Kalbi Bento Box
Chanel B.

This review is for their takeout bento boxes. We ordered from UberEats and I had the kalbi bento box-- huge portions, fresh and flavorful. If you want food to go, I definitely suggest to try. It was one of the best bento boxes I had in so long-- it came with 2 sides, which was a surprise as you don't get to choose, but it was also a pleasant surprise.

This is a great spot for korean bbq! The meat and dishes came out so quickly. It was all really good and great quality. Their booths are decent size, but for our group of 7, it was pretty tight. I'd recommend requesting 2 separate tables for larger groups. Other than that, solid kbbq spot!

Cold Noodles
Mojan D.

Food was good and ambiance is pretty typical for KBBQ. We had about a 20 minute wait to be seated. Service was quite slow. The employees were hustling, but it appeared to be a staffing issue. Was about 15 minutes from being seated to placing our first order. Ran out of water pretty quickly and it was never replenished. Had to ask twice for some sides. Overall the food was good quality and pretty large portions. Some unique menu items like lamb bulgogi and cold noodles, which were both yummy. We ended up getting charged the bill of two other tables on top of our bill. Was well over $200 for a bill that should've been $70. The receipt was correct but the overcharge showed up on our institution as pending a day later. They were very apologetic about it and it appeared to be a mistake, perhaps connected to the short staffed thing.

Beef Bulgogi Bento Meal
Clydelle J.

Ordered for delivery and was genuinely impressed. Portions were very generous, everything arrived hot, and the food was delicious across the board. The beef was flavorful and tender, the glass noodles were perfectly cooked and well-seasoned, and the rice portion was more than enough to share. Even the sides held up well during delivery. Overall, excellent value for the portion sizes and quality. Definitely one of those orders where you feel like you got more than you expected. Would absolutely order again.

Menu

4.5 stars tonight. We reserved for 930 PM and got seated right away. Opted for menu B. B menu has more choices than A and has better cuts of meat. We ordered brisket and marinated cut short rib and later on we ordered salted cut short rib. The meat they gave us was leaner. The marinated short rib is better than the salted kind. But otherwise all the meats were good. Our waiter who is a trainee was very attentive pleasant and he made sure we get all our orders right. It wasn't noisy tonight and not too full thank God. Overall a pleasant experience.

I've been spoiled with too many amazing Korean bbq restaurants. Master Kim's was great, they have a huge variety and they taste better than many other all you can eat Korean bbq places. They have good options. I tried because I heard of the many recommendations and the proximity to where I was at. My favorite is another place far away. My grading is due to wait time- we waited for over an hour. The servers were a bit slow also bc they were busy and maybe understaffed. The vents seemed like they were not working its was basically an enter smoke house inside :) and the quality of meat was good but not great. If you want quantity definitely go - they are tasty and have many options. Just remember to join the waitlist early and get ready to eat! They had cool robots helping to serve to your table too!

Beef Bulgogi

If a restaurant could be a soulmate this would be mine. This food will haunt your dreams and bless your nightmares; this food is the ambrosia of the gods the ichor that fueled the titans. Nations could rise and fall before another restaurant like this appears. Master Kim is the chosen one that will bring us to salvation and I will defend his honor till my final breath. Staff are always so polite and attentive and the prices are AMAZING for how much you can get. Music is a little loud in the very clean bathrooms.

Finally decided to write a review for this place after coming here since the day they opened. I have always enjoyed coong here. Throughout the years regardless of how close or far my house was every time I moved. I still came here. I save my reservations and reviews for other places but somehow I kept coming back here. Not as busy and hours of waiting outside like how it used to be back then. But that's not a bad thing. There have been more and more kbbq places that opened around the South West area so it was a matter of time that some customers migrate to a place closer to where they live. Ambiance has never changed and always remained the same. Which is a good thing. I especially still like watching my food come down between the booths. Food is still on point. Once thing with Korean food it can either come out good or bad. Not by who slices the meet. But by who cooks it. Taking some of the sesame oil and applying it to the top of the grill with a spoon helps with keeping food from sticking. Especially when I'm cooking the steak. Then applying some of the sauces I top of the meat to give it flavor goes a long way. My only gripe is how small the side dishes have gotten. ( See my pics for comparison) Yes! I know! You can keep ordering more of it. Just sucks how tiny they have become from what they used to be. Small nit picking. Also keep in mind the biggest group you want to bring is 6. 6 people will fit on the biggest table. Then the smaller tables fit 4. Oh and I still been asking for coke zero all these years and mentioning they should bring it in . Sadly they only have diet coke.

KIMO, was a great server! 5 stars, thank you for a great experience KIMO! Food came out fast and he was always checking on us to make sure we were good.

Went there with my family on Thursday. The man who was running the kitchen and running food out…read morewas rude to the staff and patrons. At one point I came back in to get to-go containers and was waiting patiently, and he was running food outside so I moved out of his way, held the door open. He didn't even acknowledge me, say thank you and gave me the rudest look. I was not impressed at all. That alone has me uninterested in ever going back. The meat was tender. The pastrami was good. I grew up eating KC BBQ and and lived in TX for several years and had plenty of TX BBQ- this to me is decent BBQ but if you know and like phenomenal BBQ this isn't going to compete with that. Read so many great reviews so I had really high expectations. Again, kudos to the pit master. The tenderness of the brisket, pastrami and beef rib was the saving grace. The woman who worked the counter taking orders was also one of the only reasons this isn't a 1 star review for me. She was a bit of sunshine in that place.

Hands down the best BBQ in Vegas. I crave this place often!!!…read more I esp love the burnt ends. The pork ribs and sausage are my next favorite. Brisket is delicious too. You seriously cannot go wrong. I've yet to try the shrimp or turkey or chicken. The sides are all delicious too. My favs are the coleslaw. It has a mild honey mustard flavor which I love. The eggplant is insane. It has an Asian flavor which is my favorite. Corn muffins are fire and the pickles are delicious and available to buy by the jar which I have multiple times. They have some daily specious too like the burger which is fire. The musabi is soooo good. I wish they had it everyday. The pastrami sandwich is so good too. Is thick cut like brisket and doesn't taste like regular pastrami but still so good. I love this place

This Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives feature absolutely lives up to the national hype. It serves…read moreclassic backyard style BBQ with massive portions, high quality meats, and an atmosphere that makes it a true standout. 3 Meat Combo with Brisket, Pulled Pork, and Pork Ribs (5/5): The brisket is the star of the show, coming out incredibly tender, generously portioned, and perfectly marbled without being overly fatty. The pork ribs are wonderfully juicy and packed with deep flavor, pairing nicely with the complimentary sweet BBQ sauce even though they do not strictly need it. Unlike most places where the pulled pork dries out, this one stays remarkably moist and savory throughout. Chili (4/5): A very unique side that is much thinner and more watery than a traditional chili, holding a texture closer to a thin spaghetti sauce. Despite the looser consistency, it is absolutely packed with a variety of delicious smoked meats in every single bite. Mac and Cheese (5/5): An exceptional side dish and a clear favorite of the meal. It's incredibly rich, creamy, and distinctively flavored with sharp cheddar, which gives it a much bolder and more satisfying punch than standard restaurant mac and cheese. Corn Bread (5/5): This side functions almost like a dessert, boasting an incredibly sweet, vanilla cake like taste. The high level of sweetness provides a nice contrast to the intense salt, smoke, and savory flavors of the massive meat plate. Logistics Tip: Parking is limited but manageable between the two adjacent lots, and there is a clean restroom on site. To help beat the intense heat, they generously provide complimentary bottles of ice cold water. Keep in mind that they hosted live music on the late Saturday morning that we went. While it adds a fun, energetic backyard vibe, it can get incredibly loud and makes chatting with friends difficult, so you may want to bring ear protection or plan your arrival time accordingly.

First thing's first: they do NOT play about portions... you get hella food with each combo Everything was on point, the meats were flavorful, tender, and cooked right. The sides held their own too, which always matters. We even stopped in the meat market before leaving and grabbed some chicken and beef links, some frog legs, and a few bones for the dogs The live music was a nice touch and really added to the vibe, and even though they were busy, the wait time honestly wasn't bad at all. Only thing I wasn't really feeling were the sauces, they just weren't my favorite. But everything else hit, so it didn't even matter much. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the mood for some solid BBQ

I had a great experience and am going to bring back some friends.

This is a solid barbecue joint. Service was great. Atmosphere is awesome…read more I had a two meat platter with an additional sausage link. I had the fatty brisket in the pulled pork. The sausage was a jalapeño cheddar sausage. For my side, I had mac & cheese and coleslaw. To start off, this is a great place. If I could give it 4 1/2 stars I would but I like to round up. Brisket is really good but a little dry in the mouth. Great Smoky flavor. The mouth-feel was just a little off. It was a little dry, but not bad. The pulled pork was wonderful. Nice Smoky flavor. Nice and tender and juicy. Felt great to chew in my mouth and did not feel dry. A+ for the Pork. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was amazing. Really well done. Flavor was great texture was great. Just a little kick, which was great. I always wish there was more kick, but I understand you got a cater to your customers. One thing I was kind of concerned about was the temperature of the coleslaw. It should be really cold, but it was just kind of a little bit of above lukewarm, but not really cold. Coleslaw should be cold. The mac & cheese was pretty good. Needs a little bit more liquid in it but the flavor was awesome. And it looks like they prepackage the Mac 'n cheese in containers and then sprinkle some cheese on top. That's a nice touch, but it makes the whole container of mac & cheese dry out. They only have one barbecue sauce. It was pretty good. But to me the best way to judge barbecue is if it doesn't eat barbecue sauce. And this did not need barbecue sauce. It was just a nice addition. Great ambience. Great music playing. Very clean and well kept area. I would definitely come back when I'm on this side of town.
