    I love Korean BBQ and couldn't wait to try. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked into a cute restaurant that was busy. I was greeted and sat. I was served by pretty much the whole staff as they all went around checking on everyone. I ordered the Soju and red wine for drinks. For food I had the: Vegetable gyoza Steamed egg Miso soup White rice Spicy chicken Marinated chicken Kalbi marinated steak Kalbi Marinated tender steak The food was really good and seasoned well! I really love the chicken and steak and the steamed egg! I had a good experience all in all!

    The service was so comfortable compared to other AYCE spots because they do not count down your time like a guillotine. At other places I've had stress and anxiety eating because they would come by and tell me how many minutes I had left vigorously, but at O2kbbq, the vibe is very comfortable along with GREAT QUALITY meats and Korean comfort food in my opinion! Sides are all delicious too!

    Food and service is great. Ambiance was peaceful. The experience is worth the money.

    O2 K-BBQ in Guttenberg, NJ. All you can eat Korean BBQ! Plenty of delicious fresh meat options-I love the marinated beef/pork. Everything is grilled to perfection right at your table. All of the banchan is delicious and make sure to check out their cocktails! @o2kbbq is great for a large group dinner and remember that parking is at the Galaxy Mall-parking will be validated!

    It is an absolutely wonderful place! I had a great experience with my late dinner. The place is open till late. Food is very good! Everything was delicious! But separately I would like to bring out our waiter! The name of this guy is Sky, and he just made my day! The best waiter in my life! Funny, helpful, easygoing, everything! I'm absolutely impressed with the service! Thank you so much for this experience! Also, I think the prices are very good, nice atmosphere and vibe, free parking)

    Let the K-BBQ begin!   :)

    I enjoyed my lunch experience yesterday at O2 BBQ. It's an All-You-Can Eat restaurant. I chose Chicken for my meat to be cooked, Tofu Soup and I ordered noodles. The food was fantastic, the service was very attentive and nice. The staff who served me explained the menu to me in great detail and made sure that I was very happy with my meal. And the atmosphere is very cozy and I felt very welcomed. So if you're in the area, then I highly recommend this place for a great dining experience! :)

    Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 10/10 Amazing place! The food is pretty good for an ayce spot. They had a vast menu of proteins to choose from and theyre also vegetarian friendly. Theres two separate pricing one for meat eaters and the other for the vegetarians (which is rare at most places). Service was amazing! All the workers were super attentive always stopping by every now and then to make sure we were okay and to help cook our meats. The grills are very big allowing you to cook more meats faster and not have to wait long. was surprised to see they also offered gopchang as a ayce item! we were very pleased with our first visit here and will be looking forward to our next visit! shout out to the owner! thank you for the little gift!

    @foxfoodreview "The #1 K-BBQ spot in NJ" You want to talk about an AWESOME Korean BBQ experience? I would rate O2 a 9.1/10!! The quality of meats is way better than other local k bbq spots I have tried. My favorite was that tender bulgogi and the rich flavor of the marinated steak. Don't sleep on the crispiness of the spicy pork belly ! Beyond the food, the staff were friendly and helped ease us into the korean bbq experience. There is also fun things there, like a photobooth, arcade games, and party music for birthdays (which we took shots on each time haha). This is definitely the go to spot in Jersey! https://www.instagram.com/foxfoodreview?igsh=MXYyZXM5cWg4dGpwag%3D%3D&utm_source=qr

    Nice kbbq spot with decent lighting and pretty attentive servers. The quality of the meat was pretty good, however the quality of sides was underwhelming - especially the steamed egg, which should be fluffy and puffy, was instead looking sad and deflated. My friend who went a different time said their egg was the same way, so probably not a one time issue. If you want just meats and don't care about sides then it's probably better than places like cast iron pot. At the beginning, the servers were attentive, but towards the end of our meal it was definitely lacking a bit. Parking can also be tricky but if you follow their website instructions a they will validate your ticket in a garage and you'll be okay

    They didn't serve liquor the first few weeks after opening so I think you could BEFORE but now they have liquor and beer on the menu. So no.

We tried the 314 and the Sweet Cheeks pizzas, and we really wish we could have tried more. The ingredients on both were so fresh and flavorful. I especially loved the flavor of the hot honey and the sliced pork on the Sweet Cheeks. Both pizzas were not overly greasy nor cheesy. The toppings are really the main star of the show. We had to try their hand-made pasta too, and we could really tell from the texture of the pasta how fresh it was. We got the rigatoni, and just like the pizzas, the ingredients do all the heavy lifting carrying all the flavors. This was a little on the smaller side, but it's great because it means you have to try other things on the menu!

The food was good and drinks were too. The space and workers were also very accommodating. Clean bathrooms and everything. My place of employment wanted to book somewhere to have our holiday gathering after work for December 2025. I visited U Bar in person in late October to inquire about such an event for approximately 70 people. The host informed me to get in touch with the owner due to such a large amount of people and just wanted to ensure that it could be accommodated as needed. I had no problem with that and she gave me the business card, I bought some grilled chicken pasta Alfredo and headed home. As soon as I got home I spoke to the owner Eddy both via text and call. We spoke about what accommodations I would need, he said no problem. I reiterated to him that it was something that would be very informal and he told me that since it was on Friday, he would honor the "college Friday" deal that they have for college students for myself and colleagues as well. As you can imagine I was all for it, he booked it for December 19th at 4pm. He told me that he could open earlier for us, but just for the downstairs section which was perfectly fine. No hassle. After the call, I got an automated text stating that my reservation for "15" people had been booked and confirmed. I called him back immediately and told him that the reservation was for 70 problem as discussed, not 15. He told me not to worry that it'll be fixed in the system eventually but that I didn't have to worry about the glitch. I said okay fine. Keep in mind, this was late October this all transpired. Fast forward to December 11th 2025, I got an automated text stating that my reservation had been updated to 70 people. Not sure why it took a month and a half to "update" the number of people but I didn't care as long as the agreement we had had been met the day of. Then the VERY NEXT DAY on 12/12, I got an automated text stating that my reservation for 12/19 had been canceled altogether. Feeling understandably confused and annoying, I called U Bar at least 6 times to speak to someone to clear up what the confusion about the reservation is because I'm only a week out from the date of the event at this point. NO ONE picked up the phone but they were definitely open at the time. Remembering that I had Eddy's number from speaking to him prior, I called him to no answer but then texted him to explain my grievance. He then proceeded to respond back and say that the restaurant, managers as well as HIMSELF had been calling me prior to because I had two reservations booked. Now, keep in mind, I didn't actually make the reservation on my end, HE, the OWNER, made the reservation based on our conversation. I explained how disappointed I was that the reservation would be cancelled without notice. He informed me that he would speak to the manager about the situation. He hasn't gotten back to me. I then spoke to my best friend who had the idea of calling the restaurant and sneaking a merged call where I could speak to them. He did in fact get in contact with someone at U Bar (I heard it myself) but then the line disconnected. He called back immediately and no one picked up. No one there ever called me about having two reservations. I tend not to even believe that I had two reservations because ... 1. I never booked any reservation there on MY end. 2. Why didn't I receive an automated message about the "other" reservation that was allegedly booked as I had gotten about the one for the event? 3. The owner alleged that I had a reservation booked for both 12/12 (the day my original reservation was cancelled) AND 12/19 the actual day of the event. But even if I did have two reservations, what difference would that make? Am I not allowed to reserve a spot on multiple days? What would one reservation have to do with the other? None of it makes any sense. They will never see a DIME from me and what's worse is that I was ACTUALLY looking forward to my colleagues and I really visiting this place and getting the same care that I initially felt back in August. Now, I pray for the day this place becomes a parking lot. Unbelievably unprofessional.

Food arrived within 8-10 mins of placing our order, so yeah, really quick! Our initial server/waiter wasn't that attentive but their crew members were definitely more alert.
