Reviews of Charm Korean Bbq (Restaurant)

Isaias Patino

A lot of options, or if you’re packing an appetite do the all you can eat! The service was great, the beef belly was addicting! All in all, it was a pleasant experience!

John Fischer

I've eaten here several times now, both grilling and single entrees. The meats are all excellent and the staff are very friendly and attentive. If you like grilled meats you should give it a try.

Randy Schmidt

Nice place and great food and wait staff.

René Moulinié

Service and food were excellent.

A. Maxine Clontz

Fantastic experience. Friendly hostess when we walked in, good sign, seated right away despite concerns we’d had about maybe needing a reservation after reading yelp reviews and getting conflicting information calling the restaurant on different days. Our waitress was clearly rushed (there’s a hiring sign out front) but she was so friendly, and we never ran out of yummy things to grill. They changed our grills out several times to accommodate the char from different marinades without us asking. The food was pretty good (lowest tier) but you mostly pay for the all-you-can-eat aspect and the experience. Our table got garlic pepper beef with every round of meat, my absolute favorite, great with opaque sauce they give you. The pork shoulder was also quite good. We got spicy octopus, which is HILARIOUS to watch cook! Highly recommend this little bowl of baby octopi if you have someone REMOTELY squeamish in your party and want some schadenfreude with your meal. The little tendrils curl and uncurl as you turn them on the grill. The overall meat grade was okay. It feels like we definitely got our money’s worth. The sides were okay. They brought out less variety than I expected, I wonder if they were low on stock? Other tables were a bit low too. We were able to ask for some things which were brought free of charge with the meal, like their yummy steamed egg dish, it reminded me of a shrimp custard I had in Japan. Following suggestions from Google, I put a bit of kimchi on the grill, and some pickled onions too. That was pretty good! It made the kimchi a more tolerable spice level for me (I struggle doing week 2 of Torchy’s August tacos, but order my Tarka medium heat, for context of my spice tolerance). The corn side was a bit weird but the seaweed salad was good. One note for management - one boy kept coming out to the floor to retrieve grill pans who attracted the wrong kind of attention. He’s either s rude person or was really having a bad night. At one point, he actually shoved his empty cart into the cart we were being served from while the waitress was with us, then rolled his eyes while he had to wait for her to work with us. Our waitress was so sweet and working so hard, I strongly disliked that boy’s attitude. If he can’t even pretend to be nice in front of customers, he probably shouldn’t be allowed on the floor. Tl;dr: Service early on a Monday was friendly & efficient, if not chatty - A+ in circumstance. Protein was pretty good if you chose the right things and mixed it with the right sides - B. Sides were okay, most were great grilled. Average to B-. General restaurant vibe is humble, friendly, ample portions, tasty.

Good place but I wish there were more traditional side dishes.

Wesley Wright

Fantastic. Service is wonderful. Food is great.

Alan Cardon

Great place to take a group of people. The kimchi is always on point and the meat options even on the cheapest menu are really good.

Jason Orr

As far as KBBQ goes, this place was 3 stars. We came for the all you can eat and got the menu that included the kalbi (LA and Seoul-style) and it was pretty good. I'm giving this restaurant an extra star because our service was excellent. Very friendly, very attentive, among of the best service I've had in a while.

Khoelle Basnight

Simply outstanding. The basic menu is $25, but you get an all you can eat to choice meats and various side dishes, though I'd warn you to not fill up on the latter. The service is outstanding and I would strongly reccomend this place. The only potential downside would be the early closing time.

Jin Karl

If you're looking for your first Korean BBQ experience, look no further. This restaurant has really tasty food. They have the BBQ and the normal Korean food, I and my wife tried the BBQ and we loved it! For $25 a person, you can eat ALL YOU WANT, beef, chicken, pork, all are good. I haven't tried the whole menu because I got full after the second dish (1 dish comes with 3 choices of meat), but everything is great. We also had the rice to eat with, it comes with Korean side dishes, I like kimchi the most. Overall it's a good experience. Highly recommend!!

Kayla Meadows

Prime Rib was great, sides not so. Staff help great

john jung

Poor customer service, the manager rude. The other staff were kind though. Too expensive for the service and quality. Will not come back .

Leon Liu

service was so bad! food quality wasn’t good. will not come back to this place anymore

Rick De Los Santos

Great service, great menu selection, delicious food. Charm Korean BBQ probably the best Beef Bulgogi in the Austin area, and I've had it at quite a few places. For appetizers, we had the Kimchi Pancake which was crisped to perfection and flavorful and the Steamed Egg was really good as well. We had galbitong, cold noodles, and other stuff I can't remember but it was all good. If you need to make reservations, you have to call (as of 3-9-19, they werent on Open Table). The all-you-can-eat option is $25 but it can have long waits on nights n weekends so llan accordingly.

Jac Cepeda

I don’t know of a better all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ joint in Austin!

htayy15

On a scale of 1-10, I’d give it a 11. Delicious food. Good place to eat at. I highly recommend it.

Timothy Hefflinger

Make sure you are truly hungry before going to Charm. The marinated meats (chicken and beef) were excellent! Service was great, too. The sides left a little to be desired, though.

Reese Z

Meat was good. The Bon Chon was sad. They turn the heat up too high. They skimp on the napkins and plates.

Rachelle Pierson

Very expensive. And didnt really enjoy the food. The waiters were a little rude. They did throw together a birthday song and cookie which was appreciated.

Ricky Salinas

Good food, service ok.

Charlotte

staff are nice, but not a good quality of meats. disappointed

Shinhoo Woo

It has good lunch meal menu but I will say the bbq all you can eat has little thing slice meet

byeongtaek hwang

This place attracts me more than once a week. Korean soup is so good and it made me feel come back to home. Once I had a team dinner with all you can eat, spice pork and small squid was awesome! I recommend this restaurant to experience real Korean food.

Shawn Neuman

My daughter and son-in-law love this place. So they took us. It's an interesting concept. The center of the table is a grill. The server brings you different kinds of meat, and you cook it yourself at your table. It's fun and interactive. But, I would choose a Brazilian steakhouse over this any day. I thought it was a bit pricey, and I only liked about half of the meat choices we tried. Plus the tables are small. With the grill in the center, small dishes of meats and sides placed anywhere they would fit, I definitely felt cramped and crowded. Just a personal thing with me I guess

Bryce Law

Lunch special was pretty good price was alright beef bugolgi was good

Blake Jeffrey

Always good food always good service. The spicy pork belly and spicy marinated pork are bomb as hell.

soonyoung lee

Great place for korean food

Thomas Loupe

I went to Charm for a special celebration. The wait time was an hour, but we were made well aware of how long it would be. We decided if the wait was that long, then perhaps the visit would be worth it. I'm no stranger to Korean BBQ. I've been to various KBBQ restaurants from San Francisco, to Orlando. Surprisingly, Charm was the most authentic experience to date. The waiter was extremely helpful in explaining the menu items, how their deals worked, and what came with each menu purchase. The meat we ordered was in good quality, but didn't contain much marinade. The lettuce provided for wraps were a bit oversized but were manageable. I was pleased to see that garlic was provided as part of the side dishes (Banchan). The side dishes were absolutely fantastic and are usually one of the deciding factors in whether I return or not, especially since the meat we chose didn't come with any kind of marinade (not all meats do). The meats were not overly salty at all, which was something I expected but was surprised not to find in Korean-prepared meats - which made the experience much more pleasant. The waiter really nailed our order, and did a great job with service. He gave some tips as we were preparing our food ourselves in passing. This is another thing I appreciated as an American diner in a Korean restaurant - typically, Korean servers will be extremely blunt and sometimes come off as rude when explaining certain things. The waiters typically assume you are stupid and do not know what you are doing, so tips in passing by was a much nicer way of dealing with less-than-perfect KBBQ grilling culture. As with most Korean BBQ restaurants, we assumed there will be no take-home food, so we did not ask. We ate our fill, and then some, and left an extremely generous tip for the waiter. His excellent culture bridge in explanations and tips really sold us on the place. The tables were smaller than usual, but clean. He changed out the grill for us at an opportune time that didn't interrupt our eating, and visited the perfect amount of times to check in on us. It was well worth the wait, and time cannot pass fast enough until we're ready to go back with a reservation.

EastGreylynn

Great bbq and korean pancakes

Wei Ming Li

Great place with authentic food. Tables are a bit small for all of the food and dishes involved for buffet BBQ though.

Bo Yang

Be aware, this place will not serve you (allow you to eat on the grill table, all you can eat option) if you come alone on the weekend!!! I have been to many restaurants, but never had experience like this!!! HORRIBLE!

Maritess P Barnes

Service is good and the barbecue is delicious.

kate lovely

It was delicious only for sangalbi( beef ribs) and hangjungsal(pork neck).

Brittni Huffman

It was really good excellent service highly recommended

Manoj Vastrad

Highly recommended and not just because it’s the only all you can eat Korean bbq in Austin! (But really Austin needs to step up its game.) Cannot praise the service I got here enough. I was a bit apprehensive going there by myself but the young gentleman who waited on me put me at ease and took me through the steps. I chose the first option on the all you can eat menu(deluxe:24.99). I could choose three items at a time and it made sense as I took a while to finish my three items. For one person it can be a bit hurried as you cannot finish it as fast as it cooks. Definitely recommend going in a group. Again great service the wait staff always available to help without being too obtrusive.

Raymond863

Went there 2 weeks ago and the main problems we had was our family had to sit at separate tables because two of them didn’t want the buffet while the other 2 did that was the biggest problem there and also the waitress was not coming to the table enough and she kept forgetting items we also drove from San Antonio and no where on the website did it say if they don’t eat buffet they can’t sit there. I been to many Korean restaurants and this is the first time I even had to split my family up they would rather use another table instead of having the room for more guests to make more money .

Robert Long

I tried Charm Korean Bbq for the first time today and it was really good! We had the A option ($24.99 per person, all you can eat) and at the end of our meal we were positively bursting at the seams. The server brought out our meat selections along with rice and many Kimchi style extras, and we cooked it ourselves on the built in grill. I personally preferred the spicy options, such as the pork and octopus. The staff were very nice and friendly. Note: take all you want, but eat all you take or there is an extra charge. Will definitely go again!

Jackie Chang

My cousin said this was his go to place. We had the All You Can Eat menu and enjoyed the favorites like sliced brisket, pork belly, bulgogi, spicy pork, etc. Quality and quantity of the meats was excellent. I also got a side of cold noodles which is one of my faves. The room we sat for BBQ had excellent ventilation and it did not seem smoky at all. Great value!

Miguel Zaldivar

Seated right away. First time trying Korean BBQ and it was great. All the food was delicious and the wait staff was excellent.

Professor Levi

It’s a bit pricey, so we don’t go that often, but if it’s in your budget to go, make it happen. If you’re going just for restaurant purposes, as in just to eat meals, it’s not the best Korean restaurant. Definitely stick to the barbecue there if you go. It’s amazing.

Amanda Helms

Great place to sit down with friends or family and share an experience together. Two tips would be to make a reservation during high traffic times and make sure your group is decided on all barbeque or all pre-cooked dishes, otherwise you'd have to get separate tables. Food was wonderful and service was friendly and prompt.

Kevin Janowiecki

I loved it here. Came with a couple coworkers and my wife, who is Korean. We got the barbecue and our waiter was very nice and let me practice my Korean when ordering. My wife said it wasn't as good as in Korea, but I thought it compared pretty well based on my couple visits. My friends loved being able to grill their own meat and the dipping sauces they provided were really good too.

Bobby Saunders

Korean BBQ and the scene at this place is excellent. Cool place to meet and catch up with coworkers. Definitely worth a return visit.

Josh-Azu Porres

We lived in Korea for a couple of years and loved going to a chicken spot by the name of "Kyochon Chicken". I swore up and down that nothing would come close to the delicious, savory chicken in Yongsan, S. Korea. Today, that changed and I found a place that not only matches that feeling, but surpasses it by taste! Amazing!! The Honey-Garlic and the Spicy Soy are to kill for.

chrisput1024

Absolutely rancid. My Wife and I got the Beef Bulgogi and BOTH got Food Poisoning. We should have left when there were no Barbecue tables left. The Bulgogi was watery and undercooked, the sides were laughably small, and the Waiter extremely lazy or not very bright. We both love Korean food, but will NOT be eating it for a while, as a result of this nightmarish experience.

Rene Reynolds

Waiter was SUPER helpful! This was my first time having Korean BBQ, and he was super helpful in explaining everything to our group. The food was DELICIOUS. Definitely reccomend the marinated chicken!

Cafe G

I and my friends came here. We chosen “ all you can eat menu”. We would like to enjoy and grill food by ourselves . But The waitress came to my table every 5 minutes. She tried to grill the food quickly because she wants us go soon. I feel very dissatisfied. Finally, we left here within 30 minutes. it is so awful. Don’t waste your money for “ all you can eat “ here

Micah Wiseley

Excellent bulgolgi, especially the pork!

Laresa Courville

The service is outstanding, and the food is delicious! Prices are very reasonable and the portions are very generous. Will definitely be coming back!

Trey Oberpriller

The staff was fantastic. The teenager and the ten-year-old loved cooking on the grill at the table.

Brenda Cristal Quintanar Mendoza

Good choice to eat.

Nathlie Booth

This place was amazing! The wait is long but totally worth it. The food was excellent, we loved the marinated octopus and the egg side dish! It is pricey and there will probably be a wait but this is the best Korean BBQ I've had in Austin!

BaoTrang Le

The food comes out fast and its really good and the servers are also really nice.

David Torres

Food is good but the customer experience felt rushed and constantly being reminded about when we need to leave feels rude in my opinion. Customer service should match the food quality

Nathan W

Always a favorite date night visit but weekend nights can have very long wait times for the self-grill tables.

Nayeli Ramos

The best Korean food! Worth every penny!!!❤️

H. K. Lee

The staff were friendly.. The food were not good. I could taste MSG in the stew I ordered and also from my friends' too. I heard that people go there for all you can eat meat menu and they are satisfied with eating meat a lot. But really it's nothing special for a Korean cuisine.

Tenia Wilson

Amazing bbq! They let you cook yourself and help if you need it. Our server was very helpful and fun and smile the entire time we were there. The food was fresh, the sides were great and the service was great. Living in Killeen, sometimes we have to drive for diverse foods and this was worth the drive on 35 lol

Gary Humphrey

Great family friendly place, the wait staff are very helpful. I will take my family again and again.

Jonathan Monjaras

Finally had the opportunity to try out this place. It's been well worth the wait. The pork shoulder, pork belly, garlic pepper beef, and thinly sliced beef brisket was awesome.

zachary coleman

Good experience definitely will be back

doublerose ranch

This is a very nice Korean BBQ restaurant. I have been to better but not in Austin. The kimchee was great today. Great prime rib galbi. Overall 4 +

Brandon Hong

Decent Korean BBQ. Meat is pretty fresh and service was good. Real busy on Sat so ho there during weekday. Place is little out dated looking but food is good.

Oelme Riza Balase Blackstone

I came here with family on a holiday and they were busy, but luckly we made a reservation. This is the third Korean BBQ that I've been in Austin. The hostess was very nice and greeted us as soon as we were inside the restaurant. The food here was good with many extra side dishes. We ordered the "All You Can Eat" Charm's Special for $49.99 (kinda expensive) each person. It's worth it if you really want those extra cuts of special meats. So, if you want the all you can eat be sure that you're really hungry... They also change the stainless steel grill pan constantly so that you don't grill on a burnt surface. The only reason I gave it a 4 star is that they don't have a call button for you to call your server. You had to wait or wave another server to get another order or get your check... Other than that and the price of the food, we were satisfied.

Emily Amason

Went here for the first time and will definitely be coming back. The food was exceptionally good! Service could have been better but they were really busy and sever was overwhelmed. Everyone was very friendly and food came out really quick.

Tyler Norberg

Been here both for lunch and for the bbq. Great tasting, great service. Staff is very friendly.

Scarlett Hao

Very few Korean restaurants in Austin serve Korean Soju, and Charm Korean BBQ is one of them. (Another one is Together Restaurant on North Lamar. H Mart doesn’t carry them. You can also get some from 99 ranch liquor store.) Here they have both Jinro Fresh and Chum Churum, the two leading soju brand in Korea. Servers here are nice and helpful, replace the grill rack frequently enough. They have nice range of meat selection, (could be a bit pricey though), good kimchi too. They also have the 2 hours all you can eat option. Looks like a good deal.

Huisuk Kim

Cold noodle was warn and too many lumps... Noodles are stuck together and moosh... Maybe chef cooked noodles too long and didn't rinse properly in child water.

Kyumin Whang

A little pricy but the food was great. Next time I'm going for the buffet.

April Davis

They do not seat single people on the weekends. I eat out solo all the time. Not cool! They said "get some friends"

Steve Kim

I will say better than most places in Texas, but does not compare to the West and East coasts Korean BBQ.

Douglas Harrison

Food's great and always fun to try and get as far as you can in the buffet. The experience is well worth the price

Vince

Their staff was so rude. Specially the lady in front. Poor customer service. Super bad experience. We were regulars here and we were celebrating a birthday but our day was ruined by their staff. The server that served us gave good service thats why I give them 1 star.

Janine Juliet

If you like meat, I recommend it.

Tuan Pham

Best Korean bbq place in town!!!! Flavors are great and delicious!!

Matt Duncan, MAEd

Expect a line, especially during dinner rushes. But the food is always amazing! Highly recommend. Great spot for date night or a group.

Parker Garner

Food was ok but the service was bad

Emily Emmons

Good lunch menu selection. Gives you a ton of food for the price!

Kai Hahm

The best Korean restaurant in Austin hands down.

James Bryan

It's interesting place I would come again

Dakota Moon

Had a wonderful time at Charm tonight. We got the cheapest all you can eat option and we were not disappointed. The side dishes (corn, seaweed salad, pickled daikon, egg, Kimchi, and bean sprouts) were all great (The kimchi was to spicy for me but my spicy tolerance is basically less than a hot cheeto) The marinated beef was my husband favorite. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Jason Nein

Great place if you wanna grab some food at night

Robyn Stringfellow-Lein

Authentic Korean BBQ with decent prices!

John Peck

My wife worked in Korea for 10 years. This is the best Korean BBQ in the area. The food is amazing and the experience is authentic. In Korea you cook your own meats like at this restaurant. Try it you will like it.

AJ Malhotra

Good for being the only true Korean bbq in Austin. Very good service.

Vance Ely

So much to pick from and you get to grill right at your table. Awesome service, great flavors and it's all you can eat! Wish they had more parking, but just carpool and you should be fine. Friday and Saturday nights are packed so maybe hit it on an over day if possible.

Koby desu

The amount of food you get here is amazing

Montserrat muro

Good food awesome experience

yuwen wang

Fantastic all you can eat Korean BBQ. $25 per person with choice from 10+ types of meat, unlimited amount. The price is very reasonable given their generous amount and variety of choices, all VERY delicious! There is normally a wait for BBQ.

Jessica Lee

It was so delicious that afterwards I hated myself for how much I had consumed. Sincerely, the wait staff was excellent and friendly. All the meats were quality, and the side dishes (especially the cold buckwheat noodles) were delicious.

Austin BusAdventures

Great food and good service. $25 for all you can eat Korean BBQ plus all the sides you care to enjoy. I left very full and satisfied. Authentic Korean food and drinks

Josh Compean

A little helpful tip because we learned this the hard way, but it was also our first time trying Korean BBQ. Instead of putting small bits of meat at a time, just put all the meat in the fire and let it cook with some moving and flipping to make sure its cooked thoroughly, because no one wants medium rare chicken (which is not a thing, don't do that) Went with a small group of friends and tried option A to test the waters and felt we definitely got our money's worth of food after three servings. Should you start to feel full, ask if they can give you a smaller portion of meat to cook because they do charge you for the food you let it go untouched, it's their way of cutting down waste but still giving you what you want. If you never had Korean BBQ before, this would be a good place to check out

Phillip Shim

As a Korean, its pretty good. Qualities obviously not as good as the ones in Korea though. Definitely go for set B instead of A. You get access to the great parts of beef like Galbi. Everything B is better than A

Amaryllis Umali

Such a fun experience for a good price. Great for a group outing. The server was so polite and got us everything we asked for.

Amy Ho

Came here for lunch with a group of 8. We were from out town and had been to plenty of kbbq places before. There are three different all you can eat options but WARNING—everyone in your group HAS to get the same option otherwise they’ll separate you. Me and another friend wanted a different option from everyone else so we had to move to a different table (away from everyone). I would’ve given 1 star but because the waiter felt bad and gave decent service, I bumped it up. Also, even thought I went from a table of 8 to a table of 2, I was still automatically charged the 18% gratuity which is ridiculous when I didn’t even get to eat with my group.

Kevin

Delicious food. Cool environment. The octopus is delicious

Steven Haynes

One of my fav spots for Korean BBQ. the service was friendly and sociable. prices are fair i would say.

Rusty Traylor

Outstanding lunch experience. I had the pork bento box special. Tons of small side dishes, along with a sizeable main course. Definitely will be back.

D Man

Very expensive and it doesn't have as many varieties of food like the one in Dallas. I spent $55 dollars here for an all-you-can-eat while the one in Dallas is only $30 for an all-you-can-eat with much more variety than here. The all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ in Dallas is cheaper than here with more varieties of food and other choices. The Dallas location is in Carrollton, Texas on the northwest side of Dallas.

AJ Magsaysay

Wonderfully friendly staff, good beer selection, and awesome wings!

Kali Davis

Only $25pp for the basic BBQ which was plenty for 2 people. We were a little unsure of how to cook everything but our waitress was informative and checked in on us many times. Loved the side of seasoned corn and the drink menu was larger than I expected. Great atmosphere and was surprisingly not hot considering there were grilles at each table. This made for a fun date night!

HappyFeet

Ambience is pleasant. Service staff is polite in general, but less attentive for BBQ serving. Food is tasty and portion is just reasonable for lunch/dinner. The BBQ price is slightly high for the portion and quality served. The marinades of the proteins, some is overly spicy and some lacks flavours. Thus the BBQ is just average. Hard to BBQ with a large party of people. The BBQ tongs is limited for use, (~36% of large party size gets to BBQ) while the rest wait. Each trip order chooses only 3 proteins. Finished it and then reorder. As each diners has their own masticating speed, some grill emptied sooner. There is quite a lot of time spent on waitress’s attention to order the proteins, waiting protein to be served. This made the BBQ less enjoyable, as we keep looking out for waitress to come.

Dan Martinez

A hidden gem just off 35! A friend took me here and I wish I knew about it sooner. The staff were attentive and helpful in guiding me through the menu and process. I had a lot of fun picking different proteins and you get to cook them right there at the table. Absolutely delicious and a great social food activity!

Alan Pound

Wonderful service. Very helpful for folks new to Korean BBQ. Don't be afraid to ask. Good food. We usually go for BBQ. But the menu items are wonderful as well.

Rosiland DuPont

A great place for Korean BBQ. They have several different levels, according to price ranges in the meat you want to eat. We were able to cook our food at the table and they kept on bringing us more food whenever we requested it. This is at no extra charge. Just be sure you eat it all up or then you do pay extra! If you don't want the barbecue they have individual dishes as well.

Gabby Jaimes

Love this place! Fast friendly service all the time. Food is amazing and good quality! Best Korean bbq in Austin :)

Alex Screeton

Best Korean /Asian food I've ever had. I asked them to make my dish spicy and it was actually spicy. Not 'Americanized' spicy.

Morgan Haining

Awesome! Great BBQ!

Michael Dinaw

The LA short rib tasted really good. Well marinated and the meat peels off of the bone so smoothly. But kinda small portion if you get it à la carte.

Artem Chebotko

It is similar to many other Korean restaurants we visited around the country. Kind of average. We were a bit surprised about their bulgogi. It taste very different from other places - not bad, just different.

Huimon Philious

Note bbq requires reservation the night before or they make you wait an hour to set up so be prepared Didn’t order bbq so can’t speak to that. Ordered from the standard Korean menu so had spicy Nengmyun and Kalbi which was good. They gave us kimchi which is nice because this dish typically does not have the same condiments like rice dishes. Waitress was nice and told me that I spoke good Korean for a non-Korean. I take that as a half insult - half compliment considering I am Korean.

Jason Flinn

The BBQ is great for a group of 3+ for the amount of meat you get. Plenty of sides given to pick off as well. Don't be afraid to ask your waiter about tips/how to use the grill, they expect 90% of customers aren't familiar with it anyway.

G. H. C.

Always happy to shop at Costco. So why only 3 stars? First thing is that I always wish whenever I shop there that they have Express lanes. I'm a handicap and standing around when I have only a few items is painful. Second thing is that they get rid of quite a few items that I enjoyed very much and normally they never come back. Most of the times I don't know what they are and get very disappointed. I wish they have a system that lets know the customers of what those items are.

youdun fuckedup

The marinated meats are very satisfying, and from what I hear from people have been to Korea, it's an authentic experience. (Some dishes they order extra spicy, usually American restaurants make dishes less spicy then what is standard in other countries). I'm mainly making this review because every time we go there the service is excellent. If you aren't familiar with Korean BBQ never be afraid to ask them questions. This place gets BUSY on the weekends. If we came here with a larger group I'm sure we would need a reservation

Sarah Hernandez

Lots of food in the lunch special beef bulgogi bento box! I'm taking almost half home. I'd love more flavor in the meat, but it was good enough for me to come back next time I've got a craving for Korean.

Adrian hernandez

Best korean bbq!

Jeffrey Frey

Great food. First time our waitress took the time to explain everything, and suggest options. On top of excellent service, she was fun and refreshing. If the food doesn't bring me back, she will.

Melissa Dye

The food is absolutely authentic and delicious. You can eat in and experience cooking your own Korean BBQ. The staff is very friendly and helpful; and ready to make it a fine dining experience.

Jimi Bickley

Great all you can eat Korean BBQ. The staff is very friendly and attentive. They are right there if you need any dishes refilled. The quality of the meat was also a pleasant surprise, as it wasn't tough or overly fatty. The baby octopus was fresh and delicious. I definitely recommend this place if you want good Korean BBQ.

Emily Ann Ibarra

I was in Austin, TX for a hike and I tried this place for the first time and it was absolutely amazing. I loved the options and the quality of meats. Definitely recommend this place!

Cindy Aidoghie

The service was fantastic! The food was flavorful and there were plenty of options. You can order individual dishes or the all you can eat option. It is a bit small, so you can expect a wait during peak times, but it is definitely worth it.

Jared Aldridge

Great experience and tasty food. Worth going with a group to have a fantastic meal

Jhonny Aventura

I like this buffet.. good food and a lot of meat.. i love it

Helen Wu

Love Tofu kimchi the most. Big portion of pork belly, sauce is really spicy and go perfect with rice.

Geoffery Blackwell

Really enjoy their lunch and dinner meals. Always plenty of food to go around.

AJ Boggs

My husband and I went there for dinner. The waitress we had was very attentive and funny. The food was amazing and fresh. A great place for date nights and for group of friends. Will be back soon!

Andrea Goss

One of the only AYCE Korean BBQ places in Austin. Meat quality is good and the sides are good also. Service is very slow and that ends up making them busy! We had to wait 45 minutes to get a table on a weeknight. Once we got a table, we realized that the service was super slow! Overall a good experience.

Tony Harvey

I had the Dolsot Bibimbap and it was super tasty, one of the better sit down meals I've had in a while. If you get the meal I got, I recommend stirring the dish every minute or so, the bowl itself is really hot and will heat the food in it more evenly. I'll come back here again for sure. :)

Kendrea Hamilton

I love this place the staff is friendly and they have an awesome prime rib cut definitely get a table with a grill. For 24.99 a person (for adults) it's worth it, perfect for dinner with friends everyone pays the same no worrying about splitting.

Derrick Stone

korean bbq, mmm, so great. The bill was fair for the quality of the food. If it wasn't far from my work I would come by more.

Francisco Baeza

The meat overall was very tasty but a little wimpy, in size, compared to what I've had at other K-bbq locations. That doesn't mean it wasn't damn good though and size doesn't matter that much when it's all you can eat. Definitely had a good time and would recommend to anyone looking for a new experience or just to get their K-bbq fix.

Called earlier today to confirm if i needed a reservation for a birthday and farewell dinner for two of my best friends and the staff had said that I did not need to make a reservation. Well when I get there they said I needed a reservation and on top of that the empty restaraunt we were told that there was an hour wait!! So for hearing all these great things about this place, I have been greatly dissapointed, and will not ever eat at this place.

Good food. Friendly staff. Love Korean BBQ. Quality is respectable.. All you can eat with plenty of staff is solid. Come here with large groups for company normally. Seating staff always screws us. We make a reservation and get sat 30-45 minutes late. The first time they only gave us thirty minutes of the hour which was not ok for the price.... Second time we just sat for 45 minutes.... No offering of food or drinks, and other large parties showed up and sat before us.... Was annoying.

Food is just soso, service needs much improvement, not very friendly waiters or waitresses.

The environment is nice and the food is good. The prices are not that bad.
