Red Castle Korean BBQ

Went back for lunch and it was good overall. We choose package A since we just want one type of meat with salad and a pitcher of beer and that is it. Service is great, but once we started ordered on app, it just slow but we caught one of the helpers (Hispanic) and he was happy to help. The meat is fresh and tastes greatly. The grill work (this time) without problem. The place is old but clean and packed with the meat grilling smell so don’t wear anything fancy or you will be smell for awhile. Overall we had a great lunch here with good food and good services. Weekend or nightly can be packed but parking lot is big so no worry about finding parking.

1. This KBBQ is AYCE, and it has different types of meat! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! The interior is bigger than it looks! 3. The staff was friendly and quick with our order! Note: Side dishes can only be order using a QR Code! Photo: Pork Belly, Brisket, and Spicy Pork

The first time I ate here this became one of my favorite K BBQ spots. Last night we had a pretty whack experience. First time I came we ordered everything directly from the server, last night we were told to place our orders through our phone, which I would actually prefer more. Except none of our orders were coming out. I was sitting around waiting for things to come & had to eventually call the server to ask him why the food wasn’t coming. He looked at my phone and said he’ll go get it. They ended up bringing out a bunch of random stuff that we did not order. 🤨 On top of that They “ran out”of kimchi rice. not sure how they could run out of it when they had all the ingredients to make it. I think they just wanted everyone to leave and were rushing people to close. Toward the end, they did not want to bring us out one last meat. I told them of our experience how none of our food was even coming out, & when it finally did, they brought everything wrong- yet I didn’t complain. I just ate it. Also how I was disappointed about the kimchi rice because it’s one of the reasons I go there. & now that we only wanted one final meat to come out for last call…They refused to do it. really terrible Customer Service! Was horrible service overall. I really hope this was a one-time thing. The way we were treated would make me honestly never want to go back. Except I really do enjoy the quality of their food & menu that they offer. And the woman who helped us last time was phenomenal. So I hope this doesn’t happen again.

We have been coming here for several years. The food is delicious high-quality meat fast service and good prices. My sister and I enjoyed a delicious meal tonight. Thank you so much for that amazing meal. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and they will get you in and out Feeling satisfied every time. Our personal favor is menu B. Love the brisket, bulgogi, beef belly!

I didn’t want to come here but my friends kept insisting, and I should have trusted my gut. From the moment we walked in, it was chaos. The seating process is a joke; we were almost cut in line by another group because the staff doesn’t manage the floor. The service is where it really falls apart. We were told to scan the QR code, but after waiting 20 minutes for food, we realized the system didn't even register our order because the server hadn't "activated" it on her end—despite her telling us to scan it earlier. To make it worse, the staff kept knocking over our empty water jug and just putting it back instead of actually refilling it. The "All You Can Eat" tag is a lie. We are a group of six, yet they refused to bring us more than two tiny dishes of kimchi at a time. When I tried to order more, the older waitress actually sighed at me and told me I couldn't have that much because we'd have leftovers. I’m paying for AYCE—don't tell me how much my group can eat. Every refill took 10+ minutes. To top it off, they forced an 18% gratuity for a group of 4+. The service was non-existent and the attitude from the older lady was terrible. Save your money and go somewhere that actually wants your business.

Been coming to Red Castle for years now ever since their Flower Pig days when I was a college student. Prices are definitely higher than before and similar to a couple other AYCE places but I find myself coming here for the familiarity. A few changes I like is I can order sides and meat with a QR code which improves efficiency. Service can be a hit or miss though, a few occasions it takes them forever to bring out an order. I noticed it also isn’t as busy as it was in the past, even on a weekend. There’s minimal wait now usually despite having a tablet near the front to put your name for the waitlist.

I came here on my birthday 1/10 around 10:20 pm hours on google stated they close at 12:00am kind of late I get it but it’s not like I showed up at 11:30 . I sit down with my family of 4 and shortly after we get our first order probably 15 minutes after we sat down we are told that last call for the kitchen ( older Asian lady who seated us never told us last call was in Less than 20 minutes had I known I would have went somewhere else no big deal ) needs to be made mind you I’m about to drop 100$+ for this mediocre service they are giving me so I felt a bit bothered and asked what time you close they said 12:00am but last call is usually 11:30 ( In reality 10:30 ) it was not even 11 yet and I mentioned it’s my birthday to the young lady and i felt like I was getting shafted and that I’d like atleast to be compensated or discounted something because we had been to gens bbq,star bbq, red palace cerritos,chubby cattle bbq,gangnam station and had never been treated like this actually the first time in my 26 years here on this earth I ever complained like that at a restaurant. You guys need to update the hours cause there was a few other families being denied when you’re supposed to be open another almost 2 hours and they didn’t look happy . Luckily the gentleman with the blonde hair seemed to have some semblance of customer service and took off the gratuity all in all get it together red castle I manage a business as well and this would NEVER fly . To top it all off we never got the rest of our “last call order” and were kicked out at 11:05 an hour before the stated close time what a mess.

First KBBQ restaurant of the new year! This is mine and my bf’s first time here. Parking: They’re located in a big plaza. Finding a spot is very easy. Ambiance/Environment: We visited on a Sunday afternoon for lunch, and it was poppin! Very spacious inside with plenty of seating for all group sizes. No outdoor seating. Service: I didn’t catch anyone’s names, but all the workers were quick, efficient, and attentive! Each worker constantly checked up on us which was much appreciated. Empty plates were also removed very quickly. Meats & sides: We went with Menu C that included both Menu A & B + more. We ordered sides from the tablet. You can order as many sides as you’d. All the meats tasted high quality! We enjoyed everything, but our favorites were the Red Castle Angus Beef Brisket, Red Castle Beef Belly, and LA Galbi! We also ordered more sides from the menu. The corn cheese came in a generous amount. The stone kimchi fried rice was sooo flavorful! My bf got the volcano steamed egg and tofu soup. The steamed egg came bubbling and cooked well, and the tofu soup tasted as expected. They also offer complimentary ice cream for desserts! Pricing: Wow these prices were definitely worth it! There’s a 1.5 hour limit. Trust me, this is all the time you’d need lol.

I'm a huge fan of all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ, but not gonna lie . after COVID, prices went way up, so I stopped going as often. That's why I was shocked to find Red Castle offering AYCE starting at just $24, even on weekends! Their top Combo C is only $31; basically the price of one entrée and maybe a drink elsewhere. As a meat lover, I had to go for Combo C -- beef tongue, finger meat, pork jowl, and short ribs! Not gonna lie again : it's not luxury hundred-dollar-grade meat, but it's still super fresh and real quality. Plus all the banchan, steamed egg, corn cheese, and even free ice cream , such an amazing value, and the perfect way to spend some family time! IG : socalhkfoodies

1. The quality of the KBBQ meat is good, and I love the options of Menu A! The side dishes are really good! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! The interior is big! 3. There is only indoor seatings! There are lots of tables available! 4. The staff was friendly and timely with our orders! Side dishes can only be ordered using a QR code! 5. Parking lot is huge! Very easy to find parking! Note: They do give ice cream at the end! Photo: Spicy Pork, Brisket, and Pork Belly

Red Castle was my first introduction to KBBQ when I was younger. Before it was called "Flower Pig". Their meats are really good, but tend to be a little on the fattier/greasier side. Nonetheless, it's still a great place to take your family too for a big AYCE dinner! Also, the kpop playing around the restaurant are always a nice touch. I think that's one of the most noticeable things about Red Castle tbh. T

Came in around 5:30 on a Thursday and got seated right away--no waitlist needed. I really like their new ordering system where you scan a QR code and place your order, instead of using the old iPad system. The menu has affordable options at different price points, which is great. The staff was quick and attentive, and the space overall was clean. The only minor downside was that the table I sat at got a lot of smoke from a neighboring table, but it wasn't a dealbreaker. Overall, a solid dining experience!

I was given the choice of where to dine for Father's Day and I wanted Korean bbq, but something different from our usual restaurant that we go to. some pros and cons of Red Castle PRO CON The price for premium. X One hour 30 minute time. X (Be careful with this. Know what time you start. We were only an hour in and they we'd giving us our last call and forced to one last order.) Rib eye cut too thin. X Some cuts of beef belly tough. X Delicious pork jawl X Ban chan tablet X (Convenient feature but ours was not working at first and we were waiting for 20 minutes with no sides. That affected our time limit. ) Service by some waiters were good, others were rude. Overall, they were too concerned with their time limit. I know they get busy, but I want to enjoy my experience, not rushed. I felt so rushed, I did not get to try other things on the menu and we went with the premium do that we had no limitations. We're not trying to hang out there all day, but at least allow us to get what we are paying for. One last thing is they are so strict to the 3 meats per order. I wanted to start with 3 ribeyes but they won't let you. You have to order 3 different kinds of meat each time. Needless to say, been there, done that. I have a lot of other KBBQ restaurants to try and go to. I don't think I'm coming back.

What a cute low key KBBQ place! Everything is ordered via phone but it looks like you could order by paper if you wanted to do that. We got there a little after they opened and there was no wait. They have three different menus to chose from for kbbq and we chose menu A. Different menus have different types of meat, but we weren't looking for a wide selection. It's all you can eat, but you have to wait a couple minutes between ordering meats. I like that as it seems like a good way to prevent waste/ over ordering. The banchan selection is by order and I do wish they included more variety. The cucumbers weren't the typical kimchi cucumbers I was thinking of but they were still pretty good. The price is pretty decent for menu A. I feel like you can't go wrong with KBBQ in LA area so this is one to check out! The staff were super friendly as well

This is hands down the best cheap kbbq place in the area. What I love doing here is making cheesy bulgogi fries. You can also get tortillas here and make tacos. Overall it's a fun experience and a great value.

Red Castle is my go-to KBBQ spot because of the familiarity and the price, not necessarily due to the quality of the meats or service. BUT with inflation, I'm honestly not sure if the cost is that different from other KBBQ spots with higher quality meats. There are TVs playing various k-pop groups all around the restaurant, dimly lit, and doesn't have the best ventilation. They changed up their banchan ordering system and you can order on a tablet at your table which is convenient and great to avoid unnecessary food waste, but the banchan normally takes a while to come out after you place the order and they'll typically forget some orders. My friends and I generally order from Menu C because we're fans of Galbi, and try some of the other options from the menu. We have a theory that there's a 'good brisket' and 'mediocre brisket' container; your first order of brisket will come from the good container and absolutely melt in your mouth, and the orders following that will be from the 'mediocre brisket' and be stringy and tough to chew. That theory also goes for the beef tongue, and belly. On the bright side, the marinated choices are always pretty solid and the meat is of course juicy. Overall, it's not a bad place to go to if you're craving KBBQ, but the restaurant does struggle with quality control and attentive service. It's a good option if you prefer marinated meats as opposed to dry ones.

The place is nice and clean. The check in was fast. You should avoid peak times if you don't want to wait long. But there's a cafe shop next door to chill if needed. Some of the staff are extra nicer than others and it also depends on the shifts. The food is always good. I really like their side dishes and strawberry ice cream. This is one of my favorite Korean BBQs in Garden Grove.

This is one of the cheapest places for AYCE KBBQ. Nothing wrong with cheap. One thing wrong was I couldn't scan the QR code to see their menu. But, my daughter did and was able to text me a photo of it. Menu is not really needed as their cheap menu is limited to bulgogi, brisket, five types of pork bellies, pork skin and chicken. Ordering was easy. We let the daughter do it all on her phone. They limited you to five meats at a time. Banchans could be ordered every 5 minutes. The meats were decent. They were not fatty. Everything was pretty tasty. Service was good. They changed our grill several times. They did last call us when we were already stuffed. Is a last call really necessary for customers like me who are full? It's a good cheap place that I might return to if in the area.

We have been coming here for several years. The food is delicious high-quality meat fast service and good prices. My sister and I enjoyed a delicious meal tonight. Thank you so much for that amazing meal. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and they will get you in and out Feeling satisfied every time. Our personal favor is menu B. Love the brisket, bulgogi, beef belly!

The staff was very welcoming to me and the family, and for my kids they checked all 3 of their heights since kids prices are determined by that. There's 3 options to choose from Menu A, B, and C and usually for Korean BBQ places I feel overly heavy with the meat portions/cuts but we did not at all. You can order the sides through the tablet at your table, and the waiters kept checking up on us multiple times. My family and I even got a small sweet treat after the meal can't go wrong with ice cream. We came early, and while eating the place got busy. So go at a good time if you come to this place. Parking was easy, plenty of it in the plaza.

First KBBQ restaurant of the new year! This is mine and my bf's first time here. Parking: They're located in a big plaza. Finding a spot is very easy. Ambiance/Environment: We visited on a Sunday afternoon for lunch, and it was poppin! Very spacious inside with plenty of seating for all group sizes. No outdoor seating. Service: I didn't catch anyone's names, but all the workers were quick, efficient, and attentive! Each worker constantly checked up on us which was much appreciated.

The steamed egg came bubbling and cooked well, and the tofu soup tasted as expected. They also offer complimentary ice cream for desserts! Pricing: Wow these prices were definitely worth it! There's a 1.5 hour limit. Trust me, this is all the time you'd need lol.

My coworker's son said Red Castle was his favorite AYCE Korean BBQ place, so we decided to check it out. Parking was easy in the large plaza's lot. There was a short wait to be seated after scanning the QR code to be added to the waitlist. The interior is not the biggest but I also wouldn't call Red Castle small. I found the tableside tablet unique for ordering banchan. It was cool only ordering and refilling the banchan you want (we ordered almost all of them). We especially liked the sliced radish that also includes sliced beets, which gave the radish a deep red color (they were soaked together). They even had tortillas on the tablet! Service was fine, with our server checking on us periodically. All meat orders must be done with the waiter. The interior was simple but clean. All of the dipping sauces can be assembled yourself as there are large bottles set on the table, which is also convenient. The food is the same price all day long, and there are three tiers of all-you-can-eat: A (cheapest), B, and C (most premium). We opted for the B level which had the large and small intestines I wanted. The C level comes with most of thicker beef steak cuts and things like baby octopus. I found the pricing very fair for February 2025, $25.99/person + tax for the B set. The food was tasty, and the quality while not extraordinary was more than decent. They also serve a complimentary scoop of ice cream (strawberry or vanilla) as dessert. Overall, I thought value was excellent and I would definitely come back!

this is my go to kbbq spot! the red castle beef belly is absolutely delicious, and i also enjoy their steamed egg/tofu soup. menu B is always my go to as i tend to order the same cuts. service is generally fast and servers are kind and attentive for the most part. the inside of the store does look a bit older, but it's still clean. they play kpop videos + music so its a nice and comfortable dining experience. i've noticed they're recently undergoing some changes regarding the ordering system so now you can just order everything on the phone, streamlining the order process.

Food is great, price is amazing. Our server Christine was fun and very nice!! Highly recommend

Red castle serves really good food, this place is my go to KBBQ spot. The meat they serve is really good as well as their portion sizes. The banchan is really good. I've been going here for quite some time now and they have renovated the place and it looks so much nicer. The price is pretty decent for how much you're getting. But, the servers are a hit or miss. Some of them are very nice and some of them are kinda rude. I'm giving them a 3 because my parents had a very bad interaction with one of the servers and we're not paying attention to them. Also, the parking sucks. So, be sure to come an hour before if you plan eat with a group because the wait time is atrocious depending on the day.

I used to love coming here because the prices were very affordable for kbbq and it always has great service! Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed after my last visit because they started adding in additional gratuity to party's over 4 people. Luckily I spotted this on check before adding more tip. Also, the server let us know the steam egg is not unlimited and only 1 per person for the whole meal. I don't understand that since we are paying for unlimited and it's more expensive for the menu that includes the steamed egg. If you can look past those 2 points then I would say the food is good, the service is fast, and the prices are still affordable. If you're looking for an easy and cheap kbbq experience the. I'd recommend this one! Also, the ice cream at the end is always a nice treat!

Its always hard to decide what to eat when I'm in orange county. So many good options but on this day, I wanted to try something new. Saw this place online and opted to give it a try. We were the first ones there and were seated right away. Lots of parking, lots of tables. I was surprised to see that they offer 3 tiers but the top tier is literally only $30! That's such a steal. The menus offered every meat that we usually get at kbbqs and I like that you can order the sides on the ipad. Food came out quick, service was very attentive. Would definitely come back

Pretty decent kbbq spot, I think the price point is way cheaper then most places and for the amount of options you get - it isn't bad at all. They have a 3-tier menu with the highest being $29.99! That's a steal if you ask me. You order the side dishes on the ipad, which I personally really like because it ensures that you don't waste what you dont want. Then the meats you order with the waiter, I believe its 3 options at a time Tons of parking, and I'd say there's a lot of seating here as well. Service was good & they give you ice cream at the end!

We went to Red Castle for dinner on Thursday. We arrived around 530pm and it wasn't very busy at all. There is ample parking available. The restaurant is quaint and charming. Service is very friendly and helpful. They have three different AYCE options and we went with the highest tier. It is only $29.99 for a massive selection of meat and side dishes. We ordered several sides including kimchi fried rice, steamed egg, tofu stew, kimchi, tortillas and radishes. Everything was delicious. We started our meat order with the beef tongue, Red Castle beef brisket and the Red Castle beef belly. All three are must haves! The Iron Grill steak and the ribeye bulgolgi steak are also must have. We ordered another round of each. The ribeye is large and well marinated. We also ordered L.A. Galbi and grilled it up with some pineapples and jalapeños. We charred some tortillas and made tacos. Finished up with some ice cream. A wonderful KBBQ place and can't wait to come back!

The place is in a little shopping center, parking was easy to find for sure! Service was fantastic! They were very attentive and they made sure that we got everything we needed and grill changes were very consistent. We got the premium menu at $29.99 per person and that did not disappoint! Here's what we ordered: *Beef Tongue *Ribeye Beef Bulgolgi Steak x 2 *Iron Bulgolgi Steak *Red Castle Angus Beef Brisket *Red Castle Beef Belly *LA Galbi x 2 *Tofu Soup *Jalapeno Pineapple *Stone Kimchi Fried Rice *Volcano Steamed Egg You order the meats and sides in person, you can order the Banchan on a tablet at your table! Everything was delicious and amazing! The meat quality was fantastic, and don't forget to order some tortillas to make tacos! (They're street taco sized) Come check this place out if you want great prices, amazing service, and a great time!

Food is amazing but the service is not good they ignored me and my partner but thank god for the AMAZING busser danilo he was more attentive than the actual staff! If I wasn't for him we wouldn't have sides they need to work on their customer service

Haven't been back to red castle in years, but am so glad we came back to try it again. We checked in by scanning a QR code they had in the front and got seated really quickly. The quality of the meat was surprisingly really good for the price. Our favorites were the beef belly, brisket, large intestine and pork belly. I love that the brisket isn't dry like the other kbbq places. I also love that they have a tablet where we can order our side dishes, that way we don't have to keep trying to get the servers attention to refill on side dishes. It is such an efficient way of ordering that every kbbq place should take notes on! For the side dishes, my favorites were the kimchi, potato salad, corn cheese, steamed egg, cucumber and radish! There were so many options to choose from. Highly recommend trying red castle out for good and affordable kbbq!

I've only ever been to the Rialto location, but came here on the way home from Long Beach. I love how you can order the sides on the tablet so I don't waste anything and get exactly how much of everything I want. Service was quick. Will only return to this location in the future.

took a but long to attend us but the wait/line to be seated is confusing for my first time. I went for dinner w a friend and he's a regular! I love that the sides are included, pay for the meats only! The look inside is super cute and clean. I would def go again and again for the food and how quick we were served, even if we did wait a little! Red castle is a go-to for something affordable and GOOD KBBQ!

Came here on a Sunday evening. There were 5 parties in front of us and it was about a 20-30 minute wait for our party of 4. Luckily the wait went by fast. We were seated and started ordering. I've been to the other location in Rialto and wanted to give this location here in GG a try. I'm glad I did. I notice they offer a few other menu items that they don't have at the Rialto location so we were in for a surprise. The meats are consistent and we were so full! I love that for the side dishes there's a tablet you order from at the table. That way you don't have to tell your waiter and I feel as though it's more accurate and more efficient. I love that everything came in stainless steel, it has a nice Korean authentic feel to it and love that they offer ice cream! We will happily come back to this place. Efficient service, good items and prices and overall good time!

Great KBBQ here at this Red Castle. We did not have to wait long which was nice and upon sitting our server made sure we got settled and answered any questions we had. You order everything on mobile, one thing that I kind of didn't like is you have to wait some time before making another order. So make sure you double check your orders in case you might forget something you need like another side or drink. The food itself was delicious, they provided nice portions of meat and sides. This place will satisfy any KBBQ enjoyer.

Aside from the wait, I loved the neon lights and variety of sides. I like that you can order the side from your phone. The volcano egg was very steamy and big portion of corn in them cheese! Service was good on time was you're seated.

The food here is amazing, 5 stars for sure! The majority of the staff was very attentive and helpful during our visit. The reason I took 2 stars away is that they didn't give us the full 90 minutes. I got a text at 619pm that our table was ready and at 722pm they came to tell us it was last call for us and we were no longer able to order any other food. Another reason I docked them starts is that there was an older lady who kept coming over and lowering our flame. We would ask for it to be raised and she would make her way to us shortly after to lower it while pretending she was checking in on us. I say pretending because she wouldn't wait for an answer. At the end of our meal we asked about the ice cream included with our meal and she was not very happy about us asking. If they don't want people asking for what they advertise then don't make it part of the meal. Would I go back? Yes I would go back because like I said the food was amazing! But I would definitely have a very visible timer going to make sure I get the correct amount of time.

This place is so reasonable and good. Most KBBQ places are super heavy but not this place. The cuts of the meats are super light so it's enjoyable and it makes you want more. The sides are great and the service is QUICK. I went during lunch and it was such perfect timing. It's a small place so this place gets filled up quick. The ambiance is super chill. Index would go back. There is also three different menu's to choose from. However, i wouldn't get pork skin, takes too long to cook. Everything else is fire.

This place used to be amazing for the price, quality & service. However I recently visited and was very disappointed. The prices have gone up and they now add 18% gratuity for a party of 3 adults and my 2 year old!!!!!! That is unheard of. Is that even legal?! It is not listed on their menu nor is it disclosed anywhere by the establishment/employees. They have ACs and didn't bother turning them on with 90+ degree weather mixed with the heat of the grills... won't be back here again.

First order of business is the KimChi. Best, and I mean BEST I've ever had in my life. They unfortunately don't sell it for you to buy bc it's made in house; I asked. Service is friendly and on top of their game, plus ordering is easy via QR code. Prices are reasonable and yes it's unlimited but portions are better than other places! The atmosphere is fun with K-pop and the Vanilla ice cream at the end is so good. Just a nice chill place to go that you always know what you're gonna get is good

This place has really good food. You get a ton of it. The atmosphere is fun and loud. Get ready for K-pop to be playing and people to be having a good time. The fun part is you get to cook your own food. Lots of different sides to choose from to enjoy with your meat. They do now have tortillas, which is pretty cool too.

Im leaving this review for management. I came here recently and we were given dirty grills with burnt bits on it. When we requested a new grill the waiter was annoyed and said well they are all gonna be like that and they sanitize them anyways. Which was loud and wrong. We have been coming here since this place was flower pig and have never been given a grill like that. We could scrape remains off of it both grills and the replacement he brought had actual food between the grill. The grills are not being cleaned properly and a waiter should never tell a customer they give out dirty grills all the time, but they're sanitized so it doesn't matter. I love this place I hope management addresses the issue. The grills are usually clean and oiled.

I haven't been here in a long time and I must say it did not disappoint me. It's a great spot for some kbbq and it's pretty cheap compared to some other spots! The staff were really kind and attentive with us. They have physical menus, but they are also integrating a system where you scan a qr code for the menu and can order directly from there as well. It was pretty neat albeit a bit off sometimes because we would put in an order and not everything would go through. Luckily all the meats did though! Once they polish it up I'm sure it will be just fine! Definitely recommend if you're looking for some quick cheap kbbq and don't expect too much when it comes to quality!

Been here at least few times before they renovated with the iPad and everything. Food// Menu C which was what we a group of 5 tried recently which includes galbi, a variety of pork and beef options, a couple of shrimp options, several squid options, and appetizers like egg rolls, steamed egg and kimchi stone fried rice. All meats especially galbi marinated well. Seafood optins are def more limited compared to beef and pork. Steamed egg was flavorful. Fried rice wasn't outstanding. Plenty of banchan which your actually order from a tablet. Service// Relatively good service but when ordering banchan from the tablet, you don't necessarily know how long it would take and you do have to wait 10min before ordering more ie 10 more items. Ambiance// Your typical Korean music. Having been here before they had their tablet, it's cleaner and more organized.

Food: good meat selection but.... Why am I paying $2.99 extra for tofu soup with no meat? Why when ordering, meat comes out first before the sides! We are told to order from the iPad but the sides don't come out or not correct. Service: under staffed Billing: deceiving and their reasoning seems shady Pro Tip: don't order tofu soup, the more demanding the more they pay attention to you, skip the sirloin or ribeye because it's tough as hell

Red Castle has 3 different tiers with their most affordable option being at $22.99 which comes with all the best classics like brisket, bulgogi, and pork belly. Love that this spot offers thinly sliced pork belly for a crispier texture! You can also order all your fave banchan dishes like fish cake, japchae, and kimchi through a personal tablet at your table. Don't forget to order a scoop of ice cream at the end

Although I only stop by here a couple times throughout the year... I'm never disappointed. Amazing service even though the wait times can be long. It's worth it. The ambiance inside is super nice and clean. The food is amazing and the people that work there seem to enjoy what they do. They are quick, responsive, and super friendly. I definitely recommend this location!

5 star food for quality 1 star ordering policy, flexibility, customer service I contemplated writing this review for a while because this is actually my fave affordable AYCE in Socal due to the large variety of banchan and decent meat quality. I would still recommend this restaurant for 2-3 people. However, the recent ordering policy changes have made the experience undesirable for larger parties, and so I recently find myself looking elsewhere for family dinners. What I like: - Really nice variety of banchan - Decent meat quality for AYCE - Ice cream at the end is good What I really dislike, that has made the experience cheap: - Order policy is inflexible. My family is a party of 5-6 and their max order policy is very small and there is no consideration of party size. See photo of the max amount of meat they would bring out (it's blurry but you get the idea). We came hungry, were sat at a table with one grill, waited a while for meat to come and then cook, then finally had a few pieces each before we had to try to flag down the waiter again, which took a while because they ere wtoo busy helping other people because the restaurant is understaffed. We left unfulfilled because we weren't full at the end of the time limit. - Ordering banchan is limited to every 10 min. I would support this policy except the waiter never brings out everything we order. I've come here many times now, and there hasn't been a single time I received everything I ordered. So we only get part of the order and then they don't come back out and then we can't order more. - My parents came once on their own, and on their first banchan order, they accidentally pressed order before finishing. Instead of accommodating the first mistake, the waiter made them wait the full 10 min to order again on the ipad. - I came here once with a friend and they forgot her side order for 45 minutes even though she asked over 5 times.

Been going to this spot for a few months now and it is amazing. the quality of meat for the price can't be beat. all the side are great love the potato salad it's my favorite. the service is also amazing they get you in as quickly as possible sometimes the wait is long but definitely worth the wait!!

We came here at least 6X for the last 2 yrs since my cousin (his favorite place) introduced it. Our 1st couple time were great, staff is nice and attentive and the foods came out quickly. Then it went down hill from there. We came around 3-4-5pm, avoiding the traffic time here (we normally see ALOT of people stood outside this place for yrs. And even we're within 5 tables in services, we have to sign in and waited for 10mins , then we got seated. We placed our ordered on the table tablet, it didn't work...we have to flag down someone and got moved then placed the orders. The drinks (beers & waters) came out quickly and 10mins later, 1/3, of the foods came out...we ate and waited then flagged a server for our foods...we ordered 2nd round and waited and we have to do the same flagged server. Keep in mind that we're within 10 tables occupied the place since we came early. Servers are not friendly, they seem not want to be here at all - not all servers but 96%. The price tag is very reasonably but it's not worth it to flag server all the time. The meats are good and well marinated and tasty but so do other places. The meat portions is small so if you came with 3-4 people, after one bite of each order, you literally have to have awhile for next portion to come out....Will take a long break before coming back, even my cousin has the same issue and he and his family are here for decades. The place is clean with funky decor and plenty of parkings...its smell of the grilled foods so... you will smell after you're done eating. I do think this place deserves at least a 4 but after 3-4X of bad services...i have to lower the points.

Red castle is a great place to take the family it has great food and drinks and a wide variety of meats The meats were truly the best very tender and well seasoned I recommend trying the pork belly so delicious Overall a truly great experience and customer service was amazing will be coming back soon

In this economy, high quality KBBQ at $22.99 is unheard of!!! We could see that Red Castle KBBQ is a popular spot for the locals since it was pretty crowded at 3pm on Friday. We ordered from Menu C, priced at $29.99 (not bad at all), and tried beef tongue, ribeye steak, brisket, beef belly, short rib finger, corn cheese, and so much more! Beef belly is my fave tho! So delicious and service was super attentive! Gonna come back with my friends and family

This is the only red castle the best one we love this place you should come and see .they are so fast and helpful

I had a terrible experience here. The waiters are incredibly rude they treat you like you're eating for free or like you're doing them a favor by being there. There's no sense of customer service or basic respect. I came to enjoy a meal, not to be made to feel unwelcome. Definitely not coming back.

Good value for the price and for 2 people the wait time is not bad at all. Very busy and the service can slow down a bit depending how busy they get. Meat was good but wish they had an in-between for pork belly, its either very thick or very thin. Place can get smokey too.

I've been coming to Red Castle for over a year now, and I'm never disappointed. The meat is always fresh and marinated to perfection. Expect a wait, but it's worth it. They have an iPad system where you can check your name and get a text when your table is ready, which is very convenient. My favorite item on the menu is their egg volcano soup I've never had anything like it. Absolutely delicious! The ambience is great, with good music always playing. Customer service is A1, and the place is very clean. I recommend Red Castle over any other Korean BBQ spot.
