"Zajang Grill in the Richmond is a spacious maze of tables, tons of TVs, and overhead hoods painted with mountain ranges. Oh, and meat. Lots of meat. The AYCE Korean BBQ spot, which is covered in striking red, black, and white murals, is ideal for any last-minute group dinners revolving around well-marinated bulgogi and thick cuts of miso pork belly. It’s easy to walk right in and pack a group around a tabletop grill, and you’ll spend your allotted 90 minutes ($40.99 a head) throwing back soju and getting endless refills of pretty solid banchan, seaweed salad, and gyoza. Plus, you get a little scoop of ice cream at the end, which is the ideal finisher before you head home and promptly knock out on the couch. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
