    BBQ grill with meat and cheesy corn and mushroom
    Evan C.

    I'm not supposed to be eating fatty pork but this place is sooo good that had to come here. It's really for pork belly BBQ lovers only but for those it is like heaven. You get so many side dishes a Banchan, including spicy bean sprouts, onions, kimchi, also ttokbokki and tofu soup. Plus you get cheesy corn. However, only the basic Banchan, pork, and rice is included in the all you can eat. The pork belly is delish and comes with multiple dipping sauces. Goes well with everything else. Oh, you also get lettuce so you can wrap everything. They give you scissors to easily cut pieces. For the best in all you can eat pork belly Korean BBQ this is the place!

    Looks like Sooda has rebranded into a new restaurant featuring (optional) AYCE pork belly. Can't say there are too many places like this around. Parking is rather limited in the area. There are metered spots. Best to come after 2000, when the parking becomes free. The inside looks a little bit like a nightclub, with the pink/black theme, and funky neon lights. Staff are friendly. They weren't too attentive though. Had to wave them down several times. As of the time of writing, the AYCE pricing is better on weekdays (Monday to Friday). The AYCE comes with unlimited pork belly slices, banchan, mushrooms, and onions. The corn cheese, lettuce, and bean paste stew are limited to 1 order only (additional cost for more orders). 90 minute time limit. The banchan has green onions, regular onions with sauce, pickled turnip, bean sprouts with spicy sauce, and kimchi. Generous portions, decent quality. Goes well with the pork. Corn cheese - nice and gooey, and served in a small iron skillet. This thing disappears quickly though. Bean paste stew - basically a shared bowl of soup. Not sure if there is more than 1 bowl for larger tables, but would hurt to ask. Lettuce - well, it's lettuce. According to the instructions, the pork belly is actually supposed to be wrapped in lettuce with a bit of bean paste smeared on top. It's a bit clunky, but doable. The grills are electric and adjustable, so the heat can be adjusted as needed. They do come by regularly to adjust, but it's not hard to push a button to dial the heat up or down a notch. Buddy and I noticed that the middle of the grill cooks faster than the edges. Something to keep in mind. The staff initially showed us how to cut the slabs of belly into little chunks, but honestly it was way easier to just eat the pigs by the entire slab like a burrito. Honestly, as much as I tried to enjoy the experience, it was mediocre. The provided bowls were too small, so my buddy and I were fumbling trying to assemble the wraps without spilling everywhere. Having plates would've been nice. The bigger problem though was that there's basically only 1 kind of meat. Yes there are 3 types of dipping sauce (salt, tangy, spicy), but at the end of the day it's the same meat again and again. Even with the banchan and stew mixed in, honestly we stopped eating because we got sick of eating just pork belly, not because we were actually stuffed. With that said, nobody left hungry. Honestly I'm not sure what to think. Yes this place is different, but at the same price point, there are other options out there like AYCE hot pot. Maybe try it once and see for yourself.

    Porker face is located at the old Sooda location along Lougheed Hwy. Came by on a Thursday night and there were lots of available tables. It was $33/person for all you can eat pork belly and your time starts the moment that you sit down so make sure your whole party is there. The meal comes with corn cheese, soup and lettuce which you can get refilled for an additional charge. However the banchan, rice, mushrooms and pork belly is all included in the cost. For each refill they provide one slab of pork belly per person which they then cut into smaller chunks to cook on the trip. The pork belly is pretty cooked so you really just finish it off on the grill to heat it up. I thought the pork belly was over done in some pieces and others were fine. I would have like it if they provided more lettuce because it was literally one leaf per person....two would have been slightly more reasonable I'm not sure I would revisit just because the meal ended up being heavy and I like more variety in my meals but it's worth a try if you love pork belly or want to try it just for the experience.

    Had a great time at porker face. We thought it would be busy on a Thursday evening but it was actually empty! We got a table for 8 at 6:30pm easily. Ideally you have your whole party there because they start a pretty strict 1.5 hour timer once you sit down and have meat on the table. It's $32.99 on weekday evenings. There is only one thing - unlimited pork belly! They give you rice, lettuce and soup but those are not refillable. However, the side dishes, pork belly and enoki mushrooms are unlimited. Side dishes were tasty - I particularly liked the bean sprouts, pickled radish and green onion. We got a total of 8 refills of pork belly and lots of side dishes between 8 people so we think we made it worth it.

    Wanted to try this place out and saw it all over so media. Definitely need to make a reservations on the weekend, especially if you have a bigger party. I was pleasantly surprised with the cost, quality of food, and service! Food came out quickly and our server gave us good recommendations for portions sizes. Refills came out quickly, atmosphere was kinda of loud but in a good way where people were happily eating and talking! Would definitely love to come back again with friends!

    5 stars for everything here! The food is delicious and that cheese corn so delish! Service is impeccable as the staff is super attentive. The ambiance is very fun with cute decor and upbeat music. Highly recommend Porker Face.

    Sooooo good !! I love ayce pork belly. The server kept coming by to attend to our meat so we didn't really have to do much. It was great

    Still in soft opening but here is an affordable AYCE Korean BBQ place. It's under $35 for dinner which is awesome. The key is it's all pork belly so if you don't like pork belly then this isn't the place for you! The pork belly and some of the sides are unlimited but you do have a 90 minute limit. The service is awesome too!

    All you can eat pork belly -- come hungry! The servers were quick to replenish the pork belly when asked, and they cut it into pieces for the table. The price is good for all you can eat, but be mindful of all the add ons that can raise your cost.

    Went there on a Saturday night and we had a reservation made 2 days before which was a good call…read morebecause it was pretty full when we got there. 3 of us on the table got their option A (premium beef) which comes with corn cheese, salad, and other sides as well as 2 rice and a choice of soup. We also got prime grade beef short ribs, marinated short ribs, and brisket point. I would say this can easily be shared by 4 people because it's a lot of food! We ate all the meat but had a lot of the soup and rice left. It was $140 for all of that which when split is pretty good! My favourite was their brisket point. Their soup was also veryyy comforting!! My other two friends got their glass noodles and Korean pancakes. The glass noodles were delicious!! Very flavourful. The pancakes I thought were a little too oily. I would definitely come back! The service was fast but I thought it was very strange that they wouldn't provide more than 2 takeout boxes for a table of 5.

    Tried more of their dinner items. The sliced beef in sour soup is super tasty. Wow. Not sure what…read morekind of crack they put in it. Nice peppery kick. Plenty of beef slices and enoki mushroom. I really have to recommend this dish. Also had a pile of their skewers. Taiwanese sausage, chicken gizzard, and 2 flavours of wings. Not the cheapest, but similar in pricing to the competition. Everything got gobbled up. Delicious. Honestly I wish more people knew about this place. I think the only thing stopping them is the rather "bad" (not too visible) location. The 5 star rating for dinner remains.

    Went for their lunch ayce buffet. It used to be 16.88 but now they upped it to 18.88…read more The first time I went there was crab and braised pork belly. The second time there were clams and lamb neck? The things that were the same: tomato egg, dumplings, steamed baos, chineze fried donut, and cold dishes like bean sprouts, smashed cucumbers, tea egg, tofu dessert. They also have hot soy milk for drinks. Their deep fried chinese donut has got to be the best I've ever had in my life. With the price of a pair of fried donut being over $6 these days, I get my fix here. Other things are standard, good but not outstanding. I really like having soy milk to drink instead of water. $18.88 is getting a little steep for a limited choice buffet with not too many meat choices. The crab/clam are a nice addition but if there are days without it, it wouldn't be worth. I would rate the food from this place higher than the similar chinese lunch box style place in richmond, K squared mansion.

We were welcomed at the entrance and I explained we had never been, the host took his time to explain each page of the menu and suggest a few of his favourites. We tried the Daejigalbi Platter, Sooda Fries and the Original Sooda Box. Every member of my family raved about how delicious each bite was, and there was plenty of food for all of us (maybe even too much!) the Sooba Box dish was my favourite... although I have to say the corn cheese was possibly the best I've ever tried!!

I tried their Lunch Special - Jeyook rice set. For this dish, I've had better in other Korean restaurants in Vancouver. The waitress said it would be medium spicy -- it was not spicy. The sauce covered up how shredded up and fatty the pork slices were if you really looked. The flavors were just not there. The side dishes were also pretty bland for me and didn't have my usual favorites - it included shredded carrots, a mushroom-like dish, and kimchi that was not memorable. They offer some other items like Sooda Boxes and hot plates with melted cheese, etc that looks photo-worthy and probably would appeal to larger groups to share. Maybe those taste better.

Every item we ordered was well prepared and true to the HK flavors you'd expect -- nothing overly salty or greasy, just balanced and satisfying. We tried half a BBQ duck and the three-meat combo with rice, and both were excellent. The staff were friendly and courteous, and I especially appreciated how generous they were with sauces -- a small detail that goes a long way. If there's one area for improvement, it would be the food temperature. Nothing came out piping hot, which left me wondering if the dishes had been sitting out for a bit -- or perhaps the restaurant just doesn't see as much volume during off-peak hours. It wasn't a dealbreaker, but hotter plates would elevate the experience. Pricing was very reasonable, especially with their ongoing specials, making it an easy choice for a casual meal that delivers on flavor and value. Despite the quiet setting, Yummy BBQ deserves more attention -- it's a solid spot for classic HK BBQ done right.

I didn't pick the cheapest choice on the menu and instead I ordered the roast duck leg as my dinner. The place is not very large, I guess they target to serve more take out orders. The staff members are welcoming. The vibe is very similar to those in HK. The roasted duck leg is very delicious and juicy. Though it's already close to the end of the business hours but it was still tasty with the plum sauce. Portion is large. Definitely I will try their BbQ pork and chicken in my next visit! I'm really satisfied!
