If you’re going alone be prepared to pay extra, I have no idea why. They have American Kobe which seems like an oxymoron but is still quite good. Overall a good experience but ended up paying more for a single patron than expected. Fountain drinks are also served in cans so no refills.

My wife and I went to SONU BBQ for my birthday yesterday. We have been there many times as it's the best AYCE Korean BBQ that we have been to. The food is always fresh and delicious. We always get the premium menu as there are selections that we like that are not on the regular menu. Our 2 servers yesterday were David and Nuyear, I hope I spelled her name correctly, they were extremely attentive to our needs, both courteous and friendly. But with that being said we have always had great service at SONU. If you do choose to try SONU, you will not regret it.
ENJOY!!

Sonu BBQ has quickly become one of my favorite Korean BBQ spots, and every visit reminds me why. The moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels upbeat and welcoming, with that perfect mix of sizzling grills, good music, and people enjoying their food. The staff is always attentive and fast, constantly checking in to make sure the grill is taken care of and that you have everything you need.
The meat quality at Sonu is genuinely impressive. Everything is fresh, well-marinated, and full of flavor. The brisket, bulgogi, and pork belly are always standouts, and they cook beautifully on the grill without drying out. Their banchan selection is also great — crisp, flavorful, and constantly refilled without you even having to ask. I love that the sides stay consistent: hot rice, fresh lettuce wraps, and all the pickled veggies you could want.
For the value, Sonu BBQ really delivers. The prices are fair, and the portions are generous, especially for all-you-can-eat. It’s one of those spots where you definitely get your money’s worth.
Whether you’re going with friends, family, or on a casual date, Sonu BBQ is always a reliable, delicious choice. Great food, great service, and a fun atmosphere — it never disappoints.

Food was just mediocre. I had a lot better, but the salad was a 10 best part of the meal. Service was top-notch.
