    The meat quality didn't really blow me away. It just seemed to be very standard. I do like how they cook the meat for you, though. That made the experience a little easier. I do wish they had the standard Korean barbecue sauce. I felt like that was missing and would have made the experience much better. The service overall was good, and the ambiance is what you'd expect out of your classic Korean barbecue restaurant. I just wish the meat quality was a little better considering the price of around $50 per person.

    AYCE - the quality of the meat was surprise great. Esp loved the hanger steak. The kimchijigae was actually really good, I ordered twice. So much better than the soybean soup. Not a lot of sides (non-bbq dishes). But the service was great as they cook for you. Matthew was great!

    A much smaller AYCE Korean bbq spot, but with parking in the back. I like the different options and sides it offers such a japchae, duck, and pork jowl. There are different soups, steam eggs, and sides options as well. I enjoyed the pork jowl, and bulgog the most. As for the steak and duck, they weren't as good as I would hope. Everything pairs well with their radish, kimchi and salad, but I wish they would refill without asking or give larger portions. The service wasn't the most attentive as I constantly have to ask for banchans to be refilled. Also, I didn't think I smelled too bad coming out the restaurant.

    AYCE spot next to HMart (RIP) it's around $43 pp and the portions of meat are HUGE. We ordered a bunch of sides as well and could only manage one round. You get 1.5 hours to order and there is a left over fee. The waiter was super nice and responsive even during the dinner rush. Would recommend coming here with a large group!

    Awesome AYCE Korean BBQ spot! The meat is fresh and high quality, and the service is always great. One of the best parts is that the staff cooks the meat for you so no need to assign someone as the grill master! I love coming here, and the steamed egg is a personal favorite, so soft, fluffy, and comforting (I usually get two for myself). While I usually enjoy Korean soups, I found the tofu and kimchi soups here a bit underwhelming, but honestly, everything else more than makes up for it. Overall, it's a solid go-to for AYCE KBBQ in Queens!

    Beautiful looking lettuce :)

    Overall: Would recommend depending on the time of day. They serve you, so I would recommend coming at a time with less people since there are mixed reviews about service during peak hours, but this time their service was AWESOME (best service I've ever had at a restaurant). Everything 5/5, I would come back. Came here with my partner around 1PM on a Saturday for AYCE KBBQ at $43 per adult. Unlike other KBBQ joints, the servers cook for you here. Sorry, not as many pictures as I had hoped for because I got lost in the eating... lol. Ambience: On the outside, store was inconspicuous but on the inside there was quiet K-pop music, lighting was warm/soft, and there were not many people. Food: Sides and appetizers were unlimited. The julienne pickled radish and carrots were amazing. The GF loves cheese steamed egg but I don't eat dairy. I recommend the addicting fried rice cake. There were some dull lettuce leaves but most were vibrant appearing, everything was clean. For meats, we tried to go down the list for beef cuts but got too before we could try everything. We ordered - Thin cut brisket: My favorite cut especially to start with. Thin so it cooks fast, tender, not too fatty. Not marinated so goes well with salt and pepper. - Hanger steak: Not marinated but simple, classic, and great with salt and pepper. Some pieces were tougher than others. - Finger meat: Not a fan, maybe the tendons in the meat made it tough to chew and hard to eat with the lettuce wrap. - Soy marinated short rib: Good. Light sweet marinade that wasn't overpowering and retained the meaty flavor. - Soy marinated beef bulgogi: Decent. Would say the bulgogi definitely absorbed too much sauce and a little on the saltier side which kind of overpowered the natural flavor of the meat. Service: AMAZING, best service I've ever received at a restaurant. The server clearly took pride in his work. Recommended to us where to sit to not get splashed by oils from the grill. He anticipated all of our needs. He saw I was getting garlic out of my GF's plate and brought me a separate massive plate of garlic (I am a glutton). Gave us refills of appetizers and lettuce before we even ran out. Cooked everything for us and was attentive throughout the whole experience.

    The food quality and for the price of all you can eat (~$40 pp) is very good! We ordered brisket, short rib, and bulgogi. I will say that the short rib was our favorite and I didn't care for the bulgogi. Our side dishes were also really good-- steamed egg, spicy rice cakes tots. I would not recommend the spicy mixed noodles (bibimbuksu) though. The server was a bit abrupt, but it was fine. Overall, a great experience!

    We went around 3 PM and it wasn't too packed, so we got seated immediately. After being situated, we ordered a couple appetizers and they came out quick. Same goes with the meats, they were really quick with everything. I like how they grill it for you. Our server was amazing. He refilled our sauces, got more lettuce, and water when he noticed we were running low. He even got us cream for burns when he noticed that we burned ourselves accidentally. I wish they had more side dishes, but I'm happy with what they had cause they were delicious. Overall, fantastic service and enjoyed the food!

    Christopher G.

    Their food and service really pleased us! The menu kept refreshing with exciting new options that delighted our taste buds, making the meal even more enjoyable. Plus, there was plenty of parking available, which is such a big help, especially when you're in a rush.

    I really enjoyed this place, the customer service in this place is phenomenal. We didn't make reservations but we were seated super quick. The place is spacious and great for an intimate dinner or a group of people. The tables are nicely set up and they look very clean. Each table is already set up with all the condiments and spices needed for your meal as well as jars of water with cups . This is an all you can eat place, however, they time your order right so that you can continuously eat without wasting any food which I thought was great! They have one menu at each table and it's super easy to navigate and order. The food came out faster than expected and it was delish! Depending what you order, some meat is seasoned and some is not but all so good! We had a couple of different servers whom kept checking up on us, making sure we had all we needed, kudos for that! The place is a little pricey but it's an all you can eat so you can easily make up for the cost by eating as much as your heart desires and MORE! we walked out of there super stuffed and happy, I will deff be coming back and I highly recommend!

    Arrived on a Friday afternoon at 1:00pm and there was nobody so we were seated right away. AYCE lunch for$24.99. The staff also do all the grilling. Kpop music videos were being played on the TV screens so a plus for kpop fans lol Tried the thin cut brisket, thin cut pork belly, pork belly, soy marinated bulgogi, beef belly, and pork rib. All meats were tender and great. The marination was a bit too heavy for my friend and I. Also, upon reading the previous reviews regarding portions, I had asked them to give us half the portion size so that we can get various types of meat which was good because we didn't want to over order and waste. Liked the three options of sauces we got which were mixed salt, samjang, and a miso sauce? The ban chan was a bit lacking though with just kimchi, pickled radish, pickled fish cake with onions and pepper. Wish I had the stomach to try other things!

    I betrayed 02 bbq and came here on a friends request. Good place. Didn't like the music. Stay was attentive and they actually helped us with the Korean barbecue. Most places don't help you cutting and cook, but they did which was very nice. Menu was really good, large portions. What makes this place unique as they have a very nice all you can eat appetizers and appetizers are pretty awesome. Also the brown sauce , must try. No complaints all good definitely come here . A lot of parking it's next to a very nice café. Superrr

    Marinated beef short ribs.
    Hanna B.

    Service was fast and the employees there were polite. The restaurant was playing good upbeat music. The sides were pretty good. We had eggs, cold noodles, and bbq boneless chicken. The marinated short ribs had good flavor but the meat was tough and chewy. The brisket was good but there was so many fatty pieces. I also had the thin sliced pork belly and that was ok but we also got very full and had to stop eating. All in all, it was a good ayce experience with good service.

    Hey guys is it halal ? Because it does pop up as a halal restaurant here . Just wanna let you guys know.

    I doubt it. I never saw any designation there saying that they were.

    Is this place good for a larger group up people?

    Yes, but call the restaurant to make sure they can accommodate you because it does get busy

    Is this place halal, if not could you tell Yelp to remove you from the halal list, it's misleading?

    Hi Raisa Thanks for letting us know that we pop up on yelp's halal list. After checking our settings, it shows our halal highlight has not been turned off. Could you let us know where you found halal option on our page? Thank you

    Now that a lot of the mandates are lifted, do we still need vaccination cards to eat here? Are they required if we sit outside?

    For any outside dining, vaccination cards were not required. For Indoor each place can still choose to check but most places do not require now that they canceled the Key to NYC mandates. *** Right now Meat Me is temp closed due to a gas line issue.… 

    Hi, my partner and I will have both doses by the time we are visiting, but it won't have been the full 14 days by then. Can we still eat here?

    Yes

    Are reservations required?

    No. They accept walk-ins like most other places. On prime days and times you may have to wait for a table as things are getting busier.… 

    Are you open?

    As I answer you today in May 2021, yes, Meat Me BBQ is open for both indoor and outdoor dining. Hope that helps.

    Do they grill the meat for you in the indoor seating?

    There is currently no indoor dining as they use all the indoor cooking space to grill the meat for the outdoor diners.

    Are all of the meats cooked on one station, or are there separate stations for different kinds of meat?

    We have two grill stations inside because different cuts of meat require different heat settings and surface material. The open flame grill and the cast iron lid (traditional material used to cook Korean BBQ) is switched out and cleaned with each…

    Tried this place for the first time, it was a Saturday night. We arrived around 5:30 table of 2 and…read morethere were 2 other large parties. It got busy, almost full house around 6:30ish. There's 2 waitresses and one busser, but I felt only one of the waitress was pulling the weight, while the other (maybe she's the owner?) mostly chatted with one of the table customers. I felt bad for our waitress she was so busy with fulfilling takeouts + dine ins and the dishes require a lot of servicing table side. She couldn't catch 1 second of break :( Food wise, we got their 2 person combo of spicy pork gamja tang and spicy rice cake which came with the steamed egg. Everything was so good, egg was extra fluffy, rice cake was delicious and the meat came right off the bones. They take a good variety of side dishes. My partner wasn't a fan of the gamja tang but due to feeling it's a hassle to eat meat with bones, so those who fee sim may agree. We also asked for the fried rice after we finished the gamja tang, for 2 servings I think it was $4.75 or something. I really enjoyed it but I guess I like scorched rice, also something my partner doesn't enjoy so those we feel sim just note. Environment feels very old school, well worn. Feels cozy. It can get loud very quickly on a Saturday night as this place seems to be a hit for large parties. Since the wait staff is short handed, expect a bit of a wait for things. Don't come if you're in a rush.

    I'm pretty sure I discovered this spot long before Anthony Bourdain did! It was featured in Parts…read moreUnknown Season 9, Episode 4 (Queens), where he dined here with chefs Josh Smookler and Cosme Aguilar. Geo Si Gi is highly known for their signature gamjatang (spicy pork bone soup). Ordered the Gamjatang & Grilled Mackerel Set - $52.95 (for 2) The gamjatang is perfectly spiced - bold and warming without overwhelming heat (and trust me, my spice tolerance is low!). Instead of the usual red kimchi, they load it with long strips of green napa cabbage, cut right before your eyes before serving. Some bean sprouts, watercress on top, with tender potatoes, chewy rice cakes, and massive pork bones that fall right off - so meaty and flavorful. Served with a side of sweet mustard sauce. Pure comfort on a cold day. The grilled mackerel was enormous and incredibly plump - way bigger than expected! As an oily fish, it's rich and satisfying, but we barely made it through a third. If you're a mackerel fan like me, it's a must-order. . Banchan were simple and homey: nothing flashy, just solid classics. Bonus: it comes with fluffy steamed egg (jjim) that rounds out the meal perfectly. I can eat an entire bowl of rice with just the steamed egg . This set was massive for two - we left with about 1/4 of the soup and 2/3 of the fish! Pro tip: Save some broth and ask them to make fried rice with it at the end. Game-changer. . Highly recommend for hearty, soul-warming Korean food in Flushing!

The pork was indeed very good. My only comment was that the waitress seemed very stressed and frazzled. She was stressing about cooking the food and some of it was getting overcooked but also our banchan didn't get refilled because of it. Their English is also not great so there were times when we had a tough time communicating. I would say overall the food was good and we had a good time. It was also very reasonably priced. After tips, it was only $64 per person. We'll definitely come again.
