My family's favorite spot for the last few years quality is going down slightly, but still very good

rose was nice and very helpful also very sweet. on time and very helpful . I would recommend this for everyone who is eating and want helpful service and great food read more

I went to Master Korean BBQ place multiple times with my significant other and they have good quality of food options of each types of Korean BBQ foods as well as good slides for all you can eat. My favorite one is the beef bulgogi with corn cheese on the side Cool robots assist in serving your table, and because the food is automatically placed, it slides through more easily. The servers at this establishment are a little slow because they are largely understaffed during the day, which is regrettable on weekends. 10 out of 10 I would definitely go back there with family, friends and my significant other because it's a best place to celebrate with great food and social time. I didn't think it was worth the extra $5-6 for shrimp; choosing the basic AYCE and getting the necessities was plenty. I might return if I have a craving for Korean food because it's close to my house. Always remember to join the waitlist early to prevent from waiting for a long time at the restaurant. read more

We love the Master Kim KBBQ chain, and this second location did not disappoint. The beef tongue, lamb, brisket, duck, ribeye, and New York steak all came out fresh and well-prepared. Everything tasted clean and high quality. I also loved the cilantro salad so much that I ordered a second one. Highly recommend! definitely one of the best Korean BBQ spots in town! read more

The meat quality was good, and we enjoyed the fun touch of having the robot deliver our food. However, the overall service could have been better. Our server could have been friendlier, and some of the side dishes, such as the cucumber salad and garlic, took a long time to arrive when delivered by staff. The cilantro salad also ran out while we were there, which was disappointing. One item I would not recommend is the pistachio ice cream. It had a very unpleasant taste, and I'd suggest removing it from the menu. Overall, the food quality for the price was good, but the service and a few menu details could use some improvement. read more

WORST location I've been to so far. The service here SUCKS. It's 100% worth it to drive to the Spring Mountain location. Our most recent server was Jett. She was not attentive to our table. We had to flag her down EVERY single time. We saw her talking to the other servers the entire night - even though we made it very obvious that we needed something. I caught her rolling her eyes when I asked for another order of meat. She had an unnecessary attitude and was extremely disrespectful. Of course the slow service ruined our appetite so we did NOT get our moneys worth. Calling for an internal review on Jett please!! AVOID THIS LOCATION AT ALL COSTS AND REQUEST ANOTHER SERVER BESIDES JETT. 0/10 read more

Not happy at all with our last visit. The visit prior to this last one was mid so we decided to give Master Kim's one more chance to see if it was just an off day. But nope, even with being able to go on the waitlist from home or reserving a spot (which a lot of AYCE KBBQ in Vegas don't have available), it's not worth it. The price for kids under 4 foot is $18. If they are shorter than 5 foot it's $5 off. So basically unless your child is 1 year old or tiny, you will be paying $18 for them to eat a bowl of rice. The price is whatever, however, while our server was friendly and nice, half the food we ordered never came. I don't know if it was the server forgetting to input items or the back kitchen. We had to ask MULTIPLE times for the same items and never got 3 other ones. Of course those items were for the kids too. Not sure if it was a lack of staffing or what. Other tables who were sat after us also got their food AND the items we were waiting for before us. I think it's just ridiculous that we ask multiple times and we are literally seeing the other tables get exactly what we asked for. Their ventilation also sucks. I thought the last visit was just the fan we had because it was making a weird noise. But after our last visit, it's clear that their ventilation is not good. I hate to put bad reviews but even waiting 60+ minutes at another KBBQ spot is better than the service we recieved here especially with the amount of money they knew we were going to spend. To say they fell short would be an understatement. 2 stars only because the food was tasty. read more

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. read more

Master Kim's Korean BBQ - Cold Noodles - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

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. read more

Great food ! Awesome service and nice atmosphere. Definitely will return ! Pricing was very fair for what we got

Food is great Service is great Ambiance is great Worth the money to eat during lunch time here or between lunch and dinner. read more

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. read more

Master Kim's Korean BBQ - Beef Bulgogi Bento Meal - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

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. read more

Kimo was our server and was a very pleasant surprise to have such a dedicated and helpful person taking care of us tonight. Food was delivered in a timely manner and if there was a slight issue, Kimo would immediately get on it and made it his responsibility to find a solution for us. It's very hard to impress us since one of us works as a Chef and is very particular however, that gladly wasn't the case tonight! read more

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! read more

Master Kim's Korean BBQ - Grilling meats - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

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. read more

I love the conveyor belt for delivery of food! Makes it feel fast! However, it is sooo Smokey in here! Almost worse than any other place I've been. Wish there were more sides offered...meat quality was fine. But I feel like there are better places for KBBQ around town that are more worth their price. read more

Went on a weekday for lunch, the place was almost empty. The cut of meat of steak, beef bulgogi was good, the tripe was tough n horrible, In general service was good. Choose the basic AYCE n get the basics was adequate, paying extra $5-6 for shrimp was not worth it for me. It is close to where i live so i may go again when i crave for Korean food! read more

Just an ok experience so will not be going back as there are so many better options. Service was very friendly and good came out super quick. The spicy pork was a nice spicy and sweet balance. Bibim naeng myun was not very good - too much sesame seed oil. Some essentials were missing like green onion salad. Also the choice of meats for the cheaper version is not as good as the other places. read more

Master Kim's has always been our go-to for Korean bbq. But this location has never failed us. The service is quick and the servers are always on top of our needs. Our server today was Lance and he went above and beyond for service. The meat is always top quality and the sides never disappoint. If ever you're craving bbq, this place is your spot. read more

It's AYCE place. I was happy to see I have an option to order lunch special only and not AYCE. Food decent. Nothing spectacular. I do like their lunch sets. Ordered lunch set: spicy pork and tofu soup and lunch sets: kalbi. Portion good. Price good. Tummies satisfied. read more

What a bargain! I'm a huge fan of galbi jjim but it's always quite pricey, however here at Master Kim's, the 50% off promotion puts it at $41 for the spicy version + $5 for the cheese- it was a generous portion and so delicious. I got mild and only wish it was a tiny bit spicier, but the flavor was delicious. We also got a small pork bossam at $14.99 and this delicious. The pork was so soft and the sides were perfect compliment to the dish. Definitely will visit again and try the other dishes. read more

Amazing service and good food. Would be back soon. Everything was clean and well maintained

First time here! Highly recommend this place! Lance our server was beyond attentive and performed outstanding service! :) read more

Whenever we visit Vegas, Master Kim's is definitely one of the restaurants that we almost always visit! Like most KBBQ spots, this place can get busy depending on what time you come. We like to go right when they open so that we're seated right away. This place is always clean and the service has always been great. The servers are very helpful in explaining items on the menu and are even willing to suggest items for us to try. One of the reasons why we like going here is because my kids love how the food comes out in a train next to the table. It's hard to explain, but it's such a fun experience for my kids to get the food for the table! And the ice cream at the end is always good too ;) read more

This was a fabulous place to get Korean BBQ while visiting Vegas and wanting great 'off the strip' food. Food was fantastic and prices were reasonable for the quality and taste. Great ambience for a date night or even for families. Service was fantastic. Staff was super friendly and helpful. They came around very often to take empty plates and check on us. They also have a cool robot belt system that brings out the food to you. We're definitely coming back and bringing friends with us when we're in Vegas again. read more

This was not a good dinner experience. It smelled terrible to me from all of the grills and we should have just turned around and left. The sliced meat my son ordered came out frozen. I tasted the cheese corn, which is usually a safe bet, and it was not good, it had an unexpected onion taste. I could not eat anything else due to the smells and frozen meats being unappetizing, and they still did charge me for a full meal. We left hungry. To remain positive, I can say that their bathrooms are very clean. Service was fine, and they were quick to change the grill pans timely, but none of the food was worth it, will not be going back. read more

Food: 4/5 Dessert Bonus: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Another AYCE, we opted for the "B" option, and everything was satisfactory. Side dishes were small portions, but we ordered more without issue. The stand-out bad item was the LA Kalbi, of 6 pieces only 3 were edible, the rest were pure fat. Stand-out great item was the Salted Angus Beef Boneless short ribs, amazing! Service was great, food kept coming as we ordered. One more thing of note, there's conveyor belts that bring the meat to you, that's situated on either side of you depending where you sit. All cooked items are still dropped off by the waiter. It seems their exhaust system is lacking, it was quite smoky (even by K-BBQ standards) so that was not so pleasant. Overall, not terrible, but there are better options. read more

The food is always great! The Durango location lately has seemed under staffed. The staff is doing a great job but they seem stressed.

Selection was good even on A menu (wasn't as hungry when we arrived) service was good.

I've been a loyal diner to every Master Kim's location including this one, but last night I think the staff and from what I'm told, the manager, had poor judgement in courtesy and service at this location. This review is not on the food, because we didn't get to the food. I arrived around 10:35 pm and checked in with the hostess who said it would be 5-10 min to get a table ready. No problem, we took a seat on the bench. I watched as a few parties left the standard 4 person booths and the staff would clean and turn them over. After about 10 minutes the hostess does call my name to seat me. However she doesn't seat me at a table that was just cleaned, the table she sat me at had been empty the entire time. This was no issue to me, but upon sitting down the draft wind from being the very first booth in front was a bit much and I knew I would feel cold still. I flagged de hostess and asked if we could move to the same size table that was near the kitchen and that had just been cleaned. I watched the hostess go to the back kitchen and have some conversation. She returns and says, "I asked the manager and unfortunately that table is reserved and we cannot move you." I was really surprised as I'm quite sure any reservation at Master Kim's doesn't assign a table. If I were to presume, it could have been that a specific server was waiting for a specific party in their section. That's just speculation but again, I know that anytime I make a reservation, there is no table assigned. Also, the table I'm asking for is the same size table that I was seated at. While I understand sections of tables were closed, there was opportunity for management to perhaps even say that the table I asked for isn't available but I could wait for another party who was likely about to leave. This was 10:45 pm. When I go out to dine, I feel that to feel comfortable - including not being in front of a drafty door (it was cool last night as far as temp) is not a difficult ask. I felt the excuse to not move us was poor especially given it was the SAME size table. I chose not to dine there, I left. I won't be returning. read more

I would probably give this another try but not any time soon. The place got loud because of some drunk guests and owner didn't do anything to control the customer. read more

Came here with my husband because I was craving ayce Korean bbq. This is located in the southwest area so it's convenient for us without having to travel to Chinatown. There's different tears that you can choose from and every tier gets a little bit more expensive. My husband and I just chose the a tear, which was enough for the both of us. The meat comes through like a convertible belt, which I thought was cool. There's a lot of banchans to choose from and my husband really love their steamed egg. We came here on a random weekday so it was not busy at all. Place was clean and service was great. Will be coming back. read more

We've been to the Master Kim location on Las Vegas Blvd and wanted to try this location. This one is located just a few minutes from the Durango Casino. Interior looks similar to the other location with a conveyer belt the brings your ordered items to your table. Service was excellent. Our server checked up on us often and got our orders in quickly and correctly. We did Menu A, which was sufficient for us. Good variety of the standard Kbbq turns. Side dishes and appetizers were also very good. Favorite meats were the spicy pork, marinated short rib, and beef brisket. Also included at the end of the meal is complimentary ice cream if you still have room in your stomach. read more

Food was wonderful! Service was excellent! Although I don't think it was fair that 2 kids under 10 got charged for rice and plain chicken @$30 each when I was told 3 times they were going to be $18 each..the bill didn't reflect that. Overall it was great! read more

First time shopping experience looks great. As we came at the 11:00AM on Wednesday, no need to wait. All meats were delivered by machine instead of a cart, no interruption of dinning. All seasonings and condiments were well prepared, that is a great point! We chose the premium $44.99 per person. Some meats are allowed to have only one time while the regular ones unlimited. read more

Love going to KBBQ. It's a must once a month. This location did not disappoint. Waitress was very attentive. It was the first time my firmed ever did this, and we enjoyed it all. Food, like always, great! Went on a Sunday evening, not too busy, but made reservations anyways. read more

Justin is one of the best servers we have had, to the point where we call ahead to see if he is working. As always, the food is amazing and I love that they play music loud enough to hear but not too loud where we can't hear each other.
