Go for the KBBQ but make sure to try their cold noodle soup!…read more Came here for dinner with a couple friends. They used to eat cold noodle soup at a restaurant that's gone now so we were craving it. There's a small parking lot and a long line to get in so just be aware of that, but it's well worth the wait. Typical old school KBBQ vibes inside with a ton of staff running around. They were all very friendly and helpful, always on top of things. We got a nice big combo set for the KBBQ portion as well as a couple cold noodle soups. The banchan was very good and fresh, the meat quality is excellent, and the cold noodle soup hit the spot on a hot day. Brisket was melt in your mouth tender and the pork belly was the perfect thickness to get that crispy meaty flavor. Come early to put your name on the waitlist and prepare to wait. You'll be glad you did!

My personal…read morefavorite was the kalguksu, but my dinner partner preferred the jjolmyeon if you're looking for something a little spicy. The noodles were perfectly cooked with a slight chew. Both kimchis were delicious, I enjoyed the water kimchi more. Service was super friendly and quick. Plenty of parking and definitely can accommodate large parties (8+). Inside was clean! Can wait to come again to try other menu items!

Terrible service…read more We had a big group and every table that came after us were given side dishes and their order sheet were taken. We had to walk up to the front to drop off our order sheet. No one came by to drop off side dishes but the other tables were given refills of their kimchi. Unbelievable. When they finally came by to give us kimchi. The older gentleman didn't say a word of apology or anything and just rudely dropped them on our table. T

This is hands down my favorite Korean restaurant. The quality of the food and the portion sizes are…read moreboth 10/10. The kimchi, kkakdugi (radish kimchi), and gat kimchi are absolutely delicious. I heard that the owner makes everything in-house, and you can really tell how much care and skill go into the food. The staff are also incredibly kind and welcoming every time I visit. Galbitang (Beef Short Rib Soup) - This is honestly the best galbitang I've had in both OC and LA. The broth is rich and flavorful, and the beef is always fresh and tender. Whenever I'm craving galbitang in the OC/LA area, this is the only place I go. Yukgaejang (Spicy Beef Soup) - The amount of ingredients they give you is amazing. I've had it both dining in and as takeout, and it's consistently delicious every single time. It's perfectly seasoned, and has just the right level of spice. As much as I love the galbitang, I think I actually enjoy the yukgaejang even more. Pork Cutlet (Donkatsu) - This place is known for its galbitang and seolleongtang, so I wasn't expecting much from the donkatsu... but why is it this good? The cabbage salad dressing that comes on the side is seriously addictive. The portion size is huge, there's no way I could finish it by myself. It has the crispy texture of Japanese katsu, while still having a great pork flavor of its own. I honestly think this could be considered one of their signature dishes. If you're looking for authentic Korean comfort food with generous portions and warm service, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I'll definitely keep coming back!

Delicious and authentic! The banchan was so fresh and more on the spicy side, which I absolutely…read moreloved because it was so flavorful. It honestly tastes just like a home-cooked meal. ​I got the bibimbap and the galbi-tang...both were excellent. Highly recommend!

Located in a newer shopping center, this restaurant is already drawing quite the crowd. As of now,…read moreparking is free, which is a huge plus. They offer valet parking at the entrance, along with additional parking around the corner. Since this place gets very busy, I'd recommend arriving early to avoid a long wait. This is a great spot for large groups and celebrations. The menu is designed for family-style dining, so you can order several dishes to share with everyone at the table, or you can order an individual entrée if that's more your style. Despite the packed dining room, the service was quick and attentive. Our food came out surprisingly fast, and the staff kept everything running smoothly throughout our meal. The food was delicious, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. Combined with the lively atmosphere and efficient service, it's easy to see why this restaurant has become such a popular destination. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. Army stew was my favorite

Don't drink their water here...the tea water... leftover tea water gets poured into the trash can…read moreand rescooped into previously used pitchers.. basically they would pour the leftover water in the same bucket of water and rinse the pitcher in the same bucket of water and stack them up for resuse for next customer. And their hands go inside everything. They grab the rinsed pitcher, scoop the tea water and serve it. Also mind you, the tea water is inside those huge trash cans. AND when they were transferring the ice (from again those trash bins) they would lift it to pour all the ice in to the tea water bin and you can see all the dirty drippings from the outside wheels drip inside the container.. @.@ No its not a one time thing with one employee...they all knew the drill and did it like routine. Me and my friends watched the whole thing while we were just trying to enjoy some drinks at the bar. It was so disgusting, my friends wanted to pay and leave quickly but NO theres no way im paying for the drink i only had a couple sips of and couldn't finish. So i told the manager, didnt pay and left. He was not shocked ... wonder why. And now im just telling all my close friends not to go here... digusting.

They have changed locations and are located with Tokyo Eats but the food is still amazing and…read moredelicious! The bibimbap beef burrito is big and filled with lots of flavorful goodness! We ordered 24 wings and split it to try the soy garlic, K-sweet chili and Seoul spicy. Oh my! Generous size and served piping hot. Crunchy outside with tender chicken inside. Each one was very tasty and the spicy one hits you after a bit. So good! The K-pop street tacos were also very good and served with a spicy sauce. So glad they're still around. It's been a while since we came and we're happy and satisfied. Plenty of seating and the service is good. Attended to in good time and didn't have to wait long to get our food. Love the Japanese Cherry blossom decor mixed with K-Pop flare.

We came expecting an all-you-can-eat chicken wing experience, but they no longer have that in the…read morerestaurant. So expect the regular menu. There is a small lot out front for parking, and I suspect you can park on the street when the lot fills up. We happened to come by during the Korea vs. Mexico game, and understandably, the place gets packed, with a line forming outside. We somehow beat the rush by about 30 minutes and were seated at a table as soon as we entered. We also realized then that they didn't have the all-you-can-eat option, so we ended up ordering the chicken wings, their version of loaded fries, and steamed rice. We also placed the order via the QR code. We had our drinks delivered to our table shortly afterward. The food, however, was taking a long time to get to our table. It may have been a combination of the FIFA World Cup and a staff shortage, but when we were there, there was only 1 kitchen staff member and 1 wait staff member. The lady on the wait staff did everything from serving food to accepting new customers and topping off water for all the tables. A wall separates the restaurant; there is a front room and an inside room, and both rooms had televisions broadcasting the game. The food itself was decent for the price that they charge. The chicken wings came out piping hot, crispy on the outside, and juicy inside. They have some options for different wing flavors. The fries were also delicious and well-fried. I hope the restaurant invests in more wait staff because there were times we needed something from the wait staff. Seeing how busy she was, or sometimes she's just in the front room, we haven't seen her in a while to get whatever we needed. Overall, it was a good experience. The food was good, and the atmosphere is very unique; it's definitely a nice place to get some Korean street food when you're in the area. The only things to note are that parking is limited, food will take a while to cook as it is made fresh, and there will be some waiting to be done if you need wait staff. Last thing to note: I love that they had some Korean Fusion dishes, and I wish I had a bigger stomach to try these as well during our visit, perhaps another time!

Met up with 3 other people to grab some lunch at this location. We came in during a weekday for…read morelunch and it was very busy but no wait. I love that you order off their kiosk which is conveniently located at the table already. The staff was quick to bring out the banchan. To start, we shared their leek pancake and pork blood sausage. For my lunch I went with their cold noodles since it was a cold day. The people I came with had some pork spare ribs, which came with rice and bone knee soup. And a bibimbap. The leek pancake was the best thing there. The pork blood sausage was more of rice noodles rolled up with pork blood flavored. I can't imagine it being much portion. Eveything else was bland which we all agreed to. For my cold noodles I added plenty of vinegar and mustard but it was not it. Still lacked flavor. Also it only had half a boiled egg and two verythin slices of beef. The pork was over cooked, dry, and lacked flavor. The bibimbap was also bland even with their red sauce. We we were all disappointed. The pricing is affordable. The staff was nice and quick. They made sure to check up on us. Parking here is a tough even though it was a weekday. Their lot was full and you can park next door but by the dental office but that was also full. We waited a little and eventually found parking. The restaurant is very casual, clean and spacious. This was just really meh to me.

Attentive service came in waves but all interactions were friendly. What we noticed rhe most: ventilation! It was much better than other KBBQ, as we didnt leave smelling like the food. Be warned: the parking lot is very small so plan to sit and/or circle until a coveted spot opens up. We heard a Mr.BBQ Jr just opened in Tustin, and we hope to eat there too.

Been coming here for a few years now, and it probably is my favorite AYCE Korean BBQ place for…read moreseveral reasons, most being related to the quality of the food and the exceptional service. Firstly, parking here is tough. In all my years coming here, I think there was only one time where I was able to find parking in the actual parking lot. If the lot is full, I normally park in the neighborhood next to the restaurant or at the CVS (about a 3-min walk). The quality of meat here is very good. You have a good amount of options to pick from. Personally, I am a huge fan of beef belly, so I tend to order that every round. One of their items is called "Mr. BBQ" and it is very good as well, and has a great marinade. The banchan is also very good, and they give a lot of different types, more than I've seen at more KBBQ and Korean restaurants. One thing they don't have on the AYCE menu that some other places have is appetizers, but that is okay. What sets Mr. BBQ apart from other places is the service. Every time I have gone the service staff is always so attentive. They are quick to refill any banchan, quick to take more meat orders (and bring them out quickly), and very quick at replace the grill when it gets dirty. I have never had a bad experience with service here. Overall, this is one of if not my favorite KBBQ place, and I get excited at any chance I get to come here.
