Will never return again. I visited this place about a week ago with two other friends. Im of Korean origin and a huge fan of Korean BBQ so i was expecting a lot. Let me start with the goods - the service was nice (the lady was really kind), they gave us generous portions, and the interior had a contemporary feel to it. So before the food came out, I was really feeling good. Now here is why I will never return to this place again. We ordered three meat parts: pork belly, beef brisket, and marinated steak. The pork belly came in frozen. Completely frozen. And even after being grilled, the meat was tough. The beef brisket was the most bizarre. On the grill, it started sticking to the pan and the meat tearing apart. I have never seen a beef brisket that does this. All i can think of is the brisket was of the poorest quality or the meat was really old, or perhaps not even a brisket. The "brisket" was once again tough. The marinated steak was the most edible, but once again, you could tell that the meat wasnt fresh and hence, tough in your mouth. If this restaurant operated as such in Seoul, itd close down in a month guaranteed. Im not sure whether this was just this one time or not, but I will not be taking chances with this place in the future.

They are open late night! I used to go here frequently after I got off work, but we stopped going. I felt bad for making the employees wait on us even after they closed. I usually get the bulgogi and the pork belly. Beque has THEEE best pork belly, hands down! I love the thinness and crispiness of the pork belly. Their banchan selection is great! You have won me over if the fishcake banchan and bean sprouts are there. They refill any of the banchan that you may want more of. I love that they give you huge pieces of lettuce too. Their booths are super spacious. This place is very good for big groups. Theres plenty of seating. Nice, modern decor, with incredible lights and spice of color. They are open until 1am even on Sundays. As expected, you arent allowed to take your leftovers home. Another good thing is that if you dont want to do AYCE, you dont have to. One night, I passed up doing the AYCE and ordered a dish instead. I ordered the beef dolsot and my friend got bibimbap, I think. Both were nothing short of amazing per usual.

My KBBQ standards are far far lower for the bay area than for Socal. Keeping that in mind, this place aint too bad! $20.00 for AYCE KBBQ...Yes there is such a thing in the bay area. Why so cheap? Well because your options are limited. Theres only 5 things you can choose from and half of them are chicken. Although youre only limited to 5, the 5 meat options were actually tasty and if you EAT A LOT its worth it. So COME HERE HUNGRY! the downside is that the grill is kind of small and it takes a while to cook...especially the chicken :( The banchan were okay, nothing too special. What is really cool is that this place isnt smoky because their grill has a built in vent and it isnt loud from the fan either which gives this place a pretty nice ambiance :) Its a bit hidden, located in the back of the plaza but at night they have pretty bright neon lights. Worth a visit if youre hungry looking to devour meat for $20. Oh and there is no difference between lunch or dinner!

Im conflicted on my review of this place. I took my family 5 adults and 2 children to this place. I have to say there was no service. My 7 year old son had to go back and forth from the kitchen to bring stuff to the table. No one came to the table to ask if we needed anything. If you advertise all you can eat at least make it seem like youre getting your moneys worth through service. There was plenty of good meats but a small grill. This place is good for a max 4 people group. If you take more than 4 people you need two tables. So that everyone can eat at the same time. I spent the entire time feeding small portions to everyone while i cooked and then 2 hours later I got to eat my small portion. The food was delicious but exhausting for everyone as a large group.

A lot of people say vegetarians/vegans are missing out on flavors, but I can definitely say we are not! Ironically an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ place has some pretty good options for us plant-based people! Visited on a Thursday evening and it wasnt too jammed packed, name was called after 30 minutes of being on the list and we were served almost immediately! My group and I enjoyed the meal, the unlimited sides were one of the greatest parts. Price isnt too bad at all. Would definitely visit again!

We have so much fun here. We do the all you can eat, which is $20 a person. You get so much! First of all there are tons of side dishes and condiments. Start your grill with the unmarinated pork belly. The fat helps coat the grill. I recommend asking for half sized portions of the meat. They give you so much meat otherwise, youll fill up on just one flavor. The menu items are also very tasty. The wait can be long though, so consider making a reservation.

Always come here for lunch :) it doesnt have that many dishes for all you can eat but still those dishes fill up your belly real nice. The lady there probably hates me cause we always talk a bit loud sometimes lol but everyone who works there are super nice and friendly and the music is lit. and who doesnt want kbbq for $13 for lunch

Delicious all-you-can-eat KBBQ! They also have a la carte items on the menu, which can be handy if you have a vegetarian in your party. There are seven or eight different meats available on the AYCE menu, all tasty, and the sides are also excellent. The wait can be pretty long during popular times though.

Fantastic good, great service. First all you can eat that had such a great assortment of meats and sides that Ive been to in California and I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely go with the spicy bulgogi!

As usual, service was fast and we were able to get seated pretty quickly with a group of 7. Not a vast selection of meats, but the quality is amazing. The kim-chi is to die for though.

One of the best deals for KBBQ Ive been! $20 bucks for all you can eat Bulgolgi and unlimited side dishes! We have major food comas every time we eat here! For a good reason too!

Its good for the price! Limited selection in protein, but it was good. Definitely a rowdy crowd when the drinks start rolling. Staff was attentive and very nice.

Good prices for the unlimited amount of food. We had a large party of 15 people so it was a little cramped, however the service was great and friendly
