Oh my goodness, BBQ + Rice is SO good! I first wanted to try this place because they have bowls that seemed like a pretty simple and filling option. I tried the bulgogi beef bowl and really enjoyed it. Since I've been trying to cut back on red meat, I started ordering some of their other options and discovered their sweet and spicy fried chicken bites. The chicken comes in these little fried bites covered in sweet and spicy sauce, and it has a nice kick to it. When I say it is spicy, it is SPICY! But it is so good. I usually get it with kimchi and sometimes rice, and it makes for a simple but really satisfying meal. I've ordered both in person and through DoorDash, but I usually prefer going in person. The staff is always really cool and accommodating, which makes the experience even better. I like coming here when I want something that is pretty simple, delicious, and filling without having to think too much about what I want. Definitely recommend giving BBQ + Rice a try! read more

Delightful experience at this simple eatery! The bulgogi salad had a good portion of bulgogi and it was very flavorful. Good cuts of meat and generous portions of vegetables for the salad. The spicy mayo chicken bowl was pretty spicy for me (I have a medium tolerance lol), and ordering kimchi on the side was a good idea! It definitely helped balance out the flavors! Also, the prices can't be beat! Each bowl/salad was around $12/$13. Not bad! Parking was a little tight, but manageable! And there were a few spots to sit inside as well. Definitely worth it to eat there if there's space available! All in all - a solid four stars! I wish the air conditioning was on, though the inside was still comfortable. And it was a bummer that they didn't have water available / only for purchase, and I do wish there was a bit more rice in the spicy mayo chicken bowl! Again, the chicken was so flavorful, I needed just a bit more rice! All minor reasons to not get 5 stars from me, but I would definitely come back here! And - the kindness of the cashier/staff was a solid 5 stars! Thanks for a yummy experience! read more

BBQ+RICE - Studio City - Bulgogi Salad, Kimchi, Spicy Mayo Chicken Bowl - Korean Near Me - Studio City, California

What a great casual place that has great bowls and very affordable! Simple menu with great flavors in each bowl. We got the bulgogi bowl and the black pepper chicken bowl with extra protein, and a side of kimchi. The only thing I'd ask for next time is less sauce; it was drowning in it and it was a little sweet for my tastebuds as well. It's in a small mini mall, but somehow, we were able to find a parking space on a Saturday evening. The person working at the front was very friendly. Their phone/online orders were ringing off the hook! Will definitely be back and would like to try their korean fried chicken. read more

Really good bowls and super affordable. It really is meat and rice like the name says. They sprinkle a little bit of toppings but not much vegetables in there. We also got the kimchi on the side but it seemed pretty old. Small little spot, ideal mostly for takeout. Service was quick and friendly. Parking is really tight and hard to find during the day. read more

BBQ+RICE - Studio City - Bulgogi (Beef) - Korean Near Me - Studio City, California

See all

The portions are huge. I can never finish a bowl in one sitting. The bulgogi bowl is flavorful. The kimchi is savory which is nice. So many places make kimchi more sweet these days which I do not prefer. The tofu bowl is very good too. The cucumbers are NOT traditional Korean bachan flavored cucumbers which are usually savory and often spicy. These cucumbers are sweet. This was a surprise to me the first time I tried them. Now I just exclude them when ordering. Staff is nice and the ambience is cute. Great go-to for a quickly prepared, yummy and filling meal. read more

I came here to say to try them out, I met Luis (Manager) and he was very friendly and professional, he recommended their Bulgogi Bowl, I ordered it and liked it very much. I also ordered their Korean Fried Chicken (sweet and spicy) it was delish when I ate it with the bulgogi bowl, I was surprised that it was chicken diced up (cut Kinda like orange chicken), it would have gone great with plain white rice. I took pictures of their places (menu,hours and dining area) Parking is a bit tight, it's a strip mall type of place that is easy to overlook because of curves of the road, a good landmark is it's across the street from Sprouts Market. The food is tasty and reasonably priced, service is friendly and excellent. I would highly recommend this place. read more

Small counter service place. Service was fast and friendly. Spicy chicken bowl was excellent. Not just chicken and rice. Enough vegetables and sweet pickles to keep each bite interesting. read more

This is one of their newer location that just opened up, I have gone to their other location around LA and I will say they definitely have the same consistency of producing a good bowl! We went around lunch time so the kitchen was a little busy but we only waited about 10-15 minutes (as a group of 8) for our meals and everything was super fresh!! I usually get the beef bowl but this time I got the spicy mayo chicken and both are highly recommended. The costumer service is friendly and they keep the establishment clean also. Shop is pretty small with only 4 tables but the quality of the food is worth the wait even if you take it to go! read more

This place is quick and yummilicious!! I have never set foot into this place so I won't be able to talk about the ambiance BUT I can definitely go over the food. They have a really simple menu which could've been good or bad but for here it's a good thing. It could've been bad if they had a small menu and the food sucked. BUT it's good cuz the food is delicious!! My hubby's favorite is the bulgogi bowl with extra rice. I go back and forth from the spicy chicken to the spicy pork. They both come over rice with mixed veggies like cabbage, onions, mushrooms which is so freaking delicious!!! You can also get it with extra rice or extra veggies so that it is more filling even though for me it is filling enough. Normally it is good enough for 2 meals for me or one meal for my hubby. Lol I have yet to have anything that I didn't like. The bulgogi is good. The spicy chicken and spicy pork is delicious. They also have the other KFC (Korean fried chicken) which was yummy! I've had it twice and I think they need to work on the batter a little BUT it is still so yummy especially as K-Town is about a 45 minute ride away from here. Lol Each bowl comes with house made pickles. The pickles are kinda like sweet butter pickles but more sour. Whatever it is, it is yummy and adds a nice crunch and works like a palate cleanser too. It's delicious. They always package the food well for delivery so that it reaches me well. And the food is always always piping HOT. Normally, food from delivery is a little lackluster but here, everytime it's been hot, fresh and flavorful. Overall, this is a 5/5 stars for me. The price is right, the portions are HUGE and the food is flavorful. What else could a girl ask for? Lol read more

BBQ+RICE - Studio City - Bulgogi rice bowl with an added egg. Well made. - Korean Near Me - Studio City, California

Their bulgogi bowl is so good and fresh. Tastes like you made your own bowl straight off the kbbq grill. All that's missing is some banchan and rice paper lol. The rice to meat ratio is good. They do overload it with onions which isn't my jam so I had to pick out some. It's also kid friendly meaning not spicy at all so my little one was able to share with me. They have huge portions too! Perfect for one or one and a half in my case. Really good Korean bowl spot in the valley. A must try! read more

Compared to other locations this place for some reason serves everything burnt. Doesn't matter what you order, that's all you taste. As if the grill hasn't been cleaned since it opened and you get char flavored everything. I've ordered multiple times over the last year and it's been consistent. I've gone back to the WeHo location because they don't have that weird burnt taste to everything. read more

I like the food it's good, good price. My problem is the people that work there!! Rude!! They are not very friendly. I cannot stand when I go somewhere, spend my money to their establishment and I come in very polite and happy and they just make me leave feeling like I did something wrong to them!! Nasty attitude read more

Just ordered this for take out today. You do need to wait cause they make it fresh from the wok. But it's worth it - delicious, and it's a lot of food. I tried their kimchi today - taste very fresh and not too spicy for me. read more

BBQ+RICE - Studio City - Beef Bulgogi bowl - Korean Near Me - Studio City, California

Wish I had one near me. More variety for veggies than your standard rice bowl place and the flavors are there. Gyoza so good, I had to order more. read more

I've been going to BBQ+RICE since the OG location first opened on Sunset years ago, two blocks from my old apartment. When I saw they opened one near me in the valley, I was super pumped. My girlfriend and I each grabbed a bowl. She got the Bulgogi Beef while I got the Spicy Pork. I also got a side of the spicy Korean Fried Chicken. The guy that took our order was friendly. After a little wait, we received our food and went home. The portions were big and fresh. It was still really warm when we got home and delicious. This place has been consistently good for years and I'll be back soon. read more

Just found this place while looking for something new for A quick solo dinner. Solid, solid, solid. Had the black pepper chicken. It was excellent, place was clean and simple. Staff was friendly. For a quick bite under $15, I'm a fan. read more

First time trying this and loved it. Didn't know there were a couple located through the city, one in Venice and the other one off Santa Monica and wilshire. Food is great, pricing is right and simple menu. Go to spot for lunch if you need a stop for quick Korean bowl. read more

Ktown location is probably still the best one but I'm so glad they opened this location in studio city it's top tier food. My only issue here is the kfc is not the same quality as other locations I'd really look into that. read more

I live next door and am happy with this place. Straightforward menu, tasty, surprising value! I compared 3 rice bowls side-by-side (BULGOGI BEEF, BLACK PEPPER CHICKEN, SPICY PORK). Each had potent flavors that were uniquely satisfying in their own way. Really can't rank them. Strongly recommend adding EXTRA VEGGIES to make it more balanced/healthy and not such a meat bomb. KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN - Not a huge fan of asian fried chicken since breading isn't crunchy. These are pretty good despite that. Not greasy/oily. You can get it coated in sweet & spicy sauce, but sauce on the side is better to not saturate breading and maintain texture. Sauce is awesome btw, starts sweet and isn't shy with heat - very spicy! KIMCHI - What you expect, but stands out with how they maintain delicate texture of veggies. FRIED CHICKEN DUMPLINGS - Love gyoza and these are a step above most. Big and flavorful with nice fry. CUCUMBER PICKLES - Light and refreshing instead of intense. Almost more cucumber than pickle. read more

The price and portions here are good, the food is just average. I got a tofu bowl and my aunt got the pork bowl to try a new Studio City take out place, and neither of us were enthusiastic about our dishes. read more

Love finding new neighborhood gems. Stumbled across this place and it did not disappoint. For starters, the guy who greeted me (I think his name was Luis) when I walked in was very kind and helpful since I'd never had Korean bbq before. The food was plentiful. I ordered the most popular bowl which was the beef buglione. It was so delicious and HUGE portions. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu. Yum read more

Food was great after a long day at the universal studio. The owner was so nice and friendly.

Service was fast considering there was only a few customers. The food was good and filling. The bulgogi meat was cut up in very tiny pieces and not much vegetables. There was a lot of mushrooms in the bowl which I found to be strange . The kimchi was good and I can tell it was made for Americans ,,,,,,not hot or spicy. Overall it was an ok meal. Expensive for what you get. B read more

I am so happy I found this place . Food is amazing fresh all the time. Great overall definitely returning

The service was great and friendly when I ordered. It didn't take too long to get my food and it was easy to wait. I wanted to like the food more. Overall it was good, but I felt like it was more mushrooms and onions than pork. I also felt like it was missing something and added my own spicy mayo on top which helped. read more

Bulgogi ordered. Hardly edible. Sweet with very few vegetables and spit out gristle from the beef. I suggest if the chef or restaurant owner serves Bulgogi he/she travels to Korea to learn how to prepare the traditional Bulgogi dish in Korea. We did not try any other entrée. We do not plan on returning to this restaurant. read more

Small shop, food was good. It's a bit of a drive for me but if I'm around the area I would definitely come here!

I first tried bbq + rice in silverlake last year and would always order uber eats since then. Happy they opened in studio city and within walking distance from home. Food is still so good and prices are very affordable. Beef bulgogi is a must! I hope they stay for a long time in the neighborhood!! read more

I want to love this place bc it's so incredibly tasty and the greens in the bowls are excellent quality/not soggy! Your choice of meats are great and so flavorful to my taste buds. However, what kills me is the abundance of mushy wet/damp rice that is scooped generously underneath said choice of meats and salad. It's such a waste of food that I wouldn't want to salvage converting to fried rice. read more

Used to get this for delivery when I lived on the west side. So happy they opened a location in the valley. This is going to be a regular for me again. read more

The food was terrible. First time ordering, and I was very, very disappointed. I'm a total foodie and this was just plain old yuck!

Best Asian Chicken I've ever had! The flavor (spicy mayo) was spectacular! New location in Studio City across the street from Sprouts. I hated driving to Korea Town to get authentic Korean food but now the best is just up the street. They have Chicken, Bulgogi, Pork, Beef and Vegetarian bowls. Plus fried chicken, Sweet and Spicy fried chicken, pot stickers and more. The prices are incredible! Also, I met the owner/chef and he's so kind, friendly, and excited to be in our community. Do yourself a favor and go there now. Like me, you'll be happy you did. read more
