Korean Barbecue Restaurants near San Gabriel, CA

“Pretty good Korean BBQ spot with an all-you-can-eat option in LA. I really enjoyed the food here. The meat was good, high quality, well-marinated, and cooked up perfectly on the grill. Everything we tried had great flavor. Personally, I really liked bulgogi and cow tongues. They were sweet and flavorful. The side dishes and sauces were good too. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared.

The restaurant itself is beautiful. There are lots of tables, and the vibe is pretty cool, without being too loud. I really enjoyed it. We arrived around 8 PM and ended up waiting about 45 minutes for a table, which is okay since we just walked in. There is also pretty nice area for waiting. The grill in the restaurant worked perfectly.

The service was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. They came by our table often to check in, refill sides, and ask if we wanted to order more meat, which I really appreciate. They also took the time to explain the different menu options, which was great.

It costs around $50 per person, and I would say it’s definitely worth it for the quality of food and service you get.

Overall, it’s a great spot for Korean BBQ. I’ll definitely come back if I will be in that area and will be craving for some Korean BBQ. Very good nice!!!“

“All you can eat for $40👏🏽👏🏽“

“Great place for Korean BBQ“

“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.“

“Really, really good food. The pork ribs were amazing.“

“Loved it here! Easy to make a reservation over the phone. Staff was very attentive, helpful, and kind. I was able to enjoy their premium AYCE meats for free because of their monthly giveaways. My review comes from honesty, not for the sake of it being free. I really liked the brisket and the marinated bulgogi. The brisket was soft, the bulgogi had a great flavor. Side dishes were nice, I especially enjoyed the cucumbers and the fish cakes. I honestly could eat a whole bowl of just the fish cakes. The kimchi was crunchy and flavorful. The spicy pork bibimbap was good, had a generous serving of pork, and is a big enough portion to share between two people. I appreciated the casual atmosphere, there was music, but it was playing softly enough that I didn't have to shout to be heard around our table. Whoever made the playlist has good music taste. There was a decent number of TVs as well playing the NBA playoffs. Overall, I really enjoyed my time here and I recommend it to anyone looking to try it! :) Thank you for the great experience.“

“I was so excited to enjoy the DTLA AYCE KBBQ and it was my first time to visit this place without going to KTOWN! Honestly, I was attracted by its snacks through yelp pictures. Off course, its price is another attraction since it is only $26.95 for all day no matter weekend or weekdays. If I only want some good quality meat to enjoy at night, I might just take the $26.95 level. However, I took the highest-level $39.95 per person since it has more choices of meat including a limited order of rib eye steak and unlimited delicious snacks and sides.

When we sat down, they provide us a house salad, macaroni and spicy tomato chip. They did not provide kimchi like other KBBQ no matter what level. I ordered fried calamari, rose ddukbokki, miso soup, seafood ramen, steamed egg and corn cheese as my snacks while I waited for the meat. Highly recommend ROSE DDUKBOKKI and CORN CHEESE especially the rose ddukbokki. It was hard to decried its sauce, um, like a rich, creamy spicy tomato sauce with butter. It contains sausage, rice cake, bacon and sheet jelly?(I guessed). Anyway, both my partner and me agreed it is delicious. Corn cheese is not only corn with cheese. We could felt that the restaurant add some favor inside and it is tasty. Other snacks are good too but not outstanding as rose ddukbokki. I was so sad that I could not order other snacks such as cup ramen fried rice, kimchi jjigae, Korean fried chicken bites etc.. I was too full to enjoy other snacks.

For meat, I highly recommend its rib eye steak that was soft and juicy. Also, their beef belly series are outstanding. I could feel the fat melt in my mouth and the beef belly was fresh(sometimes in other AYCE KBBQ, I could feel the beef belly was not that fresh and the taste was odd). Pork jowl was thick cut!!! It was al dente and tender. Trust me, I thought it is better than pork belly (its price should be higher than pork belly in supermarket). Beef brisket was tasty too but I would mix it with beef belly since I thought it was not tender enough. Rib finger and LA galbi were common and not as my expectation. However, I highly suggest the owner of DTLA KBBQ add beef tongue into the menu. I was a little sad that the menu does not contain beef tongue for the highest-level.

Its environment is special and the whole restaurant inside is hallway. Natural draft makes so little greasy dirt. I did not feel hot even without air conditioner. It has TVs in front of tables and I think it is a nice place to enjoy sport game night with friends. Its employees are nice but busy. Btw, street parking is $4 per hour, and nearby there is a parking lot shows $15. At the end of the meal, we can choose one ice cream per person as happy ending lol.

All in all, I will come again but next time I might take the $26.95 level since I think this level is good enough to enjoy most of meat under a lower price.“

“Like the food clean place the waiter and waitress are courteous“

“My husband and I absolutely love this place . The service is amazing they are very attentive. The atmosphere is also awesome, really great lighting and amazing music. And the food is all amazing as well, especially the cucumbers from the salad bad! They are so tasty and pair perfectly with the meats and rice!“

“todo muy rico y fresco y muy atentos los meseros 💯“

“First time here we celebrated my daughter's 18th birthday. The food was delicious. They have big portions to share. Our server was so sweet we had little ones with us so she asked if we wanted the food to be cooked in the kitchen. My son (7) and granddaughter (3) picky eaters really liked the food. Thank you so much“

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