This Korean BBQ place is amazing! The meat is fresh, well-marinated, and very flavorful when grilled. The portions are generous, and the side dishes are tasty and complement the BBQ perfectly. The staff is attentive and friendly, always helping to change the grill or add charcoal. The restaurant is clean and has a lively atmosphere, making it a great spot for family gatherings or hanging out with friends. Definitely coming back again—highly recommended! 🔥🥩🍺

I absolutely love this place. The staff are all super quick and very friendly, the food is 100% fresh and very flavorful. The sauce bar is my favorite because of the sheer amount of options they give you. They have TVs all around that play fun kpop. They give you a nice tall pitcher of ice cold water as soon as you sit down. They offer you dessert after your meal which is always a plus. They have a wide alcohol menu. Overall, this is an awesome place if you want high value food, awesome service, and a really good atmosphere.

Incredibly delicious and great for first timers! 🩷
Pros:
- Fast, friendly service
- Large selection of meats, sauces, and sides
- Lowkey, casual atmosphere
Cons:
- Very loud (that is a disadvantage at most K-bbq places because of the fans over the grills)
- They automatically add gratuity, so no matter how you feel that’s what you’re paying. For a family of 6 we paid $244
We are visiting from Phoenix and originally were trying to go to Gaja across the street, but they had a wait for 1 hour. Since we really wanted to try Korean bbq while we were here we decided to go to KM.
As soon as we entered we were greeted and seated which was great because we were a party of 6. They quickly got utensils, plates, cups, and water out and started up the grills. There was a wide variety of sauces, meats, and side dishes. The meats were really good quality and the marinades (bulgogi, spicy, and teriyaki) were really good. They even had dessert! There were sesame balls, Chinese sugar donuts, and thrifty’s ice cream.
Our drinks were always filled and dirty plates were whisked away quickly. They even replaced our grill tops when they got too dirty!
I appreciated the lowkey atmosphere after a day at the beach. Gaja had more of a “you gotta dress up for this one” type of vibe which we definitely were not fitting 😅 We also loved the kpop music videos playing on the tvs! I wish we lived here so we could go to this location more 😭

Casual and affordable with good food. Nothing fancy and no atmosphere, but very clean. I go all the time for a quick bite.
I recommend 👌
I forgot to take photos because it was that good!
Went to eat at this place, walked in, stood there for 5 minutes and wasn’t greeted by anybody and there was a large crowd there, this place is probably good but definitely needs to hire somebody to be a host cause it was way too crowded to be that unorganized as a restaurant
This place is FIRE!!! Super chill atmosphere, good selection of meats, sides, and ice creams. Lots of marinated options for meats, and even cut up hot dogs for kids. Fun little game for a chance at a free voucher too! Psst, ask about Beer Night. 😏
I get Korean bbq atleast once a month. This is by far the best place I’ve been to south of Los Angeles. Great staff, tons of options, sauces, sides, soup. Definitely recommend over any similar restraunts in the area

This is hands down the best K BBQ I've ever had. There's so much variety, the service was great, the meat quality was amazing and the seasoned meats were so good. The donuts were fresh and fluffy, creamy ice cream. I can't say enough positive about this place. Go there!

Everything was great. Grabbing your own sides , protein, etc, is definitely new for me but interesting. The exhaust fans are loud so you'll be yelling. Overall great experience.

I liked the choice of meat and over-all presentation. However, the exhaust was TOO loud. We were a group of 6 adults and a 3yr old. They charged our kid 15 bucks when she didnt ate anything. She has her own food. Plus to our surprise, they charged $39 tip. When we asked they said its automatic 18% charge for large group. NEVER AGAIN.
Great food! Friendly staff and great service!
