All in all a cozy little place with tables and and barstools to watch the game and listen to live music. a great little reasonably priced get away spot. Kevin“

“Ordered the mixed BBQ plate and a few musubi on the go. The portion for the plate is generous and the size of the musubi is good. However, the taste of the food is generally okay without any pleasant surprises. It is definitely a go to place for getting good food at great prices.“

“We booked this for an important family dinner that I really needed to get right, and the venue absolutely came through for me. From the moment we walked in, the staff made the whole evening feel a bit special without ever overdoing it. They'd given us a beautifully set table tucked away enough to feel a bit private, our server was warm and engaged throughout, and the food was honestly some of the best we've had in months. Every course came out perfectly cooked, generously portioned, and beautifully presented. We worked through a starter each, mains, and a shared dessert at the end, with the staff quietly bringing out a little candle for the birthday in the middle of our group without us having to ask. That gesture absolutely made the evening for the person it was for. The pacing of the meal was textbook — never rushed, never forgotten — and we had plenty of time between courses to actually talk to each other. The bill at the end was very fair for the quality of the whole experience. The family has already agreed it's our new go-to for any kind of special occasion. Lovely place.“

“Su’s is such a welcoming place with amazing food that you can customize to your liking! It’s clean and well kept. The food is cooked right in front of you so you know everything that is going into your meal. When it’s busy, it does get loud but I take it as a sign of a well loved place with lots of happy people!“

“The food was the bomb! The mac and cheese was off the hook delicious. I couldn’t stop eating it! My hot link was cooked perfectly. My wife had the fried fish with the yams and fries, and loved it. In fact, my son, who had the maple pecan waffles and chicken, finished off my wife’s fish, along with the cornbread muffin and fries. The food was so delicious that my wife came back to the downtown location the next night with her friends before they went to see “ And Juliet” at Broadway San Jose! We definitely will be back to the downtown location before our next Broadway SJ show,and plan to go to the other location on Monday!“

“At poke places, it is so important for the food to be fresh. You don't have to worry about this here. The staff is willing to help you arrange your bowl if you want any suggestions about pairings. Highly recommend!“

“I made my first order from Empire Armadillo BBQ through DoorDash today. As a huge fan and loyal customer of Armadillo Willy’s, I was so sad when they closed most of their restaurants. However, the ribs I received today from Empire were the best I’ve EVER had. They were incredibly delicious and I’m already planning to visit this place frequently.“

“First time there and the food was absolutely amazing - can not recommend the brisket“

“Tried meat only, brisket, tri-tip, and pulled pork since on keto diet right now. Brisket was tasty & tender with a good amount of smoke on it, just how I like it. What's the point of bbq if you can't really taste that the meat was smoked? Also enjoyed the tri-tip & pork. When I am in the area and have a hankering for great BBQ, which is often, I'll be back“

“Great food. Steeler Nation!“

“Love it experiences …. 😍🥰“

“Best tritip!! best potato salad!!! best beans!!! best garlic bread!!! best customer service!!! The only BBQ I will ever eat here in south bay! prayers they come to san mateo and alameda County fairs next summer! and state fair!“

“The food was good. The fried chicken po boy was awesome“

“Friendship BBQ is such a fun spot if you’re looking for a casual place with good food and a lively atmosphere. I really enjoyed the flavors — the BBQ/skewer-style dishes were tasty, well-seasoned, and perfect for sharing. The place has a comfortable, social vibe, which makes it great for going with friends or trying something different for dinner.

I also tried the IV beer, and it definitely made the experience more unique and memorable. The overall vibe felt fun and relaxed, and I liked that it wasn’t just about the food but also the experience. Definitely a spot I’d recommend if you’re in the mood for flavorful BBQ and a chill night out.“

“A old school broiler with awesome people running the business. I had the French Burger, absolutely delicious. Will be back for another great meal. Also the bathrooms are so clean and nice smelling.“

“Great food, drinks and people!“

“Really good local joint for excellent Hawaiian BBQ. So many good menu selections with bbq nix. Different plates, chicken katsu, kalua pork, etc. Staff is really friendly and helpful and they are always have good traffic and plenty of seating.“

“Really good bbq! My family and I love coming here!“

“Great food. I loved the pancit, but they were out of Adobe.“

“the best brisket Italian sausage“

“I could not be more stoked about a restaurant than this one. This place has the best tandoori meats and today I got to try a pani puri too and man!!! did my taste buds transport to New Delhi days or what!!! I ordered a combo plate with lamb chops and lamb sheesh kabob. Perhaps the most tender and meatiest lamb chops ever and amazing value for money. The owner himself is vegetarian, yet seems to have perfected meat and veg tandoor dishes. this place is Magic!“

“Tobang delivers a classic Korean BBQ experience with generous banchan, quality meats, and a lively, welcoming atmosphere. The staff keeps the table stocked, refreshes side dishes without being asked, and checks in at the right moments, which makes the meal feel smooth and well‑paced. Service is attentive but never intrusive, and the team moves with a steady rhythm that keeps the grill active and the table organized. It’s the kind of place where the grill becomes the center of the table and everyone naturally gets involved.

The food itself is flavorful and satisfying, from the sizzling cuts of pork galbi, cha dol baegi, and short ribs to comforting dishes like seafood tofu soup and kimchi fried rice. The seafood pancake is crisp and generous, and the Yakult at the end adds a fun, nostalgic touch. The variety of banchan keeps the meal balanced, and the mix of marinated and non‑marinated meats gives everyone something to enjoy. It’s a great spot for groups, casual dinners, or anyone craving a hands‑on dining experience with plenty of shareable dishes.

Overall, Tobang offers a dependable and enjoyable Korean BBQ outing. The atmosphere is warm, the portions are generous, and the service keeps everything running smoothly without rushing you. Whether you’re coming with a small group or a larger party, the experience feels communal in the best way, and the food delivers consistent flavor and comfort.“

“delicious. love the jerk sauce“

“Very Good quality of meat barbecue. But service is bad.“

“This store is expert of Chinese BBQ for a long time. Roast ducks and piglets are the best among San Jose BBQ stores. Squid is tasty too. I will go back here for sure. I hope the store can look a little bit clean and neat. It will definitely attract more customers.“

“Tried the spicy combination suyuk, a hotpot with beef tendon, beef brisket, ox tail, etc., chives and mushroom. The soup base is tasty and the portion is generous with small kimchi dishes. Overall the beef is tender but not quite the premium beef quality we can get for hotpot in other places. The price is on the high side so we hope for more premium quality. Overall we enjoy the dish.“

“Best Smoked Crispy Pata (which has to be ordered ahead) and cornbread! Chef adds his special ingredients to the dishes and the taste is out of this world! This restaurant is a must try for all you foodies.“

“When I first walked in, I wasn't sure what to expect, because it looks a little dated, but not bad, but then I received my delicious meal, very well prepared, everything was delicious, and the service just as good, will definitely be returning....“

“Came here several times for the amazing weekday lunch specials (bossam!) and the bbq. Prices are good, the food is delicious, and everything is clearly made with a lot of love and care. They have amazing service and the incredible side dishes. We finished every. single. thing on the table.“

“Friendly and helpful staff, great environment, attentive. my first time having Caribbean food and got the jerk chicken, the extra sauce is highly recommended for the extra kick.“

“Very nice ambiance and great service. All staffs look professional and prompt.“

“Pizza took a little longer than usual to get but other than everything was perfect.“

“The staff is friendly and quickly steps in to help grill the meat, making the whole experience smooth and easy. The meat is good quality — well-marinated and tender. They also serve generous portions of large intestine, which is a nice touch many places skip.
Overall, it’s one of the stronger Korean BBQ options in San Jose. The only improvement would be offering more variety in banchan sides.
I’ll definitely return next time I’m craving Korean BBQ“

“It's a food truck restaurant. But they have covered seating which they share with another pop up Mexican restaurant.A sign in the sidewalk directs you inside a driveway. It's the covered restaurant right there in the left. You can't tell because the sign is for the restaurant they share the eating space with.Menu is very limited but it's well prepare and good.Lumpia is fresh; he rolls and then deep fries them right there. The chicken with garlic rice is tasty. The garlic rice is actually white rice topped with toasted garlic. Try the pork and tocino skewers.“

“edamame is bomb and so delicious. and service is the best“

“The Monterey Rd restaurant is kuddos 5stars. The restaurant is always clean, the service is great the delivery is quick and OMG the food is impeccable good. I have referral numerous family members and friends to this one restaurant. I fell in love 3 12 yes ago and now I'm a regular. the food is clean, healthy and very tasty.“

“The aunties here are so sweet and are so very attentive/kind! Food-wise, they make a lot of their banchan from scratch and you can tell the food here has so much heart put into it. Maybe it's a good thing after all that we had an issue with our reservation tonight at that... other restaurant that starts with B and rhymes with pong... Found our new fave mom-and-pop kbbq spot! We will most certainly be back.“

“Crispy pork belly brought us to this restaurant. It didn’t disappointed us, so as another dish - house special pan fried noodles. The dishes were tasty and big portion. The Fried noodles was crispy and topped with mushrooms, fish, pork, chicken, squid, bok choy… it was a good dish! We highly recommend it for crispy noodles lover.😋 Tea and a dish of peanuts was on the house 😁😁

The staff were friendly and nice. Never push for order and check. Credit cards were accept but no Apple Pay.

The atmosphere was very Chinese style. We recognized many of its guests speak GuangDongnese. So we guessed this restaurant must serve good HK style food. We will come again!😊😊“

“I have been going to this wonderful Korean restaurant for 18 years, and I have never been disappointed. The food is excellent, staff are friendly, and it is our go to place for comfort food. Totally love it 🤗🤗🤗“

“Hole in the wall Korean BBQ and ramen joint. Don't expect much for ambiance, just a walkup counter and take your food to go. There's no restroom available and no free water.The cheese ramen is a delicious surprise - creamy, with a smidge of spice. The sandwiches are a pile of meat on bread, no veggies and sides are extra. I got the King sandwich, which is a pile of pork rib meat and hot links on a simple white bread roll. It was very good, but I'd like to add kimchi next time for some variety.“

“The rose ddeok-bokki is pure decadence, an absolute dream if you love creamy dishes. If you add cheese on top, the cheese gets that blowtorched, charred flavor. I love the chew of the rice cakes. The cabbage adds pops of sweetness to the dish and although it is cooked, it has a satisfying crisp to it. The fish cakes rounds out the dish with its savoriness. I do feel like it could be better with fresh green onion on top though. Nevertheless, it keeps me coming back.“
