Lots of choices and variety, the service is sometimes horrible and sometimes decent. Do not get the frozen wagyu, it's not worth it. In terms of seating arrangements, can be a bit odd. If you are over 5'11" in a booth configuration you will feel a bit crammed. My knees kept hitting the base of the table. Very convenient for hot pot and Korean bbq at the same time. My wife loves hot pot while I love Korean bbq. It's a win-win. read more

Our first visit to Blazing Kings was fantastic! Laura provided excellent service and made great recommendations that did not disappoint. The boneless short ribs were absolutely delicious--our favorite dish of the night--and the cheesy corn was amazing as well. I highly recommend checking this place out! Thank you, Laura, for your outstanding service--that's what true great customer service looks like! read more

My lovely wife decided spontaneously to visit Blaze King in Palm Desert. Our server Julissa was top notch. Excellent quick service of removing empty plates and dishes, asking for any new orders. Manager Victor greeted and seated us. Took necessary time to explain how to order items. We felt welcomed and definitely will come back. We enjoyed our second time at Blazing King. Thank you Julissa, Victor and all staff members!! The Fischer Family read more

Blazing King - Front: Cajun Shrimps and spicy shrimps Inside of pot: mix of appetizers and main dishes - Barbeque Near Me - Palm Desert, California

This review is mainly for the service, which was extremely slow. There were only five servers for the entire restaurant on a Saturday, and it definitely showed. Our table was missing a set of chopsticks, and although I asked the hostess for them, she never brought them. It also took 15-20 minutes just to get a beer. I asked for napkins as well, had to ask a second time, and finally received them about 45 minutes after I first requested them. Because of the poor service, I would not come back to this place. I will say that the restaurant itself was clean. read more

I loved my experience here! My server definitely made the trip memorable, I believe her name was Azzlyin? Not sure how to spell. She was the sweetest ever and was constantly checking on us! (I'd request her if I was calling in a reservation) My friend recommended this place and I'm so glad He did! I love hotpot and this definitely satisfied my need for it. Such a treat having amazing food, with amazing company, and the sweetest server ever! read more

This is my absolute favorite Korean barbecue place to go out to here in Palm Desert. We love everyone there. They're always super nice food comes out quick unless it's really busy then it takes a little bit, but other than that the quality of the meat is really good whatever you order does not disappoint. I love the fact that they have a bunch of little sides. You can get make your own sauce as well. They always have amazing music playing in the background and at the end of all you can eat barbecue or hot pot if you choose that you get some ice cream to end an amazing time. Thanks guys for always being amazing. read more

Absolutely love this place, their kimchi tastes so good! I wish they offered to sell it to take home, but unfortunately they don't. But that's okay because this KBBQ/Hot Pot is definitely worth coming back to every time! Quality of the food is great, service is always fast, and servers are always friendly! If you're ever craving KBBQ in the Desert, this is the place to go! :) read more

The food was fresh and very good. Super cool you can choose what kind of meat you want, appetizers , rice and you have to try the cucumber salad, They have different sauces you can choose from. You have to go and experience it. After you finish all your food you get a scoop of vanilla strawberry or sherbet ice cream. Manager Victor and staff were super friendly accommodating and on top of it .We definitely will return. Thank you! read more

Blazing King has some decent Korean barbecue with some hot pot but I do think this service could better the waiters there never change the barbecue stove topper and they never refilled the water jar other than that the food itself is what you would expect at a basic barbecue establishment 5 out of 10. read more

Best Kbbq and Hotpot in the desert. Probably the only as well. All the tables have been upgraded to be kbbq and hotpot. Makes it when you're not using the hotpot since it's a flat surface on the table. Very nice setting less smokey with all the vents having an extended vaccum part. Has its own build your sauce bar, grab your own sides, serve you own rice, and even refill your drink as you wish with their serve yourself area. read more

Delicious food and quick service. I enjoyed the hot pot and bbq combo choice for my cousin's birthday. The food came out quickly and our server was very attentive! You also get to enjoy a scoop of ice cream at the end, which was delicious! The meats were sufficient with the lowest tier option, since there were lots of variety of cuts as well as vegetables on the side. The interior was comfortable but it was difficult cooking sometimes with the table shapes. Still overall an amazing deal and delicious! read more

I love this place! The kimchi, cucumbers, yellow radish, beef bulgogi, brisket, hot pot... the list can go on and it's all so good! I always crave this place and always leave satisfied. read more

The reason for the lower stars is because I've been coming here quite a bit and today they are not serving ice cream because of the Coachella crowd and I don't think that's right read more

We were craving this place last minute and we made it an hour and half before close. There weren't many people so we didn't have to wait long. The menu was a bit confusing at first but we figured it out. The server seems a bit annoyed at us when we either didn't speak up or had some accent in our English. But i don't know what's she thinking at the moment. The food was so fresh and there were many options! Overall it was a fun experience!!! The place is huge! The tables were huge so it's harder to talk to your friends, unless you have to talk very loudly for that. read more

Absolutely delicious offering - went premium and enjoyed an endless menu of choices - love my seafood but the Korean classics were so good left full and happy-friendly staff too - I imagine this place gets quite busy! Go off hours to have a more relaxed dining experience read more

We went when they opened, took 18 min to get my first plate 2 corn cheese. They don't even have plates for you what kind of restaurant doesn't have plates. Asked for slices I got shredded slice meat, keep in mind it wasn't busy at all. I asked for a sprite I got a different type of drink with no gas. The stove they keep changing the heating I couldn't enjoy my food my appetite got ruined. We usually get 22 items. We only got 5-7 items this place is the worst. Don't believe me come try it for yourself. The place I recommend everyone is let's gogi Korean Bbq trust me you guys will thank me. My advice for whoever the manager is show your guy how to actually cut slices. "Do they even know what a slice is" that's the saddest part If you think I'm lying tell them to show the video of that day 04/15/26 read more

I've enjoyed coming here in the past, but my last visit was far from pleasant. I came with my sisters and nephew, and we ordered both the BBQ and hot pot. Unfortunately, all the designated tables for hot pot and BBQ were taken, so they set up a portable stove on our table. While I appreciate the effort, the setup was cramped and inconvenient, especially for the additional $5 charge--it just didn't feel worth it. What really stood out, though, was the poor service. Our server neglected us the entire time, and it was by far the worst service we've ever experienced here. I hope this was just an off day for the restaurant, but it's hard to justify returning anytime soon after this experience. read more

The Service was Waitress and so kind and attentive...would totally recommend this place

Overall we had a very good experience. We were greeted right away and also seated pretty quickly after we walked in. The food was tasty and loved the options in sauces and sides. Also the waitress and staff were really nice and friendly. Only issue I have is with the pricing for children, I feel it really should be based on age and not height, we paid full price for our 9 year old because he was 54 inches even though he only ate a little bit of brisket and lots of rice. Definitely would go back as a date night but not with my children. read more

I was craving Korean BBQ during my visit to Cathedral city, I found Blazing and was so happy. The service was great, our server was very attentive and she was friendly. Now onto the food... I didn't really like it. I was looking forward to the banchan and the beef bulgogi is my favorite, unfortunately it fell short for me. The banchan is self serve via buffet and it did not look nor taste good. I was so disappointed with the lack of seasoning on the beef bulgogi. I didn't really eat much but my brother and wife seemed to liked it. I will not be coming back if I'm ever back in the area. read more

My family and I decided to give this place a try since we have been dissatisfied with other local Korean bbq spots. We were so happy with this place. One of our biggest issues at other Korean bbq spots is that they only offer rice once and although we ask for more they never come around to getting us more or even sauces. Here they have a BAR yes I repeat a BAR!!! This bar you can get up and serve yourself anything at any time as well as fountain drinks without having to wait. This was definitely the selling point of us to keep going back when we crave Korean bbq. The food was delicious and the service was great everyone was really friendly and a delight. The place is huge with a lot of seating and for but families as well. We will definitely be back to try the hot pot. read more

Located next to Costco gas station and right next to the I10 freeway. I filled my car up and then, proceeded to fill my belly with delicious Korean soup and bbq. The daikon radish soup is fantastic. The banchan is self serve. Their meat and seafood selection has all the important highlights like bulgogi, chadol, spicy shrimp, spicy calamari, etc. All the meat was high quality. I only wish they opened at 11am instead of noon. read more

I really wanted to like this AYCE Korean BBQ spot, but it ended up being a pretty disappointing experience overall. First off, the meat selection was surprisingly limited for an AYCE place. There weren't many options to choose from, and what they did offer didn't really stand out. Even worse, the marinades were not good at all, poorly seasoned & the meats tasted old. They do have a salad bar, but it's very limited and honestly not much of a redeeming factor. The lettuce didn't even have any dressing, which made it feel unfinished and not very appetizing. Another big letdown was the lack of variety when it came to sides. A good Korean BBQ spot usually offers a range of veggies and banchan, but here it felt very minimal overall. Service was also frustratingly slow. It took forever for the meats to come out, which really kills the whole AYCE experience when you're just sitting there waiting between rounds. Overall, not worth it! read more

I was really excited to finally have hot pot in the valley and was looking forward to trying this place. The food tasted good while we were there. However, later that night all five of us got sick. We were up multiple times with stomach issues and had to miss or leave work the next day. I can't say for sure what caused it, but since it affected all of us, I felt it was important to share our experience. I hope the restaurant looks into their food handling practices because we truly wanted to love this place. read more

Rude cashier and children got charged for adult price!!! Been there many times, food was great but service sometimes were good and many times were disappointing. One time our waitress actually demanded us for another 2 dollars to make it 20% tips but we haven't seen her lately . Another time it was on a busy Sunday, i understand it was busy but the waitress rushed us out when we only had 1 round of meat for the bbq. She asked if we were all good and ready for any ice cream. We then ordered another round of meat but it took over 15-20 to arrive and even came out with the wrong meat. The most disappointing is today, they actually charged 2 children adult price. I know they are half price because we've been here many times and we were even here last week. When we mention it to the cashier, she strongly said she pretty sure they are full price. Then we went to the front to measure and the oldest one is shorter than 52inches, which on the menu stated that 42-54 inches are half price, but she demand full price for her. After that she still wants to try the younger one but she was much shorter than 52inches so she had to do half price for the younger one. We still happily to pay whatever on our bill but for sure won't be back again. read more

I'll give this AYCE a 3.5 Stars! We were vacation at Palm Springs and decided to try out Blazing King all you can eat and it wasn't a disappointment! I like how it has both soup and bbq options, you cannot go wrong with either one. The quality was good and customer service was okay. I feel like we had to pretty much serve ourselves lol. I would like to give you a warning though! The drinks are not part of the AYCE, they will charge you. It would be nice to let us know up front! It's very good overall. read more

This was our first time eating Korean Bbq. We enjoyed it so much that we ate Korean Bbq 3 days in a row at three different restaurants. Blazing King is our current favorite. My 5 year old daughter and I tried octopus for the first time. That was an experience. Our favorite meat was the brisket. The flavor was incredible. I couldn't get enough of the pickled daikon radish. Our only complaints are that we had to ask for water three times before our server brought some out for us, she didn't give us enough water for our party of 6, and this restaurant does auto tipping. One of our requirements for leaving a good tip is that our drinks are refilled in a timely manner. Instead of having the choice to tip based on the service we received, we had to give a required set amount. That's not cool. We'll definitely eat here again if we're ever in the area. It's over 2 hours from where we live. read more

Blazing King - My 5 year old daughter trying octopus for the first time. - Barbeque Near Me - Palm Desert, California

I loved the concept of buffet for the sides, it's convenient so you don't have to wait for anyone to come and bring more sides when you run out but I don't know, after we ate there, my family and I got sick for a couple of days. On top of that, we literally had to flag a worker down to change our bbq pan because it was so smoky and literally blowing in our faces. I understand it's a bbq place but the smoke was bad to where it turned black from us waiting so long for someone to come switch it out. When we asked for more meat, we waited 30 minutes and the lady came twice asking us if we received it and then asked us what our order was. I'm sorry but I'd drive out to Koreana's in Riverside before coming back here even if it's closer. First and last time. read more

I had came here for my brothers graduation dinner and the food was decent AT BEST. When we first came in we were sat down and then my parents had used the rest room and when coming back had stopped by the area to get your sides- we decided to do the one step up from the bottom which was $32.99 per person, when ordering the meats our waitress was rude/pushy trying to rush us ordering our meats. The meats we ordered wasn't the actual cut that they described. The pork belly wasn't even pork belly, it taste like the pork leg it was a little bit chewy. The brisket was a good staple you can never go wrong the beef bulgogi I am personally not a fan but my parents said it was not good, was not very marinated. The squid was good , totally a fan ! The chicken wings were also a hit. I absolutely loved the complimentary ice cream - was such a great sweet treat ! There was quite a few tables sat. Don't think I would be back here unfortunately. read more
