The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we always had everything we needed. The restaurant was clean and had a great atmosphere for dining with friends and family.

“An incredible Korean BBQ restaurant with exceptional food and even better hospitality. The service makes you feel as though you’re dining in someone’s home, with genuine warmth and attention to detail. The meal comes with nearly 18 different banchan, each one fresh and delicious. Every part of the experience was outstanding—I highly recommend it.“

“Great place for Korean BBQ“

“Didn't know they had more than one restaurant in the L.A. area. This is the second one we tried and it didn't disappoint, it was just as good as the first time and second times we visited the Koreatown location. The service, the food, everything is great.“

“Best BBQ place in town! We’ve been coming here almost every week, and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. The service is excellent too — everyone is friendly, welcoming, and always takes great care of us. Definitely one of our favorite spots. Highly recommend!“

“We are BBQ folks. We smoke our own and have traveled the country trying different spots. There is so much that goes into BBQ. For those of us who truly love it; it's an art form and science of cuts, color, bark, brine -- the whole deal. We've experienced much of the local (Southern California) flavor and have found a few spots that excel. We moved up to Pasadena recently and were Yelping to see if there was a BBQ spot up here that we could try. When we came upon Mission I was skeptical. It didn't make sense that a BBQ spot would do catering and weekend farmer's market stuff. The only way to see if the reviews were legit was to give it a shot. We found the location at the farmer's market tucked away and because we were late in the day, had to pick from the meats that were left. Ribs, brisket, mac & cheese -- and the two sauces they stocked (mild & spicy). Our order was bundled and we brought it home and launched into the meal. Brisket -- soft, moist, flavorful. Brisket is not easy to cook. It can get dry and -- sometimes greasy from the fat. This was none of that. It was excellent -- some of the best ever. 5/5!!! Ribs -- very good. Solid. My personal perfect-preference is ribs that are just a touch less moist -- but we are talking the difference between 98/100 or 94/100. They were solid. Great flavor. Mac & Cheese. Excellent. Texture, color, flavor, taste -- all outstanding. 5/5!!! Sauce. We had a cup of each of their offerings: spicy and mild. Each had a lovely smokey flavor. The spicy had a nice kick without blowing the back out of your throat. Again -- this is a little nitpicky, but we find the perfect sauce to be a touch less sticky. We've had great first meals and horrible second meals at certain spots and horrible first meals and great second meals. We like to try the food several times before writing reviews so we ordered again for another experience. This time we added baked beans, burnt ends, and smoked chicken to the meal. Second time was exactly as great as the first time. Everything was solid, solid, solid. Now -- the thing that gives Mission six-stars is the folks behind the food. These people are dedicated to making a contribution to the world through food as few are. They are kind, generous, dedicated -- truly amazing!!!! Judith and her family are the kind of folks I want to invite over to have the food we just bought from them!!! Wonderful, wonderful people!! Thank you so much Mission!!!! We are dedicated fans and followers for as long as you make food!!!“

“The staff here are the friendliest I’ve ever had at a Korean BBQ place. Along with being friendly, they are quick to bring you what you need. The food is great and the service is awesome! Love this place!“

“This was my first time going to this place & i’d have to say, it’s pretty good. Food was great, servers were nice. Although they do take a bit long to take any other orders from your table. Kind of unfair to have a 90 minute time limit when most of that time is cooking and waiting. Again, food was really good, EXCEPT FOR THE ICE CREAM!!!! I had to try the ice cream and I was extremely disappointed. Took 2 bite and couldn’t even bring myself to eat it. Tastes COMPLETELY artificial and frost bitten. NOT GOOD!!! Everything else is great.“

“Popped in because its always time for meat. Loved tge atmosphere, and the language lessons in the bathroom. The food was great. The only downside was lack of my favorite banchan and the high prices of solutions. I'll be back.

With my own bottles. ;)“

“All you can eat for $40👏🏽👏🏽“

“Good food, great service. What more can you ask for?

We made reservations online via Yelp and a day before our reservations (a little under 24 hours), I received a text message to confirm them. All you have to do is hit 1 and reply to the text or go to the link provided and it'll take you to the app to confirm. Super convenient!

Our other party arrived minutes before we did as we were stuck in traffic and the staff immediately said the table was ready. My family opted to wait for us and we arrived shortly after noon.

Once we all together, we were immediately seated and was pleasantly greeted by our lovely server. She was amazing and super attentive! She provided recommendations and we placed our orders immediately. Both tables chose the $39.99 all you can eat option.

Tables were both set up with starters that included a house salad, macaroni salad and kimchi. Table settings included plates, plastic cups for water, utensils, napkins and sauces.

We all started with the Boneless LA Galbi, LA Galbi and PRIME Boneless Short Rib. Meat was tender and delicious and the dipping sauces were great. We also ordered sides of the following (with the first being the best in our opinion):
- Cup Ramen Fried Rice
- Korean Fried Chicken Bites
- Corn Cheese
- Loaded Tots (Cheetos)
- Gyoza (Beef & Vegetable)
- Steamed Egg

Everything was piping hot and made to order for the sides. I highly recommend making reservations as lines were starting to form about 30 minutes after we arrived. Parking can be a little difficult if you're street parking but there are plenty of spaces available all on Spring St.

We are definitely coming back! Thanks, DTLA AYCE KBBQ!“

“Fire. Literally fire. I recommend it 11am opening is a great time to stop in“
