Korean Barbecue Restaurants near Irvine, CA

“Top tier Korean bbq restaurant where they cook everything for you and you just get to relax and enjoy. The meat quality is superb and the best option is the beef/pork combo. The side dishes are limited but easily made up for by the main dishes. The place gets very busy so it is best to make a reservation. The entire vibe is casual and all of the servers greet you when you walk in. Really great experience, service, vibe, and food. Best part is the ventilation above the grill is great and sucks up all the smoke effectively“

“Very good 🥩 steak. Will come here again ❤️“

“Honestly the best kbbq place in irvine. From quality of meat to the attentive and friendly staff, this spot is the restaurant to go for any occasion. The meat was so tender and fresh with the marinate being just right. Highly recommend to everyone!“

“Not your classic korean barbecue but even better. My wife and I love this place and it’s one of our usuals. Great selection of meet, great tasting kimchi that is fried on the pan and the kimchi fried rice at the end is something else! Highly recommended“

“The chicken mini bowl was delicious. Quality meat and not greasy. Also, try the sauce to bring more flavor to your meat. Service was good, easy to order and no hassles. The place is small, so dine-in wasnt an option for us, but plenty of outside seating since the restaurant is located in a food plaza.

Thanks for the experience.“

“I went to another KBBQ spot down the street and noticed it was not AYCE so I called this place and because we had a huge party, they had no problem setting up the table for us before we got there. I really appreciate the staff being so nice to us and having everything ready for us! 10/10 for the service. As for the food, side dishes are amazing and the kimchi was so fresh mmm! I loved the meat selections that they had to offer and the bangchan side dishes. I appreciate the atmosphere and the vibe too, I feel like more common kbbq spots have minimal lighting in the restaurant but this one was perfect!! I could see all my friends! Left with a full stomach! will definitely come here again!“

“Nice place to hang out with friends“

“Quality meat that’s not frozen. Good ventilation. Prompt service.“

“You know this place is good when you see all the ahjummas queued up LOL. Honestly some of the best bibimnaengmyeon I have had in the US. Also the banchan was insaneeeeely good and free refills. One thing though is that the meat was good but for the 3 person combo the portion size is pretty small. But I would definitely come back! Get here early so you don’t wait in line.“

From rich, flavor-packed beef intestine to premium chuck flap and galbi, you'll instantly understand why locals line up before they open.

If you love beef intestine, this is one spot you absolutely have to try.“

“This Korean bbq is pretty good. It's cheaper than the others n there isn't a salad bar but if the meats are good that's what's important to me. Bulgogi was good as was brisket. Attentive waiters to make sure you've got meat to grill without waiting“

“Skyleur us the best. He is an awesome waiter. He remembered who I was from months ago. He makes the experience that much better! Thanks Skyleur!“

“Delicious korean bbq with great service!! Although some of the staff aren’t the most talkative, they still got the job done and provided us with everything we needed. For this kbbq, the staff cooks the meat for you, so if you’re worried about cooking your own meat, there is no need to. There was a constant flow of customers as well, and the staff did a great job with keeping that flow efficient.“

“Just hit up the I Can Barbecue at Tustin Marketplace and it’s legit! Their $23.99 weekday lunch AYCE is an insane steal. The meat quality is top-tier (definitely get the beef tongue), and I love that you can order half portions. The robot servers are a fun touch. Massive space with a huge patio, perfect to grab food before shopping!“

“Excellent service and food“

“BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK FOR AYCE KBBQ! I visited during lunchtime on a weekday and was seated right away. Their prices caught my eye right away… $21.99 for lunch special!!

I loved their open meat and side dish bar where you can self-serve extra meats and rice as well! Stand out meats were definitely the beef tongue and beef belly!

The interior was spacious with lots of booth seatings available. The service was also very nice! Will definitely be back and highly recommend!“
