I really wished their grills were bigger, and some of their meat was too fatty for me, but overall, not a bad experience this time around. Solid 3.5 for the food. What really bumped my rating to a 4 was the impeccable service. I did not expect our server to be so attentive. Never had to ask for another round of meat. Refilled our banchan and water without asking. Memorized every specific thing we wanted. It really made a difference so I just had to shout out the waitress for her hard work. 9292 i will be back and let's see if we can change this rating to a 5 star!

Lots of options and one of the better Korean BBQs in the area…read more Came here with friends and made sure I was hungry. Inside there is plenty of seating and you shouldn't need to get reservations. The food is prepped well, although the small cooking area makes it hard to do more than 1-2 meats at a time.

If you make reservation directly through their website in advance, you dont have to wait for a table at all.

We went on weekdays and it was not crazy busy so the waiter paid more attention to our table and cooked the meats to perfecto.

Returned to Kogiya after many years and it was still pretty good but not exactly as I remember. I…read moredo love that they have way more options now.

While the place was nice looking and relatively clean, with only two people on staff (at least visible to us), nobody was clearing the used tables. Customers had long gone, but their dirty (used) dishes sat on the tables like they belonged there or as if clearing tables was the responsibility of the customers and nobody told the customers! It was actually kind of strange. In all fairness, there was robust take-out traffic!

The meat-based soup brought our spirits back after a tough training session for me and my friend. We both got galbitang. It was so good. I also recommend the fried dumplings. The decor is pretty simple. There's a few private tables away from the main arrangement of tables. There are about 5 parking spots right outside. If you cannot get a spot, you'll have to drive past this building to a bigger parking lot by the other shops and walk back here. Not a big deal. Takeaway: the portion is giant. If you don't eat a lot, share one. Soup is 5/5 flavorful AF.

The place was very busy, which was good to see in these times. My daughters and I had the pull pork sandwiches, SG chicken salad, and some pork ribs. We had cornbread of course and sides were Mac & cheese, collard greens, pork & beans, and Cole slaw. We drinks and also had banana pudding to go. Everything was delicious the pulled pork was great and the girls added their favorite sauces. The ribs had the best smoke rings and were fall off the bone tender. They didn't need anything extra to help them. The chicken in the salad was moist and easy to cut. The salad was well balanced and delicious. The only thing I wish was on my salad was a boiled egg but that is personal preference. All the sides including the cornbread was flavorful and hit the spot with seasoning. Now it wasn't homemade but very good and worth the money for restaurant walk-in quality. The place even busy was also very clean and staff was working hard, very friendly and serviced us as soon as we walked in. The person running the from even asked for help at another register once three people were in line. Service being quality and as important as the quality of the food. A++ and 10 with two snaps in a circle. Go and enjoy.

I love me some BBQ & I love GAR group restaurants (Great American Restaurants for you non-locals…read morelol), but this one was a bit of a disappointment, unfortunately. DEETS: This is a counter-service restaurant where you place your order with a cashier, and someone brings your food to your table when it's ready. SERVICE: We went for lunch on a Sunday afternoon, and it was not very busy at all, with maybe three tables occupied. There were several staff members behind the counter, but no one was paying attention to anything other than themselves or their phones, and they all had their backs to the entrance, oblivious. We waited & waited for someone to turn around, notice us, greet us, and be served. As for seating, we had only the option to sit at a table because all the open booths were dirty. The restrooms were not much better. After our food came out, they must have finally seen the mess because a couple of the crew members, including the chef, started cleaning up the tables. Great to finally see the place get cleaned, but the dining room should never have been in the condition it was in to begin with, especially with it so empty and the staff just standing around, oblivious, as if they had nothing to do... *sigh* & insert a big eyeroll! FOOD: Not surprisingly, the food was average because "you get what you give" and they obvi didn't give a.... We got a pulled pork and a prime brisket with coleslaw, and they were both a bit on the dry side and lacking flavor; nothing at all like the amazing pulled pork at their sister restaurants. The table had a cute wooden box holding a selection of sauces, but sadly, they all tasted pretty much the same. Surprise! lol As always, peeps, support your local small biz, and yes, I would possibly give them a second chance because I do love GAR concepts, but if I do go back, it won't be back anytime soon, or I may not go back at all and stick with my faves of their concepts that I love and know they work, i.e., Patsy's, Silverado, & Sweetwater. 5/31/26

It's especially comforting when you miss home and your loved ones. The only downside was the wait time for our order.

Mahalo for bringing a taste of Hawaii to the East Coast!

That being said, I do really like that L&L makes their food fresh. I had the masubi both times that I was here. I also had their bbq short rib bowl. That wasn't bad, but the thing is, it just took forever for the food to come out. Don't come here if you're in the crunch to get somewhere, because they do take their time. However, you will get something that is really straight out of the kitchen and fresh.

It's located in a strip shopping center, so parking is super easy and accessible, and the restaurant itself is very easy to find. Walking in, the space is extremely clean, well-lit, and nicely decorated. Now let's talk about the real highlight: the variety. They have dinner plates, bowl options, and à la carte items. I went with one of my favorites, the lechon. They were out of the roasted version, but the staff recommended the fried pork instead, and it did not disappoint. I came in around 7:30, and they close at 8, so I was trying to be mindful and not hold them up. But the woman at the counter was incredibly kind and told me not to rush at all--"you're already inside, take your time." That level of hospitality really stood out. She even took the time to walk me through the menu, which I appreciated, even though I'm already familiar with Filipino food. The food itself? Amazing. The lechon was perfectly crispy, flavorful, and cooked just right. The portion size was generous, and it came with two Lumpia that were hot, fresh, and delicious. It also included a soda, which made it feel like a complete, satisfying meal. Overall, this place is a 10/10. Great food, great portions, and even better customer service. I'd highly recommend stopping by.
