    Affordable price great selection and quick service. I especially liked their ramen and many appetizer options which is included in the price.

    A very happy place to eat - what I call Korean kute.
    Christopher D.

    I enjoyed the meal. The meats and side dishes are tasty. If you leave hungry, you're wrong. Server was friendly and responsive. Ambiance is modern and Korean kute.

    Wow. What a find. The perfect combination of food and atmosphere. A colleague of mine recommended that I try Ombu Grill because I love Korean food. I was pleasantly surprised to see so many wonderful options including kimchi jjigae. I haven't had it in years. Ordering was as simple as choosing a few menu items that we both wanted to try. It's one price for lunch and a second for dinner. I did notice that many of the dinner options are not available on the lunch menu, but there was still plenty to try. I'll definitely be back again to do a little more menu exploring.

    One of the best (if not the best) all you can eat restaurants in Utah! Not only is the meat and food delicious, the experience itself is a lot of fun! I discovered this place with my wife, and I was so impressed I took my mom, and then my wife and I took my siblings. You won't regret coming here! I think dinner is like $21.99 and it's well worth it because everything on menu is included except drinks. You get high quality meat and it's fun to cook at your table. Customer service is great here, they let you eat at your own pace, consistently change out your pan for a clean one, and they let you stay as long as you please. We've never been rushed or felt rushed even at busy times. SUGGESTIONS AND TIPS: Don't skip the Ombu beef or Ombu Bulgogi, 2 of my favorites! And for appetizers, the fried dumplings are amazing! Just get everything though that looks good to you and ask for 1/2 orders, then at the end you can order more of what you love

    The food here was great! Lots to choose from, very kind servers, and a fun feel throughout the restaurant. Our favorite meat was the brisket! I could eat that for days lots of fun new things to choose from. You won't want to miss this place!

    It's incredibly rare for me to revisit a restaurant that I gave a three star or lower review to. It's even more rare for me to update a review and increase it to five stars... BUT wow! This place has changed and really improved since I was last here. My wife and kids begged me to go back and I resisted for weeks. They had been here with friends and said things had gotten substantially better. "Yeah, right," I said. Well they were right! Our waitress was just delightful and had a wonderful attitude and service ethic. The meat quality was significantly better than before and frankly better than other Korean bbq places in town. All said, nice job turning things around! I'll definitely be back!

    There are 50 menu items to try and we ate as much as we could! For appetizers, you've got to try the fried shrimp and fried spicy chicken wings. Our favorite meats were the marinated pork belly, premium steak, beef short ribs, the beef bibimbap, and, the general manager's favorite (and now ours too), the bacon enoki mushroom! We are in love with their mango shake and oreo shake too!! SO GOOD YOU GUYS. The service we received was top notch and the food was great quality for a wonderful price. Get your buns over there ASAP!

    Food was good! We ordered an assortment of different meats and some seafood. Some were better than others tho. Overall it was great, went on a Sunday night and the service was good, but I can see where it can be chaotic on Fridays and Saturdays.

    I genuinely don't know how this place has such good reviews. This was our first and only visit…read morehere. My husband ordered take out from in the store. 1. The ribs were smothered in their raspberry bbq sauce which is just not good. Shame because the ribs were tender and cooked well. 2. The brisket. Who taught this person carving tonight how to cut brisket??!?! As someone who lived in central Texas for almost 6 years, the way this meat was cut was offensive. We got a a pound of brisket and they were cut into GIANT chunks almost an inch thick. Brisket is supposed to be SLICED and it's not supposed to be covered in sauce either. Thankfully the classic sauce is actually good but it ruins the bark!! The bark lost its peppery bite being covered in sauce. The point of brisket is it doesn't need sauce if it's done right. The chunks were so thick it made it chewy. Maybe if sliced thinner it would've been better. 3. The potato salad tasted like it was made with dole whip cream it was terribly sweet. The Mac and cheese had no flavor to it at all, and the beans were alright. 4. The sausage was flavorful and juicy. We finished that. I feel so bad for the people of Utah that think this is good bbq. It is not. I don't expect Texas bbq outside of Texas but this was just sad and not worth the $80 we spent. And what's worse is we are still hungry because the ribs were inedible and the brisket was so chewy. And, please please please go over meat carving with whoever was cutting the brisket this evening (4/7).

The lighting and seating feel eclectic without being uncomfortable--casual, inviting, and easy to settle into. Our waitress, Avery, was excellent. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to walk us through the menu, which made ordering easy. We shared a large order of fries between the three of us, and they were more than enough. The fry sauce stood out immediately--definitely not the standard Utah variety--and genuinely excellent. On Avery's recommendation, I ordered the Cowboy in LA, and I'm very glad I did. The flavors were well-balanced and bold, and it was one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. My son and his friend both ordered the Stoneman burger and agreed it was really good as well. Overall, this was a standout experience. I'd recommend Backdoor BRGR without hesitation--easily the best burger I've had in years.

It felt a little odd walking through the back @ first, as we got a little peek into the kitchen. It didn't seem like we should have been back there, but once we got to the host area, we were assured that entering through the back is completely fine. As we sat there, we noticed many people doing the same thing. The place is western theme. Lots of fun pictures on the walls, random lighting and chairs, I personally loved the vibe. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful with suggestions on the menu. We felt right at home, great hospitality here. I wanted to try a burger that sounded really out of the ordinary, so I got the Grumpy Claire. It has apples on it, a savory caramel sauce, it just sounded insane, and I had to try it out. I also got an order of onion rings. The burger was cooked to perfection, had great flavor and was more delicious than I imagined. My husband got the Poco Bueno. I tried a bite, I did not like it. The reason I did not order it was because that sounded like a burger I'd find at any regular burger joint. The problem I had with the burger was the seasonings used. It tasted like a very strong taco seasoning was added to the patty. I do not like taco seasoning at all, so this was a No from me. My husband got an order of fries with his burger, which were very good! &Their fry sauce is amazing! The staff makes you feel like part of the family & check in on you consistently throughout your visit. The part that stood out the most was that not only was our waitress checking in on us, the other waitstaff would come by and ask how we were doing as well. The owner came over to chat with us too. She came up, introduced herself, asked how our meal was, and we talked with her for several minutes to follow. I appreciated that experience. I highly recommend trying Backdoor BRGR if you haven't yet! The pricing was fair, the staff is amazing, the owner is a sweetheart, and the food is incredible.
