    Great experience at SizzlinGogi! It was my first ever time at KBBQ and it was a memorable one. The service was GREAT! Our waitress checked in many times and had good tips. The food was fresh and all the little toppings at the table were really good. While it was my first time, the group I went with were KBBQ regulars and they agreed that the food and service were top notch. The restaurant had a nice vibe and friendly service.

    Yea, it's simply just fine. The price of the basic set is a bit crazy for how many choices you get but that's whatever. The brisket is alright, just a bit tough and lacks fat. The other meats are a bit better

    Beef bulgogi, pork belly, banchan, steamed egg, rice

    My family and I went while they were in town visiting, this is always my favorite spot to eat as the food is absolutely delicious and I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. The wait times can be pretty long, especially on the weekend but I think it's worth the wait. Highly recommend the beef bulgogi!

    Came in for lunch and ordered AYCE "all you can eat"on menu C (which is normally roughly $40, but during lunch is $36). Menu C consists of everything on menu A & B plus ribeye, shrimp, rib meat, and short ribs. Got there 20 min after opening and only needed to wait 5 min to be seated. Each table is set up with a grill, banchan (kimchi, sesame oil sprouts, cucumber kimchi, pickled radishes, and pickled jalapeños) , salad (cabbage based with a tangy dressing which was too bitter for my taste), seasonings (steak sauce, some sort of sambal/chili paste, and salt - which i add a little sesame oil to), and utensils (chopsticks, spoon, scissors, and tongs). I will always ask for sliced garlic, salt, pepper and sesame oil - to season the meats because only few meats are marinated and I enjoy grilling the garlic slices. I do prefer having lettuce to wrap the meats and banchan because the rice is pretty filling BUT charging $6 for lettuce? I would recommend the rib eye (seasoned with salt and pepper prior to grilling) marinated short rib, beef belly, brisket, shrimp (came seasoned), steamed egg. Service could have been better - felt as if they weren't very attentive since i needed to ask 3 times for sesame oil and that was 2 orders of meat in. Waitress also wasn't the friendliest - just felt as if ordering more or asking for something else was an inconvenience for her. As for decor it's just very grey - no actual pictures up on the walls. Pretty greasy - you can see it on the walls and light fixtures. There is an alcohol fridge in at the entrance with floor to ceiling wine and boxes of beer and soju on the floor. There is music playing which reminded me of playing DDR (dance dance revolution). They used to have outdoor seating during covid with cute patio lights but not right now - maybe they'll bring it back when its warmer? Overall - it is overpriced and the only KBBQ spot in the area and it might not hit the spot but you can get your fix.

    The wait today est. 45mins but it's so worth it though. We've been here so many times but today we got some premium short rib on the house (seasonal) from the store manager. He's so kind that even offer to cook the meats for us to its perfection eventhough he's pretty busy. We really appreciate that! It tasted so buttery and tender customer service always above and beyond. This made our night even better! Thank you so much xx

    I do like the food here but tonight I felt like I was penalized for eating alone. Not allowed to order AYCE as a single diner. I offered to pay for two and even then not allowed the AYCE menu. I ordered the three item combo, which was a ton of food! However the same price as the AYCE menu. Ambiance is okay. The server kept turning the grill down so the meat would just simmer instead of getting a sear and some grill marks on it.

    Is this an all you can eat place?

    You can order a la carte, but we always go for the fixed price all you can eat option.

    Is this place still operating?

    Not sure. Heard they were delivery or pick up only.

    How many people do you need to make a reservation?

    I was told 6 the first time I called and then 10 the time my dad called, but they all wait for you to get there before you are seated. Hope this helps :)

    Price on lunch for AYCE?

    All courses are $4 cheaper during lunch

    I believe they offer Lunch specials but it's not listed on the online menu. Does anyone know?

    There is just a set menu for lunch, the do not offer AYCE at lunch time anymore. Your best bet would be to look at the a la carte menu since that's probably most similar/what they offer at lunchtime.

That misleading listing is what caused me to book in the first place. When I discovered the error, I called to cancel. I asked three times whether a refund would be approved. Three times I was told yes, the manager would take care of it the next day. Don't worry, it's fine. So I trusted them. The next morning: denied. No refund. No explanation. No accountability. Because I trusted their word, I lost the window to just bite the bullet and make the hour drive to and from family. I had to book a second hotel out of pocket, stretching my budget in a way that was genuinely costly. All because a staff member couldn't simply say "I don't know" instead of giving me false assurances to get off the phone. This isn't a miscommunication. It's a lack of integrity. Do not rely on anything you're told verbally here and think twice before booking at all.

Should've ordered through phone because when I arrived for my supposed pick up time, I was told they just saw my order come through & wont be ready for another 15 minutes. Ended up waiting another 30 minutes. 1hr total. However, I would've let it passed if I was greeted and dealt with more pleasantly. Wasn't greeted, wasn't asked if I was looking to dine in or picking up, all without a smile. Just a RBF from one the short, female hostess. As well as the other female waitresses who didn't bother to check on my order after I was told it would be ready; but I was approached by a younger gentleman who did have the audacity to nicely ask and check on my order. And eventually when my order was ready, the hostess was eager to see me leave with my order so I wouldn't be roaming the entrance. Wouldn't have if they would've had my order on time. Wasn't even crowded. All in all, pizza wasn't good nor bad. Don't think i'd come back.

    Honey Belly is hands down one of my favorite Korean BBQ spots, and I've been to over 30 of them,…read moreincluding a lot in Koreatown LA. This place stands out. The pricing is very fair for what you get. A lot of all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ places say unlimited, but after a couple rounds, service slows down and it starts to feel like they're limiting you. That's not the case here. They're constantly checking in and asking if you want more, and now they also have a tablet system where you can order additional items directly, which makes it even easier to keep things moving. The quality of the meats is high, and everything tastes fresh. They also change out the grill frequently, which makes a big difference, especially with marinated meats. The banchan selection is what you'd expect from a solid Korean BBQ spot, and they keep it refilled without you having to ask. They also have a good drink selection, and service overall has been consistently strong. Most of the time, I've been seated right away, and the longest I've ever waited was about five minutes. The only downside I've noticed was that the tablet we used during our last visit could have been cleaner, which wasn't great, but that's honestly a minor issue compared to everything else they do well. Parking is what you'd expect for downtown San Luis Obispo. It can be a little challenging, but you're usually within a short walk of the restaurant. Overall, I would highly recommend Honey Belly. It's one of those places where if we're craving Korean BBQ, we're willing to drive a couple hours just to come here. That says everything.

    The meat and the banchan were delicious. The sides are okay, I tried the dumplings, egg roles, and…read morecheese corn. The dumplings and egg roles had a weird texture and were hard. The cheese corn seems like it's made with canned corn, which wasn't very good. The service was good, however no one came to fill up our banchan bowls this time.
