I stopped by here with my husband, brother, and some friends and I'm glad we did. It's a great AYCE place with three different packages you can choose from. We were sat relatively quick and our server was attentive at first but afterwards, it took her a while to come to us. I've heard the service is a hit or miss here. There were other servers that served us and were more attentive. Definitely a great place to go for AYCE KBBQ but just note service can be iffy! read more

Here we go first the bad: Only 3 items per round no matter how many people are at your table. Second the servers took care of us but all of them had no enthusiasm or friendly vibes. More of a what do you need kind of attitude. For the good. The food was good and lots of it. Also nice atmosphere and good drinks. read more

I went here for lunch with my partner today and it was a great experience. The hostess was very friendly and seated us for the all you can eat BBQ quickly. She took our orders shortly after we were seated and we were on our way. We had the beef bulgogi, teriyaki beef, spicy chicken, honey chicken, and teriyaki chicken. It was all fantastic! They were switching out the hot plates every time they got too dirty and did a good job of clearing the empty plates. The restaurant was very clean and wasn't too loud. The bathrooms were clean. Parking isn't too bad even during peak times because the restaurant is tucked into a shopping center so there were plenty of spots to choose from. I definitely think we will be back here. read more

One of my favorite places in Eugene! Great service, quality meats, and a wonderful ambiance. It checks the boxes for KBBQ! While the menu is limited compared to other KBBQ experiences (like in L.A. or larger cities), for Eugene, this is the spot. I recommend getting the steamed egg and galbi--but there really is something for everyone! read more

amazing food and service! we got the AYCE premium package and had 5 sides and rice ready at the table when we were sat. we got bulgogi (to die for), spicy chicken, and shrimp. first KBBQ experience and it was so fun! our server Lisa was on top of replacing our grill, getting new meats, replacing water, etc. the melona ice cream was so refreshing and yummy too, perfect end to a perfect meal. read more

The grill plate was absolutely disgusting -- completely black and never cleaned. Not one staff member even bothered to check or offer to replace it. Every server just walked by, glanced at it, and ignored it like it wasn't their problem. If I hadn't called someone over myself, it would have stayed that way the whole time. What's worse, my table was right next to the front, and I could see the staff just standing around chatting instead of paying any attention to customers. It's lazy and unprofessional. BTW, we had just arrived and only got one round of food. For a place that boasts "all you can eat," this was far from it. Honestly, this place was a complete disappointment and a total 180 from the experience I had at their Portland location! read more

Great Korean bbq. The exhaust fans are the best I've ever experienced. My clothes didn't smell after dinner, like most other bbq spots. The service was good, the meat choices were tasty and the side dishes were delicious. I knocked a star off for 2 reasons, nothing major but annoying. 1 - maybe this just isn't something they do, but at all other Korean restaurants we've dined at, they've offered to swap out the hot plate when it gets crusted. We weren't offered that option. 2 - we mentioned 3 times that we were done with our meal and then never saw our waiter again. We had to ask another employee for our check. A little frustrating as we had been done with our meal for a while. Would those two issues stop me from going back? Absolutely not. We'll be back often. read more

Having been gone from the Bay Area for decades and missing the cultural diversity, I was all in when I heard Eugene had a Korean BBQ spot, and All You Can Eat (AYCE)... say whaaaaat?!? So they give you 2 hours, with a last call at the 1.5 hr mark. You can order 3 meats at a time, from their extensive menu of 3 different pricing plans. Got there before 6pm on a Saturday evening and the wait list grew rapidly, but we were sat within 15 mins. Lotsa young kids tending to the tables, giving friendly and helpful service. This team was always moving and I quickly realized we would need to snag them on their way coming and going. I loved that they changed our grill plate as it got gooey... they probably saw me trying to scrape it clean, haha! Though they were pretty busy we didn't feel forgotten or like we were bothering them if we needed to flag them down for something. All in all a fun 1st time for most in our group. My favorite part was that my growing boys finally got stuffed from the mass quantity of protein... it's not often they will tap out when there's meat around! read more

This joint is a great spot for the "Korean bbq" experience. You get to cook your own meet and it' comes in massive portions. They play k pop music videos and serve soju, making you feel the authentic Korean bbq experience. Staff is attentive and they get quite busy at times but the commitment to table touches and service is not missed. Whenever you m craving Bulgogi this is the spot! read more

I actually really enjoy this location of Kkoki, but at my last visit I noticed that beef brisket was now on a higher price range for the kbbq and I just visited the Portland location where beef brisket is still on the standard menu and I am a bit disappointed that that has been moved up in Eugene. read more

Whenever we're in the mood for all-you-can-eat hibachi-style Korean BBQ, KKOKI BBQ is our go-to spot! The variety of meats and side dishes is fantastic, and everything is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. Beyond the food, the service is top-notch--the staff is friendly, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. They're always making sure you have what you need and are quick to swap out the grill so you're never cooking on a burnt surface. Best of all, it's super affordable for the quality and experience you get. It's the perfect place for a fun, interactive meal with family and friends. If you're looking for amazing food, great vibes, and excellent service at a great price, this is the spot! Can't wait to come back! read more

The service was swift and considerate. The food was about what one should expect from a good restaurant.

Just happened to stumble unto this spot while searching on Yelp in Eugene. My wife and I love KBBQ, and even more so if its AYCE! There was a slight wait when we first got there, which is usually a good sign, and despite being an AYCE we didn't have to wait for too long. They have 3 types of packages depending on the food you want, with seafood being on the premium tiers. For the 2 of us we were very content with the selection for the standard package and for the cost, you REALLY can't beat it. Having had most of our KBBQ in Portland and Seattle, the average cost for AYCE typically ranges from 35-50+, so this was a huge surprise for us. Meat selection is great. Quality seems up to par with most other KBBQ. We truly enjoyed the variations of Samgyeopsal. Side selection was a little lacking, but maybe that's because I prefer other sides like glass noodles and tofu. read more

Really great service -- above and beyond even for take out. Good Korean food at reasonable prices. They had a really good selection on their menu -- everything from the right comfort soups to the highly popular dishes traditional to Korean restaurants. Ordered takeout and it was delivered as needed on time. Couldn't ask for more. read more

I had a pickup order. I always get the bulgogi stew. They now put the noodles at the bottom, in stead of on the side. I was not impressed with the meal at all, soggy noodles, no sides and it went up in price. Will not be returning! read more

i went here on valentine's day when it was packed despite how busy it was everyone was super nice and on top of things!! our server kept checking that we had everything we needed, and that we were fine. everyone was awesome and the food was amazing as always read more

Wow. I had never had Korean BBQ before, so I was a little nervous about the whole process. However, I had had such a blast! The employees were very helpful with any questions and were attentive. We got the step up from the standard package, and I think I would do that again. Every meat we got was so good, particularly the soy garlic pork belly, the LA galbi , and the Hawaiian beef! I'm still thinking about them days later. We also tried the steamed egg and cheese corn, which were also fabulous. Something you must order is the soju cocktail! I wish more restaurants offered soju cocktails and this one was so good. I also liked how the restaurant itself was very nice. I appreciated the very separate tables and the ranges that kept odors and smoke to a minimum. We will absolutely be back, and hopefully soon! read more

So disappointed. I was looking forward to going all week, and finally had time on Sunday. Looked through the website and all the info I could find online to make sure I could go alone. When I get there, I tell them just one, they seat me with a menue and say nothing. Then the server comes up and asks if I'm ready to order, then proceeds to tell me you can't order all you can eat if you're solo, only the ala cart section. I'm a little annoyed by this, but I know it's not his fault. I wait 15 minutes, excited to cook my food, even though it's not exactly what I wanted to order. He comes back, hands me a to go container, and asks how I would like to pay. ... what? I pay without a fuss, and leave, but now I'm just so upset. Not even upset- just sad. I was so excited, I thought I could finally have some space to myself and have a nice meal, but no. The worst part? It was so expensive. $45 or so if I remember correctly. I realize now that I could have spoken up, said I still wanted to eat there, I just don't have that kind of courage. Genuinely so wrecked and disappointed. read more

Really good food! Definitely take someone who knows how to bbq the food well! It's a bit pricey and, if I'm remembering correctly, you HAVE to finish the meat they give you or they charge you more, which I'm personally not a fan of. The staff is very friendly. The restaurant itself is very nice! read more

It was such a blast. We had a massive group of first timers with my family. We treated a big group of RC car drivers from southern Oregon out for their very first Korean bbq experience! They were a little hesitant at first, but loved the food! Everyone kept saying how much of a blast they had. read more

Sadly I've experienced Korean BBQ in there homeland. It's much better over there. However it's still a fun experience here just no lettuce wraps. And well my main gripe is the rule changes and price. You cant enjoy it alone anymore it stabs your wallet at a minimum$30-60 for a decent meal had I been allowed to just enjoy the buffet and eat my fill I could see the price hike but this is unattractive in every way now. I'll have to try 4+3 now and check the changes. Or just give up Korean BBQ all together read more

At first, we didn't know you had to sign in for wait list as many would ask you if you were waiting or who was first. Another party walked in as we were sitting and waiting for someone to come to the front. They hostess knew them and immediately got them set. I then asked how does this work and got my name on. They didn't remember to bring things we requested as they seemed short handed. If only our they could've done so the rating would be higher. Food was decent and we ate good. Hoping for a better experience, but there is also another Korean BBQ place to give our hard earned money to. read more

I LOVE this place. It reminds me of living in NYC and going for late night dinners in K-town. The food is hot, the beer is cold and the place is open late. We always get the seafood pancake to start followed by marinated ribs and bulgogi beef. This is the perfect amount for 4 people. We've never done the all you can eat. It seems like overkill for just the two of us. Service is always friendly and prompt. And the K-pop music videos are mesmerizing. read more

Service was the terrible. The waitress ignored us and actually gave us dirty looks. I will never go back. We go to Salem restaurant all the time. Service is great read more

I've been interested in trying out the Korean BBQ thing for a while and we finally had the opportunity to try it out. We went with this location over other local options due to the number of meat options on the basic menu. There are rules that come with all you can eat like a time limit and a 10 dollar fee for wasting food if there are leftovers so show up hungry lol. You can order half portions so that you can try more different kinds of meat which I wish we had done more of. There are quite a few little sides and a small dish of rice but of course the star of the show is the insane amount of meat that you get to cook yourself. My hubby didn't love the whole raw meat on the same table as the cooked meat thing and yeah you definitely have to remember which utensils you used for what. Every meat option that we tried was yummy but I think I'll come back for one kind next time, probably the Hawaiian beef or the beef bulgoogi. The servers were attentive and brought us a new grill when ours was getting pretty messy and refills of meat and veggies when ever requested. Due to the lovely side effects of eating that much meat in one sitting I don't think I'd go with AYCE again but it was fun to try once! read more

I had an amazing dinner tonight at Kkoki Bbq. It was my first time trying Korean bbq and I was far from disappointed. You can order off the menu or do all you can eat where you cook on the grill yourself. You have two hours for the all you can eat which is pretty generous. It is a 10$ charge for leftovers but they offer half portions which can help avoid that. We did the standard all you can eat. Price was reasonable for how much you get. It comes with rice, various side dishes, veggies, and rice cakes. My favorite meats we got were the Hawaiian beef and the bulgogi beef, I would definitely recommend ordering these. So delicious and flavorful. Although, I didn't love the pork or brisket ones as much as the beef and chicken. The ambiance of the restaurant is superb and servers were above and beyond friendly/accommodating. Always coming around asking us if we needed anything and refilling our waters. This is such a fun experience I would strongly recommend coming here if you've never been! read more

Kkoki BBQ Eugene - Korean Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Short: Good selection. Flavorful and authentic. A hidden gem. Service needs some work. Visited week of Dec.8th, 2022 I arrived with my friend around 5pm and we were instantly seated. They asked if we needed menus and then handed us some. It is mainly an All you can eat buffet. However, they do have menu course items and appetizers. Service: It could have been better. Basically, the first server did a decent job. He was confused that we did not want the buffet. However, he then handed us the menus. The two servers did not check on us, and after 10-15 mins. I had to call one over to start my order. The second server took our order. He looked disheveled and was now suddenly in a rush. He quickly made a suggestion, which I later regretted. When paying, it wasn't clear if we handed it back to the server or to approach the counter. Food: I ordered the cheese corn [appetizer] and Dolsot Bibimbap [hot stone bowl w/ bibimbap - recommended]. My friend ordered the spicy chicken buldak [roughly inspired by the hot noodles]. They did present us with the side dishes with our appetizers. Fish cake, Pickled radish, kimchi, bean sprouts, and broccoli. [Cheese Corn] This trendy Korean appetizer really hit the mark! Plenty of hot corn and melted cheese on top. It definitely gave that stringy cheese effect and it was quite addicting in taste. [Dolsot Bibimbap] Originally, I just wanted the regular cold Bibimbap. However, considering the weather the server suggested the Dolsot - hot stone version. Unfortunately, the hot stone was **extremely** hot. Which was warned, but not at all expecting it to be extreme. The stone bowl basically burnt my rice to crispy. Some like crispy rice as a snack, but to have all of my rice with my meal crispy, was unpleasant and almost inedible. I only let my dish sit for a few minutes. Unfortunately, this greatly affected my dish experience, and I doubt I will try the Dolsot here again. Even after at least a half hour, the hot stone was so extremely hot. (I understand hot stones are meant to be hot, but not where it is dangerous and makes the food practically inedible due to temperature and crisp/burnt) . [Spicy Chicken Buldak] This was a solid entree choice. It was stir-fried chicken in plenty of chili oil and other spicy sauce covered in melted cheese. It could have been spicier in my opinion, but it reminded me of the hot instant noodle bowls. I definitely would recommend it, and there was plenty of chicken to share! It was also served on a hot skillet. Price: Cheese Corn was about $8. Dolsot Bibimbap was about $18, +$3 more than the regular cold version. Spicy Chicken Buldak was $25 for a large plate and came with a rice bowl served separately. Extra: They do have Soju and Soju Cocktails! The cocktails are about $19, but it is 35 oz. The buffet prices are around $30. You can be there for about 2 hours, according to the signs. Plus, they have tv screens playing a variety of Korean Music Videos. (yes, K-pop included). Overall, I wish I could have enjoyed my main course more. I definitely will be visiting again because I would love to try the K-BBQ buffet. read more

Great food and service! Had the all you can eat for 2 people and grilled it ourselves. Friendly staff and fun drinks.

Weird place to go, they charge a lot of money for food that you cook yourself. Servers have zero personality and it is an inconvenience that you are there. Basic restaurant with very little decor that is dirty and it is very hot inside! read more

Eating Korean BBQ and figuring out what to order and how to do stuff is a bit of an adventure. 1st I'd like to say that I liked most of the meat we tried. My favorites were #2, 3, 9, 11, 14 and 28 The side dishes provided were small but able to order mores. I liked the salad, sliced fish cake and a pickled sliced root. (Not sure what it is) Regarding the service. Lionel was the best. He was very attentive and sweet. read more

Stopped in Eugene with the family on the way up to Seattle and was very pleasantly surprised by how great this place was! I'm from the Bay Area and consider my myself very lucky to be surrounded by so much good food. I was prepared for this restaurant to just be ok but it far exceeded my expectations! I would definitely say here again. First, let's talk about the service. For being short staffed tonight, we felt very well taken care of. They were friendly, made great recommendations, attentive (but not stalker vibes) and very quick to fulfill orders. The food was great! Loved the banchan. Bummed they don't carry rice sheets but all good. We did all you can eat B and ordered the brisket, beef jerky, kalbi and pork jowl. Everything was great except I don't think we're huge fans of pork jowl. The texture is not for us. Come check this place out! read more

We went as a party of 5. First time trying this type of restaurant and it was listed as all you can eat so we went hungry. They sat us at a table with one burner the size of a large dinner plate. We cooked meats and veg for 2 hours straight and none of us were even close to full. They limit customers to 3 meats per round for the entire table. If you order chicken you get ONE chicken thigh which is very thin and covers the whole burner and takes about 8-10 minutes to cook. Split one thigh between 5 people and that's ~1 bite per person. This was a very frustrating way to eat. The food tasted good once it was cooke it was just hard to enjoy a dinner at a rate of 1 bite each every 8-10mins. Had we been a party of two it might have been a better experience. Or had they sat us at a table with 2 cooktops then it might have been better. The staff wasn't rude but they also were not helpful AT ALL. In fact the burner was set so low it would have taken 20 minutes to cook the meat had we not figured out how to turn it up. There was no rice or anything else offered beyond the tiny bowls of kimchi and stuff that was on the table (not even enough in them for 5 people to have a bite of each) when we sat down and never got refilled. I have never had such a frustrating dining experience. And we paid $170 for this experience. It would have been 0 stars except that the meat itself was tasty once it was cooked. read more

We have tried this place twice for AYCE dinner. Each time, pretty good experience! Excellent meats (we love the beef brisket and bulgogi) and the banchan is tasty. They are quick to service you at the beginning, but near the end of your visit, they are slow to check in with you (maybe to deter you from order more meat?). They will readily give you more banchan, salad, rice, and lettuce wraps if you ask. Their banchan is different every day, and I love the variety. The interior of the restaurant is nice and clean, they often play k-pop music. We sat at the biggest table (for a bday dinner) and it fit 8 people comfortably. They said they can fit 12 people in one space, but it is kind of tight. I'd love to try some of their items off of the AYCE menu, like the bibimbap or japchae. Hope to return for lunch sometime soon! read more

Good customer service. Food is great. A good place to eat Korean food in Eugene with the family.

I can't say that I've had a chance to dine here, but I tried. Being a lone wolf has its perks and disadvantages for me, but here it's the latter. The two person minimum for all you can eat really blows. If they changed that policy to be more kind to independent people, perhaps my rating might be higher. I've gone to plenty of other Korean BBQ places that weren't petty and would serve singles all you can eat like it wasn't a big deal. read more

PSA. To everyone within a 30 mile radius to Kkoki KBBQ; y'all have NO idea how BLESSED you are to live near this restaurant. You guys can forego the round-trip airfare to LAX ($175) and eat just like the Koreans do in KTOWN LA for the price of $30 per person. Utterly shocked that this restaurant even exists in Central Oregon. Two Thumbs up for the unexpected surprise The true test to any KBBQ house is their chadol (brisket). If their chadol sucks, then everything else they serve sucks imo. If you understand how to pick your brisket, then all of the other meats will be on point. This place has some good chadol brisket so that quickly got my attention and won my favor. Service is also very accommodating and the waiters and waitresses know how to serve customers KBBQ style. Q&A ~ Question: Why is there a sliver of KTOWN LA in the middle of Oregon....? Answer: Complete mystery. Question: Am I satisfied that I ate at this restaurant? Answer: 1000%. read more
