    I had a good experience at 2N1 Korean BBQ in Temecula. The quality of the meat was solid, and everything we ordered tasted fresh and flavorful. The staff was friendly and checked on us regularly without being overbearing. There is also a robot server! The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that service and food timing slowed down a bit once the restaurant got busy, and we had to wait longer than expected for a few refill orders. It wasn't a dealbreaker, but it took away from the overall experience. Overall, it's a great spot if you're craving Korean BBQ. I'd definitely come back and would recommend it. Great ambiance--but you'll leave smelling like BBQ lol

    All the food was good. Everything decently proportioned. Nothing to jump out of your seat for, but it was good. Just good. Not bad. Not mid. Just good. I'd definitely recommend it, but for $35, it could've been better. I go to another place for $23 per person, a lot of variety with sides and such and it makes this place hard to favor. Service was decent and nice, but towards the end, our service got very slow. Took a while to get our 2nd order of sides and someone to pick up the bill. Ambiance wasn't too bad, not my favorite but not the worst. I'd come back again if i'm too far from my usual spot (Yes i'm gate keeping cuz i don't need anymore ppl crowding this place).

    The brisket, beef steak, and beef chop steak were phenomenal and definitely the stars of the meal. Those cuts were really well done. The pickled radish was amazing, but the thin radish wrap didn't have that tangy pickled taste at all, which was a little disappointing. The kimchi was average -- I've had much more delicious versions elsewhere. The iced green tea also tasted very watered down -- the color in my cup was practically clear with only the slightest tint of green if you looked carefully, which says a lot. Overall, a pretty average experience with some standout meats and great banchan variety, but the service and a few details could definitely be improved.

    They have 3 different prices. We went for the most basic AYCE meal...the regular menu. It's about $35 per person. I'm sorry this place is just mediocre because the selection of meat in the regular menu is ok not much options. The brisket is brought out frozen. The bulgogi beef and chicken were pretty good. My complaint is the grill keeps sliding out and the table is too small to fit any plates on. Service was pretty good. I guess I have it good at Sonu Korean bbq in Oceanside because for the same price I get way more options like salmon and shrimp. Their side dishes are bigger and better.

    I see this place recommended a lot and this week I was temecula for work and knew I had to stop in. Now it's become an absolute must visit every time i'm in the area - so good, and reasonably priced! (cheap lunch specials at both locations) Food (5/5) - took some coworkers here for a work lunch and even just the lowest tier menu was great in price and taste. Great sides like corn cheese and fried chicken, and great quality meats like the beef belly and flavorful bulgogi had us eating until we gained a few extra pounds. need to come back for the premium menus. service (5/5) - i guess they usually have a tablet system to order, but it wasn't working today so they had servers taking orders. Didn't make a difference as our server was great and on top of new orders for us. ambiance (5/5) well ventilated, spacious and comfortable seating, music not too loud, plenty of parking in a big plaza, and a super sleek and modern interior design made for a very enjoyable dining experience here.

    It gets busy after 12pm and the service was fast and efficient. Had our birthday celebration here and the meat and ambience is amazing. Delicious!

    I went to 2N1 KBBQ in Temecula with my friends. It wasn't busy, so we were able to get seated right away while we waited for the rest of our party to arrive. We wanted to get started on ordering and cooking so they could eat as soon as they got there. Unfortunately, our grill ran into some issues and wasn't able to keep a fire going. The server called for manager assistance to fix it. It did take a little time, but since we were still waiting on our group, it wasn't a huge deal. Once it was resolved, everything moved smoothly. We ordered brisket and a few other items, and the meats were pretty standard but still enjoyable. Nothing super standout, but solid for a KBBQ spot. The soju bombs were reasonably priced, and we ended up getting three bottles of soju, which made the experience more fun for the group. Overall, the restaurant felt like your typical KBBQ spot--casual, lively, and easy to enjoy with friends. What really stood out to me was the pricing. Compared to what I'm used to in the Bay Area, everything here felt significantly more affordable for the same kind of experience. Service was attentive throughout, especially with checking in after the grill issue, which I appreciated. Because of the value and decent quality, I would come back again, especially if I'm in the area and craving KBBQ without Bay Area prices.

    Quick wait time and comfortable seating. I love my corner table all the way to the back! Background music keeps the ambiance alive for a casual ambiance and atmosphere. The side orders were unlimited and came fast. The server was prompt. Meat was served fast as well. It was bland so you have to season - you may add a pinch of salt, oil , or the hot sauce to flavor. Overall a good experience. For $34 per person, it's reasonable for the regular eat all you can with unlimited sides! The exhaust fans work amazing, we didn't get teary eyed while eating:) Stepped out happy! Check them out when in Temecula!

    This is my first Korean bbq experience and it was great. I never cared to try it because I really did not care to cook my own food. We were a party of 3 and came here on a Sunday afternoon. It's not too far from the AMC theatres. There's a lot of parking and the restaurant is towards the back of the mall. It was pretty busy so we signed up on the wait list and waited maybe less than 10 mins. Our server was Jocelyn. She was very attentive, thorough, helpful and answered all my questions. This being my first time, I had a ton of questions. We all did the $34 pp lunch with unlimited sides. We were able to order 4 meats at the most every time. All of them were good. Bulgogi, beef/pork belly, Hawaiian beef, beef brisket. There's a robot that goes around with meats too but I did not see how that worked. It never stopped over to us, which was ok because I would not have known what to do. Jocelyn made sure we were always ok. She was kind and had great recommendations. She was always on top of switching out grills. All of these things helped me get through my rookie experience. The food was amazing, portions were huge, and pricing was great. I couldn't have asked for a better place for my first time. Cooking the food was well worth it! I will definitely be doing it again!

    First off the service was completely TERRIBLE!!!!!! We literally waited 15 minutes from being seated down and didn't even get greeted or anything and we had to flag down someone and ask can we order?! The next thing that we did not like was literally getting three different orders that we didn't even order and they kept messing up and bringing us different dishes that we weren't even ordering, which is seriously ridiculous!! oh and I forgot that I ordered brisket sauce and the lady didn't even come back and give me the brisket sauce and we ordered another plate of brisket and it didn't even come!!!! I feel like the service was so disorganized and everyone was just running off with their heads cut off and all of the workers here they really didn't have great customer service!!! If I would, I would be able to just rate it a .5 not even a one star it doesn't even deserve that We will never come back here again. It is not worth our time and definitely don't come back here.!!!!!!! THE WORST SERVICE!!!!!! DO NOT WASTE UR TIME HERE! And of course, the bathroom is absolutely disgusting! Like no one literally cleans it or something. It's absolutely ridiculous.

    Rice paper sitting out
    Jade Y.

    We used to love this place but now we're disgusted! We came here and found mold on the rice paper. You can see in the picture that it's just sitting out at room temperature. After we told the manager about the mold, all he said was "sorry" and they still left this out and didn't offer us a discount or anything.

    Pheew! We were stuffed after three rounds of beef, pork, soju, and banchons. The service is great! They are very friendly and not reserved at all. We were a party of four but we're able to get a table easily as we arrived before 6pm. It got packed afterwards though. They have three meat options available standard, premium A, or B. Tip: it gets insanely smoky, because there are hoods but they are useless. Wear clothes that you don't plan on wearing the rest of the evening. Anyway, the tables are spacious and spread out apart from other tables. Again, the service was great and food was delicious. Enjoy!

    I've been to this place quite a few times since they've opened. I was here for their soft opening (2024 I think,) and let me say they've come a long way since opening! Their quality of meat has gone up and they've dialed in the flavors. Also, I noticed quite a bit more options in the sides menu which was a nice surprise. Everything is stupid expensive and this is no different but if you come hungry and pace yourself you can get your bang for your buck! They give you 2 hours total from the time you sit. We never make it more than an hour on a good day lol Service was ehhhh but the food came out quickly and they were super helpful and accommodating with bringing out a birthday cake we brought ourselves

    Do we need reservations or can we just walk in?

    You can walk in. They also take reservations for a party of 6 or more online.

    Is there fish cake as a side here?

    Yes :)

    Do they use peanut oil for any of their foods?

    The meat is given raw so it should be peanut free. There is only a few side dishes that are fried so it should be few worries there.

    Of course

    What kind of drinks do they serve?

    Just soda for now. They are not licensed for alcohol yet. Possibly till October.

    Do they have rice paper and Korean potato salad?

I came here craving soup after being sick and ordered the pork soon tofu, while my wife ordered the bulgogi. The meat in both dishes was noticeably tough and difficult to chew compared to other Korean tofu restaurants we've visited. Because I wasn't feeling well, I couldn't fully taste the food, but my wife and daughter both immediately noticed that the bulgogi tasted sour. When we brought it to the staff's attention, they kindly offered to replace the meat, so we requested teriyaki chicken instead. Unfortunately, another serving of bulgogi was brought out instead. By that point, my wife and daughter had already finished eating and gone to the car, so I simply asked for it to be boxed up. After getting home, we decided to throw it away because we didn't feel comfortable taking a chance on meat that tasted off. The side dishes also didn't seem fresh, which matched what I had seen mentioned in other reviews. While I can't say for certain what caused the sour taste, it left us without confidence in the meal. Another thing worth mentioning is that there was no air conditioning on a very hot summer day, which made it uncomfortable to enjoy a steaming bowl of soup. Also, the dishes were served on hot plates, but nothing arrived sizzling or boiling the way you would normally expect at a Korean tofu restaurant. I genuinely want local family-owned restaurants to succeed, which is why writing this review isn't easy. Every restaurant can have an off day, and hopefully that's what happened here. Unfortunately, this visit didn't meet our expectations, and based on our experience, I'd encourage others to use their own judgment when deciding to dine here.

    Nice service and decent meat for the price!…read more The menu is straightforward with the basic meat options. Although the choices are very limited, they offer the typical meat options that people would normally get at other locations. The menu states that there's a limit on the marinated short ribs, but the worker said that we could get as much as we wanted. The ventilation could definitely be better, but it didn't bother us that much. Our favorite part was that they provided FREE ice cream at the end of our meal which was a pleasant surprise. * Beef Brisket: 9/10 - cooks the fastest and pairs nicely with the brisket sauce * Bulgogi Beef: 9/10 - nicely marinated and tender * Beef Short Ribs: 9/10 - the best choice, but we were curious as to why it didn't come with the bones * Ice Cream: 10/10 - perfect dessert after such a very meal The place is a good size and can fit a large number of booths and grills. We came when they first opened so the workers were quite attentive, but it might be different during hectic dinner times. They're located in a small lot with the gas station and other shops so parking might be tough. Considering this is one of the few KBBQ places in the area, we were happy with our experience and would definitely consider coming back!

We sat down straight after. Our server, Paul is even MORE amazing. We love him so much. Not only was he checking up on us and seeing if we needed more refills/orders. We weren't ever waiting more than 5 minutes for an order, it was brought out almost immediately when requested. Talking about Paul, we've had such a great time being under his care. He's the most down to Earth person you could ever meet. Food, is great! Meat selection is pretty good. We used to live in Orange County and it's a great new pick! It doesn't feel as greasy or fatty (in my opinion lol!) We mainly got the brisket and short rib. They also have great sides, even tortillas! Ambiance is pretty nice! They have a GREAT selection of alcohol. It's beautiful. My husband couldn't stop eyeing the Macallan 30. BEST PART - They give you a fan during your visit. I've been in too many kbbq spots where it's so stuffy and unbearable. But here, they give you a powerful fan and we were even seated near the entrance so it's more breathable.
