Best Restaurants for Korean Food and Barbecue in San Diego | Eater San Diego

"The only Korean barbecue restaurant in the area that cooks tableside over a charcoal grill, DJK Korean BBQ (short for Dae Jang Keum) is old-school in the best possible way. Set in the corner of a tiny strip mall with minimal parking, the low-ceiling restaurant has tight booths for cozy seating. Opt for the combo meals to try a variety of meats, such as bulgogi, chicken, and soybean paste soup. Not all tables are set up for grilling with charcoal (some tables use propane gas instead) so it’s best to make reservations for the charcoal experience." - Helen I. Hwang
