I had such an amazing experience at Chadol! From the moment I walked in, the ambience set the tone—warm, welcoming, and stylish without being over the top. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. What really stood out was the service. Our server, Ryle, went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He was incredibly attentive, helpful in guiding us through the menu, and genuinely friendly, which made the whole meal even more enjoyable. Chadol is the kind of place where everything just comes together—the atmosphere, the food, and the people. I can’t recommend it highly enough and will definitely be coming back soon!

One of the best Korean barbecue places we’ve visited! The quality of the food was excellent, and everything came out fresh and flavorful. Our server, Andrew, was outstanding, very attentive, friendly, and made sure we always had what we needed without having to ask. The whole experience felt welcoming and enjoyable, and we’ll definitely be coming back.

Fantastic food and environment. We've been a few times since the start of the year and this place never disappoints. The all you can eat is such a good deal for the area. Don't skip the top blade and the seasoned pork jowl - they're so ridiculously tasty. All the servers have been wonderful and we've never had to wait more than 20 minutes for a table. Do be mindful that there's a huge gym around the corner so parking can be tough immediately after work when everyone goes to the gym.

Chadol is one of the better options for Korean BBQ in the Rockville area. They don't offer an AYCE option, so go in knowing that, but the quality of the meat definitely matches the prices. The menu is a bit limited, but everything they do offer is solid. The drink menu sounded creative, which convinced me to try a cocktail, but I didn’t feel like getting a second one — they look better on the menu than they actually taste. Service here can be pretty inconsistent, depending on the day and the server. It's a nice spot for pretty much any occasion — casual dinners, celebrations, or even a date night.

Chadol in Rockville is a great choice if you’re craving Korean BBQ and want to go all in.The all-you-can-eat option is absolutely worth the price, especially if you show up with a serious appetite. We ordered pork belly, spicy ramen, seasoned top blade steak (my personal favorite), soy top blade steak, soy chicken, and soybean soup. The soy chicken and soybean soup were the only items that came prepared—everything else was grilled right at the table, which added to the experience. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 for a few reasons. First, the policy that the entire table must order AYCE—even if one person prefers à la carte—feels a bit restrictive and doesn’t offer much flexibility for mixed dining preferences. Second, while understandable, the à la carte charge for leftovers beyond one order might feel a bit rigid, especially for groups trying new dishes or sharing. Lastly, I’ve had more flavorful sauces, side dishes, and garnishes at other Korean BBQ spots—these felt more basic in comparison. Still, the meat quality is solid, and it’s a fun, satisfying meal if you come hungry and plan accordingly.

This was the best korean bbq restaurant I’ve ever visited ! They offer a wide selection of foods including various meats, ramen, fried dumplings, and other side dishes included in the all you can eat menu. The portions were remarkable ! Additionally, they offer exotic cocktails; I highly recommend the screwbar strawberry cocktail. I was impressed with the spacious atmosphere that seats many parties comfortably. Our server Lally had a friendly, helpful demeanor making for an even better experience here at Chadol. The service was 10/10, highly recommend.

We visited based on reviews, but were disappointed. Our group of 10 opted for a la carte, as recommended by the waiter. Unfortunately, the tiny sides and average Korean BBQ didn't impress. Also what's with the tiny drops of dipping sauce? I could not believe how little sauce there was! Friendly service, but not enough to make up for the lackluster food. Wouldn't recommend

Chadol provides a satisfying all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ experience with quality meats and a clean, modern vibe. The meat was fresh and well-seasoned — especially enjoyed the brisket. Service was really good as well. The price is definitely on the higher end compared to other AYCE spots, so it’s more of a treat-yourself experience than a casual weekday dinner.

Had an amazing time at Chadol! Our waitress, Hailey, was awesome-- she was informative and stopped by frequently to check in on us. We choose the all you can eat option and weren't disappointed. The japchae and beef bulgogi were my favorites! We'll definitely be coming back!

AYCE KBBQ! If you get the AYCE option, you must get the pork jawl seasoned, the curry pork belly, the sirloin. This place handled our party of 18 so well. They kept delivering food out, was very timely and overall a great experience. There are some more unique options, between 18 people we had one large table and then two smaller ones. It was crazy how much we went through, but the sides and food were good. It turned out to be roughly 67 per person including all the drinks and additional sides people added. The seasoned meats were really good. I liked the curry pork belly over the regular pork belly but that's also because the curry one was a bit thinner sliced, the regular port belly felt a little too fatty. I would come back here again. It was a good experience overall.

We came here with a large party of approximately 20 to celebrate a birthday. We were able to make a reservation in advance. The majority of the group must be there to be seated. We did the all you can eat (AYCE) dinner option. For AYCE, basic banchan was included, but some sides that I'm used to being included cost extra - the steamed egg and corn-cheese are my favorites but are a la carte. There are other appetizers that are included to make up for it - salad, french fries, ramen (comes in spicy and mild), fried dumplings, soy bean soup, and white rice. The banchan was plentiful - service was helpful to refill them on request - but they were slow to bring out the meats, which is the main event at a KBBQ place. There was a variety of meats to choose from, and you will leave stuffed. I enjoyed the brisket, top blade steak, bulgogi, curry pork belly, and pork jowl. They also have shrimp and chicken options. We are capable of cooking our own meats, but I was surprised at how hands-off they were. Our cooking tray got blackened pretty quickly, and service never came to wipe or replace them. They have a good ventilation system in place - after eating dinner, you don't leave the place smelling like KBBQ. All things considered, when dealing with such a large group, service was good overall. There are many KBBQ options to choose from in Rockville, and Chadol is a solid choice.

Yesterday we had a group of seven and one infant at dinner at Chadol and everyone left full of smiles, yes, even the baby. There is an all you can eat menu available, but my group opted for a la carte. We ordered 2 orders of pork jowl, spicy porkbelly, marinated short rib (galbi), boneless prime short rib galbi, and brisket. Service was great, our server constantly checked up on us and ensured we had everything we needed. Everything was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the pork jowl, that is a cut from a pigs cheek, it has a nice texture to it and when crispy. You can never go wrong with the boneless prime short rib galbi, as it was done cooking it disappeared from the grill extremely fast . Alongside the meat we ordered we were provided with banchan, korean side dishes such as kimchi, mashed potatoes, salad. These are traditionally provided in korean meals. If you are considering dinner for a large group, korean bbq is a really good choice, and chadol an even better choice.

We had a reservation for 7 but they canceled it because someone dropped out last minute, which is fair but then we had to wait 50 minutes before we could get seated and they kept telling us 10 minutes. Better meat quality than probably 50% of other all you can eat Korean barbecue places, but their service was so slow. At six people at a table they limited us to three plate plates per order at a time and we had to finish "a good amount of it" before we could order again according to our server. Our server told us to get the chicken and I have never gotten chicken at KBBQ. It was middle of the road but better than other places. Still, don't get it. I was still hungry and they made sure to kick us out after 90 minutes. They are very strict with the time constraint and they were heavily understaffed to be able to get our 3-plate maximum order at a time. I have never eaten more than half a bowl of rice at an all you can eat Korean barbecue, but I finished my rice because I was still hungry. They did not refill the banchan even. I really wanted to love this place because it had so many high ratings, but it just wasn't it, ESPECIALLY FOR 50+ per person (auto gratuity and tax included). It was frustrating.

I'm going to sound like such a weirdo for saying this, but the vibes are incredibly sensual. This is the perfect place to bring a date for Korean. The seating, the decor, even the menu is beautiful. The lighting is dim and oh so pretty. Now let's get to the make or break...the food. We ordered AYCE dinner, and opted for the brisket and top blade steak. Exceptional quality as the meat tasted good without sauce (just a little salt/pepper). We were brought a pink sauce (absolutely delicious) and another that was sweet/sour. The portions weren't large but the perfect amount, and our waiter was kind enough to bring me a bowl of plain lettuce. I'm one of those people who loves to eat meat with an obscene amount of lettuce. I also ordered a bowl of the ramen and would give it a solid 2/5. It tasted like packaged ramen from the Asian store. Not bad at all, but I was expecting something with a little extra jazz. The banchan we tried wasn't amazing, but it wasn't bad. I'm unsure as to what each one is called, so this will be based on description. The potatoes and pickled radish were good, but on the sweeter side. I did not like the fish cakes and the kimchi was so/so. This is personal preference, as I'm sure someone else might say they had the perfect bite. I enjoyed the rice. We didn't order drinks but I was tempted to, especially when waiters walked by carrying one. They were beautifully crafted. My only "complaint"? They didn't have a sauce bar, but this isn't a place that would look good with a sauce bar. It would throw off the entire vibe, so instead a range of sauces to offer would make up for it. They could also have some black vinegar on hand. Overall, a solid 4/5. Lovely experience :) **PS- Parking is a bit tight, so factor in time for that or get dropped off. The gym is directly across. ***PPS- There might be an AYCE option, but it's not the best for big back activities. It's more medium back. Slightly broad back. Back with a little extra squish.

Tuesday 4/8/2025 I've had this spot on my list for a while, and I always see this spot when I go to the One Life Rockville gym. My good friend Jared recommended this spot for dinner, so I moved it to the top of the list. I don't go to Korean bbq spots very often (this is maybe my 2nd or 3rd time), so I'd say I'm relatively newer to it. We got the all-you-can-eat dinner for $41.51, where you had unlimited servings to choose from meats like beef, chicken, and pork, sides, and seafood. The service was good: the waitress gave us recommendations and explained what everything was. You have a 90-minute limit for your time at the spot, and fortunately, we were able to stay for 3 hours with no problem, so shoutout to our waitress. I tried nearly everything except for the chicken, as the waitress and my friend both said it wasn't worth it. The beef was the best, the pork was a mixed experience, and the seafood: shrimp was alright, but I did not enjoy the experience of deshelling it. I made tiers of every item I had and ranked them based on whether I would get them again: Yeah: - Dumpling (had 3x orders of it) - white rice - Spicy brisket (had 2x orders of it) - Seasoned top blade steak - Brisket - Bulgogi - Spicy bulgogi Maybe: - Pork bulgogi - Soy top blade steak - Spicy top blade steak Nah: - Korean ramen - Korean spicy ramen - Soy bean soup - Seasoned pork chowl - Pork shoulder - Regular pork belly - Curry pork belly - Butter whole shrimp - Spicy butter garlic shrimp - Butter garlic shrimp I tend to feel overwhelmed at these types of spots, but now that I actually know what I like at Korean bbq spots, I can definitely see myself coming back and enjoying the experience even more.

We visited Chadol in Rockville for Korean BBQ on a Friday night. They offer AYCE and a la carte options (even some that aren't listed on the menu). Service: The wait was 35-45 minutes to get seated, which was expected for a busy Friday night. When we sat down at 9 PM, the staff clearly mentioned that they close in an hour--fair enough, since we weren't doing AYCE. Food: The meat quality looked great, but the grill was a major issue. Even on the lowest setting, it was way too hot, burning everything before we could cook it properly. It really took away from the experience. The banchan (side dishes) were delicious. We kept asking for more. Overall, I'd be open to trying it again, but only if they can better control the grill heat.

My favorite kbbq spot in the area! The banchan was delicious and the servers were really nice and would refill when we finished them. I guess only complaint would be the salad dressing because it tasted more like bibim sauce or something that would go on a noodle or marinate meat, but that's just a personal preference. The beef quality was amazing (usually I keep my expectations low for AYCE) but I was thoroughly impressed. And gotta finish with the spicy ramen! Had a great time and will definitely be back

4.5/5 but gave a 4 since I can't do 1/2 Went here for a small birthday celebration on a Monday evening as walk-in since we were able to make reservations. Located in a shopping center with ample free parking. We got the AYCE options which was slightly on the pricier side. The brisket and top blade steak were the best. Our server Lynn was very attentive and constantly checked on us, helped us cook, and very prompted with bringing us whatever we needed. I found it interesting that whatever grill they had caused us they not needing to change the grill at all and their range was working really well. Rare that we leave KBBQ not smelling like meat. I wasn't blown away but would definitely come back for another kbbq dinner.

I honestly wasn't impressed by the meat quality, but the staff were very friendly. The food came out a little bit slow becuase they were understaffed. The panchan was mid and the wait was long. The parking lots were packed. I would recommend going elsewhere.

My friends and I got here around 7:30 on a Tuesday evening, and there was a wait of up to 30 minutes. It was definitely the dinner rush because it slowed down a lot about an hour later. Chadol has a great selection of quality meats and options to pick from AYCE or a la carte which is great! We picked the AYCE option and loved everything we ordered. You can also order a soup and a few sides like fried dumplings too. Sauces were good. I'm not sure what the pink sauce was, but it was sweet. Service was great too and very helpful if we had any questions about the menu. The parking situation was kind of a nightmare. You would think a lot that big would provide plenty of parking, but it took a while to keep circling around to find a spot fyi.

Enjoyed my meal, but suffered from really slow service. Hire more staff if the restaurant is packed! We went a long time without anybody stopping by our table to deliver food or take orders. Meat was solid nonetheless so will be down to go when it's quieter, but given its location, it'll be packed most days.

I went to Chadol for a weeknight dinner and was not disappointed. I ordered from the all you can eat menu and got pork belly, brisket, and shrimp among other things. At most all you can eat Korean BBQ places you end up sacrificing quality of meat for the all you can eat option, but not at Chadol! Chadol has both a wide selection, good quality cuts of meat and a decent price. The service was great with the waiter asking whether we have had Korean BBQ before and accessing our comfort with cooking ourselves. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and the dining room isn't loud enough that you can't hear the people you're sitting with. Overall, I think Chadol is one of the best all you can eat Korean BBQ restaurants in the area.

I came here with a very large group, and to be honest I probably won't come back mainly because of the service. They limit you to a two hour all you can eat experience, but most of the time is spent waiting for the meat to actually come out. I was surprised because this was my third time coming here and I was pretty letdown. I still think it deserves four stars because the food was undeniably delicious. However, when it comes to all you can eat Korean barbecue, I'd much rather go somewhere else where the service is fast.

I've been coming back here more often as it is really close to my home. Before they had ala carte pricing, but now, they do also offer an AYCE offering. Guess they have to compete with all of the other AYCE places, especially the hot pot places (so many in Rockville!) that has bbq grills too. Sad to see Honey Pig vacate Montgomery County, but glad to be coming back here for my kbbq fix. The AYCE menu is fine, except its missing the kalbi. For that, we do order it separately. The lighting here is much brighter now, which is most welcomed and the service here has vastly improved through out these years. The quality of meats and the marinade for their galbi you can't beat. I wish they brought back the larger soups and egg dish, as both come out in such small bowls. At least you get a hot bowl for the egg dish, unlike Iron Age, where you have to cook it on the grill (occupies some valuable space!).

KBBQ is everywhere these days and that includes what I'll call north Rockville. We don't usually frequent Rockville for KBBQ but meeting family for dinner and they want AYCE. Personally I prefer a la carte as the quality of the meat is much better but hey, let's see what the AYCE is like here. I'd say Chadol is a bit more upscale then the typical KBBQ joints with lots of exposed pipes, stainless steel, K-Pop music blasting etc. Definitely better for families. As for the AYCE it's pretty much the usual. You can choose from different beef, pork amd chicken cuts as well as shrimp. Personally I prefer the pork jowl, the marinated beef and the brisket. The beef cuts could be of better quality but hey it's par for the course. The shrimp has garlic butter on it and the shell. You don't cook the shrimp on the grill but leave it in the container and steam it...weird. Lastly, our server never cooked any of the meats. He brought out the food and set it in the table. I usually don't really care about this but Chadol tacks on a 20% tip to the bill (we had a party of 8) so I'm not sure why we tip 20%?? Yeah, not too happy about that. On the positive side, I thought the Bibim Nayongmyeon was tasty amd the Haemul Pajeon was fried nicely with a good amount of seafood. Perhaps a la carte ordering is the way to go. 3-3.5 stars is the verdict.

We came on a Friday afternoon at 4 pm when they first opened for the day. We Choose the "all you can eat" option but you also have the option to order a la carte. TONS of meat choices but also tons of great sides like fried dumplings, fries, and korean ramen. There was also a lot of banchan (korean side dishes) to get full from. Saramsh was our waiter and he was excellent. Very quick with our orders and always came back to check up on us and the korean bbq. He always made us aware that it was ready to eat or if the meat needed a few more minutes because it was not yet ready. Meat quality was superb as expected and I would recommend the brisket, spicy chicken, and pork belly. You can also get mochi and ice cream as Dessert. It's honestly our favorite korean bbq place. It's a little on the pricey side compared to other Kbbq places but it's also a little more upscale for being in the Bethesda/Rockville area.

Chadol offers combos of chadol, pork, beef, and even a premium set. You can also order a la carte, soups, and various sides. We ordered: +Chadol (aka, brisket) - this had a great ratio of the meat and the fat! +Ggot Ssahl (aka, boneless short rib) - think of this is like a Korean version of kobe; very well marbled +Yang Myum Galbi )aka, marinated short rib) - great house marinade, and I was surprised at how thick-cut and large of a portion it was from one rib! The banchans were pretty tasty, especially the broccoli, the mashed potatoes, and the peanuts, and they were all refillable. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, with a great sense of humor. I just wished that they didn't press on us in regards to how they believe the temperature of the meats should be cooked and kept on the grill consistently. We had asked our preference and stated what we would like the doneness of each meat would be, multiple times, but it was blatantly ignored. We'd probably ask to cook the meat ourselves the next time. They do have an online reservation system, so take advantage of that. Plenty of parking in the shared plaza lot. +premium cuts of meats +friendly staff +be firm with your requests of the meats' temperature +online reservations available +plenty of parking in the shared plaza lot

Did you know that Chadol has All You Can Eat KBBQ? And if you did know... why didn't you tell me!? One of my friends actually threw in a link to a video in our group chat that was spotlighting the Chadol in DC (which was also news to me), and I was like.... uhhh we have one of those in Rockville! Yes... it doesn't have a conveyor belt... but it does certainly have AYCE kbbq which is obviously the most important part. Lunch is $30 Dinner is $40 The selection is pretty great too. For Beef you can choose; Brisket Bulgogi Spicy Bulgogi Top Blade Seasoned/soy/spicy top blade Pork: Pork Belly Seasoned, spicy, curry Pork Belly Pork Shoulder Pork Bulgogi Pork Jowl/ Seasoned Pork Jowl. Then they have some chicken options, some seafood (which are all three shrimp), and it comes with white rice and soy bean soup. All the meats we had were fantastic -living up to Chadol's more premium quality meat selection. The pieces of pork belly were sooo thiccccccc and good. I also got some of the soy chicken (cooked back in the kitchen) which was absolutely delicious. All banchan was delish although I kinda wish they had fishcake ( a favorite of mine), but truly everything was wonderful including the service and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to go back.

Possibly my fav kbbq places in the DMV! Disclaimer I've only gotten the a la carte so can't speak to the AYCE. To start, the seafood pancake here is the best seafood pancake I've ever had in my life. The seafood is cooked to tender perfection and there's plenty in every bite. The corn cheese is also incredible and a must get with every meal. Moving on to the meat, we love the short rib and brisket here. We usually get the set menu that has the two short ribs in it. My friends thought the marinated short rib may be a bit sweet compared to other places but I love it. You can always get the unmarinated version and it's incredible as well. I love the banchan here and the endless refills they bring you (although service can be slow as they are quite busy). In addition the drinks here are super fruity and fun to try. Such good vibes and a great place to hang with friends!

The first time I visited Chadol was before they introduced their AYCE menu, but I got to experience things I still love about them like their super friendly service, the cool interior, their banchan, and their meat quality. I've said it before and I do need to say it again -- I am not great at discerning high quality meat. That being said, the meats at Chadol were really nice. They are named for their fatty beef brisket and we love starting an AYCE meal with this quick-to-cook and tender option. Everything we get here is delicious, and we also really appreciate their tasty banchan side dishes and accoutrements for wrapping ssam -- lettuce, pickled radish wraps, doenjang jjigae, and of course rice. They're also very good about bring ssamjang and garlic and jalapenos if you so desire. The service here is really nice! We've always had very friendly servers who are happy to chat with us and recommend drinks, meats, and music if you ask. This is one of the things that sets Chadol apart in Maryland for me, but I will warn that if you don't like chatting with your servers there is a small chance you might find them possibly too friendly, especially if the restaurant isn't too busy. We are really glad to have Chadol as an option in this area because it's now our go-to for Korean BBQ here, and we love being able to get quality AYCE in a nice atmosphere. We have been back and we will be back.

My husband and I have been to Chadol a few times now and it's been a consistently good experience. The AYCE ($42 including tax) offers enough variety of meats, with our favorites being the brisket which is thin and isn't overly fatty, and the soy top blade steak which is juicy and tender. The AYCE also includes the standard bulgogi, a few flavors of pork belly, some seafood dishes, and unlimited banchan side dishes + salad. Soybean soup is included, however, steamed egg costs $7 extra. We've always had decent service, although sometimes our server can seem really busy and a bit flustered. The ambiance is nice with the restaurant being relatively new and clean, and the seating is spacious enough for large parties. Parking is free right outside Chadol, and if the lot directly in front gets too crowded, there are also additional parking lots across the street. I also recommend that large parties take advantage of the reservation system and there is also a virtual waiting list on Yelp.

We used to frequent Chadol on a minimum weekly basis but hadn't been in a while after a bad experience. When we first started going to Chadol a couple of years ago, it was a stand out among Korean BBQ restaurants in MoCo, but I feel like they've since gone downhill. The meat portions have gotten smaller and fattier (not better marbling, but large chunks of fat), while prices continue to increase. The servers used to all be great, but there seems to have been a good amount of turnover. Given how my wife and I went so frequently, we know exactly how much of something we eat, when I asked for that amount to save us and the serve the trouble of asking/bringing the side multiple times, I was told kind of rudely that I'd be given it when I finish the initial amount. I ended up having to wait multiple times during my meal for refills of sauce and sides. No real issues with ambiance, although I do wish they would occasionally clean the layers of grease on the overhead light fixtures.

Been to Chadol twice now. Both times have not been disappointed. Service is great and staff are very attentive and do most of the cooking for you instead of you having to take charge yourself at the table. All the food is seasoned so well; especially, the meats! Even my mom is impressed and she's hard to please. Chadol is a bit on the pricey side but for the quality of meat you get, it can't be eat. There's plenty of seating and having gone on a Saturday night and at lunch during the week, we have always been seated right away. High recommend giving this restaurant a try!

This is an update to a prior review; came here for dinner and to celebrate my husband's bday two weeks ago. Had a slightly different experience. Ambiance was still nice, the place is clean and there is no smoke, which is great. This was the first time for husband and daughter. I'll start by saying, our server was new so he had to check on everything. Although that didn't bother us that much, he kept constantly coming over to cook our food, after we said we wanted to grill the meats ourselves and that was annoying. At one point he even shut off the grill. Not sure why, but we ended up having to turn it back on again. Then we had to ask for water and sides, several times, before he brought them. We went with the AYCE basic, the meat options were decent. My husband also ordered shrimp and although they looked big and beautifully cooked. He was very disappointed to see that they weren't cleaned and so he couldn't eat any of them. That was disappointing since he was the only eating that at the table and since it was his bday. We wish there were more sides that we actually liked. The sauces were just okay, we asked for bean paste and gochujang which were good. They should provide at least the bean paste as a usual side sauce.

Great KBBQ! I got the a la carte rather than the AYCE and the quality and quantity of the meat cannot be beat for the price. I spent around the same amount of money per person as the AYCE but was able to get a bunch of other appetizers and dishes on the size and we all left incredibly full. The Chadol premium was totally worth it!

Chadol is my go to kbbq spot in MoCo. It strikes the right balance between great quality and value. I prefer going for AYCE as I tend to stuff my face with as much food as I possibly can at kbbq. The meat quality here is excellent and the portions are solid, whether you do AYCE or the preset "For 2" or "For 4" options. The service here is friendly and attentive, something I notice is hit or miss in the more popular kbbq options in VA. I have never had a bad experience during any of the several visits I've had here. The ambiance is dark, but well lit for eating. It makes for a great date spot, family dinner or even business meetings. I really enjoy the dark decor and color choices in the restaurant. All in all, don't hesitate to give Chadol your business. You will not be disappointed!
