This place is an institution. Been at this location forever. We really enjoy their Yakiniku Seoul Special. There's enough food for at least 3 people, so it's great value! Please note that for the Special, they cook the food, not you. The side dishes are also delicious. The service here was very fast and friendly, even though it was a busy Friday evening.

Food was decent but the service was not so great. Our server was grumpy, she didn’t even say hi to welcome us nor did she smile once. When we went, the restaurant was dead, maybe one other table there. It also seems like they’re only friendly to their own kind. Odd location of establishment but there’s parking behind the restaurant. This wouldn’t be my first choice for korean bbq but if all fails, sure.

You can choose to cook the meat yourself or have them cook it for you. The staff is friendly and answers your questions. The menu is in both Korean and English. The food tastes great.

We eat here every time we are in Honolulu. Hidden gem and not far from Waikiki. The staff is so helpful to put the meat on the bbq if you slack. Don't be in a hurry with this place....just enjoy every moment. Lots of different cuts of meat and sauces and dishes to put into lettuce wraps. They refill your lettuce if you run out, too!! Very excellent food and staff super attentive! Go here to experience what a Korean BBQ should be...this is the gold standard.

The cleanest restaurant in Hawaii. The food is clean and very delicious. It's not too salty and tastes like mom's cooked rice without any seasoning. All the side dishes were delicious.

Parking: It is located at the back of the building.

항상 이곳에 방문할때 마다 갓 지은 밥 ? 주셔서 감사해요."I highly recommend Yakiniku Seoul - a five-star experience! Despite its old facilities, the cleanliness is impeccable thanks to the diligent owner. The tables are spotless, and the toilets are well-maintained with a noticeable shine. This Korean restaurant prides itself on serving freshly cooked rice with every meal. The food tastes fantastic, making it a must-visit spot!"

The restaurant is not pretentious and overpriced, which is perfect when you are craving for affordable and great tasting Korean food. There are a lot of non meat options for pescatarians and vegetarians. The banchan is generous and the sweet servers will give you more if they see that you enjoyed them. The seafood pancake is one of the best I'd had in Oahu and I also liked that they provided options to have bibimbab with meat or not, and to be served in a normal bowl or a stone bowl so you can enjoy the crust that will form at the bottom of the rice. It's great to bring large groups for gatherings so you can take share the bbq or hotpot options.

Vegetarian options: There are great vegetarian options but maybe not vegan unless specifically requested or asked

Parking: Plenty of parking spots available in the commercial building shared with other businesses
