    Stopped by KPOT for lunch. For about $21 (as of 2026) per person you can do unlimited Korean bbq for a two hour window. They had a station where you can mix oils, vinegar and all sorts of herbs to build your own sauce. On the food line they had fried chicken, kimchi, fries, daikon, edamame etc. We used the tablet at the table to select our meats and the server brought over rice for us along with our drinks. I went with a lychee martini. The drink was tasty and so were our meat selections. I do wish they had more option for the banchan but for that price point it was still decent. Solid experience and I would return.

    We came here to celebrate my brother's graduation! Mint was so sweeeet, she took really great care of us. Super attentive + changed our grills in a prompt manner. Thank you for making our dinner so enjoyable! We will be back. Mahalo (thank you) from Hawaii! thank you Mint!!

    A solid kpot dining experience and appreciate the ventilation system so we don't leave with barbecue smell on our clothes. The service was prompt, we were seated quickly and they were attentive and polite. Overall satisfying and glad to have stopped by on a Saturday night.

    Located across Charles Village Pub (CVP), this was my first time eating at KPOT in Towson. My first time at a KPOT was in Long Island, NY. There, I had a very good experience. When we entered, the space was bigger than I had expected. The host wasn't super friendly upon entering, but better luck next time. To offset that, we were greeted by our friendly waiter D. Throughout our meal, he checked in with us a few times and always had an upbeat and positive attitude. We decided to try both the hot pot and KBBQ, which was an extra $5pp. For hot pot, the both of us went with the Golden Chicken soup base. Delicious ! I tend to order instant ramen at hot pot restaurants since I don't eat it at home, and the noodles soaked in the flavors perfectly. It wasn't the easiest to operate the electric stovetop so I ended up overcooking the noodles towards the end, but now I know. Maybe ask for instructions since the workers don't really explain anything to you, just that you order everything off a tablet. The hot pot food was overall pretty satisfying. Rice cakes, ramen, scallops, squid, beef brisket, watercress, and sliced pumpkin were some of my favorites. The KBBQ was a bit more disappointing. I think the short ribs were our favorite. Nothing else was great and some pieces tasted a bit funky. Also wasn't a fan of the KBBQ sauce. The hot food bar was also a bit disappointing. The one in Long Island was fantastic. The fries here were cold, the wings were tasty but also lukewarm, but the kimchi was solid. All-in-all, it was a good experience.

    A decent Korean option in Towson. This place has chill and fun vibes. The staff are friendly and attentive. Love thier use of technology to order on tablets table side. Have a solid amount of kbbq and hot pot options, a good sauce bar, could add some more for dessert options tho. Parking nearby was easy enough. For ayce it was a good value for the price and variety

    Whenever we come to this KPot we have a great experience! It's a lot newer than the catonsville location Our servers are always really nice and fast with the meats. The veggies and seafood are always fresh and the meats are always great! The music isn't too loud and the lighting is nice and relaxing. We will keep coming back :)

    Hot pot and Korean bbq restaurant. This time we opted for the AYCE hot pot. This was my first time doing hot pot where you had your own personalized pot instead of the big communal pot in the center of the table. First you select your broth type. I opted for the spicy chili broth. Then you select your meats and veggies from the iPad provided at your table. Plenty of fresh Chinese broccoli, bok choi, mushrooms, and other veggies to choose from. For meats, I stuck with beef belly and brisket. They had snow crab legs in the buffet area, in addition to some other fried foods. The convenience of having an iPad where you place your next order of meats and veggies kept things moving along nicely. I was so stuffed when we finished. Great experience!

    We were the first ones to this place on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated quickly by a nice server who explained how to order everything in the iPad. Food was good, just wish portions were bigger so there would be less waiting for the AYCE. I like the seafood options since not all places offer that. As we were leaving we noticed that there was a help your self area for crabs, dessert, etc, that the server didn't tell us about. Bit disappointed in that ...but we also discovered that there are a few locations in Florida which we will definitely try.

    At the Kpot in Towson, you can get either hot pot or a Korean barbecue or pay an additional $5 per person for both options. Frankly, lunch (M-F until I think 4 pm) is the most cost-effective at $19.99 per person. Dinner prices are $29.99 per person. There is ample seating at this location. Our waitress/server was very nice and fairly attentive. I wish the music wasn't quite so noisy, as it can be very hard to hear and we came on a Friday at lunch time when there weren't very busy. The selection of appetizers is pretty minimal (French fries, spring rolls, some churros) and the dessert selection is even less so which is a bit disappointing. They have some fruits to pick from like orange slices and melon or honey dew but nothing to write home about. There are a variety of sauces that you can pick and mix as well as kimchi. Some meat (like bulgogi) seem slightly better seasoned than others (like pork belly). Korean BBQ isn't the healthiest meal per se but overall we had a good time and as mentioned, I think the weekday lunch price is much more cost-effective than the dinner prices.

    We went here for my birthday. The ambiance was nice, the food was excellent and we had a great experience. After leaving the restaurant my husband and I feel sick. Vomiting and diarrhea really bad. This had to have been food poison.

    Came here after my best friend said how great it was and now fast food came out. Sat down and although it was a wait for a server we were able to order (accidentally) on the tablet and the food started coming before the server had ordered our drinks!! You have a 2 hour limit to eat and we were stuffed an hour in. Over all I can't wait to go back. The restaurant was so cute and still feels new. Loved it.

    AYCE Kbbq and Hotpot at @thekpotbbq! $29.99 a person for kbbq and $5 extra if you want to add hotpot! The amount of options for meat has me dreaming of every bite I'm in love with the kpot short rib and spicy pork belly! My favorite place for all you can eat! $34.99 for kbbq and hotpot!

I chose the 2 meat option for $14.19 (beef and yard bird) w/greens and coleslaw. The young lady said $27 even. I was beyond confused. She explained that the combo is $6 for 1 side and soda or $8.49 for 2 sides and a soda. I said well both combo options are cheaper then what you are charging me. She said oh you did not say combo and the chicken was a $4 upcharge that she didnt mention prior. Great customers service would have mentioned that. So I decided to get pulled chicken and beef and the combo. For $23. I got home and the food was not good. The beef was to be lean and it was tough. The greens were too sweet and the cornbread was dry and hard to digest. The coleslaw was okay and my unsweeted icetea. I would rather spend my hard earned money at a sit down restaurant then here.
