Based on the name I avoided let's meat like the plague thinking it was gimmicky, but hell one year forced me to look for a large group AYCE late at night and Let's Meat was one of the only options left. God damn did they arise to the occasion. Both times I needed a large party reservation, they just asked for a time, a name, and a phone number. No card required, they sat as down as soon as the table was cleared. Two different tiers for AYCE - the shrimp is fantastic but honestly base is amazing on its own. All the meat just tasted super fresh, even the marinated ones. Plus they cook it for you on that really nice heavy iron lid so the grill stays hot, and they had a nice incline to drain the drippings too. I'm a fan of brisket and jowl, but a lot of my table mates loved the bulgolgi and the chicken. Lots of great options for drinkers too. Funny tower that pre-mixes three beers with a soju, with plenty of flavored ones too. It's not the biggest menu out there, but with solid options and open an hour or two later than a lot of the competition - that's a win. read more

Was super excited to have kbbq on a Korean pot lid but I think my expectations was a bit too high. Let's get straight into the review. Mind you, we choose the standard (1st option) out of the 3 choices. Food: 7/10 We ordered beef brisket, jowl, and bulgogi for the first round. The meat was pretty good quality. Jowl was cut into thick slices and has the perfect crispy but soft bite to it. If you haven't tried jowl, you are missing out. It's better than pork belly in my opinion. Atmosphere: 6/10 Large restaurant space. A lot of people coming with friends and couples. It is loud inside so be aware. Service: 6.5/10 Good service. They were quick to bring out our food. The worker cooks for you which personally I dislike. I felt very rushed in eating and when it was done cooking, the meat was cold cause I'm a slow eater. Otherwise, everyone was nice. Our waiter was going between 2-3 tables. It seems he was at our table the most lol. Overall: 6.5/10 Nothing special really. It's a decent AYCE kbbq. If you are in the area, I would give it a try but I wouldn't travel far to come here. read more

Went to Let's Meat BBQ for some AYCE KBBQ. The lunch menu is pretty solid, with a good selection of meats and sides to choose from. The service was excellent, our server actually cooked the meats for us, which isn't something I'm used to at most KBBQ spots. They were also constantly refilling our drinks and banchan throughout the meal. The meats were tasty and the portions were generous. The restaurant is conveniently located in the heart of Koreatown, making it an easy stop if you're in the area. There was plenty of seating when we visited, though I can imagine it gets pretty busy during dinner hours. Overall, a great spot for AYCE KBBQ with attentive service and good food. read more

This was my daughter's favorite place we ate at in K-Town. The service was great. We aren't used to the server actually cooking for us. We normally do that ourselves..it was great. The additions that came to the table to compliment the meat were all crisp and delicious! The inside of the restaurant and tables were ok. We felt comfortable and got our bellies very full! read more

Let's Meat - Pork belly and brisket with the complimentary additions! - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

All you can eat kbbq with two options: classic and premium. The premium has seafood options and isn't a huge difference in price. My friend and I both chose the classic and I think we really got our moneys worth. You can order two meats at a time and they will cook it for you. We chose the brisket and a lot of the other beef options and it was all tasty. The banchan was nice and they were quick with refilling our kimchi. You are given 100 minutes for the ayce and it's plenty of time. read more

Finally found an AYCE Korean BBQ in NYC. We are from Las Vegas where there are plenty of AYCE places and son wanted Korean BBQ but he's a teenager and eats like bear. Plenty of Korean restaurants in NYC but few AYCE. This place saved us, food was great as well as service. read more

I think this place is fine for what it is, I don't usually eat kbbq in nyc tbh. Back when I lived in CA, I would get kbbq every month. It was just a great way to get with friends and eat well. But I feel like for how much you pay out here, it's not the same quality. If I paid what I did for san diego, I would get such high quality meats. On top of that, I had just come from 3 hours of dance rehearsals so I was famished and you'd think everything would taste better than usual. read more

they calculated tip after tax. This tip was auto completed. Had to pay 20% on top of bill and tax beef brisket was dry read more

Our go-to spot for late night kbbq. Been coming here for years and it never disappoints. Never had a bad experience. Highlights are the brisket especially when it gets crispy, the pork jowl (melts in your mouth), and their banchan. Service is always on point. You get staff refilling banchan every few minutes and servers bringing you napkins without having to ask. They always play the best music here too. read more

J'ADORE!!! First of all, the staff is absolutely adorable! Annika, May, and Daniel are all so lovely and accommodating. And the food? Simply superb Korean BBQ! The prices are actually quite reasonable, especially considering it's all-you-can-eat, so make sure you come hungry! I recommend this place to infinity and beyond!!! read more

- seasoning is delicious, meat is cooked by workers and service is fast - we were charged for regular price instead of discounted lunch price which was disappointing.... - felt like we were being rushed near the end even though we were still in timeframe read more

This place is legit! You can taste the quality of the meat with each bite which is surprising since it's AYCE. We had Susie as our server and one word to describe her is efficient. She was kind but also extremely fast with cooking our food, serving the food, and maintaining our table all while handling other tables. We never felt unattended which was awesome, especially since it's AYCE and we wanted to get our worth before getting full. Pro tip, you can order half portions which is ideal if you want to try more foods between a smaller party. The restaurant is also very clean and tidy. Good vibes all around read more

Let's Meat is all you can eat Korean BBQ in Koreatown that occupies a large sapce and is perfect a big group. I came here with a group of six. The menu is simple with only two all you can eat options. They have a smaller list of meats to choose for $46.99 per person. Or, you can go for the larger list for $52.99. The more expensive option includes premium selections like strip steak and octopus. Compared to the other Korean BBQ places nearby, this is a steal of a deal for unlimited food. They also bring a large variety of appetizers for everyone to share in. These included: kimchi, radish, and more. My personal favorite was the cheese with corn. And of course, you can have as much rice and noodles as you want too. Some of the meats that we had included: pork belly, teriyaki chicken, strip steak, and beef ribeye. I thought all of the meats were well marinated though the beef was juicier than the rest. The server was also really attentive and constantly came by to check on us and to make sure the meat was grilled correctly. Keep in mind that the tip is added into the bill, so no additional tip is needed. For the price, quality and convenient location, this was one of the best Korean BBQ I have had in New York City. read more

Super fun AYCE KBBQ always treat us well servers are super friendly and funny they are great to new comers and returning folk alike

A friend suggested we come here for the 4th of July and I was not disappointed! I've had Japanese BBQ before, but not Korean, so I was bit confused by the grill at first; I thought it was a lid they were going to lift off, but apparently it's "cap-style". Also, you don't grill it yourself here, the staff does it for you, and there are only all-you-can-eat-options. I believe because it's only all-you-can-eat, that there's a 100-minute table limit, even if you're done ordering food! While they're not PUSHY, per se, they do actively remind you that the time limit is approaching, and deliver your check to you as a reminder to move it along. Nothing off the more expensive "signature menu" enticed us, so we all went for the Classic. They have $20 plum wine bottle options which I loved! They give each person a little dish with difference sauces/salt, and a bunch of extra vegetabley add-ons which we mostly ignored, except for this DELICIOUS cheesy corn. Don't sleep on this corn! They also are SUPER attentive at refilling your sides/sauces/add-ons and replenishing your orders. I do not usually frequent all-you-can-eat establishments, so my friend had to break down that you basically check the menu, throw out some stuff you want to your staff/grillmasters, they bring it, cook it for you, portion it out to each person at the table, and you throw out some more stuff they want you to bring once that's done (so, it's not like Gyu-Kaku, where they just automatically bring you everything listed on the option you choose). We were particularly fond of the brisket, the hanger steak, and the PORK BELLY. No idea how they marinate their meats, but even without dipping them into the sauces, you could tell they were well-seasoned. It was such a cool experience, and I'd definitely come back! :D read more

The beef was soooo good. The pork was kinda a disappointment but not terrible. The chicken (idk who even got this) was definitely not it. Would come back just for the beef and try more meats!! Definitely such a a vibe. The drinks were also great. Had the most delicious cheesy corn mixture as well. Beware the bathroom is beyond small and crowded though. The tables also small crowded and little dirty so that was an oof. The restaurant is also very crowded so definitely have reservations and don't come earlier than that time. Overall, decent place. read more

I came here for lunch on a Sunday as a walk in. I decided to take my god son here for his birthday and this was definitely at hit! There was no wait and we were sat immediately. The options were great! I believe the lunch menu was around $29 per person, give or take. We were taken care of immediately and waste no time bringing the small bites and meat. Our servers name is Chin and was absolutely amazing. He was so attentive, cooked our meal so well and was kind. I will absolutely come back here on a sunday just to have him as my server again! This was such a great experience! Highly recommended and thank you so much! read more

Let's Meat is a great AYCE KBBQ spot in Koreatown, perfect for groups. We came as a walk-in on a weeknight and was seated right away. We opted for the Classic option for $42.99 per person. They were quick to get our meat orders and bringing everything out. We had the beef brisket, beef marinated ribeye, pork jowl, pork belly, pork shoulder steak, and spicy pork short rib. As the meats came out, the server was always cooking for us and distributing the meat onto our plates. We also enjoyed the banchans and sides that included spicy tofu stew, cheese corn, and spicy rice cake. The tofu soup was one of my favorite items, so good. I did find that banchans were a bit more limited with only 4 kinds plus some lettuce to make ssam. Also not often that you find cole slaw as a banchan option. We also got the Somaek Tower ($38.99), which filled up about 6 cups. Beer towers are always fun during KBBQ, but this seemed like not much. Overall, it was a fulfilling and delicious meal, but I felt quite rushed with ordering the meats and their 100 minute time limit. read more

Let's Meat - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

When in Koreatown, do as the Koreans do. I assume the adage carries. But this most recent trip to NY had me meeting my best friend and his wife (I guess that kind of makes her my best friend too, due to relational proximity which I'm ok with lol) where we went to Macys for Christmas town then on to Koreatown. We knew we were eating KBBQ but I didn't know what or where to expect. Cue "Let's Meat"! It really didn't look like much from the front. But as we followed the narrow corridor in, the place opened up to what I was used to seeing at a barbecue place. The sounds, the smells. It all hit! From the jump, the service was better than most. Especially for a place where the dress code is casual, you almost never know what to expect. But our hostess was inviting and the dude cooking for us... well, he was no Saja Boy in the face per se, but he definitely was trynna be my idol. He managed our food like a master of his craft. He perfectly cooked all the different items we threw at him (not literally. Via order obviously). From the brisket to the veggies and even the cheese corn (ohhhhh how I love the cheese corn!), everything was made with the utmost of freshness and brevity so we were eating non stop until we finally tapped out. The bill was a little hefty for my liking but luckily my hosts picked up the tab because they know I love them so much (and that I was broke that night)! But I will say, you definitely get your moneys worth. And considering where we were and the vibe... it was well worth it. So thanks Scott and Tiff! Can't wait to see where we eat next read more

My first Korean BBQ in the city....in K-town! Couldn't ask for a more authentic atmosphere. The whole restaurant is jam packed with tables and I'd recommend asking for something upstairs (which seemed catered towards larger parties) for more privacy. Meats were delicious and even the standard price offered 8 or so options to choose from. Highly recommended the yogurt soju, pairs with everything because it's a great tasting soju! read more

I was able to get a reservation for a party of 9 on. Saturday over the phone and was able to keep the reservation despite one person couldn't make it. Decor is modern and clean, there is a bar at the front and dining tables are at the middle and back. We were informed by the waiter that we have to choose between the lunch, regular, and premium meat options beforehand. The entire group has to follow the same meat options and there is a 90 mins dining limit and 60 mins ordering window. They also cook the meat for you which is convenient. Side dishes were refilled frequently and the meats come out as the previous batch gets cooked. Very attentive service and the meats were delicious. I loved wrapping a few of pieces of meat and various side dishes with lettuce. Overall, we had a great experience and it was more affordable than ordering a la carte at other kbbq restaurants. read more

Last night, SO and I both had the signature menu, which includes the classic menu. The classic's thinly sliced ribeye was heavenly and the brisket along with the pork belly were also pretty good. The additional $6 for the signature was worth it for the NY strip (limit 1 per person)...SO was already stuffed before the 2nd round, so she gave me hers. The service was excellent...sides and napkins were being replaced exactly when needed. This is pretty good value for all the types of protein offered and great service! read more

Came here with my colleagues and overall had a great time. The food was tasty and had lots of variety. The chef cooking our food was attentive so most of the meats were cooked well - definitely a solid KBBQ spot. We did get 4 somaek towers, but they were all about half empty which was a little disappointing. Still, the service was good and the flavors made up for it. Fun atmosphere and worth checking out if you're craving Korean BBQ in the city. read more

Let's Meat is one of those New York City oddities in that they consistently deliver on service & quality at a, seemingly, unsustainable price point. We arrived at 5:15pm fully armed with the knowledge of no reservations and, as NYers, uncomfortable with waiting. Scan the menu & we're off to our table. Smiles & searing scents everywhere! We're delivered water followed by an avalanche of the traditional Korean salads, pickled root veggies and kimchi. A waiter takes our order of marinated chicken breast, spicy pork ribs, hangar steak and ribeye steak too! We also each order the spicy tofu soup and sides of rice. Remember...it's an ALL YOU CAN EAT bbq! The meats are seared at our table by the conductor of meatstuffs & we serve ourselves to this excellent assortment. The cheesy corn is ready too & exquisite. We, somehow, order more...beers, brisket, marinated ribeye and another o' them hangar steaks please? It arrives, is cooked and delicious again. Poof! I'd suggest steering clear of the brisket as it's both too fatty and not a satisfying bite compared to the other options. You decide when you visit... read more

My friend was craving kbbq so we heard let's meat had a great all you can eat option. We got here at 6pm on a Friday with no reservation and was seated within 10 mins. The music inside is really loud so if you are looking for a place to catch up with a friend maybe pick different restaurant. The food itself was ok! The marinated meats were kind of salty and I wasn't a huge fan of the tteokboki because it was super watery. personally i didnt like the kimchi but my friend loved it so if you like your kimchi super fermented you will probably also like it. Make sure you dont leave too much meat because youll be charged 15 per person. I enjoyed my time here. I personally didnt eat enough things to make me feel like it was worth it but If you want to come with a large party and eat a lot this is the place for you!

Let's Meat - Set up - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

Wowza, places like this are why I can't give up meat for good and continue being flexitarian. For $45, you get 1 hr of AYCE Korean bbq + small sides like rice cakes and pickled apps. If 1 hr sounds too tight for you, just know you can order at the last minute and that service is super attentive. I usually love rare meat, but after having a few food poisonings this year, I appreciated the staff's diligence in helping grill the meat appropriately and letting us know when it's done. They don't make you wait until you finish one order before ordering the next, which helps get max amount of food. Faves were the flank steak & ones marinated in spicy sauce. Pro tip: save pork for last because it can be superrr filling & takes more time. Only downside, the wait was extremely long & while the online system was convenient in knowing your place in line, we waited about 30 mins past the estimation given. I recommend putting your name on the list and just grabbing a drink nearby- they give you 5 mins to arrive after texting you that you're up! Will 100% be back read more

Thank you for such an amazing time. I will be back soon. This place is not for vegetarians. read more
