BBQ Chung Dam - Los Angeles BBQ 청담 LA

They have a special $25 that comes with a self serve bar items! You definitely get a lot for $25. The meat was delicious we got brisket and bulgogi and it was 10/10. I also got my bean pasta stew that's also included in the special =)

We went for the $19.99 Happy Hour lunch. Probably an introductory price but they have other pricing levels with more options. Ours only had (4) options BUT had full access to the Salad Bar and Raw Bar. Those offered a wealth of selections that you would normally wait for at other AYCE KBBQ places. Be aware that service requires at least 2 people and all party members must agree to the same service level, which makes sense. Also, an automatic 18% gratuity is added to the bill. There is valet parking in a small lot, or street parking in the surrounding neighborhood. I would visit again. Left quite full and sated.

The girlfriend is Korean and well versed in the kbbq offerings in LA. We searched all over online and found this place - only opened six months and decided to try it out! I also love Korean barbecue very much, and this place was overall an exceptional experience and value! You get 2 hours for all you can eat, with 4 tiers of meats available to order. - we went with option C - and you can also have unlimited meats at the cold bar - something I’ve never before seen at kbbq! The quality and flavor was awesome across the board - Definitely order the Wagyu Otoro - it’s on the C set but delicious and unexpectedly tasty! We came midday Valentine’s Day so it wasn’t too busy - but the service was great - with them bringing dishes we should try, turning and cooking our meats, and just being a pleasant addition to the meal! Jackie was our server and was amazing! We will definitely be back - don’t miss out on this spot for your next kbbq indulgence!

Beautiful setup! This place is spacious. The food is tasty. Their side bars are huge and always changing. The items available to cook are different than most kbbq places.

✨If you find pure joy in an endless AYCE Korean BBQ meal and love a great deal, then you have to check out the best Happy Hour dining experience in LA at BBQ Chung Dam in Koreatown. For $19.99 per person on weekdays from 11am to 4pm, you will get choice cuts of meat like brisket, honeycomb black pork and beef belly with a self serve bar of salad, fried treats, hot dishes and all the marinated meats

BBQ Chung Dam has an amazing selection of meats, with the excellent addition of a "salad" bar that also has other cuts that you can grab at your own convenience. There are 4 price tiers, ranging from $28.88 for all day menu, all the way to $78.88 for the most premium selection of meat cuts, including Wagyu. The server was always attentive, on top of things, and changing our grill regularly, and he even treated us to three (one for each one of us) nice, small portions of free vanilla ice cream when he brought the check (at no cost!). That was a very nice touch that can go a long way with leaving a lasting impression with customers, at almost no additional overhead cost to restaurants themselves. There is also valet parking for the mega convenient price of 3 bucks and you can even use Venmo to pay if you don't have cash on you. Overall a solid experience right in the heart of KTown, where the competition in terms of KBBQ places is quite fierce. Despite all that, this place stood out to me as one of the best options.

We came here for a late lunch and ordered the Wagyue AYCE option. And it is truly all you can eat without any limit! The wagyue cuts were all good and fresh with beautiful marbles. We ordered many rounds until we absolutely cannot eat any more….. And I was worried that they may not serve us the premium cut after the first round. But I was wrong! Despite so many rounds, the quality of meat never changed! They are just soooooo gooood. And the friendly and thoughtful service perfectly complimented the premium meat! I can only say that every time I pause and wanted help, a helpful service person will be popping up to help us cut our meat to our liking and refill everything for us and change out the grill! I didn’t even get a chance to check if there is a help button on our table, because the waiters and waitresses are observing our needs so they just appeared before I ask for anything ! This is not a fancy restaurant. It is more like a very big family restaurant. But the freshness of the food and the attentive service are no less than any top notch joint!

An excellent place for Korean BBQ. Considering I’m totally new to the Korean scene this was such a good place to start. Not only was the wagyu menu excellent value for money, but I was also greeted by the owner of the restaurant and his father (Jin and Moon respectively). Having been in the business for what I understood to be 25 years he could tell I was totally inexperienced and came over and helped me out by showing me what to do, expertly and elegantly cutting the meat in front of me and even showing me around the salad bar. Excellent dining experience and a must for any meat lovers👌

Absolutely fantastic Korean BBQ. The meat was fresh and well-marinated, with generous portions and a great variety. The staff was attentive and quick to help with grilling or refills. side dishes were flavorful and constantly replenished. Clean environment, good ventilation, and a traditional yet welcoming atmosphere. Definitely worth the visit.

Service is amazing the servers, especially Ted are so nice and are constantly checking up to make sure we had everything we need. The prices are great. The staff is so friendly they really make the experience.

I've been to this restaurant twice now and both times have been such a great experience. Aaron and Jackie are ones that I specifically remember because of their spectactular service. The food here is also pretty good and affordable. It's honestly the best AYCE KBBQ in ktown that I've had. The ambience in the restaraunt is pretty standard. This is my go-to KBBQ restaurant at the moment. 10/10

BBQ Chung Dam is hands down one of the best Korean BBQ spots I've been to in LA, and at $19.99 for happy hour AYCE, it's an unbelievable deal. The quality of the meats is top-notch, perfectly marbled, and served fresh for you to grill right at the table. Every bite is juicy, flavorful, and just melts in your mouth. What really sets this place apart is the amazing salad bar area. It's not just your typical sides they've got seasonal fruit, tteokbokki, glass noodles, and so much more. It's like a buffet of Korean comfort food and fresh bites to balance out all the BBQ goodness. The service is fast, friendly, and attentive. Your grill never runs cold, and your plates never stay empty for long. The vibe is lively, making it perfect for a night out with friends or a casual date spot. If you're in Koreatown and craving authentic Korean BBQ with unbeatable value, BBQ Chung Dam is a must-visit. Trust me, you'll leave stuffed, happy, and already planning your next trip back.

BBQ Chung Dam (Los Angeles and Garden Grove) 18% automatic gratuity: This restaurant adds an 18% gratuity to the bill, but it's labeled as a "service fee". Potential for double tipping: Some patrons have expressed concerns about this labeling, as it can lead to confusion and potentially cause customers to tip a second time on the "tip" line, effectively paying twice. Automatic gratuity for large parties: The restaurant's policy states that an 18% gratuity is automatically added for parties of 6 or more. Single diner supplement: A note by management indicates a $10 supplement for single diners.

Hehe back for seconds! :) came around closing on a Friday night and valet was $3 parking with cash or $4 on Venmo. Plenty of seating inside, clean tables, and spacious. The meat quality was great again (beef tongue, boneless short ribs) and service was attentive and quick! The self serve bar was lacking which is probably because they were closing soon, but had plenty of fresh fruits and sweet watermelon! They also had yummy corn cheese this time.

Food was solid for the price of their happy hour lunch special! A 15% tip was included already for their happy hour which makes it easier so you don't have to do all the math! Service was hella good too because of how Aaron's hospitality was! Definitely will be back again since it's close by as well!

My new favorite kbbq spot!! My friend and I came for dinner and got the $25 all day special and wow did we get our moneys worth. My friend got the steamed egg for $1.99 and she said it was worth it. I loved the beef belly and my friend loved the honeycomb pork belly. There is so much meat selection at the DIY station. We really liked the bulgogi. I reeeally enjoyed the braised pork ribs (the brown sauce one, red was just okay). I like that the restaurant did not blast music so we actually can have a conversation. Oh boy was service fast!! Everyone was ON IT. Parking is $3 for valet but we managed to find free parking on the street. We will be back!!!

Pro: The food is good, and the service is top-notch. Con: When we get the bill, we realize why the service is so good. They automatically add an 18% gratuity but label it as a "service fee." This can easily mislead unsuspecting customers who don't read the fine print on the menu, causing them to tip again on the additional "tip" line. I always tip, so I don't mind that it's added automatically, but the way it's labeled and presented. Essentially charging twice. Feels very shady.

One of the best KBBQ experiences I've had in a while! The meat quality was top-notch -- juicy, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. We ordered wagyu course and it was so juicy, buttery, it just melts in your mouth. I really liked the wagyu ribeye, that was my favorite! The ribeye really stands out in my opinion. Every bite was a chef's kiss. What really made the experience even better was Gina's service. She was super attentive, kind, and made sure we had everything we needed without even having to ask. Her energy was so warm and welcoming -- you can tell she genuinely cares about her guests. I liked how she was always smiling everytime she can to our table! Highly recommend coming here if you're craving delicious KBBQ and amazing service. Will definitely be back!

An absurd amount of food to fill our bellies, for sure! Parking is a small lot, valet for $3. This location is huge inside with plenty of seating. The restaurant is clean enough, with cute decor. Staff is kinda friendly, kinda not. Skip the buffet pre-cooked foods, they're not good and really just space fillers. We opted for the premium option and went hammy on all of the premium meats which were delicious. Definitely stick to the premium cuts. The pan chan were good. The strawberry soju tastes like candy.

Not impressed with this place at all. We came here for dinner and opted for tier C. We ordered the beef belly, brisket, rib finger, marinated galbi, non marinated galbi, ribeye and more. We also got bulgogi from the raw meat bar. Everything seemed low quality. The rib finger, usually one of my favorite, was so tough and chewy even when we cooked it medium rare. The bulgogi had this weird yellow stuff all over it. I thought it was chopped garlic at first but apparently it wasn't. Even after cooked, it was this bright yellow color. Very weird. The only meat that was decent was the marinated galbi and even then it was just okay at best. I was also surprised that their banchan wasn't good especially the kimchi. Definitely not worth it. There are a lot of better Kbbq spots in the area with better quality and similar pricing.

All the foods were tasty. Unlike other AYCE BBQ places where they serve you the meat at their pace, this is a "true" AYCE place where you can bring any foods you like at your own pace with no limit. The service was good and prompt, and they were very attentive and took away empty plates as soon as possible.

Came in on a Sunday afternoon thinking it would be packed but they had enough tables ready to go! The service was quick with our host and Gina & Jackie our servers were quick with our food and drink orders. Glad I came here, and NEED to try their $19.99 happy hour soon!

A pretty mid AYCE KBBQ option in Ktown in my opinion. I was enticed to come here upon seeing the ads for a $25.99 AYCE all-day special all over social media. I came around 9pm on Wednesday and upon arriving and the staff told me they will close the kitchen at 9:50pm. My party was a little hesitant at first, but we decided to quickly dine here as we were hungry. We saw this place was open until 11pm online which is why we decided to come so late. If it's clearly stated when the kitchen closes, that would've made the logistical planning a lot more seamless. The interior and seating was decent. The booth seating was comfortable. The worst part for me was the self-serve food bar. I get that it's towards the end of the day, but having stale foods out in the open for consumption is unacceptable. The fried foods like the churros and fried shrimp were all stale and hard to chew. It was not pleasant. It's as if they have been sitting out for a while. The only decent things were the japchae which was pretty tasty and the short ribs. As for the ordered meats, they were standard and good. I liked the beef belly the best. I also liked all the beef meats like the brisket and short blade. However, the thick-cut pork belly my group received was mostly fat which we didn't like. The small intestines also weren't the most appetizing. The staff were pretty friendly. As for parking, there's a free parking lot out front with ample spots which was nice. Due to this experience, I'm not sure if I would visit again, but maybe the experience is better earlier in the day.

I came to try out the all day special. It was really good by far. Like the brisket, and beef belly. Great BBQ place ! Service is awesome, Aaron was always attentive to us. Definitely coming back!!!

Korean BBQ Chung Dam is a huge indoor dining space with outdoor patio for those who want better fresh air circulation. There are AYCE set menus differently priced based on A) Wagyū (wah ghee yu), B) Prime Grade beef, C) Choice Grade beef with options to choose all kinds of meat. We chose D) during AYCE Happy Hour 11am-4pm, weekday only excluding Holidays for $19.99/person. There are only 4 choices of freshly cut meat, 2 beef & 2 pork, but of good quality. Banchan: Wongbok/Napa cabbage Gimchi; Oi/cucumber Gimchi; Rice wrappers; Daikon Gimchi; Sweet Potato cubes braised in sweet, light soy sauce; Fish terrine braised in sweet soy sauce. The AYCE Bar is also an option with a lot of marinated meats of pork, beef, chicken, and even shrimp. Cooked foods like fried Mandu dumplings, Tempura shrimp, fried chicken, braised shortrib of beef or pork, etc. Fresh green salad, fruits to refresh the palate. Theoretical time limit of 2 hours if the restaurant is full of waiting customers, but we arrived at 3pm on a Thursday and stayed till 5:30pm. We still could savour a complimentary mini cup of ice cream since Chung Dam was still quiet before the dinner rush. The meat quality was adequate, and at $20....such a deal! The waiters here are quick and efficient. The only catch....Two order minimum which means 2 people unless you want to pay twice which defeats the purpose of a good deal. 4+ stars PS Just saw a notice by Chung Dam management that single diners have to pay a $10 supplement.

My husband and I are currently visiting from Hawaii and found one of the best Korean bbq spots in LA! So glad that this place had such great parking and with friendly valet attendants to assist with your car. Joining the waitlist was quick and easy as well as being seated. While waiting, there are also cute little photo props at the front. Aaron, Jason, Ryan, Lalo and the rest of the staff members are so friendly and are always checking up on us to make sure if we are okay or if we need anything. Not only are there so many side options at the bar but meat options as well! Still can't believe we found a place that serves beef belly and thinly sliced pork belly which we LOVE!

Very fast service and great selection of food to choose from. There's different levels to choose from with allows for different budgets ranging from $32 to $68. We went with option C for $40 because it has the cuts we enjoy: brisket, tongue, finger, gambi, octopus, and ribeye. The service was very fast, we got what we ordered within a few minutes. And the servers checked in on us frequently to remove used plates and put in more orders when we needed. The items at the self serve bar were great! I enjoyed the ribs and veggies from there. At the end, we got a scoop of ice cream which was included. The restaurant is clean and spacious. With private parking lot. Definitely recommend this place!

Chung Dam was amazing! The food was fresh and delicious, and the service from Eric was outstanding. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had the best KBBQ experience. Highly recommend!

Quite a good option for AYCE KBBQ! Valet parking is available in the lot, otherwise there is street parking, but it can be difficult to find. The banchans were delicious and there is also a self service bar with marinated meat, salad, and fried food sides. The service was friendly and quick, our server checked on us plenty of times and was very attentive. We went with the Wagyu Omakase menu and the meat was pretty good quality. Our favorites were the Wagyu Ribeye, Wagyu Short Rib, and Wagyu Otoro. Overall, it was a great dining experience and we were stuffed afterwards. I would come back if I'm in the mood for ayce kbbq!

It was our first time coming here. They have a great Happy Hour from 11-4 for $19.99. The total ends up being like $26 with the service charge and it comes with the self bar which has so many options. The meat was great, our favorite was the brisket, it was so yummy. The ambiance was nice, the place is big. The service was fast and attentive. Will be coming back!

i've been to this place several times. Because it's quality is sooo goood!! My favorite is All day special for its price you get so much. i love there Soybean paste soup. All the foods are overall flavorful. service everytime top notch no doubt. Shout out to Aaron and Ryan. Thank you for amazing service. Place is very clean and wonderful.

First time at BBQ Chung Dam, and wow, this place did not disappoint! If you're in K-Town and craving some solid Korean BBQ, this is a must-visit. Very spacious, the staff is friendly and super helpful, which made the whole experience even better. The banchan (side dishes) were plentiful and fresh at the salad bar which had a lot of options and dishes. Everything tasted great, and the grill setup was fantastic, they grill for you as they walk by to ensure the meats cooked up just right but also respect your preferences. Definitely a place to come back to, especially if you're looking for a tasty BBQ experience. Can't wait for round two!

Monday, April 21, lunch visit. Thank you Yelpers for letting me know that there is a parking lot. However, there is no free parking unless you park on the street. Valet parking fees during 11am - 4 pm lunch ($2) and during dinner hours ($3). I couldn't confirm profane music as it sounded like K-pop playing in the restaurant. I used the Yelp app to enter their wait-list but we got there just before noon and it wasn't needed. There were plenty of tables but the main section was filled with customers by the time we were done. I was having a working lunch so I didn't have hours to spend having AYCE KBBQ $20 lunch special (M-F). I will have to try it again to know what to expect. Perhaps next time do not eat half a plate of salad and only go for the proteins. The service was good. The grill was changed out several times as we cooked our food. We were asked several times if we wanted to order additional premium meats from the kitchen. Even if we didn't order premium, the regular selection at the bar was decent. There was a raw bar of salad, fruit, marinaded meats, and shrimp. There was also a hot bar with prepped food such as fried rice, glass noodles, wings, short ribs. I didn't enjoy the two wings as they didn't taste good in my opinion. The beef short ribs were delicious though.

I had a great experience at Chung Dam! My friends and I got the B option for $54 ish per person ($213 for 3 of us, tip included). We honestly could have gotten the C option though, because our favorite things weren't even on the B menu lol. We loved the spicy pork, which was at the bar, and I personally loved the braised beef ribs, which were also at the bar. The other options at the bar were great, and the service was excellent. They were really attentive and changed our grill constantly. I can't wait to go back and eat more of the meats on the C menu! Overall I couldn't believe how big the restaurant was, really nice restroom as well. Parking was valet or street, and luckily I found a street parking close by!

Love coming to Chung Dam! First time at this location and Aaron greeted us with a warm welcome. Great quality cuts of meat and service!

This was my second visit to Chungdam BBQ, and I'm honestly more impressed than the first time -- which I didn't think was possible! I came back for their unbeatable $19.99 Happy Hour, and once again, it delivered big time. Our male server this time was just excellent. Super attentive, friendly without being overbearing, and completely on top of everything -- grill changes, side dishes, drinks... it all flowed so smoothly. You could tell he was experienced and really cared about the guest experience. The meats were just as high quality as before. The pork belly, brisket, and bulgogi were all fresh, flavorful, and grilled up perfectly. It honestly doesn't feel like "happy hour" food -- the quality is more like full-price dinner service. And let's talk about the self-bar again: cold noodles, soup, dumplings -- amazing as always. But what really made me smile was that fruit section. Fresh pineapple, watermelon, melon, and orange slices? YES PLEASE. It's such a nice touch after eating all the grilled meats -- refreshing, sweet, and surprisingly satisfying. The place was clean, organized, and even when it got a bit busy, service never slowed down. I came back because I had a great experience the first time... and now I'm convinced I'll be a regular. If you're even thinking about trying it, go -- and don't miss the fruit.

We were across the street at LAces and saw their sign for 24.99 AYCE, looked on yelp and saw all the great reviews. I rarely opt for the cheapest AYCE menu, we went for the $39.99 option so galbi and ribeye's were included. For me the meat was good but everything else felt short. The banchans weren't my favorite, the salad bar could be better, even the dipping sauces were so-so. i think my favorite thing of the night was the soybean soup, it was delicious. I still thought for the $40 option, the menu was limited - I'm referring to the dishes outside of the meats. They didn't offer rice paper which is something I really like to have when I have kbbq. They did have a buffet section with dishes like fried rice, chicken wings, sweet and sour pork, etc., Service was good. The staff was friendly and meat came out quickly. They validate for free parking in both the lots to their right (supermarket lot) and left (california bldg) - make sure to snap a picture of your license plate, they provide validation by putting your car info into the parking system.

Came to BBQ Chung Dam for a Korean BBQ fix after seeing some solid reviews. We went with the B dining option, and honestly, for the price, we've had better elsewhere. The Wagyu Otoro and prime ribeye were easily the highlights--super flavorful and tender. But the Wagyu brisket didn't quite hit the mark. It was decent, but didn't have the melt-in-your-mouth quality we've experienced at other spots that serve Wagyu. The self-serve area was underwhelming, and the other meat options like the pork belly were just okay. Garlic shrimp wasn't anything to write home about either. If we do come back, it would be to try the A dining option and sample more of their Wagyu cuts, since that seemed to be the strongest part of the meal. That being said, for the price, there are definitely better quality and more affordable KBBQ spots in K-Town that offer both better overall value and stronger Wagyu options.

In this economy, an affordable yet good quality all-you-can-eat KBBQ deal is rare. BBQ Chungdam in Koreatown is THE spot to check out! The restaurant features an expansive clean interior, great service, and a nice salad bar where you can just go grab meat from at any time even with the cheapest $19.99 AYCE menu. We really enjoyed the thinly sliced pork belly and choice brisket! Pork belly did not have any excess fat so it could be grilled to perfection--crispy and golden brown. While the choice brisket had such a beautiful marbling that I didn't expect to be able to get with this affordable menu. By far, BBQ Chungdam's $19.99 menu has the best quality for price ratio for Korean AYCE BBQ. Can't wait to come back for the wagyu omakase menu Plus, they have a free parking lot!

On Tuesday dinner, I would like to share my whole awesome experience. We came for the Choice Special during lunch and loved how generous and balanced the set was. From Beef Finger Meat to Top Blade and Choice Brisket, everything was perfectly portioned and fresh. Aaron took care of us, and he was incredibly smooth -- never rushed, always attentive. He checked in at the right times, kept the grill clean, and made sure our self-bar items stayed full without us even noticing. Super calm energy that made our meal feel relaxed and easy. Great food, great price, and Aaron's service just made it effortless. Definitely recommend for a casual but premium K-BBQ lunch.

AYCE BBQ Chung Dam LA has now Opened in Koreatown! With seating for up to 250 guests, it's perfect for large gatherings, weddings, and tour events. Enjoy the affordable $31.99 all-day menu or indulge in premium wagyu cuts. HAPPY HOUR SPECIAL $19.99 from 11 am to 4pm Monday through Friday. Free parking before 4pm. Valet parking available after 4pm in LA.

A friend had recommended Chung Dam after he had visited after their recent opening. We also read the great reviews and decided to head over for lunch. The restaurant is pretty big with lots of tables and seating available. They have three different all you can eat options at different price points. The pricing is pretty on par with the average AYCE kbbq. I felt greatly deceived by the photos on Yelp because the quality of meats that we received were nowhere close. We had to ask them to take meat back several times because there was more fat than meat (photo attached). The staff were also very rude and made condescending comments. Based on my experience, I would highly HIGHLY recommend that you go elsewhere for kbbq.

When you're craving for kbbq, this is a must! Parking can be tight but there is valet seevicd available. The place is clean, huge, ang nive to be in. There are AYCE choices depending on what you eat. The salad bar in itself already has everything from salad to meat to cooked food such as chicken, rice cakes, glass noodles, rice, & fruits. Service is really good and they do not skimp on meat portions. Price tag is fair. What is not to like about this place? Absolutely nothing.

Pretty good KBBQ. we got the C option. We tried the beef belly, brisket, LA galbi, marinated beef, pork belly, and some of the beef from the raw bar. Service was attentive. They have happy hours price for $20 m-f until 4pm which seems like a good deal. I wish they had more seafood options. For the price, there are some better KBBQ options in KTOWN. I would come back but it wouldn't be my first choice.

Food 4/5: banchan were all ok, but kimchi was extraordinary. Wagyu was good but i guess it's a bit greasy in general. Fresh. Service 5/5 Ambiance is kbbq giant diner. Recommend for families!

I found this place on Yelp and with good reviews, I decided to visit and guess what? It was worth the HYPE. I got Happy Hour today with my family. And if you don't know how it works then just ask the server and they will explain you how it works!! Starting with Beef belly and brisket it was both pretty tasty and my favorite was the salad bar meats. They got some nice Marinated Beef bulgogi and spicy bulgogi to bring on your table and cook It's phenomenal. Place is clean and server Aaron, so kind and professional. Next time I will be back for another menu

My first time here at Chung dam, all you can eat bbq place in middle of ktown, and let me tell you, for the price I got, the quality and the taste are both great! I really enjoyed their brisket and bulgogi, my two favorites! For the ambience, the place is huge and have a lot of seatings, great for big parties and big families. The service here is top notch! I was greeted by Ryan and served by Gina! Shout out to them for excellent service, they are attentive and kind. They also have a self bar where you can grab all the side goodies, unlimited. The restroom was also big and super clean which I liked. I really enjoyed my meal here, come check this place out!

I was looking over yelp on this place I decided to check it out. As I walked in, I got seated right away. Servers were welcoming and place felt really spacious and clean. I got an all day special. Let me tell you that it's pretty bomb. Meats are right on point to have freshness. Spicy beef at the salad bar was my favorite. Shoutout to server Aaron for making my day. His service was top notch.

#thankyougina best bbq ever service was A1 our server was a sweetheart and made sure we were ok

We swung by Chung Dam for a lunch break and ordered the Choice Special, and let me just say -- that was no ordinary lunch. The portions were generous, the Brisket, Top Blade, and Finger Meat were all super flavorful, and the self-bar was stacked with goodies like spicy rice cake and cold noodles. But the real win was our server, Ted & Aaron! They had this super chill, professional vibe -- never rushed us, always made sure our sides were refreshed, and kept the grill situation clean without making a big fuss. They had that subtle kind of service that just makes everything run smoothly behind the scenes. What I loved most was how easy the whole experience felt. We didn't have to ask for much because Ted & Aaron were already a few steps ahead. It felt premium, but not stuffy -- like lunch with class. Definitely recommend if you want a relaxing but top-quality K-BBQ experience. Definitely a return customer that's for sure!

First time at this Korean restaurant and we love it. Will be back for sure and bring my family... This will be my go to Korean bbq.... If you're looking to elevate your K-BBQ experience, Chungdam BBQ is a must-visit. Their Wagyu Omakase Set is on another level -- featuring buttery cuts like Wagyu Ribeye, Chuck Flap, and Beef Skirt that melt in your mouth. Jackie helped us with our selection and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. The Self Bar was a gourmet bonus, with cold noodles, Korean pancakes, and more. This is where quality and service come together.

We just found our new spot for Korean BBQ. This place has everything...wear ur elastic pants. Lol Aaron was very attentive and gave great service. This was our first time and we will be back. Very spacious and bathroom was very cleans Everyone was friendly and helpful.

Trying out the all day special for the first time on Saturday lunch. I wanted to share my experience cuz it was bomb. I like the menu D because you get so much meats at such an affordable prices. It's really hard to find such deal in LA where you can feed yourself load of good quality meat at low cost. Good meat and excellent service from servers. Ambience very good vibe Overall Great experience!!! Aaron and Jackie made the dining a blast. Definitely recommend.

$20 ayce in this economy?? YES PLEASE On weekdays from 11am to 4pm, they have a happy hour ayce and I finally to try it. Parking: valet or street Inside: it's a pretty big restaurant and it's clean and comfortable. We were greeted with smiles and friendliness. Our server was very helpful and polite. Asked us if it was our first time. She ran through how the ayce works and I love how they have a self bar with more food! The quality is actually pretty good for a more affordable tier. My favorite was honeycomb pork and the beef belly. I would recommend this place not only for the happy hour but for the amount of food you can get for the money you pay. Will definitely come back soon!

Food: 3/5 We ordered the $25 menu and of course for $25 you cannot expect the best quality meat. The brisket was kind of chewy and the beef belly was about average but mainly fat. Pork belly was also pretty standard. the side items are pretty good if you are into that. Service: 5/5 This might actually be the best part about this place, but the service is fast, but this might be specific to the time we went but it was pretty empty when we were there. Ambiance: 4.5/5 Simple and nothing fancy but there is nothing wrong with that. Everything was clean and roomy. I would come again for a group event since they are fast and cheap, but if I am looking for really good food, this might not be the place. I know a couple kbbq restaurants with similar prices that taste better, but they definitely aren't as roomy and catering for large parties so this restaurant definitely has a place in the market.

Si no has probado el Happy Hour en BBQ Chung Dam, de verdad te estás perdiendo algo increíble. Por solo $19.99, recibes carne de alta calidad y acceso completo a su barra libre de acompañamientos calientes. Este Happy Hour es una auténtica ganga. La carne estaba súper fresca y bien marinada, especialmente el cerdo picante y el panceta de cerdo marinada. Todo se cocinó perfectamente en la parrilla y el sabor era espectacular. La barra libre tenía de todo: fideos de cristal, empanaditas fritas, pollo al ajo soya, arroz frito y mucho más. ¡Impresiona que todo esto esté incluido en un precio tan bajo! Nuestro mesero, Aaron, fue excelente. Muy atento, amable y siempre pendiente de que tuviéramos todo lo que necesitábamos, incluso cambiando la parrilla sin que lo pidiéramos. El servicio realmente hace la diferencia. Definitivamente voy a volver. Por el precio, la calidad y el trato, es uno de los mejores lugares de KBBQ en Koreatown.

I don't usually write reviews, but after having Aaron and Ryan tag-team our table for a Friday lunch, I had to. These two are like the Jordan + Pippen of Korean BBQ service. Aaron made sure the meat came out in the right order, helped with grilling, and kept the vibe calm. Meanwhile, Ryan was on fire with drink refills, side dishes, and somehow still found time to joke around with us. We had the All Day Special, and it was perfect for 3 people -- solid quality and more than enough food. With this kind of service, Chungdam isn't just a K-BBQ spot... it's the spot. Awesome service from Aaron! I love you Aaron. Highly recommend Aaron. :) seriously has unlimited aura! Unlimited like the meat he provides. I love you
