REVIEWS OF K-Town Korean BBQ Restaurant IN Oregon

Aashna T

My favorite place to have Korean BBQ!! The prices are awesome, the food is fantastic, and you can’t go wrong with the ambience, and Kpop they play! My friends and I find ourselves fangirling at the variety, especially when our favorite groups appear on screen! 10/10 would recommend to people.

Jay V

Fair priced, great food and a nice spot. If you're going for the all you can eat just a heads up everyone at the table will have to pay that. Minimum 26$ a person, but if you're going for a big meal it's worth it.

Shay C

I like that K-Town is all you can eat, unlike other Korean BBQ places in Portland! The staff was friendly and quick and we certainly ate more than enough to justify the cost. I wish, however, more like the other places in Portland, the meat was fresh. The taste could have been better in some of the meats if it had been fresh. A fun place to try if you're new to K-BBQ and want to give it a try!

It was fabulous liked how we can grill our meals and loved the specials on the menu

Melody Li

All Korean BBQ is bound to be good so this 1 star is for the service. We asked the waiter what's the wait time and he said you'll have to wait no matter the time anyways. That was extremely rude. We had someone who needed to take medicine prior to eating. A simple ETA like 40 minutes would've been fine. Not coming here again. And like the other reviewers they slow down their service for you on purpose. Our server would forget our orders and our portions got smaller as the wait times got longer. We had taken a photo at the beginning prior to eating. They cut off our time 30 minutes too early. Congrats on earning my money once when you could've had repeat customers. Finally watch where you sit. We had sat at the edge of the booths. One of the servers placed a cleaning bottle there after we had sat down and it had dropped on my mother.

Jung Gatoona

Unbelievably rude and slow service. Went in on a slow day and the woman serving us was rude and inattentive. When my father asked for a place to sit closer to the restroom, the woman said no even though it wasn't busy at all. When we asked why, she snapped and replied, "Because I said so." WTF. We should have left then and there, but we were hungry. Boy were we wrong. Took 10 minutes after that encounter to basically give us a menu and water. And another 10 minutes to put our first order in, and another to get the first dish out. The only reason they're in business is because there aren't many other KBBQ places around. Hopefully a better one opens up nearby and puts these guys out of business.

taek lee

The standard all you can eat dinner was more than satisfactory, with perfect seasoning of their food. I will come back again especially when I'm hungry!

Martin Herman

Food was delish! Our server could use more work on being organized. Often forgetting requests for more meats and refilling our beverages. Other than the server experience was great. I will return.

Ron Car

Our FAULT for not checking the menu from the website. The staff was friendly and helpful. But...paying $21 to $35 per person was out of our price range to cook the food ourself. We left without eating anything.

Liam Turner

solid options, intensely long wait times to get a table, no reservations, VERY loud inside the restaurant, nice responsive servers, far too many TVs all playing the same thing. eating here felt like sitting through a nightmare where no one else realizes theyre actors in a nightmare.

Milka Douglass

Great food, great service, high recommended!

YeongMin Lee

안녕하세요 Hello. I loved it. Our server was attentive, friendly, and accommodating. Our 3 1/2 year old wanted the fruit from our Soju cocktails and our server brought him some fruit. Server swapped out grill when we requested and kept the meats coming. Food was tasty and fresh. Wish they had more sides (different types).

Greg Menzies

Great experience and great food.

Binh Nguyen

Food is decent. Best thing is the Galbi and Brisket. Some of the marinade on the other meats are a little salty. It's annoying that even though it's All-You-Can-Eat, they make you order a minimum of 4 different meats everytime you put in an order of meats. So you are forced to order meats that you don't even want to eat. The point of AYCE is so that you can eat whatever you want...

Megumi Bond

Staff is very friendly and checked in regularly!

Narcisa NANCY Eral

Deliscous food, fast and courteous service. 5star food place!

Neko Ramsay

Absolutely delicious! Also, very popular, there was a huge line of people to get sat when we had dinner here, so try nonpeak times if possible. They offer all you can eat options, vegetarian options, and have mason jars of sohju on offer. The meat was good - the side dishes were a little meh, but the steamed egg was pretty solid. 3 all you can eat menus, honestly the Standard is the best value unless you're looking for something on offer from the Classic or the Royal. Kpop is also on loop, so I hope you like BTS or Blackpink. Overall, a good experience.

Daniel Ferguson

Come hungry and leave happy. I recommend wearing sweatpants.

Angel

So much fun, great food, nice staff

Shane Day

Delicious food and friendly service. I love this place.

Junyoung Hwang

Possibly the worst KBBQ I've been to. Poor service, bad quality food, and lacks the understanding of Korean food culture.

Ruth McGaughey

The food here is great. Well worth the price!

Chad Estes

Best Korean BBQ in The Portland Metro. The staff is so friendly and remembers my family everytime we go. Dinners hours can be very busy, but try going during the lunch hours. Lunch hours are very quiet and easy to get in and out during your lunch hour.

Rebecca McNeil

I could give 5 stars if they serve fresh tap beers. They kept bring my husband a FLAT flavor beer twice. But foods were so great!

TJ Dryver

Omg omg OMG!!! This place is the BEST. BBQ all the meat and veggies you’d like, right at your table. The flavors are spectacular, the setting (with awesome k-pop playing on all TVs), and the saturating smell of delectable food is just right. Eat your heart out!!!

Josh Jones

We were treated like kings. There were four of us and we got the AYCE. They brought us tons of food and kept wanting to give us more. I am not sure what happened to the folks that are complaining about them bringing small portions. Not the case with us. Plan on spending at least an hour and a half if you get the AYCE. We will absolutely be back.

Tanya Oleynick

Delicious food, and prices equal that. If anything, ask your server. The servers are polite and can tell you a "beginners how to" guide for Korean grill. You won't be disappointed. It's best to take a group of friends with you, to share the experience. There are TVs with the newest kpop playing. So you won't miss much. Great for instaphotos.

vignan sagar

The food was great but the only concern was they had few items mentioned as spicy but they aren't instead those were sweet. Other than that it's a great place to have some delicious food.

E. B. W.

The dining experience is well worth the visit alone. Then there is the food, hmmmmmm, so good. The best part is you can cook your meats at the table yourself, but dont wear your church cloths cause they'll carry the fond memory of K-Town.

d d

All-you-can-eat is misleading, you pick the meats they pick the amounts to give you of each kind. Five short ribs for six people.

Darren Cruickshank

Great atmosphere. Fun place to enjoy food with friends. Great service. Flavors were all really good. Meat was good quality.

Ops Enforcement

2nd time there, staff & food is superb

Feef Graham

My bday party was lit! Literally lol

Clayton Stave

Really decent Korean BBQ. All you can eat options and a good amount of side dishes. They were good about bringing extra sauces like samjeong or gochujung on request. Great place for a small group to eat and chat!

1 2

So basically you're cooking your own food for a decent chunk of change. But, if you're into that, it's a good experience. The food provided to cook tasted great (the all you can eat is a LOT of food prolly more than you are willing to sit and cook) and the drinks were yum. The seating proximity is fairly compact so you are cooking and eating next to strangers. I enjoyed it however.

Ahmed Mohammed

Staff is excellent. Food is good but its definitely lacking a bit. I order several different meats and chicken. I ordered terjayki chicken and it felt like they just brought out a chicken breast with no terjayki. The meat is very thin and easy to cook so thats was good. Overall it was an interesting and fun experience. I definitely recommend this place for the experience.

Roger Vialva

Most excellent as usual!

Hong Yin Smith

The food there is very good. The service was OK especially during dinner hour. They seem to be very busy and under staffed.

Will Gemino Fung

Tables are damn oily after we seated. We cleaned up ourselves. Pick 4 items each time??? Nothing come close to LA’s all-you-can-eat kbbq.

Don Frye

We loved the meat and grilling them at our table. Good Soju drink options. Fun and good food.

Jennifer Zimmerman

Gotta try! Its to Die!!! It checks every box! Designate an hour or more if u want to grill your own food, & if u do the all you can eat skip the salads they give u in the begining. The flight of drinks is super fun. Amazing place for a date or just good fun! Its like a downtown portland ambiance hidden on Foster !! I wish I could have done prom night here. It would be perfect for lunch or special occasion, plus u can sit n meet friendly people when u share a table.

Paul K.

Experienced great service despite a very busy night. Generous portions, too. Not the best cuts or most flavorful of meats I’ve had at a Korean BBQ restaurant, but the sides were fantastic and we all walked away very satisfied.

Dan Armstrong

Great lunch bowl

Green Aesthetics

Pros: -Good meat, good sides -Free rice -Fast service -Great atmosphere -Great music Cons: -Not great for kids (lots of heat, sounds and people, no kids menu) -THE WAIT! If it's a weekend, arrive more than an hour before you actually want to be seated. -It's not by any means inexpensive Tips for newcomers: -Don't order the all you can eat, order plate by plate and be very clear about ordering just the plates or you might end up with a very large bill -Don't be shy about asking for more rice or sides, it's no biggie -Come with an empty stomach -Wear clothes you don't mind smelling like Korean BBQ for a few days after

Valerie Fetters

The bulgogi was very good and the shorts ribs were decent. The pork shoulder was not great, but it was okay. The sides were very small in portion compared to every other Korean BBQ I've been to. Coming from eating real Korean BBQ, I always think it's pricey. You can get a full stomach on $9 in Korea. It was honestly even more pricey than normal here. $25 per plate. We were paying $27.99 per person for unlimited near Seattle. I was very disappointed that our server was so rude. She spoke great English, but she was so rude to me. My friend (who is not Korean but looks like it) came with me and my fiance. The server absolutely refused to look at me or even speak to me. If I said anything she would look at my friend as if she was supposed to be in charge. My friend wasn't even interested in eating originally. I had the menu in my hand and my friend didn't and the server still would only take the order from her. The server spoke to my fiance fine as well, but again she blatantly ignored me. She literally even brought rice for only my friend and fiance and not me....we had to ask another server for another rice. Absolutely rude. At least in Korea, aujummas were nice to my face. It's so crazy that miserable people feel the need to take their bad lives out on other people.

Helen Park

LOVE this place. If you wanna avoid the crowds, look at google's popular times info. Always feel special and taken cared of. Servers are friendly and prompt.

Tien Le

Meat is good, veggies are fresh, service is great. However I dont think it's worth going if you have a large party because it takes forever to grill enough for your party. We came with 6 people and I wasn't full when we left. There was only one grill for a table of 6. It would have been better if we grilled our own meat at home. But come for the experience, atmosphere is great and you can decide if it's worth your time and money!

CL Liu

I went there tonight for dinner, its food is awesome though its a little bit of noisy lol

Javier Fernandez

Amazing dumplings! Very generous portions. Huge Korean beers. Can you ask for more?

Mario Guadarrama

I got to say this is the best we have had. The type of grill the have is well suited for having a square table and people on both sides being able to make food however they want and just interacting without having to you know stand up and look inside of a dome deep grill this is great definitely recommend it

D S

Service, pricing, food, wait time and cleanliness is all there. Love this place and I’m ecstatic that they’re opening one up in Clark County.

Georgene Wickstrand

A bit spendy for lunch but the food was EXCELLENT!

Sithat Chayanam

Our server was great! Friendly and attentive but only in the beginning and end. We had to call on 4 different servers for waters, side dishes and meat. Yes, they were busy but for the 18% Gratuity of 4 adults and 2 kids, we felt a bit ripped off for the lack of service. They basically force their tips on only 6 people and not on actual work. The meat cuts are quality and plenty when you do all you can eat. Cool interior and lighting I recommend this place for the all you can eat meats but don't expect quality with the side dishes. -1 ⭐ Lazy prep cooking. Every time, some of the side dishes came out undercooked and some of the salad lettuces are cut in big sizes like 10 inches in length..evident of lazy food prep. The black beans came out hard and the sweet soy sauce potatoe wedges were raw and hard in the center or overcooked slop. Lacks quality control. Please sample foods before sending out. This has happen on every visit. -1 ⭐ I don't think the ventilation hoods were ON for a long time during our time here, not until before we left. When we arrived, the place was smoky and it irrited our eyes. I can see smoke just rising passed the vent hoods from other tables. And during cooking the smoke would hit my face often. We left smelling of smoked cooked meats, definitly need to shower and change clothes. I wouldn't recommend eating here if you plan to go an event afterwards, unless you change clothing. -1⭐ Understaffed or not properly trained or low moral servers that can't handle a full house.

John Cambridge

Nice place and amazing experience of cooking and enjoying with friends. Had fun and food was delicious. Nice ambiance and seating was comfortable. Lot of space to sit and enjoy. Overall I enjoyed to be here.

Casey Jones

All you can grill and eat Korean BBQ lunch was plentiful and tasty. The sides were excellent and we went home pleasantly full and happy. The grills and hoods are new and very clean with very minimal flare ups and no smoke while grilling the miso and spicy pork belly. Will return in the future!

greg loos

I love this place.

Celeste Lugo

Great, service, music and food. Btw they play kpop. Just another plus.

Summerlynne Walker

First time here! It was alright. Nothing to rave about. Each time we ordered our veggies she would forget something and then our second round of meat she brought out the wrong meat. But it was good food but a tad bit overpriced.

Sophie Williams

Food quality is pretty decent but I feel like staff treat me and my group more rude and slow just because we got the all you can eat combo. Like if you don't put a time limit and serve all you can eat, why you giving me attitude for staying 1 hour? I feel like 1 hour is less than reasonable amount of time to stay at a restaurant that I paid full price plus tips for. Wont come back here just because of employees attitude and services.

Gary Coldman

great korean bbq! yum yum yum!

rod

Great atmosphere and great food. The staff was very helpful.

Ava Nightingale

My first time ever trying Korean BBQ and I am in LOVE! If you have never tried it, it is flavorful, balanced in nutrition, tasty as hell, and a blast with friends especially! I tried it today alone but I cannot wait to come back with friends and really get the full experience! The bibimap bowl I tried was fresh AND sizzling with delicious crispy rice on the bottom! I think this will become one of my favorite cuisines!

Anna Choate

Loved this Korean BBQ place! Friendly staff, great food, but I'd get there before the main dinner rush because they don't take reservations. Totally worth the money!

Scott Reynolds

Such a great feed here. The best Korean BBQ place I've been to. Thanks Veronica for the awesome night

Ashley Jeon

A lot of people have complained about the fact that the food is pricey and they have to grill it themselves but that isn't something to lower the quality of the restaurant. It's actually a quality of korean barbecue to grill things yourselves. Although I can agree it can be pricey it is worth it to spend when you're celebrating something with your friends or family. They use high quality meat and the athmosphere was also really great. The side dishes they provide also have enough seasoning that provides a good flavor without being too salty. Overall the whole experience was great!

Em Black

Bit of a wait, but always worth it.

Doug Troxell

Nice selection of Korean food with friendly staff.

aaron sugg

I'm writing this as I meat-sweat in a pair of freshly donnned pajama pants. So when I say that this place is really, really good, I hope you understand that I truly mean it.

Bennett DLG

Spicy pork n bulgogi beef is bomb!!!

Conor Gilles

Go early. This place gets busy during peak hours. We got there at 5pm on a Saturday and didn't have to wait long. The food is good and the music is loud enough to hear. I am full of beef and pork and chicken and soju. What else is there in life, really?

Diego Boyzo

Food was tasty and service was good

Bryan Tuttle

Very tasty food, and love the K-pop. All you can eat is a reasonable price. Just make sure you read the rules before you order. If it's your first time, tell the server, they will answer all your questions.

Bill Behrend

It has a mod hip k-pop sense of style. The grill options are plentiful. Moderately priced. Can't good wrong with the short ribs.

David Sabin

Ktown Korean BBQ is a great place to experience Korean BBQ in S.E. Portland. You can never go wrong with all you can eat and there is a large selection of meats and vegetables. The staff is friendly and helpful. It can be expensive depending on what menu items you pick and how big your group is but that can be said of any restaurant. My only reason for not giving five stars is because of their ventilation. The vents don't go down to the table like in most kbbq restaurants so you will go home smelling of smoke. So just dress casual but eat delicious food.

Tricia Crain

The food is really good here, which is the most important part really. The BBQ is a little spendy, and if one person orders it you all have to order it, but it's also all you can eat so if you eat your way through all the meats they will bring you more. The place is really nice, it's large and open and well-decorated. The staff were friendly and pretty well informed. We did not leave hungry that is for sure. The atmosphere is fun, they have K-Pop music videos playing on the TVs.

Nick Makiney

This was my first time having Korean barbecue and I was sceptical at first but it was very good. We had a really good time

Jake Wilson

Just moved here from Korea and the food was amazing here. Not complaint at all.

Alithea C

Delicious food and really cool concept... had a blast!

Caleb Martin

Fantastic place. Has a more modern feel to it than most Korean places. Plenty to eat with a tasty drink menu to boot. Recommended highly.

Scope

Horrible service and worst manager Seth i ever met and spoke too, i came in afternoon with 2 friends and waited for our food forever and it wasn't busy and they were keep bringing wrong meats not the ones we ask for, and its only 2 hours limit for consuming food for unlimited meat package, untill they took forever to bring our meats, we didnt even have enough time to enjoy our food and they said our time limit is almost over, after we were done eating, we spoke to manager Seth about how they take forever to bring out the meats we order, i mean they dont cook them we cook them why would it take them long time to bring it out? Like they purposely take longer time to bring meats so customers wont have enough time to eat more, Manager seth attitude was very rude and disrespectful instead of being nice he made a comment about how we didnt leave tips, how dare you ask us for tips when the service was horrible,i dont know how he is the manager there when he doesn't care about his customers and dosent do his job, all he wants is tips.

Kemal Fazlic

Awsome place, definitely would recommend to anyone who likes good Korean bbq. Staff is great too at least from our experience. Although we leave a tip no matter what. The portions are a nice size too especially if you are getting the all you can eat. Looking forward to coming to this place again and again.

Tim Vickers

So delicious! Never had Korean BBQ before, but have seen it on TV multiple times, which lead to the curiosity. K-Town did not disappoint. All you can eat meat options, unique Korean cocktails, and fun experience. Staff could do with being more attentive to our needs, but that was the only critique I could offer on this overall positive experience. A must go location now whenever I'm in Portland.

Bryan Kim

This place is a disgrace to Korean BBQs. Their quality of meat is terrible and their service is only marginally better than their food. I’ve given them multiple chances throughout a few year span and it is just not worth spending the money here. Hard pass.

Tone Ch

With all you can eat, only get 1 set of egg: no matter how many people came to this restaurant.

K.O. Stuff FaII3n_Stars

Service is good food is to die for but the reason I give K-TOWN 4 stars is because the food takes a long time to come to you it takes up to a hour to wait for a table last time i went came at around 5-6 and got my table at around 7pm i recommend coming at least at 3pm or really late such as 9-10pm or at 4-7 if you have patience.

luna Lai

Stuffs were really friendly and fast, all you can eat menu was awesome

Griselda Ramos Chavez

Food is amazing ! But I feel like service is horrible.! We went in and it was a slow day waiter took FOREVER to come and check on us to see if we wanted another round of meat. We didn't get a refill on soda because never came and asked if we wanted more and our plate was burning up of how black it was and never came to check on us. I had to get up and find a waiter to come and serve us it was horrible never coming back to this location again.

Sandra Tena

Really good kbbq spot! You cook the meat yourself in the center of the table. The meats are great and the sides are yummy too. The service is great but it gets VERY crowded on the weekends for dinner. If possible go for lunch instead to avoid crowds. The atmosphere is nice. This is not a "hole-in-the-wall" place but it is also not super fancy. The only complaint I have is that they don't have rice paper, but most kbbq's don't, so I can't really hold it against them.

Shawn Amanda

- MUST CHOOSE 4 Different Meats - Long Waits - Slow Response Time /Average Flavors + Friendly Staff + Fare Price +Fun Music I understand limiting specific meats because of the price point, just make the customer happy and grab an extra rib, throw on more brisket, and don’t forget the pineapple. If the customer asks for more food give it to them and if I can’t eat all of what we asked for, $$$CHARGE ME $$$$. Money is not the problem but having to spend 2 and half hours in a place I’d rather spend 45 minutes at and be on my way.

Ryan Bruce

Meat selection was incredible. I don't even know all of what I ate, pork, beef, chicken, short ribs, odeng, rice, kimchee. All of it, yes. So good. We will be back here in a heartbeat. The service was pretty normal, server came and checked in on us periodically.

Kevin Ellis

We don't have anything like this on the East Coast. At least not in Virginia where I come from. It was so much fun cooking at the table and stuffing ourselves beyond recognition. The food is so good and so fresh. The service is great.

Charles Martin

All you can eat lunch special is ccx a great value. Lots of food for an affordable price. They have "house rules" for ordering. However, food is delicious. All of the sides you get are yummy, too!

Dennis Amilcar Garcia-Santeli

Food and service was good expensive for a single or a couple best for groups

Jared Chipman

So much fun cooking the food at your own hibachi at your table. Great selection of meats and even though the price was slightly high it's absolutely worth it

Zack Ouk

Great experience if you've never had Korean BBQ before. Here it's little different with the rounds system but it works. The staff is friendly and very informative. If you're looking to have a "fun" meal or date. I'd recommend this place!

Dom Monte

I don’t like the 4 order minimum for AYCE. For a Korean bbq it’s extortion. This is the only AYCE Korean BBQ open on Mondays, otherwise I would entertain going to the AYCE in Hawthorne any other day of the week. I don’t know if I’ll be returning due to this 4 item min policy.

Anwar

Great spot, love the bulgogi.. lots of fun, Perfect for groups. Would like to have more veggies when you order them. They don't give you enough when you order them. Servers are tentative. Would be five stars but prices went up a bit recently :(

Brian

Took a friend here. You can cook your own food or they will make it and bring it out to you. It was delicious. They have ample seating available and the staff went out of thier way to make sure we had everything we wanted. Definitely will be going back.

S B

Amazing food every time! Staff can be slow/hard to get their attention sometimes.

Barret Nojima

I thought this place was spendy but it really isnt for what you are getting. Good deal.

will bartley

There is a large selection of meats available. Everything we had was great, the bulgogi was a standout, but the shrimp, pork belly, and otcopus were all awesome. The quality of the meat was what you'd expect from a good Korean BBQ. The veggies were tasty as well. They have cheesy corn, nuff said. The atmosphere is fun, but just make sure you like K-pop. They would get 5 stars from me, but they don't take Amex, even though we were told they do over the phone.

Frankie Frankel

Fun experience for my dads birthday. It is a bit pricey but definitely worth it. Beef bulgogi was my favorite meat choice, so delicious!!

Logan Callen

Really smoky inside but soooooo good and great service!

Nathan Elliott

Incredible as always

C B

I couldn’t be happier with the food, the atmosphere, and the waitstaff. Ernesto and Richard were extremely friendly and enthusiastic about the menu, and the restaurant itself. I could tell they really enjoyed being there. I haven’t eaten such good Korean food since I was in county. Will absolutely come back!

Big Willie

The food was ok, thats the only thing that was good about the place. Awesome right? If you have thick skin and don’t let attitude get to you then it is fine. A real test is to eat for the first hour, take a break for 30 minutes, then right when you are spammed the question, “Ready for the check?” If you respond with “Actually may i order some more good food?” Watch their priceless expression. Otherwise the food was not bad at all. Oh and the sarcastic remarks are entertaining.

Allison Lublin

You MUST get the bulgogi beef!!

Kim Sanborn

It was pretty expensive. I did not know I had to cook my own food at the table on a grill. Some of the meat they brought didn't have any seasoning at all.

keith Mortuiccio

Great staff, amazing food and great atmosphere. This is my spot now.

Olivia Pan

Came here around 4:30ish so luckily no wait for us. We ordered the all you can eat BBQ along with the bean soup and steamed egg. Soup was fine but didn’t get the egg. It tasted quite flavorless and eggy. They prolly should add some cooking wine in it. Meat. Well, I didn’t find it very special. Normally chicken should be safest one to order but surprisingly it was quite flavorless. Not marinated enough for sure. Among all the meat we ordered, I think spicy pork was the only one had some taste in it. Vibe is cool since you can watch all the Korean music videos on their TV. Honestly I was quite disappointed cuz I have been seeing many good reviews. Guess I need to continue my BBQ hunt again.

Eric Ross

Go with your best friends! Make some great memories!

Christopher Estrada

I lived in Korea for 4 years and recently got back. I can't comment on the actual BBQ but their traditional menu is excellent and sells a lot of authentic Korean cuisine that is the best I've had in Portland. Great place and I am looking forward to the new location in Vancouver.

Amy Parrish

I took my son for his first Korean BBQ experience...really great experience, generous portions and friendly service! I will definitely go again!

Zorixion

Always sooo full after eating here. I reccomend the short rib, bugolgi, garlic beef, and tripe. all soo good tho can't go wrong.

Nguoi MienTay

When is 1 hour before closing they every slowly bring out more food

Jeff Carlson

It’s a great way to eat a LOT of good meat! The bulgogi was especially amazing. Get there early because they do not take reservations but come hungry. You’ll be glad you did.

Mike John

Food was great. One of a kind Teriyaki sauce. Definitely nicer than expected for the area.

Deborah Wilson

My first experience at Korean BBQ... It was fun and the food was very good. Our particular server lacked enthusiasm and wasn't strong on guidance

wooyoung choi

Best BBQ in town... all you can eat BBQ

jonathan Truong

Good bang for the buck eating, I come here every few months or so

Becca Bidwell

Out favorite Korean BBQ in Portland. Bulgogi on point

Robert Chapton

Great deal if you go with all you can eat.

Jenn Warhurst

Server was nice and put up with a lot of questions, the bulgogi was great and the drinks are strong.

Terris Harned

Have to say, we were not impressed. Had to ask 3 times for pineapple, had to ask for drink refills, the meat had a gamey taste, the grill wasn't clean, and the veggie selection was all of 6 items. Very underwhelming, especially for the price point.

Altima NEO

Food tastes pretty good. Not really for me though. You have to cook everything on the small grill yourself, which results in nibbling little bits of food at a time. I prefer to have a meal served ready to eat. Which also means this place isn't great for large groups, as you'll be waiting a while for stuff to cook.

Jonathan long

Had never been to a "cook it yourself" Korean BBQ place before but I'd definitely go again. The beef bulgogi was delicious. A neat atmosphere with really tasty food options. Very fun and interactive way to share a meal with friends! Overall had a very good experience here.

Archie Alexandre

Expensive but totally worth it! Only 4 stars because it's more of a party/group restaurant.

Shea Saddler

Clean friendliest staff. Very informative and quick service.

Marissa Franklin

Quality of food is fantastic. Very social and "noisy" atmosphere, and we waited about 40 minutes to get seated on a Friday night. If you're waiting, wait outside because the lobby area is very small and you get in the way of wait staff. Staff was efficient and polite. My husband accidentally left his debit card and staff had saved it for us at the register. Will be back.

Not bad, as other review have state food comes out later and dish get forgotten. Went as group of 9. Only disappointment was having 2 grills but having to select same meats for both grill. Food is as expected korean bbq nothing unique. Would go again but only for lunch.

Delicious food and an exceptional wait staff! My wife and I were impressed enough to come back and, honestly, have changed our "go-to" Korean place! I would highly recommend checking this place out with a group, so that everyone can enjoy the in-table cooking experience!

This place is amazing I mean the food is just OMG GREAT and the workers are super friendly. They have lots of costumers and all like sometimes you wait in line but its worth all of it. I wouldnt mind eating there everyday

Vincent Nguyen

Long wait, the staffs look like a dysfunctional team. Food is not really impressed with the taste. Won't come back again

Chicken Wings

Shawn hudson

The food here was delicious and the service was nice too. Using the hot top was fun, but be sure you eat all of the meat you order or they'll charge you.

Neil Paragas

Fun family gathering or with friends. Very casual and friendly service.

Benjamin Balzer

Delicious non-AYCE menu (if a bit turn&burn), but fun and lively. $25 apiece for All You Can Eat is steep for the quality, frankly, but it's a special occasion sorta place - not a daily lunch spot. Good for groups and entertaining.

Sengpheth Manyrath

Bad service. I went there for lunch, we have to wait for 20 minutes before seating even we are the first. The manager is very rude. There were another group that walk out since the service is very bad. I would have if I did not come as a group. I do not recommend this place. Try different Korean place for better luck. They charge my friend 64 dollars for tip which she did not approve. I saw that after we left the place.

It was first time at any Korean BBQ, so I had no idea what to do. The wait staff were all very helpful in showing me the ropes. Great selection of meats on the All You Can Eat menus, and everything was so Yummy! Can't wait to go back!

Jefferson Guillermo

Great food for the price. All you can eat was great and good quality meats. Friendly staff and very attentive.

Kelly Mack

The all you can eat was a little pricey but it was really good especially the spicy pork. Unlike other places, when you asked for more sides or rice, they gladly provided it. Delish. Nice treat.

Joyce LaBelle

Food was good , people very helpful

Amber Leelee

Good servers and good place to face Korean culture. It is easy to find the restaurant and it has a huge parking lot. They have most of the meat, which is $19.99 for lunch (eat as much as you can) I loved it and it was affordable price for student as well. I do not have any picture cause it was so delicious. However, I really love this place and if I have a another opportunity, I would like to get that chance to eat their food again.

John Toves

Love it will go back again. Much recommended

Riza Liu

$26 all you eat was amazing. Had a group of 9 people. Ordering and paying for food was not stressful at all. Beef bulgogi and spicy pork bulgogi were the favorites.

Charles Wyble

Bad food, snobby host, racist towards handicapped people, FOOD POISONING, There’s not enough toilets in this town for what I caught there

Carlos Mendoza

An awesome experience! Beef is best for a quicker meal, the chicken can take a while to cook, so its best to use the scissors and chop it up into smaller chunks than what is provided. Remember to use the oil provided to help the chicken cook faster. Beer towers have ice in the center, so id recommend getting a pitcher instead. Serves about the same amount, albeit not as fancy.

Mercury Hydrargyrum

wonderful staff ,very pleasant and great food.

Sigh Clone

Definitely recommend this place with a few friends..great food and fun to cook it yourself at the table!

Dazzling Sylveon

I have been here at least 5 times this year and ot has always been amazing! Great atmosphere, amazing food, and great service every time!

Jackson Cafazzo

In-table korean bbq with current K-Pop videos playing gives the whole experience a surreal yet entertaining vibe. How did I get all the way to Korea!?

Emily Liu

The food was delicious (meat and veggies). The atmosphere was very noisy in a social kind of way. There were TVs playing K-pop, which was interesting, but it was mostly female choreography where they showed off... basically the same body parts in every dance. (Which is fine, just be warned if you're bringing a family.) The BBQ was very expensive ($30 each with a party of eight) so I can't say I'll be back soon.

christopher Johnson

Great place. Service and food at great

Daniel Edwards

Repeat customer. All you can eat is totally worth it. Ask for the bean paste and oil/salt sauces (they are game changers). Had a great time.

Boris Fett

Went out with a group of 8. The wait was not that bad but later in the evening the wait got up to 45 min. The food was good but they kept forgetting some of the veggies we asked for as well as rice. It kind of sucked having to get the unlimited just because others wanted it. I really just wanted a single dish but had to pay for allot of food I wasn't eating. The parking area was decent sized but it was nowhere near big enough for 3 restuarants right next to one another so you might have to park further away.

John Parvin

I wasn't sure what to expect when I went into this restaurant, as I never before had visited a Korean bbq place. What I found was a pleasant surprise, as you have the option of getting pre cooked food or cooking it yourself, on a grill inset into the table. They have an all you can eat option where you select four meats at a time from a fairly long list of things like coconut curry chicken, teriyaki chicken, spicy chicken, garlic ginger beef, wine marinated pork, as well as sliced meats like pork belly, and brisket, and the more unusual fare such as chicken gizzards, chicken hearts, tripe, and odder selections. You also get an automatic selection of sides such as a bean curd jelly in soy sauce, bean sprouts, fish cakes, rice and salad, all refillable... You also can select from a variety of veggies to cook alongside your meat like bokchoy, green onion, eggplant, mushrooms, and even tube rice cakes. They also have sliced pineapple you can get too. Overall, this was an incredibly enjoyable experience, though I recommend going early, shortly after they open at 11:30am, as it does fill up quickly after noon. With that said, you can count on dropping a pretty penny or two... as weekend all you can eat is 25.99 per person, with everyone having to take that option if one person does.

James Nguyen

Different tiers of all you can eat. Plenty of options and great service. There is a time limit on the buffet, but it's pretty reasonable.
