Come hungry, leave happy! 🥘🔥 I checked this place out after a friend’s glowing recommendation, and it did not disappoint! First of all—pro tip—if it’s your birthday and you bring a friend, you eat for FREE! Talk about the best birthday present ever. It’s All-You-Can-Eat, but they definitely don't skimp on quality. The meat was premium, the ingredients were super fresh, and the hot pot broth was so clean and tasty—zero "MSG thirst" afterwards! Also, the service was on point; they were swapping out our BBQ grill plates faster than we could empty them. 😂 Our group had a total blast. If you’re looking to feast, this is the spot. I’m already planning my next visit!

I only wish I had discovered this place sooner! ✨ Overall If you’re looking for a good all-you-can-eat hot pot and Korean BBQ spot, I would definitely recommend this place! 🥩 Food The quality of the meat was great and everything tasted fresh. The vegetables were fresh, and all the side dishes were delicious as well. Being able to finish the meal with dessert and coffee made the whole experience feel complete. As a Korean, I would confidently recommend this place. Of course, since it’s all-you-can-eat, you shouldn’t expect a fine dining experience, but among all the Korean-style hot pot and BBQ AYCE places I’ve tried in Austin and across Texas, this was by far the most satisfying and the best. 💰 Price I’ve been to many all-you-can-eat places in San Antonio, Houston, LA, and Austin, but this place really stands out in terms of value for money. Usually, you have to choose between hot pot or BBQ, or pay extra if you want both. But here, you can enjoy both without any additional cost, which makes it even more satisfying. Being able to have both hot pot and Korean BBQ at a reasonable price is definitely a huge plus. 🙋‍♀️ Service The staff were all very friendly and attentive, which ma

Highly recommend. Fresh meats and veggies, some were very unique that I only remember eating in Asia. Super attentive owner. If you see her (Il-Sun) have her give you the secret sauce recipe. If she’s not there ask a server for recommended sauces to have with your meal. Had the option to make fresh spring rolls which my mom loved. Probably one of my favorite hot pot experiences stateside.

A truly wonderful lunch experience. Firstly, the service is beyond exceptional; friendly, attentive and helpful. The ingredient selection is fresh and vast. The sauce station allows you to perfect your meal to your tastes. I cannot recommend this place enough for anyone looking for a new hot pot / bbq spot.

Insun and her team hosted our opening night party of our 17th Austin Asian American Film Festival. I loved this place when it was Chosun but now as DAM-A, it was great to see our party of 100 badgeholders take over on a Wednesday and have a great time over hotpot, kbbq & the hot bar! We also set up 2-3 tables that were for guests who were vegetarian to grill and cook at together. They worked with us for a very fair pricing for a special event and left those who didn't buy a badge to our event feeling that FOMO! Erika Rich, our photographer, really didn't need to try too hard to capture the fun time we all had. Our opening night filmmaker was able to also have a private room for 8 to dine in after a stellar packed screening of his film.
