"All you can eat Korean BBQ in the Queens area. I do not recommend visiting. Food Recommendation: steamed egg and pork skin. Food: The menu offers 19 meat options 3 chicken, 7 pork, 8 beef, 1 squid and 8 sides including garlic jalapeños, white rice, and salad . The steamed egg is good, and the pork skin has a sweet flavor that I liked. The other meats are okay, except for the pork belly, which had an unpleasant taste 腥味 —I’m not sure how to describe it. Pakring: Street parking. Price: We end up paying 50 bucks including tax and tip. To be honest, it is not a cheap all-you-can-eat, considering what they offer. I was looking forward to the meal and sadly it does not worth the price. The following are the reasons: 1. You can 't really eat much because of the taste: The BBQ meats are heavily seasoned. The radishes are bland so you don 't have food to cut through the grease. The beef soup is heavy on the white pepper. We drink more than 4 cups of water. 2. Their grill is a round plate and the oil splatters a lot—I got splashed several times. If you go, I recommend wearing a good jacket and hopefully you have your hair protecting your face. 3. 100 minutes seating limit. My first time to see a seating time limit for a buffet. 4. Suggested tip for all parties begins from 20%, with option of 20%, 22%, and 25%. 5. One buck per ice cream. They mentioned that they had a sale on Melona for 1 bucks each. While it takes only 15.59 for 24 counts in Costco. It’s pretty generous of the restaurant to serve all-you-can-eat and then only charge $1 per Melona. In all, I regret my 50 bucks."

"DISCLOSURE Look at my past reviews and it 's rare that I have to rate a restaurant 1 or 2 stars. You have to be real bad to get such a rating from me. We 've been to both CIP 1 and 2 over the years MANY times. We 've been choosing #2 over #1 just because it 's easier to get a table and that it is newer but the last 3 times the service has been pretty bad actually this last time was atrocious and the reason why we will not go back. Our server Mikyung was like from another planet. We asked for Hot Tea or Hot water None available. What kind of Asian restaurant doesn 't serve hot drinks???? Ask for beer and soda it 's served in 30 seconds because they get paid for that). The first time coming to our table of 6, she tried to serve us a big plate of Thin Brisket. We did not order this this stuff is cheap fatty meat). We asked for other items that we liked and normally more expensive meat) and that was served but in much smaller amount. When we asked for more refills on the small amount of side dishes salad and Jap Chae) she told us no more. More veggies? Well each time, it gets less and less. We have 6 adults and the amount wouldn 't even satisfy 2. The next time we asked for more meat, the server said that we need to finish up the prior items completely before she would get the new stuff. That was the first time ever any server asked us such a direct question like that even though we were just about done with the first course). After that things went downhill from there. Each time we asked for more items, she would treat us as if she was doing us a favor and like we were asking too much. The 2nd round of food, we asked for chicken and other meat items. She brought us 2 large servings of Chicken even though we asked for 1). Now we get the grand scheme.... They try to fill us up with the cheap food so they don 't have to give us the more expensive beef items. The server comes around often to adjust the flame with the stove knob. Instead of using her hands, she uses the same tongs that is used to serve us food. Those tongs are also used to serve other tables and customers. When we complained, she smiled and gets a new tong for us but that should have never happened. After the 2nd course, she asks us if we want the dirty/burnt cast iron pot changed and if so, we need to clear/eat up the remaining food on the pot. She should have offered to do it for us instead of directing us as if we were doing her a favor type of attitude. When the chunks of meat were cut too large, I asked for a scissor so I can cut myself I actually prefer to do my own cooking and serving). She gave it to me and when I started to cut it, she immediately took it away and said I 'm doing it wrong. I 'm the one eating it they should be happy to let me do it my way small bite sized portions). It 's hard to explain entirely the attitude shown to us during the entire meal that we experienced but to get this level of service for the price we paid around $300), I expect MUCH better and not as if we were 2nd class citizens. At K BBQ, we usually tip 25% and up because the amount of work involved but this is the first time I had a hard time justifying even 15%. We eat at O2 BBQ close by which is about the same price but FAR more choices and excellent service but try to spread the business around. No more. There 's a big reason why CIP #2 has always less customers than #1 even though the first is a bit older and not as modern looking). In the end, we ended up eating much less than we normally eat and that is not a lot to begin with). That 's because of the horrible experiences and 3 times in a row. 3 times at bat and now we are OUT."
