Korean Barbecue Restaurants near Livermore, CA

“We love the kimchi, bulgogi, and wings here. We haven't had something we didn't like :)

Service has always been friendly and helpful.

The room is a typical small restaurant set up -- a handful of tables that seat 2 and a couple that seat 4; clean and welcoming!

Parking: Parking is available in a typical strip mall parking lot. Spots may be difficult to find right in front of the store if it's a popular time / on weekends.“

“The food is good, honestly the price isn't bad at all. It includes appetizers, snacks, and all sorts of Korean soups. The different varieties of meat served here are nice and easy to chew. The only unfortunate and bad thing about this place is that they advertise ice cream as being included in the meal as the dessert, but they are often sold out. They aren't really sold out, but rather the kitchen just doesn't wanna open up another tub of it. The flavor varies and the fried bananas that are often advertised as being included with the ice cream is non-existent. If this restaurant can fix that problem, then 5 stars all across the board.“

“If you're searching for authentic Korean BBQ in the Bay Area, Seoul Jung in Dublin is an absolute hidden gem. From the moment we walked in, the experience was warm, welcoming, and deliciously memorable. The ambiance is cozy and relaxed perfect for a casual night out or a celebratory dinner with friends.

We ordered the beef brisket, bulgogi, and pork belly, and the quality of the meat blew us away. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully marinated. What really stood out was the tableside grilling experience fun, interactive, and full of that signature KBBQ aroma we all love. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, offering help with grilling and explaining each dish with a smile.

We also tried the hot pot, which came bubbling with a spicy gochujang broth, tender beef, and plenty of veggies—it was comforting, flavorful, and a perfect complement to the BBQ. The banchan (Korean side dishes) were generous, constantly refilled, and packed with flavor. From kimchi to pickled radish to japchae, each side dish added something special to the meal.

Portions were generous, prices fair for the quality, and the overall experience was one of the best I’ve had in a Korean BBQ restaurant outside of LA or Korea itself. Whether you’re a KBBQ regular or trying it for the first time, Seoul Jung is 100% worth the visit. Can’t wait to go back!“
