visit a friend and decided to try out Korean BBQ and found Shilla. We were seated right away to a table and had chosen to get the Land Combination for 3. After a couple of minutes they bring out 6 little plates ranging from potato salad to kimchee and other pickled vegetables. They were all so good and spicy! Next came out was our individual bowls of rice and lettuce, ( i was so excited that they brought out the lettuce!! There is nothing better in this world then putting a freshly cooked piece of meat, a little bit of cooked rice and some soy sauce on top of the lettuce, wrapping it up and enjoying the harmony of flavors!!!). I did miss grilling the meat ourselves, but it was nice to relax and watch our waitress do all the grilling. The meats in the combination meal were spicy pork, chicken, ribeye and another beef along with veggies grilled too! We were so stuffed at the end of this meal! It was a great deal and an even greater experience. My husband and I will definitely come back when we visit our friend!
Pros: The amazing service, food and value.
Cons: Not being able to grill it ourselves.
