Grilling brisket
Van N.

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.

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.

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

Tucked into the shopping center in Temecula, this Korean BBQ is well and through with a nice open layout, front entrance access and plenty of parking in nearby parking lots among the rest of the shopping stores here. It was our first time trying out the KBBQ here and the selection for the regular on a weekend was pretty good. There are plenty of tables and booths alike. I didn't completely count but most tables can seat up to 4 chairs. All of the grills are at each table in the middle and you can't just move tables together if you have a big party. We came in with a party to three so seating was just less than 5 minutes while we saw a party of 8 was waiting before we got there and still saw them waiting after we got half way through our food. The choice selections are your typical but they have a premium menu that is about $59 while the lunch and regular menu is $29 and $33. Additionally, drinks and sodas are about 2.99 and upwards. The staple selections we tried were the briskets, bulgogi, pork belly and steak. Sides are selected via their menu which they actually have quite a lot. You can order those side dishes as much as you can. So many variety of selections from 3 versions of the kimchi to rice paper and other veggies. Only sad worst they didn't have was the potato salad. The grill was a bit tricker, at least in our table as it kept moving and tilting around. Even after they replaced the grilled, it was still loving; not a show stopper for sure. I've eaten at so many Korean BBQ places from the United States to Australia and to the UK and they are ALL GREAT PLACES to dine at.

Had such a great time here. Everything we tried was on point, especially the Wagyu, which was so tender and flavorful, and the bulgogi was perfectly marinated with that sweet/savory balance you want. The sides kept coming and everything was fresh and delicious. Service was also top notch. We didn't wait long to be seated because we joined the online waitlist. Staff were super friendly, attentive, and happy to help with the grill without hovering. Overall just a really cool KBBQ experience that hits on food, vibes, good music and service. Definitely coming back.

Service, wasn't the best this last trip. Didn't get water til our 3rd meat order and still had to ask again as well for sides unfortunately. Then after our 4th meet order they asked if we're ready to close out. This isn't the first time I've had this experience. Best Korean bbq in the area so I'll be back but service isn't always the best.

Amazing!

This is the best Korean BBQ I've ever been to. We've been coming here for almost two years, and every time the food is amazing and the staff is incredibly nice. The restaurant is always clean, too. Highly recommend this place if you love Korean BBQ.

Lee W.

Wow! Our server Caitlin was absolutely amazing! I ordered Brisket, spicy Ramen with tofu, cucumbers, rice, radish in brisket sauce, macaroni salad, kimchi, jalapeños, salad, pickled radish, corn cheese, bibimbap, and raspberry iced tea and dog gone it, she remembered my order the very next time! All I have to do is sit down and my food and drink comes over! No other server can do this! Her smile and personality is second to none! Whenever I go there, I look for her! She is one of a kind! Whenever you want Korean BBQ, go to 2N1 and ask to sit in Caitlin's section, you will have a phenomenal experience!

Spicy pork belly

Very good food and selection, service is good if you get the right person. extremely busy in the afternoons.

Bibimbap side is just rice and salad

I have no clue how I missed this establishment for the three years it's been around, but I finally got to visit for lunch today. The place is pretty big and fancy inside, you definitely can't tell how large it is from the outside. They are also currently doing construction/remodeling which was a little loud and odd during business hours. The hostess was really sweet about making sure we had a big booth away from other patrons as we came in with my friend's son with special needs. The service was outstanding, $24.99 lunch special for all you can eat. There is a decently large selection of meats (beef, pork, chicken) and also unlimited sides which they also had so many to choose from. I only deducted a star because it was my first visit and we weren't aware about some of the dishes (sides) brought out uncooked (Tteok-bokki and sweet potatoes for example, I was expecting gamja jorim instead of raw sliced potatoes I had to throw on the grill) and each time I had to stop someone and ask because the servers just dumped them on the table without a word. Every employee we flagged down to ask questions were all super helpful and polite about it. The bibimbap side was a bowl of rice and salad with pickled veggies and gochujang which I was confused until I realized you had to build your own with the meats and that it was not an actual traditional bibimbap. I enjoyed mostly everything, a couple of the sides we didn't care for, but other than that ... I would highly recommend and would definitely return. Bring your appetites because the meat servings are huge! We went through almost 8 orders of meat and at least a dozen sides in an hour. Everything was delivered quickly and our waiter checked in on us often, loved it here!

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

I ordered the 2-meat combo platter with brisket and pork ribs, plus mac and cheese and beans. Unfortunately, the food was pretty underwhelming for the price. The brisket arrived dry and slightly oxidized-looking, with only two slices included. The ribs were overdone and mostly from the cartilage-heavy end of the rack. Flavor overall was decent, but nowhere near memorable. The mac and cheese was bland, the beans were okay, and even the pickles had an odd chemical taste to them. The service was genuinely great, which was the highlight of the experience, but at around $48 for the combo plate, the food quality just didn't justify the cost. For comparison, Heritage BBQ in San Juan Capistrano is in an entirely different league when it comes to quality and execution. This place felt much more geared toward tourists than serious BBQ fans.

For our sides we had the Mac n Cheese and mashed potatoes. The Mac n Cheese tasted like boxed and not fresh so not our favorite. The biscuits were also luke warm and a bit hard. Not sure if their food sits for a while before it's served or not properly warmed as everything was served luke warm.

The service was okay because the gentleman working seemed nice but he appeared to be the only waiter in the whole place and was definitely overwhelmed. The place was wide open and pretty much all outdoors so it's cool for a bar but not great for a dinner date. All of this gave me the impression Steinerhaus would be better suited as a bar serving bar food. If those are your expectations you'll probably be okay.
