Honey Pig BBQ is a lively and fun Korean BBQ spot that never disappoints. Their signature tabletop grill setup is a feast for the eyes and the taste buds. I love how everything is cooked right in front of you, from the thinly sliced beef brisket to the generously seasoned kimchi and bean sprouts. The sizzling sound and aroma create an experience as much as a meal.

One highlight for me is their post-BBQ fried rice. The staff mixes leftover juices and ingredients from the grill into rice, resulting in a savory, crispy dish that’s worth saving room for. The side dishes are plentiful, fresh, and perfectly complement the main dishes.

The restaurant’s atmosphere is vibrant, though it can get a bit smoky and loud during peak hours, adding to the lively experience. Service is attentive, with staff regularly helping manage the grill and ensuring you’re enjoying your meal.

If you’re in the mood for a casual gathering with friends or family and want to enjoy authentic Korean BBQ with an interactive twist, Honey Pig BBQ is a solid choice.

I came here often with friends and family for years but my last visit, quality went down tremendously. The pork belly is not as thick, some pieces were only fat. Not sure what happened but it is not worth the price for this level of quality. I will not be back anymore

Love this spot! Awesome Korean bbq and food. Highly recommend the brisket and the fried rice at the end with all that’s left. Can’t wait till I get to go again.

HELLO

This place used to be one of my favorite Korean BBQ spots, but it's now too expensive. Don't get ripped off.

The food tastes yummy and has a lot. Perfect for a family of 4 when you order one order.
Meat is a small dish compared to the price. In overall, rice, meat, and kimchi, the lecture can make you full.

The servers are good, prepare our food.

Recommend trying once.

Parking: Alot of free parking .

The menu seems a little different from before, but it doesn't affect the taste. Their pork is always delicious, without any pig smell!
I like their barbecue service very much, but occasionally there are too many customers and I can't take care of them thoroughly.
Love their grilled kimchi and bean sprouts! When everyone saw that they were almost done eating, they would ask if they wanted to stir-fry the remaining kimchi bulgogi into fried rice. It was so delicious~ Or you could just take it away!

This is our go-to Kbbq place. Quality of all the food (even the side dish) is on point and the workers are very friendly. They really cared about our kids and bring out some seaweed and other non-spicy side dish!

Price is high, but there’s never a wait. It is not the best for celiacs and dairy allergies, but you can usually make it mostly work with most servers if you stay on your toes.Honestly though, if you *really* wanna make sure you aren’t exposed to an allergen, I would suggest doing something like going in earlier to scope out with a server all the ways it could go wrong and how those ways could be communicated and avoided. Maybe even forthrightly pay for the service so the server really thinks through how you could make sure all your servers (you don’t have an individual one) are hip to your allergens.

Vegetarian options: Oh god there really aren’t many. You’re gonna need to at least tolerate cross contamination.

Dietary restrictions: As mentioned you can kinda make it work, but it’s strenuous and relatively high risk as these things go.

Kid-friendliness: Honestly I think kbbq is pretty kid friendly in general unless the kids are animal loving vegetarians like I was.

Wheelchair accessibility: Pretty fine tbh

I really wish I could give this place 0 stars. There is poor communication and a horrible method of seating. The owner (bald guy with the glasses) was seating parties behind us and did not communicate at all. We were waiting 1 hr when we were told it would be a 30 min wait. Parties that arrived 10 min before would get seated before us. When we tried to speak with him, he would go out the back door and disappear for a long time. COMMUNICATE BETTER and have a FAIR way of seating customers!!! HORRIBLE SERVICE!

Pork is awesome here but beef is not satisfying.
