came to quarters with a group of 6 after landing late at night. we were seated at around 10:40 pm for a 10:20 pm reservation. the music is way too loud in here. I could barely hear anyone in my party and so while the music was blasting and other parties are raising their voices to hear each other, we stayed mostly silent. the staff that was helping us looked extremely tired and like they didn't wanna be there anymore. I understand it was late but they weren't very friendly. we ordered the jumbo combo and the beef was the best of the combo. every cut of beef was tender and flavorful. my party personally wasn't a fan of the pork as it had a strong smell to it. we could have also done without the seafood. the side dishes were plentiful and all very yummy. I liked how the kimchi was nice and sour to cut through all the meat. we ordered the corn cheese which was good but small for the price ($12). we also got the steam egg but it wasn't anything special. although pricey, I would come back for only the beef. read more

Quarters Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here to celebrate my friend's birthday, and now I understand why he's always raving about this place! The food was absolutely delicious, and the entire experience was so much fun! The meats were amazing, and our cook did such a great job! But surprisingly, my favorite was the Korean broccoli salad they served as a side. I don't know what it was about that salad, but I was obsessed! I kept ordering more because it was just that good! It's definitely on the pricier side, but for good reason. Between the quality of the food, the service, and the overall experience, it was well worth it. Such a fun way to celebrate a birthday, and we'll definitely be back! read more

Quarters Korean BBQ - About to begin - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is my favorite à la carte kbbq. A lot of my family and friends like baekjeong which I understand but for me Quarter's meat quality is so much better along with their casual but helpful hosts that know when to check in. Their kimchi stew was fantastic very rich and flavorful with a nice tangy aged kimchi. I don't just come here for kbbq but for other items on their menu! read more

According to yelp check in, I am a regular at this place I do agree with some of the reviews that the customer service could be better. I had some visits where the server and host came across as rude, and other times service was average (not exceptional by any means). My usual when I come with my family: - marinated short rib - rib eye - beef brisket - pork belly - shrimp - scallops I don't come to LA enough to try other Korean bbq places so this has been my go-to spot. It's a safe choice and I already know I like the food. read more

Came here for my boyfriend's birthday dinner with a party of 7 and an 8pm reservation. Instead, we spent 1 hour and 40 minutes waiting before finally walking out. We checked in as instructed, only to be repeatedly told "another 10-15 minutes." You can imagine our frustration when an influencer and two other guests arrived and were immediately seated at a TABLE FOR EIGHT. Meanwhile, our party of seven with an actual reservation was still waiting. Make it make sense. To top it off, the employee at the entrance had an unnecessarily nasty attitude when I tried to check in. One of the hosts eventually apologized, explaining that the restaurant was busy. Respectfully, isn't that why reservations exist? I understand restaurants get busy, but nearly two hours of waiting, unreliable updates, and watching other guests get seated while you're left waiting is unacceptable. We came to celebrate a birthday, not waste our evening standing around. If you can't honor your reservations, don't accept them. read more

I wasn't impressed. There's not much for ambiance and the service was lacking. The food quality was good for the most part, but overpriced especially considering the minimal portions. Ordered the combo 2 and split with a friend. The short rib was flavorful, but bulgogi and pork jowl were bland. The soybean stew was pretty good though! We left feeling unsatisfied and still hungry after, which was a bummer as I've heard pretty solid reviews from this place. Won't be back. read more

The food is delicious. The wait can be a little intense, but worth it. The service is good. Some servers are more friendly than others, but nothing out of the ordinary. The restaurant can be loud because of how busy it is. read more

Great Korean BBQ spot. I've been wanting to try Quarters for a while now so booked a table for my sister's birthday. Came at opening on a weekday afternoon to avoid the crowd and lack of parking. There were 5 of us so we got the jumbo combo along with a couple orders of the kimchi fried rice. Everything tasted great - meat was good quality and I always love when you get staff to cook the meat for you. I'm always the designated griller at KBBQ so it's nice to sit back and let somebody else handle it once in a while. The beef belly and short ribs were my favorite. I also love that they give you a giant cheese fondue that lasts through all the meat. Kimchi fried rice was also killer (which is why we got a second order). The service was alright. Although everything came out quickly and we had people grilling for us, it seemed like it was all done begrudgingly. It was fine though. We had a good time and the food was equally good. read more

Ooookay Quarters I see you! It's been a hot spot at Chapman Plaza for ages and when I say hot spot, I mean expect it to be packed, rowdy and loud at this KBBQ. There's a lot of good at Quarters, they have a full bar people can go up to while waiting for their table which is nice for people. They have TVs all over so if you want to see the World Cup or Dodgers game, they'll surely be playing it here. A great thing is they DO take reservations, a rarity in KBBQs in the city. Keep in mind that doesn't mean immediate seating, tables still need to turn so if you have kids, you could be waiting 20 minutes post ressie time like my group did last week. Now the food was great! I would put their eats squarely in the middle of the mid-price-range Korean BBQs in the city. A surprising highlight was their corn cheese which felt a bit more creamy than other spots! I enjoyed their marinades and meats for this price point and they cooked all our meat for us. Our server did get scolded at one point for letting our meat burn a bit, but it wasn't too bad and didn't effect things much. I was also surprised how much I loved their banchans! That broccoli and potato salad and I also love when a place has rice paper! My favvvvvvvv~! I was kind of surprised they didn't replace any of our banchans when we ran out, however when we asked they did give us more without issue. I think we might have had a new server helping us, so all good. Overall, enjoyed all the food and especially their banchans! If the loud and fun atmosphere is your style, you'll love Quarters! I'm sure I'll be back to this LA classic spot again soon! read more

Went to celebrate my birthday, and while it was fun having someone grill for us, the overall experience wasn't anything crazy. Given all the hype, I expected something mind-blowing. There's definitely a lot of clout around this place and it makes for a good "have you been to Quarters?" conversation starter. Beyond that, there's not much reason to visit as you can get an unlimited meat selection with comparable quality across the street. I live just around the corner and had been meaning to try it for a while. Glad I can finally cross it off the list, on to the next spot. read more

Quarters Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Been to Quarters a couple of times and it's a good change up from AYCE. There's free parking on the street if you can find a spot or else they have a paid parking in their lot. I feel like Quarters has been slowly dying in popularity as the last few times I've been there there hasn't been a wait. Although this may be due to a tough economy right now and this place isn't cheap. If there is a wait, there is a bar area you can order drinks from while you wait with a nice outdoor patio space. The banchan they have is all relatively good with a sweet mashed potato, green onion salad, kimchi (too sour for my liking), tofu with a spicy sauce, and broccoli with walnuts in a light dressing. The sauces they give you is a brisket sauce, chili sauce, pesto sauce, a sweeter brisket sauce, and salt. You need to order 3 meats minimum as their rule. The meal comes with raw vegetables that they grill and a side of melted cheese. Last time I went, I ordered the 1/4th lb of brisket, beef short rib, beef tongue, and pork jowl. My favorites were definitely the beef tongue which were thicker cuts than typical but tender. The pork jowl had a great texture that was slightly bouncy and great flavor. Wasn't a big fan of the short rib as I thought it lacked flavor but its marbling was nice. Overall, this isn't a place I will go to too frequently due to how expensive it is for what you get. I do recommend it for special occasions as the meat quality is a bit higher and they cook for you. read more

I've been coming to this Korean bbq spot for years now! Service is fast & I never really have to wait super long but I have waited an hour before because it's just that much worth it! Usually for 2 ppl and drinks we spend about $200 with tip and I never complain, it's definitely a treat. It's always super clean I can't just not recommend this place. Servers in the photo chefs kiss, cooked my food to my liking and cut fat just like I asked read more

We came here on a Saturday night after a baseball game. Parked in a pay lot and walked up around 10PM. The wait for 4 was 10-15 minutes. The service and staff was friendly. We had the short rib, bulgogi, shrimp, and pork belly. Everything was delicious- the best part was the short rib. The staff cooks everything for you, so that was nice. The prices were moderate. The side dishes were good. This place could be great if they had more side dish options (was missing the cucumber kimchi and fishcake) and if they had rice paper or radish to wrap the meet in. The meal needed a starch of some kind. A cool part was they had a wall with celebrity signatures by the bathrooms. Really cool to see the different celebs that have visited. read more

Really solid Korean bbq place. We came around 2:30 pm and the place was packed with people. You can make reservations on resy beforehand which is convenient. We did combo 2 which came with pork jowl, bulgogi, short rib, and beef belly. They threw in a bunch of complementary items as well which was nice. We got a kimchi pancake, tofu stew, and cheese fondue. Would definitely recommend coming by! Parking is a bit difficult, it's either $20 for parking near the restaurant, street parking, or free neighborhood parking. Staff were all efficient and nice. They grill your meat for you! read more

Quarters is a popular KBBQ spot in Koreatown that I've been hearing about and I finally visited for the first time. The quality of meat is great and I love the flavors and textures of the cuts! My party of 4 ordered a Large Combo which came with a variety of beef and pork options and a kimchi or soybean stew. The portions were smaller than I expected, but still filling, maybe more for a party of 3 than 4 people. The ribeye was tender and the marinated short rib was delicious! The cut of the pork belly and pork jowl made a difference for me, it was on thick side which I personally prefer. But I would have to say, I'm not a fan of the spicy pork jowl. Though the flavor was okay, the quality wasn't as good as the non-marinated version. The banchans were delicious, my party really liked the green onion salad, rice paper, and potato salad! The servers were attentive and kept checking in on our meats, making sure it was grilled properly, though our marinated beef short rib did get burned a little in the beginning. The sides were refilled when requested. The place was pretty busy so I recommend making a reservation read more

Quarters Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

You know why it's called Quarters? It's because you get a quarter of the service that most other Korean bbq restaurants give you, a quarter of the meat, and a quarter of the ventilation. I would've given it one star but the meat quality and sides were good. We waited an hour to get seated which is pretty standard for Korean bbq restaurants and I liked that they had a bar for us to get drinks as we waited. When we walked into our seat, the area was so foggy it was like a smoke show and it became even worse when we were grilling the meat. My friend's eyes were burning the whole time he was eating due to the smoke from poor ventilation. Also keep in mind the weather outside is like 80 degrees at night so everyone at my table was sweating. As for the meat, the server brought it out fast but he literally shoved everything out of the way just to place the meat. I didn't know why he had to be so aggressive? You could very much calmly move the side dishes and place the meat down like any other regular person would? The sides they gave us were probably 6 pieces of rice paper and a portion of kimchi and salad good enough for two people. When we requested more, they grabbed our empty plates and never brought it out again. I had to remind them three times and by the time the sides were brought out we were already done with the meat. We also ordered a pitcher of beer but at this point you could probably already predict that we never received it. As for portion sizes, we got the beef combo, pork belly, and marinated short rib. I'd say that would probably be enough for 2-3 people but we ended up spending over $150! And they charged us 22% tip for this amazing service that we received. I'd say save yourself the time and money and go to another Korean bbq restaurant. It's Ktown, there are so many other better kbbq places with better service, ventilation, and portion sizes. read more

Went to Koreatown to check out a popular KBBQ spot called Quarters. Their menu is à la carte but they have combos you can order. I ordered combo 2 which was $105 but comes with 4 different meats, banchan and your choice of a soup. The meats included, beef belly, pork jowl, short rib and bulgogi. All the meats were tender and seasoned well. The meal comes with 4 sauces that included brisket sauce, salt, chimichurri and a spicy sauce. The servers here cook for you so you don't have to. Just sit back to relax and enjoy your meal. Once one meat is done they will move it to the side and begin cooking the next meat. There is really no down time so we finished the meal in about 1 hour. Parking can be tough but the lot in the back is $10. I have found meter parking when I came here so try circling around or going one back away. read more

Delicious food! The service was good, but the vibe was great. This is definitely more of a trendy spot in Koreatown, I've been in a couple times and have had good experiences each time. It's definitely on the pricier side, but it is very good if you decide to go. read more

Quarters Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Yum! We came here early on a Friday afternoon, so it was totally empty :) My husband and I shared the beef combo, which comes with brisket, rib eye, and grilled bulgogi, along with some vegetables and your choice of kimchi or soybean stew (we picked kimchi). The meat quality was pretty good and I love that they grill the meat for you here! The brisket tasted pretty standard, but the bulgogi was surprisingly really good. I like how thinly sliced and perfectly marinated it was. My favorite side was their salad, which had a refreshing, flavorful dressing. The kimchi stew was way too salty in my opinion, so we only ate a few bites of it. My husband really liked their spicy pancake side dish (no idea what it's actually called, lol). The interior was huge with lots of tables. Our server was polite and efficient with cooking our meats. Luckily we were able to park in the lot for $4, but the lot doesn't have that much space and the spaces are pretty small. Not sure if parking is more expensive on evenings/weekends, and also not sure what other parking options there are if the lot fills up. read more

i've been wanting to come here forever since i was 15 after hearing so much hype about it. obviously the hype has died down but they're still part of the michelin guide. thoroughly enjoyed all the meats, though i found it a lil odd they served the marinated meats first (usually served last bc they're the yummiest parts), nonetheless i lovedddde the marinated short rib holy it was actually god tier. they even cut up the meat right on the bone for us after seeing tiff and i eye it LMAOOOOOO. the cheese fondue was a really nice westernized touch that ive never seen before but really enjoyed especially with the pork jowl, felt like i was filling the meat into fresh nacho cheese LMAO. the super westernized sauces kind of threw me off a bit, i would've rather had ssamjang and soy-based sauces over the chimichurri and what tasted like a version of gochujang mayo lol. stews and side dishes were nothing to write home about imo. Space is big inside and service is fine, they cook the meat for you. read more

Tried Quarters, a true LA staple, and overall thought it was pretty good. It was not the best KBBQ I've had in LA, but the meat was definitely quality and some cuts stood out more than others. It is a bit pricey, though, and while we made a reservation, we still had to wait around 10 minutes for a table. The waiting area was packed and so was the restaurant, which took away from the appeal a little at the start. That said, the large combo was more than enough food for three people and overall the meal was solid. I'm not sure I would rush back since I think there are other KBBQ spots in LA that offer a little better value, but Quarters is still a solid choice for quality KBBQ. read more

I think my expectations were too high knowing everyone raved about this being their favorite kbbq place and the fact that they were recognized in the Michelin guide last year. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad, but it didn't blow me away either. We ordered Combo 2 which came with beef belly, seasoned boneless short rib, pork jowl, and grilled bulgogi. All were good except the last one -- it was sweet and didn't have the typical bulgogi taste, possibly because they use a unique recipe for the marinade. They cook everything for you, so all you have to do is watch and eat. The combo came with your choice of kimchi or soybean stew, vegetable skewer, cheese, and kimchi pancake. That's more than enough for two or even three people, but just for fun, we got extra sides. We ordered the corn cheese, steamed egg, and cold kimchi rice noodle. I think the only one really worth it out of these three was the steamed egg. I wouldn't get the others again. Our server was really great though which made the experience a lot better considering it was so difficult to hear what the other person was saying with the loud music playing in the background. He cooked the meat well, and checked in on us often. We had a reservation made for a Tuesday evening so the check-in process was pretty seamless and we were in within 5 minutes. I got super lucky with street parking but your options are valet or a paid lot nearby. read more

A Huge Shout-Out to Yomi! I want to take a moment to recognize Yomi, one of the workers at Quarters Korean BBQ in Los Angeles. This young lady deserves some serious recognition! She was the only one bouncing from table to table, cooking everyone's food on the BBQ grills, and she did it all with such patience, energy, and a great attitude. She was constantly on the move, making sure everyone was taken care of, and somehow still managed to be friendly and attentive. Yomi, I hope your management knows how much you're appreciated! You were working so hard, and it definitely did not go unnoticed. Thank you for making our experience even more enjoyable. You're doing an amazing job! Quarters Korean BBQ, you have a gem in Yomi! Please recognize this young lady for all her hard work. read more

I haven't been to Quarters in years and wow it's just as good as I remember. I got the beef combo to split with a friend and it was more than enough food!

The banchan was yummy and I always love the salad and greens that come with it. Awesome meal. I would've taken more pics but I was too busy eating!! read more

Unfortunately, our experience at Quarters Korean BBQ was really disappointing. Our server was extremely rude and seemed annoyed whenever we asked questions, repeatedly responding with "no" in a very dismissive way. The service completely took away from the experience. Honestly, save your money and go to Origin instead. The selection and service are much better, and they actually have a great variety of sides that are delicious. We won't be returning to Quarters read more

I had heard about Quarters Korean BBQ for a long time and finally went with a group when a friend was visiting town. Very easy to reserve a table on Resy. The restaurant is verrrry busy so definitely recommend booking in advance! It just feels a little rushed, as even the moment you get to the table there are already starters laid out for you. Some might like that because if you're hungry, you get to have some little bites right away, but I personally prefer to dine out at a more relaxed pace. Their meat was excellent, perfect balance of fat and they cook the meat in front of you really well. Loved their Banchan (Korean sides) and kimchi, I only wish they gave more of it! It's okay though because you can ask for extra. I tried a variety of beef and pork and they were both delish! And I loved their soup (Kimchi Chigae), so comforting. Because of how crowded it was, it definitely took away from the ambiance. But the waiters were pretty friendly and helpful, and for all the food you get, it is a great price! Come hungry. read more

Food was definitely not a five or four star experience. The meat was very fatty and also they sat us in the same booth a table that was finishing up. The people were friendly in the table so we sat down, but I'm sure that all the little condiments were sitting out for a cool minute, and they still decided to sit us there. Regardless it was OK until I went to the freaking bathroom. This is not cute in anyway and left a bad taste in my mouth after already finishing my food I figured who the hell runs a restaurant and has their bathroom look like this like people are gonna go in there and just be like what the fuck why couldn't they send anybody to clean that damn bathroom. Ew. read more

Quarters Korean BBQ - Women's bathroom - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

For my birthday, one of my best friends sent me a gift card for a meal at Quarters Korean BBQ. We made a reservation through Resy for a Friday night. I highly recommend making a reservation because this place gets really packed and the wait for a table can be up to an hour almost every night. Parking is also a pain in this area but luckily we managed to find free street parking, which was a miracle for a Friday night. Upon arriving, we let the host know, and despite having reservations, we were asked to wait in their outdoor sitting area, and we were told that it would be a longer wait to sit inside, so we picked the outdoor sitting area, which was fine because it was a lovely warm night. It took the waiter about 10-15 mins to put together water cups and all sides, so I guess we could've just sat inside, but at this point, we just decided to sit outside. We picked combo 2, which included the beef belly, pork jowl, beef short ribs, and bulgogi. Our favorites were the bulgogi and beef short ribs. They were great quality and super juicy, and also loved the sweet marinade they both had. We also ordered some rice and corn cheese. Corn cheese was cheesy and delicious as well. Combo 2 also came with a choice of soup and a bunch of side dishes and salads which were all very tasty. Overall, it was a good meal but our waiter was not friendly at all, not even a smile, and didn't explain any of the meats, and also didn't let us know when they were ready for us to eat. He just came by a few times turned the meat around and left. If the service would have been better I would have 100% given this place 5 stars. I expected a place on the Michelin Guide to have way better service! read more

Outright Incredible! I was here last night celebrating the beginning of my CSUN career with some of my high school classmates who I am still in touch with to this day. We ordered the Jumbo and the Large combo for each side of our party of 10 people. Each came with the kimchi or soybean stews which were very umami flavored, and well seasoned. The service was very impressive, and I enjoyed the entire experience! It was very busy, considering the World Cup was on tv inside the entire restaurant. Everything, down to the last drop of beer was well worth the drive from San Fernando Valley. I will definitely try to come back when I am in the area again. Thank you! read more

Love the variety you get in this combo of 4 different types of meat (pork jowl which is more of try expensive type of pork as some places only include pork belly in the combos), soup, cheese deep, and kimchi pancake. It's pretty affordable compared to other kbbq spots in terms of quantity and quality. They don't skimp on the sides as some places will take awhile to give you more. read more

Came here for dinner with a friend on a Friday and had an early reservation--sat quickly and smoothly. I know a lot of people love the combo sets, but I'll admit it: I'm not a bulgogi person (hot take, I know). I'm here for high-quality cuts of meat cooked perfectly, so I can build my own ideal bites with the sides and sauces. I definitely judge KBBQ spots by their banchan and sauces, and Quarters does not disappoint. The spread included salad, rice paper, broccoli slaw, and classics like kimchi. Sauce-wise, they had the essentials: salt (with sesame oil if you want), a spicier (gochujang?) sauce, and a brisket-style sauce that paired really well with the meats. For meat, we ordered the pork jowl, which is always a must for me--less fatty than pork belly with a great bite (9.5/10). The beef belly has become a new favorite, and we chose it over brisket. Super tender and flavorful (9/10). The boneless beef short rib was another standout--thicker cut, juicy, and cooked beautifully (9/10). I'll say it again: the quality of meat here is excellent. LA has no shortage of great KBBQ, but when you compare price to quality, Quarters is absolutely top tier. For drinks, we shared a few bottles of zero-sugar soju, some Terra beer, and Sprite (yes, we made Milkis shots--look it up if you don't know, they're delicious). We also got an order of corn cheese, which was exactly what it should be: rich, comforting, and very satisfying. Service is fast but still friendly. I've been here twice now--on a previous visit without a reservation, my friend and I grabbed a couple bottles of soju at the outdoor bar while waiting and ended up making new friends. The vibe is lively and fun, with the smell of great food in the air. If you're craving quality KBBQ, you really can't go wrong here. It's a favorite spot in my friend group, and I'll definitely be back. read more

One of the best KBBQ places I've tried! I've been wanting to try for the longest and so glad I finally did. The quality of the meat is delicious & fresh. I loved the chicken skewers which were a huge portion as well. This KBBQ is not all you can eat but still got so full anyways & I recommend the combo meals that feed 2-3 people. Me and my friend got the lychee martini & raspberry cocktails. They were so mid, not full to the top & not strong at all so docking a star for that. Workers looked a lil irritated too. Ambiance is very loud & tvs everywhere, so I can see how they could be. They also had a nice patio where you can wait for your name to be called. Oh & worker put our name down wrong so they called the wrong name & had to wait longer. But despite everything, I will be back for the food! read more

Came here for a birthday party and definitely enjoyed my experience here! Parking was atrocious in the area in K-Town but I would do valet next time. Upon arriving, we had a party of 5 and there was 4/5 people at the restaurant and I was the 5th trying to find parking and they gave up our spot so fast. I wasn't too far away but I was a bit annoyed they couldn't hold it longer. I know it's on me and they have their rules but that was frustrating because their waitlist is very long. Luckily, it went by fast. As for the food, It's cool it's not AYCE because sometimes I'm really not in the mood for all that food. We split between three people, the Beef combo with brisket, ribeye and grilled bulgogi. All were very tasty, from what I remember the bulgogi was heavily marinated with sauce. It served three of us perfectly but two can work too. They also have a lot of tapas options which looks enticing to get next time. For the service, I love how they cook and cut the meat for you. Our waiter was attentive but didn't say much when we asked him for sauces, rice paper and drinks. Didn't seem social when we tried to be and also there were times he got busy and didn't come to finish cooking our food. Overall good experience and would be back. read more

Every time I've tried to go to Quarters, there was a huge wait and I bailed to go elsewhere. Not this time! I stuck it out and managed to get a spot with my group of four: it was worth it. Service was speedy, with the staff quickly getting us seated, taking our initial orders and getting the side dishes arrayed all over our table. Interior is spacious, somewhat dimly lit but with focused lights on the grills and a good variety of table sizes. There's also a small outdoor area for the bar, which I've gone to many times (while waiting to get in). The drinks here are good, though nothing super special for what you can find in Koreatown. Ambiance is lively/loud, and nothing like the more premium/super modern KBBQ spots in LA, so be prepared to speak on the louder side if the chatter volume increases. My group went all in on the beef, going with the large combination and going for seconds on the bulgogi before we ran out of stomach space. I'm glad we didn't go with the jumbo combo, as a table next to us got it and it looked like it could feed maybe eight people. The beefs were all top notch for KBBQ, well marinaded, and with Quarters using different grill types (wire mesh vs slot) as needed, and the staff were attentive with changing out the grill when needed which were pluses. Banchan were fine with a good selection to complement the meats. I took an Uber her for this visit. There's parking nearby (medium sized parking lot), though it was a pain the last time I tried finding a spot and ended up walking to Quarters from further away. My LA friends in the group who frequent Quarters mentioned they've raised their menu prices over the years. I'm glad I got to finally visit Quarters. This was a great KBBQ experience. read more
