"Located in The Crescent shopping center at Airport and Lamar, this all-you-can-eat spot has a few menu tiers, with prices starting just under $40 for the basic option. And while the pricier plans do get you things like wagyu ribeye and freshwater eel, K BBQ’s strengths lie in the simpler marinated meats like garlic samgyupsal and beef bulgogi. Banchan options are pretty sparse, and meats may occasionally arrive as fully frozen bricks, but if you want a lot of food in a no-frills, semi-industrial atmosphere, complete with robot delivery carts, K BBQ is a solid bet." - nicolai mccrary
"The Highland Korean restaurant’s Korean barbecue is served up all-you-can-eat grill-it-yourself table-service style with — yes — robot servers. There are all sorts of meats from classic galbi, marinated prime rib, eel, to shrimp, alongside sides like steamed eggs and corn cheese. There are two main all-you-can-eat options with its own selection of choices. The A is $36.99 for people 12 years old and older and $26.00 for children between the ages of five and 11; the more premium B is $46.99 and $36.99 respectively; and the ultra-premium C for $59.99 and $38.99. Leftovers of more than half a pound will be charged; seatings are limited to two hours. There are indoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury

"New Highland restaurant K BBQ is using robot servers, as reported by CBS Austin, due to the staffing shortages and many restaurants having difficulties finding and/or retaining employees. There are two robots that deliver dishes to diners. The restaurant, which focuses on all-you-can-eat Korean barbecue, opened in late September." - Nadia Chaudhury
