“The best AYCE Korean bbq restaurant. Meat quality is top-notch. They grill the meat for you but still allow you to enjoy the food at your own speed. I tried almost every meat and my favorite is the marinated beef rib with bone. It melted in my mouth. I love it and will come back.👍🏻“

“My husband and I found this gem on one of our K town adventures. The food is phenonmenal, the staff was out standing they cook the meat right in the table for you. My husband who is not a big steak eater absoultly loved it. We have told several friends and we are definitely coming back.“

“Such a pleasant place with excellent customer service and delicious food. I visited for the first time because I was craving barbecue, and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. I recommended it to all my friends and family. If you're nearby Glendale, it's absolutely my favorite spot right now. If I could, I'd give it 1000 stars. I enjoy every bite of their food.“

“First time here my family like it especially unlimited brisket“

“amazing food and good for family“

“I’ve been to Kaif several times, and it’s always a great experience! The hookahs are amazing and full of flavor, the food is delicious, and the staff is always friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is great, and everything is consistently on point. Definitely one of my favorite spots — highly recommend!“

“There's nothing I can say bad about this place I wish I could give the atmosphere a five star but I also love the fact that it's super casual and more relaxed. As far as the food I would drive from Beverly Hills just to get their bowls. It deserves a five-star. Everything went incredibly smooth and the staff were incredibly professional. I could go on and on about the quality of the food but I haven't had every dish. The one dish I had the bulgogi with rice was done to perfection. The rice was correctly made as can be. And the flavor from the bulgogi was not overly sweet and left a great aftertaste. Couldn't recommend it enough. If you're ever in the neighborhood pick some up you'll be happy you did.“

“Was visiting LA, stopped by Soowon Galbi for KBBQ dinner per friend’s recommendation and it was delicious! Had to be on waitlist but was so worth the wait! Good quality meat, generous side dishes, and quick and fast service! Clean restaurant!“

“First time here and me and my husband loved it! We tried the beef and chicken teriyaki plate and a chicken and beef fried rice. Both were very good. I also loved that the music that was playing at the time was like a Justin Bieber Pandora radio station lol“

“This location is absolutely one of the best all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ restaurants I’ve been to! The meat was high-quality and tender, and the sides bar had a huge variety of Korean dishes, making it feel almost like a buffet. The staff were very kind and the service was excellent. Definitely one of my favorite Korean BBQ spots!“

“Everything about this place is good....... Dogs are not welcome.,service animals too....
They said no dogs at 1st,then I stated she is service animal.

Then he grilled me on type of service she provides, we answered his demands,but still didn't want us to have the service animal.
We finally got to eat. But after about 30 minutes of waiting, then they stuck us in the back corner, but he clearly did not want the dog in the building.

So bring your service animals here. But be prepared for a verbal confrontation and questioning.“

“The OG. the tastiest. the smokiest. the best. don't wear your favorite new sweater. ladies tie your hair back. and get down.“

“Nice place very good to eat“

“We were greeted at the door, and given complimentary miso soup with our order. We got six different Yubu (buy five get one free). They were FANTASTIC. The torched salmon was a little overcooked, so it was a little fishy, but overall they were very good. Bulgogi and King Yubu were overall favorites.“

“One of the BEST BBQ'S in Los Angeles!“

“My first time and very satisfied. I ordered pork soup with rice and it is soooooo good!“

“Hands down one of my favorite Korean restaurants for years. The food just tastes amazing. Well known amongst Koreans for a reason. I always get the bulgogi and dongchimi noodles. The dongchimi noodles are a must when coming here, it’s what it’s best known for. Paired with their bulgogi, the experience just gets better. I’m not one who likes sweet, soy based marinated meats, but this place does it so well. Their marinade is not too strong or sweet, the meat is soft. Dip it into their nutty and savory sesame oil? Game over. The combination is just amazing. Please try these two together! Highly recommend. Yes, the bulgogi is a bit pricey, but it hits and the meat is so soft.“

“What a hidden treasure in WLA! The restaurant is a combination of delicious food, a wonderful staff and a fantastic owner!!!! The wings (and many other choices) are delicious and made with loving care. The food makes me smile!!!!!!“

“The vibe is amazing. High energy for sure. Great place to come and have a conversation or be loud with your friends. The meat quality is amazing. Everything is fresh never Frozen. The kimchi the sauce, the soup, the salad, the meat, literally everything is just top tier. The prices are so freaking good, it's priced like the super cheap quality places but it's literally just so damn good.

Good hours, good quality, Good vibe, five out of five, only thing that sucks is parking LOL“

“An incredible Korean BBQ restaurant with exceptional food and even better hospitality. The service makes you feel as though you’re dining in someone’s home, with genuine warmth and attention to detail. The meal comes with nearly 18 different banchan, each one fresh and delicious. Every part of the experience was outstanding—I highly recommend it.“

“Amazing food, so worth the price as well! The 대창 is so delicious!! I have twin babies and the restaurant was very accommodating to my family & I with our stroller. We really appreciated it since we previously came from a way more spacious outdoor restaurant that gave us horrible service due to us having babies with us. So we left and decided to come to Yangmani instead to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Will be back for the amazing food and wonderful welcoming service from the staff! Thank you!“

“Didn't know they had more than one restaurant in the L.A. area. This is the second one we tried and it didn't disappoint, it was just as good as the first time and second times we visited the Koreatown location. The service, the food, everything is great.“

“OMG I can't begin to express how delicious this is!!! I was craving small intestines (haven't had it in years) so I did a quick Yelp search and chose this place. I ordered the Spicy Small Intestine, Beef and Tripe Hotpot and it was 🔥🔥🔥!!! All of the banchan was so good as well. I can't wait to come back!“

“I knew I liked Thai food but not THIS much! Food here is fantastic, portions are generous and service is quick. My favorite was definitely the northern Thai egg noodle. The flavors are fantastic and left me wanting more. I’ll have to come back to try other dishes. Definitely recommend!“

“Amazing seafood bbq. The prix fixe set comes with a lot of extras. We ordered the Master Set for 5 of us. We also ordered sea eel and live octopus separately. There’s good parking behind the restaurant. Front of restaurant was a lot of homeless people unfortunately.“

“This place is absolutely amazing I came with my mom and her friend they are a bit on the older side. Jenny made sure to give us a table with good airflow and ac. She was always attentive. Brought us everything we were about to ask for before we even needed to ask. Changed out the grill set up the meat. She took her time to cut meet right off the bone it took a while. I told her it’s ok this is a lot of work. She said this is the best part and it’s completely fine. She was absolutely right. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.“

“waitresses went out there way to make sure you were 100 percent satisfied..“

“Amazing food the owner is so sweet definitely will return“

“I found my new favorite restaurant in Los Angeles. PZK BBQ on Beverly Blvd in the Fairfax neighborhood is it.

My daughter took me there for Father's Day, 2026. My go-to order at Korean restaurants is galbi, marinated beef short ribs. At PZK BBQ you can get all you can eat at a reasonable price. It's delicious. Service is quick because you grill it at your table. It's delicious.

The typical Korean side dishes, also all you can eat, are also delicious.

Our server was pleasant and efficient. The ambiance is pleasant. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. The way the restaurant is set up, I couldn't see any way for a party of more than six could eat together. We were a party of five, my daughter, her family, and me, so we were fine.

There's a valet parking station out front, or there's street parking. The restaurant is kid friendly as long as your kids like Korean food.“

“The Food:
​The Order: We ordered the Type C combo for 4 people and added an extra order of sauced galmaegi (pork skirt meat) along with two noodle dishes.
​The Taste: Everything tasted really good, and their banchan (side dishes) were excellent as well, rounding out the meal perfectly.
​The Vibe & Service:
​Atmosphere: This is a really nice place to go for a group dinner.
​Wait Time & Staff: We walked right in with no need for an appointment/reservation. While the dining market feels a little slow right now, Sookdal is still putting out very good quality food and has a highly attentive staff.
​Logistics:
​Parking: Be prepared for valet parking only, which runs about $6.
​Verdict:
A reliable, high-quality Korean BBQ spot with great service that makes group dining incredibly easy.“

“Whether you visit with family, friends or colleagues, this restaurant is proud to provide you with an outstanding dining experience.“

“We loved everything about this place! We sat outside and were seated quickly on a Saturday with no reservations, we did get there right when they opened. Service was exceptional, staff was awesome and we will be visiting again!!“

“Best BBQ EVER
I’ve gone to other places and always end going back to this place. It’s insane how comfortable they make me feel almost like if I was part of there family music environment and delicious food and. Affordable as well“

“I had the beef rib. I pulled the bone out myself… no muscles needed just pull and eat the goodness. Hubby had the brisket. We both were full and happy with leftovers 😋😋😋👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤️❤️❤️“

“Great stop. Rich is the best.“
