Korean Barbecue Restaurants near San Gabriel, CA

“Looking for tasty Korean BBQ that won't empty your wallet? TK 92 in San Gabriel hits the spot! This roomy restaurant offers quality meat and friendly service at fair prices.

What's Good Here
The meat is fresh and cooks up great on your table grill. They have rice paper wraps (not just lettuce!) which makes eating more fun. The servers are helpful and keep things moving.

Good to Know
There's plenty of underground parking—no street hunting needed! The restaurant is big with a comfortable waiting area, but expect about an hour wait during busy times. You can walk around nearby shops while you wait for a text.

Bottom Line
TK 92 is solid KBBQ that's worth visiting when you're hungry for grilled meat. It's good enough to return to when you're in the area, but maybe not worth a special trip across town. Go when you're nearby and the wait isn't too long!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“Great place for Korean BBQ“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“We went on a Friday night. Sat on the patio since it was a nice evening. We did not understand why there was only one waiter for the 7 seated tables. Then a large party (over 20 people) were seated outside near us. Our poor waiter was doing his best, with a smile on his face, but that was so unfair to him

One waiter would come outside "to help" but only talked to the 3 tables closest to the door. Two other ladies brought food out once to some tables. Unfortunately for us, we had the one who had her fingers in our plates. So gross.

We all liked the food & banchan. But since our poor waiter was by himself and this is seemingly the in kbbq place in existence that does not have grill runners, we spent a large amount of time with burnt grill pans before we could cook more meat.“

“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!“

“Great food & service💕💕good location“

“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“
