    Thinly sliced brisket, beef tripe, marinated pork belly
    Fernando P.

    So it was my first time trying some KBBQ and this location was selected by the group so was coming into it brand new. Inside decor definitely passed the vibe check, and it was cozy too which I think compared to other KBBQ places that are crowded I actually enjoyed. The AYCE menu was divided into 3 Categories (S,A,B) with each tier having more options. So we went B which in my opinion if you want the typical cuts and what you expect in KBBQ then that'll do. But you don't care bout the vibe, how's the food? Well I don't think the food quality was bad at all, but it wasn't omg I have to spread the good word to everyone I know to try this place. The cuts in terms of quantity was plenty but some of the quality was hit or miss for me. Some cuts was hard to distinguish between the others in terms of flavor/umami. Now I think a little responsibility falls to the grill master of our table but still. The speed once we placed our orders was fine but it felt well understaffed as it seemed like one waitress was taking care of 5 tables plus cleaning/clearing plate duties. I felt like a bother when I had to flag her down to order our next order since we were kind of waiting for like 10 mins after finishing our rounds. All in all, I think there's a lot of room for improvement for this location and would definitely come back if some of the core issues were addressed. But I think in terms of KBBQ places it really rides middle of the road.

    Dining here was an absolute delight from start to finish, featuring exceptionally flavorful dishes, warm hospitality, and a wonderfully cozy atmosphere." Very korean tasty . The flavors in each dish were perfectly balanced, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh.

    We chose menu A $37.95 per person

    I wanted to go to our go to Korea BBQ by our area but it was swamped. The wait was 35 minutes and my other half didn't want to wait. So we decided instead of waiting we would go to Korea House which the drive wasn't to far. I love the old school places but for sure reason I wasn't as happy about this place. Yes, it is all you can eat but the selection wasn't like our usual place. I was missing my oyster mushrooms and hot pot. Of course service was great but I wasn't feeling the food at the time. I think I will stick with our to go spot when craving Korea BBQ.

    Given the abundant options of KBBQ throughout Houston now, it may seem inconceivable that the city wasn't well equipped for the demand even a decade ago. Korea House gets lots of pioneering credit for being among the first to adopt this format and even after all of these years is still a destination for many carnivores. I realize it's Spring Branch (#1), but I'm pleased to see that Korea House is still as Korean as ever. Most of the staff is able to converse in Korean (#2) and the old school decor is really heightened with the traditional decor pieces and antique figurines. I also really appreciate how group friendly every table is and the variety of multiple private rooms in the dining area. The format for the AYCE is divided by three separate menus: S - $42.95 for adults, $34.95 for children (4-7) A - $37.95 for adults, $29.95 for children (4-7) B - $32.95 for adults, $25.95 for children (4-7) All menus allow for different cuts of bulgogi, pork belly, grilled chicken, and a variety of non-BBQ items such as Korean fried chicken, katsu, Korean hot dogs, chicken tenders, kimchi bulgolgi fries, with a choice of kimbap or Korean fried rice, and a choice of two picks of soybean jiggae, soondubu, or ramyun. Menu A also has additional choices such as marinated beef short rib (kalbi), marinated sirloin, marinated, and beef bulgogi. The most premium menu, S, has ribeye steak, both marinated and unmarinated beef short rib, along with beef tongue, pork jowl, shrimp, spicy squid, more fried chicken like soy garlic and mozzadogs. Personally, I think A is the best of the three options. Kalbi is an essential add-on for the ideal KBBQ experience, but I do love the ribeye options for Menu S. If one goes for the latter, I'd recommend getting at least 4 rounds of ribeye alone to make up the difference. The meat cuts overall are decent and I'd give their beef belly, pork jowl, bulgogi, and shoulder steak as my go-to meats. I would have passed on the kimbap, fish katsu, and most of the seafood. I love the grills and appreciate that the ventilation was fairly solid. I do love that they utilize the call buttons at each table since the service would have been even slower if my group didn't continually press it to have them clear plates, add water, add sauces, or get napkins. I think the key to success here is to take it slow and come ready to eat. There was a moment where my group and I ordered too much too quickly and there was no room left on the table. Thankfully grills were changed out and occasionally the waitresses would help with cutting and cooking the meats. Overall, I enjoyed the experience. While I don't think it's incredible food, I do appreciate the variety of AYCE foods offered, the ambiance / feast-worthy atmosphere and the actual BBQ equipment is definitely on par. There are areas of improvement needed, but it won't stop me from making this a regular stop on my gluttonous rotation. __________ (#1) Houston's KoreaTown. (#2) Not applicable to a lot of Korean spots outside of the neighborhood.

    Is a good AYCE Korean bbq place, they have 3 different menus and each of them has different prices, the more you pay the more meat options you get, but even if you get the cheapest menu the food taste good! Love this place from the inside We went during lunch time so it was cheaper, food was amazing service was okay; but we would still definitely be back!

    I haven't been here in a while, but I don't remember it being this good! Came here after hanging out with some friends and we were definitely starving! First impressions: there's lots of parking and I really like the look of the place and the decorations. It feels very home-y. Service: Servers were great and helped our big party very well! Food was delivered in a fast pace and waters were refilled appropriately. Food: I'm always a big pork belly person, and it was so good here! Actually, everything was good here. The beef belly, pork belly, brisket and the bulgogi are all so good. Definitely will be coming here again and will recommend to others!

    Leftover meats that they claim we didn't finish that they have to charge us extra
    Jerry C.

    Do not go here!!!!!!!!! Here's my story !!! I went there on Monday 3/2/26. I'm not saying we didn't waste any food , I know we did with few pieces of the meat but let's be honest which AYCE you go to that we don't order something we never have before in my case ( beef intestine and tripe ) we place a order of each to try it out and we find out that's not something we like and we didn't finish the rest as you can see in the picture probably like 3-4 pieces of each . Personally I think it's responsible. The server we have was have a bad day or something he's like you have to finish everything we order if not we gonna be charge extra not to say I never seen the sign like that in other ayce place but as long as the waste is reasonable, there won't be any charge like that actually being charged to any of the clients. But idk what this server of the place is thinking saying that we wasted too much that we have to pay extra money . Don't waste your money or time to go here I will definitely put 0 stars if there's a option for it

    I've eaten here multiple times, mostly for business lunches, and each visit has been great. Korea House offers all you can eat Korean BBQ where you grill your own food in the center of the table, and as a somewhat outsider to the whole thing, I've always found Korea House accommodating, clean, and most importantly, tasty. They offer 3 tiers of all you can eat (at least that's my lunch experience) each with a fixed price. Even if you select the cheapest option, you'll leave absolutely stuffed and happy. The portions and sides included are massive. Grab some friends and give it a try.

    I've been here many times it's some of the best food i have ever eaten very good service it's not very loud and you have a good amount of privacy

    Tania M.

    So I've been debating on posting. Service here is good they are responsive and get you settled right away. The bon chon is good and the food is decent for the price. The place is decorated beautifully and makes you feel like you're in another country. The issue was we had visiting critters as we finished our food to our table. Granted with all the wood structures things can happen. But it needs some attention

    Brisket 차돌백이
    Christopher C.

    It's a fine establishment with consistent food for ayce. The chadol (차돌백이) is light and cooks great, the pork belly (삼겹살) is thin and cooks well! The pork bulgogi (돼지 불고기) is a bit heavier, but still holds great flavor and the tonkatsu (돈까스) is standard and filling. I love the service (very sweet) and for ~$36 you really cannot beat it. Another spot in the books for my father and I! Cheers!

    I came here for the first time! I had a hot bowl of bibimpa with vegetarian style! It was good but I can say that they can put more flavors by putting mushroom seasoning or even more of soy sauce or salt. I felt a bit of seasoning less. So my suggestion is that put mushroom seasonings or soy sauce. I enjoyed the variety of side dishes as well! That's the features of Korean restaurant for sure! Toward the end, we also ordered a bowl of cold noodles (nyengmyong? Idk spelling) it was sooooo good! I love the flavors , texture and subtle tartness and all! Because of that my rating bumped up to 5 stars from 4 stars!! Keep up the good work and make vegetarian options more flourish as well! :) Cheers

    Came by for weekday lunch and got their spicy bulgogi lunch special. The bulgogi was flavorful and spicy. They had a good variety of sides too. There's better Korean spots in Houston, but this wasn't bad!

After the three-taco dinner, I honestly struggled to reconcile what was on my tray with its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition. The biggest problem was the one thing a barbecue restaurant needs to get right: the meat. It arrived cold and lacked flavor. The tacos fell apart as I ate them, and nothing about the taste made up for that. I've had considerably better tacos from food trucks. At a place with this reputation, I expected much more. The sides didn't rescue the meal. The cornbread was dry, the mac and cheese was mediocre, and the atmosphere felt lifeless during our visit. The meat should have been the star of the show; instead, it was the biggest letdown. The staff, however, were wonderful--warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. They deserve credit, and the service was easily the best part of the experience. This wasn't an inedible meal. It was an underwhelming one from a restaurant I used to enthusiastically recommend. Two stars reflects this visit, and I hope the kitchen gets back to the standard that made me love this place.

Most places can't do a mac the way i like it, but the cheese stayed moist and creamy and the noodles were tender. the flavor was phenomenal. all of the meats were tender and fall off the bone and juicy. I have no complaints About any bite I took! Other than maybe taking too many bites XD. Would absolutely recommend if your visiting the area or live near by, go get some excellent barbecue.

    Killen's never disappoints…read more Their beef ribs were just short of amazing. Juicy, succulent, tender. For a giant piece of meat on the bone, they worked wonders. You can ask to see the piece of rib before they cut it for you and they will happily oblige (patrons behind you might not be so thrilled with that move, but they'll live). Sides were excellent as were the mashed potatoes with white gravy on the side, green beans that were just tender enough, but also a bit crunchy. Perfect. They were seasoned with pork, so if that's not your thing, you might want to skip it. We also ordered their shareable onion rings, easily enough for three people that were huge, hot, and crispy. Let's get this out of the way, some of their prices are a little up there, but if you're anything like me, and don't frequent BBQ places often, it's a rare but enjoyable treat. Sometimes you have to splurge and live a little. Also, they have their regular sauce on tables, but you now have to ask the cashier for their sublime coffee BBQ sauce. Don't be shy, ask. It's worth it. Oh, pro tip: If you want beef ribs, the 'plate' is actually cheaper and a better deal than 'by the pound', so save a little money and get two sides.

I arrived around 5:35 PM, about 25 minutes before closing, and ordered 1/2 lb of brisket and 1/2 lb of ribs. The brisket was $17, and unfortunately it was extremely greasy and so overcooked that the meat had become mushy. It still had good flavor, but the texture was nothing like the brisket I've normally gotten here. Judging by what I received, it felt like I may have gotten what was left at the end of the day. The ribs were $12, and my "1/2 lb" consisted of two individual ribs. They tasted good, but they weren't nearly as tender as I've had here before. I paid about $29 just for the meat, and for that price I expected much better quality and portioning. I understand that I came close to closing time, but I still paid full price and should receive the same quality of food as any other customer. If the brisket is past its best or there isn't enough left to make a proper order, I'd rather be told that so I can order something else. I'm not writing the place off because they've been good to me many times before. But this particular order was definitely not up to their usual standard, and the pictures speak for themselves.

Visiting from out of town and decided to give this place a try. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. I was not sure what I wanted to try, so Sam, the owner, gave me a sampling of everything; brisket sandwich, spare rib, potato, salad, coleslaw, beans, macaroni and cheese, jambalaya rice, and french fries. Everything tasted better than expected, especially the french fries, as few BBQ restaurants are able to get these just right. I will definitely return tomorrow to try something new. Definitely ordering the macaroni and cheese and potato salad again. Special thanks to Sam, the owner, who definitely took care of me. He knew I was from out of town, but treated me like a long time customer, which I greatly appreciate. Give this place a try... You will not be disappointed!

    I ordered through UberEats. I got the 2 meat dinner comes with two sides. Brisket, smoked chicken,…read moremustard greens and jambalaya rice, served with white bread. The chicken was so tender and sweet but savory. The brisket was good but better with the barbecue sauce. The greens just tasted like onions. I added salt that helped a little. Also wanna note I don't eat just mustard greens alone , they' re usually mixed so that may be the reason why I personally didn't care for them. The jambalaya rice was spicy but seasoned, definitely loved that. I'd have them again just switch out some things. The establishment packed my bag with everything I needed. Very neat and intentional and I appreciate that when dining out through delivery.

    First time trying this restaurant and it was pretty good! I enjoyed the angus beef cuts including…read morethe miso and shoyu marinades. The brisket also had good marbling and was great. The grill was extra smokey which gave the meats a good char and flavor, but can get tiring after eating for awhile. We also tried the sushi and was surprised by the freshness of the fish. Top fish cuts were salmon and red snapper. The yellowtail hamachi was a bit fishy and we did not really enjoy that. Overall, good experience and good wide variety of food.

    Authentic Texas Barbecue. Very good food, and awesomely messy. Got the pulled pork, brisket,…read moresausage, and other meats. All were well seasoned and the sauce was incredible. Sides were ok, rice was incredibly well seasoned but the Mac and cheese was a bit underwhelming. I think the only thing would be the cost; quite pricey for barbecue. Additionally the service was pretty good - friendly staff who were more than willing to help. Very busy in the restaurant - definitely seemed like a staple in the community. Every table had paper towels, and while some of the tables were a little dirty, we were able to find a clean table to eat at.

    I had been craving BBQ for a couple weeks and decided to give the pit room a try. My husband had…read morebeen here before for work and he enjoyed it so I decided to try! The environment is super cool, plenty of seating, a bar, private rooms, a dessert bar. I enjoyed the atmosphere, but the workers spoke Spanish to each other the whole time until it was time to check out, so there wasn't much engagement. Which lead to a mix up of my order that we had to fix. What we are all here for, the FOOD: Chicken: Very juicy, tender, basic chicken, a great portion. I was grossed out by the amount of blood under the skin. (I KNOW it's an animal with blood but I've never had bbq with that amount of blood on the meat) but I'm not penalizing them for it. Def 7/10! Brisket: Super tender, melted in the mouth, great taste. 8/10 Green beans: Not greasy, tender (not mushy or undercooked). I think they may have spilled the seasoning into the batch they main because holy moly, a TON of pepper and salt. I'm heavy handed with my seasonings but that amount didn't seem intentional. I'd never thought I'd say this but the flavor would've been great with less seasoning. 5/10 Mac&cheese: Nothing special but definitely better than most bbq spots. I enjoy the texture and light flavor 7/10 Elote: Yummy but where's the beloved cilantro?! 8/10 Cornbread: Great flavor, not dry, and had jalapeno peppers in it! Super yummy 9/10. My only thing too, they had only 2 bbq sauce options, a bourbon coffee and their house bbq. To me, they were not good at all. I was extremely disappointed in that. Other bbq spots have like 8 different bbq sauces
