    I have been to other PZK spots, so I had to check this one out. It's tucked in a little neighborhood strip mall with super tight parking, but the food made it worth it. We got there right at opening, and even though the A/C was struggling and they were short-staffed, our server noticed I was sweating and brought us a personal fan. That little move won me over. Every cut of meat was fire.., the banchan was legit, and once the extra server showed up everything ran smooth. My only wish is that steamed egg came with the meal.

    Beware: Complimentary items for Yelp / Google reviews. I visited PZK for my birthday since it was close for all of my friend group and had high reviews. Little did I know I probably should've scoped it out first... for starters, there's complimentary items offered for reviews. PZK is in a small plaza, so parking may be difficult during busier hours. I highly recommend ridesharing if possible. When we arrived, we were seated promptly and began our AYCE ventures. We had multiple servings of brisket and beef belly amongst other dishes like their kimchi fried rice, dumplings, and short rib. In short, service was quick in the beginning and immediately slowed afterwards. The meats were all "okay" with the vegetable dumplings leaving more to be desired. The sides weren't too tasty, but the kimchi fried rice was good. The corned cheese was thankfully tasty, but the one that ticked most of us off was the $4 steamed egg! Most AYCE KBBQ spots offer at least 1 or 2 per group complimentary.

    Amazing quality

    My new favorite AYCE Korean bbq in ktown! The quality is unmatched with the more affordable price and I loved every dish we ordered. My table ordered the premium and they offered Galbi (marinated short ribs) and filet minon which were our favorites. This business has a variety of sides such as ramen, steamed egg, and more. I also appreciated they didn't keep the music too loud like a lot of other bbq establishments. I could drink with my friends and chat without screaming over all the noise. The vibe is really relaxed and they have tv in the background. Service was on point and attentive. Parking is FREE which is rare to find in ktown! I highly recommend!

    fresh meat with my fave kimch fried rice!!

    The meat was incredibly fresh, and the kimchi fried rice was the highlight of the meal! Tough loss for Korea today, but the atmosphere here was incredible! The place was packed with Mexican fans who are huge fans of Korean BBQ. Great food and a fun, friendly crowd to watch the game with.

    Wait staff were on top of everything you wanted or needed. They were also very friendly. Ordered Option "A" all you can eat, as I wasn't that hungry. The banchan included soybean sprouts, macaroni salad, radish slices, noodles (plain japchae), and thinly sliced marinated fish cake. A large bowl of Korean salad and rice paper was also included. Beef brisket, shrimp, and marinated beef (bulgolgi) were first ordered. The brisket was very thinly sliced and of good quality. The shrimp were served with heads attached and worth ordering. The bulgogi wasn't as sweet as others I've tasted. It was still tasty and all was eaten! We ordered the steamed egg for an additional $4. Fluffiest and best steamed egg I've had in a long time. If I were more hungry, I would have ordered a second one! Surprisingly, there was just enough room to order the thinly sliced pork belly and mochi ice cream! Yum! How can you go wrong with crispy bacon?! Note: the mochi cream is an additional $4. Definitely planning on returning with a bunch of friends and a bigger appetite. !

    What a hidden gem, all you can eat Korean bbq with delicious meats for under $35! I loved the kimchi fried rice and the service was speedy! I'll be back

    No gatekeeping for this hidden gem, no fuss, and delicious kbbq spot! I usually stick to the same 3 meats when I eat AYCE kbbq so Option A was truly a bang for your buck at $21.99. The quality of the meats were overall good. I enjoyed the variety of banchan and felt like they had the popular ones that I cared for like fish cake, mac salad, and pickled carrots and radish amongst many other dishes. Service was great and the meat portions were kinda big for a party of 2. The best part about this place is free parking because the restaurant is located in a plaza. I came on a Saturday night and there was plenty of space. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a good value ayce kbbq meal. I will definitely be coming back!

    With so many Korean BBQ options in the area, this was a lucky find and I'm so glad we chose this spot over another that was not too far from here. No street parking necessary, they have a private parking lot (no charge). Service was courteous and attentive. Great cuts of meat. Cleanliness as well as side options will always be the deal breakers for me when it comes to Korean BBQ. PZK BBQ hit all those marks. The floors weren't oily, dining area was spacious with plenty of leg room, vents worked well, and there are plenty of side options (you might just have to ask for them), and staff are kind and hospitable. Wear your stretchy pants, you'll eat well here. I bookmarked this spot just so I don't confuse them with any others in the area cuz all the ones in tiny plazas like this one do look similar from the outside. In this plaza, you don't have to pay for parking. Enjoy!

    A new Kbbq spot in DTLA that has easy parking, no wait, and is only $21.99? No way. I'm surprised this spot hasn't gotten more popular yet. My boyfriend and I have gone twice and both times we wished they had more customers coming in! I don't think they've blown up on social media like they should've yet. I forgot to take a picture of their updated menu, but the Combo A which has your standard brisket, beef belly, thick pork belly, bulgogi + shrimp, KIMCHI FRIED RICE, soybean soup etc. is $21.99. Combo B is $29.99 and adds in pork jowl, short ribs, spicy ramen and a few other things. Combo C has all of A and B but includes filet mignon, NY steak, beef tongue, and other more expensive cuts of meat. This is $34.99. These prices are SO rare nowadays!! Side note their kimchi fried rice is bomb haha. Honestly, this is my new favorite quick Kbbq spot where I don't have to deal with ktown crowds and parking AND I can get a good meal out of it. Good variety of banchan as well! They have a decent sized parking lot that's free. The other businesses in the plaza are small mom&pop shops and only two of them are open at night, so it's very ample parking. Also, the owners and workers are sweet! I hope they do well. Highly recommend! We'll be back :)

Luckily, my younger brother turned me on to Bludso's recently and we just finished a family lunch there. Since they only serve their sandwiches on weekdays, we opted for Fried Okra, "2 Meats 2 Sides"(chicken and brisket), two sandwich buns. At the suggestion of our server, Beto, we added an extra quarter pound of sliced brisket. Beto really knows what he's doing... and because of him it was a perfectly satisfying amount of food for the three of us. He definitely went above and beyond. We're looking forward to heading there on one of the next weekdays our teenager has off to try their sandwiches.
