Fully intended to eat somewhere else for Mother's Day but the wait was too long so we came across this place. There was no wait but plenty of people dining. Our party of 5 was seated almost right away. If you've ever been to Baekjeong, it's pretty similar. They have sets you can choose from and the quality of the meats are really premium. Someone comes and grills all of your meat for you as well. I really liked the banchan selection too. I would consider it a little on the pricier side but the quality is worth it. I'm glad we came here and I will definitely be back! read more

Really high quality meat and good service Side dishes were higher quality/abundant Mmmmmm cheesy corn read more

I've been meaning to write this review for a while because I absolutely love Yangmani! The quality of the meat is outstanding--always juicy, tender, and full of flavor. Our go-to is the garlic galbi, which is an absolute must-try. I've been to many Korean BBQ spots, but this one easily stands out as my favorite. The atmosphere is always lively and fun, especially when I come here with my sister--it's become one of our favorite spots to enjoy a great meal together. The service truly takes the experience to the next level. Eunice was our cook, and she was incredible--everything was prepared perfectly, and she was so warm, attentive, and genuinely kind throughout our visit. We also had the pleasure of meeting Sohee and John, who were both so welcoming and friendly. It's rare to find a place that excels in both food and service like this. Five stars for the amazing food--and honestly, I'd give another five just for the exceptional service. We'll definitely keep coming back! read more

If you're a high-quality meat lover, you need to check out Yangmani. Not all-you-can-eat--this is premium Korean BBQ. As soon as you walk in, you'll see a fridge showcasing their dry-aged meats. Started with some thoughtful banchan (even includes quail egg ), and we added steamed egg. We also loved the sauces--especially the matcha salt, We had the 14-day dry-aged ribeye and the wagyu boneless short rib. Both were top-tier quality. Everything is grilled for you--perfectly done. Also loved their signature mushrooms If you're into marinated meat, definitely go for the boneless short rib. Last but not least, we always finish with bibimbap and tofu soup for the complete Korean BBQ experience. IG: socalhkfoodies read more

Heard about Yangmani through a YouTuber and was feeling splurge-y, so found ourselves here on a Friday evening at about 5:30 pm. Located in the Diamond Plaza, which has a lot of other shops and restaurants, it can be a while to find a parking spot but that's the good thing about eating dinner early. Upon stepping into the restaurant, there was a dry aging fridge on the right showing the various aged stages of their ribeye. Legit! Only two tables or so were occupied at this time. We were to asked to wait while they set up our table. When we were then seated, we found a number of sauces and a variety of banchans laid out for us, ready to enjoy. So remember we felt splurge-ey? And yes, yes we did. We ordered the Chef's Cut Combo ($148), which came with 5 different cuts of beef, including the dry aged ribeye and the mega galbi. The combo also I bodied corn cheese and steamed eye - yum! Service is on point and everything is cooked at the table for you. All you have to do is eat and enjoy. The banchan that was particularly unexpected and delicious was the cilantro salad (sorry cilantro haters!). Overall, absolutely delicious and premium quality. The quality comes with the price tag - after tax and tip, the meal was almost $200 for two people. Pricey but something worth splurging for every now and then. Life is short, enjoy and eat up! read more

Yangmani - Korean Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Recently, I've been on a mission to find the top Korean BBQ spots in Los Angeles, and I kept seeing Yangmani all over TikTok being hyped as one of the best. So I decided to give it a try. To avoid traffic, I waited until things died down and got there around 9 PM on a Saturday. In hindsight, that might've been a mistake. They close at 11, so I figured it would be fine.. but it didn't turn out that way. The staff were friendly and seated us right away, but it definitely felt like they were rushing to close. I ordered the chef's cut combo, which comes with corn cheese, steamed egg, got the spicy cold noodles, soft tofu soup, lettuce wraps, and rice. Right off the bat, I was disappointed to hear they were out of rice paper, which I personally love wrapping meat with. It also felt like service started slipping very quickly.. our server forgot our rice and lettuce wraps. By the time I asked again, the kitchen had already closed. She did manage to get us one bowl of rice, but it still wasn't ideal. As for the food, the meat itself was decent, but it honestly felt like we got whatever was left in the kitchen. The quality and portions weren't what I expected, especially given the hype. The steamed egg was another letdown.. omg it was dry, whereas I'm used to it being soft and fluffy. The banchan selection was pretty mid as well. On top of that, we felt rushed the entire time. Staff were already cleaning nearby tables, and the smell of cleaning spray while eating was pretty unpleasant. Overall, this place felt overhyped to me. Nothing really stood out, and I don't see myself coming back. My boyfriend even said he felt like it wasn't worth the money, which was disappointing. Maybe the experience would've been better if we came earlier.. but honestly, I'm not convinced it would make a huge difference. read more

The servers were working together to take care of customers from different tables. (to BBQ meet) but one of the server always came to my table to turn up the flame too high. Lots of the meat were burned. read more

As a party of 4, we ordered 2 of the combos and it was enough to leave us stuffed. The quality of the meat is good and the servers cook it to perfection. We also ordered two bottles of sake that paired perfectly with the meal. I would likely come here for a more special occasion and it's more expensive than other kbbq spots but it's definitely worth trying once! read more

This place is a certified banger. I got the Chang Combo, which serves organ meats (intestine, stomach), and it blew my expectations out of the water. If a person doesn't eat organ meat and I had to select a spot to have them try it, it'd be here. On top of that, there's a bonkers of an amount of ban chan sides. Finish the meal off with scorched rice soup. What a way to finish. Servers will cook and cut for you so you only have to worry about eating. This place replaced the skewer spot I liked, but I'll welcome this replacement with open arms. Doesn't look too different from the prior skewer set up. Same slightly warm lighting and wood accents on grey brick. Cool vibes. Can't wait to come back. read more

I came here after hearing pretty good reviews and Recs from friends. When we walked in the area was clean and the host was friendly. Parking was easy to find on a weekday night. We ended up getting the variety combo for 2 of us. The sides were okay but the one that stood out the most was probably the Mac salad. Everything else wasn't super memorable. The combo also came with steamed egg and cheese corn. The cheese corn wasn't that sweet and lacked flavor. The lack of flavor was continuous with the sauces for the meats too. The first meat we tried was the brisket and honestly I felt like it just tasted like any meat you would get at an AYCE restaurant. The standout of the combo was probably the bulgogi since it was marinated and had some sort of flavor. I think the meats would all be better if the dipping sauce wasn't so bland. It was nice that the server cooked for us, so service was pretty good. I was just not wowed by the meats considering it was $110 for both of us for that combo. With that amount I feel like ayce waygu would've been more worth it. read more

Overall an amazing korean BBQ place. I would realistically place it at a 4.5 stars as a KBBQ place and a 5 star a of a KBBQ place in Rowland heights. The place is similar to Baekjeong and has sets of meat and side dishes. The quality of the meats were amazing and the workers also help you cook it. The side dishes were unlimited and the other foods that come with the sets such as the steamed eggs were delicious. Highly recommend for somebody who it looking for KBBQ that has high quality meats as they do not provide an AYCE menu. read more

Visited Yangmani on a Sunday for dinner with a group of friends and we had an absolute blast! We showed up without a reservation and were able to be seated pretty quickly, but the restaurant started filling up shortly afterwards. We got the variety combo and the chef cut combo and the meats were simply so delicious and high quality- I was dreaming about how good this meal was days afterwards!! Besides their delicious meats, they offer a generous number of banchan which is always a delight. Service was excellent - our server cut and cooked our meats perfectly. At the end of your meal, they offer each person a small pineapple slushie shot, which is a fun way to end the meal. We had such a wonderful time and I'll certainly be recommending Yangmani as one of my favorite KBBQ spots in the LA area! read more

Food was good but used to be way better, back when they first opened they had the best side dishes and also did this bulgogi stew at the very end yet they stopped a while back. Also wish the egg and corn cheese were unlimited like the rest of the side dishes but overall meat quality was great. read more

came to yangmani on feb 15th (sunday) for an early CNY dinner, fullerton rd. was extremely backed up, and getting into diamond plaza was even harder. i called the restaurant to let them know i might be a bit late to my reservation, and they said they would hold my spot for 10 minutes. i luckily got there right at the tenth minute, and spoke to the host. he had mentioned he was already prepping the table for someone else (hmm...), but since i had made it just in time, it was mine. my party & i ordered two set dinners, one around ~$110 and the other ~$150. i especially liked the side dishes and that they offer free refills. the meat was very tender, the side dishes were delicious, and the service was quick even though the restaurant was extremely busy. just be aware that you will smell very strongly of kbbq when you leave. compared to the ktown location, i'd say this one beats it by a long shot. overall, i had a great time and a great experience at yangmani rowland heights, definitely one of my favorite kbbq spots. read more

If you're not Korean, don't come here. They treat other people differently. The food was just ok. Portions were small. My boys and I ordered variety combo. It was not enough for us. Our server barely checked on us or cleaned up our table or refilled any sides dishes. He just put the meat on our grill and left. We had to cook the meat by ourselves to avoid them to overcooked. Maybe he saw we cooked our meat, he never checked on us and went to our table anymore. BUT he served his Korean customers very well and always checked on them. BTW there was a little bug on the sauce. Be careful and watch before you dig in your sauce. This is our first time and last time. Don't waste money! Don't come if you're not Korean. P.S we went here on Sunday 3 PM. They were not busy at all. read more

- i've only come here during lunch rush, so i can't speak about the wait times since weekday lunch rushes there's maybe 2-3 other parties. the service is always fast and i love all the side dishes they give. first time coming to a place that served marinated quail eggs, corn cheese, and steamed egg as a side dish with no extra charge! - my favorite stinky doenjjang jjigae place. albeit it's been a while so this review is a little dated, but you can smell the soup coming out from a mile away !! it's packed with brisket and beans not for the faint of nose - i personally love the beef brisket here but i can see why it would be a miss to some. they give a lot of beef brisket, but it's definitely on the leaner side. they do thick beef tongue which can also be a 50/50 of being very chewy/hard to eat. the bulgogi was the standout, soft, not too sweet read more

Recently became one of my fav restaurants for gopchang. Surpassingly the marinated raw crab was good too. Will definitely bring friends back next time read more

We had the beef combination and the poor combination. They have a nice assortment of dry aged meats. Very nice interesting flavor. I almost felt like it was a little cheesy from the aging, which was a flavor I never had before. The flavors of the mushroom were also very fresh and meaty. They burn their logo onto a mushroom and they grill in front of you. read more

As good as I remembered. Not an all you can eat place, but for what you pay and the type of service you're given, I would absolutely recommend. I'm definitely growing out of my ayce spots, and typically going for quality meats and tentative service. Yangmi will give you that experience, so the time spent cooking can be spent enjoying and conversing. My part y of 4 got two combo, which was absolutely a lot of food, but it was for a birthday, so why not. I really like their chang combo, if you're big on intestines, and their chefs combo, which ironically is chefs kiss. lol Parking is soooooo hard, be prepared to park far, cause you'll will waiting or fighting so an open spot. read more

Took really really long for us to get a table since we had a party of 10. We were seated as 5 and 5 next to each otherm The combos with all the thick cut meats are not worth if you have a big group. Its expensive and you get a small amount of food, split between 5. I thought they were whatever. The large galbi bone was really good though. I also like the combo a? With the thin slices of meat. My friend was raving about the tofu soup because she got it the other week but I thought it was a 3/5 it was pretty salty. Banchans 4.5/5 The first couple of times we came here was alot better than this time. read more

If you want the full service, and quality meats with delicious side dishes, yangmani is the place. It's worth the splurge once in awhile from your usually ayce bbq joints because you can taste the difference. Jowl, Brisket, and the Mega Galbi are all top notch. read more

This place has really great meats and flavors! Service was amazing; servers were actually the one cooking your meats! Only thing is don't expect an all you can eat experience similar to Thirsty Cow. It's also a little pricey. We came here due to wait time at Thirsty Cow. The 4 of us shared the a combo which I felt wasn't enough - def only good for 2 people. read more

The positive reviews are legit! Quality meats, unique sides and they cook the cuts for you! 10/10 TIP: We RSVP'd in advance and got seated right upon entering. The ordering was quick and the banchan (side dishes) and meats can out quickly after that. Definitely recommend RSVP for this perk. We ordered Mega Kalbi, Pork Belly and Pork Jowl. It came with assorted cold side dishes, corn cheese and steamed egg. - Mega Kalbi was super flavor-packed and juicy - Pork Jowl was bouncy and fresh (my personal favorite) - Pork Belly was okay. It felt drier than the other meats, but was still good. (Nothing special?) I'd try a different meat next time. Everything tasted freshly made and clean. That was my biggest takeaway. I felt healthy while eating KBBQ -- a rarity! read more

Not too busy on a Friday evening around 6pm and you can put your name down via Yelp! Ordered the Premium Chef's Cut combo, beef tongue, and brisket. Highly recommend the Galbi and skirt steak. These cuts stood out in quality and taste. I don't recommend the ribeye cap, beef tongue, or brisket. The prices are outrageous for the quality especially a la carte. There's no difference in quality to what you can get at AYCE kbbq. The side dishes were great. Some stood outs include the garlic leaves kimchi, marinated beef bits, and cucumber salad. The servers cook for you so that was a nice bonus. The only issue was that they were spread out thin. I think there were 3 servers for the entire restaurant. It affected the speed of us getting refills on side dishes and order extras. Would recommend & would come back! read more

My best friend came back to Los Angeles, and we decided to go for Korean BBQ in Rowland Heights. It was seriously amazing!

Hands down my favorite Korean BBQ restaurant. I've tried several Korean BBQ spots in the area, and Yangmani stands out with the best quality of meat and service. The first time, we ordered the Variety Combo, and the pork jowl was easily my favorite -- incredibly tender and literally melts in your mouth. We went with 3 adults and 1 child and still had leftovers. The second visit, we ordered the Premium Chef's Cut Combo for 4 adults and 1 child, and it was both filling and delicious. While I wasn't personally a fan of the à la carte beef tongue, everything else was excellent. The combo options are perfect for family-style dining, and I highly recommend them if you're coming with a group. They're also very child-friendly, which was a big plus for us. Definitely a go-to spot for quality Korean BBQ. read more

The service and banchans was absolutely on par cause my mom raved and ranted about this place. The meat quality was very good and marbling was great. As a Korean I approve of this place check it out for yourself. read more

Yangmani is definitely one of the best KBBQ in town. We had a great time and service was excellent. The server will explain to you how to try different sauce with the type of meat and they cook it perfectly. I like the overall dinning experience as everyone is really friendly and nice. It gives you a really warm feeling and reminds me of the BBQ that I had in Seoul. Thanks again for the hospitality and we look forward on coming back again. read more

Tried this KBBQ spot recently and it was actually so good. If you like beef, get the Chef's Cut Combo. The meat quality was really fresh and you can tell -- super tender and flavorful once it hits the grill. Good variety too, so it doesn't feel repetitive. They refill the banchan for free, which is always a plus. The combo also comes with cheesy corn and steamed egg, and both were solid -- especially the steamed egg, really soft and fluffy. If you're more into pork, they have pork jowl and pork belly. Both were good cuts and grilled up nicely. Service was friendly and quick with changing out the grill. Overall just a really satisfying meal. Would come back. read more

This was my first time here and I will say that I liked the place and food overall. We got there around opening time and were seated right away. We had a good size party (8 people) and had a table with two grills. The decor was nice and you feel like you're at a nice restaurant. We ordered a couple variety combos and added some beef intestine. The food is cooked at your table by the server. They do a good job of cooking and getting the next meat on the grill once the previous one is done. The food overall was pretty good, and the only reason I am giving 4 stars is that there was no steamed egg and the intestines were okay. read more

We had a really great dining experience. The atmosphere wasn't loud like other AYCE KBBQ. We could actually have a conversation. The staff are all welcoming and professional while providing great service. The menu was clear and presentation of the meats was very beautifully plated. As the server cooked the meats, they were very attentive and great care was taken in cooking the meats to our desired doneness. We ordered two of the highest tiered combo to share and there was more than enough food for five people. All the meats were all very well seasoned. All the accompanying sides and sauces were tasty and plentiful. Halfway through our meal, we decided this will be our new go-to KBBQ spot. read more
