Best service friendly personal good food love it will return again soon thank you very much for your service and helpful service

I visited on a Saturday around 6:45pm as a party of four and to our surprise there was no wait. We were immediately seated at a table that seated 6 and Robin was our waiter. I started off by ordering the prime beef (a table favorite), brisket, bulgogi, and beef belly. I was cut off from ordering because four meats is the limit, which I've found to be pretty standard at other kbbq spots. We were also able to order non meat items such as steamed egg, and radish soup. When the server came back, I tried to order another four meats (while two were remaining uncooked) and he told me I had to wait. Then when we cooked the rest of the meats I tried to order another four, and he told me I could only order three. I thought this was odd because 20 minutes ago the limit was four. To make it even more odd, all the other servers kept coming to our table asking if we wanted more meats, and at that time our table was getting full, so we declined. Overall, the food is great, we just had an odd experience with our sever seeming to be stingy. I will also note that we have been here several times prior, and the food has always been quality. Likewise the service has never been stingy like this before, so I'm thinking it was a one off thing. read more

I will never get tired of saying this: BEST KBBQ IN THE VALLEY!! I always recommend this place to everybody I know that enjoys kbbq. I'm basically a walking ad for them at this point haha I've been coming to this place for years, before the name change, and NEVER had a complaint. Their prime beef, brisket, beef belly and pork jowl, everything is 10/10! Take my advice and ask for the spicy mayo. I'm not exaggerating when I say I can have tons of it! Please note, they automatically charge gratuity and honestly, I don't mind it since they've always provided exceptional service! read more

Hanoo Kalbi - Korean Near Me - Northridge, California

Checked out Hanoo Kalbi and had a solid experience overall. What stood out the most to me was the quality of the meat--it tasted fresh, well-prepared, and definitely better than a lot of typical KBBQ spots. Everything cooked well on the grill and had good flavor. Service was attentive, with staff keeping up with grill changes and checking in regularly. The vibe is casual and good for groups. Overall, a good spot if you care more about meat quality. I'd come back. read more

Finally!!!! A good Korean bbq spot that actually makes you crave it more. First time at this place, loved every single bit of it. Great meat options, great selection of options. Good cuts and I'd say premium meat cuts imo. My about favorite was #5 and #6. I believe was the prime beef and bulgogi( were to die for) The service was so good too, made sure to clear out the tables at all times. Refilled out drinks without even asking, options and food don't take long at all to come out. (Granted I was there at a Wednesday at 2pm, not sure how it would look on a weekend. But to be fair service can be different on the weekend. I'm just speaking out of my experience) Ambiance was extremely clean and neat. Bathroom were very clean as well and smelled good. Overall spacious space with lots of seatings. They have 2 options A and B. I got B which honestly it was worth it because it had more options. The only downside honestly, I just wish they had more appetizers or at least the basic app you find at any kbbq like fried rice,miso soup. Just the basic appetizers. But to be fair thy had few soups that I've never had before that we liked and they were tasty!!!! Overall, I think it was a great spot overall and would definitely be going back again. read more

I have been craving korean bbq and didnt really want to go far to drive to downtown LA. Also my cousin is visiting from another country and she likes korean bbq so this was the perfect spot. We got there and was seated right away. We ordered their menu B. We were given 2 sets of menu to choose from: Menu B and Menu C. I wonder what happened to Menu A. Anyway we got our usual meats of brisket, beef belly, steak and pork belly. They give you a decent amount of ban chans. The meat quality was good. The service was good as well. Someone keeps checking on you. The price wasnt bad for a korean BBQ. read more

My friends and I had a wonderful time dining here last night when we came for some Korean bbq. The staff are amazing and we're very attentive to us. They would come and change the grill when they see that it's time for a new one. We went with the Ayce B option for the all you can eat. The prime beef, beef tongue, steak, spicy pork, bulgogi and brisket were delicious. The marinate in the spicy pork has a kick to it but it's not that bad. The price is reasonable and worth it here in my opinion. There a decent amount of parking spots in the plaza this restaurant is in but it does get busy and packed. We would gladly come back again. They also didn't really put a time limit on us so they were very accommodating. read more

Such a good spot meat quality is good and sides are 10/10 and they have rice paper !! Service is also a 10/10 . Price range is great for the quality of everything . read more

The service was excellent and friendly. The seating was very comfortable and clean. The menu selection was excellent and the food was great. We had an amazing meal and an enjoyable time. We'll definitely go back when we're in the area again. read more

Wow. Their service has gotten much better and the meat quality improved as well. Very welcomed and service was excellent that's how it should be if they add gratuity when you pay. Always feel comfy in here and a pleasant experience. Great for big parties and a private room is also available. read more

I liked the staff and comfort level at this restaurant. It sounds strange but furniture is not all created equal for plus size folks and tables tend to be in top of each other so comfort is important to me. Staff is very attentive for drinks, service and changing our grill. The portions and quality are great for the value. There is a 1.5 hour time limit not unlike other AYCE KBBQ and you know when they bring the bill out but they are still nice about it and didn't pressure us. Tip: I have been here before and it's a locals spot. The major obstacle is parking. It's insane so carpool or go to dinner early. Price: $$ read more

This restaurant was an excellent experience for us. We been to other locations but this one felt authentic. The staff was very friendly and will help you if you need help with the meats. Look at the menu before you go so you know what you want, like most places they are very quick with getting orders out. The meat was so good fresh and delicious. All their sides were amazing the cucumber kimchi was amazing. It's open late, it is a nice environment and intimate atmosphere. Will definitely come back. read more

I debated leaving this review back in December because I knew it would not be a positive one, but I value honest feedback when reading reviews myself, so I decided to share my experience. The food itself was good. I have been here before and had a much better experience. Unfortunately, the service during this visit completely overshadowed the food. We ordered the all you can eat option and understood there was a time limit. However, our server ignored us most of the time, even when we tried multiple times to get her attention. Orders came out wrong, items we requested never arrived, and the lack of attentiveness made the experience feel like a waste of money. On multiple occasions, staff attempted to clear plates before we were finished, throwing food onto the grill when we were not ready or removing items that were still unfinished. The breaking point was when our server placed the receipt on the table and told us our time was up, despite the fact that we never fully received what we ordered or proper service throughout the meal. After that, I asked for a manager or corporate contact to file a complaint. I was told the manager was not there and was given a number to call the next day. Shortly after, they returned and said the manager had called and offered complimentary ice cream. Whether or not that was true, it felt dismissive and more like an attempt to smooth things over than to actually address the issue. I came with my brother, and this was his first visit. Unfortunately, it will also be his last due to the same poor service. While I cannot fault the food, the service and handling of the situation were extremely disappointing. Based on this experience, I do not anticipate returning anytime soon. read more

One of the better KBBQ locations in the Northridge area. The meat is excellent, the staff is efficient, and the price is right. It's not obnoxiously noisy like the "trendy" places nearby. Their spicy pork and brisket are my favorite. Parking can be a pain sometimes. read more

My boyfriend and I came for lunch on 4/22/26 and Cindy was so kind. She got us all of our food that we requested and she also made sure to change our grill. She even was so kind when we made some small talk. Definitely coming back. Cindy was so wonderful read more

Had a wonderful time coming back here with my girlfriend today!!! We were lucky to get seated right away as it got busy after with the dinner rush. We were able to get accommodated quickly on what meats we wanted and the service was very attentive by everyone, not just our server!! I will always appreciate the sweet Korean ladies for being so friendly. We were assisted with our meat grilling and we were very grateful for the enhanced interactions for our experience. Happy that the service and the meat quality here is still stellar!! read more

Can't beat $36 for all you can eat and such quality food! Everything was top notch including the marinated meats and side dishes like the kimchi. Great food. Got a couple of soups also and steamed egg, all great. The service was amazing! Our waitress Ellena was so lovely and attentive. I had my kids with me who were being kids but she was so patient and kind. Changed our tray when needed and made sure we were always taken care of. Great atmosphere, everyone was so nice! Can't wait to come back! read more

I didn't expect it to be this good, some meat are frozen maybe because it's already midnight when we had dinner here, but still taste delicious the side dishes was so yummy I love the kimchi so much and the radish paper. I like their steam eggs too read more

I'm a big fan of kbbq, but I find this place just ok. There's really nothing that stands out to me, either it'd be the meat, service, or overall experience. The menu has 3 tiers with different offerings. I find that when I was cooking the meats, it didn't crisp up properly. The sides were alright. I find that a lot of times, the sides make a difference because it separates the place from other kbbq restaurants. read more

My partner and I took my brother who was visiting us for the weekend here and they did not disappoint! We were sat so quickly, that my partner and I said to each other "Wow that was really fast!". And the service was next level, they were so kind and you could tell that they truly valued their customers. Every order we put in was out within 5 minutes, and the quality and quantity was great for the price. The inside was kept clean and their fans were out of your way which I was grateful for, just because I am not a fan of when they're in your face. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys some Korean BBQ and who is wanting to get their moneys worth. Will be back soon! read more

this place is good, pretty solid for valley kbbq! many of their thinner cuts come out frozen but they still render nicely on the grill. love their banchan, especially the fish cake! service is decent, but you'll definitely need to flag people down to ask for napkins, more banchan, more meats etc. the ventilation was not great when we went. the whole restaurant was definitely giving hotbox, lol. you'll need to wash your hair after. they automatically add gratuity, btw, so be aware of this! I love that they have both rice paper and radish wraps, though. read more

The food is bomb, the service is even better. The prices very reasonable. Highly recommended for a bbq spot . 10 for this restaurant

This place is fire.! Shout out to all of the employees. They were all on fire ready to help and serve us nothing but the best. Don't cheap out.! Get combo B Or C . Quality or quantity.! Thank you again to our beautiful server ! read more

This place is way better than GEN, you get better portion sizes you actually get service. Yeah it's pricey but the food is good, staff actually take care of you. It's big restaurant and probably one of the top restaurants, for this type of food. read more

For $89 including 15%tip not bad. I was confused though on the spicy beef soup with no beef. It was just broth and veggies . However the rest of the meat it was good quality and nice portion. The service was good. The ladies were attentive and helpful. Inside is clean. Good place read more

Our favorite kbbq in Northridge. Great selection of meats for the BBQ at a great price. I especially appreciate that they carry beef tongue because not all kbbq places have it, but it's my favorite. The service is very quick and home-y. Definitely a great place to go with a group of people. read more

I'm so bummed! The meat quality has definitely gone down :( their brisket and beef meats were tough and frozen. I don't know if it was because we came on a weekday, but the last time we came here on a weekend and the meat was great! The servers are nice, quick and attentive but man, the price is not worth it for the quality. On a brighter note, the pork jowl and the tongue were good, I'd come back for just that. read more

I'm sorry but I cannot give this place anything above 2 stars. We eat kbbq for the meats and the quality of their meats is bad. The brisket and beef belly are rubbery and I made sure not to overcook them. Spicy pork is very bland. Even the banchan choices are very limited. Our server is nice but our grill never got replaced. The ambiance is okay. Your typical kbbq ambiance. Will we come back? No, unless we absolutely have to. There are much better kbbq spots in the valley within a similar price range but better food. read more

No lines outside and no wait to get seated. It was 2 adults and 2 children. We were there 47 min. Waitress ignores me when I ask for straws. Second time she came around I asked again and she made a face a came back to throw straws at the table. Food comes out right away. One thing I hate is being rushed. She starts to pick up plates and then the sides. It was very annoying and then she comes back with the bill and pointed at it showing the highlighted gratuity and if we were ok with it. We say ok and continue to eat. I still have a plate of food I am working on plus a small sapporo. She comes back and says thanks for coming like if she wanted us to pay then and there. I ignore her because I'm still eating and am within the stupid 90 min limit. Then she continues to take plates off the table. For the amount I paid tonight I should have been left alone to eat in peace and enjoy my food and beer!!!! The lady was rude and this is the second time this happens. First time we thought it was because it was a weekend and let it pass. There was no line outside and closing time was more than an hr and 45 away. Won't be going back. read more

Hanoo Kalbi - Receipt - Korean Near Me - Northridge, California

We had a very good experience from the moment we arrived. The waiters were very polite, friendly, and always checking on us. Everything we asked for came right away, and they made us feel welcome and comfortable. The food was delicious. The brisket was tender and full of flavor, and the pork belly was amazing. Every dish we ordered was fresh and tasty. We enjoyed everything so much that we stayed for two hours and ate more than we planned. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions you get. The only small issue is parking. The plaza has many businesses, so parking spots are limited. You may need to be patient and drive around a little to find a space. Overall, five stars! Tasty food, great service, and good prices. We will definitely be coming back. read more

I came here with my bf around 10pm because we didn't want to drive to KTOWN. it was decent, but not the best quality meats. I'm a bit picky when it comes to brisket and I found it too thick and chewy, same with the beef belly. The marinated fingers were really good. I like the different soup options. And the service was good. It's kind of nostalgic coming and eating at this restaurant because I used to come here as a kid, but it used to be different name back then. Gratuity is included in the bill, not too bad pricing but for the quality of meats, i would pay a bit more some place else. It was all still enjoyable tho. read more

The food is great.. my adult kids love Korean bbq now that we live here in the valley we have something to look forward to try out new restaurants.. read more

Hanoo? More like HellNO Words and stars cannot express how disappointed me and my friends were. The meats were good to start with. Service was absolutely horrible. And to charge a 15% gratuity to all parties regardless of size is absolutely ridiculous and completely understandable considering their customer service is non existent and they probably would get nothing on tip if they didn't automatically charge for it. We were trying to get extra sides, order more meat, and get a grill change but they just kept walking by our table. We finally got the attention of one of the employees and she aggressively said "what do you want?" then after we told her she was like "is that all?" and then when she brought everything she proceeded to throw everything on the table. Afterwards, we ordered a steak, but when we got it, it was still frozen. And all the meats after were such poor quality. We had to grill the steak longer and it ended up being super tough and the grill was then again burnt. So when we asked for a grill change, she said "oh but you only cooked steak on it" yes, we did but we were so confused as to what the problem is.. did she want us to continue cooking on something burnt and have inedible food? she then proceeded to say something in Korean to her co workers and they all started to walk by to look at our table. Great. Really loved that vibe. There was only one employee that ended up helping us but even then, all the staff kept avoiding us. All because we asked for a grill change multiple times? When our time was up a different lady came up to us and just said to us. "you guys don't want to order more meat right? because your time is up, you can't order anymore" Then we had to wait another long while to ask for our check and then of course while we were checking and signing the check she stood right there waiting for me to sign it. We were looking at the check to make sure they rang everything up correctly because we live about an hour away. The lady thought we were worried about the price of the beer but no we were just trying to make sure everything was correct. I just told her "yes thanks we were just checking" and she shoved the receipt in my face. On top of that, they clean everything with windex which is NOT food safe. Which makes sense to those other reviewers that got sick. So let's see how me and my friends feel after. Save your money, don't come here. read more

Hanoo Kalbi - Using windex to clean the tables. - Korean Near Me - Northridge, California

If you're craving top-quality Korean BBQ, Hanoo Kalbi is the place to be. From the moment you walk in, the service is attentive without being intrusive, and the vibe is warm and welcoming. The meat? Absolutely incredible. Everything we tried--especially the marinated galbi and pork belly--was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. You can really taste the difference in quality. The side dishes (banchan) were fresh and plentiful, and they kept them coming without even needing to ask. Grilling at the table was fun, and the staff jumped in to help us get it just right. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend for date nights, group dinners, or when you just want to treat yourself to a seriously good meal. read more

Came here for some Korean BBQ. We really enjoyed the Beef Brisket and the Prime beef. I wasn't a fan of their sides. The only thing I really enjoyed was the rice paper and some of the salad. But I have to say the lettuce seemed old. I requested a new one and the same thing. Maybe it was because we got here in the evening. The service was great. The waitress was very attentive. read more

I've been coming to this spot at least few times now, didn't realize I never thank them. I guess , I see it differently now in comparison with other places I've been recently to. For starters, I was shocked when I saw the reviews, never I'd think I'd see such low rating for this spot. I guess you can never please everyone... but hey there are 2 - 100% satisfied customers, my husband and I :). The customer service here is outstanding!!! From the moment you open the door, you will be greeted with a smile ! It's hard to find such nice and attractive service. I'm no expert on meats, they were great to my test! All my expectations were met and next time I won't even think go any other place but this one! Highly recommended! P.S didn't think I never posted , so took no pics this time ...next time! read more

Food was good; the quality of the meats were pretty decent. Spicy pork and brisket were the group favorites. Pork belly was meh. The kimchi was absolutely delicious and the sides were also good. The service was ok. Our main waitress brought things right away but it was busy and when we couldn't get ahold of her would ask this other waitress working in our section. She was not very friendly and although would bring the meats out quick she wouldn't bring back sides or condiments in a timely matter and once not even at all. Other than that it was a nice dining experience. read more

Second time here, and for some reason the meat tasted better than I remembered. Parking lot sucks and there were no parking when I came on a Friday night so I ended up parking at a nearby street, plenty of parking there. In terms of service, they were very accommodating for my large 11 person party, they sat us in two 6 person tables next to each other. For dinner you're only able to select from selection B or C but B for $35.95 had plenty enough of selection. Here are some selections that I enjoyed. Steak - It comes in a huge frozen slab but turned out delicious with the sauce. (4/5) Bulgolgi - A staple and it was good. No complaints. (4.5/5) Spicy Pork - I like the spicy marinade and would recommend! (5/5) Any Pork Belly - It's fatty goodness so whats not to love. (4.5/5) Shrimp/Squid - Thought this was actually really good. Good taste and delicious when grilled. (4.5/5) Brisket - Always good and this one hit. Good with the dipping sauce. (5/5) Overall I like that they staff was so attentive and the meat came out quick. We also brought our own birthday cake and they helped us celebrate my friends birthday without any extra charge. The kbbq is a bit pricey (15% gratuity was automatically added probably because of our large party) so total came out to be $45 per person but I thought overall was good. read more
