"For our first visit, we decided to go with the American Wagyu set. It was not the most expensive option, but certainly not the cheapest. We also tried the sea urchin beef sushi and the seafood pancake (pajeon). Those familiar with KBBQ may find this experience different, as the grill is grated and uses an open flame, resulting in quick cooking times. This is crucial, as the high-quality meat and fat content make a noticeable difference.
Our dining experience felt like a culinary adventure, with each cut of meat offering a unique quality and mouthfeel. From the incredibly fatty A5 Japanese Wagyu Ribeye to the flavorful Salted Tongue, every bite was exceptional and distinctive. I highly recommend trying the shiso rice with the meat – it truly elevates the dish.
Tamaen is not your typical all-you-can-eat KBBQ spot, so you may not leave overly full. However, the superior quality of the meat makes it worth every penny. I am already looking forward to my next visit.
Regarding parking, the lot is located behind the restaurant, so be sure to keep an eye out, as it can be easy to miss."
