“Best bbq I’ve ever had, nicest family serving 💚💥“

“This place deserves to be on every foodie’s checklist. A must-eat in Redondo Beach!“

“I was craving Mongolian food and decided to stop by Red Grill since I was in the area. As a first-timer, the staff was very friendly and guided me through the process, which I really appreciated. The food was good, though not the best I’ve had.“

“I’ve haven’t been to L&L Hawaiian BBQ in a long time because I’ve been quarantined in my house in Hermosa Beach due to the COVID-19 Virus. My friend😎JakeBok and I are definitely looking forward to some Hawaiian dining“

“My first time to dine here. Enjoyed the food n I got just enough for me to eat.Food was really good.“

“Bought the 2 meat combo....brisket and BBQ chicken with a side of mashed potatoes and a side of BBQ beans..and a half rack of baby back ribs side salad and corn bread...food was on point...loved the chicken and ribs over the brisket..mashed potatoes were tasty no gravy available but not necessarily a bad thing...the beans have hint of spiciness that slightly kicks in...dipped a piece of the buttery corn bread into the beans and oh man that hint the spot..paid $63-$67 bucks..it was a lot of food..good deal easily would feed 3 people..food over all was good ...parking in the back...nice clean location...service was super good I initially tipped at the register dropping a few bucks into a plastic container but I left a second tip at the table cause the young man working there was super attentive and genuinely a good person even offered the availability of the restroom and brought out a box as he observed that we had three ribs left over...honesty food was crazy good ...im a big fan of Harris Ranch off the 5 freeway up in the central valley ..but im from los angeles and out at the beach in the el segundo area several times a week...definitely will stop by again“

“Food and service was amazing. Atmosphere rating doesn’t mean much as it’s a takeout spot. The fried cornbread balls were crispy and soft on inside. Brisket was tender and juicy. Loved the beans and potato salad. Drove up from San Diego and took a gamble on this spot and it was well worth it. No pics to add as we tore into it immediately. Also, for $40 it was a great deal.“

“muy bueno, lo recomiendo al 100, comida koreana.“

“Really good, healthy food. When we went there, she made the sesame bread while we waited. And it was delicious. My beautiful wife and I have been going here for more than 20 years. And I've never had a bad meal here.“

“I haven’t been to Wood Ranch in years and it still doesn’t disappoint. The Manhattan Beach location was amazing. Walking in and sitting at the bar while waiting for our table was perfect. The setting is what you make of it, it could be a romantic setting or just something very casual. As for the food, oh man… The fresh soft rolls, the perfectly grilled meat… it was just all perfect. I would“

“Great FOOD! Glad to have you so close once again! 🥰“

“Amazing customer service!
We ordered all you can eat and everything was really delicious.
They even have offer a vegetarian all you can eat for a special price. We thought it was really considerate.
Plenty of side dishes as well.“

“I’m visiting a new area and I took a chance and ordered from DoorDash. I ordered a half a rack of ribs and even though they came very odd looking there was an extremely healthy portion. (There were not a lot of rib bones, but a lot of the bottom portion of the spare ribs, but I did not mind because it was a generous serving) The barbecue sauce was outstanding and all of the side dishes were delicious. They were running a two for one on some of the sides so I got a ton of food.“

“I've been in Los Angeles California for over 40 years. This one of the far most the most delicious soulfood i have had in years. Gave me a Lil taste of home. I'm sure other dishes are as delicious .“

“very nice foods all are fresh especially the kimchi“

“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 😋😋😋👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤️❤️❤️“

“If you’re craving authentic Korean BBQ in the South Bay — especially Korean-style grilled beef intestines (gopchang) — this is the place to go.

One thing that really stands out to me is how clean and well-prepared the gopchang is. Korean-style gopchang is known for its thorough cleaning and careful preparation, and I truly felt a sense of safety and quality here. That attention to detail makes a big difference.

All of the side dishes were excellent as well — everything was fresh, flavorful, and well-balanced.

I’d definitely love to come back here often with friends!“

“Ko Ryo Jung is an excellent Korean BBQ spot with truly authentic flavors. The quality of the meat is great—fresh, juicy, and well-seasoned. The banchan (side dishes) are plentiful and delicious, and they’re refilled generously.

The service is friendly and attentive, and the staff helps with grilling and explains the best way to enjoy the food. The restaurant is clean with a comfortable, authentic Korean atmosphere.

Definitely a place I’ll come back to. Highly recommended!“

“Great BBQ food. Chicken, sausage, ribs, sides are good too. Bbq bean I like them. Potato was perfect. Mac cheese I'm not big on it but it was good too. Bbq sauce was a bit on the sour side for me. I like a sweeter taste. Over all my order was worth the price.💯👍 For sure to come again.“

“It was delicious ?? The place was quiet and a bit intimidating but if you check out their website and look over their menu I don't believe you'll be disappointed. The food is a good size portion for the price. I ordered the chicken with tonkatsu. I was hungry and this hit the spot. I think they'd do well if it was a drive thru.“

“I took the risk yesterday and went to pop-up BBQ joint APL. They were working out of a restaurant in Marina Del Rey, so I thought reluctantly to give them a shot. I knew they were expensive and likely not the “traditional” BBQ quality that I grew up with in L.A. I’d seen on social media that APL Barbecue almost always sold out, so I arrived 2 hours early. No one was in sight. I thought I’d gone to the wrong location. I looked around and saw 5 large pallets of fire wood stacked up in the rear of the building. Had to be for the smokers I thought. This must be the right place. I was just super early. About 30 minutes later I noticed 4 pillars of smoke coming up from behind the hedges in the patio area. I failed to look there before and walked over to find 4 large BBQ smokers at work. They were being attended by an African American gentleman. He seemed to know what he was doing. I started feeling a bit better on the potential quality of APL’s BBQ upon seeing this brutha handling the cooking. This was my opportunity to maybe find out the truth about APL’s suitability to my discerning taste buds. I walked over to him and said, “Bruh, lemme holla at you a minute. I’m new to APL and want to get your read on the BBQ. You know that there’s a difference between what some people call good BBQ, and what you or me might consider good Q.” He gave me a wry smile and a knowing nod. I knew he understood what I was cryptically saying. He asked about my regional knowledge of BBQ, from which I explained my preferences for North Carolina, and Texas styles of Q. He said it was more like Texan BBQ, which happens to be my favorite. He said that APL was the “real deal”. I was feeling good and hungry now. They opened the doors at 12:30 pm. A kid started passing out cornbread samples. I happily took one. I’m as critical of the sides as I am with my Q. Cornbread is rarely great and mostly just ok of from most BBQ joints. I took a bite. It was moist and very good with a honey taste but not too sweet. Kind of a cornbread-cake combo. Another very good sign! When I got to the front of the order line, the Bruh offered me a sample of the pork ribs. I took a bite. It was spot on. Had a nice light tug but was very tender and easy to pull off the bone. I couldn’t ID the flavor profile, but liked it a lot. I ended up buying 1 beef rib bone, 1 rack of pork ribs, and some cornbread for a total cost of $150. More than enough for 2 people for a couple of days or so. The beef rib was the best I’d ever had. Tasted more like a very good brisket. The pickle relish was outstanding. I wish I could buy it in a store or better yet get the recipe. Needless to say as a BBQ skeptic and traditionalist, that APL is real and highly recommended even with their high prices. I’m told they will be back in MDR at the same spot next weekend. It’s located Washington Bl. & Abbot Kinney. Go on Sunday when they will also sell smoked cowboy ribeye steaks. I’m told the rack of lamb is also outstanding. Before I walked away with my heavy bag of Q, I saw the the brutha I’d spoken to earlier chopping up some meat. It was loud and crowded in the restaurant. I spoke loudly in a manner I knew would get his attention and said, “Bruh! You were right. Thanks!” He smiled and responded back with the “brutha nod”.“

“The service was great & the food was soooooo good! I highly recommend the place for anybody to go eat here!“

“The only game in town. Other BBQ places could not shine Woody's shoes.“

“excelente servicio muy bien todo“

“My date and I had dinner at Wagyu Butcher, and it was a wonderful experience for us both. We were seated almost immediately upon arrival, and the staff welcomed us with exceptional hospitality. Once we were seated, the atmosphere truly made me feel as if I were in Japan.
Both my date and I chose the Butcher’s Omakase course, the appetizers and every cut of meat was absolutely delicious. What really stood out to us was watching the staff cut the meats right in front of us, which made us truly appreciate the freshness and quality. We both upgraded the curry rice to the A5 wagyu sushi, which was incredible.
For drinks, we enjoyed plum wine, a Shochu Calpico cocktail, and Sapporo beer. To finish the meal, we ordered the green tea tiramisu, green tea pudding with honey, and the milk tea pudding all of which were delicious. The complimentary tea they provided to aid digestion was a very thoughtful touch.
The staff were all wonderful, and we even had a few conversations about Japan while dining. We will definitely be coming back soon.“

“So far I have tried the spicy Korean fried chicken bowl, pork belly bowl and japchae, all of delicious. Always fresh. My toddler only likes japchae from an AYCE kbbq in Garden Grove, but she has approved of yours. 10/10 every time. I am always greeted with a smile. I will keep coming back.“

“Boss sauce hit the spot, my (almost) 2 year old tore it up! Love jimmy browns!“

“At first didn't think much about the place due to the store front and name bbq chicken, figure it was just a regular chicken spot but I was in a mood for wings. While viewing the menu I was intrigued by the flavors offered. Once entering location it's was refreshing to smell and see the cleanliness and aroma of something that immediately caught my attention which had me anticipating greatness.. and thats not all, the service was to the Capital T. The gentleman at the register answer all my questions with plenty of recommendations based on my taste. I was more then pleased and I didn't even order yet. Once I ordered I couldn't wait for my honey garlic wings with a side of pickled radishes. After my order was completed I was handed a buzzer to inform me when my order was ready. Now I waited in the car not sure if there was seating in the back cause I didn't ask nor venture I just wanted to head to the car and express my opinion to my spouse.. no more than 10 -15 mins later give or take food was ready. Now let me tell you i very impressed by the smell. Plus the container was perfect fully closed with air pockets so the 🐔 could breath. Now this always makes a difference no matter how the food smell. Maintaining that crispyness I look for.. now let me get to this chicken. Boy/ Girl let me tell you, chicken sooooo good make you wanna slap your momma. Flavor 10, texture 10, plus the service 10, this a perfect game for me. Triple doubles. me and wifey was licking each other finger fighting for the last drip. Been a while since I had something this good in Cali. And I'm a new York wing head.. with this said I'll be back so I hope to see all y'all in there tomorrow, cause I'm definitely coming back, so lock me in for a lifetime membership. Was great to meet y'all at Bbq chicken in lomita“

“found out this was basically right across the street from our house so my dad and i just went there today for dinner…..food was amazing, definitely will go again“

“We had not been to Mongol King since last year. Tonight 4 of us had dinner there. Everything was fresh and clean. The food was great and service was excellent. It’s a fun experience choose the ingredients and take it over to the cooks at the big wok. They cook it and serve it back to you on a plate. At the table there is rice and these puffy bread rolls. Very good. To finish off the meal they have jello, brownies and vanilla ice cream. This is one of our favorite spots in the South Bay. Go there you won’t be disappointed and you will not leave hungry.“

“it's an awesome place to eat and chill with friends“

“Fricken Awesome... At Food Journal Magazine we think every chef should try and incorporate at least one of these product`s in their menu. I have never heard of buffalo chicken egg rolls...mind blowing! Matthew Gregory Editor In Chief Food Journal Magazine“

“Great Bbq! Great service!“

“So delicious and savory!!“

“a LOT of food for the price. great customer service.“

“Honu Poke & Grill truly delivers on all fronts! We ventured outside the usual South Bay bubble—a 20-minute drive that was absolutely worth every minute. We indulged in the fantastic barbecue ribs, which were perfectly fall-off-the-bone tender. Paired with their incredible poke and generous portions of teriyaki chicken and rice, plus a side of mac salad, we left completely satisfied and already planning our next trip!“

“We met up with some friends when visiting Marina Del Rey and enjoyed a premium experience. They cooked up everything right in front of us, switching out the grill plates between meats and keeping things fresh.

Our group of 4 shared:

🥩 Set A - brisket, boneless shortrib, signature bulgogi

🍗 Namoo House Chicken

🥟 Dumplings

The set was for 2 people, but it comes with sides like salad, corn cheese, veggie pancake and typical bonchon. They even make ramen at the end, so coupled with the chicken and dumplings we ordered, this was more than enough food.

Excellent service, gorgeous clean interiors, generous portions and perfectly seasoned meats - this spot ticks all the boxes 😋“

“Sakura House – Sizzling Skewers of Kushiyaki\n\nSakura House has become our favorite restaurant in the Los Angeles area. Having traveled to Japan many times, I can say with confidence — this place is the real deal.\n\nThe kushiyaki here is outstanding — perfectly skewered and grilled to perfection over special imported Japanese charcoal, which gives every bite an authentic smoky flavor. In addition to the skewers, their bacon-wrapped creations are a must-try! From asparagus, okra, and string beans to tomatoes, enoki mushrooms, and jalapeño peppers — each one is packed with flavor and cooked just right.\n\nWe also loved the fresh edamame, Yoshi’s Owari Chicken, and the incredibly tasty black pepper chicken wings. Everything was expertly prepared, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious.\n\nIf you’re looking for an authentic taste of Japan in LA, Sakura House is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“This was my first experience at this establishment. First, I am satisfied with the welcoming atmosphere set by the representatives. Second, the wait time for the food was short. Finally, the food was A1. In particular, I got the teriyaki BBQ chicken and dumplings. Overall, I am satisfied with my experience.“

“Still great after all these years A nice variety of meat selections and super tasty.“

“This is by far the best all you can eat AYCE Kbbq restaurant in Torrance. The staff were incredibly attentive and A++ for the cleanliness of the restaurant. 😊 I really like that most of the common cookable meats are out on the salad bar as well as vegetables, appetizers, all the sauces, fruits 🤤 all readily available to everyone - so you can easily get more. 😉 I highly recommend trying the beef belly, beef rib finger and marinated short ribs each cut was tender and flavorful. The cheesecorn, shrimp tempura, tofu soup and baked mussels were delicious side options and cooked to perfection. 😊💯“

“Always fun arcade area fun dart games fun cool family environment also nice environment for co- workers music is ok. Drinks 🔥🔥 family loves the Ribs. The Sauced Team…. 🔥🔥🔥🔥😁👍🏾“

“Good customer service, delicious food“

“Great quality meat and wagyu. You need to get the wagyu plates to try all the different meats. Beautiful Yakiniku place with veggie options and they change out your stove promptly. Oxtail soup and wagyu sushi plate was delicious as well. Staff was so nice :)“

“I was born and raised on Woody's. I was so happy when the Florence location reopened. That is my favorite of all locations. There are no misses here; whatever you order will be
A hit. The food is always fresh, consistent flavors and quality. The Florence location has the best parking too.“

“I ordered delivery of the small tray. It’s huge, absolutely massive, serves easily 4. Came with an entire loaf of bread, 6 different meats plus the two sides. I got the Cole slaw and the bbq beans, just solid and delicious. Honestly great stuff, good deal, and arrived promptly via ChowNow. I will absolutely order again.“

“Had a nice dinner here at Bowl Thai. You order your food upfront like Rubio’s, and they bring your food to your table. We had their crab fried rice, the texture and seasoning was good it wasn’t dry. We also enjoyed the shrimp pad thai, and they were very generous with the shrimp. Will definitely be back to try other delicious dishes.“

“Walked in for the first time and wasn’t sure what to get, the cashier made a few suggestions and I quickly knew what I wanted. The Food and Service were top tier ! I got the Gyoza w/ Don’s Special Combo & man was it amazing !! MOST DEF coming back !“

“Trying to pull off a romantic picnic ?
Well Slavko's deli is the place to pack your picnic basket and double up on the Ambrosia because this delectable treat of fruit and marshmallow is something you are not going to want to share .“

“I got the family meal and everything tasted great“
