“Despite accidentally making reservations online for the following evening, the gentleman behind the entry table found a way for my family of 4 to enjoy a top notch Korean BBQ dinner. We were so grateful! The food was excellent and service first rate. Highly recommended!!“

“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.“

“Delicious all you can eat Korean barbecue!! Will be back!“

“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.👍🏻“

“Good service and experience for Korean BBQ.specially the rice paper loved by many diner.“

“Whenever we visit Los Angeles a night at Origin is a must! The atmosphere is fun, the staff is friendly and fast, and the food is to die for!“

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

“OK, there are a lot of Korean barbecue place with all different price point and meat quality.
This place, definitely deserve a five star because
First, their price point is good, we order a combo for six people ($200) and we were really full, the combo came with the steam egg and soup that’s a great value. The meat is not exceptional but I think it’s great for the price.

Second, they have their own private parking, how awesome is that?, I hate looking for parking in LA or some places force you to do valet parking!

Third, they cook for you , the services post office how may I help you? Hello oh hello Terrence yeah what happened? Oh yeah yeah yeah sure OK got it. OK no worries. Bye were great. The waiter was very polite.“

“The best korean bbq i ever tasted“

“amazing food and good for family“

“I stopped for lunch Monday 22nd 2026 around 11:30 am, my plan was to order cold noodle(냉면) but changed plan after checking the menu,beef short rib soup (갈비탕) was only $17
I was by myself, I was seated big table for 4 people, 6 side dishes were served with cold water(I eas asked if I want cold or hot water)I said cold and they served cold water and 6 side dishes, I accidebtally droppes the cup with ice water, made a mess on table, server asked me if I am ok and cleaned the table also refilled ice water, had enough beef short ribs and all the side dishes were delicious“

“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.“

“The food and service were amazing. The meats and options they have here are very unique and delicious, up to 32 different options. The person who gave us our meat was nice and caring. As some side notes, if this is your first time going to Korean BBQ place, you cook your own food so make sure you know how to cook meats, also the music they played here is pretty good!“

“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.“

“The food and service is amazing! I love the different types of combos they have and also the gopchang is so good (get both the large and small intesines)!!!! They give you a bunch of banchan and some extra stuff like kimchi pancake! Ask for Sean, he is so friendly and helpful!
I would recommend 10/10!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!!“

“The food is always on point, and the staff are consistently attentive and accommodating. They're always on top of cooking the meat, making the experience enjoyable. The side dishes are also fresh, delicious, and plentiful.
Great service and consistently great food every visit!“

“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!“

“Great food, service and atmosphere“

“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“

“Very cool place! The price is great, the food is amazing, and the service is excellent. The only downside is the long wait on weekends — we waited about 40 minutes for our table. Still, it was definitely worth it. Highly recommend!“

“Great ayce kbbq good priced options services are off the charts… And very friendly. Thank you roadtoseoul“

“Best Service with delicious foods“

“I’ve tried their food several times and every dish so far has been really good, fresh and yummy!🤩 the service is good, there’s side dishes and prices are amazing for the portions you get. My sister and I love this place and come often. It’s definitely a hidden gem!!!🍜 10/10“

“I are here several times at the bar. Cooked on the open fire and had a few great conversations“

“I’ve been to a lot of Korean BBQ spots in Los Angeles, and Brothers BBQ in Koreatown consistently stands out because of the service.

Joon took care of our table and absolutely crushed it. He was attentive without being overbearing, kept the grill perfectly managed, made great recommendations, and made sure everything came out quickly and exactly as ordered. You can tell he genuinely cares about the customer experience and takes pride in his work.

The food was excellent as always—high-quality meats, great banchan, and a fun atmosphere—but what really made the night memorable was Joon’s hospitality. Service like his is rare these days and is a big reason we’ll keep coming back.

If you’re lucky enough to have Joon helping your table, you’re in great hands. Brothers BBQ is fortunate to have him, and he definitely deserves recognition for the outstanding job he does.

This version reads like a genuine customer review and specifically supports a promotion by emphasizing leadership, professionalism, and customer experience.“

“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“

“Rica comida y buen servicio“

“I'm so glad they have location here, It closed to me. Love this food. Good meat quality and good service. Staff is very nice and helpful.“

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

“Good food, great service. What more can you ask for?

We made reservations online via Yelp and a day before our reservations (a little under 24 hours), I received a text message to confirm them. All you have to do is hit 1 and reply to the text or go to the link provided and it'll take you to the app to confirm. Super convenient!

Our other party arrived minutes before we did as we were stuck in traffic and the staff immediately said the table was ready. My family opted to wait for us and we arrived shortly after noon.

Once we all together, we were immediately seated and was pleasantly greeted by our lovely server. She was amazing and super attentive! She provided recommendations and we placed our orders immediately. Both tables chose the $39.99 all you can eat option.

Tables were both set up with starters that included a house salad, macaroni salad and kimchi. Table settings included plates, plastic cups for water, utensils, napkins and sauces.

We all started with the Boneless LA Galbi, LA Galbi and PRIME Boneless Short Rib. Meat was tender and delicious and the dipping sauces were great. We also ordered sides of the following (with the first being the best in our opinion):
- Cup Ramen Fried Rice
- Korean Fried Chicken Bites
- Corn Cheese
- Loaded Tots (Cheetos)
- Gyoza (Beef & Vegetable)
- Steamed Egg

Everything was piping hot and made to order for the sides. I highly recommend making reservations as lines were starting to form about 30 minutes after we arrived. Parking can be a little difficult if you're street parking but there are plenty of spaces available all on Spring St.

We are definitely coming back! Thanks, DTLA AYCE KBBQ!“

“I had a great lunch with my family“

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

“The food was good and the server was friendly.“

“Wow, I think the ribs here are the best compared to Suwon Galbi. It's delicious. I ordered two people, but it's such a shame that I got half a portion. There are a lot of strange people in the reviews. It must be difficult to do business. It says lettuce on the menu, but they ask for it as a service. Anyway, one man and one woman each ordered ribs, and it was half a portion. Yes, there are a lot of sheep.“

“I have been coming to this restaurant for over ten years now! Let me tell you something man.. the quality has remained on top all these years. The side dishes you get here are always amazing too like their potato pancake and steamed egg to go with your thin sliced meats. The salad they serve you here is also very traditional and true to its taste.
If you’re in koreatown and don’t wanna go to the most popular ones on yelp come here you won’t regret it!
This place is good for any occasion a meet up with friends, family or even a date.“

“Fire. Literally fire. I recommend it 11am opening is a great time to stop in“

“The service is what makes this place top notch (on top of the food of course)! Every single employee we interacted with were professional, attentive, and quick. I came here visiting from Washington State, and my nephew recommended this place along with others. I'm glad we ended up here! I even brought my parents who aren't as adventurous with foods and they also liked it! We got the premium TGI Ayce and it did not disappoint - the variety of proteins and sides for this selection was delicious! I would definitely come here again when I'm in town!“

“Highly recommend Chuncheon Dakgalbi! Everything was absolutely delicious. The side dishes were flavorful, and I really appreciated that the dakgalbi was mostly cooked in the kitchen and came out almost ready to eat. The chicken pieces were the perfect bite size - not too big and not too small.

Their fried wings were also really good, honestly better than the average fried chicken franchise. The noodle dish wasn’t quite my style because the noodle itself had a flavor that was unfamiliar to me, but the sauce was still delicious.

I especially want to highlight how amazing the service was. The server was incredibly attentive - I didn’t have to ask for anything because they were actively checking on every table. It was the best restaurant service I’ve experienced in LA.

Highly, highly recommend. I was completely satisfied with everything.“

“This place is incredible! If you want a good introduction to good Korean BBQ, this is the place! They will cook the food for you and give you great recommendations! Thanks Paul and the rest of the team for all the great food recommendations!“

“Nice interior and great meat, food, and AYCE deals, but I'm begging you to not use plastic utensils and paper cups. It looks so damn cheap, especially considering the amazing range of KBBQ you can get in Koreatown. You won't be able to compete if you cheapen out like that. Also, please label your buffet station. I got a lot of salad dressing thinking it was Kbbq sauce.“

“My sister and I decided to give this place a try, and we were both very impressed. The combination of Korean BBQ and sushi is excellent, and everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared.

What stood out the most was the quality of both the meat and the sushi. The all-you-can-eat option offers great value for the price, and the staff was friendly and attentive throughout our visit, making the experience even better.

We’ll definitely be coming back. If you’re looking for a place with delicious Korean BBQ and sushi at a reasonable price, I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Good for the price . Good for birthday parties“

“the price has definitely gone up, but the food is good. The meats are marinated well.. this is my second time here and really enjoyed the food but the issue I have with the places the floor is so slippery, so that is pretty concerning. that's all I need is to slip and fly into somebody“
