Dinner with a decent party size was such a breeze here! They managed our reservation and party size perfectly. The menu options across kbbq and additional dishes was a solid set for dinner -- like having various courses in a casual banquet. Super happy with the Beef Set A, Budae Jeongol, cheese steamed egg, kimchi scallion pancake, and of course the banchan. read more

Came here for the premium AYCE (priced at $100pp pre-tax/tip). You can also do à la carte. Overall, had a great time. Service was friendly/fast and you can have the option of cooking yourself of having them cook for you. For meats we got the Ribeye, Boneless rib, Galbi, Bulgogi and a few other beef items that all hit. I was definitely feeling the meat sweats by the end. I personally enjoyed the ribeye and boneless rib the most, but I really don't think you can go wrong with any beef choice. It's clear they are definitely using very quality cuts of beef across the board. They also have pork options, but we opted to not do that since we felt it was less value, but just another meat to consider. The space is quite big. There aren't any fans to soak up all the smoke so you'll still leave smelling a little bit like meat, but definitely not as bad as some other places I've been to. I do wish they had somewhere I could put my coat. Would've been great if they had under-seat storage to throw my coat and bag into so it didn't smell by the end. Overall though, I'd definitely recommend checking this place out if you're craving kbbq. Definitely pricier, but all the ingredients are quality. I'm salivating as I write this about how good those beef cuts were. read more

Walked in at 5:50 PM on a Saturday and there was no wait for the two of us. My boyfriend and I ordered the marinated short ribs (galbi) and bibimbap with sliced beef from the à la carte menu. It ended up being the perfect amount of food for us - we didn't want leftovers because we were heading to a show. The galbi was amazing! I also loved the sauces - the chili paste was sooo good. Great banchan, too. Finally, our server was really friendly. We visited the famed Agassi Gopchang next door a few weeks later, and I thought Love was better. Will definitely be back. read more

This was my second time coming in, first time dining alone. I wanted to make a reservation but was running late so I just walked in and was seated promptly. The place was busy but not super packed. My waiter came quickly, I ordered the bulgogi kimchi fries and the à la carte bulgogi. The fries came out quickly and the special sauce was amazing along side the cheese sauce. A definite must. The bulgogi was cooked to perfection, and I enjoyed all the sides including my favorite the kimchi. I didn't get to enjoy the salad so I took it home with the rest of my bulgogi. And my waiter even gave me some extra kimchi! Service was great and quick, place was busy but not super loud. Prices were pretty good too, when I came the first time I came with my friend and we did the all you can eat which was about $100 per person. That was an enjoyable experience too. I'll definitely be back! read more

Great service and a classic Korean bbq. Affordable. Large menu so something for everyone.

They have a sampler of many meats for 3-4 people. Inside is open and hopping read more

The first time I came here years ago I vowed to be back. I have been to Korean BBQS all around and none of them match this places vibe. I love that the workers here get to know you, everyone is nice, friendly and willing to help you have a good time always. In the middle of the city you never expect kindness like I've received here. This time around I ordered different things and as usual everything tasted amazing. This time we had the server cook the food for us which turned out to be quicker and more effective so I do recommend that if you're not too excited to cook yourself. There are many bbq places in the city but the food here is quality and never leaves me with a stomach ache like I've gotten at other places. The drinks here are also fantastic and in general the location is the best! Thank you for an amazing time and I will 100% be back. read more

Love Korean BBQ is situated in a prime location in Koreatown and my family and I were craving KBBQ. They allowed walk ins which was great! They have an option for AYCE ($100 for 90 min) or a la carte, and we opted for a la carte. We got the beef set A which included an option for boneless rib, tenderloin, or Denver steak. We opted for the boneless rib. The set also comes with ribeye, brisket, skirt steak, rib finger and bulgogi! It also comes with an option of sides and we opted for the cheese steamed egg. This set was perfect for my family which was a group of 5 ladies! We also got the corn cheese which everyone really liked! We got the regular banchans and rice included for the meal so this was perfect way to pair everything. This restaurant also has a DJ playing music but I didn't think it was too bad and we could still hear and talk to each other. The service was great - they help cook the meat in front of you which I always appreciate! Highly recommend this spot! read more

Overall: Love KBBQ is a pretty solid Korean BBQ spot. They have good service and fairly generous portion sizes. Food: I got the bimbimbap and it was fairly large. It came in a large stone pot and the rice on the bottom was nice and crispy. Added the gochujang and I was all set. Service: The service here is pretty fast. We came at a not too busy time. Ambiance: This is a casual sit-down place. Lots of seating. read more

Came to this restaurant after recommendation from a Korean friend who works in the industry. Our table was of six people so we were seated downstairs, a pretty place with dim lights and lots of big tables. Service was fast and they explained everything well, but there was some difficulty with communication about the drinks. Twice we asked for a bottle of sparking water and we had to ask multiple times, as if we were ignored (lol); a friend ordered a drink and was brought a glass of wine by mistake. No problem, they changed it. But both that drinks and my old fashioned tasted like straight up gasoline. Probably having some wine would have been better. But they had these drinks on the menu so I thought it was weird that their execution was so poor. Anyways, the meats were marbled and amazing and tasty, cooked perfectly, you can see the quality of it. So I'm not too mad... but drinks were $17 each would come back but order Coca Cola instead. read more

Perfect for a spontaneous night out with friends. Big portions, good food, and casual but friendly service. As expected at 9:30pm, our party of three didn't need to wait for a table. The music is banging and the place is open until 1 for anyone who wants late night kbbq and soju shots. For our party of three, an order of bulgogi kimchi fries, spicy octopus, and marinated kalbi was the perfect amount of food in addition to the free banchan. Everything worked tasted great in combination. The kimchi fries and marinated kalbi were delicious while the octopus was a little chewier than we would've liked. Flavor-wise, the octopus tasted great and was sautéed with vegetables and udon making it a filling dish. Split amongst three people, this was a decently priced and filling dinner that prepared us for the long night we had ahead. No complaints. read more

I went for Valentine's Day and had the best meal of my life. The meat was so tender and flavorful, and the servers cooked and cut it for us. Our server, Phil, was extremely attentive and kind. We ordered a Valentine's Day special; we got to try several meats with sides, a bottle of wine, and a big slice of cheesecake. It was great. I can't wait to go back one day. read more

LOVE Korean BBQ is an informal KBBQ joint that offers AYCE and a la carte. For a restaurant in NYC, there are a decent number of seats and tables. The servers were fairly attentive to my table and the food came out quick. My friends and I came in during the weekday and got their lunch special which was a la carte. I ordered the Pork Belly and Cheese Steam Egg. Since I got their lunch special "meat," the Pork Belly was already grilled for me. It was really good! The cut was thick and juicy. I just dipped the pork belly in salt and ate it with rice and it was tasted great. I do think that the order of Pork Belly was too much for me to finish on my own, but I have a small stomach. The Cheese Steam Egg was not to my taste. It had truffle oil of sorts on the top and I think there was too much cheese. The egg was also cooked thoroughly and it tasted more like an omelette as opposed to a steamed egg at KBBQ. The sides were good and I especially liked their kimchi as it was spicy. Overall, I think this is a nice place for KBBQ, but the prices were a bit high than what I am used to and what I like. read more

I came here with a decently large group (7) with a reservation so we got seated in a private area upstairs. The service was very quick and efficient, but when it comes to kbbq, it does feel like they're rushing you often. This is heavily emphasized when they are cooking the meats for you - which from what I understand, is a tactic to get customers out faster since they're able to cook all the meats faster which nudges customers to eat more too. I'm sure that we had the option to request that we cook ourselves, but I believe the default is when they cook for you. Some people might think its better service when they cook for you, but I'd argue that it takes away from the experience. Now to the actual food, it was good. I was impressed by the steamed eggs the most of out the banchans. I do wish that they provided more banchans since we had a relatively large group. The meats were also good! Pork belly was my favorite for sure. The cuts were good quality, but surprisingly the flavor was kind of lacking. So you're probably wondering, why is this three stars? Simply because I don't think it was worth the price. I'm benchmarking against all kbbq I've had before which I can totally see isn't fair and should only be compared against other Manhattan locations. But I just didn't feel like my life changed after pay $117 out the door for the food and drinks of one person. My group did a la carte so maybe I should have done AYCE instead to make it feel like it was worth the experience. I could also see how this was a skill issue on my part. This was on the higher end of kbbq I've had, but also on the higher end of price I've seen too. read more

Food, ambiance, and service is good. We ordered one of the meat combos and two extra orders of meat and found that it was a lot for 4 people. The spicy cold noodles are good too, but the noodles were a bit overcooked. This place is good for (large) groups. read more

Steamed truffle egg!!!! Hands down the best item. Don't miss out on it. Meats were fresh and delicious. We did the all you can eat 100 per person and time limit of 90 minutes. I think it's a great deal for larger groups. We were a total of 9 people so it worked out very well for us. Service was fast and they kept up with refilling the sides. Make reservations just incase but overall a great experience. read more

So I've been eating a lot of Korean BBQ lately, and unfortunately this has been the least impressive. The meat is definitely quality cuts, but the flavor was a bit on the burnt side. I'm not saying they burned the meat, but the char flavor was stronger than the taste of the meat... even after seasoning it or using sauce. However, the kalbi was a standout dish, which not suffer from the same problem. It's definitely a fun location and I do appreciate how they incorporated some of the design elements left behind from the Bonchon that used to occupy the space. But, unfortunately right now, this is my least favorite Korean BBQ. read more

I had a decent experience, unfortunately this one gets 3 stars for how expensive it is. Considering I've been to multiple AYCE Korean bbq places with good quality food, I couldn't believe the pricing for how much they're charging as this is NOT AYCE. As we were a table of 8 and weren't interested in spending over $100 a person, we ordered the Love Special Combo (feeds 4-5 people) for the entire group. It came with 6 meats and 3 sides and some rice. I had eaten a large lunch so I wasn't starving when I had the food and it was a decent portion for how much they gave considering we managed to split everything. I personally don't mind splurging for food every once in a while, but at the same time this didn't seem worth it. I'd prefer to go elsewhere next time. I will say the lychee martini was good and my friends ordered lychee mojitos and raved about those. read more

We were looking for a non-AYCE korean BBQ spot with reasonable prices and this seemed to check our boxes. They have sets, which helps with the hassle of ordering. Good quality meat, and I loved the steamed egg! It was pretty empty when we went for lunch on a weekend, so we had very attentive service. They basically cooked everything for us, which is always a huge plus. Still a little pricey, but I think it's worth it for an indulgent korean BBQ experience here and there. read more

My friend and I got the marinated kalbi and marinated bulgogi here, and the kalbi was definitely better than the bulgogi. The kalbi had multiple cuts made within the meat, allowing the marinade to deeply penetrate the meat. The bulgogi, on the other hand, was bland and dry (1 star off), almost as if it was never marinated. When the staff cooked it for us, she only cooked it until no longer pink; there was no char as she did with the kalbi. I don't think it was the difference in the meat cuts, but rather how the bulgogi was prepared. We also ordered a seafood pancake, which was nice and crispy. The banchans included a good variety of kimchi, pickled radish, sesame spinach, fish cake, and potato salad. So do I "love" Love Korean BBQ? "Like as a friend" is probably more accurate... read more

One of the best kbbq ive been to! Our group got the special beef combo and corn cheese on the side and it was a huge amount of food.

The meat were all high quality and the banchan and soups were delicious (potato salad was my fave). Ive heard the food can take a while to come out but i felt like we didnt have to wait long at all!

Came with four friends and we all purchased the $100 all you can eat deal. Little did we know we weren't told that for that deal, we would have to cook our own food! We were used to other Korean bbq places that cooked the meats for us so once the meats we chose came, we literally sat there for ten minutes hoping our waiter will notice we were ready. We also observed other waiters were tending to other patrons and cooking for them, all except for us. Even our original waiter seemed irritated that we asked for help so I decided to ask the hostess what the procedure was. For $100, you would expect they would at least prep the meat for us. It was such a bummer that the first couple of meats we had burned because we weren't guided that we had to use the sitting pork fat to oil our grill. Finally, another waiter saw we were struggling and finally helped us out. Shoutout to that waiter coz if it wasn't for him, our whole dinner would have been ruined. They also are not very diligent in replacing our banchon sides and would let our plates pile up, creating a mess on our table. Food was amazing and would love to go back just for the spicy ddeobokki but for the service and paying that much amount, we wont ever come back. read more

My friend and I went here on a Sunday evening and were glad to get a table! Ambience was really nice and the food selection is great. Portions were good and my friend and I honestly got full over the plentiful banchan (free refills, be sure to ask) and the seafood tteokbokki. There was a slight miscommunication as my friend and I can't handle dairy well and although clarified no dairy, the tteokbokki came with mozzarella cheese. However we alerted the server right away and they apologized profusely and took it off the bill which was very unexpected but very appreciated. The bibimbap with kalbi was so good that I needed to take it home and appreciate it a second time haha. Very cute place with great Korean food and nice vibes! read more

This Korean bbq spot is a great choice to eat at with friends if you're feeling kbbq and a fun time out! It's definitely a bit loud/has a clubby vibe (they have a DJ), but it's a fun place especially if you're pregaming or drinking! The meat quality is good, there are definitely better spots for pure quality but the fun atmosphere I think is their main selling point. I thought their brisket was good, and the steamed egg side dish was particularly tasty! Their soups (soondubu) was a nice way to end the meal as well. I also like how their serve dipping sauce options and wasabi (a bit diff and fun!) for the different cuts of meat. Service is good and speedy. read more

We were a group of 11 for a friends birthday, and I was not expecting to spend more than at least 60 dollars max after the split because we didn't go for the AYCE pricing which starts at $100 dollars. I grew up in LA and there are plenty of ACYE KBBQ places so I am not new to AYCE. The food was average for an AYCE KBBQ. Service and ambiance was average for something that is typical KBBQ. So going back the meat was extremely overpriced considering we were a group of 11 with a bill ending up to be 120 dollars each person which was a total of $1320! All I literally had was two bowl of rice and few ounces of meat........there's not much AYCE in the city but if you have to go, I would recommend going to GEN instead. You get the same quality with a little than half the price here! The only difference is they give presentation so you eat with your eyes. read more
