Star BBQ

1. I love the options on the AYCE Menu, and my favorite meat was the garlic pork belly! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes with a nice interior! 3. The staff was friendly and attentive! Note: There is complimentary ice cream at the entrance! Photo: AYCE meat

Star BBQ is a solid spot for KBBQ in Ktown Garden Grove! First, free parking is a big win, and the restaurant itself has a nice entrance, is super clean, and has high ceilings, so you don’t feel cramped or suffocated like in some other KBBQ places. The food is well-seasoned, and the salad was good. Highly recommend the lemonade, it’s surprisingly good! The only downside was the corn cheese, which came out cold, and the cheese wasn’t melted anymore, which was a bit disappointing. There’s no reservation, so you just have to show up and wait in line, but the staff is friendly and keeps things moving. Definitely a great spot for group gatherings if you’re in K-town Garden Grove! Would come back for sure. 4.5 out of 5

At first upon entering the facility, no greeting or smiles, just a tablet to enter your name and phone # for the wait list. The cashier I see at the front may have not noticed me entering the info, even though i am the only person at the entrance, since I was asked directly, "have you signed in" in a stern voice with a slight anger to her face, no hi or welcome to star, maybe she has had a rough day? I said "yes", she replied, "what's your name, I don't see it, I told her my name and she said, "are you sure you signed in? I said again, "yes", I even went to look at the tablet and saw the name there. "Oh now I see it, it must be slow".... I didn't say anything, first time here and the impression is that the employees must not like their position, if so they shouldn't be the first person to greet guests that are observing as I. Her name was "Ann". Anyways, , we only waited 5 mins. A waiter escorted us to our table, we informed him it was our first time and he explained how their restaurant has a 3 order per at a time process. Of course you het your side dishes and instruments for cooking. Food was adequate, not too sugary or salty, just right, depending on your meats ordered. Service is great with the waiter, his mae was "Joseph". The yogurt was just two flavors but refreshing after all that meat you hust ate. I liked that they have large tables for plates and drink space, some places you have no room for any of your beverages. Overall, a good place for family to dine, not my favorite but good price for the two nemu options. Ours was $32/ person the other was $28/person. I would ONLY give it a 3 star due to first impression of the cashier, if she could be nicer and friendlier, I would give a 4. Best surprise that wasn't told was that if you pay cash, it's 10% off your total check/bill, this I liked but they should inform the patrons .

Honest review (4/19/23) forgot to post haha was sitting in my drafts **put your name on the yelp waitlist in the front (doesn't work on the app) & pay in cash for 10% off entire order and a free beverage Soft service ice cream the strawberry taste like gogurt :) I may be pretty picky, but yeah. I would say that the quality does not match the price; however, it is an AYCE kbbq restaurant so yeah. We waited about 30-40 mins before we got seated after putting our names on the yelp waitlist. (You have to go in person) I have mixed feelings about the grill, but overall it was good. If I had to pick I would recommend the brisket, tongue (only some parts were decent), marinated beef rib, and boneless beef short rib. They weren't amazing, but it was better than I thought. I would not recommend the bottom sirloin cause it did not taste like kkotsal and small intestines. The banchans were mehh. I only liked the radish and salad. We tried the soybean soup and the soondubu which were decent and complimented the meats which I would recommend. They have a good amount of space inside and the grill is scraped when it gets too burnt so ask a server to clean it for you :)) There is also a restroom near the entrance. Taste 6/10 Visual 7/10 Texture 7/10 Service 8.5/10 I, personally, don't know if I would come back cause it's not worth it for me. But yeah I usually prefer by the portion places :)

I came here with my son to celebrate my birthday. We were so satisfied with the service, we waited for a while. But definitely worth it! Specially the baby octopuses!! 🐙

Food was great , server was polite and checked on us often

Two of us spent $70 something here. No drinking. Big portion food. Need to tell them half order or one order total. Otherwise they bring each person one order. Overall pretty good. Shrimp is good.

Star BBQ is simply incredible! The service is super fast, and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. The meat quality is next-level—so tender and flavorful. You'd think it would be expensive, but the prices are totally affordable for what you get. I am beyond satisfied and highly recommend it

IT DOES THE JOB. Okay, it's not the highest quality nor the cleanest KBBQ, but, again, it does the job and won't burn a hole into your wallet. For the lowest level dinner on a weekend, it was $27.99 with some more premium items being only 1 per person. You can add yourself to their Yelp waitlist and the wait wasn't so bad when we were there. About 20 or so minutes? At least enough time to grab a matcha from Airoma Cafe (when the cafe had no line). The parking lot can get fisted, so potentially keep that in mind. The women's restroom when I went was clean enough. I think the only con aside from the cheapness and quality factor, is that you can't adjust the fan for the stoves. Even at maximum strength, it was still blowing smoke into our friend's eyes the entire night. Pain! I think the most amusing thing of ordering the meat here is that it comes out huge semi-cold blocks. No problem since you can cook it, but I have never seen that at any other KBBQ before. Usually it's laid out on a tray or at least it's flattened, here its like they know that they're just feeding the horde. Despite this, the meat was fine, cooked normally and tasted all right. Can never go wrong with the top blade, brisket, and thinly sliced pork belly. The grill is angled so that grease and oil drop down into the vat. We also go their tofu soup and corn cheese which was decent. The steamed egg was the flattest and saddest one that I've ever seen, lots of air bubbles in it and the Korean noodle soup wasn't cooked all the way as the noodles were still blocked and stuck together. If I had to, I'd skip these 2 dishes. We also kept ordering their salad and sliced onions and garlic to enhance the flavor of food, not bad. There's free frozen yogurt at the end (turn off your brain if it doesn't look the cleanest), but the only flavor available was pineapple, no swirl, but that's alright. There were toppings too. Overall not bad for what it was.

Star BBQ has been one of my favorite kbbq restaurants in Garden Grove. This place get's extremely busy but they do offer a waitlist you can join but sometimes even the waitlist can be long. For larger party's of 7+ you do have to call in and make a reservation. Last month (September), I was in charge of planning a team dinner for the place I work for. I needed to find a place that was open late enough for some of my team members could attend without us having to close the business we work at early. The business we work for is located in Irvine and we close at 9:30pm every day so I thought Star BBQ was perfect because they close at 1am Friday-Sunday. Keeping that in mind, i wanted to make sure I picked a time that would give everyone enough time to drive over safely. I called the week of our planned date to make a reservation for 15 for 10:20pm and the host was extremely helpful with setting that reservation up for me. She also let me know that last call to order would be 12am, which was perfectly fine with me. On the day of our reservation (September 26, 2025) , some of us arrived a little earlier than our reservation time so I wanted to check-in just so it gives the staff enough time to set up our table. When I checked in, the staff let us know they could already seat us and as they walked us to our table everything was already set up for us. Keep in mind, we are a large group so of course our order would be large. Also keeping in mind that last call was going to be 12am, we made sure to order as much as we could without having to make the staff go back and forth so often. The staff were so friendly/accommodating and always checking up on us to see if we wanted to order more. I've been to Star BBQ multiple times since it's not too far from where I live but majority of my coworkers are located in Irvine and all of them have never tried this place. This was our first team dinner my work has ever had and it was a complete success. I'm so happy everyone thought it was good as well!

I tried Star for the first time and was really disappointed with the meat quality. We came here for a friend's birthday, and the group chose the cheaper option. Unfortunately, the meat selection was very limited, we ended up only ordering brisket, beef belly, and top blade. The brisket was extremely fatty. I understand brisket tends to have fat, but normally you'd expect at least a few leaner pieces. This time, every order was more than half of the meat were fatty. The top blade was heavily marinated, but even with that, I could still taste the lack of freshness. I actually had to eat it with onion and garlic just to mask the off taste, which was concerning. The only redeeming part of the experience was the service. The servers were excellent--super attentive, quick with the orders, and very friendly. I'd give service 5 stars, but unfortunately, the quality of the food is closer to a 1.

1. The options of the AYCE are good, and I really like the garlic pork belly! They also have complimentary ice cream! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! The interior has high ceilings! 3. There are only indoor seatings! They have a good number of tables and booths available! 4. The staff was friendly and attentive! They do ask clean the grill often! 5. Parking is easy! Spots are single-lined and not compact! Note: 10% discount if you pay with cash Photo: AYCE Meat

Not the same kbbq I remember. We ordered the beef belly plate and it arrived looking like mostly fat. After cooking that plate it turned out to be 100% fat and no meat - I gave the whole plate back to the server who agreed and took it back. Meat quality is not good. There are better options for affordable kbbq than Star BBQ.

I've been going to Star BBQ growing up. I've had so many great memories here and the staff here is always so fast and efficient with the service. They have affordable prices, good food worth the money, get your food fast, and is also a warm and comfortable environment. It's always lively and a place to enjoy with family and friends no matter the moment.

I don't think I would come back here when Red Castle is literally right next to it, as I found no appeal in what Star had to offer. The meats were generic and lacked unique flavor, and some of the cuts even came out frozen which was off putting. It was very loud and crowded inside as well. The service was average, not bad but not above and beyond either. They didn't really check on us and we had to call them over to make any additional orders. At the end when we got ice cream/frozen yogurt, it was alright but really didn't taste that great and left a weird feeling in the back of my throat.

First time here. Usually we are at Shik Do but they have changed a lot since the renovation. So we are expanding our area and decided to give this place a shot. We are happy we did. Quickly seated for an afternoon table. The servers were quick, polite and very attentive. Nice space between tables allowed us to enjoy our meal casually and comfortably. It was open and airy but not too loud as it got crowded. Food selection was nice based on the price we paid. We definitely are happy with our choice and excited to return.

Had a good experience with a small group of friends here for dinner! There's definitely a wait after 7-8 ish, but it wasn't too bad. There was a call for service button at our table, and all the side dishes were set up on our table when we sit down. I also love that they offer a jug of water. We ordered the menu A and there was a good amount of meat options. Our brisket was more fatty than expected but the meats were good. They also had a yogurt self serve machine and toppings bar which was very interesting and clean restrooms. My only con was the oil got on our plates and everywhere on the table. It was great to cook our meats on the grill with the strong flame but it seemed after left the restaurant, we still had a strong kbbq smell! So if there was more air ventilation inside would be great.

Overall would rate it a 3.5/5! I opted for menu A because I think it's more worth. PRO TIP: Pay with cash to get 10% off and a free soda!!! Starting off with the banchan, they were pretty underwhelming. It just didn't taste as good compared to other places.The beef loin New York steak and the bones less short rib which are the limited quantity, were very tender but needed seasoning to enhance the flavor. Even though it says limited quantity, they come out in big portions so that was nice. All the other meats such as the pork belly, pork jowl, and beef belly were good too. However the beef tongue and the beef belly came out frozen so we had to let it sit for a while. Service was very good, they constantly checked up on us and cleaned our grill without us asking. There were plenty of tables inside and when I left, I didn't smell like kbbq YAYY. I left the place eating their yogurt and it was pretty good! The pineapple yogurt was tart and very addicting. Overall would come back if I am feeling a bang for your buck kbbq!

I love this place the meat is very tasty! The servers were all super nice and attentive. I went here with my Filipino family last week and my parents loved the brisket. My favorite meat was the pork belly and corn cheese! Plenty of side dishes, including rice paper, radish paper, kimchi, potato salad, cucumbers and so much more! Would recommend eating here again!

My new regular KBBQ spot love this place Staff is great place is awesome and food is always wonderful can't go wrong

Frozen yogurt for the win! They have free frozen yogurt for you while you wait and after your dinner complete with different toppings! Combo B is okay for me since I don't usually eat other things besides the typical brisket, pork belly and beef belly. Staff were attentive and I like how they clean their grills. Very efficient and fast. Their sides could improve more but it is enough. You'll have to ask for kimchi, garlic and jalapeño separately. Lots of parking in the area and there's a happy lemon boba tea place nearby. They also have a buy one get one for a penny drink which is very good!

I drove down from LA to run a couple errands and was craving some KBBQ. A friend recommended that I go to Star BBQ so I hopped on the waitlist and waited over 30min--all just for them to tell me later that I can't eat because I came alone. I'm sure it would've been good, but I wish they had made that disclaimer clearer for people joining the waitlist online.

If you're craving all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ with top-tier meat quality and a lively atmosphere, Star BBQ in Garden Grove should be at the top of your list. This place blends traditional Korean BBQ vibes with modern service, making it a standout among the crowded KBBQ scene in the area. The meat selection is excellent--thick, juicy cuts of marinated short rib, brisket, pork belly, bulgogi, and spicy pork, all seasoned just right. Everything comes out fresh and fast, and the servers are quick to help with grilling if needed. The banchan (side dishes) are plentiful and constantly refilled, especially their kimchi and pickled radish, which pair perfectly with the meats. The AYCE pricing is reasonable considering the quality and quantity. You can tell they don't cut corners, especially with premium cuts like the galbi and ribeye. The restaurant is clean and well-ventilated, which makes a huge difference for a comfortable BBQ experience. Staff are attentive without being overbearing, and even during busy hours, service stays consistent. It gets packed during dinner, so reservations or early arrival are recommended. Highlight: Their cheesy corn side and steamed egg are must-tries--comfort food that rounds out the savory meat fest.

Perfect 5/5 would recommend to anyone !!! Food was amazing the wait was a little but nothing crazy

Second time at this place but this time the food stood out. It was rich in flavor from the bulgogi to the brisket the flavor was amazing. The short ribs were delicious. This quickly became my first choice KBBQ place. The vibe of this establishment is pretty nice and modern. Charlie was our server asked what our favorite meats were and would ask if we wanted more of those meats. She no once met my drink get to half way. I will definitely be coming back here again.

We visited Star BBQ with a couple of friends over the weekend, and although the place was pretty packed, we were pleasantly surprised at how quickly we were seated. The variety of sides was impressive, and as expected, the meat just kept coming--fresh, and well cut. All in all, it was a solid Korean BBQ experience that hit the spot.

TLDR: Among the most popular Korean BBQ spots in Garden Grove, Star BBQ delivers a lively, satisfying, and straightforward AYCE experience. It's reliable, consistent, and a great go-to whether you're rolling in solo or with a crew. At $31 for the premium menu and $28 for the regular, pricing is on par with other all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ spots in the area. The real question is whether the food and vibe work for you--and for me, Star hits the mark. The place is lively. On weekends, expect a wait that can stretch up to two hours during the dinner rush. But once you're seated, the service moves fast and the food keeps coming. It's a big restaurant with plenty of seating, so it's great for groups--I've come back many times with friends, and it's always a reliable time. The Food: Galbi (Bone-in Short Rib), 4/5: One of the standout meats. Flavorful, well-marbled, and juicy. Worth ordering more than once. Fish Cake, 4/5: A strong side dish here--savory and satisfying. Pickled Pink Radish: Not rated numerically, but it's good. Crisp and cuts through the richness of the meat nicely. Tofu Soup, 4/5: It's a small portion, but the flavor is there. A great warm-up dish between meats. Bean Sprouts, 3/5: Just okay. A standard filler item that does its job but doesn't stand out. Potato Salad, 2/5: A bit too sweet and possibly heavy on the mayo. Not for me. Cucumber Kimchi, 3/5 (Me) I thought it was fine, nothing special. My friend enjoyed it more than I did. Would I Return? Absolutely--and I have, many times. It's a large, accommodating space with consistent food and a fun atmosphere. Star BBQ has become my benchmark for what a solid, no-fuss Korean BBQ experience should be. If you're looking for a reliable KBBQ spot with good flavor and good energy, this is it.

This is our got to place when we're in town.. food is great! Service is quick and the ambiance is 10/10... I would recommend and keep coming back

This is for the late KBBQ eaters, their yelp hours say they close at 1am but they do last call at 11:30pm which doesn't make any sense to me. If they close at 1am then last call should be at least 12am... gives you one hour to close the restaurant. So lame Don't get me wrong, I love this place when I get a chance to eat here but I hate the fact that they don't honor their store closing hours. Why close at 1am if you end last call at 11:30pm.

Arrived at 5pm when they eat and honestly probably the best time to go! Waiters were nice and quick to come out with the meats. The portions are a decent size so careful with that as they charge for leftovers like any other places. Nice to see they have a 10% discount and free sodas if you pay in cash. Dessert was a frozen yogurt machine with pineapple and vanilla flavors (unfortunately didn't try it).

I've been a huge STAR BBQ fan for many years now. They offer Menu A for $31.99 and Menu B for $27.99, with an additional 10% off and a free soda if you pay with cash. I usually stick to the brisket, beef belly, beef tongue, and beef short rib. I absolutely love their soybean soup and all their banchan, especially the radish paper. The sauces pair perfectly with the meal. The service is friendly and attentive--they even clean the grill without being asked. What ended the meal perfectly was the pineapple yogurt soft serve/ice cream. Since we like the standard meats for KBBQ, STAR BBQ is the perfect place for us.

Went here with a group of 7 friends, it was pretty cool. The outside was nice and cool for pictures (bonus) Lots of meat selections, the staff was very patient and attentive, explaining all the meat types and checking in. The interior and table set up feels very spacious and nice, I would definitely recommend for group hangouts (small/large) I would choose this place over super noisy and crowded ones like Gen! The free frozen yogurt is definitely a plus.

It was my husbands and mine first time coming here and we loved it!!!!! Food was delicious! Service was amazing and the ambiance was amazing! I would Work on the ice cream because it was a bit gross. But overall good experience

I don't even know where to start. Not what it used to be, maybe change in ownership. Quality of meat, not tender and so much fat. Service was horrible, took a long time to order meat and they just slap the plate in the table. See is made the ambiance not welcoming.

This place is awesome! My coworkers and I would come here altogether after finishing up work around 7:30pm. We always have a great time eating and talking about random stuff while grilling the meat. Our go-to 3 top meats are brisket, beef tongue, and pork belly. The service can sometimes be slow or fast depending on which server you get. I never once had any problems with this place because the meat here are high-quality and a good hangout place to have conversations with friends or family while cooking up the food. We will be back soon!

Amazing service and food. I enjoyed their sides and meats. We also enjoyed their flat griddle which was in my opinion a better way of crisping the brisket and sliced pork belly and intestine. The beers and soju were a good choice when you buy one, you get the other one for 1cent. Plus 10% off the bill and a free soda when you pay with cash! We will be coming back. FYI. There is a long wait when you get there around 7pm to like 8pm on a Saturday. Thank you Stat BBQ for an amazing meal.

This is one of my favorite KBBQ restaurants to go to because of the quality of the meat, price points, and the location. I typically order several types of items including the galbi, bulgogi, beef belly, steak, shrimp, and tofu soup. For some reason, the initial orders of the meat are usually good and then progressively become much more fatty (especially the beef belly). Tofu soup may look red, but it isn't really spicy at all. This can be off putting for some people. They used to make fried rice, but they haven't done it for a while now. They have various sides available, make sure to request for radish paper if you like that since they do not give it by default sometimes. They have 2 menu options, so make sure to review which one is worth getting. Service is hit or miss, whether the place is busy or not. There have been instances in which I had to press the ringer several items before someone comes to the table. Sometimes the staff will forget to bring a water refill or a requested side item. The interior of the place is clean for the most part. I do like how they are constantly playing KPOP in the background. You can join the waitlist via Yelp ahead of time which is convenient as this place tends to be busy in the evenings, especially on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

I haven't been here in a very long time. It's still as busy as I remembered it but luckily we came early for a weeknight dinner (around 6 pm) so there was no wait. That changed 30 minutes later when suddenly more people came. For the price, the meat quality is just ok. There are other KBBQ places that offer better cuts of meat for around the same price. The service is average. Pay with cash if you want a discount (see photo).

I was really looking forward to trying Star BBQ in Garden Grove, but overall, the experience was disappointing. The service was quite slow we waited a long time for both the initial order and refills, which made the meal feel dragged out. When the food did arrive, the quality of the meat just wasn't there. It didn't taste fresh, and the cuts were tough and lacked flavor, which is especially important at a Korean BBQ spot. The side dishes were only okay at best. They didn't taste very fresh, and there wasn't much variety compared to other Korean BBQ places in the area. On top of that, the atmosphere made things worse the restaurant was super loud, to the point where it was hard to carry on a conversation at the table. With so many great Korean BBQ spots around Orange County, I'd say there are much better options nearby. Unfortunately, Star BBQ didn't live up to expectations.

Good food, low prices :$33. Please made the reservation to save the time. Good service,

A very popular and great KBBQ AYCE that's been around forever. They have great selection of some tasty and quality meats. The biggest downside? A weekend dinner for a party of 4 might have you wait an hour or more. We tried a ton of different types as you should, but ended up sticking to mostly the brisket and tongue. If you can pay with cash and you get that 10% off and free soft drinks lol Food: 8/10 Service: 8/10 Atmosphere: 7/10 Value: 7/10

5 Stars for Star KBBQ!!! I've been coming to Star for many years now and will happily drive the 45 l.a. mins. Have been all over LA for KBBQ and this place is always consistent. I usually come with a large group close to opening time on the weekend. The quality and amount of food is pretty decent for the AYCE option. The staff is always super friendly and attentive. We love Star KBBQ!!

Been visiting Star BBQ with friends more frequently recently and surprised at how much I enjoy dining here. But here are my key takeaways: 1. The AC in the summer is almost non existent. So imagine meat sweats on top of summer sweats. 2. Not all meats have decent quality and not all times were stellar. Some visits the brisket was fattier than the belly. 3. Banchan is limited. Servers spend a lot of time conversing amongst each other than taking orders. Some rounds were inconsistent; we would wait 1 min for our order or 15 mins. There really wasn't a system in place. Flagging servers down was difficult, even with a table call button. This place is truly a 3.5, but I'll round up to a 4. Parking: ample but tight, like door ding tight Ambiance: loud with kpop blasting on the TVs Food: decent, better than other kbbq in the area but not better than Grams Yelp waitlist is a nice touch, and they do take large party reservations!

Open late on weekends that what we like since we get off work late on Friday night. Food is variety options also delicious and reasonable price. Big area and clean. Keep it in mind if you pay CASH you'll get 10% off and free soda. That's a good deal. Ohhh and don't forget to have pineapple soft serve before you leave.

Been to this place many times and it always hits the spot. Even though their prices are super affordable, the quality of the meat is still great. One of the only places you can still get beef tongue for a decent price. Their garlic pork belly and marinated short ribs are great too. Love their bean sprouts and cucumber sides, and the steamed egg is delicious and fluffy! I think they changed their salad and it isn't my favorite but who goes to kbbq to eat salad anyways. Make sure to round out your meal with their free ice cream. Their yogurt and pineapple yogurt flavors ARE SO GOODDD please keep these flavors forever (tastes like dole whip and yakult). Service is always great, we never have to ask for them to clean the grill they always come around right when it's needed. Make sure to bring cash for 10% off and free drinks!

I've been here for my birthday with some friends and an acquaintance and we've really enjoyed our time here. It was probably the birthday excitement, but it was a great time. The interior was very nice and had a "cozy" feeling to it (lol), and the meats were very good. We couldn't stop ordering more. The service we received was also great. We understood and saw how busy the place was, so we tried not to ask for too much, but some of us couldn't help it. Despite that, he was very kind, and we are very grateful and appreciative of what he's done for us. I hope to come back here again if I ever visit the area again.

a go-to for korean bbq! they have the best beef brisket and 10% off your bill + a soft drink if you pay in cash. for the price, Star is the best value and taste. with the cheaper menu, you get everything you need! the service is always attentive and fast, i've never complained about the service. they play kpop inside so it's a fun atmosphere. i love the soft serve machine as well. they mix up the flavors, and it's always nice to get a sweet treat after kbbq. will come again for my next kbbq craving!

I'd like to start off by saying that I have been coming to this particular, Korean barbecue restaurant for over 20 years. I knew the old owners before it was star barbecue before they remodeled it. It hasn't been the same for a few years, but I think recently it just tanked I have never in my 25 years of going to different Korean bbq's i've never been served beef brisket that had no meat on it. It was literally just white fat even after we cooked it completely It was complete gristle. The Bulgogi was equally disappointing. We were told it would be between 20 minutes to 55 minutes before they could seat us it took over an hour and a half we noticed that a lot of parties that were just showing up were being served before us because they were in larger groups. The comments between the people waiting was obvious big groups go first and groups of two or three have to sit back and wait often sharing tables split down the middle. You're literally sitting arm to arm with a stranger that's what we did the server was very sweet and attentive she brought us everything we asked for quickly and in great portions so when I decided to tip her well I was sad to learn that she was not able to keep the tip, but that it went to the restaurant owners Like Seriously ?? Sad to say I won't ever be coming back.

Star BBQ is located in a plaza with plenty of available parking. We went for dinner and were immediately seated. The inside seating area is nicely spaced out and had good vibes with K-pop music playing in the background. The restaurant offers two menu options and both offer a good variety of meat. They also provide a nice variety of sides with generous portions. The service was outstanding, the staff were very attentive and quick with picking up the used dishes and putting in new orders. For dessert, there is an ice cream machine with two flavors and was a nice way to end the meal! If you would like to save some money on your bill, it is advised to pay in cash. The restaurant advertises that by paying cash, you will get 10% off and a free soft drink.

We've been loyal to StarBBQ for the past 3 years. We go once a week, sometimes twice, but today will be the last time we will come here. The place wasn't busy, we had one party of two ahead of us. Estimated wait time of 11-26 minutes which is normal. After 30 minutes, we were still waiting and noticed a table of 8 getting sat before us. That party came way after us so I asked the girl up front why and she said "because they had a table for 8 and not 4". There were plenty of empty tables and they could have sat us at any of those and it would've been ok. They could have also told us ahead of time to prevent us walking out, but this poor management and lack of awareness means I'll no longer be coming back. We waited with two kids over 30 minutes to get this kind of treatment is rude. Why have a waitlist if you aren't going off the waitlist?

Grillin' and Grubbin' We've visited Star BbQ plenty of times and will continue to come back! Everything is delicious here and well worth the price. This most recent time we came on a Sunday, right as it opened about 4:15p we got the lower-priced menu, which has about 7 less options, but still plenty available to fill up on. First off, every table starts off with mini-plates of potato salad, spicy cucumbers, a salad, sprouts, and rice paper and sauces for dipping. As for the meats, try em all!! We love the brisket and the bulgogi. We also found out on this visit that you can request smaller tasting portions if you want to sample something new to you. Our server let us know of that, and let us try a new release sauce that may become a regular item. So tasty. Greets vibes, everyone grilling and enjoying tasty bites. After several rounds of food, grab a soft serve on the way out, you've completed a great night. Can't wait for our next visit here

my friends and i decided to get some kbbq on a sunday so there was a little bit of a wait but it wasn't too bad, i'd say maybe 10-15 mins. Our server was a bit silly, he could never really hear me since i was sitting in the corner but speaking louder didn't help either so sometimes it got awkward but over all the meat quality was good and so was the corn cheese and ice cream bar after.

Great service, meats came out so quickly. Our plates were cleared before I could even set down an empty plate! Sunday at 5pm was no wait, tables starting filling up quickly after. Soft serve included, strawberry and caramel flavors. Ambiance: loud and lively, hard to hear across the table. I like how the tables are divided up, there's a wall between some tables that really offers privacy. Tip: pay cash and receive 10% off and free sodas.

It's been about 7 years since I've been here and I was looking forward to the kimchi fried rice (which is not on the menu) but it is cooked directly on your grill! I must say it was worth it!! Our table chose menu A which was $31, our favorite cuts were thinly sliced pork belly, short rib, and bulgogi. Staff was very attentive - we showed up right as they opened and man did it fill up quickly, by the time we were done there was a line around the building! They also offer free ice cream after your meal - but unfortunately the machine was broken at the time we went. Most places switch out grills and I love that this place doesn't they scrape it clean which means your grill is still nice and hot - ready for whatever is next! Also if you pay cash you get 10% off and a drink is included, don't worry If you don't have cash they have an ATM there!

I love this AYCE bbq place because the meat is good and they give good portions. Service is awesome too, we were pretty crazy and loud and they tolerated us. But ya I love going here and they have really good steamed egg and side dishes. This place is always crowded so come early! Also if you have a big group everyone has to be present before you get seated.

Recently went here in search for good affordable AYCE kbbq and it was nice! We got there for dinner and it was decently busy with a good amount of waiting. The meats were great - loved the beef tongue! Of course ordered cheese corn and many refills of rice wraps and kimchi. I thought it was cool how the grill is tilted down to clear up the juices and oils. They have a frozen yogurt machine with a toppings bar which was alright but refreshing for sure. The lights are dimmed down and it was cozy but definitely loud. Definitely going to come back if I'm in the area again!

Star BBQ was such a treat! Everything about this place was great & we loved that it was a stand alone restaurant- not connected to any of the other stores in the area. They really made BBQ the Star of the show ;) The place was super clean and easy to find. Lots of parking and the building has great character. Weird flex, but just go with it! Our waiters were very attentive and patient with us. Brought us more sides without us asking which is always appreciated. Everything was great- food was legit! We went with the $27.99 price tag which was Menu B & was sooo full off of it. Great choice if you're looking for just simple cuts of meat. They did also offer a few seafood dishes that I heard were really good too. Head's up: you get 10% off entire check and a free soda if you pay with cash! I'm sure this place gets busy, so be sure to check them out right when they open. That's what we did and had no trouble getting seated for a party of five.
