U-Grill Korean BBQ - Happiness - Korean Near Me - Chino, California

First time trying to try this place but there was a line. They told us 20 minute wait. Open tables like sections of open tables. A lot of staff walking around and then the people who were already at their table maybe one row had food everyone else was still waiting. So we left. I don't know what was going on but maybe next time. read more

Service was better this time around, but I can't believe the price jumped up $6 in just a year. I always looked forward to getting the corn cheese here, but it changed. Cheese is no longer melted, the metal dish probably isn't hot enough to melt it. Just cold corn and cold, unmelted shredded cheese... The quality of the sides could also use some improvement. Tofu stew came with one tofu and not even hot. Better service but poorer food quality from the last time I came. read more

I really wanted to like this place. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with a warm and inviting atmosphere. It wasn't busy at all on a Sunday afternoon, and we were seated immediately. We ordered a few items and started cooking. The food was okay, but I've definitely had better Korean BBQ elsewhere. The meat wasn't particularly flavorful, though it was decent enough to eat. Unfortunately, the service was the biggest disappointment. We were only asked once if we needed more water, and trying to get someone's attention was difficult throughout the meal. Even more frustrating, we were served meat that we did not order three separate times. A mistake like that happening once is understandable, and maybe even twice, but three times felt excessive. Our server may have been busy, and to his credit, he was friendly whenever he stopped by or when we were able to flag him down. Overall, the experience didn't justify the price we paid. Between the average food and poor service, I don't see myself returning. read more

I've been here ten times or more, and each time the service is fire. Both the drink menu and the prices are good. I frequently choose this kbbq, and it's undoubtedly superior to Gen. The sides here are consistently fresh and have a wonderful crunch, which is something I always enjoy. The Japchae here is amazing and the sesame oil on them is perfect. I recommend getting the corn cheese to dip your meats in. The steamed egg and the soft tofu stew is great too. They don't cut corners when it comes to the meats, and they are delicious. I will continue to come to this place. read more

The Baseline: For Korean BBQ restaurant the grill meats must be quality, the table set up must be functional, and the accompanying sides must work with the meat. Food: This is an all you can eat Korean BBQ and you can order 4 meats at a time. The portions are big and the meat is of good quality. Plenary of sides and the drinks are great especially when you hit happy hour. Service: We were blessed to have Jackie as our server and she was incredible. Checked on us the perfect amount of time and explained everything on how they operate so there are no surprises (i.e. there is a wasted meat charge if you do not finish). Everyone was super helpful and friendly but Jackie made our night. Ambiance: Very clean restaurant and well kept interior. The layout of dining area is well laid out and the separation of table keeps the adjoining grill smoke from not being overwhelming. read more

If you want to find a good food place to drop by with friends Saturday later night, u-grill kbbq is always a good choice to go! The meat is mostly fresh and good, though the Calamari is a little bit overly salty, and side dish are good along with very good tofu soup Service is on point, mostly very attentive and also very friendly The menu has a and b ayce options with b covering some more options, so depend on your preferences, should find what you want Though would be good to have a vent to suck out the smoke, and they have some ala cart desert options also and normal drink and beer choices as well Overall, good place to drop by, but may be a little longer wait over busy time! read more

This definitely $$$ priced but for the price you barely get enough options. Meat appears decent. Nothing great tasting just mid level. Service is decent mid tier. The vents don't work it was always Smoky. Not enough seafood options. For this entry level price or premium you get better options and same quality at GEN. Overall: not bad but not good for the price. read more

I fk with kbbq heavy, bro. & this spot surprised me. It's unassuming. Even appears like a subpar place at first glance. But no lie, it's easily top 3 kbbq spot for me. Randomly came across this spot too. For the price, the meat is fiiiiire. I always get beef brisket & beef belly to juice it up. Been here like 10x already. The service.. there be some times I think they'd be slow af, but they haven't messed up my meal timing so far. When I need that meat, they pull up quick. If you reading & wondering if it's worth to check it out, what are you waiting for? read more

The server guy was amazing. Remembered all of our drinks and all of our meal selections without writing anything down and he had like 5 other tables. But he did forget my sesame oil. But I will give him a pass on that. The food comes in huge portions so don't feel limited when they offer you 4 choices of meats for 4 people. We barely made it to round 2. The quality is what you can expect from a AYCE at this price point but maybe a tad better than average. Overall, it was a fun experience and the booths are big. The steamed egg was burnt though for all of us. So that was the only negative. Worth a try. read more

U Grill in Chino was one of the best Korean BBQ experiences I have had so far. Their brisket sauce was truly a standout and the perfect addition to any cut of meat. I love letting the meat cook first and then marinating it in the sauce so it can really soak up the flavors. The garlic slices were also a must-have for me and paired perfectly with my radish paper and rice paper to make the ultimate little meat tacos. We were a party of seven and ended up doing three rounds of orders, four meats each round. Our favorites by far were the beef belly and the brisket, the go-to KBBQ staples that never disappoint. Everything cooked up tender and delicious. The only downside was that the Coke was pretty flat but it was not a huge deal for me. Service-wise, the staff was very friendly and attentive overall. A few items, like the sliced garlic, took a little longer to arrive which delayed my meal by a couple minutes. I am very particular about having radish paper and garlic at Korean BBQ so that was the only hiccup. The restaurant had a nice, welcoming ambiance and the wait time was very reasonable at about 20 minutes which actually worked out perfectly since one of my friends was still on the way. The bathrooms were clean as well which is always appreciated. Overall, the food was excellent and the experience was great. I would definitely come back again. read more

Love this place! Great food, fair prices! Always a vibe! I'll be back soon. Service was a 10/10!

Stopped by here before my long drive to sf. This is one of the cheaper ayce. Its 23$ for lunch. Its very dim in here and the inside was big enough. Im sure they get a lot of customers for dinner. The menu has most of what i typically eat but its not very flavorful. I was expecting more from the curry marinated stuff, but that fell short. The sides are extremely underwhelming and the corn cheese needs kewpie or mayo or just something. The service was excellent. My server was busy so the "other help" was really helpful. They did an outstanding job! I wasnt really into the quality of the food and offerings but the service was very nice. read more

Food is good, i think my favorite is pork collar, brisket and bulgogi. The bulgogi is excellent, with big portions. So beware about the size before ordering. Our server Malayna is great server! friendly and fast responsive. The menu A ( 29,99$) Menu B (38,99$) Place is big and clean. Will come back for sure read more

Wait was long. But service is terrible. The servers don't know how to make there rounds. Waited 15-20 minutes just to place a second order. Service was awkward. These servers do not smile and look so serious all the time and they give you that gen z blank stare when you try asking for something. I would place this on the F tier of Kbbq spots to go too. They have a "premium" set. When you order a round of beef tongue they give you 8 small slices. But when you order brisket from their non premium set. They give you 25-30 slices. Totally Done intentionally to get you full from their cheap cuts. To charge 40 dollars for ayce and have this type of service. You are better going to 88q or thirsty cow in Rowland. I would even place gen higher than this establishment. read more

We came here on Mother's Day and had a good experience! They were busy when we came so we had to wait to be seated but we did not have to wait long at all! They accommodated us with a stroller as well! Our waitress was so kind, helpful and attentive! She was so sweet! We decided to order the mango soju which was a mixture of mango soju and sprite. It made sense price wise for us to get that! It tasted different and not what I was used to. I didn't really like it to be honest. We decided to order where we could have meats and options from both menu A & B. We decided to go with beef bulgogi, shrimp, mussels, short ribs and flank steak. We enjoyed the meat and seafood. The short ribs had a lot of fat on it so it made it hard to eat. We also had a variety of banchan, white rice, salad and glass noodles. All of those were delicious! They have a variety of booths and tables and they can accommodate large groups. We really liked the music they played and we were jamming! They have good size parking lot as well! I did enjoy my meal here! read more

The Greater Los Angeles area has some of the most authentic Korean Barbecue spots in relations to most other cities in the United States. And while many will flock to the time-tested chain restaurants to get their fix, there are a variety of local spots that serve up food just as good. I received a recommendation to try U-Grill from a friend in the area and stopped by on a Wednesday evening around 7:30PM. Entering the restaurant, many of the tables were empty. But despite this, the staff had my party wait about 5-10 minutes to sit down. This was a grim sign at the beginning of the experience. But it seems to be that most people come into this spot later in the evening as each seat was full around 10PM. Sitting down inside, we were given waters, bonchon side dishes, and the QR code with the digital menu. After, our server let us know about the two hour time limit and the four side, four meat ordering limit before letting us eat to our devices. For a dinner at the time of this review, the price was about 30 dollars a person for the regular menu and 38-39 dollars for the premium menu. At this price tag, there are other spots that will offer more meat and side options. But of all options, U-Grill's menu was solid. The regular dinner menu had about 26 meats and 9 diverse sides which were enough for my party. Compared to other Korean Barbecue spots, U-Grill is one of those places were there is more emphasis on the meat texture and natural flavor than marinades and seasonings. And to that, their items seem to reflect this too. Of the items I had, I would recommend the Beef Brisket, Garlic Pork Belly, Spicy Pork, and Garlic Chicken for these items had light amounts of sauce/seasoning, large quantities of meat per serving, and a rich flavor profile. For the beef brisket, be sure to let it char a little as the best flavor comes out after it dries a bit. On the other hand, try not to overcook the pork belly as the moisture made this dish delicious. Next, I would eat the Beef Bulgogi, Shrimp, Baby Octopus, and Calamari Steak sparingly. While the beef was given in large volume each round, the flavor of the bulgogi was too subtle and tasted close to flavorless. The seafood options were tasty for what they were. But each round of the seafood came with four pieces of shrimp, two pieces of octopus, or a very thin piece of squid. While they tasted great, it's not worth the time to make them here when volume is the name of the game. And for last, I would skip the Curry Pork Belly and Pork Skin. While pork belly is often one of the most treasured delicacies at a Korean Barbecue spot, the curry flavor tasted very little of curry. Rather, the flavor was somewhat sour and the meat was somewhat dry which did not go well together. The pork skin had a good amount of hair on each piece which made the texture strange compared to the gelatinous skin. Placing each piece on the grill was a challenge due to the lack of oil. As a result, the skin stuck to the grill without cooking correctly. At least the sides were pretty good compared to other places and I would definitely take advantage of these. I personally enjoyed the corn cheese, jap chae, steamed egg, fish cake, and kimchi! U-Grill is all over spectrum. While some of the dishes did not make the mark, there were others that were absolutely delicious. And while some items were given in mountains, others were only given in scraps. What grounds this as a positive experience are the $30 price tag and the frequent service. Because my party always had meat on the table, clean grills swapped out, and lots of space to eat, it really made the experience instead of breaking it. These all said, U-Grill is definitely doing something right with their 600 reviews here on Yelp and I would definitely recommend giving this spot a try with a 4 star rating! read more

Had such a great experience at UGrill! The service was excellent -- Joan was our server and he took great care of us the whole night. The meat portions here are huge compared to other KBBQ spots, and the quality was amazing. The bulgogi and brisket were definitely the stars! The restaurant itself was clean and well-kept. We did have about a 25-minute wait, but honestly that's not bad at all for a Saturday night. Parking can be a little tough, but we found that parking in the lot by Denny's made things easier. Overall, great food, great service, and generous portions -- definitely worth coming back! The corn cheese and the steam egg were delicious too! Yum! read more

This was our second time dining at UGrill, and unfortunately our experience was a bit different from our last visit. While the food was still decent, the service wasn't as smooth as we remembered. Joan, our server, was pleasant , but service was a bit slow from him throughout the meal. We also waited in the lobby for about 30 minutes despite seeing several available tables, which was frustrating.

We have been to at least 35 Kbbq throughout southern Cali. Once the wife and I stepped in and felt a very young vibe and read the menu, we figured quality would be ok and service would be ok. We were definitely blown away by the service and bang for your buck that this place offers. Nick, Landon , and Johnathan , went far and beyond to provide excellent service that I did not expect . Dee the manager followed up with us when we got our check to make sure we were satisfied . Only 1 minor complaint ...... the white wine was room temperature but you can't expect red or white wines at kbbq. This place offers good wines and great prices but they need to chill the white wine. Other than that , if you're in the area of the 6o fwy and want a great affordable dining experience, this is the place read more

Usually I never leave reviews for KBBQ places because I love KBBQ, but this one honestly hurts to write. I've been here twice, and I recently went on Friday (2/13) for an early Valentine's Day dinner. The first round was amazing -- side dishes were bomb, meat was good (we usually stick to the basics), and everything felt normal at first. However, after our first grill change, things started to feel off. The second round of meat had a strange, almost chemical taste. It didn't taste like the protein we ordered -- it genuinely tasted off and unpleasant. This was with a completely new round of meat, a fresh grill, and refilled side dishes, so it wasn't leftovers from before. At first I thought maybe it was just "meat fatigue," but the aftermath makes me think otherwise. Today is Sunday (2/15) as I'm writing this, and both my partner and I have been extremely sick since Friday night -- vomiting, constantly running to the bathroom, and just overall feeling terrible. I won't go into more detail, but we've basically been fighting for our lives all weekend. I've never had an issue with KBBQ before, which is why this feels especially concerning. Specifically, during the second round, the cucumber kimchi and pickled radish we refilled tasted very chemical-like and not fresh. The meat also tasted strange at that point. I strongly recommend the restaurant double-check food handling practices, meat freshness, and how side dishes are being stored and prepared. For transparency, here's what we ordered: Meat: * Thinly sliced pork belly (x2) * Beef belly (x2) * Thick cut pork belly (x2) Other dishes: * Corn cheese * Soybean soup * Soft tofu soup Side dishes refilled: * Cucumber kimchi * Pickled radish Service was okay considering it was a busy Friday and basically Valentine's Eve. Our server was sweet, but we were forgotten a few times -- which I understand given how packed it was. I genuinely love KBBQ, and I'm sad to write this because I've enjoyed this place before. But after this experience, especially getting sick afterward, I felt like I had to share. I really hope management looks into their food safety practices. read more
