The location was recommended from Google and we went there to grab a bite after a movie with my family. The first thing I heard when I walked in was “I’d like to pay so that I can get out of here.” (Apparently the two had been waiting over 15 minutes to pay their bill after they were finished) So that wasn’t a great start. We were seated after just a little while and then had our order taken. Thankfully my wife’s food came first, but the rest of the food took a while. I was fine to wait, but then half my order was forgotten. We had to grab one of the staff and ask about if it was coming. It seemed that it was sitting there ready to come out. Just wasn’t picked up. And again, just like the other two that came out before us, we were stuck waiting to finish and pay our bill.
The food is fine for the price, but I would recommend ordering ahead with carry out or some delivery service. The service is what really gives this place a 1 Star. Beyond that, it’s fine.

We were very disappointed with the food here. We did the AYCE KBBQ and had 1 sushi roll. To start, the sushi we ordered was the Vegas roll that was suppose to have salmon, avocado, and cream cheese. Now we were very hungry, so we kinda ate it real fast before we realized there was no salmon or avocado in it, we were like welp it was only $6. Next, the KBBQ was not great. First, the beef belly was sliced way too thick. The beef marinate did not have the right flavor, marinate was something you would use on chicken. And the other meat had mostly fat on it and very chewy. Little to no usual side dishes. They had fruit, but that was pretty much it. We have been to plenty of other KBBQ and this rated as our lowest one. The server was very nice and the look of the restaurant was great, but will not be back here again.

Cool vibe walking in but left disappointed. While waiting for our first round of meats to arrive, I went to the salad bar. There were very few options but also horribly unclean plates everywhere. All of the sauce trays had crumbs in them and the shiny plates had visible stains on the edges. Same with the silverware.
From the sauce choices, the chili paste was absolutely rancid. It tasted like old peanut oil, which is shocking since I’ve eaten 2+ year old chili paste that was already opened without flavor issues. It didn’t have any of the spice you would expect either.
They only allow 1.5 hrs to eat, and the grill was cooking so slowly it felt intentional to run the clock. We kept needing to turn the heat up. Once we finished our first round of meats, it took maybe 15 minutes just to get the next order. Our drinks were empty half the time, and our waiter was infrequently seen. The third round of meats took at least 20 minutes to get to the table, and repeatedly we had items missing from what we had verbally ordered.
As for the meat flavors, many of the items lacked seasoning/marinade and cooked bland. Do NOT order the pork belly, it was like rubber and just tasted like you were eating the fat. The sides are pretty good, the best was the Jalapeño poppers. The crystal noodles were super fun and well seasoned.
Auto gratuity of 18% is added for groups of 5 or more. That’s a high expectation when you’re cooking your own food. Overall was decent food, but for the price, it’s just not up to par and not worth the visit in my opinion.

Just went there after a very long day of work I had been wanting sushi all day long waited an hour before I finally got any food the ice tea tasted like dish soap I was told there was a huge party they were very busy that’s why I had to wait I asked for a discount because one of the orders was covered in piles of cheese unable to eat it and the drink was horrible they didn’t offer a new ice tea just took it away. They only gave me $5 discount I have been coming here for years I will never be coming back again very horrible service I’ve never waited that long for food other then the party I was the only customer dosent make any sense very disappointed o even said hey you can throw in pot stickers make things right the manager said no. Okay then

It's not bad just isn't worth the value like some other kbbq restaurants are. You are limited on several sides to a certain amount per table. The meat wasn't the highest quality but overall tasted good.

Good sushi, the all you can eat Korean BBQ was a bit out of our price range. Excellent service and server. The restaurant itself is a bit dated and can tell it’s past its heyday.
Nice atmosphere. I got sushi and miso soup. I enjoyed the unique miso soup with mushrooms.

We love ordering from So Grill Korean BBQ and Sushi. The sushi has way more sashimi in it than any other sushi restaurants in the valley which surprises me, and they are delicious! Huge menu to select from with sushi, appetizers and their daily Korean BBQ buffet. Great presentation of food with decent taste. Hostess and restaurant owner are always very friendly and smiling! Thanks for the great food! : )
My husband and I love Korean bbq but this place is the worst that we have been, we were close by so decided give it a try, the quality of the meat is definitely not there. Better go to Ombu or kou that are on the same price range but better quality. So sad to say that we spend our money here.
Terrible service.
