“Came in pretty close to closing but they were nothing but phenomenal. They even managed to upsell me on buying a brownie! Super personable, more a family kinda attitude rather than outright friendly customer service, which is a nice change of pace. We got two sandwiches, both of which were great--though the spicy barbeque sauce I tried on my husband's sandwich was a bit too much for me, but the mild was perfect for probably the best chicken sandwich I've had. Worth every penny.“
“Wow! What an amazing array of authentic dishes. Loved my tea egg and plum juice. The food was so flavorful, spicy, fresh and so tasty! The menu “app” was easy to order from with photos and descriptions, if you weren’t familiar with menu items. Items were well priced as well. This is definitely on my list for every time I come to Seattle!“
“This place is amazing if you visit in person! We ordered once during the pandemic and wasn’t impressed, but decided to give it another try. We were not disappointed! The menu is pretty extensive. We ordered an assortment of skewers (our favorites were the pork belly, beef and fat, and chicken gristle) which were all nicely cooked and had great flavor. We also got a side of cold cucumbers which were refreshing and slightly tart / sweet and the spicy rice noodles. My husband loved the noodles which were very comforting to eat alongside the skewers. Everything tasted very fresh, was served quickly, and decent in portion. We hit $88 and the waitstaff gifted us with a shrimp dish, which was also very yummy. After the meal, staff also gave us two yakult drinks to wash it all down. The service was also great - water and napkins were provided without us having to ask. So glad we decided to stop by! We will definitely be back to try more things!“
“Very fun with a group of friends and food was amazing! Every body has fun sitting around chatting and joking and trying all sorts of combos of food. I had the kimchi broth and added all sorts of veggies and mushrooms to the beef I put in it. It was delicious! I wish our server had come around more often so we could order more items. Other than that very much looking forward to coming back!“
“The food is amazing! The waiters are nice and fast with service. Favorite waiter is the one with a koi fish tattoo super nice and talks to everyone and super cute. Ambiance was not loud but there was some music. It's reasonably priced as well“
“Really like the soy garlic chicken half mix! Pork bulgogi is on point thank you for offering pork! You do show crinkle fries tho and we just received regular fries. Very nice staff and pretty inside although we have only done take out (several times). We will be back.“
“We went on Saturday around 4PM and we waited for about 20 mins until we got seated (we put ourselves on the waitlist on the iPad by their door). I love the parking situation here- there is a garage with plenty of parking! This is the best AYCE kbbq spot in the Seattle area! It's $45 pp but the quality of meat is INSANE. I normally don't like to go to AYCE places because since it's unlimited, the quality of meat usually lacks. But this place is different!! I love the variety of options here as well as seafood options. Staff were very friendly and attentive to our needs and they change the grill multiple times so your meat doesn't burn. The ambience is also great; very modern and lively with kpop music playing in the background. 10/10 recommend and I'm already planning my next visit“
“Briley's BBQ in Kenmore is hands down the best barbecue joint I've ever had the pleasure of dining at. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the tantalizing aroma of smoked meats that promises an unforgettable culinary experience.The food at Briley's BBQ is simply divine. Each dish is prepared with care and expertise, resulting in flavors that dance on your palate and leave you craving more. Whether it's the perfectly tender brisket, the mouthwatering ribs, or the succulent pulled pork, every bite is a testament to the skill and dedication of the chefs.But it's not just the food that makes Briley's BBQ stand out—it's the atmosphere as well. The restaurant has a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. Whether you're dining with friends or flying solo, Briley's BBQ is the perfect spot to kick back, relax, and enjoy some damn good barbecue.In summary, if you find yourself in Kenmore and craving some top-notch barbecue, look no further than Briley's BBQ. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.“
“Various cuts of meat were all good, but not quite the quality I expected at their price point. I realize one doesn't go to a K-bbq for the banchan (side dishes), but also found their lack of variety and bland flavor somewhat disappointing.“
“This is for their new AYCE menu. I unfortunately never had the opportunity to try Niku prior to the AYCE revamp.The price and food quality is pretty good for an AYCE BBQ place. Better service and food compared to some Korean BBQs that I’ve been to. Notable recommendations are the Karubi, Beef Tongue, and Finger meat. Then if you’re a fan of duck, definitely try the Duck Breast from the A La Carte selection. Their vegetable/sauce/side dishes area might seem small but it honestly offers core pieces at a BBQ place (veggies, rice, soup, and etc.)The 90 minute limit didn’t bother my party of 3 at all. We all enjoyed our time and the employees never rushed us or anything like that. I was pretty dang full nearing that 90 minute mark anyways.I do recommend a reservation though if you’re showing up on a Saturday night. The restaurant was pretty packed and I could tell there was quite a wait. Also the atmosphere is just great, very dim and cool ambience.Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for a different AYCE BBQ place in the Aurora area. It’s a nice option since it’s closer than going over to Bellevue for Gyu-Kaku.Parking: It’s a free shared parking lot with a bunch of other stores. So you might not get a prime spot in front of the Asian Family Market. But you can park at the Hobby Lobby or LA Fitness nearby and walk on over.“
“This place is an absolute GEM! Everything was delicious and tasted better than Umma’s cooking! Sorry Umma! I hope she does see this. lol! Reasonable prices and so so delicious! Highly recommend!Take out side dishes, lots of soups, kimchis, main dishes etc. You won’t be disappointed!“
“Wow! My experience at Wuju Korean BBQ Intestine Pot was fantastic! The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed. As for the food, it was simply delicious! The Korean BBQ was flavorful and cooked to perfection, and the intestine pot was a unique and tasty dish that I highly recommend trying. Overall, Wuju Korean BBQ Intestine Pot exceeded my expectations, and I can't wait to go back for another delicious meal!“
“Pet friendly and people friendly bbq place in slu. The server was so friendly and has great service as well. Getting my pup a bbq treat and water. Suggesting things on the happy hour as well. We got the double meal and it was worth the $30 bucks!“
“I'm not comprehensively knowledgeable in Korean cuisine. Therefore, a review from me is not fair necessarily. I can say the quality is good. I enjoy the food as I do return. I'm open to learning more about this cuisine. I say go. ?? Also, it's really warm in there... layer and peel.Parking: Sometimes tight, but ok.“
“Tasty food and friendly service. I visited on a Saturday between lunch and dinner time and was one of two small groups. Ended up ordering the lamb platter and tzatziki and fried cauliflower and everything was very good. The pita was pretty fluffy and the lamb nicely seasoned. I also enjoy the fried cauliflower a lot with the generous seasoning.“
“This is a great, unassuming little BBQ joint. The food was excellent, we had ribs and chicken. The meat was tender and flavorful. The sauce is great, but subtle. Don't expect a faceful of vinegar or smoke. Same for the slaw -- delicious and subtle. Owner Bao and his daughter were friendly and the service was great.“

“My husband loves kbbq but I’d never been. We came here on my birthday and both got the AYCE for $35. He also added an order of the short ribs for an extra $10. Well worth the money if you ask me. The service was incredible, as everyone was helpful and kept good conversation with us. I can’t wait to come back! I couldn’t have asked for a better bday dinner.“
“Great service & ingredient quality! Highly recommend the Beef Combo (serves around 2 people), and then ordering extra of whatever you liked best. The A5 Wagyu Steak was $15/oz, but pretty reasonably priced considering what it was and the quality. Was also nice that they grilled the wagyu for us.“
“This was my first time trying seoul bowl and I HIGHLY recommend it! There are so many options and flavors to choose from, you can really make it your own. The food itself is so delicious and filling but isn’t heavy. The staff running the truck are super nice too. I am sooo glad the food truck is in Kenmore weekly. Go check them out if you haven’t already. You’ll be glad you did“
“Stopped in and eyes were bigger than our stomachs, but thankfully Moonshine is open later than other BBQ restaurants on the Northside of Seattle. We started with Poutine w/Brisket and Fried Ribs, and then the Family meal of BBQ with Sweet Potatoe Fries and Colard Greens. Rounding it out we also ordered a side of Mac-n-Cheese and Fried Jalapeños (not on the menu, but you can order them).Everything was good, and we have enough leftovers for entire second meal. The Fried Ribs was my favorite, and the Colard Greems were next best (IMO). Staff was very friendly, and everything were ordered was brought to us quickly.“
“My small group guys and I heard the spot got new management so we came by to check it out. And it did not disappoint! The quality of the meat and side dishes were excellent. It's nice to see a Korean bbq spot not compromise the quality of their ingredients. Also, the servers were so friendly and attentive. You don't feel nervous asking for help or service as you sometimes would at other spots. As a Korean I'd highly recommend. And don't forget to try their Gookbap!!“
“Um, I'm not sure what happened here. I felt like I was in a foreign country.We went for coffee and dessert.It was easily the worst espresso I've ever had. The honey cake was flavor free, though beautiful to look at...I should stop there.I actually enjoyed myself.Weird, huh?“
“The price and meat quality for AYCE here compared to other places is unbeatable! Banchan aka side dishes were refilled constantly.Service is friendly and the establishment is clean.People need to get real about their expectations of Korean BBQ and its average cost. $30 per person is VERY reasonable considering how much meat and side dishes you can get. I’ll be back!“
“Wow. The brisket was amazing. Literally melted like butter and broke apart with a touch. Not dry at all extremely flavorful. Great seasonings. I ordered for take out got the slaw. Mac and cheese and chili cheese fries. Everything was amazing serving size was great definitely filling. I had some Hawaiian rolls at home to make a sandwich out of it. Amazing. I definitely recommend. Service was quick and got my order within a few minutes. The place looks nice sports bar. I wonder if they show ufc fights there. I'll ask next time I order. Great location convenient but parking lot is kinda small so take that in consideration.“
“One of the wonderful things about moving into a new neighborhood is discovering all the little places that are within walking distance. Places that not only add convenience to your life but make the grind of the city a little easier just by being there. This is one of those places. It's simple, hot, Korean food done well and in very good size portions. They pride themselves on their fried chicken, and they SHOULD. It is juicy and crispy, and there is plenty to your order. The catch is, it tase better with the sauce they serve. It's a kind of ketchup that has been spiced perfectly to pair with the chicken. If you are a single person in the area, this is the place to come, not only if you want to get full but to have leftovers for the next day. I did.“
“Honestly, the reviews are so mixed so we weren’t sure what to expect. Korean BBQ is our favorite meal together - we have a favorite spot in our hometown of Chicago that we used to go to like once a week and a spot we regularly frequent in NYC whenever we visit. I don’t know if I’d put this on our top 5 best KBBQ spots but maybe top 10! The quality of meat was great, good soju selection, pretty good service, loved the side dishes, no complaints here. I’m not sure why there are some bad reviews about meat quality… maybe they had an off night? All the meats were good. Did not disappoint. I’d say the service is similar to what you’d expect for an average KBBQ spot, maybe slightly expensive for what it is portion wise but I won’t knock a star off for it. If you love KBBQ give it a shot.“
“We decided to get a-la cart meats rather than all you can eat or the set menus so we could target what we liked, and it was definitely a good choice. Food was brought out quickly and service was attentive (giving recommendations, cleaning grill grates, etc). Definitely will be going back.It can get crowded later in the evening, so plan accordingly (reservation, etc).“
“This is your standard (read: authentic) Korean BBQ restaurant. Housed in a large space, it’s not fancy but has everything you would want for K-BBQ: hot and cold bar, traditional table grills, super-friendly service, and a decent drink selection. Conveniently located in the Redmond Bella Bottega shopping center with plenty of parking.“
“Really happy to find this place. Went on a busy Saturday night. The place was packed! The service was amazing. Super nice staff that were working very hard.I got the bacon tofu soup as suggested by two staff with the kalbi combo. I will be getting this again. My dining partner had the kimchee pork soup and while it was great said she’d also be getting the bacon next time. The short ribs were incredible.The banchan was filled often, and even came with a fried fish which was delicious.“
“We reserved a table and went. They have a great selection. As a vegetarian, I was pleased to notice the chef using a separate ladle to cook vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. Additionally, they kept the rice separately. The coconut curry was good, but the soup was unavailable, so we couldn't taste it. The staff were friendly and didn't rush us, even reminding us about the closing time“
“I had the bulgogi beef plate. The meat was tender with a yummy sauce. The owner was friendly and welcoming and we had a nice conversation. They made the food quickly and the price was great. I will be back for sure! (Also what Barry and the other reviewers said about the owners. Special people!)“
“Alt/goth human, normally only frequent a members only club of the same, but damn if my 90s2000s highschool heart didn't melt at the soundtrack bartender Ryan had for us (korn, disturbed, offspring and more! )! Love the vibe, art on the walls is top tier and eclecticWill definitely be back for more!“
“Terrific barbecue! Excellent side dishes!We just got back from a trip to Texas and we ate barbecue at Salt Lick in Driftwood, Texas. Larry's is equally as good and their beans are better!Also take his barbecue sauce home...at least 2 jars.I think they've been open for 30 years, for good reason.“
“My experience at New Gangnam BBQ IV was largely enjoyable, as I found many aspects of the dining experience to be quite pleasing. While I appreciated the flavors of the meat, I did notice that it was slightly under-salted, though still enjoyable overall.One aspect that detracted from my experience was the wait time for service, which seemed a bit longer than expected. Additionally, the restaurant was quite crowded during my visit, which made the atmosphere a bit hectic and noisy.Despite these minor drawbacks, I still found New Gangnam BBQ IV to be a good dining option. The quality of the food, despite the slight seasoning issue, was satisfying, and the overall ambiance of the restaurant was pleasant. Overall, I would consider it a worthwhile dining destination, albeit one that may require a bit of patience during busy times.Vegetarian options: Salad barDietary restrictions: You can choose what you eat hereParking: Good parkingKid-friendliness: Saw some kids here and their is highchairsWheelchair accessibility: Ramp“
“Has to be my favorite Korean restaurant ever! Everyone was welcoming and helped us figure out which foods to try out! They were happy to help with any questions we had and even gave out watermelon to everyone on one summer day. Interior is simple, but very spacious with lots of room to move around! The soft tofu soup and side dishes were my absolute favorite!“
“We came around 8:00pm on a Saturday, so it was pretty busy. We got seated around 8:30pm, and there was 9 of us, so we had to wait for them to put two tables together. I really liked that you just go grab your own meat (except you have to order brisket from them) from the cold bar. And they had a nice hot bar. Lots of sides you can choose from. And this was the first time I saw marinated crab for all-you-can-eat, and I ate more of that than anything else. Service was friendly, and food was great.“
“So I wanted to try a new place for wings and I figured I’ll give this place a try ! and let me tell you these bad boys came in smoking hot and so tasty on delivery ? ... Definitely recommend the wings :) and next time I should dine in ?“
“AYCE on your own grill! With side dishes and soup included! I like the spacious seating and fast service too. I think the meat quality was much better than the other all you can eat bbq place nearby. I tried their entree menu and their Korean food is legit especially the intestine “
“The barbecue is very fragrant and delicious, very authentic Northeastern barbecue, and the ingredients are very fresh. I recommend roasted potatoes, roasted pig's trotters, roasted green beans, and sausages. They are all very delicious. The dishes are very clean! The main thing is that you can eat and play. There is also a KTV where you can sing, which is very convenient. The price is also relatively affordable. It feels like it can be used for gatherings or gatherings. Recommended recommended recommended!“
“This is the only authentic Brazilian self-service restaurant I’ve ever been to in the US. Food is pretty good, service is not great, but staff is friendly. We usually wait a lot in line to get bbq meat during lunch time, but I think it’s better when it’s not crowded.“
“We got our food to go, and the person taking our order was extremely knowledgeable about all of the food options, combinations, and gluten and dairy content. So we were able to make the best choices for us. The chicken was very good and the sauce took it to the next level. The ribs didn't need the sauce to make it tasty and I say that because my husband says that truly good barbecue doesn't need sauce because it can stand on its own. For the sides, I ordered corn on the cob, which was just OK. It didn't have a lot of flavor, although it seemed to have butter on it. It seemed to be a little waterlogged. I also ordered the coleslaw. Once I added some salt, it was very good. Coleslaw is always very unique at all these different places. When we arrived, there was a couple sitting outside eating their lunch and they went out of their way to come in and tell the person at the front how much they enjoyed their meal before they left. While we were waiting, another gentleman came in and ordered and was very excited to get his food , telling the person taking his order that he absolutely loves the food at this place So based on all that, you should check it out“
“By far the best Korean BBQ restaurant in the area, I have tried different Korean BBQ places but this location has the best side dishes, plenty of options. And of course the staff is wonderful, I don’t understand the negative reviews about the flavors not being great. The flavors are wonderful and the soybean past, along with the vinegar with onion sauce is amazing it adds extra flavor. But the best side dish that I absolutely love is their mashed potato salad it’s just Devine. And I have never had to wait long to get a table. Finally the price is totally worth it. Even if it was more expensive I would still go there.Parking: I never had trouble finding a parking spot.“
“I have eaten at the Bellevue location as well as here and both are very good. My husband and I miss korean fried chicken from Korea and this place curves the craving. Nice and crispy and seasoned well. The kimchi fries were good too! The bulgogi bowl was yummy and I liked how you could have it with japchae noodles instead of rice :)“
