First time being here. Good environment, server Gaby is nice. The food are great. I will definitely recommend to friend

Melinda E.

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 .

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.

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!

This is my first time here, I was amazed by the service they provided was excellent. The food is great and the price is fabulous, I will definitely come back here again.

My boyfriend and I came in for our second visit to Mr. Kim's Korean BBQ, and it was just as amazing as the first! We were so happy to have Elena as our server again. She is incredibly friendly, attentive, and always makes sure we have everything we need. We also wanted to give a special shoutout to the busser we didn't catch his name, but we got to talking with him about how we had just moved here. He was so welcoming and even had the cooks make us a special sauce to try, which was such a thoughtful touch and made our experience even more memorable. The food is always delicious, the atmosphere is great, and everyone is so friendly. We already know we'll be back again. Highly recommend!

First time trying this place because some KBBQ restaurants don't allow solo diners and require a minimum of two people. I decided to give this place a try, and I'm glad I did. The atmosphere was great, Alondra(?) greeted me with a smile and the manager, Elizabeth was very approachable and friendly. She was always smiling and genuinely looked like she loves what she does. The service was excellent, and I felt very welcomed throughout my visit. Food was good. Sauce is the best. Make sure to ask for extra cause you'll crave for more I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

*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!!

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

I keep coming back, which says something in itself…read more Every Thursday they feature burgers, and they always have their signature Dandan: two 100% brisket patties quick-fried in tallow, topped with cheddar cheese and Dandan sauce on a butter-griddled brioche bun. This week they also offered two specials -- the Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions) and the Jalapeño Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions and jalapeños). The Dandan has been on my list for a while, so I finally pulled the trigger. I called around 11:30 a.m. and was promptly helped by a friendly employee. After a quick chat about which of the three was best, I went with the Jalapeño Oklahoma and a side of Brussels sprouts. I've had the sprouts before and really liked them -- they felt like a slightly healthier alternative to the usual fried sides. (Though when I arrived to pick up my order, it seemed like everyone else was happily devouring onion rings, which made me second-guess that choice.) As expected, there was a line stretching out the door. I quickly realized I was the only one actually waiting outside. Several people walked straight in, bypassed the line, and got helped right away. Turns out a group of 3-4 people had already ordered and were just hanging out inside in the AC while they waited. Lesson learned: if you've already placed your order, just walk in next time. While I waited, the staff brought out an ice-cold cup of their fresh cantaloupe juice. It's very sweet and genuinely delicious -- highly recommend. I took everything to go and ate at home, so I can't speak to temperature. The burger was big and loaded with meat and cheese -- you couldn't really see the jalapeños or onions at first, but they announced themselves with the first bite. The brisket patties cooked in tallow deliver a deep, rich beef flavor. They're a little firmer than a standard burger (as expected with brisket), so if you're someone who likes a lot of vegetables and toppings, this might not be your ideal burger. But if you're after a straight-up, beef-forward, no-frills experience, you won't be disappointed. The Brussels sprouts were excellent as always -- perfectly balanced with a sweet-tangy balsamic glaze. Let's be honest... I'll definitely be back. Next time I'm trying the classic Dandan -- and those onion rings.

We love this place for their amazing bbq. The first time we went with my mother and sister in law…read moreand loved our lunch. Everyone had nothing but great things to say (even the most hard to please ones). Today, we ordered take out and it was equally as good and this will be a weekly stop for a great quality protein for an easy work night dinner.

We said no and she gave us the look like we should have had one and she didn't know if she would be able to seat us because she had no room...When in reality the place was empty.... Huge red flag. Food: We ordered two brisket burgers, sliced brisket and St Louis ribs. It took 30 minutes to get our food which seemed odd since the place was mostly empty like I said. We got our food and the brisket and ribs were lower end of mid level bbq but this isn't Texas and we expected that. The burgers were absolutely unacceptable! Dry with zero toppings and looked like they were stamped for shape then frozen. The burgers had a smell like the meat was rotten or had turned and then cooked anyway. At the end of our time we told our waitress we were ready for the check. She proceeds to gas light us into thinking they provide free refills to go. When in fact they offer them but, charge you for it without informing you. Only when you get the check for review do you realize what just happened. I don't recommend this place... save your money and go somewhere else in the arts district.... You will be glad you did.

We decided to try this place today after hearing good things…read more First impression, I love the decor. Very Texas. Post Oak stored right inside the restaurant. It reminded me of a real Texas barbecue with the big picnic tables and communal seating. Very friendly and helpful staff. I had the 3 meat (chicken, baby backs, and jalapeno hot links) and the wife had the 1 meat (brisket) We shared some sides Mac n cheese, green beans, and fries. The chicken was very juicy and perfectly cooked. We both agree that the baby backs were some of the best we've ever had. The jalapeno/cheese links were delicious. The brisket was good. Still moist and juicy. They ask you if you want a lean or fatty cut on the brisket. She chose lean (I would have chosen fatty ) Their regular barbecue sauce made everything better. The green beans were delicious and perfectly seasoned. The baked beans were a tiny bit sweet. The fries were perfect. The mac and cheese had good flavor but the pasta was overcooked. Oh, I decided to try the banana pudding. GET IT! It's f*cking delicious! We will definitely be back!

If you are a fan of Pawn Stars it is a really cool spot and definitely worth seeing in person. After we finished we were sitting outside waiting for our son to pick us up and kept smelling amazing barbecue. We had no idea there was a BBQ place right there but once we realized we decided to head over and I am really glad we did. So we ended up dining at Rick's Rollin Smoke BBQ and Tavern, which is right across the way from the Pawn Stars pawn shop. It was a great experience from the start. We got there just before the rush which worked out perfectly. The staff was friendly and everything came out quickly. The food was excellent. The cornbread was really good and buttery, the collard greens were excellent, and the beans were also superb. The barbecue chicken and ribs were great as well. Everything was just really, really, really excellent. The barbecue sauce was fantastic too with both spicy and mild options. Overall just a really great experience. Next time we are back in Vegas we will definitely be stopping by again. If you are visiting the Pawn Stars shop do yourself a favor and walk right across to this BBQ spot. You will not be disappointed. Shucks, we forgot to get their Peach Cobbler!!!
