We rolled in with less than 10 minutes before last call (basically expecting to eat air for dinner) & instead got welcomed like it was no big deal. Ricky, our server, was so patient & kind. He gave us extra time, checked in often, & never once made us feel like a burden. Honestly, he saved us from being full-on hangry monsters.
The food? Amazing. The udon deserves a standing ovation. & since it was last call, they even let us bring left overs so nothing went to waste (not their everyday policy, but a thoughtful, food-conscious move that worked perfectly for everyone).
What I really liked was how they adjusted depending on the situation. A few people even arrived later than us, & the staff still made it work. It's clear that if you show up polite & understanding, they meet you with the same energy.
Cozy vibe, perfect little jazz music at the right volume, & service that turned a chaotic rainy night into one of the best evenings I've had in a while. 100% recommend (& next time, I swear I'll get there on time).
We went on a Saturday night. The food was good, but the overall experience was unpleasant. The restaurant was clearly understaffed. A lot of our orders were missing. In between batches, my friends & I were waiting on empty table for half an hour. The staff were sooo busy. We asked at least 5 times if our order were still coming, every time they said yes. In the end we waited so long that we weren't hungry anymore, just wanted to finish the experience. For this price range, there are lots of other choices.
The wife & I misread the closing hours & showed up at 9pm on a thursday night. We found out on arrival that the kitchen's last call would be at 9:15 - not ideal for a BYOB AYCE experience…EXCEPT our server Ricky took the time to explain in detail how the chef could prepare a full course tasting menu & they could extend the kitchen's closing time by an extra 15min (we pushed it to 25min, but it didn't seem like too big of a deal). All in all we were very happy that we decided to stay & got to taste basically the whole menu, even if that last-call curated menu is a bit carb heavy. Big thanks to Ricky for his patience & understanding, & of course thank you to the kitchen staff for sticking around a few minutes longer for us!
Once again, we went to Kui for supper, & it was simply amazing!
There is a reason we go to this little gem time & time again. The food is simply good & consistent. Nice shrimp, cut of beef premium, the service is attentive, & M. Lee & his wife are so nice. I find it important to give good review for restaurant but also like to continue to give them praise when granted. Being a customer of Kui since they opened & after going there numerous times will say It's my number one restaurant to go to for a nice supper.
Edit!!! Went to Kui tonight, & after going there numerous times, I am so happy to go there. The food is amazing... the best fresh meat & M. Lee is such a nice gentleman, always happy to see us, & always goes out of his way to make us feel welcome. It is a loud, fun & happy place. It's a bring your own wine, so if you want to try a real good Korean grill experience, you need to go se M. Lee at Kui!
Went there on a whim!!! Actually, the smells kinda brought us in. As I love Korean BBQ, I was excited to see one in Verdun. The place is nice. The BBQ grill works on butane, & I find them a little slow versus some place that use Natural gaz, but overall, when the plaque is up temperature we have a nice sear. The beef & chicken were very tasty as the appetizers we took. The staff is friendly & is very eager to please. Overall a great experience, & as a new restaurant in Verdun, I wish them good fortune & all the best!!
