Great Korean BBQ spot. came with a large group and ate family style and it did not disappoint. Service was great and attentive, food was incredible and unlike other spots, they tend to the hot top and flip the meat and cut It. highly recommend for a night out! read more

Great experience! Nice array of appetizers, meat, soup, etc. to suit everyone's taste. The sampler of side dishes that came with the meat was amazing! Service was fast and friendly; ambiance was elevated but causal, appropriate for a date or family outing. The highlight of the meal, however, was the mango shaved iced; it was truly delicious! Highly recommend! read more

I can't remember now what all we exactly picked in our beef combo but it was good if you don't look at what you paid for it. The prices were a little steep considering the set up felt a little open and small. Also the back area of the establishment smelled of raw sewage the closer and closer you got to the restrooms. Hopefully it doesn't stink like that regularly. We were sat up front by the entrance so it wasn't an issue til I went to use the restroom after our meal. lol read more

Everything was tasteless. Nothing but one meat in the beef deal was marinated. The marinate was sweet. A lot stuff was sweet. I didn't like that at all. They don't say it's sweet but tastes like sugar. We did the beef deal and two sides of rice. We felt like it's too expensive for what you are getting. read more

Okay, so I'll be upfront first about why I am giving this place 2 stars 1. They only have beef and pork. They do not have chicken or seafood or anything. I do recall them having 1-2 tofu options but slim pickings other than the beef and pork. 2. The price was outrageous. Most Korean BBQ places have a set price between 15-25$ a person with unlimited meat. We got one of the cheaper bulgogi options that was 10oz for $35, that's absolutely ridiculous. Not to mention, this is fake Korean BBQ, they cook it for you (which is Mongolian style btw) and you don't get to cook anything. The bulgogi beef was delicious, it was seasoned well. However, 10oz is nothing because the meat shrinks as you cook it. My friend and I shared. They have a great spread of sides with two salads. The normal Romain lettuce salad with the ginger is always a favorite but the other salad tasted like grass. The sides were traditional, but you could not get extra. You also had to pay $5 for a small bowl of rice. Overall extremely disappointed in this "Korean BBQ" and will not be returning for another $80 bill with no alcohol and sharing ONE meat. read more

I absolutely love coming here!! I come here often with my friend's and family; nothing beats their cocktails. The service is quick and they cook it for you, you can also ask to cook it yourself. The environment is cozy and the music paid nicely with the meal. read more

I had to move my review to the correct location since it was originally at a different location so that's why the date is so far back in this review. We came here for dinner on 11/20/20 and waited a long time to be seated.  Once we were inside, everybody was social distanced inside as far as tables from other parties were concerned.  Each grill had a vent hood right above that could be lowered to collect the smoke so that was cool.  I don't remember a Korean BBQ place I've been to in the past where it was set up that way where you can raise and lower it.  We had the Beef Combo (beef brisket, rib eye, marinated short rib, marinated thinly sliced beef, and kimchi stew), Pork Belly, Steamed Egg, Asahi beer, and Peach Soju.   Our waitress helped set up everything as well as cooked the meat for us which was nice.  Everything tasted good and we ordered the right amount for how many of us there were (4 adults and 1 child).  I believe we finished everything we could since it all tasted good.  We should have ordered more but that would be for the next time we come here. Sizzle Korean Barbeque had great food and service and I will be back in the future! read more

Was in town for a work meeting and myself and my coworkers were craving some kbbq. We found the right one! Easily one of the best kbbq places I've been to. The cuts were some of the freshest and well marinated. Our service was great. Carlo had consistently checked on us. Def would recommend this place if you're looking for kbbq in the area! read more

Great service. Clean, nice atmosphere. Food was perfect. They cook it for you which was.fine but it kinda takes the fun out of it

We were visiting from CA and craving Asian food--this Korean BBQ spot did not disappoint! Our server, Josue (apologies if I'm not spelling that right!), was super friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. The aesthetic of the place was spot-on too; it reminded me of the KBBQ spots in Koreatown-LA which made for a really comfortable and familiar vibe. This was also the type of kbbq where they cook it for you, not AYCE. We ordered the beef combo for 3-4 people, and it was the perfect amount for us. The rib eye was definitely our favorite, loved the banchan, and the soybean stew was so flavorful. Quality and GREAT kbbq fix in AZ! read more

Great vibe. Clean inside. Waiter was great. Food was good. Definitely would recommend.

i went to this location for my first time we had a great time alot to pick from also they dont take reservations and if you get there late its kinda packed where to sit but food was good read more

Food was amazing. The serving sizes are generous and very flavorful. The service was fantastic as they cook everything table side for us.

Cute cozy restaurant. Best to check In during dinner hour to be on the waiting list so they can text you when your table will be ready. We ordered the Soju bottle alcohol drinks and all flavors are so good!! The $145 meet combo was good. Marinated short ribs and beef Bulgogi was flavorful. Beef belly was thinly sliced but Flavor was plain. Endless sides was a surprise and it kept coming everytime we requested it. Our waiter whom looks like ..(young Ryan Gosling) was so attentive and enthusiastic! He was overall an awesome waiter and cooked our meat very well!! Overall-----yummy A+ read more

We get there when no one is inside, we sit down and our waiter comes to up asking if we have any questions. I ask a question and she seems irritated by me asking, we order the $125 beef combo, kimichi fried rice, and dumplings. When she comes back and cooks it for us its a weird ambiance from her because she seems mad the entire time. We look at the meat and see how EXTREMELY FATTY all of it is. We get the rice and dumplings and they were just as terrible as the rest of the chump ass meat we ate. Seriously, when i say that she had a bad attitude she did. Dont work in customer service when you cant even SERVICE THE CUSTOMER. We paid $170 dollars for terrible food that will STILL LEAVE YOU HUNGRY AFTER. You would think for $170 it would fill you up but seriously this place is so awful and disgusting and the service was terrible i cant stress this enough. Everything is disgustingly fatty you wont be able to chew it, i had to spit out my food twice because of how inedible it was. Please go somewhere else its TERRIBLE. read more

Sizzle Korean Barbeque - Worst Korean bbq I've ever had in my life! - Korean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

So my daughter wanted me to try this spot hidden on the inside of Desert Ridge shopping mall/area.. Yes you must walk into the Mall area( if you're walking towards the movie theater turn around and walk the other way it's a little hidden) . They won't take reservations unless you have a party of 12 or more. But you can call to get on a wait list if your a few mins out... ( nice young lady dropped the gem via phone) Without calling the wait time for 5 was 35 mins... nice area to people watch and wait for a txt via phone while your on " the wait list" ... You can cook table side or they can do it for you. ( the tip is already calculated fyi) Korean taste was 8-10 ( lived in Korea for a few military years) the pork was exceptionally tender, the kimchi soup was good, the sides were ok.. nothing overwhelming. Large portions... we tried 3 diff meats. Two stone soups & a dumpling soup that was gone to the last drop. The wait staff was very good but & kind.. the place was busy and turning over tables left & right. Small space but it works. Delicious... $$$. You will pay for deliciousness. Well done bathrooms can only be used by one person at a time... ( not a fan) bathrooms could use a makeover. Cool place otherwise. Call a few mins ahead for reservations... try it. read more

Sizzle Korean Barbeque - Pin drop of hard to find Gem. - Korean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

*3.5 stars* Nice surprise to find Korean BBQ in Phoenix. While I didn't find it completely authentic, it was pretty close. First off the restaurant is on the smaller side so it got filled up really quickly. Other than that, a nice and clean decor. We ordered: Korean dumpling - good, but nothing special Kimchi stew - this was good. Beef combo (brisket, rib eye, marinated short rib, marinated thinly sliced beef - it was good but the bulgogi was very sweet. Overall, good experience but service was lacking. They constantly forgot to bring things that we requested and didn't do a good job cooking the meat, which is crucial. They mostly overcooked the meat which I did not appreciate. I would go back if I were in the area and would recommend if you wanted Korean BBQ. read more

Sizzle BBQ serves excellent, high-quality meat that never disappoints. The laid-back atmosphere makes it a great spot for both date nights and family outings. However, the service can be inconsistent -- sometimes great, sometimes not so much. While the food is delicious, the higher prices make me hesitate to visit too often. It's a good place, but not always the best value for the cost. Love the beautiful location on this one! read more

So I haven't tried many Korean BBQ restaurants, but I absolutely love Sizzle, the quality and taste of food is just amazing.This time I went friends and we got the large beef combo. I also ordered and tried for the first time the Kimchi Fried rice. Talk about good!! Everything was so delicious. Service was good and the ambiance was that of restaurant goers having conversations, eating amazing food and listening to the sweet sounds of the grill cooking away. I cannot wait until I go back to enjoy great food again. read more

Sizzle is by far our favorite korean restaurant in AZ. The quality is excellent and consistent. We come here 3-5 times a month and always get their Kalbi and spicy tofu soup. Customer service is amazing. read more

Very expensive for what you get. I shared a small beef combo for $105 with my partner which came with 4 cuts of beef, soup, and steamed egg. Our server was nice, however he overcooked our brisket. The brisket was very lean as well, so it ended up being tough and not enjoyable. The other cuts were fine, but in the end we couldn't justify the price. read more

The flaw in the business method here is that you have to make small talk with the person cooking your meat at your table stove. But let's not let that take away from a restaurant where vegetarians basically need not apply. If you're coming here you're gonna smell like meat after and that's exactly what Jimi wants in a restaurant. 5 stars read more

I just went to sizzle this past Tuesday (1/21). I had the bibimbap and the red bean snow dessert. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic! I wish I could remember the servers name, but I do recall him being quite tall and having glasses. read more

Yes the cuts are VERY expensive and were good however the server that we was in a rush and didn't care if she was flinging HOT oils and juices all over our faces. Give a warning or something come on....For a place that has the grills right in front of you but you're just not allowed to cook your own food so you're just sit there hoping the server will say something. read more

This place is PERFECT from start to finish! The service was the best I've had in Arizona thus far, super friendly and offering great recommendations while answering all questions. The ambiance was very laid back and timed to perfection not rushing us as we slowly devoured the many plates and sides. All of the sauces and veggies were so fresh and tasty, I cannot wait to come back soon :) read more

Korean restaurant in North Phoenix area! This place is pretty modern, nicely decorated, and looks like a nice steak house. :) I went there for lunch, had kimchi fried rice and hot spicy beef soup. Soup was pretty good, had plenty of meat and the broth was tasty, kimchi fried rice came with a fried egg, it was ok though. It wasn't bad but I felt like something was missing, like it wasn't that flavorful. Banchan here are all good and delicious, though! I wish they had lunch menu, they just have bbq and "meal" menu, if they had lunch menu like other koran bbq or Korean restaurants, I think it would be better and attract more people! read more

This place was pretty bad. I had several issues that made me have a mediocre experience. First was the level of music. I left this place feeling like my ears bled more than the meat I ate. It was too loud and made it feel more like a night club than a restaurant. Second issue was the quality of the meat, I'm not sure what happened but the meat didn't carry a flavorful experience. It was either old meat, or too marinated or the worst was a gas taste to the meat. Last issue was no kimchi. What the hell man. I am serious. What is up with that?!?! No kimchi. North Koreans get kimchi! Why can't I get kimchi!? What is wrong with you. Please fix that. I'm not sure I'll be back at Sizzle. From the noise level to the quality of the meat and lack of kimchi, I feel it was not an advisable experience. read more

Sizzle Korean Barbeque - Korean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This is one of my families go to spots when we want a great dinner. This is also the place my mom takes all our significant others to treat them to a tasty meal! We always get the same thing, which is the small beef set. In the set, there are six different choice options. This means that for the first meat, you have choice between two, for the second meat you have two new options. For our set this is what we always get: beef brisket (my favorite!), rib eye, marinated short rib, marinated thinly sliced beef (my mom's favorite), and the soy bean stew (the last option is a choice of stew). Pro tip: eat the brisket with the radish paper... this was suggested to me by my friend once and now I never eat brisket without radish paper. In this restaurant, the waiters cook your meats and they are very attentive to cooking at your table as well as cooking at others. They also are very good at making sure that you are satisfied with what they are cooking. The sets also come with many different side dishes! They will replace them for free and there is a large variety of them. You also get two different salads and a steamed egg. So LOTS of food! We also always get the shaved ice for dessert, because we all have dessert stomachs! The red bean is our favorite! Also their pork dumplings (mandoo/gyoza) are DELICIOUS! I am addicted to dumplings and they have one of my favorites to eat! read more

Had dinner here for the first time after a movie the other night. My experience with Korean BBQ is limited, but we found the menu easy to navigate, Our server was also helpful and answered all our questions. It was fairly busy for a Tuesday and we were told it gets really busy on the weekends. You should take this into account as they don't take reservations. We chose all beef meats and were not disappointed in any of them. We had brisket, short ribs, and ribeye steak and all were excellent. Your dinner also comes with a number of sauces for dipping, along with salad to share. The ambience is somewhat sterile, but very clean and inviting at the same time. Gave it four stars as prices are pretty steep, but will be back when mood hits for this type of cuisine. read more
