From the sweetness of the ribs to the crunchy crackling of the pork belly you will not be disappointed. The hearty cornbread can easily be a meal of its own. Looking forward to many more returns here!

After trying the neighboring new bbq spot I won't name.. this places brisket is so much better. I love it here, juicy and great flavor. Some fatty bits but that's where the flavor comes from. and this short rib was bomb! The edges were a bit dry but I'm coming at closing time so I get it. FYI short rib is by weight $40/lb so it was about $50 for it. The sides I got were their macaroni and cheese 10/10 tastes home made! Onion rings were ok. Coleslaw is alright. Good for fiber! lol. I do like their beans and the blueberry bread. I love their nachos but they ran out of nacho cheese. Sad! I gota come back!

Today they were also out of nacho cheese but I'm not sure what that goes on? There's a dry erase board when you come in that tells you what's sold out. It's fun to chat with the other guests about what they came for and what they settled for. We always get it To Go now although they do have tables available.

Everything was flavorful, satisfying, and tasted like authentic, quality BBQ. Also a place that is dedicated to giving back to their community and looking out for the small/local business owners. Definitely a 5-star meal and a place I'd happily come back to!

The open at 9 a.m. so, you know they are cooking everything VERY early in the morning. FRESH DAILY. My favorite here is the 2-3 item combo meals. With my favorite item being the Turnip Cake with Egg. They also have various vegetables, green beans, Chinese broccoli, Bok Choi, etc. on a daily basis but rotate the type of greens, depending on the day. The 2 item combo "means" you get to choose TWO MEAT varieties. The combo includes white or fried rice or noodles and a scoop of one of the green vegetables. THE PORTION SIZES are substantial and you can walk out with a 2 item combo for $12 and a 3 item for only $1 more, $13. They have additional DELICIOUS "side" dishes which I'm not exactly how you can incorporate them into your combo meals, but you definitely can order them separate. Today, I got half and half Turnip cake and Chow Fun, asked for green beans and Crispy Pork Belly and he just charged me accordingly, $16.... which is two meals for me. They also have Chinese style sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf which is bigger than your average... for only $6. Delicious. There is one male employee who speaks near-perfect English, but most do not, so just point to what you'd like. Be adventurous! I don't think you'll be disappointed with anything here. Everything is seasoned well and always very tasty. Where can you get (more than one meal) for $12? ...other places would EASILY charge you $20 for this. ************* CASH ONLY **************

Anyways, I've been coming to this place for many years and I do believe they do a great job when it comes to the food. However on my last visit, they gave me the wrong order. I ordered pork belly but received rib belly from another customer. The middle aged man and grumpy was the one that MADE the mistake. I didn't realized I have gotten the wrong order until driving home. I call them saying I got the wrong order and if I can get a refund or dispute because I am not going to pay for something I did not want. Upon calling, they asked if I can drive back and return it but I'm already an hour away on the freeway. They took down my name and number and said they'll redeem the same order in my next visit. Here I am visiting today, and I told them the situation and the same worker talked to me. He started lecturing me that I should've returned the food. "Food is food. If you don't like don't eat"... He continued to talk loudly and making a statement in front of this whole team and all of them looking like I was in the wrong. Excuse you? Did I ask for a box of bones? Weren't YOU the one that made the mistake? How RUDE and DISRESPECTFUL you are to the people helping your business. Please grow up and deal with situations more professionally. Hold yourself accountable for mistakes you made. Your customers are what keeps you in business Uncle. With that being said... I will never come back to this place ever again.

We came at a linner time between the lunch and dinner rush. We were quickly seated. iPad ordering system is familiar with other establishments we have been to. However, this is the first time we I saw a full loco screen count down before you can choose the items. Other places just don't let you submit the order before due time. I found the Wagyu beef belly to be alright. Lots more fat than what I imaged it would be. The kalbi was good. One thing I noticed is all the sauced meat was dressed with the same sauce. This is something I wasn't used to since when we go to other kbbq places, different meats are seasoned differently. The sauce made everything taste like bulgogi in the end and we didn't like it as much. I have to say the shrimp quality is amazing. Super fresh and very plump. Both regular and Cajun tasted yummy. The scallops were small and I didn't like the seasoning on it. It didn't taste as fresh. The sides of corn cheese, egg pudding and beef soup/stew was very good. The cold noodle was a pass. The female servers would just place something down and leave at other tables. No walking around to make sure the customers were ok and didn't need anything. I had to flag for help often. The one male server that was there was much more helpful. I really appreciated this guy. Overall, it was decent but I probably wouldn't come back. We have way too many AYCE kbbqs to choose from at our regular stomping grounds.

All the meats are ordered on a tablet at your table so it's very easy and relaxing to get what you want, when you want. There's also a call button at the table if you want to speak to a server. I mostly really only wanted brisket so it was the perfect place for lunch; totally feasible and very satisfying! Super clean restaurant and big grills. Service was immaculate; Scott was very attentive and super mindful of me which I really appreciated. The rest of the staff are amazing as well.

Ordered Combo C- with pork & Kim chee stew as our stew choice. Banchan of: Kimchee (very good, not too spicey, garlicky full of umami), bread & butter type pickle slices, cabbage & red pickled beet combo, mustard green(?), and pickled white radish/daikon. Interesting unexpected banchan. Staff sets up and cooks/cuts the meat for you. Much like Mo Rak Do up the street does. Combo C has a variety of pork pieces. Excited to try pork jowl for the first time. Ample portions. All fresh with the added bonus of aging sticker info for the pork belly. All the meats were VERY good. The belly had a nice distribution of fat to meat ratio. The jowl had high fat content with a slightly firmer bite to it. Great choice. We selected the pork & kimchee stew. Also very good. A side thinly sliced green onion salad also served. The dipping ingredients: course sea salt, wasabi, sweetened shoyu with garlic/green onion bits, & a samjang mixture. All very tasty. Course salt is a nice upgrade. Beautifully presented. Plenty of staff to attend to your table. Menu also has add'l meats to add for a larger group (table of 6 to our right). Honestly I was glad it was my female cousin & I. Too much competition to grab our meat portions if the 2 piglets had to share. A definite return in the near future. Yes, these aren't all you can eat prices. Because it's above AYCE quality meats. This place is a winner all around for service, food quality, adequate venting, parking isn't bad (strip mall). One thing noticed. I never did get my one bowl of rice. Gotta have meat & rice right? Well...miss piggy didn't miss it.

I went with their "Combo B", which came with three types of pork for $69. They grill the meats for you and the meat was nicely crusted with a crispy exterior and juicy interior. It's perfect. What brings the experience to another level is their pickled vegetables, kimchi, and scallion salad, which brings acidity to balance out the fatty pork. Then you also have some nice seasonings (soybean paste, wasabi, salt, and seasoned soy) to give some other flavor variations to the meat. We asked for a side of rice, which was perfectly steamed. This was a great meal that was worth the cost.
