I too am confused why this isn’t rated higher. Son and I were greeted and seated immediately even though a line was forming outside (move in at at Cornell). Son ordered pork bento box and I ordered the soba noodles with beef. We also ordered appetizer. Food was delivered timely, prepared perfectly and with wonderful flavors. Top place to dine.
I am confused why this place has less than a 4.5.
Walked in immediately greeted and seated, less than 30 seconds on a Friday. Table was clean. Order was taken within 5 minutes
Ordered kalbi and grilled it ourselves. Meat quality and portion size was very good. Kimichi was solid. Side dishes were great, soy bean paste leaned a little salty but had a great taste when applied to a lettuce wrap.
Entire time we were eating the manager and or owner was front of the room scanning to ensure customers had anything they needed. With simple eye contact I was able to get boxes to go and the check.
All around great experience will be coming back. Thank you for the delicious food.

Excellent food, amazing staff, a great experience! Had the barbeque combo 2 and it was great. Recommended for fans of Korean food and anyone in general
Four Seasons serves some of the most delicious food in Ithaca. Everything I've eaten here is top notch, and service is extremely fast for how busy this place gets. It's not cheap, but you get generous portions of outstanding food. This may be the restaurant whose food I crave most, and I find some of the lower reviews totally incomprehensible.
Why four stars instead of five, then? While the service is otherwise great, I've found some staff dismissive and inconsiderate when it comes to a medical dietary restriction. That's a "minus" not everyone will experience, but something to know for those with food allergies.
Delicious Korean BBQ with good service and affordable price. Aside from the fact that our veggies didn't look very fresh and the meat slices were a bit too thick, this place is really good! I really like one of their side dishes: baked potato in lightly sweet sauce. Will probably go there again whenever I want to eat BBQ!
Overall decent quality food at a reasonable price as well as sake bombing. I got the squid bi bim bop which was surprisingly good. Emphasis on the word decent with regards to quality, however. Doesn't compete with authentic joints.
This was an incredible dining experience. We ordered six entrees between three people that I’ve never tried before, and I was extremely impressed! Can’t wait to go back
Decent place, my favorite is their tofu soup. They have some healthy tasting dishes as well, but they can taste quiet bland at times.
Research Korean BBQ and how to cook at one before going. Food was good but felt a little unwelcome.
We came here for kbbq (as first-timers) and ordered bulgogi & samgyeopsal-gui, as well as miso soup & dumpling soup. Everything came out quickly and was very tasty! We received 6 sides with the barbecue as well as bowls of rice. The sides were so yummy and we received refills of kimchi for free! Overall, a great experience. Everything came to about $40 as well! The only "bad" moment was an awkward interaction with an older lady (possibly the owner?) who slightly rude and very confused about the fact we didn't have anything on the grill at the moment. We were just eating and hadn't put on new meat. It was our first time doing korean barbecue so maybe we were just missing something lol
My No.1 Korean Restaurant in Ithaca. The soups are delicious!
Overall I think the restaurant was a really fun atmosphere. I personally am not an egg fan (which is common in Korean dishes), but their dishes without egg are pretty appetizing. I personally wish they included more sake with the sake bomb and a larger beer size similar to their competitors, but I'm pretty sure their sake bombing is on the cheaper end.
First, we loved our waiter Israel. Such great service and he really went out of his way to be friendly and helpful.
We had the LA galbi, Dolsot bibimbap, and gochu pajeon - all very good for Americanized Korean. After living in SK for 2+ years this definitely satisfies the Korean cravings (and the ambiance fits the hole-in-the-wall Kbbq spots, where else do you get Hangul wallpaper?).
