Been here a few times, most recently for my nieces birthday. Food is good and decent price for all you can eat. Location kinda cutty , bottom Floor of indoor shopping center. read more

I thought this place was great. I have not had Korean BBQ in a while so I decided to come here with my friend. For all you can eat I thought the price was pretty good because I ate a lot of food with my friend. The beef bulgogi and the marinated pork tasted really good. They had attentive service because they needed to change the sizzling pan. I thought the environment of the place was pretty decent. We also did not have a problem finding seating. I would day that the condiments could have been a bit better, but other than that I thought this place was pretty good. read more

This place is my go to spot! Me and my partner come here frequently. Service is always great and the staff are just amazing. Love them!! The food and portions are also great! The overall vibe of the place is cozy and feels like I'm eating a family/friends house! read more

I came here on 03/19/2022 for lunch with my cousins. We were exploring Japantown and just so happened to come across this place (who goes to KBBQ in Japantown LOL). Anyway, let me just start by saying the portions for AYCE are HUGE. We ordered all brisket for the first order and was satisfied that (2) plates came out. Little did we know that shortly after another (2) plates also came out. We were so stuffed especially when their sides were so delicious. The kimchee was really good in our opinion. If you're of legal age, I would definitely try their soju cocktail. We opted to do individual cocktails instead of the tower since we had a one hour drive back to San Jose. The next time I'm in Japantown I would definitely come back. The price was very afforable compared to other KBBQ places we've visited. read more

Used to come here on multiple occasions. They have this stupid 2 person minimum policy at their restaurant and this was the first time I didn't bring my friends with me. Despite the fact that I showed up when they opened and the restaurant was empty, they would not seat me. Made the drive to K-Elements where they gladly took my business and money. read more

Dined here for lunch (all you can eat) and we enjoyed it. We selected the bulgogi, bbq chicken, garlic pork belly and spicy pork as our selection. The chicken is very thin so if you're looking for thick thighs you won't find it here. I didn't care for the pork belly as it wasn't very tasty. The bulgogi and spicy pork was thinly sliced so it was easy to chew and marinated well. We didn't order another round of the meats because it was more than enough food. We did get additional rounds of the banchan though. I wish they would add 2 additional banchans to their offerings I'm not a rice eater so one bowl was enough for me as I only ate half of it. I like wrapping my meats in the lettuce. The hostess was very friendly and welcoming. The table service was excellent and they were very attentive at changing the grill which was awesome because it gets charred quickly given the sugar that is in the marinades. read more

Beque BBQ Grill - Banchan to compliment grilled meats - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

We came here for an office party. They stuck us in two big tables near the front. Seriously we don't all need to sit together. We barely fit the tables and only two people near the stove could cook. Banchan was ok. They only refill on demand. Food was good. I didn't care for the pork belly. The amount of fat in that puts bacon to shame. Service was quick. They changed out the metal grate quite frequently. Restaurant is also obviously ventilated because you don't come out smelling like the food. People who ordered the vegetarian dol sot bitched that it was actually more rice than veggies. Seriously you can throw in a few more greens can't you? read more

Beque BBQ Grill - Grilling the meat! - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

See all

We've been coming here for years since it opened! I am finally making a review. I love corn cheese and cheese with my Korean BBQ so definitely happy about this addition to the menu. The Ttekobokki was delicious and the sauce was perfectly sweet and savory. I enjoyed the fish cakes in here, but wish there was more rice cakes. My friend enjoyed this and we literally cleaned the plate. She also doesn't like spicy like me so we requested not spicy. It was still good! For meats we ordered brisket, bulgogi, beef belly, house beef belly, and pork belly. For seafood we decided to go with the garlic shrimp. The house beef belly is seasoned and is sweet, salty, and peppery. The bulgogi was or favorite or course! I love spicy Mayo so happy it was an addition to their side sauces. I love their ponzu like sauce and sesame with salt/pepper oil as well. Great and tasty for filling my meat and rice paper! Their salad was fresh and I loves the dressing on it. We ordered it three times. I wish they still offered their potato salad, but they took it off their menu. Overall I love coming here when in the area or when I have to come into the office for work. read more

Staff was very rude, they seen me come with 6 kids and already can tell they were not happy. The lady asked for paper proving my dog was a service animals and I explained that I had been there before and was never asked for the papers so why are you asking me now because I have more kids with me and I was told it is against the law to ask for documents of proof that he was in fact a service animal. The staff refused to give me there name yet asked me for mines and I could not help but laugh ; you will not give me your name but you want to ask for my name shame on you discrimination to the disabled. read more

TL;DR - for $30 AYCE for dinner in SF I consider this a steal We called to see if our vegetarian friend would be charged $30 too and they said yes, "and they shouldn't come" lol! That was hilarious. We went with him anyway. We ended up not having to pay $30 for him and he was able to get his veggie bibimbap! He said it was very filling. Now for $30 you get to choose between 20 menu items. Perfect for brisket lovers like me. You can even get spicy brisket too! Yum! The shrimp was perfectly marinated and we loved the garlic pork belly too. You won't find specialty cuts here though like beef tongue or ribeye. We got tons of sides - refills of kimchi. And the salad was not half bad. The best thing was their service. Wonderful service all around! read more

We always love coming here. This asian receptionist lady is always accommodating and happy. Price is not cheap but food is really great. They have the mango flavored alcoholic drink and we always get them in a pitcher. It is soooo good. The restaurant is not too big, not too small. But they are always busy. Very convenient location. The only downside is the minimum 2 people to be able to eat in the restaurant. I didn't like that. Hopefully it changes. read more

No frills kbbq for when you want casual with a lil kpop in the background. You're not getting premium cuts of meat here, but honestly the quality isn't bad depending on what you order. Just straight brisket is pretty good along with the pork belly, which is how I like my kbbq, simple and straight to the point, no weird marinades. The kimchi here is perfect IMO, a huge deciding factor in how good a k resto is. The banchans are a slightly above mid, but you're coming here for the bbq not the side dishes. The service was fine, not horrible like other reviewers are saying, the owner is nice. read more

Haven't been here for a while and decided to go there for kbbq. The quality of the meat is just so so but the portions are huge. Very limited selections. The servers is very attentive and the meat comes out fast. Great ambience as the place is hardly crowded and no waiting to be seated. FYI : They close at 10:00PM but last call is at 9PM. Last seating is at 8:30PM. read more

Food is great! We've been coming here for years. Service is excellent they're always busy, but it's nice to go somewhere where they treat you like family. Just make sure you are willing to wait a bit, because it's really busy. read more

There are a lot of rules and restrictions at this Korean restaurant starting with prohibiting solo diners from ordering from the all-you-can-eat menu. Luckily I haven't been eating from a trough lately, so I didn't let the inability to stuff my mouth with a fistful of grilled meat deter me from coming in. I could tell they weren't excited about giving a table to a party of one, but they begrudgingly let me have it as the restaurant started to fill. I noticed right away that all their individual platters serve two people, no exceptions. By the way, they won't supply to-go boxes for anything left uneaten on the all-you-can-eat menu. Go big or go home. They even state in the menu: "All food must be consumed at the restaurant." In fact, if they catch someone eating the all-you-can-eat food who didn't order it to begin with, the freeloader will be automatically charged. If you leave "excessive" food on your plate, you'll be charged for it. I get the economic rationale, but it feels awfully restrictive if your date turns out to be anorexic or at least a picky eater. Well, with all those constraints, I still stuck around and ordered the $5.99 Steamed Dumplings where six came with an order (photo: http://bit.ly/2MeNQ7A). I swear it had the taste of freezer burn as it didn't appear human hands touched them. I also rated receiving four plates of banchan one of which was simply shredded lettuce dunked in a nondescript mirin-tasting dressing (photo: http://bit.ly/2MdN1Ma). My entree was the $12.99 Vegetarian Tofu Soup which I ordered spicy (photo: http://bit.ly/2MMCqEf). While it was indeed spicy, the tongue-burning broth was nothing more than middling in flavor. A return visit seems unlikely unless I bring an undemanding posse. FOOD - 2 stars...my choices were severely limited to the stuff they actually make AMBIANCE - 2.5 stars...appears to have a lot of space SERVICE - 2.5 stars...curt and speed by quickly TOTAL - 2 stars...too many rules for solitary diners RELATED - Looking for other places to eat in Japantown?

Beque is one of my two favorite AYCE KBBQ spots in the city. My favorite menu item is their house beef belly. Hands down one of the best KBBQ meats I've ever had, and tastes SO amazing with rice paper and cheese. Every time I go here, I almost always ONLY eat the house beef belly because it's that good. They also have a great selection of banchan, some of my favorites being the kimchi, japchae, rice paper, and bean sprouts. I've been here many times and never had to wait too long to get a table, even on busy Japantown weekends. As for the service, it is decent. The servers are usually quick to take your order and they come around for grill changes pretty often. I would definitely recommend checking out Beque if you're in the Japantown area and craving KBBQ. Their lunch deals are great too! read more

Is it just me or has the Beque upgraded the meat? *drool* I was a regular at Beque BBQ Grill's Santa Clara location while I lived in South Bay, and I was very excited when Beque decided to open one in San Francisco! I've been to Beque Japan Town a few times, and let's just say the taste of the food wasn't exactly what I had in my memory... However, waking up late and hungry (to the level of getting very close to hangry), I really wanted some meat. I tried to look up "meat" on my Yelp app, and Beque popped into my search. Hmmm, why don't I give Beque a try again? We got there around 2pm and there were zero waits, but the house was full! We were greeted by the staff and got our seats very quickly. If you don't like the smell of the smoke lingering on your cloth... this might not be the place for you. The price for AYCE lunch has increased to $25.99, alas, the inflation... We stuck the menu items in the lunch section and were gladly fed by the options we had. I was surprised that the meat quality has gone up!! Woah, that was good news. We also ordered a bottle of beer and soju, you know, to complete the KBBQ experience ;) Also, can I talk about how amazing the staff was? They were friendly and attentive and kept checking with us with water and changing our burnt plates... yeah, better not get those burnt stuff into my belly. Overall I had a great experience, I would love to come back next time when I crave Korean BBQ :Q read more

Been coming here for at least 5 years now and I love it every time. Perfect if you crave KBBQ. They don't have an extensive menu but if you're just looking for a quick location in Japantown to have some KBBQ for a reasonable price, then they're great. read more

Came here for dinner on a weekend and it is $21 for the AYCE. Everyone in the table has to get it. I've been to different Korean BBQ places in the East Coast and this is my first time in the West Coast. The selection of banchan offered was minimal. There was kimchi, sprouts, japchae, a very sad salad, sliced fish cake, and idk the white block. When you order, they take 4 orders at a time and they all come out for you to cook. One thing I noticed is that in the West Coast, they legit let you cook on your own. In the East Coast, they make sure you are not burning your meat which I really appreciate because sometimes you don't know if the spicy things are cooked because they are red. So the server never came back and changed our grill.....so the other meats after the first order started to burn real bad and the flavors started to all mix together..... I enjoyed the garlic pork belly (the first one we grilled) and the rest was ok (maybe cause the flavors just all were on top of each other tbh). I'm, pretty sure rice was extra if you wanted it which was crazy because it should be included in the AYCE. There were no steamed egg on the side that came with the AYCE and no soup either. They have squid but honestly, it wasn't even flavored or anything. Also the AYCE does not come with the lettuce wrap fixings if you want to make wraps or is that extra if you want it. Not the best Korean BBQ experience. The server barely came and refilled my water so it was ok. I would try another place than Beque. read more

Wanna start off with the fact that the staff is wonderful. Our server was on top of everything and made sure we were good. The actual restaurant isn't bad either. They play a lot of K Pop and it's nice. Their decorations are really cute for Christmas as well. But, my review is a three star due to the food (sort of balanced it out with the great customer service). More specifically, the meat. We ordered the brisket, spicy brisket, pork belly, beef belly, squid, bulgogi, white rice, and corn cheese. The only good thing was the corn cheese and the rice. Their meat is extremely tough and you're chewing for like at least a minute. The pork belly wasn't as bad, but there wasn't really any flavor and I needed the soy sauce and sesame oil to give it any real flavor. Same to the other meat, they didn't really taste like anything. read more

Beque BBQ Grill - On grill: bottom right is "spicy" brisket and top left is regular brisket On plate: pork belly on right beef belly on left - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Now that I've been twice, I can say this is my favorite AYCE kbbq spot in San Francisco. For about $22, you have access to a variety of delicious meats for grilling along with a number of banchan. Knocking one star off since the meat selection is a bit limited, but other than that I have no complaints. Both times that I came (Sunday dinner and Tuesday dinner), the restaurant was never too full. I don't think that many people know about it yet as it did only open up within the last year or so. It is pretty easy to locate, as it is on the first floor of the Japantown mall, in the same area as the Japanese bookstore (Kinokuniya). There's also a sign outside on Post Street. I would recommend coming for dinner, as there are more meat selections for dinner than for lunch. The meat options are: Lunch & Dinner ($15.99 pp): Rib eye beef bulgogi, pork belly, spicy pork, house marinated pork, spicy chicken, bbq chicken Dinner only ($21.99 pp): Spicy rib eye beef bulgogi, brisket, garlic pork belly, shrimp, squid In addition, you can ask for an unlimited number of banchan (no picked daikon though) as well as lettuce, rice, rice paper, garlic, and jalapenos. My favorite meats to order are the bulgogi, non-marinated pork belly (not the garlic pork belly), and the house marinated pork. Note that the order sizes are pretty large, so if you're coming with a smaller group, I would recommend doing half orders. My first time here, there were four of us, and we were starting to feel pretty stuffed after just the first round since we didn't know about the half orders. Each round you can order up to 4 meats. They also have a decent drink selection here with regular soju, flavored soju (both in a bottle and mixed cocktails), beer, and some other korean alcohols I'm not as familiar with. My second time around, we ordered one of their beer towers and that was a fun experience. read more

I thought this place is a pretty good KBBQ spot. It's not great, but it's not terrible. I was slightly underwhelmed with the (dinner) menu. There was nothing special, the options seemed somewhat limited. We found ourselves ordering the same things over and over again. The meat quality seemed fresh and not covered in ice. They don't provide too many banchans and the ones that were given were just ok. However, the one thing I LOVED is that you can order a side of melted cheese and that's something I don't see too often at KBBQ places in the Bay Area! The servers were all very friendly. You order around 4 items with the server and they bring out everything pretty fast. All the tables and grills are spaced out pretty well, so I did not feel too cramped in there. I called to make a reservation beforehand, but it wasn't too busy when I went on a Sunday afternoon. They also have a waitlist option on Yelp, so that's pretty convenient. The restaurant is located in Japantown and parking can be pretty tough around this neighborhood. I highly suggest either taking public transportation or allotting yourself enough time to find parking. I would not go out of my way to eat here again, but would not mind coming back if someone else wanted to try it. read more

$21.99 for all you can eat rubber. The waitstaff and the side dishes are excellent, but I came here to eat meat. At Beque, I will be using the term "meat" loosely. I put a piece of brisket in my mouth and it took me a solid 5 mins + to chew it and swallow. As I was working away on this brisket, I start imagining the poor animal that died for my meal. A rugged old farm cow comes to mind. Years of rigorous field work has given this cow a dense muscular frame. The farmer comes to his weathered cow, the cow gives the farmer one last loving look and sits down for the last time. His time has come. He carts the cow away to make ends meet. I can taste all the tension and fatigue the cow was carrying in every bite of beef here. A dense weaving labyrinth of connective tissue. They give a huge portion of anything you order and most of it is inedible. You have to finish all the meat. I was in meat prison. Save your money and go to any other KBBQ in town. read more

Beque BBQ Grill - a variety of food items - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I went to a birthday dinner a couple weeks ago at Beque. I've actually been to the location in the South Bay, but never the one here in SF. My friend made a reservation prior for about 12 people on Wednesday, August 30th at 6:30pm. All You Can Eat ($21.99): choose 4 meat items per round *Rib Eye Beef Bulgogi *Spicy Bulgogi Beef *Unseasoned Bulgogi *Pork Belly *Garlic Pork Belly *Spicy Pork *House Marinated Pork *Spicy Chicken *BBQ Chicken *Shrimp *Squid *Japchae *Rice Paper *Steamed White Rice *Lettuce Add Ons: one time add ons to boost your AYCE game *Short Ribs ($8) *Tofu Soup: beef, seafood, mushroom ($5) Condiments: *Soy Bean Paste *Korean Hot Sauce *Sriracha *Sesame Oil Dipping Sauce *House Sauce *Soy Sauce *Garlic *Jalapeno *Oyster Sauce Beverage: *Beque Tower: your choice of beer ($25) *Pitcher Beer ($18) *Soju ($9.99) We had a modest selection of banchan: kimchee, japchae, salad, fish cake, and soybean sprouts. I love fish cake, so I'm glad they had that one. Since we could only order four meats at once, we started with the pork belly, spicy bulgogi beef, rib eye beef bulgogi, and the spicy pork. Make sure to ask for garlic, jalapenos, and lettuce if you want to make lettuce wraps. The meat quality itself was pretty good, though the grill did get sticky fairly easily. We decided to add the kalbi and the tofu soup. I believe the kalbi is charged per additional plate, so if you get two plates, it's $8 per plate, not per person. For the beer, I can't recall if we had OB or Hite for the tower, but it lasted the majority of the dinner. We added a pitcher of OB towards the end of dinner which ended up being a 1.6 liter bottle. Great, cheaper option for Korean BBQ. The AYCE doesn't include kalbi, but if you have a huge group, it's nice that it's only an extra $8 per plate if you want to try everything else. I'll probably be back when the Korean barbecue craving hits. read more

I was so disappointed by our visit here to Beque. The menu looked good online until we arrived and realized most of the meats are only available at dinner time. We were seated in the corner which is nice for us, but bad for service. There were three servers throughout the restaurant and two of them gave us attitude when we wanted to add-on brisket, or would ignore us when we tried to flag someone down. One of the servers was super nice and asked how everything was and even gave us water refills, so 5 stars to her!! As for the food, the bulgogi and marinated pork were both pretty yummy. The pork belly was dry to me but the spicy pork was good as long as you don't overcook it. We had to add on brisket for $3/plate since it wasn't dinner time. It was a good amount but if you know your brisket, it's thinly sliced so you need twice as much to get full. I liked the dipping sauce available on the table but unfortunately our bottle was almost empty. The side dishes are pretty limited to your typical suspects: kimchi, bean sprouts, fish cake, salad (it was chopped lettuce with soy sauce..), and japchae. At least they had my favorite: rice paper! Maybe they have more sides available at dinner time... Three stars for a subpar meal and nearly nonexistent customer service. At least the lunch price was much cheaper at $15.99, but I'd rather pay the extra few dollars for a much better meal. read more

Honestly it's a bit pricey for the amount of food they give you+the quality of the food, as well. I came with another person and the meat was tough and chewy, the marinade was okay. We liked the sides more than the meat itself, but for some reason after we ate here our stomachs were so bloated and hurt more than anyone could imagine! We hadn't eaten anything bad/heavy before we came here...and we don't know if anyone has had the same problem either. read more

Beque BBQ Grill - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I don't know why I continue to go to all you can eat BBQ in the bay. So much hype I decided to give this one a go, because all my friends love Korean BBQ. The prices are okay, you can choose a cheaper price, or expensive price for different cuts of meat. Really they are all the same. It's all about the sides and sauce. This place is really packed, and I'm not into cooking for myself when it's $20/ person. I don't think I even eat my money's worth. It is however, a good place to socialize. I just didn't like this particular place and I don't plan on coming again. read more

$22 for AYCE dinner includes unlimited sides with compared to someone who has frequent Gens Korean BBQ the highlights are the: -Kimchi -noodle size dish -beef bugogi -garlic pork belly -cajun shrimp The sides taste more authentic and fresh. The meats with the flavors were well seasoned and if you are a larger party the portions are huge. If you are just trying things out please ask them to do smaller portions or you will get full faster. Service was good. The server was great about getting our requests done fairly quickly and changing our grill before it burned too much. I would come back and do the AYCE maybe for lunch at $16.99 read more

I visited Beque with 2 of my friends for dinner. We were intrigued by the good reviews, large dinner menu, and cheap price of only $22 for AYCE Korean BBQ dinner. Our favorites were the beef bulgogi, pork belly, and marinated pork! The marinated pork was probably my favorite because it was a lot more tender than I thought it would be! I also enjoyed the lettuce wraps, rice wraps, salad (though I wish it was in a bigger bowl), fish cake and bean sprouts as sides or banchan. Even though they give you sesame oil/salt and the fermented bean sauce, be sure to ask for their house dipping sauce on the side! It's pretty flavorful and a little spicy. It's also the same sauce they use to dress the salad. Beque also offers garlic and jalapenos to cook with your meat. Service was okay. The restaurant was pretty busy so I can understand why the 3 servers working were having a hard time, but shouldn't they just hire more servers? Sometimes it would take a while to refill our water (and you know water is a necessity when eating kbbq!). However, it is a really good price for both lunch ($16) and dinner ($22) so I would be willing to come again if i'm ever feeling extra carnivorous! read more

Beque BBQ Grill - Pork belly & sides - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Im just going to say... don't come here. I wanted to give this place at least two or three stars. I'll start with the side dishes. Everything minus the kimchee and salad was salty. There's not much more to say that that. I first ordered the brisket and spicy pork. Brisket was completely frozen and hard as rock. After I cooked it, it was dry and super chewy. The spicy pork was okay. Not great, but at least edible. My second order was the beef bulgogi, shrimp, and squid. The bulgogi was not what I expected. It was basically the brisket cut thick and marinated. But compared to the frozen brisket, it was edible. The shrimp and squid was mediocre. ***The last thing I ordered was the pork belly. Pork belly is usually pretty good at Korean bbq's because it's not marinated and it's just a piece of meat. BUT this pork belly had hair on it!!! And when I told the waitress she said oh it's probably just the company they got it from. Instead of apologizing and offering me another plate, which tbh I would've refused anyway, she told me to cut that part off..!!! What the heck?! I immediately asked for the check and left. Staff wasn't friendly. The hostess was nice. The food is not good at all. I definitely wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. All I can really say is if you do decide to come to this place, make sure to check the meats before you cook and eat it. read more

Beque BBQ Grill - Hair on my pork belly. (They told me to cut it off instead of apologizing or offering another plate) - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

The food is okay but a bit expensive. All you can eat is just meat and nothing else really unless you get the more expensive meal. Haven't been back in years but that's what I remember about this location. Not sure how they stay on business. read more

Got here around 7:30pm on a Saturday night, had to wait 30-40min to get a table for two. They definitely need to hire more employees - with the entire place filled, the servers seemed flustered. They were nice/attentive, but it was obvious they were in need of more help. Regardless, they got us all of our meat in an orderly time and changed our grills pretty often! The owner also walked around asking if everything was alright, so I appreciated the good service. AYCE Menu ($15.99 for lunch, $21.99 for dinner) - They have a decent number of marinated options, but don't go here if you only want unmarinated - you have to pay extra ($5-$8 a plate) for short ribs/brisket. Food - My favorites were Spicy Pork and Rib-Eye Beef Bulgogi. The pork wasn't spicy (actually none of the items that stated spicy were actually spicy), but it was flavorful. We tried most of the items on the menu - spicy bulgogi beef was not spicy/flavorful, house marinated pork/BBQ chicken did not taste like BBQ or seasoning, shrimp were pretty small and very hard to peel (not sure if due to quality?). Condiments - They give you two sauces initially (can't remember the exact names), but there are also additional condiments that you can order. We tried the Korean hot sauce and House sauce - didn't really enjoy any of them. I think a good sauce is essential, so I was disappointed with the options. Based on the food, I might give 3 stars. My reason for 2 stars is that there's a sign in the front stating they won't seat people if they come as a party of 1... so that's basically saying that if you want to eat here by yourself, they refuse to serve you?! I get that they want to maximize the number of people they can serve at each grill, but I've never seen a place actually say they won't seat you for that reason. I did see someone dining by themselves, so maybe they make exceptions when not as busy or don't enforce that rule? but then why even have that sign in the first place? Seems pretty unwelcoming. Overall, I might come here again if a group of friends really wanted to... but I think there are other KBBQ options in the area that I'll try out first. read more

Wow! I just moved to SF recently and coming from socal, the one thing I miss the most is KBBQ! Where are all the spots here!?!? I welcome all recommendations lol When I saw this place i was really excited. I went on a friday night so it was crowded and there was a 30 minute wait which I already expected for a weekend. We got seated in a booth with awkward seating around the table. A little too far to sit comfortably. I had to sit on the edge of my seat. Let's start with price. Nearly $30 for a small AYCE menu. I tried all the sides which were fine, had cheese corn which I liked. The bulgolgi was decent. The spicy bulgolgi wasn't much different. But DO NOT get the brisket. It was way too chewy and tough. I had to chew it for a couple minutes and then gave up! The rest of my party agreed. I was dissapointed. The bulgolgi was tender though, I'd reccomend this if you don't have anywhere else to go. The service took a while as expected for a week night and the staff was friendly, but the food was a definite miss :( read more

This place is a pretty good spot if you just want a quick kbbq with friends. I won't say it's my favorite but I won't say it's my least favorite as well. I feel like if you cook yourself, you can tell the quality of meat or products you use and I can definitely tell most of their meat is not as fresh as I would like them to be. Im not disappointed, it's just what it is. I'm not picky but I do enjoy my kbbq a little fresher on the side since I'm the one preparing it. read more

3.75 There's not a lot of options for KBBQ in SF so when you get invited to try a new joint, you shrug and accept the invitation. I didn't have any expectations coming here, I was just excited for some meat. We did the AYCE, of course, which was reasonably priced at $21.99/pp. For the meats, we got the spicy pork, bulgogi, pork belly, and kalbi (extra charge). Our favorite were the bulgogi and pork belly. Make sure you ask for the chili and oil sauce for the pork belly as it tastes a little bland. If you're in the mood for KBBQ, this place is decent but I would suggest making the drive out to Oakland for something worth your monies. The servers are very friendly and attentive. read more
