Jjukku Jjukku BBQ

Good vibes all you can eat kbbq! We got option A and the choices were great for us. Early ish on a Saturday we got a table no problem! And it’s in a good plaza with other nice places to visit.

Jjukku Jjukku BBQ is a solid AYCE Korean BBQ option in K-town. They have 3 different options to choose from: Classic for $37.99, Deluxe for $48.99, or Premium for $57.99. I went with Deluxe because that option includes the beef finger meat, beef tongue, marinated boneless short rib, LA short rib, etc. If you get the Premium option, you get the Prime cuts of meat (prime boneless short rib, ribeye, etc.). Service was decent at Jjukku Jjukuu... until it started getting busy. Then, it become more difficult to flag down the servers to order. There's a 2 hour dining limit and I recommend you come early before the place fills up. Parking can also be a little tricky in this area. There are paid parking lots within a couple blocks. I recommend parking there vs. looking for street parking.

Order Tier C for sure the quality is much better than the other 2. I am a bit disappointed with the beef tartare though- it was frozen! How could we enjoy a beef tartare with ice in it? However salute to the server who did not charge us extra for not finishing the dish. I honestly enjoyed everything else. A very nice meal indeed with affordable price.

Very bad experience here. Their hours are listed as open until 1 AM yet they actually close at midnight. This wasn’t told to us when we got seated. Despite feeling rushed, we tried our best to make the best of the experience. We ordered the premium AYCE. The main reason why we ordered it was to have the beef tartar. Immediately the brisket comes out frozen… like rock hard frozen. This was an easy fix as after setting it on the grill it cooked easily. The quality was OK. Now, when the beef tartare came out, after 20 mins of waiting it was also rockhard solid frozen. We could not eat it. We politely told the server that the tartar was frozen and asked if we could have another one, instead of apologizing and trying to offer a solution she responded with “if you don’t like it you don’t have to eat it”… umm what? I was actually baffled why are we paying premium prices for food that is not edible? Ok.. let’s give the other meats a chance. The grill was burning out food and I had to get up and ask for another grill as nobody came to check on us at all when there was only two parties eating in the entire restaurant. PLEASE CHECK YOUR CHECK! They made multiple errors with bringing out our check. Initially, we were charged for another parties check, we had to be bothered 4 times during our meal with check issues and trying to get it paid!!! Once the charge processed, they also ended up charging me an unauthorized tip and sent me a FORGED receipt with a forged signature! Their server literally put in a tip for herself on my card. This is fraud. Do NOT come here

A great Korean BBQ spot for casual dining and really solid food. The wait is hit or miss since you cannot call ahead and have to show up and sign in but the meats are well worth the wait. We came on a Sunday night of a holiday weekend as a party of five and were seated within 30 minutes. The service is really responsive and meats come out quickly along with the unlimited sides. They do a cool birthday celebration too - I was lucky to witness it at a nearby table. Overall, I definitely recommend!

Reasonably priced all you can eat Korean BBQ. Pretty big space with room for small and large parties. Service is very fast, almost too fast. We found it kind of hard to fully enjoy or relax. Portions size is good. They give a fair amount of sides but not a lot. Ventilation is ok, not great. Overall a good experience for basic Korean BBQ. Street parking.

Great Korean BBQ at a premium -- 56.99/per person. As soon as we were sat we received so many sauces and little sides (A+). Good quality meats; my favorite meat was the basil chicken breast -- fire!!! We were there for so long and didn't get shoved out. I'm super happy that the staff allowed us to get our fill. 10/10 would def try again.

Great all you can eat kbbq spot in Ktown with many options to choose from. Can’t go wrong with unlimited beef tongue and short ribs. The quality of beef was pretty good and the side dishes were great tasting as well. A little bit on the pricey side but I felt it was worth it.

I went on a Saturday night10pm and the place was packed, but the staff handled it like pros. Our server -- a super kind woman who never stopped smiling -- was so attentive and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. She kept checking on us, made sure our grill was perfect, and even gave us tips on how to get that crispy pork belly texture. The food? Amazing. The meats were top quality (definitely try the galbi and pork belly), and all the side dishes were fresh and flavorful. They kept refilling everything without us even asking. Even with a full house, service was fast and we never felt rushed. Jjukku Jjukku has great energy, friendly staff, and food that honestly just hits different. If you're craving Korean BBQ, this is the spot -- and clearly, a lot of people

I've been to Jjukku Jjukku Korean BBQ restaurant about 7-8 times with my friends, and I was always satisfied -- the meat quality was great (especially for an AYCE spot), and the bottom sirloin steak cut was one of my favorites. That's why I kept going back with different groups of friends. The AYCE Combo ($69.99 : C Combo) usually comes with a nice variety of meats, plus extras like the nostalgic lunch box, steamed egg, and scorched rice, which I really enjoyed. But when I went on Saturday evening, August 16, with a party of six, it was such a disappointment. At Korean BBQ restaurants, the staff always helps grill the meat at your table -- that's part of the service. But this time, even though the place was empty and the servers were not busy, they told us they don't grill the meat for customers. That was a huge letdown. I've never been to a Korean BBQ spot where they refused to grill the meat. My friends were so disappointed and asked why I suggested this place, and honestly, I felt the same way. On top of that, the smoke from the grill was overwhelming, going straight into our eyes, which made it really uncomfortable. There are so many great Korean BBQ restaurants in LA, but with this kind of service (no grilling, inattentive staff, and poor overall experience), I will not ever come back again. All of my friends told me, too.

JJUKKU JJUKKU ISNT BUSY ANYMORE. On a Saturday night, there's no two hour wait. What happened? WHATS GOING DOWN 1. Meat quality now more average but still decent and competitive 2. Dwenjang jjige tastes lackluster due to it tasting exactly from a kit from a market 3. Service from the lady tonight was awful as she seemed lazy, lost but the two other guy waiters we had did a lot better for us- she seemed to only give us friendly service when she was packing up the tip at the end 4. Cucumber banchan now skips a step in taking more water out the cucumber before the pickle so it's now mid 5. Their nurungji sucks 6. Their steamed egg is inconsistent WHATS STILL AMAZING, they still have a chance 1. AYCE Charcoal 2. Creme Garlic dipping sauce 3. Kimchi and kongnamul ban chan still good 4. Their marinated meats are less sweeter and sesame tasting, better than other places that do mess that up (like baekjeong chain) although jjukkus marinated kalbi can be less sweeter Seems overall the care of each item going out is much less. Maybe jjukku is also doomed to go thru the KTown BBQ AYCE life expectancy which is disappointing because at one time they were the best. I'm glad I live at a place near where the best AYCE ktown bbq spot is actually in Rowland Heights. WOW just read the last guys review. If she's consistently giving horrible service she needs to get fired. She really is lazy and inattentive, and her attitude is terrible for no reason. All I saw were signs of a toxic workplace which means bad management decisions, like not firing incompetent workers and letting decent people have a positive working environment.

K town is still popping even on a Thursday night. Parking is scarce but if you arrive around 6 you may be able to find something on the street and not have to compete with the double parked food delivery guys. Jjukku jjukku's AYCE has prime cut meats that you will want to load up on before you go on to the more basic cuts, love that Cold noodles are included as well as egg soufflé or soups

JJUKU JJUKU is located in a popular part of ktown. When we arrived on a Thursday night, street parking was tough but we got a table very quickly. There is a ton of seating and some tables suitable for larger groups with two grills. I would definitely come here again for the "Deluxe" middle level and specifically for the seasoned beef rib, LA galbi, and the baby octopus teppanyaki. Not the best beef in town but king galbi at the mid tier level and amazing octopus makes up for it. Only misses were 1) weak banchan game -- no radish wraps and taste was off 2) very very smoky environment but the charcoal was a neat feature. I am not sure if the vents hanging above the grills do anything but it also made it very hard to see the cook of the meat in the shadows. Overall cleanliness was average. With a remodel this place would be amazing.

This is a great choice for AYCE kbbq! The meat quality is fantastic. Really cool exposed brick ambiance, and the servers were attentive. the sides (mainly the kimchi) are just decent, but not amazing. I recommend going here, I've never had to wait to get a table either late at night (10pm+)

Came here on a whim with some friends, it was a Wednesday evening we got there at a perfect time before it started filling up with people. We were seated immediately and started ordering. It felt very cozy in there, I rarely ever get kbbq but I'd definitely come back here. The service is quick and they are quite attentive. The servers make many rounds at the table. Meat came out really quick, and we were also able to put our extra bags and outerwear inside the seats, which is a pro. Their sauces were good too. One thing though, the day we went it seemed like their kimchi was going bad and at first it tastes fine but as we ate more of it I realized it tasted as if it was left out in the sun, sour and tasted funny. I eat kimchi pretty often so I know what fermented kimchi tastes like but it seemed like this one was starting to go bad. Anyways, no biggie. Everything else was good and I would come back.

Always enjoyed eating there! Good vibes, delicious meats, wide range of selections and great services.

Food was absolutely fantastic!! Pricing was great for the basic package but the 2 premium options were very expensive and everyone at your table had to order them that it seemed super pricy. Service was super friendly and beyond super fast. If you asked for something within 1 minute including a drink it was at your table. They had exhaust fans that you could bring down and adjust to help with any smoke. Atmosphere was not too loud. You felt a little rushed that there was a large line outside and the second your plate was empty they took it away, but we were able to get a table innately without a wait at 6:30 on a Saturday. Drink Selection was nice too they had a few beers, wine, and soju to choose from. They bring you a lot of sides, rice and salad all included. The macaroni salad was amazing!

This place is hands down one of the best all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ spots in LA! The meat was fresh, well-marinated, and packed with flavor. especially the brisket and marinated short ribs. Every bite was juicy and satisfying, and the banchan (side dishes) were on point. But what really made the experience amazing was the staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, even though the place was pretty busy. They checked in often, changed our grill without us asking, and made sure we had everything we needed. You could tell they actually cared about giving great service, which isn't always the case at AYCE places. The atmosphere was fun and lively, perfect for a night out with friends. And for the price, it's a great deal considering the quality of the food and the awesome service. Highly recommend if you're in LA and craving K-BBQ. I'll definitely be coming back!

One of my absolute favorite places to go get Korean BBQ. Funny cozy ambiance, and delicious food.

My coworker put us in this spot. This place is so good and for the price not bad. The service is great. The waiters are very attentive. They are quick to come by take any dishes or ask what other meat you would like. They also help out on the grill if they see you having trouble. The beef belly and the pork belly is soooo good. The bulgogi and the brisket as well. They play kpop music while you're eating your meals. I have gone during lunch time and there wasn't a waiting time. I also have gone on a Saturday night and surprisingly there wasn't a long waiting time, if you're near Korea town check this place out.

I love this place. I always come here whenever I want kbbq :) price is always reasonable and service is great. the food is delicious!

Great kbbq spot! There are 3 tiers available, and we got the first tier which we thought was comprehensive enough. The steamed egg was really delicious, but you can only order 1 per 2 guests (maybe temporary because of the egg shortage???). Service was really quite quick, we went in a Sunday night and were seated immediately. Staff always checked up on us and asked us if we wanted to order more. I will say the ventilation is not the best haha and I left smelling like a smoke bomb but that's expected after kbbq! Parking is a little tricky, but there is a small paid lot below.

While there are many other spots in Ktown for Korean bbq, this place wasn't bad! Def gets the job done and the pricing is fair. There's also a honeymee icecream outside which is cool if you want to grab desert right after or mid meal. Service was great

If you're in the mood for delicious Korean bbq give Jjukku Jjukku a try. We had a party of six and had a blast. Joonho was very helpful and continued to check on us. Staff continued to replace our grill and help control the smoke from grilling as well. Everything from the macaroni to grilled meats were delicious. Very flavorful and was all you can eat. We were all pleased. We ordered beef bulgogi, pork belly and tons more. The dipping sauces were a bonus. Highly recommend.

solid kbbq spot in ktown! there's $5 valet parking in the structure underneath it, make sure to validate. i loved pairing the beef w the cold noodles. the lunch box presentation was so cute and i loved the sides. ask for garlic and soybean paste!

A higher end AYCE KBBQ spot in K-town! We did the Deluxe (Menu B) which was $46.99 and it came with a huge selection! We didn't try every thing on that menu since it was only two of us but we got the: -Beef Belly -Beef Brisket -Large Intestine -Thick Cut Pork Belly -Pork Ribs -Marinated Short Ribs -Marinated Black Pepper Beef -Steamed Egg For the amount of things we got, I think it was really worth the price. The cuts were high quality as well, and that thick pork belly cut was HUGE. Limited sides though, they didn't even have rice paper which is my favorite, but the unique sauces were different from a lot of places! I don't know what salt they gave to us too but it was a pretty high quality salt I want to take home for myself. Would come back here on an emptier stomach!!

JJUKKU JJUKKU is my favorite ayce Korean bbq restaurant in Ktown! Korean bbq is my favorite food, and I really enjoy all the quality proteins here. They have 3 menu options, A, B, and C. Today my gf and I went with C, where they have their premium cuts and cold noodles, in addition to everything on menu B and A. The reason why JJUKKU is my favorite are the quality options of protein, amount of sides, sauces, and atmosphere. For ayce, the quality of meats is the best I have had in LA, and they have unique options like the lunch box which is a fried rice mixture to accompany the meats. All the sauces add an extra kick to every bite. The sides are refreshing and unlimited. My go to meats are the prime steaks, Marinated LA Kalbi, brisket, beef belly, and pork jowl. Everything on the menu is so good, depending on the day I go heavier on certain proteins. The tops of the seats come off so you can store your jackets so they do not smell like kbbq. The ambiance is fun and vibrant with a more casual vibe. The servers all are fast to assist and very attentive. Rule of thumb, most ayce restaurants you will grill, and now most non-ayce restaurants in Ktown the servers will grill for you. The servers here do a great job of getting your grill started and occasionally cooking, but understand ayce serving is demanding and usually they don't grill for you. The servers are fast and attentive, and I always have a great time here. As someone that enjoys kbbq so much, JJUKKU JJUKKU really is an incredible restaurant! the quality is prime, amount of options are ridiculous, and atmosphere of the restaurant make for an amazing meal. Enjoy!

Beeessttt marinades and great and very attentive service. Comfortable relaxed atmosphere.

In a crowded plaza in Ktown 1) there's garage parking that ended up charging us $7 after validation or 2) street meter parking *smh Came here because our cousin recommended and because my wife wanted beef tongue we order option B. We were blessed that we came at a very odd hour (3:10pm) and it wasn't too packed so instead of squeezing 5 people into one tiny booth they allowed us to switch to two tables and fired up both grills :) Honestly I think I'm still catching up w inflation for the price we had to pay $46.99 per person I thought the food was just okay. I really expected more but no complaints because everyone else in the party was happy...I'm just bias because compared to the spot I really like, this place missed the mark for me. What I didn't like about this place: the grill - the hot oil kept splashing out and hitting us and it burns lol and the waiter kept turning the fire down (we had it on a 3 setting and it keeps going to a one setting) and everything just took FOREVER to cook. You have to have a lot of patient to eat here. Also I noticed when you wait a long time, you can't eat as much. (Probably a good thing for me lol) The service was awesome and the workers really hustle a lot as they're constantly switching the grills that's why I decided to up the rating to three stars. Overall: I wouldn't come back here again as there are so many other choices and I prefer eating lots and quick and this is def not the place to do so. And paying extra for parking on top was no bueno for me.

Used to be a good place but the quality of the meats have significantly gone down and especially for the price. You can go to other places for a lot cheaper and gives you better quality non frozen on arrival meats. They also left the grill off of the charcoal for so long before replacing it and the woods was flaring up on our skins and burned a small hole in one of our shirts. Also felt rushed when it was not busy at all and we were only there for an hour

One of my favorite KBBQ spots. I love the quick service and the amazing selection of food. This is a great place to enjoy with friends. The seating was comfortable.

Jjukku Jjukku is my go-to spot for AYCE KBBQ, hands down. Anywhere from 2-20 people, as long as you call a week a head for a reservation, staff is very accommodating! The inside is spacious, but also still maintains that "local spot" charm that gets people comfortable immediately upon sitting down. The waiters are busy and friendly, though you may need to flag them down more often than they check in. The banchan is pretty standard- unlimited of course- and no rice paper is my only issue! The onions, salad, 3 different types of kimchi (cucumber, radish, cabbage), mashed potato salad, etc were all tasty and nicely seasoned. At $37, Combo A is very affordable and comes with my favorite meat - brisket! The bigger pieces of meat and marinated meats in Combo B and C are also quite tasty, though I come here primarily for the bargain that is Combo A. The meats are all pretty solid quality, with good texture without being overly fatty across the board, and the dipping sauces included the standard doenjang (fermented soybean dip), salt, sesame oil, a thinner soy-based sauce, and milky ranch-like sauce that acts as a nice contrast to cool down spicy meats. Definitely recommend also getting steamed egg and/or cold noodles. Perfect consistency and flavoring for both; the cold noodles add a welcome chewy consistency that counteracts the endless meat. Overall a great spot for AYCE KBBQ, and consistently a good experience!

I got the All You Can Eat $34.99 with my boyfriend and I think it was well worth it! We ordered beef bulgogi, kimchi soup, beef tongue, brisket, pork belly, steamed egg, and teriyaki chicken with a side of lettuce. We left extremely full! My only complaint was that it was really smoky and hot in there because of the BBQ. So be prepared to smell like BBQ for a while after you step out of the restaurant. There's also parking below the restaurant but it is valet.

Korean barbecue is always fun with friends! It's also fun when you're the eater and your friends like to cook and be in charge of the meats and grill! Lol! We ordered a bunch of meats; we ordered pork belly, pork jowl, brisket, intestine, large and small (it was my first time!) and I left that place so full of meat, I was sweating it! Service was amazing and fast. Atmosphere was smoky and just hella people out on a Saturday night. They have seats where they double as storage and you can put your belongings inside so it doesn't smell smoky like the rest of you! Best time ever but also because I have the bestest friends ever to party and eat with for the rest of my life!

If you're looking for AYCE premium kbbq meats, you gotta check this spot out. We ordered their Premium C AYCE menu which is a little pricey, but the quality of the Prime Boneless Short Rib and the Prime Rib Eye definitely made up for it. They use charcoal for their grill so it adds a nice flavor to the grilled meats. The restaurant was a bit warm and smokey, wish there was better ventilation.

This is a good option for ayce kbbq, but only if you're willing to splurge on the most expensive premium set at $57. The short ribs and ribeye were prime and you could taste the difference. They also include spicy cold noodles, which I haven't seen at other places. Go for those and the pork jowl and baby octopus. We tried the brisket and beef tongue from the cheaper tiers and they weren't that good. What sets this place apart from the rest is the extra flavor from the charcoal grill and the variety of sauces they offer. Service was phenomenal at first. They were constantly asking if we wanted more orders and were watching to change to different grills for specific types of meat. The service kind of stopped later in the evening when the restaurant got packed, but we were slowing down anyway. Would recommend coming early! It also gets extremely smoky inside the later it gets.

They have cold buck wheat noodles and beef tartare! It's rare to find a place that has both

delicious kbbq spot! super solid selection and pretty good quality. celebrated a friend's bday here and there were about 12 of us so its great for large parties if you make a reservation ahead of time. they offer 3 different tiers and all of us went for the middle tier which included a good amount of options, definitely on the pricey side but the all the banchan were excellent and meat was so tasty. the only complaint is parking is definitely hard to find as expected in ktown and the smoke was not ventilated well on one side of the table. that it blew heavily in our faces. this was actually my 2nd time back to jjukku jjukku after a couple of years and luckily the quality has not gone down, and the experience is always good so i would definitely come back!

This place is a chill kbbq spot in koreatown. All you can eat menu with 3 tiers. Service was very attentive and always ask us if we needed anything. The quality of the food was not that bad and if we wanted the higher quality meat it was only $10 extra around $50 for all you can eat.

Oh sweet Jjuku Jjuku Jjuku, where do I even begin? This is the GOAT AYCE KBBQ I have ever had. Maybe the GOAT AYCE KBBQ anyone in the world has ever had. Let's start at the beginning. You walk in and its like you've won a golden ticket. Premium meats as far as the eye can see, banchan scattered around the tables like roses on a bed, adjustable exhaust vents, and charcoal in every grill sitting there like obsidian stone waiting to be discovered. While getting settled in and taking the beauty of everything in, our server spawned out of the shadows and sauntered up to our table to turn on our grill and I shit you not, I felt like a prehistoric man watching a powerful wizard cast a fireball into our grill to bring our charcoal ablaze. She then spoke to me in her magical wizard KBBQ tongue that I could somehow understand, and she helped guide me and my spirit through the Jjuku Jjuku experience. We got the premium menu and started off with the heavy hitters. Ribeye, boneless short rib, bone in short rib. As you can see in my pictures, Jjuku Jjuku does not pander. Not only was this meat A La Carte quality, but the charcoal grill does something magical to the meat. No matter what we put on the grill, this sensational, smokey BBQ flavor was shed unto every bite of meat we placed in our mouths. After a divine two hours of pounding meats and taking it, we sat there sated with little meat babies in our bellies. We tried to sit there for as long as we could to stay in this dream for all of eternity but, alas, the next party was waiting for their religious experience. Until next time, Jjuku Jjuku.

I came here to try a new KBBQ spot and was slightly dissatisfied. The meat flavor was pretty good because they use charcoal so it definitely gives the meat a unique flavor however the quality was just ok. If you plan to come here just based on price I would say you're better off somewhere else. Parking is lowkey trash because you're forced to do valet which makes the whole experience more expensive. I think what really made me rate this kbbq spot 3 stars is their sauce options. The sauces were honestly not good and I was very thrown off by the fact that they had ranch?? lol. I will say, the bean paste stew was very good!! The service was not terrible but it wasn't extraordinary either. They came when needed and would check in for meat requests. Overall, I don't think I would come back however, I wouldn't completely dismiss it in the future.

Another AYCE KBBQ joint in Koreatown, Los Angeles. This is a rare one that uses charcoal in their meats. (This also increases the risk of getting burnt food.) They have 3 levels of menu. Level A is cheapest, Level B is in the middle, and Level C includes the premium cuts of meat at $56.99. Parking in this plaza is the worst. It's across from the H Mart structure, but I think you need to actually buy something there to get parking validated. Good luck finding street/metered spots around. The service is ok. They forgot a lot of the things we asked for, but they're just a button call away. I feel like they get busier after 8 PM, so if you go earlier there is no wait. The meat is ok. I'm thinking I'm better off paying this much to get better quality meats at other restaurants. The fans above the grill also suck really bad. One of the fans broke and actually fell off during our meal!? The smoke gets blown toward the inside of the restaurant because they keep the door open.

Was craving kbbq with some friends so we randomly chose this place to try! We got seated immediately and the side dishes were plentiful, including a good sized salad! We all went for the "classic" all you can eat menu which was pretty reasonable compared to other kbbq places, however, I believe the price really reflects the quality of the meat! You definitely pay for what you get. The meat wasn't bad, but it wasn't amazing either. As for the service, all workers were pretty attentive but they could work on being more considerate. There was a lady that would come by routinely to switch our grills. We had tongs and chopsticks near the grill as she changed them so she would carelessly pick them up and toss them on my bowl, which I did not like. Overall, I neither feel overly negative or positive about this experience. I don't think I'll be going out of my way to be back here anytime soon.

Great quality meat, decent parking space in the afternoon, and fun environment! Would definitely come again for kbbq and drinks. I like that they use charcoal for the grill here - makes the room a lot smokier but love the flavor it adds to the grilled meats

Friend introduced us to this place. She raves about the prices and great quality meats! Lunch Price: Deluxe Set B $38.99 pp + soft drink $3.99. Tina's Tips - Sign in to the wait list on the sheet outside. It can be a long wait so we went to Paris Baguette to get iced Vietnamese coffee - Meats are high quality - Ask for more seasonings and salt - Staff is really good with refilling the sides and taking your 2nd, 3rd, 4th and so on orders! - Cook yourself and/or ask your friend too haha - Great value for the price

I love that this place has a charcoal grill! I love the side dishes and the sauce! The sides are super fresh such as the kimchi

JJukku Jjukku is one of my go tos for cheap KBBQ where you cant decide on a new place. Its conveniently located, tastes decent, and afoordable. With so many tables, i've never had issues with waiting for more than 1 hour. Another cool feature is each grill has a even directly above it but somehow, the place is still always smokey. Definitely be prepared to leave smelling like KBBQ. They offer beer towers and sojus here so if you are looking to pregame and eat for a night out, this place does the trick. Parking around the area can be tricky and the streets surrounding the restaurant is a little packed so be ready.

Went to eat here for the first time and this is our experienced here. This is disgusting! . I'm not going back here!!!!

wow it's been almost 5 years since i've had jjukku jjukku! had to come back to this gem and im surprised it tastes just like i remember it tbh even thought its been a FAT min, with the quality of meat being prettyyyyy solid. i always got the premium set of meats and get my moneys worth here. i came around 4:30pm and there was no wait but i'm sure it gets busier during peak dinner time. the service was amazing! everything i ordered came out in a pretty quick manner, didn't have to repeat myself and my server was very attentive. i practically only ordered the prime boneless short rib, its the delicious and so tender and chewy. i loveeeeeeeee hehe. the lunchbox is also a stable to ayce bbq. prolly one of the best i've had. i totally forget that they don't shake it for you :') this is definitely top 1 for ayce korean bbq to me. such great quality in customer service, food, and vibes teehee. so glad i rediscovered jjukku jjukku again!

Great food for affordable prices. It was all you can eat with a 2 hr limit. Make sure to go with many friends and empty tummies to make the most of it. The service was quick and always made sure that we had food, condiments and water on the table. It felt like an authentic Korean bbq experience.

This is the kind of place that I like! Lively crowds, smoky grills, and a do-it-yourself KBBQ experience. They have three tiers of food selection and we went with the basic one. It had everything we needed and it's AYCE for about $40! This place isn't for everyone since they actually use charcoal in their grills for KBBQ so very smoky. You also have to cook it yourself so if you're not into that then you won't like it. For as busy as it was, service was good and we got multiple grill changes which I found very appreciative of to avoid food being burnt. They have simple banchan, but hits the spot. I really like this place for the deal and experience! Will definitely be coming back!

Definitely one of the go to spots on my list of gogi places! Introduced this place to friends and loved ones!

I think there are better kbbq places. The seats are just stools and are not comfortable at all! There is not enough ventilation in here it smells very oily and steamy from the meat. You can put your stuff inside your seat which was nice. Tables felt really cramped together. The meat quality did not seem good. Their soups were not that good but the steamed egg was decent. It took forever for them to bring them out though. The servers were very busy and had to flag down. I turned the fire down so many times because full flame burned the meat too fast and was emitting so much oil into the air, but the servers really seemed like they wanted us out as fast as possible and always turned it back to max heat when they saw we turned it lower.

Overall, it's a solid AYCE Korean barbecue spot. Public parking can be difficult to find, so they offer valet parking, especially on weekends. They have a good selection of meat choices and side dishes, and the service is pretty quick with meat refills. It's a popular place, but they accept reservations, which is a nice perk since most all-you-can-eat places don't. However, they have a 2-hour time limit, starting when the first person in your party arrives. For a party of 8, with some people arriving 30 minutes late, the time limit felt a bit short. Still, I understand the need to accommodate other reservations. The atmosphere is lively and energetic, and the staff is friendly and attentive. The quality of the meat is good, and the flavors are bold and satisfying. The side dishes are also delicious, and there is a good variety to choose from. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd recommend it to anyone visiting ktown.

Our LA favorite for casual AYCE with friends and/or family! Great service, wide selection and good quality meats at a reasonable price. I lived in LA for 7yrs but have since moved to the Bay Area. With family in LA we come back often and always hit this place up to get our KBBQ fix. We love the brisket, onion salad, lunchbox dosirak, jumuluk, cold noodles. Try to save room for Honeymee dessert right outside their door!

This place is lovely. We stopped by for the lunch special and we were pleased to find validated parking on site. Staff was fantastic, helpful and didn't lurk but were always close by if you needed anything. Meat was high quality and it was fun to cook on a charcoal grill. The salad was good - though not a traditional green onion salad. where you'll usually see just brisket sauce, sesame oil and salt, this restaurant adds a garlic aioli and garlic sauce to the array. This place is a little less traditional than some other places. I would have liked more banchan. We had kimchi, cucumbers, macaroni salad and soy beans. There were no lettuce wraps or rice paper. Banchan was all on the spicy side. I would have liked to see glass noodles, radishes This place is definitely worth a visit. The nature of the staff, the quality of the meat and the parking make this worth a visit, especially for lunch.
