The 15 Best Korean Barbecue Restaurants In Los Angeles
"K-Team BBQ in Koreatown comes from the same owners as Park’s, but it fills a different and very useful niche. Here you'll find a premium KBBQ experience where cuts are roughly half the price of Park’s and the ambiance is more lively, without feeling like you're in a smoke-filled nightclub. Focus on the pork cuts from their a la carte menu (there’s beef, too, but you’re here for piggy). The on-top-of-it staff grills marbled pork jowl until it chars around the edges, and slices of pork belly (thick or thin) that render in delicious pools of fat. Meats come with a nice spread for ssam wrapping, including sweet perilla leaf, raw garlic, and spicy soybean paste. Balance the pork onslaught with a bowl of chilled acorn noodles that come in handy halfway through this hearty meal." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
