    Grill
    Chloe N.

    Lively atmosphere even late at night. In terms of the meats/ seafood, the seafood options were pretty limited and the meats tasted average. The portions were on the small side so you would have to keep ordering multiple times to get a decent portion. They also had a limit on the ny strip steak (1 per person and it was quite small). However, they do have a good variety of sides that includes soups. That being said, this place has greay service! The server was attentive and was able to get the food and grill up and running quickly when I told her I was starving. She also changed our grill regularly. This place has good value and offers discounts if you dine a few hours close to closing. They also give you a voucher for free karaoke next door! Just your average kbbq place.

    Premium quality meat and friendly vibes. I love eating here the lunch special is a very good deal. Hands down five star Korean bbq place.

    Let me start by saying the customer service was great and the wait for food was never long. I see they're under new management so maybe there's been some improvements. The price point for this place for their regular tier of Korean bbq is great. The bulgogi was on point and the veggies were fresh. I like to see more of a variety of sushi on the list but this was a great option for a late lunch . We went around 4-5pm so it was actually empty (and on a weekday) . I was told to come back because the nighttime weekend vibe is a lot different. Overall, I'd revisit this place and hope to see items added to the menu .

    Hey Yelp!

    The food was 4 stars. My server, EJ was 6 stars. All together it's 5 stars for me. I didn't come here to eat. It was 3:30. I was stopping in the parking lot to get some tea from Mama Chai's. I decided to stick my head in to see what Mr. Kim's was about. I looked around and before I knew it they had me seated with a menu. Boy! They're good! I always just get a seafood tofu soup when I eat at Korean restaurants maybe with a side or two. Here you get AYCE so you might as well have the BBQ. And for the first time ever I grilled at my table. And it was fun! I thought it would be hot with the grill there. It wasn't. The ventilation sucked the heat downward I supposed. I got the classic level, which was the cheapest at like $27. I wasn't hungry, so I wasn't going crazy. I asked for the octopus and squid to start. The meats and fish were really good. The sides were really mediocre. I was informed there was no squid and was offered shrimp. That ended up being the best thing I ate. I've never cooked at my table before and I've never cooked octopus before, so this was a totally new experience. EJ was amazing. She was tall and thin and could easily have been a model. Today she was teaching me how to cook octopus. She cut up the octopus for me and showed me how it turned from translucent to white. She spent a lot of time with me and made me feel special. She really is an amazing person. I ordered tofu soup, spicy tuna roll, edamame and jalapeno appetizer. The edamame was good. The tofu soup tasted like tomato soup. It was mild. That was weird. No egg in the soup either. The jalapeno appetizer was mostly cream cheese. The tuna was sparse. I normally would love these. This one missed the mark. The spicy tuna roll was covered in teriyaki sauce and that made it a 4/10 for me. The rice was overcooked and the sauce was yucky on spicy tuna. The first thing to be done were my shrimp, which had a good char. I removed the heads and shell and my fingers were sticky after. It was SO good. They give you 4 shrimp. I wish I would have gotten 12 shrimp and the octopus and stopped there. The octopus was finished next. It was spicy but not hot. It was very manageable. The tentacles were tender and fresh. It was quite lovely. This place is trendy and rap music played. It was pretty full for 3:30 pm. The colorful squares glowed and rings of light illuminated the dining area. EJ came back to check on me and recommended the teriyaki chicken. I was getting full but did it anyways. I got it with the jalapeno side and vegetable side. It looked done to me until EJ came and chopped it up. It was still pink in the middle. She brought me a sauce that I poured over the chicken and veggies as they cooked. I have no clue what it was. It looked like a broth. I sprinkled salt and pepper over everything. And then I got so full. I did drink a lot of water. I couldn't finish my chicken and EJ didn't make me. It says there is a charge if you don't eat it all. I was grateful she was so kind. She offered ice cream and I said I could not. She brought me the bill and shook my hand introducing herself. I would come back again just for EJ. Thank you for making my first time so much fun, EJ!

    Came in without any expectations, but we had a great experience! The staff was super friendly, the restaurant was clean and welcoming, and the service was excellent. They have a great variety of menu options, so it's perfect for families with kids. The meat quality was also really good. We'll definitely be back!

    Make no mistake! Double check your reservation. This is NOT Master Kim's down the street! We made this simple mistake, but since table was ready, we gave Mister an honest try. Of all the meats and sides ordered, just the potato salad arrived long before the meats. Men hungry. Quality not great. Offered grill change often but when took off grill, kid taking time chatting up other tables before returning to our table with clean grill! Men hungry! Inedible Steamed Egg arrived last after 3rd round, even though it was ordered with first round. The birthday parade with stadium horn and matraca was annoying and made one wonder where we were? Hey, we tried. GM626 say: Nah! Nevamind!

    Incredible service! Our server, Gabby, was amazing! Consistently checked up on us, refilled our banchan and took our regular orders so quickly! Love this spot, everyone is so warm and friendly. The kimchee, cucumber kimchi, and radish is sooo good! Also Gabby was great at catching us mentioning a friend's birthday! Thanks Gabby and Mr. Kim's.

    I was looking forward to finally trying Mr. Kim's and enjoyed the food but service timing could have been better. I took my niece and her two friends who were in town. We made reservations for an early dinner at 4:30pm on a Saturday. We arrived on time and no one else was waiting but it still took them about 15 minutes to seat us. It took awhile to even be acknowledged. Once seated we had a super friendly server, Elena. We went with the middle tier of the AYCE, the Premium. The proteins were all great. We especially enjoyed the Ribeye and the Pork Belly. They have lots of sides to choose from. A soup is also included. I had the Spicy Tofu which was delicious, not too spicy for me. The Shrimp Tempura and Gyoza was a hit with us. The Jalapeño Bomb, not so much, dry and bland if that makes sense. The let down was the sides took so long to bring out. A couple of times we had to ask if one of them was still coming because they wouldn't bring out a complete order. Since they would bring out a side one at a time, apparently when it was ready, they would lose track of what they brought out. They need a little more organization in that respect. The restaurant is the bright with natural light as well as colored lighting through. Very clean and inviting atmosphere. A scoop of ice cream is also included for dessert, the Green Tea Ice Cream was good. Food is great but service timing just ok. Not the servers fault, she was wonderful; so the kitchen and bussers could improve. So many AYCE Korean BBQ places even just in that area they need to get their food out more timely.

    *Celiac Review This place has both all you can eat and all a cart menu options. There are 2 sauces that are gluten free. The kimchi is also gluten free. The server takes the allergy seriously and will check the allergy chart to make sure it is safe to consume. There are many unmarinated meats here that feel high cut for good all la cart prices. If there is another meat that you would like to try I was even offered that they could check if they could get it unmarinated. I felt super safe eating here and more than welcomed by this establishment. Even when it gets busy the staff treats you like a friend coming over to eat at their house and are super hospitable. There are music videos playing on the wall but they are not too loud that you can not hear your conversation. Everything about the restaurant feels clean and comfortable. David is doing an amazing job making sure everyone that walks through the doors is well fed and happy by the time they leave. It is worth the venture to the area. Warning you may want to come back more than once if you are visiting from out of town. Please bring one to Houston!!

    John Mull's Road Kill Grill is a MUST TRY in Las Vegas!…read more Everything we had was absolutely amazing. From the cornbread and creamy mac & cheese to the incredible brisket, every bite was on point! The brisket literally melts in your mouth, the rib tips are fall-off-the-bone tender, and the sausage links come out smoky, juicy, and packed with flavor. You can smell that BBQ goodness before you even take the first bite! The portions are great, the flavors are incredible, and this is exactly what you want when you're looking for some REAL BBQ in Vegas. If you're in Las Vegas, do yourself a favor and stop by John Mull's Road Kill Grill. Come hungry, you won't be disappointed! 5 stars all day!

    Plate 1: brisket, ribs, mac, yams Plate 2: brisket, links,…read moregreens, potato salad Plate 3: ribs, chicken, greens, yams Dessert: apple cobbler The food was amazing. Great grill and smoke on the meat. Ribs and brisket were moist and tender. Got to taste the burnt ends and they are CHEF'S KISS. I was pleasantly surprised by the sides. The yams and greens were my favorite. The hubby loved the mac. I usually skip bread at bbq restaurants but the cornbread is a must. The location is slightly unassuming but what it offers is incomparable. I'm so glad to find a place in Vegas with great bbq and AMAZING service. Shout out to the two folks working the counter around lunchtime today. It takes both talent and heart to confirm orders, make plates, and have customers feel cared about. I'll be back again and again.
