Blue House Korean BBQ - AYCE delicious as usual. - Korean Near Me - Vacaville, California

I love Blue House! They have a wide assortment of meats and appetizers and I just keep on coming back. The loyalty program is also great, and I've scored free meals a couple times already. I love that it's in a nice area in Vacaville so I can walk off the food right after. The customer service is great depending on how busy it is. read more

Blue House Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Vacaville, California

We celebrated an early Mother's Day at this welcoming, Korean BBQ and had a wonderful experience! Upon arrival to the spacious parking lot, we could smell the delicious meats immediately, beckoning us to come inside... We went with the Option A all-you-can-eat, which seemed to have more than enough selections of meat to gorge upon. Our favorite was the thin cut pork belly. The restaurant was expansive with lots of tables and different seating areas. Our servers were also great, changing our grill frequently. Overall, a solid AYCE location, and we would be glad to come back! read more

WORST KBBQ EVER. Staff was friendly, but extremely slow and not attentive. We had to follow up on each of our orders due to either receiving the wrong item or never getting the order altogether, causing us to wait constantly. The burner also shut off 3 different times, one time by our waiter but other times randomly which added to more wasted time. Out of the 2 hour time limit, Id estimate less than half that time was actually dedicated to eating. We were waiting & following up for majority of the dinner. The food was below subpar quality. My family couldnt eat the "premium beef" it "angus brisket" because it was so dry/tough. Seafood tofu soup lacked flavor and steamed egg was watery. The list goes on but most of the items were gross. I hardly ate because nothing tasted good. The most consistent item was the sliced garlic. Lastly, they shouldve installed directly fans above each table but they have the fans high in the ceiling, making the air smoky and the place extra loud. Heavily disappointed as I heard good things about this chain. Save your money and go anywhere else. read more

Blue House Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Vacaville, California

Very disappointing experience. From the moment we sat down, our server, Rowena, seemed annoyed and acted like she didn't want to be there. We asked multiple times for a grill change, but after waiting over 30 minutes and finishing just one round of orders, we gave up and decided to leave. Getting the check was another ordeal--we waited about 20 more minutes, and eventually I had to walk up to the host stand just to pay. We ended up spending about $100 for a single round of meat and a few appetizers before deciding it wasn't worth waiting any longer. I understand restaurants get busy, but basic communication and attentiveness go a long way. Unfortunately, the service was so poor that it completely ruined the experience for us. read more

We came here for dinner and had a great experience. The restaurant is very spacious, with dedicated areas for karaoke and larger group gatherings. During dinner service, Option A offers an excellent selection of appetizers and meats. Our favorites were the soy garlic beef belly, butter shrimp, and LA galbi--we ended up ordering those every round. The spicy Korean ramen was also tasty. The service was outstanding as well. Everything we ordered arrived promptly, and our server was friendly, attentive, and happy to accommodate additional requests throughout the meal. Overall, it was a good dining experience, and we'd definitely come back if we were in the area and want bbq. read more

Had dinner here last night. The restaurant is super spacious with an abundance of seating! Booths and tables everywhere it's actually pretty neat and esthetic looking. It's an ayce Korean bbq. I love that concept lol. There were an array of bonchon they start you with and then you pick the menu you would like to dine. We picked the A menu.. it included a lot of good stuff. Service was awesome. Our waitress was very attentive. She made sure that when our orders came out to come check and place the next order right away and our grill was constantly replaced as it would char up. Everything I ate was delicious. My fav meat was the soy garlic beef belly and I love the butter shrimp .. all dipped in their pineapple sauce they have on the menu as well. Overall I would definitely be back when craving Korean bbq read more

We did it, and completed the trifecta. We got to visit all three of the Blue House locations. Pre-completion of the renovation of the OG location, so this one is easily the most modern and nicest of the three so far. More open feeling setting, and some cool features like the karaoke room for reservation and elevated middle section. Blue House did a good job with the design. I enjoyed the vibes, and the staff really was great. Constantly checking in, making sure we were good or ready for a next round, and more made this experience great. Blue House tasted solid, and I would absolutely make a return trip if wanting KBBQ in Vacaville. read more

I've been to other locations for blue house before and always enjoyed my visits. This Vacaville location is a first visit for me and it's roomier and better airflow I felt. The server was really great sorry I wasn't ordering much my table mates did that and I didn't get her name but she was great. The food we always enjoy the garlic soy beef belly, boneless Galbi, and a bunch of other selections. We usually stick with beef but we do like their banchan selections. Spicy ramen is pretty common ramen but the way they cooked it was solid, some people put way too much water to cook. The potato is great, the pickled daikon is a must and broccoli is a solid choice too. The server gave us a bunch of refilled for these. The only drawback this time for me was the chicken wings. Plain really meant plain, no salt or any flavorings. The wings weren't freshly fried so they were rubbery and room temp. I think fresh with some Cajun seasoning maybe would be a hit . If I'm in Vacaville and craving Korean bbq I'd for sure revisit. read more

Saying I love korean bbq is an understatement. So when I found out this is where we were going for my bachelorette party dinner I was ecstatic. I wanted to order so much but I got so full. The food is so good and the place feels intimate for being so open. The pork belly is by bar my absolute favorite, and not pictured is a cherry blossom type of drink that they gave us and oh my goodness if I could remember what it was called, I would order it every time I go. The service was so fast and I love the little robot that brings us our meat. read more

Writing this review for an experience my family and I had on Mother's Day. I believe this was not anyone's fault, but rather a tech glitch. However, I believe the situation was poorly handled. Living an hour away from Blue House, I added myself on the Yelp waitlist for a party of 7. I told my brother to also join the waitlist just in case. When we got to the restaurant, we just waited outside since our "expected time" still says 20 min. However, I noticed that the expected time was not moving. So I went inside to talk to the host and ask about our wait. The host then asked if I have a reservation, and I mentioned joining the waitlist. I even pointed at their iPad where I see my name. He was puzzled because apparently, I am not supposed to be able to make a reservation or join the waitlist today since they are fully booked. He said that unfortunately, they will not be able to accommodate us because they are fully booked. He proceeded by removing my name off the waitlist and telling us to wait 3 hours for our seat. I asked him about the Yelp waitlist on their iPad. "Are you just going to ignore that?" but he didn't bother answering. I understand that this is frustrating on his end too, especially on an extremely busy day, but it just sucks to have driven an hour for our name to be removed from the waitlist without having a proper explanation whatsoever. I went back to the car and my brother, who have joined the waitlist too, was next in line on the "Yelp waitlist". He went inside and the host said the same thing, but before the host was able to proceed in removing my brother's name, my brother asked for the manager. (we never do this - this is probably the first time ever). The host quickly talked to his manager and the manager was able to accommodate us a table right at the moment. After all of that chaos, the rest of our experience was extremely pleasant. Our server was fantastic. Everyone assisting the tables, whether it was the staff bringing the food or the grill changers, were amazing. Food was great of course - never have disappointed from the handful of times my family and I have visited. The host definitely deserves a 1 star, but our actual dining experience was an easy 5 star rating. read more

Blue House Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Vacaville, California

Good Korean barbecue and good drinks! Went here for the first time and was so pleasantly surprised. Been to a couple KBBQ and this was just as good as a lot of places! It is a little more on the pricier side though so keep that in mind. You do get a lot of options for the price but depending on the option you choose it can be pricey With that being said the quality of the meet and food overall was very good! And they have proper steaks which I don't see often at KBBQ. The short rib was well marinated and had a lot of flavor and the appetizers were very good like the fried chicken! The side salad had a great sauce over it and all the kimchi dishes were great! They offer a pretty customizable drink menu, if that's something you're interested in, the slushie options is nice and refreshing for a hot summer day! Along with refreshing flavors! The restaurant itself is pretty big and has a really cool interior! They have a full bar in the entrance and lots of seating further in! They have robots that bring you your drinks and/or whatever you order like meats and such! Super cool The staff is very nice and our waiter was really attentive and on top of it for getting more orders in! All in all pretty unique kbbq and fun experience Good food! Good drinks! Nice people! Definitely worth checking out read more

This is currently my favorite Blue House (still waiting to compare against the Sacramento location post-renovations). Staff was very attentive and welcoming, checking in often to ensure we had enough meat options, drinks, and appetizers. The location is large, with plenty of seating for small and large groups. They also have a couple of rooms for karaoke that can be rented out, which would be like a fun event. read more

We came in on a Friday evening around 5:30pm with a party of 7 to celebrate 3 May birthdays. We had a reservation for 5:30, but we still had to wait about 15 minutes for the staff to set up a table as we were considered a large group. For AYCE Korean BBQ, there are 3 choices: A ($38/adult), B ($48/adult) or C ($108/adult). We chose option B which had plenty of choices to eat as it also includes all the option A items. They were having a Cinco de Mayo drink deal where a handful of their alcoholic drinks were 1/2 off today (May 1 to May 5). I got the Mangolicious alcoholic drink which is inspired by the Mexican mangonada. They drinks were not too strong, but they were 1/2 off. They have a 2 hour eating limit, but I don't think they are strict about enforcing that unless you really stay there much longer. There is an automatic 18% gratuity added to your bill for parties 7 or more. Our server was pretty attentive overall. In Vacaville/Fairfield area, Blue House Korean BBQ is one of the better AYCE restaurant, but there are better Korean BBQ restaurants in Sacramento and the East Bay. In the past for birthdays, they would let you spin the birthday wheel, but they didn't offer that to us. The server did offer to give the 3 birthday celebrants a hefty slice of cheesecake each which was nice. If you are a big eater, meat lover and enjoy Korean BBQ, give Blue House a try. read more

Decided to bring the kids to kbbq after we went to skyzone since they were hungry after playing and it was a fun spring break treat. We were seated fairly quickly which I appreciate when eating out with the kids! Some of the service items took a little while to get or didn't come at all. Their brisket was a bit hard to chew/was on the tougher side, but the Hawaiian steak was so good! There's a wide variety of items to choose from and different menus to choose from based on which plan you choose. I wish I was able to eat more but we just got so full! read more

Always love coming to Blue House for AYCE KBBQ! The servers are so friendly, and we keep coming back because they make us feel so welcome. You can choose between AYCE options A, B, or C depending on what you're in the mood for (just note everyone at the table has to pick the same option). We've come for both lunch and dinner, and the wait and service can vary depending on the time you go, but it's always a great experience! When the wait is long, we like to grab a seat at the bar and order a drink or two. The bartenders are always really nice and welcoming--they take the time to talk with you and get to know what you like to drink. We even tried soju bombs, which were really tasty! There's also plenty of seating, and they even have a robot that helps deliver some of your order, which is pretty cool. One small downside is that sometimes people may not know which shelf to grab their meat from and might accidentally take yours--but it's totally fine, and you can always let your server know. There's also a button at your table you can press if you need anything, and a server will check in with you. Blue House has definitely become one of our go to spots to eat when we have a craving for KBBQ! read more

Terrible service!!! Went on a Monday night for all you can eat KBBQ, only to receive terrible service. I had to remind my waiter, Kevin, 3 different times for 2 bowls of rice. I ordered two appetizers which never came, even after reminding the waiter of them twice. Additionally, the robot which carries all of the meat to your table arrived to my table empty, twice! Would not recommend, unless you like waiting 25 minutes to order another round of meat and forgetful waiters. read more

Came in for lunch with two of friends. We were seated immediately by the host who was nice and welcoming. The floor plan offered different seating space including private rooms including a few room that offered kareoke :) Price per person was decent. The menu offers an upgrade for a higher price tag. $30 to $100 per person Our server Omar was excellent, attentive despite the many table he was servicing to and pure pleasant at each encounter. We liked his professionalism and service with a smile. Items we ordered came out fast Seafood soup could have used more seafood but overall great experience. Will come again. read more

Pretty good Kbbq! Went for my niece's 100 days celebration and they set us up in their private party room. Spacious space with attentive service and an impressive menu. I did option A and got several tasty cuts of meats including brisket, short ribs, chicken with some cheesy corn ramen, veggie bibimbap, egg rolls. A few gaps- the miso soup was overly salty, fried chicken wasn't that good but to be fair, you don't really come for that. Wish they had the vent tubes over each grill like in the Kbbq in Korea! You will def leave smelling like bbq- make sure you wear clothes you plan to wash right away and take a shower after! read more

Had a great experience at Blue House Korean BBQ. The quality of the food was really good and everything tasted fresh. I also loved the setup of the inside -- it's a really nice space, even though I forgot to grab a photo. Service was pretty good, and they even have robot servers on the main floor which was pretty cool to see. For the price, it felt very reasonable for what you get. Overall I really enjoyed it and would definitely come back. read more

Your quality of service is really going to depend on what time of day you go and the server you get- my family and I have been 3 different times and have had a varying level of service from excellent to decent. We've tried just about everything on the A menu and it's really not bad-pretty typical for a KBBQ place. The chicken wings however are bomb! The fries really lacked salt and the japchea was so salty I couldn't eat it. Overall it's a good time, especially if you're new to how KBBQ works and what meats you already like. read more

Been meaning to write a review for this place just because of how pro-active they are with customer service. I've been sat down at a table and realized it could use another wipe-down, it was not made to be a big deal but someone from management took the time to make our stay better. Also ordered delivery from this place once and I had to call in a missing item, the store not only offered to make sure I got another delivery for the missing item, someone from the store went above and beyond and delivered the item themselves and apologized. Management has been a class act and hope they recognize that it makes a difference. I've been back a few times since and it's always been great. I do wish they would reconsider the recipe for their bingsu though, it's not part of the buffet but it's the only thing I've gotten here that I thought was a miss. read more

This is my updated review for Blue House. I've been to Blue House about 3 more times after my last review. They have 3 AYCE dinner options (Option A, B and C). I usually go with option A or B, depending on how I'm feeling. I'm glad to report that they did update the size of the rice paper. It's standard size for most kbbq places now. Last few times my favorite meat has been the Beef Belly in the Garlic Soy Sauce. Mmmm, so good ! I highly recommend trying the Mool Naengmyum which is the cold noodle. I find this to be so refreshing and also offer a good balance when eating all these emats. Keep in mind, the cold noodle is only offered with Option B. I still very much love their Pineapple Sauce, so if you haven't had it, definitely try it out ! I haven't experienced any issues with service since I've been here. They have a cute robot that delivers some of the food. There's also a call button on each table if you do need assistance, but honestly I havent had to use it. read more

Simply great! Their chicken wings could have been better, but ok. Absolutely love their brisket! The robot delivery is cool as well.

So far my favorite kbbq spot for AYCE. Staff are super friendly and make sure that you have a good experience, they will explain to you how their menu works if you haven't dined with them before. The meats are fresh and high quality. A bunch of sides that you can choose from and they even bring you some of your order from a robot. I come out feeling satisfied and always have a good time here. Restaurant is clean as well. read more

Whenever I need a late bite to eat and catch up. I love their late night happy hour! I always order the spicy pork fries. A couple of retried on the as they keep on over cooking it. Towards the end we ordered something else. The fried calamari was good! The bulgogi slider was not worth it. More bread than it is meat. Probably go to Bj late night happy hour for slider. Towards the end they offered us free due to the wait and they made it right. Service was great! Ask first on how much shots of tequila cost. 2 shots of tequila was $40 added to our bill. Ambiance it niece and chill at the bar area:) Shoju was the way to gooo! read more

Blue House Korean BBQ - Spicy pork , Happy hour! - Korean Near Me - Vacaville, California

First time at Blue House and it was a hit! Made reservations for a big party of 14 on a Saturday afternoon. Took about 15-20 minutes for them to prepare the tables. Once seated, our order was taken promptly and things got rolling. Food came out fast via servers & the cat robot. Our waitress was patient and attentive the whole time. All of the meats were juicy and high quality. Ordered brisket, ribeye, seasoned steak, bone-in and no bone galbi, soy garlic thin pork belly and bulgogi. Pretty much all meats hit the spot with all being juicy and tender. The ultimate standouts were the galbi and thin pork belly. We ordered a handful of appetizers too. Lychee martini - 4.5/5 - really sweet, in a good and dangerous way. Korean fried chicken - 2/5 - dry and a little cold. The soy garlic sauce saved it. Beef dumplings - 3.5/5 - crispy fried, subtle flavor. Corn cheese - 3/5 - served in a skillet dish, although was not hot enough for a cheese pull. Still good flavor. Steamed egg - 3/5 - generous portion and served warm. Very gelatinous, not like other steamed egg. Flavor was there when mixed with rice and meat. Kimchi soup - 4/5 - served piping hot and was bursting with flavor! Really enjoyed eating this along with rice and meat. Would get again for sure. Had an overall great time, with it being the best kbbq experience I've had in awhile! read more

We tried this KBBQ before in Roseville, and we loved it! Now that they have opened a location in Vacaville, we don't have to drive that far. The interior is nice, clean, and well-maintained. Food is excellent, and the meat is seasoned very well. Service is good, slow at times when it's rush hour, other than that, it's still a great service. This is now our go-to KBBQ fix! I definitely recommend joining the waitlist through the Yelp app if you're able to. They have ample parking, and it's located across from Sam's Club. read more

Been going here for a while now, and it has became our fav Korean bbq spot! You can rsvp on Yelp, really helpful if you have a big party! The restaurant is a good size, really great decor. Parking is also not a problem, lots of parking. Now on to the food! There's three different options- A to C, and C is the premium. The sides were great, I love radish, kimchi, and pickled veggies! Appetizers we tried, the Seafood Soup, Corn Cheese, Korean Fried Chicken, Buldak, and Ramen. Option A has our fav- Beef Belly, Brisket, Bulgogi, Pork Belly, Buttered Shrimp. You can bring your receipt and rack up points on Toast app, but you have to make sure the front desk adds it for you. I have made enough points to get option C! We will be back! read more

*10/10 CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM KOA!* If you go here, request to be seated where Koa is because he is friendly, listens, and meets every request quickly! Excellent and quick service at an ayce restaurant is super rare but Koa's service was AWESOME! Also, the rest of the team was kind and helpful as well. The DINNER AYCE is a DEAL! For $38 per head, you get: (1) MANY FRESH AND TASTY BANCHAN (more than other local places and others with higher prices! ); (2) A HUGE SELECTION OF APPETIZERS (my favorites were the soul satisfying spicy KIMCHEE SOUP, CORN CHEESE, and SESAME BALLS that were fresh! I liked these as my desert hahaha); (3) The LETTUCE WRAPS that are an additional cost but automatically come with soy bean paste, sliced fresh jalapeños, and thinly sliced garlic to make that lettuce wrap bite perfect!; (4) BIG SELECTION OF MEAT such as the drool worthy BUTTER SHRIMP, THIN CUT PORK BELLY, BEEF BULGOGI, BONELESS L.A. GALBI, and so much more!; and finally (5) This SPECIAL BUTTER DIP! WOW!!! Just wow! And the above is the starter version! There are other ayce options too which cost more but for the beginning one at $38/head, I was super impressed, got my Korean bbq craving fix, and left full! The place itself is very spacious and clean! A great place to be with friends and/or family! I'll be back with my family! *Evidence of quick service from everyone is my lack of pictures! After a few minutes after I ordered, a big bowl of bulgogi was given to me to start grilling! I had to go in! Especially, with the banchans looking super delicious! read more

We made a reservation here two weeks ago. We waited for half an hour before we were finally seated. Our server, Lala, was rude. First, I was charged an 18% service fee, which I didn't mind paying. However, our tip still came out to nearly $100. Despite the service charge, the server remained unfriendly and unprofessional. We often come here to celebrate family gatherings, but Lala seemed to criticize everyone. She appeared annoyed to serve us and tried to rush us out. We had two warmers at the table, but she told us to use only one. There were about 10 people at our table--how did she expect us all to eat with just one warmer? She was not friendly at all and did not seem happy with her job. It felt like she only cared about collecting a higher tip, even though the service did not reflect that. The food was great! The service Sucks! read more

This place is awesome! I hadn't been to a Korean bbq so I didn't know what to expect. We sat down and were given options for what menus we could order. The customer service was amazing. The food came super fast and cooking at our pace was fun! Everything was seasoned so well and the robot brought an fun element that I was not expecting! I will definitely be back! It was priced well and they offer specials for kids during the week. I love that it's family friendly and you can hear each other talking too! The atmosphere is very calm and inviting. read more

Blue House Korean BBQ - Option B - Korean Near Me - Vacaville, California

Since this location is so very new still, I wanted to concentrate on the AYCE menus options. We chose option 2 for $48 a person. They gave us 2 appetizers and 3 entrees per order. I understand that part I'm assuming it would be the same if I was alone but they don't want you to each have your own choice then share 4 appetizers and 6 entrees. That being said, each option we receive was such a lot of food for an AYCE. We dug deep in order to get a second order of food. When it comes to AYCE, they should give smaller options so you can try multiple items on the menu. There's so much to choose from and we could only finish 3 appetizers and 5 entrees. My pictures show our first orders. We ordered beef bulgogi (so good) but there were still more portions in the bowl after putting a heaping pile on the grill. The shrimp was amazing but remember to season it. They don't add anything that what the condiments on the table are for. Rib eye was also delightful. My other issue was the size of the plate they give you to eat your meal off of. It was so small I took a picture of it compared to the teaspoon they give you. It was hard to not make a mess from the food falling off the plate. PRESS THE BUTTON AT YOUR TABLE FOR SERVICE. The restaurant was lovely but do wear a windbreaker or something to cover your close and cover your hair unless you want to smell like grease. Sadly, Korean buffets are very difficult to get enough ventilation to prevent the smell from getting on you, not their fault. The staff were very friendly and removed our plates promptly. Hope you come hungry if you get the AYCE, because you're gonna need it. read more
