Ideal for parties of 6 or less or multiples of 6. (Their set up is 4-6) Good meat, no soup included with their meat package menu. Owner flexible and servers friendly. read more

Very good food and great quality steak! All the side dishes were delicious...... And the glass noodles are outstanding....

I used to love Kim's BBQ Korean Cuisine, but my recent visit was a huge disappointment. From the moment we were seated, we were ignored. This one server in particular had a rude attitude and she insisted we ordered cheese corn and another item we definitely didn't order. Although the food was good, the service was terrible. Our food was left unattended and almost burned, while other customers received quality service. We didn't even get the rice included in our combo because they "ran out," yet we saw other tables that arrived later being served rice. I don't think you should receive that kind of service when you pay all that money... there wasn't even an alternative option to make up for the missing rice. This experience has ruined what used to be a favorite spot for us. Sadly, we won't be coming back. read more

Good services , best chefs excellent food Great to take your family and friends. Really recommended read more

This was passable Korean bbq for a price at the higher end. The brisket was tough. Pork was ok. Bulgogi was pretty good. Banchan was good but it was like pulling teeth to get it refilled. Also our set menu strangely came with literally two small mushroom slices and a single asparagus spear. The mushroom pieces were inedible which I told the owner who ignored me. Also only two bowls of salad were allowed which seemed stingy. read more

This was a nice clean restaurant. We were a group of eight. We had two side by side tables. We ordered two prime deluxe and added glass noodles, steam eggs and soft tofu. We all enjoyed the meal. We definitely come back if we are in the neighborhood. The service was friendly. read more

Staff was really nice and very attentive. The restaurant looks newly built, inside is clean and bright. We ordered the bibimbap and it was delicious! Definitely need to come back and try more items from the menu. read more

I've had Kim's bbq several times and it's pretty good. I have noticed I get a stomach ache after eating here but before I noticed that I would love to get this food. If I figure out what caused my stomach ache to occur and avoided it I will be coming back to order here. read more

I don't frequent Korean BBQ, but really enjoyed this one. It was a good about of food. I'll visit more.

Very glad we tried this Korean BBQ .. it was very good quality meat! We learned a lot from our experience tonight. We would definitely return. We would just order different. Glad we're supporting our local businesses. We got here at 5:30 and got seated no problem but by 6:30 it was jammed packed with people waiting for a table. Glad to see it's doing so good!!! read more

Finally KBBQ in Palos Verdes!!! Great quality meat and other korean soup/meal are fantastic. Highly recommend korean restaurant. AAAA++++

We came here for a birthday' lunch for my hubby and the menu is simple you pick a combo, we picked the middle grade one out of the 3. They gave us free hot tea. You can see in the menu from other photos, the price for food is not too expensive but not cheap either. But the amount of the combo for the 2 of us was perfect. And what we loved was that the owner came out with our meats and started cooking for us!!! He was very serious about the experience and diligently cooked for a while, and said ok it's medium rare now and left so he's not staring at you while we're eating lol. He came back to cook the next batch and kept repeating till we were done! Wow thank you Mr. Kim!!! It looked like his wife was cooking for another table and training 2 young male servers. They were so adorable trying to cook the food. Everything was fresh and good quality, but not as high quality as Tamaen or those Japanese places with Wagyu... but I prefer not to pay $100 per person so this is fine! The other nice thing is that the sides were very small plates but they brought more as they saw empty plates! Yessss I love the sides so that was a plus. The decor is very chic modern but rustic and cool, they played sexy jazz music so it's not like Gen where I feel like I'm at a rave party... or Koryo Jung where I get a headache from the K-Pop, it's just annoying, sorry I know I'm old ok!? I can't relax!!! This was a nice restaurant with attentive servers, quiet clean adult atmosphere and because I didn't have to cook much at all it was even more relaxing!!! The place gets busy so make reservations! Lunch time was very quiet. I wish they would serve wine, but they do have shoju and light beers. They need to add some craft beers. But we're happy and will be back for date night. :) read more

The overall experience was great! The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and kind. It was more expensive than your average bbq place but we treated it as a special occasion and thought it was worth it. The food was fresh and high quality and the sides were yummy. I just wish they had the rice paper, but that's okay less calories lol. I would definitely come back again! read more

We had such a great experience! We went twice already lunch and dinner! The service was really good. The waiter was very friendly and the owner came to our table a couple of times to check everything. So nice! The food was also very good. You can tell the meat was good quality. We also love the seafood pancake. So big and delicious! They did a good job with decoration. The ambience is beautiful. We are coming back for sure! read more

Fantastic Service, Amazingly delicious food. It's a wonderful place to enjoy high quality KBBQ without having to leave the Hill. Shout out to our server, Issac for an outstanding service. Thank you! We will be back sooner than later. read more

We were eating out tonight for my birthday, and a couple of weeks ago I decided on Korean BBQ. Turns out that the usual place was closed, but a little bird called Yelp alerted me to this place yesterday, so we decided to give it a try. We arrived hungry and decided to splurge for the Luxe Combo, given that it was a special occasion, and it was a good amount of food for the hubby, myself and our 5-year-old. The food was great, the price was a bit high, but reasonable for the quality. We will attribute any imperfections in service to the fact that this still the soft opening. I would recommend making a reservation, if possible, as they were fairly busy. read more

Really good food with high quality meats. The sides are yummy as expected and the service is fast.

Mostly enjoyed this Korean BBQ place in RHE. The place itself is very nice and clean. I appreciated that they honored my reservation and sat us immediately at a table marked reserved for us -- bypassing the line at the door. My only issue is that one person started the cooking and walked away and then another came by to give it a stir, also walked away and another person came by, etc. etc. This resulted in somewhat over cooked food. No one ever made it clear that the food was done, and we eventually took over the stirring ourselves because it was becoming apparent that it needed to be done. I would much prefer if they cooked one thing from start to finish, let us know it was done and then come back for round two, or three or whatever. This is only my third time experiencing Korean BBQ and that was my prior experience at the other two places. Ventilation was okay, but I certainly smelled smoke on my clothing on the way home. As others have mentioned, the amount of banchan is a bit skimpy, but when we asked for more kimchee, they brought it out right away. I am willing to go back with more understanding of their process and knowing that I have to keep an eye on the food. read more

Absolutely delicious. Such a pleasure to discover this new gem! Korean BBQ in the neighborhood. Wonderful personal service. We ordered the combo, everything was yummy, but my favorite was the bulgogi. The seafood pancake was generous and crisp perfection, as was the bi bim bap- don't skip this lovely side dish! We'll be back soon... Check it out if you haven't already! read more

I'm so happy Kim's BBQ opened in the PV area, next door to the Bristol Farms. It has been open a little over 2 months and I have been twice in the last 2 weeks. That's how much I like this place. The quality of their meats, their service, the side dishes, everything, from start to finish was great. I am not really sure about all of the negative reviews and it seems as most of them are service based. Keep in mind this is a newly opened family owned restaurant so I am not sure why all of the negativity. Give it a try yourself and you'll see the quality of the meats is great. If you're looking for quantity and AYCE meats, this is not the place for you. I tried both the combo luxe and combo prime and they're both 5 stars in my view. Do yourself a favor and try if for yourself. I am told on the weekends they are very busy so they can not cook for you like they do during off hours, so just be understanding. The food is very good. read more

The food there was extremely fresh and was absolutely great !! All of the waiters did a really good job presenting our food and giving us time to order. The interior design with the lights make the restaurant not too dim but not too bright so it was nearly perfect lighting in the day and night.Overall great flavor AND Service! read more

Expensive but delicious. Very good quality, and happy to have a place on the hill that serves authentic Korean

Just ate here for the first time and I cannot believe how incredible it was! Starting with the banchan, each little dish was so fresh and well made. You can taste the care put into it! We got the Combo Prime and it was the perfect amount of food for 3 people. The meat was outstanding, so tender and cooked to perfection (they cook it for you!) Service was very friendly and attentive! We'll be back for sure!! read more

Amazing food, and even more amazing service. The food was excellent meat quality was perfect. The only issue I have with this place is that it is pretty expensive. It's close to 250 bucks for five of us but it's in Palos Verdes and I guess there's a premium for that. read more

Went a few weeks ago during their soft open week. Food was delicious, the wait was minimal, and the restaurant was clean and organized. The place is large with a good amount of seats. read more

Stopped by on a whim, this was the most fantastic restaurant I've ever been to. Some of the best food on the west coast, safe to say we will be coming back regularly. Mr and Mrs Kim are some of the most hospitable people I have met in my recent life, and I am proud to call myself a customer of their lovely and peaceful establishment. Cheers to the Kim family. read more

With Mar'sel at Terranea, this is easily the BEST restaurant on the Palos Verdes peninsula. Fresh, quality ingredients; authentic; unique; fantastic great-tasting food, and attentive service. An easy five stars. It features a sophisticated menu and a diverse selection of truly special dishes. This is the type of restaurant one sees in the nicest parts of downtowns and in upscale Asian neighborhoods. read more
