Kat's 9 Lives

It's a little late, but better late than never. I think this is my favorite Korean B.B.Q. in Garden Grove. They have a lot of small dishes that are pretty good. I love that they have JapChae for a side dish occasionally.
The service is pretty good overall. Their all you can eat is $16.99 and bring everything to your table. They don't have as many choices but I have begun to like the non-marinated meat here a lot more. For the table they first bring out all the small dishes. There is a small black pot at the table that is the marinade for the pork belly. They also give you a Jjigae and Egg Pot.
First round they will bring you all the meats. A huge plate of Non-Marinated Brisket with Pork Belly and a dish of marinated meats. This includes Teriyaki Chicken, Bulgogi, Spicy Pork, and a huge White Onion. I like to smother the grill with the onion first to add flavor, but they immediately dump the brisket onto the grill so I do it afterwards. They have two dipping sauces at the table, the typical spicy sauce and jalapeño sweet soy sauce. I always have to have my salt & pepper with sesame oil, bean paste, and fresh garlic.
The first time I came here, I made the mistake of ordering Cold Noodle. It was good but you shouldn't order anything else when you paid the all you can eat. I took it home and it was gross after a few hours. If you went there and just order the cold noodle that would be a meal in itself. Of course that will never happen when there is all you can eat! Who can resist!
All in all the food is really good and I go back quite often. It is simplistic and delicious. Even though they don't have Kalbi, I am satisfied with my non-marinated brisket! The price is also good for dinner, I really don't like the pay for each plate of meat. You pay a lot more for better quality meat, but can you really tell the difference? This is one of the RARE times I choose quantity over quality, since it isn't even that noticeable!
