Went here with some old family friends. We wanted to order from the ala carte menu and the unlimited bbq but they didn't let us, so that was a bummer. The meat choices for the unli menu were pretty good. The sides were also yummy. Would come back!
This place was authentic Korean BBQ. Soooooo good. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants an authentic experience. The service was excellent.
I asked my Korean friend which kbbq I should go to while in LA (because he went there often to visit family), and he couldn't remember. So he asked his mom, and his mom said the really good place closed. And also said any place is probably just as good (I mean, it is Ktown). So I yelped this place up.
Good Quality Meat. What is there not to like for an AYCE Korean BBQ restaurant. It's a tad bit more expensive than other AYCE places but that's because they really use better quality meat. I only come here for AYCE BBQ.
Service here was really strong. The servers are so attentive and really fun to talk to. Very speedy too. The food was also great for the price. Very affordable for all you can eat in LA. Be sure to come hungry. The meets were great and everything came out amazingly. I would wish that they had more than three main sauce options because I love yum yum sauce but overall the options they had were still good. I would definitely come back here and am very glad I chose to come
Great all you can eat Korean BBQ! The meat is fresh,land tender. One of the best kimchi soup I’ve had, very flavorful, a must try! You get 90mins to eat and you can order up to 4 plate at a time. The waiters are very fast picking up empty plates on the table. My only complain would be there’s no ventilation system, the air only travels out with open windows. $37/person. Pretty good deal.
Service was fantastic. They are friendly and polite. Food delivery was quick unlike other places that are slow. Food was delicious and the price is fair.
Our service was AMAZING BY DAVID !! He was absolutely 💯 wonderful. We drove all the way from Sylmar just to try this Korean bbq for the 1st time . David is the reason we will be back , he was accommodating to us, made us feel welcome, explained the menu to us , had patience with us , and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time and our bellies were full .
Delicious Korean barbecue at a convenient price. I would definitely go back. Go before 6 on weekends to avoid long waits
I love it I love it! I don't think Korean BBQ will ever be the same anymore for me. The food was SO good. SO tender. SO juicy. I would say though paying extra for the 3 extra dishes wasn't worth it though. The base price you can already get the really good L.A. short ribs. You're allowed to order 3 meat dishes at a time, which was fine by me. The orders come pretty quickly too. I also really enjoyed the bean stew, since it was like a comfort food. There's no dessert though from what I remember, so if you're choosing a place based on free ice cream, this is not the place. But if all you want is high quality meat, Oo Kook got it.
Food was delicious! Definitely worth the price! Just be ready because it's like a sauna in there. The only complaint that I have is that they automatically added a gratuity without informing us. We were a party of 5 so I understand, but there was nothing written anywhere and it was never mentioned. I told the server that although I understand, it should've been told or written somewhere. On my way out I double and triple checked to see if it said it anywhere. The server did apologize and told me it was his fault for not mentioning it, but otherwise nothing else was done. He was an amazing server tho! And we had a lot of good food and a great time there! I would definitely go back again!
These guys were working hard AF when I was here. I'm greatly appreciative of everyone's efforts. Meat is decent for the price, grill changing was solid and staff clearing our table for empty plates and taking care of drinks was great.
I only had a few issues. The floor was super slippery. The music was so loud that it was difficult to ask for anything or even call a waiter over when we're ready to order meat. Nothing can be done about customers being loud but if the music is louder than that it's going to be hard to communicate unless the servers were more vigilant. That normally wouldn't be an issue and I understand the servers are dealing with multiple tables but with a 90 minute limit and not being able to put in our order we ended up waiting for a significant amount of time doing nothing. Clearing sides and having them replaced before we even get meat shouldn't happen. I'd at least want to order meat 3 times within the time limit. And that still doesn't feel like enough.

For the price of $37.99 per person for AYCE, it really is a steal in the area, considering there are so many surrounding kbbq spots competing against each other. At that price point, I wasn't expecting filet mignon or rib eye to be on the menu, but it was! I personally love meats that are unseasoned because if the meat is fresh, the natural flavors and juices will show. Plus, that's what dipping sauces are for. I enjoyed the filet mignon, rib eye, beef tongue, brisket and the
PARKING: $4 VALET on site or you can try to find free parking in the neighborhood. IMO, it's just easier to pay for valet and get it over with so you can enjoy your meal sooner. They did a fantastic job with parking our car and pulling it up so it was easy for us to get out of the parking lot. Make sure to tip them if they do a superb job!
SERVICE: It seems like this spot is a hit or miss with service, but we got lucky and our server, Daniel, was super attentive to our needs. He constantly changed our grills before we could even ask for a grill change, and made sure that we always put our meat orders in. I noticed that other tables had to wait longer for their orders because they had a different server. My experience and rating for this kbbq based on service alone would have been very different if Daniel was not our server. Guess we just got super lucky when we went!
Delicious Korean BBQ in a nice setting. High quality ingredients, price was very fair. Service was excellent. Valet parking was reasonably priced. Bathroom was clean. Will be back for sure.
Good quality, good taste, very busy, long waiting line, and a reasonable price!
I’ve been here before during busy and not so busy times but they’re seem to be consistent when it comes to attentiveness and responsiveness. The choice of meat is good for 36.99 adult 19.99 child.
I would have given this place 5 stars if it wasn't for the parking lot attendant. First, let me start by saying this place is great. All you can eat Korean BBQ is heaven. But at the same time it is $30 per person. For a family of 6 it came up to be quite expensive. I had 2 kids with me and when I asked the guy if kids had a discount it took him 2 minutes to respond with, "ok it's $16!" With that price should have been free parking, not a vallet with a rude guy charging $2 to move my car 3 feet.
Waitors were kind of cold in the beginning but started to be nice later. You get your own grill and cook your own food as you wish. Experience was great, food was delicious. Also, no American Express cards accepted. 2019 folks and amount you charge will cover your Amex expenses.
This was my first time experiencing Korean Barbecue and I really enjoyed it. Make sure you come hungry, as you want to get your money’s worth. I liked how many options they had for meat as well as fish and vegetables. The service was acceptable but definitely could’ve been better. I recommend making a reservation because the restaurant fills up quickly. If it’s your first time, I suggest you come with someone who knows what they are doing because the cooking can be a little daunting. The price was decent, but buying alcohol quickly drives up the total.
This Korean BBQ establishment is ok. The service was not as good as other restaurants in the area but it got the job done. The valet parking was only two dollars the was a plus. The food portions for some of the menu items were very very small. I ordered the baby octopus and only got two very very small octos. I thought that was a little strange but I guess the freshness made up for it. They also had duck breast which was very good not very gamey at all. The rest of the food was also very flavorful and plesent. The staff came around often and would replace the grills frequently. The tables were big enough for two large men to sit side by side with enough space in between. The grills we're big, they could fit many servings of food. There were also very hot and cooked the food fast. The atmosphere was very relaxed and inviting. Overall the experience was good and positive. Will definitely come back and tell my friends about this place.
If you want to eat a whole bunch of meat you gotta go to this place! The first time we went it was a little bit intimidating to figure out how you're supposed to cook and eat this food, but we pretty quickly figured it out by watching people near us. The beef is very good, high quality and delicious. They also have nice little Korean type, side dishes and sauces which are also excellent. The service is fast and the atmosphere is fun with good music and people just having a good time. Highly recommend.

BEST AYCE KOREAN BBQ! So I have usually been going to Hao Jangs for AYCE Korean bbq UNTIL I found this spot! This is the way to go for sure!
First-The location is right in the heart of koreatown. It’s a pretty cool building that you can’t miss. It definitely stands out. It has a decent sized parking lot, but there is some street parking but not a lot. The restaurant itself is pretty nice. Well decorated, good music and smells great from all the food cooking! We went on a Thursday night and it was still busy. But joining the yelp waitlist helped a lot. I recommend doing this! The staff is really friendly and very attentive! The price is better than a lot of the other places.
And SO WORTH IT!
Second-The menu is perfect. They have a lot of options to choose from. But not to much that it overwhelms you. I stuck to brisket/spicy brisket/filet mignon/ New York strip, and some shrimp and it was just so damn good. The sides are just as good! The spicy cucumbers are AWESOME! Good macaroni/kimchi and the veggies were great! You get awesome portion sizes and they are fast to bring everything out! For only $36 a person it’s the best there is around. I believe they have a small beer menu as well.
It's worth the long wait to come in. Fast friendly service. They are constantly changing your grill, keeping up with water refills. Delicious marinade meats.
