What a great little spot! The bbq was delicious and the staff is so kind attentive. This was my first time here but I'll definitely be back! There is a valet parking lot for $3 during busy times. read more

7th Korean BBQ - Beef brisket, beef belly, & bulgogi - Barbeque Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Meat was ok but I would NOT come back! We left hungry. The grill was kept on a super low flame making the meat cook slow. That's a problem when they strictly enforce the 90 minute eating window. They cut us off from eating more meat with no warning or last call. Not cool. They automatically charge 20% gratuity for parties of 4 or more which wouldn't have been a problem had we not left hungry and got poor service. Service was friendly but pretty slow even though we were the only ones in the restaurant. Constantly had to ask for more sides and for our waters to be refilled. Pretty big letdown. I recommend getting your Korean barbecue somewhere else. read more

I had a great experience at 7th Korean BBQ! We ordered the whole steak, and it was definitely the highlight of the meal. The meat was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The portion was great for sharing, especially with all the different sides that came with it. The banchan selection was excellent, and everything tasted fresh and complemented the steak perfectly. We also tried the pancakes, which were crispy on the outside, flavorful, and great for sharing. We ordered several other dishes as well, and honestly, everything that came to the table was delicious. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere made it a fun place to enjoy a big meal with friends. There was plenty of food, a lot of variety, and something for everyone at the table. If you're looking for quality Korean BBQ with great banchan and shareable dishes, I highly recommend 7th Korean BBQ. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

We got the second option for ayce.The basics of brisket and beef belly were great. Prime rib was okay and the galbi I think could've been a little more flavored. They gave a dessert drink at the end that was good. Vegetables were an additional $3.99 each person for the one plate. I don't know if all was worth the price. The grill moves a lot as well. I am interested in trying out the soups they have. They have valet for $3. read more

Bad food, super subpar and expensive too. Cold noodles with a side of galbi combo plus a can of soda came out to be $45 pre tip!! ?? after 15% tip $51 is crazy for so little. My friend and I split our check into two and at first i thought it was an error but it truly was $51 a person for this order? ?? read more

REVIEW #2100. 7th is my new "go to" AYCE KBBQ! You have a ton of AYCE KBBQ restaurants in K-Town LA, each one is unique and different in their own way. One thing a place needs to compete is good service and good food. 7th Korean is that. I was able to book a reservation (even though we didn't need to book one), and when we arrived we were greeted by a couple of pleasant wait staff. We were sat right away (they weren't busy just yet), and were able to order off their AYCE menu (lowest option). All their meats were fresh and good. Loved their banchans, their steamed egg, onion pancakes, and other dishes. The owner was even around and chatted with us for a few minutes. The vibe is good, a few televisions to watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup on, friendly service, good KBBQ, and a nice dinner experience. They have their own parking lot but it gets busy quick with the few other restaurants in the plaza. Definitely will be back! Thanks to the owner and staff. read more

Stopped in for lunch in this AYCE place. The server was very helpful in turning and cutting out meats on the grill. Everything was very good however the spicy meats weren't very spicy. Were stuffed! read more

I highly recommend this place!! The food is delicious, the staff are incredibly friendly, and the cinnamon ginger tea served at the end is truly unforgettable! The side dishes are neat and well-prepared--everything was just wonderful. You should definitely pay a visit! read more

This was my second time at this restaurant. The last time was 2/5/20! (6 years ago). The gang from work wanted an AYCE Korean BBQ, IN KOREA TOWN, that was reasonably priced with great food and easy parking. So, I recommended going here. THIS IS THE PLACE!!! THE PLACE!!! We were 7 adult women from a top medical practice in Century City ... nurses, managers, one of our practitioners ... two of them brought their daughter (under 5 yo). Our cars were valet parked for $3 each on a Friday night. The owner, herself, greeted us as we arrived (I had called earlier and said there would be 10 total and we'd need one high chair). They were ready! One server (I didn't catch his name) was in super-hustle mode ... bringing food out quickly, getting everyone beverages, apple juice for the kids, he kept replenishing both grill tables we occupued with whatever was needed; more kimchi, more rice, more meats - he was paying attention! Everything was super fresh. No one had even the slightest complaint. Bulgogi, Brisket, Shrimp, Octopus ... you name it! We threw it on the grill. My favorite was the Spicy Bulgogi!! A few extras were ordered ... like the steamed egg for a few people, and a soup for one. Everything was perfect! We made things simple for ourselves and the restaurant and put the entire tab on one credit card. With tax and included 18% gratuity the two kids were $18 each ... and the 7 adults split the remainder equally ($52 each). $398 total for 9 very well-fed people!! I offered an additional cash tip because I felt 18% was too low for the WONDERFUL SERVICE we received. The owner kept insisting it was unnecessary ... I insisted it was. Originally from NYC (I used to love Kang-Suh), I have been living in L.A for 22 years. This restaurant is THE REAL DEAL ... culturally on-point (traditional Korean), Quality foods, SUPER FRIENDLY, hard-working staff. The price is ridiculously unpretentious and reasonable. They can accommodate large groups (reserve first) and are kid-friendly. This really needs to be recognized as a top go-to for great Korean food. After 6 years (and riding out the pandemic), this place is still earning my 5 Stars. And I love that it is woman-owned!! read more

7th Korean BBQ - Brisket and baby octopus. - Barbeque Near Me - Los Angeles, California

So glad we ended up here! They accommodated a party of 6 as a walk in and was seated in 5 minutes. The hospitality we received from Jennifer and the rest of the staff was undeniably amazing. There's a ton of other kbbq spots in this area, but come here. You won't regret it! We ordered AYCE at $34.99/per person and while they offer a premium option for a bit more, we really stick to brisket & bulgogi mainly. Sometimes pork belly. We felt adventurous and got an order of octopus and even that was good! Jennifer and a male staff took excellent care of us, laid the meats on the grills for us and instructed to wait a bit longer for the octopus to cook. The banchan variety was excellent with kimchi, salad, radish, pickled bean sprouts, pasta salad, and glass noodles. The steamed egg was yummy, and the dipping sauces went well with the meats. Ask for the spicy sauce! This spot is well lit, inviting, and the ventilation a good. I think the only con is there is only 1 restroom. I believe the parking situation is valet but I'm not sure since we walked from another location over. If I'm ever back in this area again, I will definitely come back. read more

7th Korean BBQ - Bulgogi and brisket - Barbeque Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Our 2nd Visit Was Even More Memorable Our second visit was even more memorable than the first! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they even allowed my service dog to come inside and sit right next to us. That level of kindness and accommodation really meant a lot. Last time, I didn't include photos because I didn't expect the experience to leave such a strong impression on me. But this time, I had to share the amazing food with everyone because it is absolutely delicious. If I could have 수정과 (Sweet Cinnamon Ginger Punch) by the gallon, I would honestly drink it all myself! The owner is always so awesome -- her personality is what truly makes this restaurant experience so special. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers. There was even a bald customer waiting outside to be seated in the blistering 96-degree heat, and she brought out a bag full of ice for him to put on his head because he almost fainted. She also gave him an ice-cold water. If that's not caring, I don't know what is. This time we tried: * Spicy Beef Belly (매운 우삼겹살) * Spicy Brisket (매운 차돌) * Large Intestines (대창구이) * Hot Soybean Soup (된장찌개) * Cheese Corn Always ask for the special hot sauce! Highly recommend -- amazing food, amazing service, and an owner who truly makes you feel valued. read more

Solid for AYCE Korean BBQ. Parking in the shared lot is valet only but is super affordable, the ambiance is decidedly k-town, and the food is pretty much exactly what you'd expect for kbbq. Pork jowl, beef brisket, and beef belly all pretty good this visit, the beef tongue was also good but not quite as generous in cut. Banchan was not the biggest spread but did the job, and the dduk (rice wrap) were available if you asked. They weren't full when we were there, but service, while good, did seem a little harried - guessing like everywhere they are short staffed? 3.5 stars but rounding up seems more fair than rounding down, especially given the price is still reasonable. read more

This all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ spot in LA is so confident in its meat quality that they say, "If it's not good, just walk out." The owner's husband works in wholesale meat, while she runs the restaurant herself. Every morning, they personally select the short ribs, pork jowl, beef belly, brisket, and their specialty beef tongue. read more

This place was SO GOOD. If you're trying to decide which kbbq place to go to in ktown, definitely try this place out! Not viral on tiktok from what I've seen, but definitely deserves to be. All you can eat options are good, but we ordered a combo that said it fed 4-5 people, and that combo FILLED US UP! Had to unbuckle and everything, but it was soooo yummy. The meat is good quality, and the banchans were good. They have rice paper, which is a must for me. Yummy mac salad, yummy japchae, and super yummy cucumber kimchi--probably my favorite one. The best part of this place was the staff!!! The Korean auntie working was the sweetest, and so helpful as she cooked for us. She took care of us so well!!! I will come back 10/10 times just to make sure to give her a good tip. So well deserved. A little place in the same plaza as alchemist, and it's a bit small, but there was no wait for a table on a Sunday night. Loved it here so much. Definitely come here!!! read more

STOP YOUR SEARCH AND GO HERE TONIGHT!! This review is about two weeks overdue, but honestly, the whole experience was amazing and went well above my expectations. We loved everything about it. The meat quality is better than most KBBQ spots I've had around Ktown, and I don't say that lightly. For two years straight I tried a new KBBQ every single week, so I know what I'm talking about. This place has officially made my top 4, and I'll happily bring any group here for a great time. The only thing I'd suggest is adding pitcher options for beer. That said, they do have large beers, soju, and wine. Their steamed egg is made traditionally and tastes nothing like the plain, flavorless version most other KBBQs serve. And their rice wine is incredible! We actually received one as a gift from the owner, who took the time to talk with us about the restaurant's history. She was warm, friendly, and made the whole place feel like home. I know Moodaepo is right across the street. I have a few friends and coworkers who used to work at Wii-KBBQ and moved over to Moodaepo a few years ago, and yes, the servers there are nice. The atmosphere at Moodaepo is great for a big group that wants to drink and have fun, but that's really all it has going for it. Take it from someone who has lived in Ktown her whole life and hit up KBBQ spots every week for over two years: 7th Korean KBBQ has better meat quality, better service, and better prices. People are sleeping on this place. Go tonight and see for yourself. Thank you for such a great experience. We'll be back very soon! :) read more

Bad food :( The service was great, they were really nice! The dishes however were sub par. The stew lacked essential rich ingredients and the bulgogi quality was mediocre. The bill was $50 pre-tip so it wasn't cheap either. Because of the bland food and high price, I sadly cannot recommend this place! read more

I have very mixed feelings about this place. We stopped by since we were already in the area and noticed there was no wait, so we decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, they only had two employees working on a Friday night, but really only one lady was working. That made the service painfully slow and not very attentive. Everything took a long time to come out. The meat quality was average, it was decent for the price, but nothing special. I also found it strange that instead of marinating the spicy meats, they just poured a bit of sauce over the top, and not even enough to cover everything evenly. The side dishes were good but served in very small portions. Overall, it's an okay spot if you're looking for value, but definitely not the best KBBQ experience. Also, since it's in Koreatown, expect to pay for parking (it was $5 when we went). read more

HANNAH is by far the most welcoming, kind, loving waitress we have ever seen in all of LA k-town and beyond. She worked so hard to make us feel SO welcomed. She gave all the best recommendations, always made sure we had meat to eat, even cooked for us, all with laugh on her face. We even had a birthday cake prepared and she kindly brought candles and flame for us when she didn't have to. Seriously, this is a secret gem and I wish I could keep it lowkey. I LOVE THIS PLACE WILL BE BACK EVERY OTHER DAY TO FILL MY BELLY WITH 10/10 BEST MEAT EVER. INSANE FLAVOR, #1 service. YES!!!!! Love you guys! read more

The owner I believe is treating us like ignorance. Because my 3 boys are ordering one after another set of lil serving of meat, she said to cook longer the meat with attitude and turning the fire slower! It's not our first time eating in a KOREAN BBQ, we know if it's cooked or raw. and the way she said that really out of line. Like saying indirectly, slow down! What a bad customer service. Never come back again. Aside from the place is tiny and very clutter. I will make sure that the department of health will come and visit this restaurant for inspection. read more

7th Korean BBQ is my go to KBBQ joint in Ktown. If anyone asks where to go, I always recommend this place and have taken friends to experience it. I'm finally getting to review this place because I usually just forget in general to review restaurants lol (unfortunately forgot to take pics). Parking is valet for $3 (bring cash) and you can only enter it on Vermont. It's a local mom and pop spot ran by a very friendly lady owner and staff. The place is a comfortable and cozy restaurant. Nothing too fancy and not at all dingy. Feels like you're right at home. My group of 3 went during lunch this past Sunday and pricing for AYCE was set at $34.99 for the cheapest option. They take cash and card. No idea if they take tap, but just call or possibly other reviews might mention it. Service is 10/10. They are always friendly and fast. An older Korean lady served us and shared a couple laughs too. The banchan is always yummy and good variety which includes macaroni salad, cucumber kimchi, kimchi, mung bean sprout, pickled radish, and pickled radish with jalapeno (Jangajji), but I might be forgetting something else too. We were also served a salad, soup, dipping sauce and our choice of rice or rice paper. The meats we ordered this time were the basics: beef brisket, beef belly, pork belly, and bulgogi. I enjoy their quality thin cuts and not overly sweet bulgogi. After reading another review, sounds like their meats butcher standard, which makes sense! This is the only KBBQ I have been to that serves you a nice little refresher at the end of your meal; a sweet cinnamon and ginger drink. I love having this every time! Tasty and refreshing. They also give you a lollipop with your receipt hehe Love this place, will be back yet again! read more

Hidden gem! Super underrated. I came here with my family and truly loved the experience. For an AYCE KBBQ, not only was the meat great for the price, but the service was awesome. The manager had us try her homemade sauce and it was fantastic! I will be coming back again. read more

Amazing service, great hospitality from owner and staff! Quality meat, attentive, great suggestions on how to blend the taste with the Korean BBQ and the sides. The pickled radish was pink and yellow, the presentation and taste was on point! Great ambience will definitely return in the near future with our entire family!!! Lisa and Stacy gave exceptional service made us feel at home and welcomed! I highly recommend this place! read more

It's my first time here and I will definitely come back. My experience was all sorts of deliciousness. Since it's an ayce kbbq, we all got the cheapest deal but it hits the spot. We all loved the thin and non marinated meats but beef belly is the best. Then the pork jowl is on point too. All the other meats are thick and take a longer time to cook and that's not my style to cook that long. Their sauce pair well with all the meats. The nuna (staffs) there took care of us with our orders then they give us little items here and there to try. They noticed my napkin as a bib so they got an actual bib instead. I can't wait to come back here for the premium meats. I highly recommend this place. Pls add me if you like my vibe! read more
