The best! We love KBBQ. We’ve been to a few other places in Memphis, but none that have both Terra and soju available. The meats were excellent. Japchae and mandu were also delicious. Pro order for two is: japchae, mandu, two meats (bulgogi & samgyeopsal), four Terra and a bottle of soju! Geonbae!

It was a chilly weekend evening, and we all went here to have a dinner. We started with spicy Korean style pancake. I guess there was some seafood was also inside. It was good. However, it’s quite big. So, don’t forget to share otherwise you will be full. We ordered a bunch of different Korean bbq meats. Instead of grilling them ourselves, we left the job for the chefs inside. The good took some time to come, which assured us that everything was freshly prepared. We ordered Galbi, bulgogi, Korean style bulgogi, and the pork belly ( can’t remember the name). All of them were simply terrific. They were perfectly seasoned, spicy, grilled to perfection. The pork belly was a bit dry, however it had a smoky flavor and aroma which was absolutely irresistible. They served rice, some kimchi, and other Korean condiments to it. One of our friends ordered a bowl of bibimbap, which was also very fresh, hot and absolutely filling. Overall, the food was very good, and we all loved it. Highly recommended!

Having been a regular at the OG location on Hacks Cross, I was completely satisfied with my first time visit at the Midtown location. I would recommend a light jacket if you’re not going to be grilling at your table, as it was a bit chilly inside, but it was understandable why.Our waitress Lauren was great, and made our visit pleasant. I appreciate the pre-cook of the daeji bulgogi so we wouldn’t have to grill it for 10+ minutes at the table!

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to have wheel chair enter, tables are spaced apart well enough.

The owner took care of us personally and the food was amazing. A million times better than anything I’ve had across the street at Mulan. Highly recommend, and will def be back. Spicy shrimp BBQ was so fire! The bulgogi beef was also delish. Nothing but good vibes and good food here.

Been here twice now. First time ordered out of the kitchen, second time grilled our own and brought in a bottle of wine. Both times were delicious!

Visited this Korean eatery after visiting another one in Memphis a few weeks prior. Instead of getting a meal cooked in the kitchen, we decided to try the BBQ option where you grill your own meats. We got chicken, beef, and pork during our visit. The meats were all good and the sides that come with it were good but it would be nicer if the portions were a bit bigger. The service was good and it wasn't too crowded. Not a bad restaurant though and I would visit it again.

Great Korean place. I have been here twice. Once I had a noodle dish and the other time a soup. Both were delicious. Also the kimchi is one of the best I tasted.
