Hwaro 1 AYCE KBBQ & SUSHI

The server was great! Derek came quickly and made sure everything went smoothly. The food arrived fast, and everything we ordered was solid — pork belly, beef tongue, shrimp, fresh tuna and salmon rolls, avocado, and even dessert. Great value too — we spent under $60 for two people. If you're looking for a tasty, not-too-busy lunchtime spot, this place is definitely worth a visit.

This place blew me away. I’m visiting from Florida and came with friends, and we tried items from the premium menu—WOW. Every single thing was packed with flavor. I even tried dishes I’ve never had before, and they were all incredible. Even the sorbet at the end was chef’s kiss. The flavor combinations were out of this world. 10/10 experience. Highly recommend if you’re looking to treat yourself to top-tier Korean BBQ in Vegas!

Third time over my last few trips out here. Been to a bunch of KBBQ and the quality is always great, service was fast and very helpful with menu. You get soooooo much and most of it was very good. Steak 🥩and the other cuts were very tasty and tender. Love this place. 😜

So good, fast and so many meat options. Love that they have sushi you can add too. Wish they had more banchan or apps like scallion pancakes or Kimchi jjigae but we’re pleased!

Fast service, huge menu, good food. Place is a lil stuffy like all bbq places so we dont mind. Good value for money, came down to 50 bucks per pax including some soju and tips. Highly recommend!!!!

Good value for money. Pretty good meat at reasonable price. Always crowded.

First time going and enjoyed myself. Food was great the experience was pleasant and the atmosphere electric. Go by and have some fun

Walked in and didn't know they renovated! It's been a while since I came here but loved the new look. Menu been upgraded too as they added sushi and more selections. Price went up a bit, but that's expected with renovations and such. We waited less than 30 minutes to get seated, which is fast for a Saturday night. The service was great. Everything came out in a timely matter, and the employees were fast in clearing out any dishes. Never had any problems with anything. Great experience and will be back again.

First time at hwaro and the experience was absolutely incredible. our server Joshua was so nice and attentive he recommended hwaro special roll and it was the best thing. The music was good too we love it!! going back soon. 5 STARS

Jay was a great server and food was awesome. Love was ambiance of the restaurant. Drinks were very good love the mango majito.

Aw man! Service 5/5 Food 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 Cleanliness 5/5 Want Korean bbq? Want sushi? Want Tonkutsu ramen? Fries? Small apps? They got it ALL here! Wow Wow props to Hwaro! Will come back next trip! Dinner was $34.95! You can get premium meats one round per person, they have 5 kinds of meat/steaks that you only get to order once! Sushi I appreciated the smaller pieces small amount of rice! You really get to taste their food and try more items!! Loads of meats loads of selection and they really do it right here. Everyone can get what they want to eat here. Also they don't do a limit of what you order per round! You can get like 5 meats and sushi all in one round of order! They also bring out the meats fairly fast! The only item that was "aright" = not as great was the squid ball I forget what it was called all other items were 4/5 to 5/5! AND!!! They have their own Hwaro sauce. Honestly I think I dipped every single piece of grilled meat into that sauce, just so good. Tangy, sweet and fragrant. Good job Hwaro!!

This place is great! They have awesome appetizers and sesame salad and a little bit of sushi. Most awesome thing is the lunch price is 27$ and you get bbq, a hot pot, and sushi. That's a steal for me! I feel like the tables/booths is very small. There's not very many tables and it gets kind of loud. The food come out fast and the meat is fairly good. I think the pork belly wasn't that great bit the beef belly was awesome. They have ssamjang but they don't have steamed egg! That was my only disappointment. I loved the octopus and the thin sliced pork belly. What is phenomenal is that with this lunch price you get two kinds of kalbi! That's just super! My servers kept my water refilled and came around a lot to ask if I needed something. I would definitely come again for lunch!

We've been coming here for the past few years, and it's always a must on our list whenever we're in town. Hands down, this is one of the best KBBQ spots we've ever been to. Every time we're here, it's busy - from the packed parking lot to the queue outside - but they still manage to provide exceptional service. The staff is always attentive and friendl. Inside is quite spacious and could definitely accommodate larger parties The price point, meat quality, and AYCE option make it all totally worth it!

SO MUCH BETTER than your average kbbq spot!! Premium cuts of meat, quality soups, flavorful kbbq sides, and solid sushi rolls... I am that much more sad to leave Vegas and not be able to eat here. This was our last meal on the way out of Vegas and we all needed some nutritious, soothing comfort food and Hwaro for sure satisfied it all. I highly recommend the Nabe Hotpot if you're looking for a comforting clear broth to cure your hangover! Not only was the food top tier in quality and pricing, but we were also thankful for the attentive and gracious service from our host. The plaza was also easy to access and had plenty of parking at lunch time.

Best K-BQQ spot in Vegas! We came in on a holiday weekend and were seated rather quickly. They were very attentive and made sure to change the plate so our food stayed fresh! Very good food quality all around!!! It is very busy inside, but it's spacious to accommodate many parties. Will always be back here when in the mood for delicious Korean BBQ!

Went to Hwaro for the first time in forever, and never disappoint us at all everytime we go here. The modern look is very nice and sleek, gives a very nice and comfy vibe. The service was top tier as expected, shoutout to Josh for taking care of us and making our return a great one. Food was simple and great, they got all the essentials needed for KBBQ and more for those who might some extra tastes. Overall a fantastic experience, always great to come and dine at our fav spot.

It has been years since I visited this Hwaro (there is a Hwaro 2) in which their offerings have changed significantly ever since. Per their staff, they wanted to pivot towards a Japanese style offering versus Korean. Service: Made a reservation via Yelp for my family of 4. Arrived at the location when we were 3rd on the queue; called within 10 minutes. Pleasantly greeted upon entry and upon seating. Wait staff was nice and helpful. 5 of 5 stars Food/Offering: Arrived early dinner and was offered only one dining option: $33.95. We settled for the usual like the Wheel of Fortune bonus round (RSTLN E) which was bulgogi, pork belly, brisket, short rib. There were some limit 1 per person options on the menu which we ordered from as well. Usual sides you see at a KBBQ place like rice paper, kim chi, seaweed salad, etc are not offered. The food turnover during the reorder was very fast. Water refill was on point. Yuzu sorbet was tart and helped offset the grill taste in my mouth. 5 of 5 stars Overall: The place is bigger than most bbq spots that I've been to and ventilation (which matters to me) was very good; didn't smell too much like bbq upon leaving. Only gripe I have is that I'm not a fan of the 18% automatic tip for my party of just 4. For this visit, I'm ok with the 18% (probably worth 20%) but for me as a consumer, I would like to have more control of the bill. Nevertheless, I still highly recommend this place when in Vegas.

Still one of our go-to KBBQ spots after all these years. I have a good list of some of my favs, and hwaro and hwaro 2 are still on the list. Although the location can be tough to park in because of the many amazing restaurants in the area, we still like to come here for some good KBBQ. My husband and I, as well as my friends and I have come here often to have some good kbbq when we're craving or in the mood. They have a variety of options for meat and seafood, as well as banchan and other appetizers and side dishes. Their menu consists of different specialty meats which you can order at a higher AYCE price point, but I think is well worth it. The service is friendly and quite fast, noticing and offering grill changes when necessary, and constantly walking around to take your order. The space itself is medium sized and clean, which is good! I haven't had to wait too long to be seated :) overall, good standard kbbq that I can rely on when craving kbbq.

Food is good, but we got charge a grat because theres 5 of us... 3 adults and 2 toddlers. Mind u toddlers are 3 and 2years old., is that normal!!? And they just ate rice and a little bit of fries coz they are kids.. Im just disappointed and scared now to eat here

Korean BBQ and sushi are at this spot in Chinatown Las Vegas named Hwaro. This was my first time here and this was the first meal we had when I got into Vegas. We picked this place because the restaurant was open until 2:00 am. When we walked in at 12 we were seated right away and the place still had people inside enjoying a meal. The service was super quick and fast. This is an AYCE spot so you can order as much as you guys want but in a time frame of 90 mins. We tried their sushi items as well and considered them to be quite decent for an AYCE spot. The only thing I would say is some of the beef items that were seasoned with some type of sauce tasted a little bit off on flavor. Have room for dessert because the coffee affogato was not bad.

THE BEST! The servers were very polite and were always prepared to take our new orders. They were very fast with the food. They even changed our grill multiple times. The food is amazing, the steak very tasty and sushi excellent!

People wanted all u can eat and found this place. So we're here and there's plenty of parking outside. Walking in you here music playing and we were takin to our seats. You order the meat and food you want....then cook it yourself. Ordered Katsu , kalbi, beef brisket, and other stuff I have no clue what I'm eating. Food was good and we ordered a lot off the menu. Sorry I can't tell you everything I ate....i was just eating it off the grill....if your in the area swing by.

We didn't have much of a wait to be seated but the wait time for meat ordered was crazy two couples came and left and we were still waiting???They only give me a certain amount of time to eat, but we waited more time waiting for food to come to our table then we did eating anything not very acceptable. Then one of our waiters was itching so bad he has hives all over his face and arms. Not a good feeling when you're out at a restaurant Very disappointing! I won't give this location another chance

BBQ and sushi, all-you-can-eat?! What?! And they're open until 2 AM?! Amazing! We went around 10 PM on Friday. There was a wait, but it wasn't too bad, and it was totally worth it. The value for what we paid was incredible, and the quality of the meat and sushi was top-notch! I really wish this place existed in the Bay Area (although it probably couldn't due to the price being much higher). All four of us were starving, and we had a fantastic time just eating nonstop. It was so good--nothing else to say except, go try it, you won't regret it!!!

Hwaro is my go-to for Korean BBQ. Both locations are consistently great, with high quality cuts of meat that are my favorite. I'm always comparing their corn cheese and "the shit" to other places because Hwaro's is one of the better options in my opinion. We waited about 45 minutes after arriving at 9 pm, which is pretty standard, and always worth it. I love ending the meal with an affogato. The staff is kind, attentive, and always checks in to make sure everything's good. Inside is always clean and nice!

Great options on the menu for a very fair price especially for an AYCE! Food was great, servers were very friendly and the spot overall has a really nice aesthetic to it!

I havent been here in about 7 years and its good to be back. Very nice recon on the place, looking very elite. Princess attended to our needs and was definitely on top of it. Never fails. Very welcoming and warm. As far as the food, yea, that part. I can confidently say that its one of the best in the buz, for sure. Hwaro aged like fine wine.

Haven't been back since they remodeled this location. We always go to Hwaro 2. So glad my husband & I decided to try it out again. Let me say, it did not disappoint. Came around 12pm on a Monday & it wasn't busy considering it was lunch time. Our service was great provided by Chi. She was pleasant & very attentive to us. Really enjoyed her services as we didn't feel rushed or a bother (which sometimes some KBBQ places make us feel that way). The restaurant was very nice, clean & modern. We couldn't get over how different it looked & we're in awe. The food was great! Perfect cuts of meat & portions. Can't say enough good things about this visit & we already can't wait to go back! The dessert also topped us off at the end! Thank you Hwaro & Chi!

jay is greatest at hwaro all you can eat.!!! it's a must to go here. jay is the way!!!!!

We were seated within 5 min on a Monday night. Food was great, service was great. Wan the server was efficient and quick. Will definitely come back!

I had a wonderful night out at HWARO for their late night special that was about $30 bucks all you can eat! The chicken, shrimp, and all steaks options were good. I really liked the cheese corn & garlic butter. The coffee ice cream was the high light of the evening. Quick service & constantly checking on you.

Always hits the spot! This place is always busy! And in a good way! The food and service here is always amazing. I recommend this place all the time to friends and family visiting from out of state. Their sushi and KBBQ selections are what always makes me return to this place. I always leave here stuffed!

I wanna shout out our server Joshua for an amazing service. He was so patient accommodating our big party, i know it was chaotic because of how much people we had but he was so nice and sweet. Food wise the appetizers are so delicious and a lot of options! Filet mignon is the best thing ever. The only downside was the light kinda dark and we couldn't see anything, but the music is good. we def going to go back!! :))

We visited Hwaro on a busy Saturday, and like most nearby restaurants, there was a wait--but we didn't mind. The estimated wait time was 45 minutes, and we were seated in about 50 minutes, which was reasonable. I had tried calling ahead to join the waitlist, but it seemed to be in-person only. The service was good; the staff checked in at the right intervals, though at times, we had to wait for the meat to arrive--probably because we ordered in smaller portions. The menu had a great mix of BBQ meats and sushi, plus a small selection of desserts, which was a nice touch. Overall, the experience was enjoyable, and I'd come back for the food and variety.

Was having a rough day and just wanted some KBBQ. Luckily, Josh was my server and turned my day around. He was so nice and sweet and his service was quick and frequent. On top of it, the food was delicious. Will be back and asking for Josh.

This used to be the hot spot. Always busy as hell Now they've worried only about renovating the place To where the food has gotten not so good I guess it's looks better Bye bye hot spot Now we consider it a cold spot. No good Service was good

I had the pleasure to visit this all-you-can-eat Korean barbecue spot in Chinatown, Las Vegas It was phenomenal! The premium meats were incredibly delicious, and the variety ensured there was something for everyone. The sushi was fresh and expertly prepared, adding a wonderful variety to the meal. The Soju cocktails were amazing too, perfectly complementing the flavors of the food. The ambiance was lively and Chieko and her staff were attentive and friendly, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. If you're in Las Vegas and craving a memorable meal, this Korean barbecue restaurant is definitely worth checking out! Drinks: Soju cocktails: Strawberry lychee Peach sunset Korean pair Mojito Korean BBQ: Ribeye steak Filet mignon Soy honeycomb Pork toro Brisket Ribeye bulgogi Salmon carpaccio Yellowtail carpaccio Spicy pineapple steak Sweet potato Onions and oyster mushroom Sushi: Orange Blossom Crunch roll Osaka Miso salmon Nigiri: Salmon Yuzu yellowtail Hwaro special Sides: Lettuce Radish wrap Ssamjang Corn cheese Ginger Kimchi Dessert: Yozu gelato Afogato Brownie w/ ice cream

Hwaro is an AYCE KBBQ in Las Vegas. The meats started out delicious for the Premium and then as the night went on the meat just started to lower in quality. Would definitely just multiple order the top 4 meats. The Galbi was too fatty for me. The sides and cooked food were tasty. Do not sleep on the Hwaro sauce and potstickers. Well fed and happy.

Place is amazing my dad and I always go here for special occasions! Our host Joseph was very helpful with accurate waiting time! And our server Princess was wonderful! She's always making sure we needed everything we need! Altogether this place is very attentive would recommended! Food wise I love the sushi and meat combination both very well done enjoyed every bite! Love the atmosphere here!

Just ate lunch here and the food was great! Appetizers were in small portions so you wont get full and you can just order some more if you want. Sushi rolls were good (fish was fresh), nalbi hotpot was superb and the beef toro was delicious! But what brought it over the top is the great service from everyone, especially Kristine - she went above and beyond! Would highly recommend this place.

Jay took care of us today, so we're enjoyed it a lot. Also food, service and environment is so good.

as an avid KBBQ enjoyer from SoCal, i gotta check out any recommendations even out of state. Todays visit to hwaro was a great experience for near the strip asian food at a solid price for quality. Food - (7/10) Ordered the lunch special at $26 a person, which for everything it included was already a stellar price. In terms of delivery, I didn't care much for the banchan or raw fish options as nothing stood out or had flavor worth devouring. The corn cheese, bulgogi fries and KFC were solid (just wish the KFC was crunchier) and sauce options were standard (the hwaro sauce is a hit!). Most importantly, the meat was great aside from some overly chewy beef tongue. Great flavor from the toro, brisket, and especially the pineapple steak. Small ice creams of unique flavors are included, and DELICIOUS! Service (9/10) only 2 staff members on the whole floor this afternoon but they were quick with refills, getting food out, and any extras we needed. Just missed a few items we had to reorder, no issue. Ambiance (9/10) Modern, new look with upbeat trendy music (loudly) fills the restaurant and crafts an enjoyable eating experience. Always bonus points for BBQ spots that actually have good ventilation, like here. Still a bit hot inside the dining area, but it's a BBQ place in the desert can't be too bothered.

this place is great for any gathering, family gathering or business . The food is fabulous. We've been there many many times and today was especially special. Our server, Isaiah, explained the menu and the ordering process. I highly recommend for any meal, any time and you'll become a big fan. Yummy fun!

The first time we were here the meat is good. That's why we came back with some friends for dinner. But... we are a little disappointed because all.meat that we order are a bit chewy. Specially the beef tongue, kata rosu beef, and beef cut skirt. The wait time for your orders are longer than other places we've tried here in LV. The service is also slow. You also have 60min to dine, and you need to make your last call, and not 80mim. They have limited tables and may not be good for groups more than 6. Otherwise you will be seated on separate tables. The restrooms are clean though. Sorry but I really have to rate this based on the quality of food service and the place. For our dining experience, I would rate this place with 3.2

Returned here for the first time long after their closing and wow it has changed! The inside and menu have both been renewed! Unfortunately, I came in here thinking the menu would be the same as hwaro 2, but it is slightly different. On the menu, they now offer premium meats as well as sushi. The sushi was delicious and fresh! My favorite was the tiger roll. As for the meats I got the classic brisket and the skirt steak, which are my favorites. The bulogi fries and KFC were my favorite app I did try their new cocktails as well they are on the sweeter side! But very refreshing. Over all still has the taste for hwaro but the og and hwaro 2 will win me over. Cris was our server very attentive and switched the grill every-time it was needed!

Hwaro has AYCE during lunch and dinner with a variety of appetizer and sushi options. I went during lunch so I had the option to choose from the lunch or the more premium menu option, I opted for the lunch menu. The brisket, beef belly and sliced pork belly were my fave! I like the spicy marinated beef steak as it was tender and flavorful, the ribeye bulgogi was tasty as well. I'm not a fan of the beef tongue unfortunately, I usually love beef tongue but it was really chewy and tough. If you like more meat options, I highly recommend checking out the premium menu! Lots more variety and the quality is better in my opinion. Service was amazing from start to finish, attentive and friendly. The place was clean and modern!

We came in last night for a last-minute date night expecting the place to be busy, and it was. However, we had Joshua as our server and made everything seamless and smooth! Food was great! Make sure you guys get the carpaccios!

This place is disgusting. There was liquid coming down from the vents dripping on our food and drinks the whole time. We asked the server about it and he said it's just oil. And walked away. Health district needs to shut them down

So I'm very happy to have tried this KBbq joint. I really enjoy eating here now as far as meat quality I will say that I have had better but for the price you cannot beat it. I really love the service you get here. There's some special things I would recommend that do stand out if you eat here.. Here's a list of what to order 1. Order the garlic butter and the ribeye and or brisket. Dip your meats in this yummy goodness 2.garlic jalapeno beef belly,pork belly,short ribs 3.steamed egg/ I like to eat the steamed egg with rice and a bite of meat (dipped in a sauce of course) Try all the sauces sesame oil and salt, soy bean paste,house sauce is bomb too. Dip your meats and try them out it's super fun experiencing it ..have some fun with your food while cooking it. I can't wait until I come back acai

Great customer service! Got sat down really quick our server Jay was really nice and kept our table clean and full of food

Food and customer service is great. I love the soup too and meats are high quality. However waiting is long on weekends for dinner and parking is a bit an issue too.

One of my all time fav kbbq spots! Every meat we had was such good quality also I love my Salmon nigiris so that made me even more happy. We did premium AYCE and the varieties were great also includes a choice of 3 things for a small dessert which is always nice! Would def recco for anyone in Vegas wanting some solid ayce kbbq!

Have tried this kbbq twice, first time was a great experience. Food and service was both great. The second time the food was still good but service was a little lagging because the lady helping us didnt prepare banchan and asked us how the food was when we only had meat on the table. She didnt seem to really care and was slow to come back for refill. Other than that, I wont check this place off because the food was still good. One bad staff doesnt make the rest bad, the rest of the staff was actually nice and attentive.

Hwaro was a great experience! We took my Mom here for her birthday dinner and it was the best choice! We had a corner booth and it was the perfect spot for our group of 8. Our server Lee was one of the best servers I've ever had at an AYCE restaurant. He was so friendly, high energy and made the whole experience 10/10! (Thank you Lee!) The kbbq menu was big! The meat selection was amazing and tasted sooooo good and their sushi selection was great as well! The best of both worlds! I wish I had gotten the name of the front who checked us in because he was great too! I didn't get many photos from this visit but we do intend to go back in the future!

My friends and I were craving KBBQ and we found hwaro on TikTok so we had to try it. We waited for almost hour but let me tell you it was all worth it!! The service is top notch especially our server Joshua and we were surprised he was the host too at the same time!! He was so fast and genuinely nice. We did late night it was 26.95 something. If you guys going to try hwaro I would recommend the spicy pineapple steak it was so good. It comes with sushi as well. 5 STAR!!

Fantastic fresh food and service. Their new menu has so many options including sushi and love that they have fresh rosemary and green onions to accompany many of the meats. Highly recommend the seafood boil which comes in a cream sauce...I was skeptical but pleasantly surprised! Pearl, our server, was extremely attentive and knowledgeable about the menu! Definitely ask for her!

I live in LA and honestly this place is the best place to go to for AYCE sushi n kbbq. Its soooo good. Quality meat, the place always smells so good the customer service is delightful and the price ? Cannot beat the price. I absolutely recommend this place and its my favorite go to place for my trips to Vegas
