    We came here for lunch after a recommendation from a fellow co-worker. It is ticked away in a little strip mall. We were the first to arrive at 11:00 am and were seated right away. We had the lunch special and ordered Spicy Brisket, Short Ribs, Spicy Teriyaki Chicken, and Cajun Shrimp. The meats were average and the Ribs did have quite a bit of fat on them. My friend had never been to Korean BBQ. It was a great experience for his first time but I have been to better Korean BBQ places. They also have Ramen Station where you can cook your own noodles. The ambiance was not too noisy but I see how this place can get busy at dinner. Apparently, they have had some mad reviews after this place was posted on Tik Tok. I think this is a fun to visit but I don't think I will rush back anytime soon.

    This is one of our family's favorite kbbq spots! If it's a busy night, you check in thru yelp and place yourself in line. You must ask for banchan now, they don't just lay it out all on you. We've been going since they opened, and I'm impressed that service is still great after all these years! I do feel like their banchan and quality has gone downhill a bit though. They do a lot of parties and such so it can get rowdy at times!

    Saw on social media they had chimichurri sauce but nope!

    Layout/atmosphere is great and the servers are very attentive for the most part.. our grills became super burnt a few times before it got changed out though. More upsetting is that we got bamboozled 3 times during our meal lol! I wanted to come here because I saw on social media they had chimichurri (my fav) sauce but nope, not ready for the public yet apparently? Then I ordered a side of kimchi fried rice but it was just white rice with kimchi mixed in (still good) lol. Their ramen noodle options are very misleading.. there's a whole panel/display of a ton of diff types of ramen but literally only 4 to actually choose from; also, there was another display panel with 2 rows of non-meat toppings to add on but only 4 in the actual fridge lol. Yikes!

    There was a lot of hype around this place so I had to come try it out. It ended up being a let down. My friend had called about 4 days before to make a reservation for 14 of us, as it is a big group and of course be courteous. We get to the restaurant and there is no host to be seen and the staff are running around keeping up with how busy it is and turning a blind eye to those coming in. There's only an iPad that allows you to join the Yelp waitlist. We see how busy it is and there is obviously no tables "reserved" for 14 at 7pm on a Monday night. We were able to flag down a server and he said that there were no reservations for 14 made despite my friend calling twice to confirm. We instead had to join the hour long waitlist despite making a reservation days before. We stopped by hmart to waste some time and long last, we finally sat down at 8:30. We ordered with an older lady server and she seemed to be rushing us through. We requested white rice multiple times throughout our meal to which she mistook as kimchi fried rice which came out before our white rice. Our meats came out on a robot and were very good quality. Banchan, corn cheese, and fried chicken were skippable. The ambiance was startling with so much going on. It gave moreso a pocha/pub feel with the tvs and loud output. Maybe it was because of the size of the group that we didnt have the best time but regardless, our dining experience should be way better than what we got.

    Our daughter wanted to try a new place for dinner, and this place did not disappoint, the food was excellent the service was outstanding our server John was great and talked us thru everything, the decor was cute, I absolutely loved the little cat robot helper that was serving the tables.. we will definitely be back!

    Had a great dinner here, definitely was very busy when we went, so I understood the wait, but it wasn't even a long wait. Our food was delivered by robot and the staff were on top of changing the grills very regularly. We did have a little trouble getting attention to the staff for drink refills, but not a huge deal. This is a great place to go for KBBQ but you do have to cook for yourself. I know that is standard, but I still prefer to ones that have someone cook for you, but that is personal preference. Overall good experience

    the wait wasn't too bad considering it was a saturday night. service was quick and attentive. the prices are unbeatable!

    We had out of town guest who wanted to do Korean BBQ and we have never been here so decided to try it . There was a total of 6 of us which one was a vegetarian . First our waitress told us over 6 times that the Veggi person can't eat any of the sides or we would get charged $40 , she can't even taste it . Ok no problem we will pay for one or two dishes she wanted to try . She was extremely rude n not accommodating at all . Anytime we asked her anything she would give us a rude response and laugh . The quality of the food was ok. We will never go here or recommend this place !! Anyone want Korean bbq please go to GEN ! Always great service and great selections !!! And quality meats !

    Tried MOODAEPO Korean BBQ in Carrollton for dinner with my daughter. We when with the $29.99 all you can eat option, they also have a $39.99 full Menu. The place was pretty packed but service was fast, and the food came out fresh every time. Lot of meat choice to grill plus ramen noodle included, which was a nice bonus . The ambiance was lively and casual, great for group or family dinners. Definitely worth checking out for a fun and filing meal !

    My daughter was in town and wanted to try this place. She doesn't live in the DFW area but one of her friends told her to try this place. So we gave it a try. Walking in there really wasn't much direction given so we kind of just stood there until someone noticed how lost we looked I guess. The place was slightly dark but there was enough light to see. One of the staff members walked us to a table and said he would be back with waters. The place wasn't super packed but it looked like the staff ran it well. It seems everyone had a role to play. The waters came quick along and someone came to turn on the grilling area. We perused the menu and was truly lost so we asked for help and a kind employee explained how the all you can eat works. Once we got that figured out we began to order items and before we knew it, we had a million small plates show up. OMG the table was so full and we sat there looking at one another like what now?! Lol. Finally we figured out to start cooking and enjoying so we did just that. The proteins were all seasoned pretty good but the sides I was so unfamiliar with but did try some of the various items brought out. I really wasn't a fan of the sides. So I stuck to the cooked protein and white rice. Can't go wrong with that. The experience went pretty quick and we opted not to order another round of proteins considering you have to finish it all or be charged a fee for the leftovers.

    Great place for parties and large groups. Lots of options for meat and korean banchan. Very attentive staff! They even jave a ramyeon station you can customize it how you like. Will for sure come back with friends!

    If I had known, I wouldn't have gone. I came to this place because of an IG restaurant influencer I follow, who was probably paid to promote. It did not play out how I expected. Being a first-time 'guest', I walked in confused. The entrance feels like a back door entry with products stacked along the walkway, a dimly lit bar with no bartender, and no host to greet or guide you. Employees rushed by us with no acknowledgment that we were there. There was only one tiny iPad at the end of the walkway to sign into the waiting list, even though we had 'reserved' our time ahead. We awkwardly stood amongst the chaos & inventory hoping that someone would give us direction or call our name. A robot brings you your meat. We learned that we have to cook our own meats on a dimly lit grill in the center of the table. We hoped that we cooked the meat long enough to avoid salmonella. The fans aren't strong enough on the vent hood to suck up all the smoke, so one side of the table was overwhelmed with smoke. Our clothes smelled like a grease fire. The next part brought me back to my youth when my parents forced me to finish my dinner plate...There was a sign on the table that said we would be charged extra if we had any uncooked meat or leftover food. We had to cook every piece of raw meat, then we disguised our uneaten food underneath other items to avoid being punished for not eating/cooking our meats. You cook your own ramen as well, which is in individual packages, just like at home. There is a ramen bar where you pick the package, grab your pot, and then dispense hot water. We were surrounded by TVs. The K-pop & Korean media is all fine & good, but it was a bit overwhelming to have 15 different shows & screens surrounding you. While the meat selection & taste was good, the $30-$40 per person price was not worth all the hassle. Your dinner ticket will suggest leaving a tip of 18%-25%. Our server was nice, but the service was barely service. We did 70% of the work. I should've read reviews before assuming my IG influencer was trustworthy. Lesson learned.

We were a relatively larger group, around 11 people, so we got some of the tables in the open space. Since this is pocha, this was family-style group food. Rose tteobokki - Creamy and mildy spicy rose sauce. Plenty of rice cakes, strips of fish cakes, and some sausages as well. Corn cheese - Hot and cheesy, cannot go wrong with this. It was actually also free with proof of two Google/Yelp reviews. Steamed pork belly - I didn't get to try this but people who did said it was good! Stir fried bulgogi - Lots of shredded bulgogi; delicious! Kimchi pancakes - Great medium for a lot of the other dishes There was also a cheese bulgogi udon dish that was generously provided on the house. Those three words on their own are enough to know that they were delicious. Lastly, in terms of service, the staff were all in all timely with drinks and getting dishes out of the way. The total for everyone was about $275 which I thought was reasonable. Recommend!

The venue is designed to resemble a Prohibition-era speakeasy, with an entrance accessible through a rotary phone inside a red telephone booth (which actually works!). Our tour was led by Jamie, who shared his extensive knowledge as he guided us through the Prohibition Era alongside our concierge, Landon. The speakeasy features stunning floors made of 120-year-old Italian wood, beautifully decorated with art, books, and a selection of premium entertainment and spirits. Patrons can request "prescriptions," which are 2oz alcoholic shots inspired by the owner's grandfather, who was a pharmacist. Cocktails and friendly service was provided by Emma and Kyle, their services were a nod to Bob Ruede, RPB's renowned Intoxicologist, along with other award-winning bartenders recognized for their excellence in service and hospitality. Eric, the Cigar Attendant, is knowledgeable about how to properly enjoy an exceptional cigar experience. The Mafia Room is an exclusive space perfect for guys' and girls' nights, intimate events, corporate gatherings, and celebrations. While Red Phone Booth offers exclusive membership tiers with premium perks, you don't need to be a member to enjoy the Prohibition experience.
