Jumak Skewers

I came here for the all you can eat skewers. The decor is unique. They have a self-serve sides (cucumber, onion, daikon, and powdered spice toppings), and sauce bar where you can also refill your water cups. The setup is like how they do it in S. Korea. You order your food on the electronic menu at the table. You can order up to 4 items at a time. If you want to order more, you have to wait a few minutes where you can then place an order for more. For the sides, you can order your items once. After that, you pay for extra. I tried the lamb, beef, pork, tofu, and chicken skewers. For the sides, I got the fried rice (it's actually sticky rice), chow mein (tasted like garlic noodles), mala soup (they use a spice that is numbing), and coconut shrimp. The "fried rice" was okay. Everything else was delicious. My friend and I was about to order more, but we decided to wait. Good thing we did; we ordered less than originally planned. The chef was amazing and friendly. We were happy with our visit and plan to come back! They have a rewards program that we signed up for. It's metered parking or structure parking where you pay. Metered parking is free during the holidays (they're listed on the meter).

Went here during their soft opening. They’re on the southwest corner of Raymond and Union, adjacent to the parking structure. We ordered a little bit of everything. The lamb skewers were by far my favorite thing. The galbijim was also very good. The carrots and potatoes absorbed so much flavor from the meat and stew.

Food was very delicious. The best skewers were the pork and chicken and the gyoza was delicious. The music inside felt like I was at a rave which I loved, it brought me back to my edc days. Overall a good place with good food.

Notice the pics in this review? Lots of sushi. Is it good? I guess so, but why did they have to mask everything with that much ponzu sauce, if the sashimi itself was already fresh? We waited a long time for the skewers, and they never came. When we addressed it with them, it took so much time to get the order fixed. They even sent us another table's potato swirls, which most likely means they sent our order to another table, and that table didn't say no I guess. When the skewers did come, it was OK, but not worth our wait. Throughout the night, even the next table to us kept having to say, "this isn't our order" and a lot was sent back. So if you're here on a Saturday night wondering why this place is so empty, don't think you found a diamond in the rough.

Since it is AYCE, I was worried about getting server's attention to order. However, it was very easy to order through the tablet. Getting the most out of my money! The food was of course great 🙂 I loved chicken skewers. I am really wondering if this place is profitable. Such a great price!!! Amazing crews, very helpful!! <3

Great place for Chinese skewers - the pork and chicken was our favorite. The beef was a bit dry. AYCE skewers come in at $25 a person but for $5 more you get appetizers like gyoza, shrimp, tempura, takoyaki, egg rolls, etc. Parking is street parking. Service was great.

TLDR: Waited 30 minutes for raw skewers on a slow night, not great side options, needs better quality food and service but is ideal for large parties if food is better I really hate writing reviews like this especially for a place that has such high potential. I was excited when this place was opening close by. What pushed me to write a 1 star review as that the skewers we ordered were RAW. The pork wasn't cooked all the way through on multiple skewers. We could forgive one but after the one 4 more were raw and that's half the order of 10 skewers. Additionally, they ran out of beef skewers. We were there on a Saturday night. What seemed like a red flag is we were one of 2 parties eating there at peak dinner time.... The sides bar were a bit lacking with only 2-3 options for sides and very little sauce choices. The only good thing we ordered were the fries. The fries are thicker and steak cut but fried to perfect crispiness. Service was a bit questionable as well as we had to order from the system ourselves and it's a bit confusing. Additionally, once ordered, the food wasn't brought to the table but we were called for to come walk and pick up our tray. This is not too much of a big deal of course but the pork being raw just made the experience feel worse. I think the skewers are charcoal roasted? Which is a preferred way of doing it but it's worth to note that this means longer cooking times. We had a significant wait for raw skewers )-: The interior is well designed and they have fun K-pop music playing. This place looks promising for a night out with a big party but many things about experience and food quality need to be improved. Since it's newly opened, we hope it gets better with this feedback!
