    Came here for dinner on a Saturday night at around 6pm. Put ourselves on the yelp waitlist ahead of time and was seated immediately when we arrived. We got the chef cut combo with a half portion of small intestines. It was a LOT of food. The combo serves 2-3 people comfortably as it also comes with steamed egg and corn cheese on the side. I also love that they have a great selection of banchan. The servers here are super friendly and attentive, and they do all the cooking for you so your meat comes out prefect! My favorite cuts were the ribeye cap, the galbi and the garlic galbi as they were super tender cuts with good flavor. They also have a Chang combo for those who like intestines. I love that they changed the grill after cooking all the meats and used a different grill for the small intestines, allowing it to get super crispy. Dont forget to get hot sauce for the intestines too. We had enough food leftover for another meal. Overall it's definitely on the pricier side but the meat quality is very good and service excellent. Will return again for another kbbq treat!

    Known for their intestines combos so that's of course what we got. They cook it for you which is nice. Intestines can be an acquired taste because of the texture, but we are a fan, but can't have it all the time. Staff was friendly and on a weekday evening, we were able to get a reservation right away. The quality was pretty good, but there was one cut we weren't the biggest fan of. The price is a little high I think too. Banchan was solid, but nothing to stand out. I think next time, we will try other meat varieties to diversify our meal. I also recommend going with more than one other person to try multiple things.

    First time dining at Yangmani and as I pulled in, I was shocked to see Chubby Cattle at the end of the plaza. It's been probably close to 10 years since I've last been here and the plaza is still busy as I remembered it being. Glad my friend made reservations as this it filled up pretty quickly. Let my friends decide on what to order as they've dined here in the past. We ended up with the chef's cut combo which was a nice sample of various cuts. Although they do cook the meat for you, honestly didn't know what cut was what. Don't get me wrong the meat was good, just wished I knew what was what. We did end up ordering another garlic galbi which was awesome as they gave us a garlic butter dipping sauce. Service was a bit slow and often had to do cooking ourselves to prevent the meat from burning. This meal reminded me of an elevated version of Kang Ho Dong Baekjong but with a way better variety of bonchon.

    This is a modern BBQ grill. Loved the way the meat cooked and tasted

    The mi Ute you walk in to the place, the music is pleasant and upbeat. The decoration is modern but not overwhelmed The staff was super friendly They were on top of the meat being grilled, they kept coming around to flip it and cook it. They suggested what meat to use the matcha salt, the sauces, etc All the sides that came with the combo were more than enough for our group of 3. We liked the taste on the meats, sides were super yummy and fresh. We got a shot size slushy at the end, it was very refreshing! We are now fans of this place: smaller place means you get great timely service, good quality and it's not overrated ! Plus you don't leave smelling like smoke.

    Chef's Cut Combo

    We are in town for BTS concerts and want to experience the best Korean BBQ LA has to offer. We found Yangmani on Yelp and it didn't disappoint. We got the Chef's Cut Combo for our table of 5. It was plenty of food and the quality was excellent! Definitely, will be returning if we are in the area again in the future.

    Fully intended to eat somewhere else for Mother's Day but the wait was too long so we came across this place. There was no wait but plenty of people dining. Our party of 5 was seated almost right away. If you've ever been to Baekjeong, it's pretty similar. They have sets you can choose from and the quality of the meats are really premium. Someone comes and grills all of your meat for you as well. I really liked the banchan selection too. I would consider it a little on the pricier side but the quality is worth it. I'm glad we came here and I will definitely be back!

    Really enjoyed our meal at Yangmani! The beef was fresh, tender, and very tasty. The service was excellent--our server was attentive, and I really appreciated having someone help grill the meat for us. The ambiance was lively and comfortable, making it a great place to enjoy Korean BBQ with friends and family. Overall, a very enjoyable dining experience!

    If you're a high-quality meat lover, you need to check out Yangmani. Not all-you-can-eat--this is premium Korean BBQ. As soon as you walk in, you'll see a fridge showcasing their dry-aged meats. Started with some thoughtful banchan (even includes quail egg ), and we added steamed egg. We also loved the sauces--especially the matcha salt, We had the 14-day dry-aged ribeye and the wagyu boneless short rib. Both were top-tier quality. Everything is grilled for you--perfectly done. Also loved their signature mushrooms If you're into marinated meat, definitely go for the boneless short rib. Last but not least, we always finish with bibimbap and tofu soup for the complete Korean BBQ experience. IG: socalhkfoodies

    Steamed egg

    Heard about Yangmani through a YouTuber and was feeling splurge-y, so found ourselves here on a Friday evening at about 5:30 pm. Located in the Diamond Plaza, which has a lot of other shops and restaurants, it can be a while to find a parking spot but that's the good thing about eating dinner early. Upon stepping into the restaurant, there was a dry aging fridge on the right showing the various aged stages of their ribeye. Legit! Only two tables or so were occupied at this time. We were to asked to wait while they set up our table. When we were then seated, we found a number of sauces and a variety of banchans laid out for us, ready to enjoy. So remember we felt splurge-ey? And yes, yes we did. We ordered the Chef's Cut Combo ($148), which came with 5 different cuts of beef, including the dry aged ribeye and the mega galbi. The combo also I bodied corn cheese and steamed eye - yum! Service is on point and everything is cooked at the table for you. All you have to do is eat and enjoy. The banchan that was particularly unexpected and delicious was the cilantro salad (sorry cilantro haters!). Overall, absolutely delicious and premium quality. The quality comes with the price tag - after tax and tip, the meal was almost $200 for two people. Pricey but something worth splurging for every now and then. Life is short, enjoy and eat up!

    Chang Combo
    Benson T.

    This place is a certified banger. I got the Chang Combo, which serves organ meats (intestine, stomach), and it blew my expectations out of the water. If a person doesn't eat organ meat and I had to select a spot to have them try it, it'd be here. On top of that, there's a bonkers of an amount of ban chan sides. Finish the meal off with scorched rice soup. What a way to finish. Servers will cook and cut for you so you only have to worry about eating. This place replaced the skewer spot I liked, but I'll welcome this replacement with open arms. Doesn't look too different from the prior skewer set up. Same slightly warm lighting and wood accents on grey brick. Cool vibes. Can't wait to come back.

    Banchan (sides)
    Sharlene D.

    I came here after hearing pretty good reviews and Recs from friends. When we walked in the area was clean and the host was friendly. Parking was easy to find on a weekday night. We ended up getting the variety combo for 2 of us. The sides were okay but the one that stood out the most was probably the Mac salad. Everything else wasn't super memorable. The combo also came with steamed egg and cheese corn. The cheese corn wasn't that sweet and lacked flavor. The lack of flavor was continuous with the sauces for the meats too. The first meat we tried was the brisket and honestly I felt like it just tasted like any meat you would get at an AYCE restaurant. The standout of the combo was probably the bulgogi since it was marinated and had some sort of flavor. I think the meats would all be better if the dipping sauce wasn't so bland. It was nice that the server cooked for us, so service was pretty good. I was just not wowed by the meats considering it was $110 for both of us for that combo. With that amount I feel like ayce waygu would've been more worth it.

    corn cheese
    Emily H.

    Recently, I've been on a mission to find the top Korean BBQ spots in Los Angeles, and I kept seeing Yangmani all over TikTok being hyped as one of the best. So I decided to give it a try. To avoid traffic, I waited until things died down and got there around 9 PM on a Saturday. In hindsight, that might've been a mistake. They close at 11, so I figured it would be fine.. but it didn't turn out that way. The staff were friendly and seated us right away, but it definitely felt like they were rushing to close. I ordered the chef's cut combo, which comes with corn cheese, steamed egg, got the spicy cold noodles, soft tofu soup, lettuce wraps, and rice. Right off the bat, I was disappointed to hear they were out of rice paper, which I personally love wrapping meat with. It also felt like service started slipping very quickly.. our server forgot our rice and lettuce wraps. By the time I asked again, the kitchen had already closed. She did manage to get us one bowl of rice, but it still wasn't ideal. As for the food, the meat itself was decent, but it honestly felt like we got whatever was left in the kitchen. The quality and portions weren't what I expected, especially given the hype. The steamed egg was another letdown.. omg it was dry, whereas I'm used to it being soft and fluffy. The banchan selection was pretty mid as well. On top of that, we felt rushed the entire time. Staff were already cleaning nearby tables, and the smell of cleaning spray while eating was pretty unpleasant. Overall, this place felt overhyped to me. Nothing really stood out, and I don't see myself coming back. My boyfriend even said he felt like it wasn't worth the money, which was disappointing. Maybe the experience would've been better if we came earlier.. but honestly, I'm not convinced it would make a huge difference.

    Beef Combo
    Ken C.

    We had the beef combination and the poor combination. They have a nice assortment of dry aged meats. Very nice interesting flavor. I almost felt like it was a little cheesy from the aging, which was a flavor I never had before. The flavors of the mushroom were also very fresh and meaty. They burn their logo onto a mushroom and they grill in front of you.

    Do they take reservations?

    Don't bother to try it out. The young host was rude. You either wait for an hour before seated or don't eat here!!!! That was the reaction!

You get the sweetness from the meat, umami from the soup and everything just goes really well together. I always refill the side dishes at least twice whenever I come here. They taste fresh and doesn't taste overly salty or too sweet like some places. Another thing I like is their combo actually comes with a regular size tofu soup. Most other tofu soup places only give you a much smaller bowl with the combo, so you definitely get more here. The ajummas are always super fast and really nice.

I can truly say with my heart that SoCal KBBQ really got the Bay Area beat. The waitlist showed 45m originally but we got in within 25ish. The meat quality was solid. I got Set B so I could try the LA galbi, which was made perfectly. I also liked the rib fingers. They were juicy and had good flavor. I'm simple though, so most of the time I just stuck with brisket. Overall, I'd probably give the food itself a 4/5. Nothing was bad by any means, it's solid and cant do wrong compared to other spots in the area. As for the service, our waitress, I think her name was Christine or Kristine? She was so attentive, friendly, professional, and just completely on top of everything. I was having a really crappy day after work and her enthusiasm really cheered me up. It's really the small attention to detail things that stood out. For example, I love rice paper and by the 2nd time I reordered and finished it, she was like, "more rice paper?" with a lil finger gun action. It's little things like this that make a difference and keep customers returning, so I hope the other staff members also have the same enthusiasm next time I'm back. I was constantly being checked on, my grill kept getting replaced, waters refilled, etc. You can tell this definitely isn't her first time working KBBQ. She just knew what she was doing and was always one step ahead. The service she provided was honestly better than what I've received at high end places like COTE in NYC or San Ho Won in SF, where I'm paying way more and you'd expect that level of service. They also have a couple things you don't see at every Korean BBQ place, like Korean chimichurri, mala seasoning, and cuts like flat iron (my fave) and pichana. I really liked the house samjang too. It had a lot of depth and worked well with the meat. Overall, I'd give the food a 4/5, but my waitress's service is what bumped the entire experience up to a 5/5 for me. I would definitely come back if I wanted AYCE, the food was solid. I really wish we had this level of service up in the Bay!! I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area. I can't wait to have the rib fingers with that samjang and chimichurri again!

Despite how busy she clearly was, our grills got changed so often, she frequently refilled our drinks and banchan, and often checked in on us if we needed anything else. The service is definitely one of the best in an AYCE KBBQ spot. The banchan were surprisingly really delicious as well! I think it means a lot when a place offers good quality side dishes which equates to every aspect of your meal will be great. It's an often overlooked aspect. The hot food and the meat selections were also great! The pricing and quality really makes sense. The food comes out super quick and fresh, so you are not waiting to make another round as your timer runs down. Also, keep that high-pressure sink in the women's restroom! I loved how strong it was, and it REALLY cleaned my hands!
