We came here for late lunch after we went to Apple Hill and we are so hungry and I remember that there's a new Oz branch here in Folsom. It's not too busy when we came the front desk and servers are very friendly. The ambiance here is really nice and the interior looks very fancy. We order our usual favorites spicy chadol, steak, calamari parmessan mussel, jukumi and pork hangjungsal. And all of those are so so good especially the steak meat is so tender. The spicy chadol is really good here and everything is so flavorful especially their side dishes thumbs up. We always eat at OZ but this branch is way different the ambiance and the food it's different from the other 2 branches that we've been. I think we are going to change our branch, instead of going to Rancho we'll be here in Folsom more often. Good job Folsom branch. We will definitely come back. read more

Parmesan mussels are my favorite here at Oz...when they don't have pea crabs inside of them. The first mussel I had was really crunchy so I spit it out. When I inspected the other mussels, I found tiny crabs in them. They are safe to eat, but gross to me and should have been removed before being served. It ruined my meal that had just started. Our waitress was nice and apologetic. The manager offered us $5 off our $85 tab for the inconvenience. Not returning to the Folsom location. read more

Oz Korean BBQ - Folsom - Pea crabs inside parmesan mussels - Korean Near Me - Folsom, California

We decided to go to this location this time. I will say it is not nearly as packed as the Elk Grove or Sacramento location. No waiting. Half the place was empty. The food was still good as always. I think there may have been a couple missing items on the menu compared to the Sacramento location. They had gummy worms on tap which is a favorite beer of mine. So that was nice. It is much brighter than the other locations. It is newer and less crowded as I mentioned. If you like Korean BBQ come check it out. Carlos was our server and he made sure our large group was never in need. He was great. read more

5/5 for me! This location is new and the ventilation is great, unlike the other two Oz Korean BBQ where you go home smelling like the restaurant, although sometimes this is not necessarily a bad thing... I do want to know where the giant picture was taken in a section of their restaurant behind the bar. It is huge and contains nightlife in a city. If the manager replies back to this review with that information, I'd be grateful. I asked the servers but they had no idea. When you walk in, you are immediately greeted by the hosts. I do like to check in through yelp ahead of time. Feel free to wait in the bar area and grab a drink. I ordered a Scooby Snack while I waited and loved it. Once we were seated we were able to place our order quickly and get our food in a timely manner. I really enjoyed the meats, the ramen, potstickers and toasted green beans. I was hoping to see one of our favorite servers, Jianna. She takes great care of her customers. My husband and I loved her at the Bradshaw location and would love to see her in Folsom one of these days. Definitely check out the Oz Korean BBQ Folsom location. It is awesome! read more

Oh my gosh, so much food! Everything I tried was pretty yummy, of course I had my favorites. This is the first time I've been to this place and will definitely come back. But I need to be more hungry when I come back. read more

Oz is a new Korean AYCE bbq place in Palladio. It's clean and well decorated. The place is pretty busy but they throttle the number of guests so the service remains quick. Our server was great, attentive and friendly. You can keep ordering for 2 hours, and the food is delivered quickly. The cooking takes a long time because the grill is (just being real) not very hot. Overall, the side dishes, pork and chicken are great. I enjoyed the tofu soup but it may be a bit spicy. The fried chicken was really good. The beef (especially the ribeye) had a weird texture and flavor. The Kalbi was decent but no better than the freezer isle at Trader Joe's. Most of the meats are relatively low grade and underseasoned. I guess if you want a lot of food, it's decent. read more

Walking into OZ Korean BBQ instantly brought back memories of my time in Korea. The smell of the grills, the energy in the room, and the spread of food hitting the table gave that authentic Korean BBQ vibe right away. We were greeted quickly when we walked in and seated promptly. Jena took great care of us at the start, welcoming us and giving us a quick rundown of how everything works. It made the whole experience feel easy and relaxed, especially for anyone who might be new to Korean BBQ. Once the food started coming out, it was clear this place knows how to deliver flavor. The meats were delicious and full of flavor, and the banchan (all those amazing Korean side dishes) just kept coming. Everything paired perfectly with the grill and honestly transported me right back to Korea for a moment. That's always a good sign when a place can trigger that kind of nostalgia. The only hiccup during our visit was with the orders coming out. A few times when food arrived, it wasn't exactly what we had ordered. It seemed like there may have been a little disconnect between our waitress and the kitchen. Nothing that ruined the night, but it did cause a bit of confusion at the table. What really stood out though was the professionalism of the team. We stopped what looked like a manager to help us understand some of the items that had arrived at our table. He stepped in immediately, was incredibly friendly, and took the time to explain everything. That level of service goes a long way. The restaurant itself was clean and welcoming, including the restrooms which were spotless. Parking nearby was easy to find and close to the entrance, which is always a bonus in a busy dining area. Even with the small ordering mix-up, the food and hospitality really stood out. If you're craving Korean BBQ in the Folsom area, this spot definitely delivers a great experience. I'll gladly come back and fire up the grill again. read more

Oz Korean BBQ - Folsom - Korean Near Me - Folsom, California

This is barely makes 4 stars. The restaurant is very clean, service was good, plenty of seating and parking is so convenient with a large parking garage next door. The food was good but I'm giving them some grace because they are new but wanted to note that some proteins seemed to be missing sauces/ingredients. I ordered the garlic shrimp but it honestly was plain shrimp with no flavor. Ordered the Parmesan muscles but again it was just plain with no Parmesan. Overall decent experience. read more

I've been to Oz on Bradshaw quite a few times, so I wanted to try their Folsom location. . I got in line via yelp, and when I got to the restaurant I was checked in by Leila.. It was a short wait. I like the look of the the restaurant. It's large, very bright, and they have K-pop playing on screens on the wall. Oz on Bradshaw is a bit darker on the inside, but not in a negative way at all. My server was Miikayla,, and like everyone else, she was very friendly and helpful. The all you can eat for lunch was only $26.99, which was very reasonable. The banchan (sides) we're very good. I especially liked the noodles, and the radish. The sauce on the broccoli was also very savory and delicious. I chose two appetizers. The. Yangyum potstickers, which came in a sweet gochujang sauce. I asked, and she said it was not very spicy. It wasn't. It had a nice sweet heat that I just noticed. I also went for my old standby, the cheese, corn, which was also good. I wanted to try the steamed egg, but unlike other KBBQ places, Oz only offers it on the dinner menu. She offered it to me, but the dinner menu was an extra $10, not worth it for one item. For my first round of proteins, I ordered chadol, (brisket) the Hawaiian galbi. , and the sesame beef. The food came via the same robot they use at Bradshaw. The problem was, I specifically asked for smaller portions, so I could try more, and they brought me full-size portions. The brisket tasted good, but it was just a little bit chewy. It was also still a little bit frozen when it came to the table All of the other proteins, were tender and delicious. I loved the sauce on the marinated meats. I also had some mushrooms and pineapple, and they cooked very well on the grill. They were delicious. For my second round of proteins, I had the sweet pork and the garlic chicken. Again, everything was tender and delicious, and I loved the marinade on both of the meats. This time around, they did bring me a smaller portion as I asked. For dessert, I had the sesame balls, which had a red paste in the middle, and the taiyaki, which have a sweet filling. Both were very very good. I left stuffed and Happy. As I mentioned before, the price was very reasonable, and they do offer a military/veterans discount. I will keep coming to Oz. Thank you very much. read more

Oz Korean BBQ in Folsom is hands down one of my favorite spots! The quality of the meat is incredible -- tender, flavorful, and the marinades are absolutely amazing. Every bite is packed with bold, savory flavor that tastes even better fresh off the grill at your table. The banchan is always fresh and plentiful- especially their kimchi cucumbers-YUM!, and their new kimchi fried rice is truly to die for -- perfectly balanced with just the right kick and so comforting. I also have to shout out the bartender -- his cocktails are impeccable. Each drink is crafted perfectly and pairs so well with the richness of the BBQ. It really elevates the whole experience. The staff is attentive and quick to swap out grills, making sure everything cooks just right. Whether you're going with friends or family, it's such a fun, interactive spot with amazing food and drinks. Highly recommend if you're craving Korean BBQ done right! read more

12/13/25 Overall just shy of a true 4 stars. Oz was a nice welcome to Folsom and so much closer to home for us! We were excited to come try the new Oz at Palladio with a couple of friends. Oz took over the Fire and Flame Brazilian restaurant. It's an ayce (all you can eat) set up. There are different meats you can add to the standard at an added cost. We did a yelp waitlist for reservations which was easy! Entirely party has to be present to be seated. We were seated a few minutes after arrival. Banchan side dishes shortly followed by water. Our server Carlos was good. Tables were a bit small to accommodate incoming and outgoing plates. To start you can pick 3 apps (app options are lacking) or dessert to start and 3 proteins. Banchans appeared to be prefilled, we felt bad having to keep asking for banchan fills. We wanted to try the tofu soup but could only order 1 at a time and they are kinda set up as single servings. We ordered bone in Galbi and ribeye and they were a hit. The spicy bulgogi looks like chopped meat (not great). Lettuce is offered at an added price. Dessert options were lacking with only 2 options. The sesame balls filled with red bean was better than the taiyaki filled with sweet potato filling. It was a tad too oily for us. They have sake and other drink options. IMO, If you drive out a bit towards Sac, there are many more Korean options that is worth it for us over Oz. read more

Finally made it in after hearing this location opened in Palladio, and I was really excited since Oz is already one of my favorite Korean BBQ spots. Check in through the Yelp app was super convenient, and from the moment we walked in, the staff were friendly and welcoming. The restaurant itself is beautiful and definitely feels like an upgrade compared to the Elk Grove and Bradshaw locations. The high ceilings and strong ventilation were noticeable in a good way. No lingering barbecue smoke at all, which made the experience much more comfortable! We were helped by our server, Michael, who was very friendly despite clearly being busy. We did the AYCE adult option ($36.99), and there were plenty of protein and appetizer choices. I really loved that they added taiyaki for dessert, it was the perfect sweet bite to cleanse the palate after all the savory food. Overall, the food selection and quality were solid and exactly what I expect from Oz. Service wise, there were a few hiccups. Since Michael was covering many tables, refills took a while, and my drink refill took close to 20 minutes. I appreciated that he eventually brought out a jug of carbonated water so I could refill myself, but it would've been more helpful earlier in the meal. There were also some issues with the soda machine. My husband's Pepsi and later Starry weren't very carbonated. Michael did check on it and even offered to comp the drinks, which we appreciated, but we declined. While the service could've been more attentive, Michael remained kind and professional throughout. I'm hopeful things will smooth out as they settle in, and I'd still come back and recommend this spot! read more

I went here last night with the family while visiting Folsom. The restaurant was very clean. I loved the ambiance. The service was wonderful! Sidnie our waitress was absolutely fantastic. She was very attentive and helped guide us on what to order. All the food was incredible. The steamed egg was so good with all that BBQ. We'll definitely be back next time we come back to Folsom in a few months. read more

The service was extremely fast and our server (can't remember her name) was excellent!! Highly recommend.

after having been to the sacramento location, we were so excited to have one closer to us open in folsom! FOOD everything was so fresh, from the meat to the veggies. huge fans of the garlic shrimp, bulgogi, and hawaiian galbi.. but you really can't go wrong with anything; it's all delicious. all the sides are fabulous, and great additions to the yummy AYCE. SERVICE when we walked in, we were immediately greeted by a very nice hostess. Nathan was our server and was attentive throughout our entire dining experience! all the staff were very kind. AMBIANCE super clean inside. bright lighting just really opens up the space. huge TVs with music videos playing all throughout! PARKING adjacent parking structure nearby. since the restaurant is located at an outdoor mall, it's nice to shop around while you wait or walk back to your car! MISC not really a place i'd recommend for vegetarians as there weren't many vegetarian options. GREAT for families or big parties. overall, can't wait to come back! i really hope Oz does well in this location because this is exactly what the Palladio has been missing! read more

This was my first time having Korean BBQ Quality: Good. Some meats were better than others. Not the highest quality but okay. Service: Very good; the waiter was very kind, patient, aware and present with us. He also replaced the grill consistently whenever it charred too much. Ambiance: The atmosphere was fine, though I think they should change up their music to other than kpop. I was disappointed that there were no ventilation hoods for the smoke when grilling. Value for $$: Dinner was $40 a person and I honestly think the food could've passed for $30 or so. Nothing there was that deluxe for the price. Additionally, lettuce is charged for extra. Overall experience: Good. I enjoyed having their kbbq with my friends! read more

Went to the Folsom Oz on the Saturday before Father's Day. This is a new Oz location at the Palladio. The restaurant is huge, clean, and much roomier than the Rancho Cordova location. The food is similar to the other location however, the service at the Folsom site is much improved. I also like roomier and newer location. I recommend this location. read more

The ambiance was 5+ stars. What a beautiful job Oz did in building out this large space! Very modern and chic'. Service was good including the Robot! . Food was abundant, and a nice experience for our group. Price seemed high to me $$$ but, I guess everything is. Everyone should try it once ~ except maybe true vegetarians because it would not be their Jam! read more

We have been going to the other location but visited Folsom location for the first time. The place nice and servers are efficient. We were escorted to our table within minutes even though it was Friday evening. Our food came quickly. The quality was as usual, excellent. A lot of side dishes were served. Even though it's mentioned spicy, it's not at all bad. All in all, it was a good experience. read more

I might be able to eat this weekly for the rest of my life! We know this is a new location so we were excited to check it out as we have been to other Oz locations. We came for lunch on a Friday for 4 people. We did an early check in reservation via Yelp. When we arrived it didn't seem overly busy yet we waited an additional 35 minutes to be seated.. BUT we understand with new locations there may be some hiccups. We got the all you can eat lunch for $26.99 which I found to be a fair price! We ordered and everything came out relatively fast. They also stopped by several times to ensure we didn't want additional items. Everything was delicious!!! There was even a robot that would come by and deliver some food! It luckily has a good amount of seating as I'm assuming this place will get VERY busy!!! The new location is simply decorated but was very clean. Can't wait to come back! read more

I was craving for Korean BBQ, and got to have it on my recent trip to Sac. Service was top-tier -- super attentive without hovering. Our grill was changed before it even had a chance to char, and empty banchan plates disappeared within seconds. The star of the show is obviously the meat: the marinated galbi had that perfect sweet-savory punch, and the pork belly? Crispy, fatty heaven. Everything came out fast -- orders hit the table in under 5 minutes. One quick warning, though: if you're craving apps like steamed egg, order them early. We made the mistake of putting in our app order halfway through the meal, and it took nearly 25 minutes to arrive -- long after we'd finished our second round of meats. The kitchen seems to prioritize BBQ platters (which is fair), but don't expect those starters to land quickly, especially if it's busy. It's solid place. I would visit again if happen to be around. read more

Overall we had a great experience. We came on a Saturday night around 515 pm and there was already a 20 minute wait. My wife and I sat at the bar and had a cocktail and red wine. The restaurant is pretty expansive inside with modern casual decor. The servers were all very courteous. The AYCE menu was simple to understand. After ordering the meats and vegetables came out really quick. It's a bit of a learning having to cook the meal yourself but I was getting the hang of it. Everything was well seasoned and tasted very good. read more

Friendly service. Went on a weekday and there weren't too many people at that time so the server was able to check on us frequently. I chose the all you can eat option. Meat choices were plentiful and all were good. There was simply no more room to try it all but I plan to go back. The side dishes were just fine. Nothing unique if you've been to many KBBQ restaurants. I wish the broccoli side was just a little more cooked, but that's a minor issue and personal preference. Restaurant is large and they use robots to bring out some of the food which is a nice touch and something kids may enjoy. Glad Folsom finally has a Korean BBQ restaurant. It's been long overdue. read more

We have been going to their original location in Rancho Cordova for over a decade. This new location in Folsom is by far their best! Prompt friendly service, top quality meats and side dishes and love the new look with high ceilings, lots of room and efficient vents keeping the smoke and traditional smells of a Korean BBQ at bay! Highly recommend this location over the others! We'll worth the drive or stop on your way to or return from Tahoe! read more

Still maintaining my mission of eating at every Korean BBQ in the area, I went to the newly opened Oz location in Folsom. It's at the Palladio, an upscale strip mall. There weren't a lot of people there, and the wait to our table was not long at all. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and weren't overly strict on the time limit or the leftovers. The food was good. Plenty of knickknacks. I really enjoyed the Calamari steaks. However, our grill went out or something in the middle of our meal. Except for that, a pretty good experience. read more

Most of their protein selections were good. I like the bulgogi, royal galbi and the garlic shrimp the most. Tried their baby octopus but I wonder if you could substitute the sauce with something else. Didn't really like the sauce on it. Desserts are so-so, sesame balls are very tiny and ice cream mochi was just okay. Appetizers are good though, the fried green beans and potstickers were flavorful. Good service, the waitress came by every so often when our stove was looking a little empty asking if we wanted any more proteins while their robot came to the table to deliver. Well at least the service here is better than the one in Elk Grove. read more

Peter K, yes thanks for responding, we were seated at A5 and A6, A6 was the table that was having fuel issues, the tables attendant tried many times to get the burner going, which looked like there was water in the area of the burner, I don't know if that is standard for these types of burners. He did try to get it operating. In the end the cap on the burner was set correctly which finally resolved the issue. read more

So far, so great! Let's start by saying that when you leave this place, it will be memorable....and not for the lingering KBBQ smell in your hair and clothes. It's because of the great food, awesome staff, great new location and some new KBBQ wizardry that has the grills venting downward into the grill. This system works so well, that you wont leaving smelling like KBBQ. That is awesome and my family and I will take the trip to this location just for that reason alone. We came during their soft opening and was able to make a reservation for my party of seven people on opening Saturday evening. We did have a short wait while they setup our table, but that wasn't a big deal considering there were over twenty people outside waiting to be called for their tables. The food is basically familiar if you've been to their other locations. What's nice is the very organized an well placed booths and tables. Each table has a great view of one of many 100" TVs on the walls. We were able to watch the World Series that night. Being a soft opening, you can't really ask for a perfect dining experience, but my experience was pretty close. Sure their fryer was working overtime and waiting for fried items like Sesame Balls or Taiyaki was longer than usual, but we didn't mind while watching the ballgame. I'm sure the fryer situation will be resolved if it hasn't already been addressed. Parking could be a challenge as the lot behind the restaurant isn't that big. Just be patient. Your meal will be worth it. Thanks, OZ!!! We'll be back soon.... read more

Food was great, cool environment and great service. Would definitely return back! The serving robot is cool.

Went there around 6:20 with a friend for dinner and everything went so smoothly. It wasn't packed at all and the service was so good and fast. Our server was Yang(I believe that it's his name I don't remember well) was so nice and friendly. All the sides were delicious and the meat quality is always good. Will be back again read more

Oz Korean BBQ - Folsom - Korean Near Me - Folsom, California

Long time Oz fanatic here! So excited about their THIRD location, well-deserved indeed! This one is bigger and brighter than ever. They did such a great job with the interior to match the grand location in the Palladio, giving it a different vibe than the other two Oz locations, but still keeping their signature touches like the waiting area bar and large party tables. The closest parking option is in the East Bidwell parking structure. I tried to join the Yelp waitlist in advance but it wouldn't allow me due to no wait, but we still had to wait about 15 minutes to be seated, likely just to wait for a server to be ready for a table. We had a nice window half-booth seat away from most other tables so it wasn't too chaotic or loud near us. Love the gigantic TVs to watch K-pop music videos! The food quality is still top notch here, same as the delicious food you can get at the other locations! Since the last time I was at Oz, they've added on an optional upgrade for A5 Wagyu at $24.99/2 oz. This is an additional price to the regular dinner price of $36.99. The menus are easy to read and process is simple - order up to 3 appetizers/small plates and 3 proteins at a time. The servers will gauge what size orders to get based on your party size, but you can request a small/medium/large order of meat at any time. We usually do this when only one person wants a specific meat, or towards the end of our meal when we just want a small portion. Don't forget to check the back side of the menu for sauces, condiments, and side dishes that you can order again and again at any time! Overall our server was great but he did seem pretty busy! A few suggestions from our visit.. -Saw a few managers and/or hosts walking around, they would make eye contact with me but didn't stop even though we had been waiting on our server. Definitely doesn't hurt to stop by and check on tables if they need anything! -Food came out fast, thanks to their food runners and the robot! The wait time was really just to re-order meats or get refills on sides. Maybe add more servers per section based on busier times, once it's been open long enough to gauge this. This was just off my observation as a table on the opposite side of the restaurant from the kitchen. -If servers and food runners could grab empty plates any time they come by the table, it would be helpful! We don't mind the empty plates at all, but it's really just for the table space. I hated putting them on the next table over but we had no more room. Overall a continued 5+ stars to Oz! I rave about them to everyone I know and will continue to rave about their newly expanded radius in Sacramento. This isn't even a closer location to me but it's nice to have another option! It's still the top Korean bbq spot to me in the area and everyone should give it a shot. read more

5/5 for Folsom. Was looking forward to the opening. My fave: Corn cheese Chadol Pork Belly Sesame Beef Steam Eggs Sesame Balls Whoever our waiter was changing our grill everytime it started charring. I was like wow what is this service? I liked how we can order sauces on the side and rice paper wraps, you see it in the QR code. However, only complaint is the pink pickle radish slices are super thick. Waitlist on yep! Parking is always hard in Palladio on the weekends, so give yourself extra time. read more

Meats were well seasoned. Multiple sides provided. Staff very friendly. Dining area was well lit with plenty of seating space

May I say this is the only Korean BBQ restaurant that is well lighted, you can actually see how cook your food. This was our first time in this location, great service even if they seemed very shirt staff, some customers left and didn't bother waiting for their dessert, I mean more for us, Right!. The staff were really doing their very best to catch up the demand of the customers which was very impressive, such great terms work even the supervisor was busting tables while bringing food to the table, I mean this gentlemen walked and worked on the nearby tables so much even the other staff started bringing their own customers order. The ambiance was great, restroom was clean, the floors are not slippery which is a huge plus, you can tell they were short staff and truly hoped that they are all well compensated for the hard work that they do each and every day. Thank you to the front, kitchen staff, servers and individuals that clean the tables. No hard work left unnoticed. The food was amazing, great flavor, fresh side dishes, not once was received cold appetizers, they even changed our grill almost on time, the waiter/s were so attentive we didn't really feel that they are short staff unless we started looking around like our server was covering a lot of tables and not enough staff that turns the table around for the next customers. We will definitely be coming back for more. read more
