Bibimbub
Paul A.

Services are great. Good quality meats. If i come again i may not get the Premium buffet ($39) which is $10 higher than the lower level. The main reason I chose premium was because it has ribeye. However, there is a limit of 1 for the ribeye. The main differences between the premium ($39) and lower one ($29) are: -ribeye (limit 1) - seafood (shrimp, octopus, and squid). We just tried octopus, but not others. -appetizer: fried chickens, etc. What i tried and like are Kalbi, beef bulgogi, tofu soup. Tried and fell it is okay are: fried chicken, octopus, bibimbub. Not sure what happened, the fried chicken we order last took very long time.

Self serve sides bar

Came here for a birthday celebration with 11 people. Food was great! Everything came out pretty quick. They have a little sides/ toppings bar. The decorations are really great and there's even a mural of Squid Games on the wall. I think this is a solid option for marysville. We got AYCE and were FULL at the end

Soju flight

OMG ONE OF THE BEST KBBQ PLACE I'VE EVER BEEN TO!!! Place was relaxing & chill. Walked in and was greeted immediately. Explained everything to us since we were 1st timers. 3 different workers helped us & they were awesome! One lady (don't know name) was very joyful and chit chatted with us about the soju flights and telling us about her favorite while doing her job. Food was amazing! So many different options for AYCE! They let u choose any meat (multiple) and let me tell u the sides were perfect. We got fries, chicken wings, white rice, kimchi rice, cheese corn and soup. You will be timed for 90 minutes as soon as u order to finish all your food. But i'm pretty sure everyone can finish it before time ends since food was delicious and well seasoned. And if you don't finish they tell you before hand that it would be $15 per person added to the bill. WE FINISHED!!! They deserved that good tip & will be coming back for more!!! Ps; wasn't able to take pictures cause we dived right to it! Haha

We arrived at 11 AM on a Thursday for lunch and opted for the AYCE lunch at $23.99 per person, which we found to be very reasonable. The salad and side dish bar also included fresh vegetables for wrapping the meat. The staff was attentive and diligent, regularly checking on our heat level and whether we needed a grill change. We left feeling very full and especially appreciated the thick-cut pork belly! The restaurant was spacious with interesting interior decor. They also offered ramen for $5, and it looked like you could cook your own using their hot water dispenser. Parking was easy, thanks to the available parking lot.

Located in the business complex with Marshall, Michaels and Petco. Parking: plenty free shared retail parking space. Restroom: men and women restrooms. Service: is good as long as they are not super busy. ALL YOU CAN EAT LUNCH $23.99 DINNER $32.99 PREMIUM DINNER $38.99 See photo for all the descriptions They also serve Ala carte if you don't want all you can eat. Remember the whole party have to order the same type. So if one order AYCE premium dinner, the rest of the party must order the exact same thing. You have 90 minutes to eat. Any extra or waste , they will charge $15 We ordered the Dinner $32.99 I think that's plenty of options for food and appetizers and sides dishes. We ordered in 3 different times: Short rib x3 Brisket ×2 Spicy pork belly Beef bulgogi Spicy pork bulgogi Tofu Stone bimbimbap Deep fried mondoo Corn cheese Deep fried rice cake Soft tofu soup We finished them all. Self serve area: Lettuce Kimchee, fishcake, bean sprouts, spicy pickle cucumber etc Sauce: sesame, soy sauce, miso Mashed potatoes Fruits: watermelon, pinapple, oranges There's a squid game wall area. They constantly change the burner, because after you cook twice, the burner burned and become charcoal black.

Menu on a Sunday night
Laurel C.

What a vibe! The inside had some decor on par with LA town. We came in as a group of 3 on a Sunday night. We waited 30 mins for our table. The service was friendly, and I enjoyed being able to walk up to a banchan bar for extra kimchi instead of calling waiters like other restaurants. Tip: Order your rounds of meat ahead of time -- one of our meat orders took 15 mins to arrive. For the price of $39pp, I can't complain too much. The prices of KBBQ closer to Seattle / East side are $50+pp. In terms of meat quality, I thought it was reasonable given the price. If I wanted high quality cuts, I would have gone to a non-ayce. Selection was slim (missing beef tongue, intestines, etc) but everyone still left satisfied!

Love the addition of another kbbq spot up north, especially one that's AYCE (all you can eat)! Service here is amazing, everyone was so friendly. I love that they have a buffet line for their banchan (side dishes) and sauces, as well as some fresh fruit and veggies for grilling. They offer 2 options for AYCE - first is around $36 and premium, which is the additional ribeye per person and more appetizer options, is about $40. They also have al a carte options if you aren't interested in AYCE. We went with regular dinner AYCE, and I love that they have thick cut as well as thinly sliced pork belly. My favorite appetizer is the fried rice cakes, definitely try those! I also love their soft tofu soup and ours didn't come with any meat, so we just added the kbbq meats into it. Another thing I love is that they offer bibimbap (mixed rice) rather than just white rice. Try the hot stone bibimbap, and don't be scared of the red sauce they bring out because they made theirs more sweet than spicy. The menu and flavors are definitely on the "safe side" as they are catering to the demographics of the area, so we'll still have to travel to at least Lynnwood (Baekjong has intestines and Arirang has spicy raw marinated crab) when the cravings hit, but I'm still happy that options for Asian food are expanding up here!

First time at The K BBQ for north end. Service was good, had no complaints. Server checked on us frequently. Price point for KBBQ was fairly priced for the quality of food. Food quality overall was decent - did its job for feeding us.

This was our first time here. We went on a Saturday evening so it was cozy and bustling inside. It was busy but there was 1-2 table available, luckily no wait for us. We did the basic ayce. We were in the mood for beef so did orders of the beef brisket and marinated beef short ribs and refilled those. The marinated short ribs were amazing- melt in your mouth and just a really good marinade. They have a veggie & ban chan bar which I really liked and also a handful of hot apps as part of the ayce option. The beef and soft tofu soup was fantastic-- the broth was super tasty. The service was spectacular too! We had our grill changed 3 times when it was burnt without having to wave someone down. It was great! We live in the Seattle area but we would totally make the drive back up here just for the delicious food & awesome experience!!

Interior decor is Korea 60's Traditional ads. Very cool  place to visit and go back in time of Korean old memories.

Most definitely, my fam and I love this place. Despite 35mi from Seatttle. Hands down one of the best AYCE place in town. We have friends who are Korean from Federal way that frequent this place. Remember to sign up with your mobile no for points and discount. We visited (Fri) 12/12/2025 for dinner (7) was seated and had a great fam dinner.

I follow this influencer on IG and the places she recommends are pretty good. Since I was at the Seattle Premiere Outlet decided to give this place a try. Normally there's nothing good to eat around outlets. Walking in it appears to be nicely decorated. It was busy but we still got a table within 5 minutes. Let's start with the pros: - Nice decoration - It didn't have the heavy smell that other BBQ places have. - They didn't limit the amount of meats you can order at 1 time. Note- there is a $15 charge if you waste food. - Meats were seasoned very good. - Salad bar area with veggies, sauce, side dishes. Cons - reasons for the low stars - Overall bad customer service. When we had a question they were too busy to answer. Took them a while to get back. - They didn't ask if we needed a refill of water until after we paid our bill. Lol! - Ordered 2nd round and they brought us the wrong meats. Plus we had to get the waiter attendant to order more food. They won't come check on you. - The salad bar could have been better. Missing Jap Chae which all other Kbbq have. The fish cakes wasn't that tasty. Kimchi wasn't that good too. - Waiters running around like chickens with their head cut off. They also didn't clean up the dishes when done. - Expensive for the amount of available meat options. We got the basic option. - We asked to speak to a manager but the waitress said they were too busy to talk to us. What's up with that??? We are the customer. ****Management needs to train their employees better!

No wait for dinner on a Wednesday night. AYCE for $40 for adults, it's $16 for kids under 4.5ft. There is barely any side dishes (banchan) to choose from. I do appreciate they have bibimbap for AYCE. Me & my friends weren't too impressed with the meat quality. If you do get the premium meat it's an extra $7 and everyone at table has to do it so we passed. At the end they accidentally charged us 4 adults instead of 3 adults/1 child. Took an extra 10 mins to get it fixed/refunded.

One of the appetizers included in the buffet! Yum

We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon for lunch and were pleasantly surprised that it was almost empty. The interior of the restaurant was very modern and quaint, something that resembled closer to a more upscale restaurant in comparison to the area. The food came out very quickly after we ordered. My wife and ordered the chapchae to share, Kal-bi and coconut curry noodles w/ chicken. This was by far the best tasting chapchae I've had in Seattle. My wife really enjoyed the Kal-bi. It was the perfect thickness and you could eat it off the bone. It had the perfect grilled flavor and you could tell the meat had been marinated for a couple days. The coconut curry noodles was also very flavorful with little bits of peanuts. If we are ever in the area again, I'm sure we will stop by this restaurant again to try the other menu items.

Coming to food, we ordered the signatures directly without any appetizers. Bulgogi and Soul Tang - Bulgogi wasn't uniformly warm/hot and there were few pieces which was cold. The soul tang was very bland for our taste; expected some flavors, which left us disappointed. Green tea was good. The guy who served us was good, until we noticed chopsticks on other tables and not ours. Overall it wasn't a great experience dining here.

Dang I almost never…read morereview the same place twice. And if I do, it's probably to lower the rating, not increase it. I never would've come here again by myself lol. But this place is waaaaayyyy better than before. Am I crazy? I almost wanted to give this five stars. According to my mom, they have a newer chef that's really good? I believe it. If my memory serves me correctly, is the business here also better than before? We came on a Tuesday, but the place was fairly packed. Rice - I hate it when American-Asian places give you tiny amount of rice on a plate. This is a generous amount in a bowl. This is correct, and I love it. They did still give us these awkward rectangular plates for all the Americans that are gonna transfer stuff to it, but I'm not using that so I tossed mine to the side. Lol. The texture is also immaculate. Bok choy - This is such a simple vegetable to cook yet so many places screw it up. This is perfectly cooked. My only complaint is they should've separated the individual leaves more. Coconut shrimp - Great texture and savoriness and tastes like a heart attack, like it should. Dragon roll - Pretty good. It came with a liberal amount of wasabi and pickled ginger, which I also like. Sweet and sour pork ribs - I feel like this is less common because the type of person that would order sweet and sour something would not want to deal with bones. This was tasty, although I would've put more spices on it of course. Blackberry margarita was also good.

It didn't blow our minds at the time, but it was good and worth going back to for sure. Tonight, we went back again, and holy cow, I can't say enough about the quality and the value and how much they've improved over the last year. Maria was our server and she was perfect in her service and her recommendations. Friendly, attentive, and just all around a great server. First, we tried the Potstickers (per Maria's suggestion) which came with six large doughy pillows filled with pork goodness and served with a soy and scallion sauce. Delectable. We then had the Red Dragon roll, which was spicy and savory with all the right textures and flavors. SO good. Shrimp, avocado, spicy tuna, tempura, yum. Finally, we had the Mongolian Beef, which while a bit salty (the soy), was made with delicious tender cuts of beef and large fresh spring onions and was some of the best I've had. AND, the Honey Walnut Prawns which were HANDS DOWN the best I've ever had period. Sweet, but not overly so, with ample sauce but not swimming in it, perfectly cooked and still crisp battered prawns, of perfect size, and served hot out of the pan. Ridiculously amazing! SO good. I'm so glad we gave Journeys East another go around. Tulalip has always had good restaurants, but over the last two years, they have really outdone themselves. Highly, highly recommend this spot in particular, even if it takes a bit of driving to get there. 100% worth imt. 5 star service and cuisine. Please note that they do not take reservations on weekends, but on this Saturday night, we were seated within 30 minutes which is exactly what we were quoted.

In the past, I've seen Yelpers complain about a restaurant intentionally changing its name to wipe its review history. This seems like the opposite case, where maybe it SHOULD have a new page. Because aside from the name "Jade Fusion," nothing remains of the place I reviewed 6 years ago. The food and menu are completely different. The decorations are different. The lighting is different. The bar is so nice, and I'm not sure there was even a bar before. This is definitely one of the better bibimbap I've had in the U.S. The flavors combine perfectly. The kimchi and gochujang were generous. The rice is just slightly crispy every couple bites as long as you mix right away. If I had to complain about something, the texture of the bulgogi could've been even better. The wings are fantastic. Sometimes, the drumette part gets dry, but these were still so soft and juicy. I also got to try the tom kha. Obviously, it's not that spicy, but I found the creamy flavor to be really well-tuned and addictive. A very pleasant surprise. Five stars.

I asked for the buffet but wasn't really clear what other options were and got a small bowl of egg drop soup while waiting for my food to cook which was delicious. The water was served in a nice big bottle which was a nice touch. When my food was ready off the line it was boxed up as if I was a to go order which wasn't a big deal but the way they handled that made me feel like I did something wrong, it was just weird lol For my lunch I did noodles and a bunch of veggies with beef and chicken, and used the signs on the line for what sauces and condiments to add. It had a great flavor, the noodles got a bit overcooked though. I love how many veggies there were to choose from. The whole plate was missing that iconic char that Mongolian grill is known for though. The cooks were both on their phones when I walked up and seemed generally disengaged with the job and I feel like if they gave a bit more effort the food would have been amazing. Overall great, and I'd go back again for sure.

We were wrong- We ordered the all you could eat meals but only went through once- My husband and I did not finish our first plate as for one of us it seemed off. My son said his was ok but he also could not finish and wanted to take it home. Due to policy they would not allow us to take his plate home saying it must be eaten in store. We offered for his uneaten portion to be weighed and we would pay the cost they refused and said this would be thrown away and he would have to make a whole new plate to be weighed and then pay. He did and it was an additional 37 dollars on top of a well over 100 dollar bills i paid for 3 lunches and then another bill my spouse paid for egg rolls. To make matters worse the egg rolls we ordered they didnt have and instead she just brought out spring rolls with no apology or refund and said we have these here we ran out of what you ordered. Another important thing to note is we were not offered the complimentary soup, salad or ice cream that has always come with it in the past. So the cost was not as great as what we thought. No signage anywhere noting this change. In the past this same owner had been very friendly and always offered us to take home our remaining food without cost but today for whatever reason decided differently. Couple this with the unfriendly demeanor and not giving us what we ordered makes us returning unlikely now. Unfortunate as this was once a favorite spot but for 3 people and close to 200 not worth it. * One important thing to note per their policy. If you choose the weigh option and not all you can eat. They charge atleast 11.99 plus a lb- The rice weighs heavy as does the noodles. A normal size take out plate will easily run you close to 40 dollars. *Now it also appears you may need to ask directly for the complimentary salad, soup and ice cream as it was not just offered. 7 years ago when we started coming this place was great and the owner seemed friendly but today it was as if she did not know us and the prices and service were both poor. I guess covid or other economic changes made this a place that the changes make it a no go now.
