Korean Barbecue Restaurants near La Canada Flintridge, CA

“Best meat, drinks and service! Honestly the best kbbq I've had, I make the trek over from DTLA just to eat here. The employees are extremely attentive and generous. They kindly refilled my favourite side dishes multiple times without hesitation. I wasn't sure which beer to get and they gave me the perfect recommendation. Despite the restaurant being full, the ambiance is still decently quiet and relaxing. I can't recommend this place enough!!!“

“After eating here for the first time, I told my brother (who I ate with) this is definitely the spot to bring the parents. A couple months later, we brought mom and dad. Enough said. Service and quality of food were really good. Highlights include marinated prime short rib, aged prime tenderloin, steamed egg, and Korean chimichurri sauce.“

“This place was awesome. First of all, Lena our waitress was so kind and willing to explain the menu to us as this was our first time. The food was delicious, I recommend getting a combo so you can try many different things. Not only was the food good but the experience was amazing as well. Lena cooked the meats on front of us (she cooked them perfectly) and you could add seasonings and sauces. Additionally, the sides are brought by ROBOTS. My little sister loved this and couldn't stop giggling every time a robot came by and dropped of some kimchi which was free with the combo. 10/10 would recommend. We will definitely be coming back soon! Thank you Lena!“

“Very delicious, very tasty. The beef is very tender, the octopus stone pot bibimbap is delicious and highly recommended, the service attitude in the store is very friendly, I highly recommend this place for gatherings with friends, and I will come again!“

“Wow! The best marinated pork ribs! Come on down to Jin Ju. It isn't an all you can eat spot, but you can't beat the quality. My friend and I decided to try the prime beef and the marinated pork ribs (which is their speciality). Both meats were very delicious. They pretty much cook your food for you. The beef was cut into nice cubes. They were cooked at a perfect medium rare. The prok ribs were also cut into pieces, as well. There was a good selection of 10 types of banchan: fishcake (eomuk bokkeum), sesame broccoli, kimchi, potato salad, cucumber kimchi (sigeumchi-namul), stir-fried glass noodles (japchae), korean spinach, pickled onions, bean sprouts (kongnamul), pancake (yachaejeon), and radish kimchi (kkakdugi) . And honestly, this spot has one of the better quality banchan sides. The japchae had so much flavor, and the potato salad was also good. I appreciated that they offered the pickled onions, which goes really well with the marinated pork. My friend was also excited that they had korean spinach, which most places don't have at all. We also ordered the red pepper paste soup. It was so good! Rick and full of flavor. There's enough seating for 2-6 people to each table. It's not too big of a spot, so if you're trying to get away from the long lined spots - this is the spot to be. Service is quick and friendly. There is free parking in the lot if you're lucky. If not, you can find free street parking.“

“Celebrated my bday last night and I was impressed. The place was super busy and they did a very good job in servicing everyone. The food was delicious. The scenery was good. Our waitress was attentive. I had a very good time. I enjoyed my experience greatly. I am happy to have celebrated my bday at quarters bbq“

“The best Korean BBQ I have ever had!!! Amazing food and service!“

“Came for lunch at 11:15 no wait, only one other party in the restaurant. Got the ahgassi combo and added an order of fatty beef intestine. Too much food - although it was just mom and me.Love the banchan. Love the kimchi. Mom loves the sweet potatoes. I also loved the leeks.Meat quality was bomb. Especially the intestines.Service was 5 stars. Especially Jin.“

“Loved the service and great food“

“AMAZING service!!! The meat was so fresh and delicious! We are visiting from Chicago and this impressed us so much!! Come for the food stay for the service!! Thank you so much SOH Grill house!“

“For the record, this place is not all you can eat. Price is definitely on the higher side of Korean BBQ. However, the food and the service you get are definitely worth the trip. The food is cooked by your server, and they will ask you how you want your meat cooked. The side dishes are delicious. My favorite is the sauce they give you for the BBQ. The only thing that may deter you from going to this restaurant is the long line during peak hours.“

“We booked a table for 7 people in advance. When we arrived everything was ready. All the food was fresh and delicious, especially the marinated beef. The waiters were always attentive, kind and helpful. I am grateful to all the staff for their excellent work. I hope you guys will always be as great as you are now. Thank you!?Parking: You can park along the street or drive into the restaurant and they will park your car for you.“

“Great lowkey spot for KBBQ, prices are great, staff is quick and attentive and all the mains, sides are delicious. I also love the music it was an amazing touch to raise the energy of the place. Only thing I didn't love was the pre paying before but it wasn't a huge deal just FYI. Will be returning though.“

“In Hollywood for the night and I searched TikTok for food nearby. MGD was the first place that popped up and it happed to be walking distance from where I am staying. Great service, great meat selection and one of the best appetizer sections I’ve seen at a KBBQ spot. Definitely would come back!“

“I really love the place today! My mom have been really wanting to come here for awhile so we finally took her here for mothers day and it was amazing!!! All the meats we got to try were perfect, which is great cause she has the worst luck with food but it went really well here! Servers kept checking up on us and refilling even did small talk with my mom in korean. Overall 10/10. Definitely would come back here!“

“Hello Chris Korean BBQ, I was there today with my cousin and their service was immaculate! All the staff there definitely works together as a team, reason being is because everyone was doing there part in partaking each tables like a team player. Not my first time but was my cousins first time eating there and he enjoyed being there for his first time. Thank you Belle for being our sever and Laura, Luis, Andrew, and Edgar for making this Saturday rainy day a great experience.“

“first time visit and we'll be coming back the food was great and the service was better very friendly and cordial.“

“Me and my partner live close by so we decided to stop by on a Wednesday night. It was pretty empty, only 2-3 other groups. The restaurant felt a lot more homey compared to other KBBQ. It felt like a lowkey spot where close friends can get together and reminisce on fond memories together. We liked it a lot. We really enjoyed the side dishes - especially the salad and the cooked meat. We ordered the AYCE Set A. Price was very reasonable. Definitely not the best we've had but still good. I love steamed egg so I had to order and had no regrets. Service was good too. I will mention the smoke is a bit more on the heavy side which we didn't love as it starts to smell burnt.“

“It is soooo hard to find Samgyeopsal in ktown the way it's typically served in Korea. But this place feels so authentic and it's the only place I recommend my friends to go eat kbbq. I especially loved the pajeon that was served in the beginning and that seaweed was a side dish (again super hard to find in ktown). This place is delicious!“

“Specializing in Korean lunch boxes, raw fish rice bowl, bean noodles, rice cake dumpling soup, squid somen, etc. A popular place for lunch and catering for office workers in nearby offices. Overall, it is delicious and the portions are good.Hwaedupbap (sushi rice) - personally it’s best menu (huge portion) diced raw sushi (salmon & tuna) with gochujang topping on the rice,overall very delicious and large portion food for the whole family to share.Also if you like spicy Korean mixed bibim noodle like Jjolmyun, I recommend trying Ojingo Somyun the spicy squid noodle, very delicious ?Seems like a lot of people have menus for take out / to-go / delivery from Koreatown & the offices nearby (talked to the very kind sajangnim owner lady, very confident of her menu - using fresh ingredients & the taste)Highly recommended this place for office workers who work nearby. (For delivery & take out)Vegetarian options: They got konggooksoo (Korean cold bean noodle), quenching dish on hot summer days“

“Awesome experience! Davey, our server was great, friendly and attentive! He was always nearby and whatever we needed, he was there to help with a smile. I have gluten, dairy n egg allergies, super hard to eat out especially at Asian restaurants. Davey patiently listened to me and asked the kitchen what i could eat! I am so grateful for his attentiveness! The food was great but i will go back just for the service!“

“I think this is the best dakgalbi restaurant in K-Town! It's good because it's not too sweet and not too salty!! I recommend adding cheese!! The amount of vegetables is plentiful and be sure to eat the fried rice at the end :) I come here often and I ordered chicken feet once, but the boneless chicken feet ㅜㅜ I'm sorry, but it wasn't very good... It's oily and spicy ㅠㅜ“

“It was the best Korean barbecue experience. Everything was perfect, especially the grilled beef tongue melted in my mouth. The servers were very friendly and the service was very good. The interior is so clean and modern that it makes you want to come back anytime.“

“Great dining experience! We loved the food and service.“

“A pretty solid ayce Korean bbq place with quality meat and side dishes. Everything was flavorful and delicious! I have not seen an ayce place that does the scallion pancake as a side dish, so seeing this here for the first time is definitely different. Service was pretty quick and the inside is also nice!“
