GOGIRO | Korean BBQ & Shabu Shabu Hotpot

Defeated by Soup, Saved by Chris I came here for hot pot. I left having undergone a personal reckoning. The all-you-can-eat is not a meal—it is a challenge. A trap. And I fell for it. Everything was incredible, especially the Chinese Hao Gao broth. Tragically, I could not finish it because I ate too much of literally everything else. This is a moral failure on my part. Enter: Chris Chris is not a server. Chris is a higher being. A hospitality deity. He appeared exactly when needed and refilled everything before I noticed it was empty. He gently consoled me as my tears flavored the broth, like a monk guiding a fallen disciple back toward inner peace. "It’s okay," he seemed to say with his eyes. "You loved deeply. You ate bravely. You did your best." The food is amazing. The vibes are immaculate. The portions will humble you. I will absolutely be back. I will absolutely overeat again. Five stars. Ten for Chris.

Their hot pot is amazing! My family has been looking for a good hot pot spot in the Silverdale area and this one hits all the marks. Our waiter Chris was great. The tablet to order your soup/meat was a smart addition and the side bar is very generous.

By the far, the most bang for your buck kbbq I’ve been to in Washington. It’s the same price as the AYCE spots in Seattle, but they offer better quality appetizers in the regular menu. Service was very good and the discounted happy hour is a major plus.

I was surprised that they were just having their grand opening now, as they've been open for about 8 months. I decided to go with one of their lunch specials instead of the all you could eat. The food and my server were excellent. The server, Dominic, was one of the best customer service people I have encountered in my lifetime. He was kind, attentive, and did not hesitate to answer all of my questions. Extremely personable, I would want him as my server at any time. The food was excellent. The portions for the lunch special were quite adequate, and I'm not leaving they're hungry. As far as the atmosphere goes, I found it to be a little too cold and industrial feeling. Echoed a bit and I would like to see a little bit more hominess in its feeling, but that is just personal preference.

We had heard that this place was open so we decided to give it a shot. This was a first time experience for us, we were eager for what was in store and I must say, it was beyond our expectations and quite a lovely surprise. The food is high quality, with many selection to choose from. We were able to use our culinary creativity in concocting our different meals. The meats were presented very well that attributed to the appeal. My family all chose the beef broth whereas I chose the Gogiro broth, which is just a little spicy but not too spicy. There are several different spicy sauces available at the food bar for those that like to customize their level of spice to their food. The service was prompt and polite, friendly welcoming and very helpful in enjoying our first hot pot experience. Our server, Sihyun, did not bother us but was always on time in meeting our needs. She was informative and respectful. The athletics of the atmosphere must have been done by a professional designer. The ambiance all blend well together in improving the mood of the experience. We felt as though we had a level of security and privacy but also able to converse with neighboring tables if we so choose to. We will be back for the Korean BBQ porion another day, maybe tomorrow. 😉

Outstanding quality of food, and stellar service. The hostess showed us what options were available to us with the Korean BBQ and explained how they do things here. The meat was brought out quickly and it felt like the moment we were done with one set of meats (you get 3 at a time) the waitress was right there to ask us what we wanted next. The grill top was refreshed right when it needed to be, but not so soon that we were always waiting for it to get hot. Perfect timing! The quality of the meats really stood out. My wife and I have been to many Korean BBQs all over the country and the quality of the raw meats here was notable. The atmosphere, though busy and a little loud, was good and the music was enjoyable. The table was clean and the options were plentiful. Though they expected a 1 hour wait when we got there, we were notified a table was ready 5 minutes later. Being that this is a soft open, they're probably still figuring out what their turnover rate for tables is, so I'm not thrown off by it. The price was a bit steep at $36/person for the limited menu and $40/person for the full menu (premium options). This is a bit more than most korean BBQ places we go to but for the quality of the food, attentiveness of the staff, the cleanliness, and the options available; it's definitely worth it! The water wasn't delicious though.

It’s my first time here with my hubby, dtr and 2 sons. We celebrated my son’s 20th bday🎊The server/waiter CHRIS is awesome! He has good rapport, nice, attentive! Same with the others who brought the orders❤️We had very good experience! Will definitely recommend the place to everyone! Very good food😋We’re stuffed👌Overall satisfied with the service! Keep up the good work and hoping this place stays long in the area🙏
