This was our first time at Jeju, and we will definitely be back. We started with the mixed appetizers, which were excellent. Then had a salad and shared the bulgogi skirt steak. Finished with the Jeju sundae. Everything was excellent, and the service was prompt and attentive without being obtrusive. Overall an excellent evening.
