Tasty Korean BBQ Doesn't Take Debit Card or credit Card...everything is cash....
Debra N.

They are overpriced and don't list all their menu with prices. BBQ chicken isn't listed. They not worth my time and would not bring my family. Ambiance not so friendly. Only accept cash only...no debit cards or credit card. Beware!

Dining area

Service is fast and friendly and the atmosphere is amazing. The food portion is great if you get your plate without rice, they give you an extra choice of a side.

Ready to order

For years I've been going to tasty BBQ even when I moved from Mililani, the Place is still one of my favorite places to go for Korean food, I love their special plate but today I went light and got a mini plate but I just love the vegetables and the taste of the food before I was used to Dong Yang in wahiawa another childhood memory place but this is my spot from High School till now, service is always excellent, fast and a great takeout place if you got to go, it's mellow not to noisy, I love it there and if you never know you need to go

From on finger size meatjun..
Jenny C.

Their meatjun is tasteless, need more salt.... and it's extremely greasy!!! Holy shit... probably cause carotid artery to clog! Won't ever order again. Spend $ 55 for 2 orders.

Mini meat Jun plate without rice (extra side if no rice) - shoyu potato, mayo potato, Kim chee
Gen G.

Great Korean spot! Meat jun is our go-to! Side veggies are always so good. Their Kim chee is bomb. Friendly staff, clean restaurant and very generous plate sizes too! Keep in mind they are cash only. We'll be back!

Tasty special and mini meat Jin
Trix Q.

There are great options to choose from and the veggies sometimes vary. Staff is excellent and always nice. The atmosphere has a good old local dinner feel. Located within a mall so there are plenty of seating inside and out. It is CASH only.

Mandoo kook soup
Lauren D.

They serve a lot of food for the price, which is nice. Food is pretty tasty. I usually get the meat jun plate but today decided to try their mandook soup and it was delicious!! So tasty, albeit very salty. Service is pretty quick and they have some indoor benches and tables to dine at, thought you order at the counter.

Regular combo- meat Jun and bbq chicken with mac salad, potatoes, kimchi and cold noodles
Jennifer S.

Talk about the biggest plate ever!!! It's my birthday and we've got a lot going on. My husband said the least we can do is grab lunch. Korean food sounded delicious so after running some errands we dropped by. Walked in and ordered at the counter and paid. There's seats and tables to eat there but we had to run home so opted to take to go. We ordered one mini kalbi, regular combo with meat jun and bbq chicken for my daughter to share and then a side mandoo. Food was ready in no time and it was piled high. The mini plate came with 2 side dishes and the regular came with 4. Our bag was so heavy and the food could barely survive the Togo container. Got home and we were super hungry but we barely put a dent in our regular plate! My husband enjoyed his plate and happy to say, we'd definitely come back. The sides were my favorite but I'd probably skip the kimchi next time. Not as flavorful as I had hoped.

Kimchi soup meal (mild meant cabbage not kimchi I guess)
Jason Y.

There was no dine in option but at least there's tables outside. Food takes s lil bit to make, but not too long of a wait. Quantity of food is great, but flavor is kinda lacking. Vegetable sides were a little disappointing as they were a bit bland. Our mistake asking for a mild kimchi soup as it ended up coming out clear. At least we were able to get a small sauce from them to add in after. For the prices you'll pay, probably best to walk 50ft and get better options at Mililani BBQ.

BBQ Beef
Reef A.

Been coming here for years but never left a review. Most customers usually takeout here although there are a few tables to sit. It's a simple casual no frills place. I usually get the BBQ Beef and you can substitute rice to get the 5th side order. Food tastes good and portions are generous. This place is popular so you know the food must be good. The counter is usually well staffed so service is quick. Never had any complaints about food or service except that they accept cash only. It's good that they give the total price upfront when you make a phone order and tell you it's cash only. Parking for this shopping center is large but many times is full. Always a good spot to get Korean food in Mililani and the prices are reasonable compared to the nearby Korean restaurant across the courtyard.

Kalbi
Van K.

I eat here way too often It's something about that Kalbi, that bbq chicken, the way they scoop your 3-4 banchan choices, the way the Mac salad mixes with the white rice, that pickled daikon and carrot is top tier. This place is cash only! It has enough seating but I usually just bring it outside to sit on one of the tables provided. Awesome staff, and it's nice to see younger folks working. Nice job Tasty for employing our youth!

This place is a mililani staple and I grew up eating their food…read more The meat jun is always my go to and it's so good! I love that it's not overcooked so the egg coating doesn't get too dried out. Their meat jun sauce is also one of the best. The meat is a little on the thin side though. Their banchan was all pretty good with some unique stuff like this one thing with thin sliced fish cake like things. The Kim chi is top notch. The chop chae was another winner. Good flavor with a nice variety of veggies in there and pretty big pieces of beef. You can get the mandoo steamed or fried and we got steamed. I thought it was a little bland but it's also probably better fried. Not a problem for us but if you're vegetarian be aware that the tofu soup has clams in it.

Great Food, but the Service and Wait Times Are Extremely Disappointing…read more This Korean restaurant used to be one of my favorites, so it's really disappointing to write this review. Unfortunately, the service and wait times have gotten to the point where dining in is just not worth it anymore. We waited an entire hour just to be seated. When we arrived, there was one table with a reserved sign and another that simply needed to be cleared. There was only one party ahead of us on the waitlist, and they were seated shortly after we arrived. We actually experienced something similar last week when we were told it would be an hour wait, but decided not to stay. What made the experience even more frustrating was watching customers finish their meals and leave, only for ALL the tables to remain uncleared until everyone had left. There seemed to be no urgency to prepare tables for waiting customers. The waitlist itself was also poorly managed. They don't even cross off names of customers who have already been seated, making it appear as though there are still several parties waiting. This is misleading for customers arriving later who are trying to determine how long the wait actually is. Once we were finally seated, things didn't improve. We were the first group waiting to have our order taken, yet the lady took the order of the group seated after us first. The same thing happened to the couple who had been waiting behind that group. Instead of taking their order next, she served another couple who had arrived after them. There seemed to be absolutely no consideration for the order in which customers arrived or were seated. Meanwhile, walk-in takeout orders continued to come in, further delaying service for customers already seated and waiting. It appears the restaurant is severely understaffed, with only one man cooking and one lady handling everything else. I understand how overwhelming that must be, but the lack of organization makes the entire dining experience frustrating. Customers shouldn't have to wait an hour to be seated, only to be overlooked when it's time to order. The unfortunate part is that I genuinely love the food here, especially the kimchi and other banchan. That's what has kept us coming back. But they really need additional help and a better system for managing tables, waitlists, and orders. Sadly, this will be our last time dining in. We'll stick to takeout and look for another Korean restaurant where we can actually enjoy a sit-down meal without the excessive wait and frustration. The food is still great, but the dining experience is definitely not worth the wait.

LOCATION: Yujin K-BBQ is located at 94-300 Farrington Hwy.,…read moreSuite B-03 in Waipahu Shopping Plaza, on the corner of Leokane Street and Farrington Highway. It's situated between Far East Sushi and the laundromat. There is plenty of free parking available throughout the shopping center. We visited on a Monday at 7:00 a.m. Please note that the restaurant will be undergoing renovations, so it's a good idea to call ahead to confirm their current hours. SERVICE: The woman who took our order was friendly and patient, especially since we were the only customers at the time. Our food was prepared fresh after ordering, and the wait was very short. TASTE: We ordered the Meat Jun Bowl, which included rice, sliced meat jun, scrambled eggs, diced pickled takuan, and long rice. The meat jun had good flavor, but unfortunately, no dipping sauce was provided. A packet of shoyu was included, but it wasn't a suitable substitute for the traditional meat jun sauce. Rating: 3/5 We also tried the Chicken Bowl, which came with rice, sliced BBQ chicken, diced pickled takuan, and long rice. The chicken had a delicious BBQ flavor, and the banchan complemented the dish well, making for a satisfying combination. Rating: 4/5 PRICE: From 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., the breakfast bowls are priced at $5.70, making them a very affordable option. OVERALL: Overall, it was an okay experience. The Chicken Bowl was the standout, while the Meat Jun Bowl could have been much better with the proper dipping sauce. I'm looking forward to visiting again after the renovations are complete and hope to see some improvements.

Yay! Another location for one of my favorite snacks!…read more First off, I like the location. I do a lot of errands and run a portion of my life in TC so to have this location is convenient for me. I know I shouldn't be eating this all the time, but I love it for when I don't want a full meal. I do miss the old food place that was in here, but at least when it left it provided a great, clean dine-in area for Mr. Cow. Honestly, as far as service, I don't know how to mess this up. You just take my order and then call my number when it's ready. I do notice that they may be the ones cooking it as well, but it's good to know that's how simple these hot dogs are. Overall, it's hard to mess this food up so it makes sense how it's able to expand so fast. Wouldn't be surprised if this place is a franchise. I also really appreciate that it has dippin' dots as well which is a great contrast to the food and there's not many dessert places out there. Or just many dippin' dots vendors out there in general. The best part about this is that it's just like the other locations, so you know what you get when you walk in. And when you think about it, that's hard to find in food establishments.

Love how spacious this Town Center of Mililani location has with a bunch of seating and seeing that they had Dippin' Dots and Ramyun Noodle station as well is not what I expected. After much indecisiveness it was my usual of "Fried Potato" which has chunks of diced potato fried along with the stick that I chose half mozzarella/half hot dog which is $1 extra no problem and it's a short wait as it's made to order and came out nice and hot where you need a moment before the burn but as I grabbed my box was a bit annoyed with the greasy hand print left on it that I was grateful I didn't just toss in my tote. What you also need to be mindful is that they do have a condiment station with six different sauces that you can bougie up your bite is a very nice offering though I did enjoy my bite as is and it was cooked perfectly and definitely filled me up to satisfy me until dinner. Thank you!

This spot is located on the corner of Kilani Ave and Cane St. I personally didn't go in as my Husbabe was the one in the area so I asked if he could stop by. This review is solely in regards to the bento food, not the side dishes that offer. Husbabe stated nice friendly younger worker that was there and a few people in line. We decided to go with LOTS of sides and try out the bento since everyone been hyping the food out here. I got the meatjun bento, which came with chap jae, daikon rice and furikake. My Husbabe got the fishjun bento which also came with the same sides. Let's talk about the bento. My honest review because I had really high hopes, but let's be clear before I go on. We are going to go back and try again, maybe earlier in the day as it was in the afternoon already (12ish). Okay so, the meatjun was really mushy, I thought maybe just that one piece I had, literally couldn't taste the meat, everything seemed mushed together. I tried a 2nd piece and samething. I was really sad :(. I really wanted it to be good. The chap jae was good.The bentos are room temp laid out on a table and not under any sort of warmer, so literally a grab and go. My husband said the same about his fishjun :( . The sauce that came with the meatjun was extremely odd, tasted heavy of some sort of soy sauce. We got gyoza and that was okay, the sauce was the same sauce as the meatjun, so I just made my own sauce. Now let's get to the sides. SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOD! My husband got the load of variety (pictured below). We are definitely gonna go back to try the bentos again and I gotta say the sides are so worth it tho and that kimchee, chef's kiss...
