Came in here by myself 10p-12:15am , and left SUPER satisfied from the 2-hour ALL YOU CAN EAT. The Skewer is great but limited to 1 per person. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely worth the trip and the vibe is great whether you come alone or with a group.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Let's go deeper; I wish they had table tablets or at LEAST a physical menu for people to order from! The servers come, take and put in orders on the tablets and that takes time away if you're not familiar with the place or Korean BBQ in general (like me lol!). It picked up while i was there and i still think that would improve the service. And the TO-GO box is +$20 so don't over order TAKE NOTE there is an automatic gratuity or 7.5% or 7.8% so be aware and the fountain drinks are $4 cans and NO REFILLS !!! unless you go for cocktails definitely check the menu first before ordering !!! The videos speak for themselves! Also I am a newbie to reviewing; and i was a bit annoyed after being sat by the host because no one told me the menus were QR codes until after they checked on everyone around, they asked if i was ready to order and i asked "where is the menu". Not a big deal since i stayed later than midnight and they checked on me much more after letting them know it's my first time!! My server was Bebe and I'll be back to this location because the food really is so good. read more

Epic Korean BBQ grilled table-side; calling all carnivores!! All you can eat all week is now available. You can also do A La Carte and order a few meats at a time. Go to: 1. Sliced beef brisket. 2. Pork belt thick. Deeeeelish Pass: 1. Pork belly thin sliced. Unless you want bacon. Still ate it but too thin. Complimentary sides even with A La Carte if you order 3 or more meats: 1. Rice 2. Kimchi 3. Mashed potatoes 4. Salad Grilled at your table in front of you. Wait staff or you can grill. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fun fact: this was a bank before. lol. Vault doors at entry. Need to be buzzed in, back in the day. Haha. Kept the financial institution charm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend. They even have happy hour Monday to Friday. Plenty of free parking.

Out of this world delicious. From the moment we walked in, the service was absolutely phenomenal. The staff was incredibly attentive, kind, and genuinely cared about making sure we had an amazing experience. The food was a 10 out of 10. Every bite was flavorful, perfectly cooked, and clearly made with care and quality ingredients. You can truly taste the love and passion behind the food. The owner was amazing and so welcoming, which made the experience even more special. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's rare to find a place where the food, service, and atmosphere all come together so perfectly, but this spot nailed it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will absolutely be back and recommending this place to everyone we know. read more

Iron Pig - Yum and yum - Barbeque Near Me - Berwyn Heights, Maryland

It's okay. The service used to be good, but the last two visits were disappointing. Gratuity is automatically included, which I don't really agree with at a place where you cook your own food, but I understand it. What I don't understand is the poor service. There were only two people in the restaurant, and the server barely checked on us. I gave this place another chance thinking maybe they were just having a bad day, but after today, I won't be back. The food is mediocre at best. read more

I HAD A GREAT TIME, the amount of sides included in the "all you can eat" option is absolutely amazing. I walked out with such a high from the amazing food and service provided by my server Iris! Thank you so much for the attentive service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had such a great first experience, as you enter Iron Pig you are completely transported into a whole new world.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love all the neon decorative I will be back for photos along with great food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Cheese corn, edamame, ramen, soy bean soup, kimchi, etc!

I left with a happy full belly thank you so much for the amazing food and service. read more

100s of times I've driven by this place... I did pop in when they first opened, just to check out the vibe and the menu. This was even before they started serving drinks! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's one of the smaller KBBQ spots that you come across, but definitely a hidden gem (in plain sight).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I have quite a few KBBQ-loving friends, and I'm glad that we planned a weekday night to drop by. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The festive lights outside give it curb appeal, and as soon as you step inside, you feel like you're being transported to a different place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The host podium is straight ahead, and there's a bunch of pictures to the immediate left, hiding that side of the restaurant. I later came to learn that this is a birthday photo wall. How cool is that?? I was happily greeted, and it wasn't crowded, so there was no wait time to get seated. I believe they only take reservations for parties of 5 or more now. Each table has one QR code that goes to the menu. Since it's only on the corner, I think it could benefit from being on multiple corners to folks already sitting down don't have to reach. They have a la carte and two all you can eat menus: A and B. A is their lunch special that's only available on weekdays during lunch hours, and B is available at all other times. Unsurprisingly, B has more options and is more expensive, and for now, you can do all you can drink beer for an additional $10. Personally, it's not for me because beer is filling, and all you can eat is enough, haha. Speaking of drinks, they have a full bar, and do happy hour! I believe it's all day on Sunday too. Sunday funday is real, huh? They have a nice selection of mocktails too -- they all seem pretty sweet though. So back to the food, we went through most of it... Including brisket, bulgogi (a fav), spicy bulgogi, NY steak (another fav), galbi pork... chicken skewer, thin-sliced pork belly, and more. We got the usual banchan items like sesame salad, spicy cucumber, kimchi, etc... I loved the steamed egg. The corn cheese, not so much... But mainly because I let it get cold and it got really hard. Otherwise, I appreciated that they left a pitcher of water that we could refill to our liking. To top it off, my friend got wine and it was quite the spectacle -- I won't say anything beyond that, but you'll have to see for yourself. I also enjoyed how regularly we were checked on. I have no idea what they're like at peak time, but this is a great KBBQ option, especially right near my house. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The music was on point too![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] $36.99 might be a little expensive compared to some others, but to be so close to home I honestly can't complain. read more

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE... food and service was so disappointing. The brisket literally turned into crumbs as it was being cooked. It looked like dog food. The bulgogi and galbi had the weirdest flavor. Did not taste normal. On top of all of that, the server leaned over our table and dropped sauce all over my husband. The server didn't even acknowledge it or say sorry. He just stared. I don't even leave reviews but this place ruined my entire day. If I could I would give this place a 0 I would. Do not recommend - ATP just make the drive and go to Chadol or Honey Pig instead. read more

We are literally eating here right now. Andy, the manager was more than hospitable. He checked on us at least five times when we were there to make sure the foods and service was what we expected. We enjoyed the food and 10/10 service immensely. There were four of us, they brought out all of the bonchons, meats, sides, and salads/kimchee. The foods were very fresh and delicious. The meats were awesome. All of us were extremely happy with our experience. Special thank you to: Andy, the manager. Calvin, our first server. Maria, our second server.

Came here for the first time on Monday around 1230 pm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was very clean and it was quiet since we came at a earlier time because of the holiday[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space was cozy as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was quick and friendly, all the staff came by to check on and help us with making sure the meat was cooked properly. Everything was great and everyone was super helpful. We opted for the menu B option and both of the us were full from how much meat and sides were offered. We started with the steak, spicy bulgogi , brisket and thick pork belly for our meats. Quickly followed by the rice, steamed egg cheese corn, and the standard pickled vegetable sides. Everything was delicious and fresh, we were full in no time. Also I had a Soju Mojito and surprisingly it was pretty good . read more

I'm a big fan of KBBQ and was really surprised to learn that Iron Pig sits right off of 193 in Greenbelt. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The spot makes a great first impressions, the entrance was dawned with all sorts of festive lights and decorations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is fairly small, perhaps 10-15 tables total with a bar that sits 5ish folks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, it was very clean, well decorated, and had TVs with some classic kpop showing for all to enjoy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] On a Wednesday evening around 7.30, the restaurant was fairly empty - my party was seated immediately by a very friendly host. The service was really spectacular - both the hostess and our server checked in on us regularly to fill drinks, take protein orders, and make sure we were having a great evening. The cooking grills were changed out frequently which I loved - we didn't have to worry about smokey or charred grills. There are two all you can eat options - an A side (which is only available for lunch) and a $37 B side (which we chose for dinner). Each table is provided two side dishes, the regular spread of KBBQ add ons, white rice, and a tray of sauces. We tried a slew of meats - the NY steak, skewer chicken, bulgogi, spicy bulgogi, brisket, pork belly, shrimp, and pork galbi. Everything was really really delicious - I barely used my sauces since the meats were flavorful as is. The pork galbi was my favorite by far - I got three rounds of it, it was the perfect balance of lean meat with juicy fat. I also really enjoyed the thin sliced pork belly, which I traditionally don't enjoy; the thin sliced really helped it to get crispy. The drink menu has plenty of offerings for all palettes. I decided to go with the $10 all you can drink beer (must also have the all you can eat kbbq to order). There were six brands of beer included in the deal, and the server checked in often to keep my bottle full. A regular beer is $5.....so 2+ beers makes your money back. Easy! I'd happily return to Iron Pig - the quality of the food and service is top notch. I enjoyed the food and the fun atmosphere. read more

I had the steak, marinated chicken, and spicy chicken all you can eat. The steak was seasoned amazingly and the chicken was pretty good too. I got the steamed egg as a side and it was nice and tasty (it's superrrr hot so be careful). The spicy chicken wasn't as spicy as I'd prefer it to be but there was definitely a little kick to it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was nice and the place looked very clean and well kept.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was pretty quick to come check on us to make sure everything was okay, but I went on a night that wasn't super busy. Overall it was a great experience and I'll definitely be back! read more

What a nice treat this was - Korean bbq at it finest! First off all brand, new decor, and it has a wonderful Korean vibe. Complete with K-pop music and beautiful seating. Are there any rustic look to it. The food is outstanding, the servers good easy option of cooking the meat and food for you or letting you do it. Our server did a great job tonight- the food came in large portions, high-quality, and very savory. Yes the menu is a bit pricey, that being the downside. For 4 of us tonight no alcohol the bill was $159.00 before the tip, but was well worth it- gotta give this place a twirl. Only downside was the one of the servers was a bit unkind regarding getting some food to go boxed up, and the tail end of our meal the server disappeared, and wasn't there to help us get the chicken prepared, but otherwise was a wonderful evening read more

Iron Pig - Barbeque Near Me - Berwyn Heights, Maryland

So I had a friend pick out this place since it was close to the Greenbelt station. You could never go wrong with Korean BBQ. I've never heard about Iron Pig or even bothered to look up the reviews and just wanted to give it a shot. I will say that from the first time looking at the outside it looked promising. Although the name "Iron Pig" could be just combining the two popular Korean BBQ places (Iron Age and Honey Pig). Not sure if that was intentional. My friend and I are seated and off the bat a couple things I've noticed is how extremely small the water cups were but they did provide a water pitcher so no issues there. Also we had to ask for chopsticks which I found just a bit odd being that it's a Korean BBQ place. The server must have re-lit our grill 5 times since it kept going out. The pricing for the meals was just a little on the pricey side. I'll try to highlight what I believe to be highlights. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is a bit smaller than the big Korean BBQ places, the decor and interior was nice and not having Korean music videos playing was nice, and the meats were ok.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Unfortunately there were a bit more negative things I noticed. First, I believe that they were understaffed. There may have been 2 waitresses and they may not have understood some of the questions that were asked. When I would ask for sauce, chopsticks, or had other questions they seemed to be a bit bothered by it. When my friend ordered his drink it never came and they left it on the bill. They did remove it from the bill but we didn't have anyone really check in on us. They gave us a couple shots that we didn't order but a couple seconds later they took it back and said it was a mistake. The biggest complaint I would have is that they automatically put an 18% gratuity fee on your bill. I didn't notice it until my friend pointed it out and thought that it was bizarre since it was a party of 2. For someone that may not be looking closely at their receipt may miss it but they still leave an option to tip more. I don't think I'll be coming back to this place simply for the automatic gratuity charge. Automatic 10% maybe with the option to tip more but it would be nice if they displayed that somewhere for the customer to see. IF the food and service was phenomenal then I can understand or if the staff would let customers know then maybe but personally I didn't think it was worth it. I think my friend and I got the option B dinner (which was the middle option) without any additional drinks or sides and with the added gratuity it came out to $91.74. read more

Husband & His friend dined here the other day at the end of their dinner they received their check and thankfully they double checked it and 18% GRATUITY had already been added to it. Makes no sense when it was only TWO OF THEM?!. Food is mediocre... manager or owner knew the couple that came in and sat behind them and offered them complimentary tequila shots that were mistakenly given to my husband and friend.... Servers came and had to apologize and take away the shots .. lmao!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Empty restaurant. barely anyone working [[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].. Would never return here.. PLEASE CHECK YOUR BILL! IF THEY OPERATE ADDING 18% GRATUITY AUTOMATICALLY TO TWO PEOPLE JUST WOW!!! EAT SOMEWHERE ELSE! read more

The food was amazingly delicious! Unfortunately, the service was so bad that if they didn't already add in the 18% tip, it would've been somewhere between 12% and 15% for me. I typically always tip over 20%, but the staff was poor. Part of the problem may have been that the young Latino women did not understood English very well. I requested chopsticks three times, and eventually just got up and got them. It didn't end there I had to make request multiple times. Even when we were ready to pay the check, another customer had to flag the waitstaff down and direct them to our table. It is really true that people may not remember what you say or do, but they will definitely remember how you make them feel. The weight staff here made me feel like they really couldn't give a damn. read more

Food was delish. We tried the beef and pork combo. Loved all the meats. Loved the pickled radish and kimchi. We will definitely go back. Oh and the service was good as well. read more

Iron Pig - Barbeque Near Me - Berwyn Heights, Maryland

Came here for the first time for dinner with a couple of friends. We ordered the all you can eat for $37 per person and ordered some drinks. Total came out to over $60 per person, with an 18% gratuity automatically included. What's hot - Quality. Their food is pretty tasty and well-seasoned. Be prepared that if you order spicy food, it's not really spicy. - Menu. Pretty good variety of meats and seafood. Be prepared it's not vegetarian or vegan friendly. - Price. For the most part, it's pretty reasonable per person. Because Korean BBQ is meant to be shared though, be prepared for the cost to add up quickly. - Location. Pretty good location, easy to find, and a small parking lot, which is helpful. The inside layout is pretty good, but it doesn't look like it can hold more than groups of 4-6 people. - Health and safety. All their staff wore face masks, which is reassuring. During this time of the pandemic, it's nice seeing businesses take precautions, especially when interacting with the public. What's not - Service. Their food is pretty good, but one of the things that sucks is they're not good about refilling your side dishes (or anything). You really have to be proactive in asking for anything. - Sides. They only give you a few sides- salad (that's just lettuce), a couple of kimchis, a small potato salad, and sauces. - Automatic gratuity included. There's an automatic 18% gratuity included, which I don't like and don't understand. If it's for the possible uneaten food, then add that into the cost of food, but not gratuity. Personally, hubby and I weren't impressed with their service. - Ambiance. It's not easy having a conversation with your group. With the noise of the food cooking and the music they play, you end up having to raise your voice a lot. Final Answer Not bad, but not on our list of top places to return to. read more

Food was fine... not great. Service is kind of slow and quality was not great overall. K pot is better. It's too loud in there as well.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I went with three friends on Valentine's Day, and the restaurant was very busy and understaffed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We called ahead and they told us it will be a 45 min wait but ended up being an hour. Then they called us inside, just to wait another 15 mins before seating us. There were only two servers working that night, so we tried to be patient and understanding. The servers were kind, but the service itself was not very good. When we were seated, we were not given menus or utensils. When they took our drink orders, I was the only one who asked for water, but it never came, so I had to ask again. Throughout the night we had to repeat our orders or ask for items multiple times before receiving them. When we received the check, the tip had already been included, which may explain the level of service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, my experience was not great, but considering how busy and understaffed the restaurant was, I think it might be better during a less hectic time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

OMG... can we talk about the deliciousness that is Iron Pig?!? I came in for lunch and basically did not need to eat dinner that night. My friend and I came in here for lunch on a whim and were very happy we did. We did the all you can eat special. We got the bulgogi, spicy pork belly, and shrimp. The spicy pork belly was top tier as the young folks say. The spicy pork belly really won the show. Get the spicy pork belly over the other pork bellys, you'll be glad you did. If you don't eat pork then go with the bulgogi. All the other sides you get are good accoutrements as well. When you come, come with an empty stomach ready to be filled with deliciousness. I know I'll be back! read more

Honey Age! Fans of KBBQ are aware that Iron Age and Honey Pig are chain purveyors. I couldn't resist, maybe the owners couldn't either. When I got an alert from Yelp that a new KBBQ joint had opened nearby, I was eager to try it, then skeptical when I saw the prices. Could the food be that good? Spoiler alert - YES! Iron Pig almost qualifies as a hidden gem despite being on a main artery. It's in a small building across from Beltway Plaza, obscured by the KFC just west. Entry is only from eastbound Greenbelt Road, which is divided at that point. Inside is a bar (license pending) with dining areas on both sides. Big screen TV with the obligatory K-pop at reasonable volume. Booths with grills, some padded some bare wood. High ceiling with decorative frames that look like pvc tubing. Well lit. Very good kimchi, pickled daikon, and bean sprouts. Standard potato salad, romaine cut like Caesar salad rather than whole for ssam. Not impressed with sauces but I've been spoiled by the bar at Kpot. I started with plain pork belly and beef bulgogi. Marinated to perfection, no dip needed. Likewise the spicy chicken. The spicy pork belly was true meat candy. The theme here is the marinade, where many places skimp. Deep flavor and tender meat, but does coat the grill quickly. No problem, changed as needed using a smartly designed square steel bucket. Top quality meat, I was not surprised to see A5 Wagyu offered a la carte. Very cordial service. So, upscale food at corresponding price. Never mind the quirky decor,you'll be focusing on the food as management clearly does. Iron Pig is a different class of KBBQ. Five *****. So glad it's a short drive! read more

We have been on a journey to try as many of the Korean BBQ places in the DMV. Today we decided to try Iron Pig, this place does AYCE and it's $36.99 per person. We were promptly seated when we arrived, but we also arrived 20 min after they opened. I loved that they had a mocktail section on the menu, because who doesn't like a pretty drink in a pretty glass. We chose the bulgogi, New York steak, and thick cut pork belly. We also got rice, corn cheese, and steamed egg as our sides. For banchan they had a bit more options than other places like: kimchi, pickled radish, spicy cucumber, potato salad, and salad. The meats we had were extremely good and especially the thick cut pork belly, which basically melted in your mouth. I would definitely go back here again, the service was great and they had a good balance of knowing when you needed help and when you didn't. read more

Food was subpar. Service was slow. For KBBQ, didn't seem like real Korean people worked there. They added an automatic 18% gratuity for 2 people. Although it's AYCE, there no buffet to get extras. Our waiter didn't seem to understand the American language...when asked a question about what we can order per person, he agreed to what I was saying but changed it when I started to order my proteins. read more

One of the most disappointing kbbq experiences I've ever had. I wouldn't even call it a kbbq restaurant. IT IS NOT. The moment we sat down and were served FORKS instead of chopsticks, I knew we were at the wrong place. I had to ask for chopsticks! WTH. Additionally, I'm not sure if he was the owner or manager, but he was "helping" with one of the grills that we were using. He was "cooking" the pork belly and while it still needed more cooking time, he told my sister in law that it was already cooked. She could definitely see that the meat was still raw. It was pale! He also kept lowering and increasing the fire while the meat was still cooking. I get it when the meat is cooked and you're not ready for the next set of raw meat, but the pork was still getting cooked! He honestly needs to review his Servsafe certification. He might learn some things about food safety. I guess he was offended when we didn't agree to him trying to get us sick from the raw meat that he left the table and gave us an attitude about it. He never came back to our table (thank God!) and I requested from the other server that we would just cook everything in one grill. I will NEVER recommend this place if you want an authentic Korean bbq experience. If I could give ZERO stars, I would. read more

We had a person that could not eat pork. We told the server before she placed meat on to the grill so she was aware of no pork on one of the grills.

Pretty terrible honestly. I don't really understand all the good reviews. If you already know a KBBQ spot you like, this place will probably ruin your expectations. The only good thing we had was rice and brisket. Bulgogi tasted a little weird, steak was bland... do NOT get the skewers. I think they just use store bought taco seasoning to marinate? I am by no means a picky eater, but this place was just bad. read more

Place overall represents kbbq well. Highlights cheap, fast, choices. Came here on a july fourth holiday and did not have to wait. There was two other parties. There are two areas, one main room the other is a party room. Very spacious seems to be able to hold 15-20 parties. There is also a bar area. Banchan: less variety than im used to. Also less traditional korean side dishes. Price is definitely worth the amount. There is an option for all you can eat which i think would be worth it if you are very hungry. The quality of meat is alright, 3/5, not the best i had. They give you a option for sides if you order ala carte or combo. We got corn and soup which was okay. Service is fantastic. Overall i would come again because of the price, amount, and lack of waiting read more

The worst korean bbq i have ever had. The meat is not fresh and service is horrible. And automatic 18% tips??!! This is ridiculous.

Was excited to try this new KBBQ spot near me, but unfortunately Iron Pig did not deliver. I really wanted to like this place, but the food missed the mark. We had the AYCE and $36.99 pp is a bit steep for what we got here and the quality of meats. Just a few ban chan (side dishes) that were decent. Those three special sides - corn cheese, deonjang soup and steamed egg - you only get to choose two. IMO, if you're charging $36.99, give the table all three instead of two. A few more suggestions for improvement - the lettuce wraps could be of better quality, and the garlic we asked for would've been better sliced for the grill versus the chopped. Lastly, maybe include the sesame oil sauce (I asked for it and they kindly brought it out to us) as one of the main dipping sauces. The meats from the AYCE we suggest if you do end up dining here - the brisket, NY steak and spicy pork. Not a fan of the "bulgogi" at all, the meat was different than the typical meat used for bulgogi. FYI, I've had KBBQ throughout the DMV and also in S. Korea (also home since I'm a halfie). Service and staff were the best parts of our experience. Super attentive, friendly and even the manager (possibly owner, not sure) checked on us. The restaurant is clean and spacious. So 2 stars for the food, 5 stars for the staff, service and restaurant. read more

Interesting name! We decided to give this place a try this weekend and I'm glad we did. The meats were great quality and the sides were great! Our host was very attentive and kept refilling our side dishes which was nice. We didn't try the AYCE this time because we wanted to sample their galbi which comes in a prefix set. Most of the items were on the pricier end compared to other places but we can totally see why. The meats were very tender and well marinated. We enjoyed the brisket as well. The default sauces don't include sesame oil and salt but we asked for it and got it fairly quickly. One of the meats were a little too sweet, but other than that, everything came out delicious. The steam egg was so fluffy and juicy and probably the best I've ever had. We'll definitely be back to try AYCE next time. read more
