Sizzle Korean Barbecue

The food and services were incredible. You can really taste the quality of the meat - and the server cooked everything perfectly. The experience it itself was great. The issue is (as shown in the pictures the beer price is very misleading. I don’t mind paying $12 for 16oz (if I know I’m doing it), however, when the menu clearly states 21oz for $12, and you are brought a 16oz - its a bit insulting. Quite frankly, it is thievery…. I stated the problem to the staff, expecting them to make it right, but they said they would let the manager know - as still brought me a check with my beer at full price. Hopefully you guys fix this in future. If you do - I’ll update my review accordingly.

This place was the absolute best Korean BBQ I have ever had! My aunt and I went Friday afternoon about 10 minutes after opening and we were greeted so warmly by the manger upon arrival. The service was excellent from management (Giovanni) and our waiter (Robin) and it was a one of a kind experience. Not only were they were understanding and cautious of allergies, but the food was to die for. The meat was delicious and the beef combo was perfect for two people! Amazing amazing amazing in every single way possible! Will definitely be back!

In my personal opinion, the beef was a little dry. The Bing Soo was great. The soy sauce helped make the beef less dry but still. The atmosphere and experience were phenomenal. I would still recommend the place

A bit disappointed in their clear noodle beef and veggies dish. Came out too oily no other flavors could be felt the prices of meet but so little it is hard to grab with chop sticks and it is cut in small squares like the ends of some other beef dish. Had to ask for extra sauces to fix the flavors so I could actually eat it

We came in with a group of 9 on Sunday June 1st around 4pm. We weren’t that hungry and we got a small package of beef and pork. Which was enough for each of us to have a bite of everything. We were in Scottsdale to celebrate our friends bachelorette weekend and Pham and Jonny were our servers. They were super kind and got bingsoo on the house for the homegirls bachelorette. 🫶🏻 Jonny gave us a list of recommendations for clubs to go to. We appreciated the gesture because we are from out of town. The food was also flavorful and the meat was super tender.

I and my friend went to have a meal in the afternoon, they took us right away. We really enjoyed the food and the service, restaurant's decorations looks very nice. All of the dishes are so good, but the mango bingsu just fine, didn't have condensed milk. Anw that's worth

We had dinner at Sizzle KBBQ to celebrate my son’s HS graduation with the family and while the food is always amazing, the service was exceptional on this night. We had a large family group and the staff catered to our needs. Gianni pulled out all the stops and made the experience very special. Josh, our server, was attentive and on top of our service. Overall, the team at Sizzle did a superb job and ensured we were happy and taken care of. This type of hospitality is not common nowadays and the service was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be coming back again.

I was craving some good Korean BBQ while in Arizona for work travel and stumbled across this spot. I’d never been before and was excited to try it out! Unfortunately, it was a bit tricky as a solo customer, most of the BBQ combos start at over $100 and are meant for two people. As much as I love food, I wasn’t about to drop that kind of cash just for myself especially since I have a per diem. Luckily, I pivoted to a few appetizers and a tasty soup and verything I ordered was absolutely delicious! The seafood pancake was crispy and packed with flavor, the beef soup was rich and comforting, and the dumplings were just chef’s kiss. Super savory, full of depth, and totally hit the spot. The service was warm and friendly, and they had some fun cocktail options too, which made the experience even better. I’d love to come back with a friend next time so I can try the full BBQ spread!

A great place to have an authentic kbbq experience with quality meat. The side dishes and soy bean soup, steamed eggs were all good, and the meat quality was excellent. Especially the marinated galbi was chef's kiss. 10/10

I almost cried. My husband and I came to Phoenix from LA to visit Sedona, and on our third day, we couldn't help but search for Korean food. We gave Sizzle a chance, and my husband and I hadn't been touched (감동) this much by the taste of kbbq in a long time (since we live in SoCal). The food was very very authentic, and the server was very attentive and gave us a high end experience of Korean barbecue, where they grill and cut all the meat for you. The ambience of this place is TOP NOTCH. The lighting is perfect for a date spot or a friends get together or business meeting! Anyway, here is our top five tips as a Korean on how to have a authentic experience in this restaurant: 1. Order the beef combo We recommend choosing a. Brisket, b. Kkotsal, c. Outside skirt, d. marinated rib, and e. bean paste soup. 2. Order a rice per person & eat it with the soup. 3. Ask for garlic & roast it on the grill. 4. Roast the kimchi with the brisket & eat together. (Usually roasted kimchi pairs well with fatty meats) 5. We got one glass of merlot and split it because we didn't want to drink too much. It was a perfect amount to casually sip between bites of meat. 6. All of the side dishes are refillable so ask your server for more! (But as a courtesy, try to ask them all at once for multiple dishes, instead of asking them one at a time.) The price range is as if you went to a fancy steakhouse. Except it is way healthier than a steakhouse. If you don't want to drop that much money, there are also entrees like soups and dishes that are not kbbq. If we ever come back to Phoenix again, we will definitely be coming back!! 사장님 자랑스럽습니다!

I lived super close to sizzle when I lived in Scottsdale back in 23 and I really regret not trying sooner!!!!! Went with a large group and was SO impressed by management & the service we received. Management was so transparent and helpful and made our time at the restaurant even better. On top of that the quality of the meal was amazing. One of our servers cooked for us which was insanely helpful. We got the beef combo & I definitely recommend!!! Other pictures are from the rest of our group.

We visited this location while my brother was in town and everything was top notch. We ordered the beef combo for 4 plus kimchi rice and some noodles. Safe to say it was more than enough food for all. Great service, lively atmosphere, and a perfect spot for a family night.

Great service and food here at Sizzle. I particularly enjoy the quality of meat served compared to some other Korean BBQ places. I enjoy the large beef combo with my sister to split even though the serving listed is for 3-4 people.. There are 5 pairings to choose one option from each pairing. I chose the beef brisket, rib eye, seasoned boneless short rib, marinated thinly sliced beef, and kimichi stew. It so fun to watch the team cook the meats while we watxh then when ready you can eat off the grill. The selection of Bam Chan is great. My favorite is the cucumber kimichi and of the salads the green onion salad The sauces are great flavor enhancements to the meat. The Kimichi Fried Rice is usually really tastey but this time around the rice tasted overcooked and lacked flavor. After tasting this I wished I would have ordered the Korean dumplings instead. Overall the ambiance is very nice. Well lit and clean dining area.

Finally got the chance to visit Sizzle to attend a birthday dinner, and I could not be more impressed! This KBBQ has high-quality meats, outstanding service, and fantastic sides. Plus, they take care of the flipping for you, so you can simply enjoy your perfectly cooked meal -- and there's no burnt stovetops smoking up your clothes and hair. Upon our server's recommendation, our group of seven ordered two large beef combos, which gave us a chance to try every option available. The beef belly was melt-in-your-mouth good, especially with the sweeter dipping sauce, while all the marinated meats were perfectly seasoned and allowed a nice crisp to form on the meats. I highly recommend the savory, lightly spiced soybean stew, which includes tender and fatty beef. However, the kimchi stew was excellent as well! All in all, I'd say two combos was the perfect amount for seven (maybe a tad short for eight). It includes steamed egg and a wonderful assortment of banchan with acidity that balances the meat. The strawberry lemonade soju cocktail is also fantastic if you like drinks with a lighter alcohol flavor without being too sweet. Sizzle will definitely be my go-to KBBQ for special occasions now!

Korean bbq is one of our favorites. I liked this place I just think it's a bit overpriced. We came for my son's bday and they don't do anything special for birthdays which was surprising. I think we will stick to Gen at TMP. We love the AYCE option!

So, mixed review on the food. Most of the meat was delicious. Some was okay. For sides we had dumplings (delicious) and kimchi stew (a bit soggy *blech*). The service was mediocre. The standard "let's not clean empty plates off the table" that is now rampant in Phoenix restaurants was in full swing here. Otherwise, they cook the food for you, which is nice if that's not your thing.

Was incredible! My glass noodle craving was filled and off the charts! Delicious! And the soup my daughter had was really good!!

Wow! Great Korean BBQ in Scottsdale! I will say I'm no expert in this area, but after seeing so many delicious pictures from fellow yelpers enjoying their KBBQ, and knowing mine never looked like theirs, I figured I was doing something wrong. So I convinced a co-worker, who happens to be Korean, to take a smaller group and treat us all to having it done right. This place was different for me, as the server cooked all of the food for us. I think we ordered some type of combo that had various meats and such. The marinated meats were much better flavored than the plain stuff. I still didn't know what some of the stuff was I was eating (especially the bowls of stuff on the side). Everything was delicious though, and I was glad we came here. The meal was pricey, but I guess if you go to a $19.99 AYCE place, you're going to get crap. This one was good! I may venture out and try some others on my own after seeing how it's done right.

Service here was terrible! The host literally made it seem like we were an inconvenience to be there. I'm not making it up he made a face and everything. When we asked if it was an issue us being here he said "no I was just surprised there is a lot of you that's all". Will not be back

The hygiene issue seemed urgent. All the workers dry the serving dishes, utensils between serving tables with dirty green towels. and work attics are very unprofessional. we ordered meat set however, they served rice and soup way early and we waited meat to grill about 20 minutes after we finished all the rice. overall, this place is very disorganize. They seriously needs a someone to manage. gives bad impression of Korean restaurant.

Stopped in for a late night dinner around 9:30pm last Sunday with 5 others. It wasn't too busy so we were seated right away. We ordered the beef combo (pretty sure it was the large combo) and I think we added an order of the beef brisket and pork belly as well. Banchan, salads and sauces were included. Large combo selection ($145): Beef Belly Boneless Short Rib Marinated Short Rib Outside Skirt Meat Kimchi Stew + Beef Brisket ($45) + Pork Belly ($40) + Steamed Egg ($5) + Mango Bingsoo ($13) Everything was delicious! Quality of meat here never disappoints and the service is always great. Non AYCE kbbq spots are always better in my opinion. Quality over quantity. We finished with a Mango Bingsoo which was really good! Perfect during summer months. I didn't see the bill so Im not sure how much the total was. Prices shown above were found on the online menu. Definitely recommend if you're wanting good quality meats!

Sizzle is a great place if you're looking for high quality KBBQ! I came here as a group of 3 and the large beef combination was perfect for the amount of people we had. They also cook, flip, and cut the meats for you which was great and their ventilation really reduced the Smokey smell. The service was relatively quick and they were attentive to when they were cooking. The sides of kimchi and other pickled vegetables went great with the meat as well as the sauces and spices. The combo also came with a kimchi stew which was delicious and a steamed egg which was also pretty good.

There's not many KBBQ spots in Scottsdale but this place outdoes it!! Always serving high quality meat and even though it's a little pricier... you definitely get your bang for buck here. My favorite is the kimchi soup!!

We paid 517 for 5 adults and 2 children.The food was not very good.The meat was very tough.I think we got robbed.I will not ever recommend anyone to ever go there.I also will never go there.It was insane!!!

Everything had incredible flavor, authentic and high quality. We were sad they didn't have the potato salad ban chan while we were there, but everything was still incredible. We would for sure come back. Best meat was the wagyu and bulgogi! Restaurant has elevated vibes and service was great.

One of my absolute favorite Korean BBQ spots! The quality of the meats is always top-tier, everything is super fresh, and the service is consistently friendly and attentive. But I have to shout out the kimchi Stew. It's honestly to die for. Perfectly fermented, just the right amount of spice, and totally addictive. I could come here just for that alone! If you're craving authentic Korean flavors and a fun dining experience, this place never disappoints.

Place was very nice and clean and have the metal smoke free cookers. Won't leave smelling like kbbq. Service was great and attentive. They cook your meat for you and always made sure you had refills of what you needed. Got the beef combo for $145 which was steep but all meats we had were good. Got brisket, short rib, marinated short rib and marinated beef strips with soybean stew. They charge you $2 extra for each rice bowl which we did not know. Sucks having to pay extra for rice. Want to come back for bingsoo.

A lot of Asian food spots in Phoenix feel pretty Americanized, so I honestly didn't have high hopes when I came to Sizzle Korean BBQ. But wow, this place completely blew me away! Antonio, our server, was amazing. He took great care of us and cooked the meat really well. We like it medium rare, and it came out crispy on the outside but still juicy. You can tell the meat quality here is top-notch. He even swapped out the grill between different cuts of meat, which was such a nice touch. The small plates (banchan) were super fresh and flavorful. They also had like 3 different types of sauces, even rock salt which I thought was unique! The vibe was also very lively. It's a lot cleaner than most KBBQ spots I've been to, and the smoke vents over the grills are a game changer. You don't walk out smelling like burnt meat, which made the whole experience way more enjoyable. We also got the Mango and Strawberry bingsoo, and both were amazing! The ice was soft and fluffy, just like it's supposed to be, and the flavors were light and refreshing. If you're looking for a legit Korean BBQ spot in Phoenix, Sizzle is it. The food, the service, and the whole experience were incredible. Big shoutout to Antonio!

Came to Arizona with my family and decided on Korean Bbq.. our waiter was amazing recommended the beef for four omg!! So delicious !!! Andrew's superb service was excellent from beginning to end Will come back next trip!!! Thank you Andrew for such great service

The place is generally clean and organized, and the employees are very polite and attentive to needs of customers. The food is delicious, and is enhanced by the wonderful atmosphere of the establishment. Furthermore, the place is generally very accessible to all. I would recommend this place.

Wowww I'm impressed high-quality meat, attentive service, and lively atmosphere, amazing food we choose the Beef combo Fresh and delicious and the guy who help us is very nice his name Jose. We have a dessert it's mango. We will indeed go back again

Best dining experience we have had in years! The food was fantastic and the Korean Bbq format is super fun. Ambiance is high energy with a private feel from the booths. The star was Andrew our server who made us feel at home and literally walked us through every step of the way. It's a lot less common to have a truly great service experience these days but andrew and sizzle knocked it out of the park!

So grateful I found sizzle as I am from out of town visiting my husband who had a medical emergency and is staying at Osborn hospital. The food is a healthy change and the staff were kind and thoughtful.

I used to like this place but the people who answer the phones are rude and unhelpful. If you do not like your job...find a different one, don't be rude to loyal customers. Food is okay. Honestly Jinn BBQ is better and less expensive. Only reason sizzle is expensive is cause they have a cool layout of wood and silver platter. I don't think I will be back due to rude phone call.

We were there on July 5th Sunday. The food was good, but the service left much to be desired. Our server seemed annoyed from the start and we definitely didn't feel welcomed. It was our first visit to this Old Town Scottsdale location and unfortunately, it will be our last. The server seemed to sense our disappointment and still chose to add an 18% gratuity for our party, just two adults and three young children under 7. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

We missed the food on our recent trip to Korea and found very authentic and multi layered flavors with their quick dishes. Unfortunately, our group of 3 wanted to try the beef and pork as well. At over $100 per each meat.....ugghhhhhh. I have never seen Korean BBQ so expensive. You can not mix meats. You have to pay per meat. So we ended up with a huge tab. The beef was the best and the pork was a miss. I would definitely come back, but stick to the menu

Great time! Great to go with a group of people to split some meats. They prepare everything for you. Had a great experience.

I'm a sucker for Asian cuisine so it's given that I LOVE Korean food. Korean BBQ is on my top 5 for favorite foods. Sizzle might be a little expensive but you get what you pay for. Their service is wonderful and they do get super busy! Ambiance is great, clean environment but I feel like the location is a little small. It can get congested very quickly. Sometimes the wait will be long but since they're located at desert ridge you can shop or walk around while you wait. They have a wide selection of meats & combo's which is great if you're with a group of people, I do wish they served shrimp or seafood in general. I enjoy their sides & salads that are served at each table. I always have to order japchea and brisket as my choice of meat. This place never disappoints!

Went to celebrate my wife's bday. The experience is 5 out of 5 stars at Sizzle Kbbq Scottsdale. Yes the prices are higher and the meat is not all you can eat but the quality is so good that it justifies the price. Be aware that parking is very limited. Definitely will return again :)

We were invited to go to this restaurant tonight and it was so good! We were immediately greeted with smiles and seated. Water was served in a jug to serve yourself along with their complimentary house appetizers. We ordered the beef combo and there were 4 of us to share. The meat quality was excellent. We also ordered a side of white rice for each of us. For dessert, we ordered the mango shave ice. The food was too notch, service was with a smile and the atmosphere was elegant but casual. Will definitely go back again!

Have come back here a couple times now (clearly lol) and have had a great experience! Meat is great, service is great. Highly recommend!

The ambience is excellent. The service was phenomenal. The food was incredible. they will cook it for you. Or you can tell them you want to cook it yourself. We had the five beef combo.

Great service. Legit KBBQ in Old Town. Only gripe I'd have is the banchan was a bit lacking in amount. Otherwise, meat quality was good and everyone left happy and full! We got the beef combo for 4 and a pork belly entree. Fed our 2 college boys and my wife and I. Head there, you won't regret it.

This spot in old town is definitely one of my new favorites. I really enjoyed cooking and mixing the vegetables and sauces with our dinner. It also gave her a fantastic and fun experience with friends that were visiting from out of town to try something completely new and outside of the box, the ambience was very nice. Staff was prompt and kept refilling all of our accoutrements and extras. I will definitely be coming back.

I'm not much into Asian food, but I was impressed with this place. My husband loves Asian food so I took him here for his birthday dinner! It was quite the experience! The place is very nicely decorated and the staff there was very very helpful. The food wasn't bad but it's nothing that I really cared for but my husband absolutely loved it. I will say the ribeye steak was really good and tender but the brisket was horrible! Stay away from the brisket! The sides were cute and flavorful and overall a pretty good experience just not for me. But if you like Asian food, and if you like Korean barbecue, then this is the place for you! Enjoy it try it you'll like it! Oh yeah, and the staff cooks the food right in front of you instead of you cooking it yourself. Which is nice because that way it will be cooked properly.

I'm not going to rate it any lower than a 4 because for the kind of restaurant it is, it's fine. The quality of the food is good however it's very expensive here. You have to pay for each meat/plate you order and it adds up quickly. Definitely save this for a special occasion because if you planning to get full from here, it will cost a pretty penny. Personally, I recommend someplace with AYCE (all you can eat) to get your moneys worth for a similar quality. What I was most disappointed with was the soup serving. We got the soybean soup which was delicious, but I was expecting each of us to get our own bowl. However we got one bowl and multiple mini ones to share amongst ourselves. I cannot emphasize how hungry I still was afterwards. The experience felt as if I was sampling food and not actually getting a meal. The look of the place is very sleek and modern. It had a high end look to it which was very picture worthy. The servers themselves were great and attentive. They actually helped us cook the meat when we asked. I understand that this restaurant is not an AYCE and I will respect that. However please make the soup portions and the steam egg portions larger at least.

My wife and I favorite place from the cooks to the servers and manager they run a tight ship! Food is always consistent and great. Location is wonderful for family and friend Gianni the manager runs the place like a bootcamp, even on the busy nights are seated with the same passion.

Average and overpriced. Disappointed with the quantity of meat for the price. 5 items for $145 (beef combo!) but it only came with ban Chan, a sad sad steamed egg, and a average kimchi stew. The meat is good quality but very small quantity. I would compare their meat quality to Jin but at least Jin's quantity and price is better. The seafood pancake is way too moist and not crispy. Overpriced pancake that's not even close to the original taste. Overall it's ok. Would not be my first choice. Service is good. Interior is nice.

First time here and the food was amazing! Great quality meat. Big shout out to our chef, Andrew! He made our entire dining experience and gave the best recommendations/cooked everything to perfection! We'll definitely be coming back! (Also highly suggest the mango shaved ice!)

Came here the other night with my mom as this was her first Korean BBQ experience. Our waiter was really sweet and I could tell he was a little shy but still gave phenomenal service. The prices are more expensive than most korean bbq spots I have been to so if you're looking for a fancy korean bbq spot I would consider here. It's really clean and classy inside. You don't have to dress up to eat here but if you did want to dress up and eat here you totally could. Lastly, yes the food was really good and the drinks are 10/10

I love this place. Good food. Great environment and they have an excellent service. Their ventilation is awesome compared to others.

We came here with our family and we were a big party of 15. They accommodated us super well! The meat was such high quality and I loved how they cooked for you! I'm used to going to KBBQ and having to cook so this was a nice change. The price was actually super reasonable for everything we got! My favorite meat was the marinated short rib!

Great food, nice experienced, and quick service. I'll start with the fact it was lunch time on a Thursday and that I'm pescatarian. I've eaten at the other location before, but this one seemed a bit slow - good news was that service was quick only one other party outside of our group of 6. Several in our group hadn't tried this type of food and all were really happy and enjoyed their meals! As for the pescatarian, the seafood pancake is amazing - a must try for anyone but helps for me! Meals and orders come with sides which are really good for trying different flavors and textures. The server was great and very accommodating, and patient with our group. Parking. An be a little tricky, but that's just location driven for this part of Scottsdale. Restaurant is very well maintained and super clean.

One of the best I had. Reminds me of Hobak in Las Vegas. But missing the type of quality Hobak had. That being said, it is comparable. Ambiance had a more sophisticated feel than your typical kbbq. Wine was great

Best meal we've had in a really long time. The food was top tier. We had marinated beef short rib, kimchi fried rice, dumplings and the mango dessert. Our chef, Andrew was the best and so passionate about Korean cuisine.

From Chicago, my first time at Sizzle and it exceeded my expectations! We ordered the beef combo for 4 (about $50 per person), and we selected the beef brisket, the ribeye, and the marinated short ribs--all excellent cuts of meet and delicious! I am not the most adventurous eater but I tried just about everything, except for the steamed eggs : ) I was not surprised by how good the meat was (5/5), but I was surprised by the sauces (5/5). Our server described the barbecue sauce as spicy ketchup, and that's a good description, but it was better than that! Our waiter was very friendly and talkative, and he did an excellent job cooking the meat! Overall great vibe and experience. Everyone in our group of 4 enjoyed the food and the fun. You will too. Highly recommended!

I love the Sizzle restaurants! I hadn't been to this location yet and it did not disappoint! We got seated right away even on a Saturday evening. Our server was nice, the food was AMAZING and I can't wait to go back! The music was a little loud just a heads up for anyone wanting to have deep conversations over their meal. It was all great kpop music though so I didn't mind
