    Happy Father's Day
    John E.

    This was my first time to a Korean barbecue. Was pleasantly surprised by how fresh the meat and vegetables or it was quite a fun experience very loud inside but very busy. We ordered the Adult Choice. Our server Suah was great made sure we had everything we needed and changed our hot pan out when needed. The inside still looks like the sizzler laughing out loud. But joking aside this place is somewhere you would want to try but make sure you go hungry.

    First time coming here and I would say that the higher than average prices were kind of justified. First, they have higher end cuts of meats, and the service was great. We ordered one cut of meat that was supposed to be on the high end, but when we had it, it was very tough and chewy. I wasn't planning on saying anything as there were a lot of other cuts of meats I wanted to try. Well, the server came by and asked specifically about that cut of meat so I told him the truth. I told him that it was fine and I did not want another serving. But he insisted and brought out another serving and cooked that dish for us. I tried this batch and it was worlds apart. Perhaps the first batch was just a bad batch. I was very happy to try it (again) and I very much appreciated the server's effort to rectify the experience. Overall, I would come back here again. The meats were fresh, the service was great, and it is a huge shopping center so parking is not an issue.

    The parking lot is spacious and lots of room in the restaurant. Went around noon on Sunday and got seated fairly quickly. Service was not bad and the staff were really nice. The food was pretty good. Like all place at all you can eat the first order of meat is the best quality and there after the quality of meat get cheaper. Overall a good place with 3 different options. Would come back again.

    Decent kbbq spot but what makes them standout is the insane amount of sauces and dips they offer so you can change up the flavor if you bites! I ordered my usual kbbq meats of beef brisket and pork jowl -- too bad the beef belly isn't offered in their lowest tier. I was able to enjoy these meets on a cheese fondue dip, wine salt, and chimichurri which were all so flavorful! Their service is also quick and they're proactive with grill changes which is awesome.

    There's a tablet near the front counter for check-in and we did experience a wait. The meat looked decent before cooking, but unfortunately, it turned out chewy and dry. We ordered the premium option, but didn't really get the 'wire grill' experience that we were expecting. There was a good amount of side dish options, which was a plus, but it was disappointing that we had to use our own grill to make corn cheese. Service was very slow overall, and it was difficult to flag down servers. A few of our orders were forgotten and we had to remind them. The ice cream machine was down but we were able to get tea from the self-serve station (they had coffee too). With so many better KBBQ options in the area, I'm not sure if this is the place that I would return to.

    TLDR: good for an ayce (you shouldn't expect $$$ quality), lots of sides, yes rice paper, soft serve!! and milk coffee = make an affogato!! + good service during non-peak hours no complaints :)

    I've been here a few times now & it's been delightful each time. The price is good for AYCE. The service is good and they are pretty attentive but there has been times it takes a while to see someone to order some more meat but it's brought out quickly after. The brisket is so good! We have also tried beef bulgogi & pork belly. I love all the sides you get here as well. The brisket sauce is tasty too! I definitely enjoy coming here while in the area.

    This is my 4th time coming in for dinner. We got the premium selection, and the crazy thing about this time was that the meats just seemed a lot more juicier than before. The non-marinated boneless and cubed short ribs, woodae galbi were soooo good. Our server Rotana and other servers were fantastic. Came by our table frequently to take our meat and drink orders. The good service got us all in a good mood, made us want to drink more and more =) We will be back for more!

    Steamed eggs

    Had this place bookmarked for a while so we decided it was time to finally try it. We went on black Friday around 330pm. I was worried it might be busy but we were seated within 5 minutes. Right at the front entrance are small claw machines. My daughter lives these things but for $1 each play, it gets real pricey, real fast. So be warned if you're bringing little ones. Once we were seated we were asked if we had dined there before. I told the server no. He told us there were different towers tiers and asked if we knew which one we wanted. Luckily, I looked over the menu earlier and knew what I wanted but if someone came in with zero knowledge of kbbq, they would be flustered without proper guidance. We went with the Choice tier(middle of 3) since it was our first time and I wasn't sure the $19/ person was with it. We came as 3 adults and 3 kids (12, 7, and 1). Kids prices are by height so I had 1 free, 1 half off, and 1 full priced. We were allowed to order 4 meats at a time. My husband ordered almost all the sauces to try since he really loves his sauces. I'm more of a soy sauce only type of girl. I did try the chimichurri though and did enjoy that. My husband ordered the patty steak since he was curious about it and he was pretty much a hamburger patty. He thought it was ok. My kids devoured he brisket. My 12 and 7 year old ate 3 plates between the two of them. My eldest also ate 3 steamed eggs. Kbbq is the only time I can get him to eat beef so I was happy to see him enjoying it. I enjoyed the seasoned beef and galbi, it wasn't too sweet. My mom liked the butter squid. The reason I took off a star was service. We had to constantly wave someone down to ask for more meats and anything else we needed. I don't need someone to be hovering but we had times we sat with no meat and water. I would say maybe because it was busy but the restaurant was more empty than full and I saw the servers chatting with each other constantly so it was hard to get any of their attention at times. All in all, worth a try. It's a 30-45 minutes drive for me though so I'm not sure how often I'll be back.

    Beef Brisket and Vegetables
    Liz L.

    Went to Ribs & Co on a Sunday around noon. As you walk in, there are cute games on the left side and everything was clean. We were seated right away, the side dishes were already placed on the table. We decided the Select Menu, for all you can eat Korean BBQ with Beef Brisket, Pork Belly, and Vegetables. We added sesame seed oil on the grill first, so the meat and vegetables can cook without sticking to the grill. The corn cheese and steamed egg were delicious too. The staff checked on us multiple times so we can place more meat and side orders. The staff was kind enough to check if the chili sauce was gluten free, and it's gluten free. We will be back again!

    This is spicy brisket!! Rib and Co is probably my most favorite ayce kbbq!!!!!

    Rib and Co is my all time favorite ayce kbbq spot. It has good vibes, clean, and has very friendly staff. I have always had bad experience at most kbbq spots but this spot is my fave in OC!!

    Came here for the soft opening a year ago and had a good experience so decided to come back today. It was very disappointing. We will not be back. Just gonna get straight to it. We did select AYCE 1) brisket first round was so thick. Brisket is supposed to be thinly shaved but it was thick and rough. Second round was a little better but I was already so turned off by low quality of the first round 2) japchae served is terrible. There were no vegetables and it just tasted bad. If you're not gonna make it right, don't serve it at all. **Dont be fooled that this place is good from the line/wait outside!! I always thought the restaurant was good because we'd see people waiting outside but it's because the waiting area is super small! It's filled with claw machines and small seating area. Some good things: 1) banchan cart lady was friendly. She goes around and refills banchan you want more of. Wait staff was fast 2) plenty of plaza parking Shocked and disappointed by how low quality the food was today. We definitely won't be back.

    Beef belly

    Nice ample parking, located in a plaza with lots of other stores and even a small AMC movie theater. We went seeing 4PM on a Thrusday and there was only a few other customers there. There were a lot of waiters providing nice and quick service. It was a really good price for the quality meats served. I loved that they offered various additional sauces like chimichurri, cowboy butter, wine salt, horseradish and many more. They were very mindful and warned us to kept the hot plates away from the baby as well as mindful each time there was a grill change, they made sure our baby was safe. And there was unlimited soft serve vanilla ice cream. We will be back for sure!!!

    If you have 2 people can 1 have the $55 and the other have $39?

    Unfortunately no, it's the rule of any KBBQ place. Everyone has to have the same menu type.

    Is that 55 a person?

    I recall kids are half off or something related to height and age have discounted rates. Def worth it!

    How long is the wait time?

    It varies and depends on the time of day. When I went between 12 PM and 3 PM, the wait time was only 15–30 minutes. When I came here at night, the wait time ranged from 45 to 90 minutes.

    Do they take reservations?

    No they do not

    How much for ayce for adults?

    $55 Premium. The option lower is $39.

    Do they cook for you?

    We did the cooking, but the staff checked on us regularly and would make a point to step in to cook at times.

    Kids have same price or all the same?

    I believe there is a different price for kids... not sure if it's height or age they go by tho.

    How do you make a reservation via yelp?

    I don't think they have this option on Yelp. Its a first come, first serve basis.

    Is there a limit for how many people allowed in your party to do ayce? I want to dine in by myself

    2 person minimum for AYCE!

Ever since then, it's become a regular spot for us. The owners Sonya and Mike are truly what make Colony special -- but so does their incredible staff. I can't say enough good things about Shalene, Molly, Camille... anyone we come in contact with is always so sweet and attentive. The wine selection speaks for itself. Sonya does a great job at bringing a rotating selection that we always enjoy. There is always a featured flight that, a great selection of white, red, and bubbles, and they even have some craft beers available as well. There is also a great selection of wine to purchase to take home with you after. But the food. Oh my, you don't just go to Colony for the wine because their food is absolutely FANTASTIC. You can't go wrong with their charcuterie, and let me tell you they have the BEST french fries in Orange County. The daily specials have never disappointed and on Tuesday nights you can't get one of the best grilled cheese around. We love visiting on Thursday nights because the owner Mike does live music on Thursdays where he sings and plays the guitar. This last year, my husband got us their wine membership which we have really enjoyed. Every other month you get a curated four wine selection and you get to come during a window to pick up your wine and you get two free flights to enjoy when you pick up. Pays for half the membership in itself. My only complaint? It's not closer to our house... which maybe is a good thing. And I won't deduct a star over it.

To our surprise, we were so thrilled to see Colony Wine Merchant had a good sized menu with various options to choose from: small bites, appetizers, entrees and dessert. We weren't too hungry so we opted for the daily sandwich of the day and their seasonal soup offering. Every bite from both items was enjoyed so much. The soup had the perfect consistency of creaminess followed by savory tomato flavor. It had some delicious (and I think) roasted potatoes, and the side of roasted sourdough with roasted tomatoes was perfection and really brought the dish together beautifully. The daily sandwich of the day was also fantastic! We remember biting into the sandwich and it melting in our mouth. The bread was beautifully crunchy and the meat with all its toppings inside couldn't have been any better. For our drinks, we opted to do a tasting of whites and reds. The wines were selected by our host (if I recall) and remember enjoying them all. It was fun to taste not only different varietals, but wines from different parts of the world. I was especially excited to see they had a really great selection of wine bottles to purchase in their wine shop. I happened to see one of my favorite ones there. We ended up purchasing a sparkling wine bottle at the end of our experience to have with our thanksgiving meal the following day. The service was A+. Every interaction from when we first walked in the door, being seated, being provided food recommendations, was a great experience. The ambiance is perfectly casual with a slight elevatedness to it. You don't have to wear a cocktail dress or tux to come here but it's definitely a perfect date night place or to come with friends and loved ones and enjoy a delicious meal followed by great wine. We were on a time crunch and wish we would have stayed to enjoy an actual entree but look forward to being back in town and visiting Colony Wine Merchant again.

Ambience on the inside as well as the outside are both pretty great. I've also never had a bad meal here, virtually all of their food is spectacular and made from scratch although their prices are not "cheap" they are also very fair, especially given the quality of food. The drinks are also dead on, they have a wide range of craft beer as well as a full bar. The service is great. The only thing I could think of the lands in the constructive arena is their live music. Sometimes they have open mic nights, other times they have a hired band or musician. The music is way, wayyy too loud. I don't mind live music, but it can't be so loud that you are unable to enjoy the company. Patrons should be able to talk to the person or the people next to them without being drowned out by the music. I recently came with friends for drinks and we were having a great time for the first 10 minutes we were there, but when the music started, we couldn't hear each other talk at all. So we just sat there quietly, drowned out to mediocre music. We all had another drink and then left. Might be a better idea to have the music loud enough to be slightly above background noise, but low enough where you can reasonably talk and listen to those around. Even ordering at the bar was tough. We would yell an order at the bartender, who would yell at back for confirmation. Often, exchanges in this dialogue included "what was that?"

Unfortunately, my experiences during the day have been the complete opposite, and both involved the same server, Tania B. The first incident occurred when I ordered my usual meal: the Steak Frites, cooked medium rare with the mushroom peppercorn gravy. When my meal arrived without mushrooms, I politely mentioned that it normally comes with them. Rather than checking with the kitchen or simply explaining the dish, Tania immediately insisted that it had never included mushrooms. I even asked if the recipe had recently changed because I had been there the previous week and it was served with mushrooms. She walked away, returned with a menu, tossed it on the table, and said, "It doesn't say mushrooms." Her tone and attitude were unnecessarily dismissive and unprofessional. Ironically, when I returned another evening and ordered the exact same dish, it was served with mushrooms. Today (7/31/26), I returned for lunch and, unfortunately, Tania was my server again. I ordered the Steak Frites medium rare, but it arrived closer to medium-well or well done. I politely explained that it wasn't cooked as ordered. She took the plate back, returned a few minutes later, and told me, "That's how it's going to be. Take it or leave it. The chef is the owner, and that's his message." I mentioned that last time she told me it didn't come with mushrooms and clearly there's mushrooms on my dish. She responds with, well sometime it does and sometimes it doesn't. I'm like so inconsistency is a thing here? She replies with if that's how you want to see it. I asked if I could speak with the owner directly, and she responded that he was "too busy making food" and refused to let me speak with him. My friend and I paid for the rest of our meal and were preparing to leave when I noticed another employee in the kitchen. I asked if he was the owner, and he explained that he wasn't and that the owner was actually downstairs. I simply asked if I could have Nick's phone number or email so I could share my concerns. The employee kindly said he would see what he could do. While we waited, Tania approached us multiple times in a confrontational manner instead of allowing us to wait peacefully. Rather than focusing on the guests seated at her bar, she seemed more interested in arguing with customers who had legitimate concerns. Throughout both visits, she displayed poor customer service, responded with attitude when simple requests were made (even something as basic as asking for a side of ranch seemed to annoy her), dismissed concerns instead of trying to resolve them, and escalated situations that could have been handled professionally in less than a minute. What makes this especially disappointing is that the restaurant itself is excellent. The food is consistently great, and Mario provides some of the best service I've experienced anywhere. Unfortunately, one employee can dramatically impact an otherwise outstanding restaurant. If Tania is, in fact, a manager as I was told, it's concerning. A manager should be setting the standard for hospitality, resolving guest concerns professionally, and de-escalating situations--not arguing with customers or making them feel unwelcome. I truly hope ownership addresses this because Pour Company deserves better representation than what I experienced. I would love to continue supporting this restaurant, but I will be avoiding daytime visits as long as this level of service continues.
