13 Best Korean Restaurants in Tustin

“If you're looking for a top-tier all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ experience in Tustin, I Can Korean BBQ is a must-try! From the moment we walked in, the service was attentive and friendly, with the staff making sure our grill was always clean and our meats were cooked to perfection.

The meat quality here is excellent—everything was fresh, well-marinated, and flavorful. The premium cuts like the beef brisket and short rib were melt-in-your-mouth good, while the pork belly had the perfect balance of fat and crispiness when grilled. They also offer a great variety of banchan (side dishes) that complement the meats well, and the kimchi was spot on!

What really stood out was the ambiance—modern, clean, and spacious, making it a great spot for both small gatherings and big groups. The ventilation is solid too, so you don’t leave smelling like smoke.

For the price and quality, this is one of the best KBBQ spots in the area. Whether you're a seasoned KBBQ lover or a first-timer, this place will definitely satisfy your cravings. Highly recommend!“

“Nothing to do with this location specifically, but Flame Broiler has got to get their app to at least basic functionality. Half the time, it doesn't show any restaurants on the map, and several times, it gave me an error message once, causing a double order which I had to pay for.“

“Cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. Always perfectly fresh and tasty for all of the times I have gone over the many years--- Consistently perfect !! And the staff is always amazing and the restaurant is crystal clean! I love this restaurant!! Oh and I love the music too, it is so positive and uplifting that I go away feeling so happy and uplifted - thank you to whoever owns this restaurant for imparting such a wonderful experience, the food, the staff, the atmosphere and the MUSIC!
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!“

“If I want to have real homemade Korean food, I always go to this joint. Don’t get me wrong, there are other great Korean restaurants in Orange County, California. But, this restaurant has real authentic Korean dishes at very reasonable prices. I’ve been coming to restaurant for more than 5 years, and I don’t intend to stop it as long as this restaurant exists. In addition to the great food at very affordable prices, all the staff at this restaurant are very friendly!!“

“incredibly fast service, clean, good food

Parking: there's a small parking lot right out front but you can park in the huge lot on the other side and walk around the building as well if needed

Kid-friendliness: people bring kids here all the time. the food is pretty simple (kid friendly) and the restaurant is welcoming“

“Delicious and affordable AYCE KBBQ with quality meats. You can order select meats from the server and they also have a self serve meat bar with lots of options. Few of my favorites from the premium menu were: the wagyu beef belly, prime marinated short rib, and prime marinated boneless short rib cut.

They offer 3 menu options~ weekday lunch ($21.99), signature ($29.99) and premium ($38.99), which all include the meat station.

Great service and they came by often to change the grill.“

“Had a little karaoke night with some family and friends. The staff were able to get us a room fairly quickly, and most were very kind and accommodating. I left no rating on the food, as my group did not try any. I would definitely come back, but I did feel surprised when their POS system would not let me tip any lower than 20%. I’m used to having more options“

“This is, without a doubt, the best BBQ spot in Tustin. The incredibly friendly staff is a bonus, but let’s be honest—people come here for the food, and the food is AMAZING. I had the brisket and Tri-tip sandwich, and it was fantastic. You won’t be disappointed if you eat here!“

“We ordered takeout here and it was quick. This location wasn't packed at the time and we didn't have to wait in line for our food. There's a few tables inside to dine in and shares a big parking lot with other businesses nearby. We only live about 10 minutes away so our food was still hot when we got back. Chicken stayed crispy too. My partner had a bad 1st time experience at a different location so this actually restored some trust in this franchise hahaha“

“I love this ZIP BBQ in Tustin, Its small placed but it well management the store are very clean the services are great and fast the foods are excellence. Thanks will coming back and recomend“

“We stumbled across this cute little spot since the place we were going closed shortly after we arrived. They have a few bar stools for seating and outdoor seating, but it was a rainy day. Service was general... not friendly but not bad. We were the only ones there but just took our order and gave us our food.
The food was good. We weren't expecting a gourmet meal. Overall would come back if looking for a small lunch or snack. Horchata slush and the Kimbap was our favorites.“

“AN OVERLOOKED GEM! The pork was simply divine, and the owner so eager to ensure his guests were happy with their meal.

Parking: So many restaurants have so little parking: it is a delight to have easy, plentiful, FREE parking right outside the establishment!“

“Excellent! My first time eating "real" Korean BBQ. I met a friend of mine at this location for lunch. We got the premium menu. All I can say is "wow"! The service was excellent, the food was great quality and I ate myself into a food coma... Just trying everything! So many delicious meats and sides to choose from. The service was spot on. Everything I needed was brought to me at just the right time, without even asking. My drink never ran low, my grill never over used and my plates always replinished. My favorites were the wagyu beef, the kimchi fried rice, the dumplings and the salad. Second favorite meat was the longbone beef. Would definitely recommend. Great experience.“
