Ten-BBQ

Ten BBQ is the place to go when you crave some KBBQ~! They have an AYCE section as well as Premium Meat combos. You cant go wrong with either selection, but I personally go with quality over quantity! These combos are my bread and butter and their portions are huge! Pork ribs are to die for. The side dishes that come out as you order are also very good! Stop on by to try some of the best kbbq LA has to offer!

Went here for a birthday dinner and had a great time. Very diverse selection of meats which we all enjoyed. Will definitely be going back.

S Hi everyone, I wanted to share an exciting dining recommendation with all of you, especially for those who appreciate Korean barbecue experiences. There is a fantastic spot in the bustling heart of Los Angeles shopping district that I recently had the pleasure of visiting. It is conveniently located just a stone's throw away from the iconic Beverly Center. Whether you're planning a romantic date night, a fun brunch with friends, or a casual gathering with family, this place is a must-visit. What makes this place stand out is not just the delectable food offerings but also the impeccable customer service. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience. The quality of the food is exceptional - each bite bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Additionally, they boast an impressive selection of cold beers to complement your meal. Given the popularity of this establishment, I highly recommend making reservations in advance. Seats tend to fill up quickly, especially during peak hours. If you decide to dine there, do request for Paul as your waiter. His friendly demeanor and attentive service truly enhance the overall dining experience. I can't stress enough how much I enjoyed my time there, and I'm confident that you'll have a fantastic dining experience as well. So, gather your loved ones and head over for a delightful culinary adventure. Wishing you all a wonderful dining experience at this gem of a Korean barbecue restaurant!

Great place for korean bbq and they grilled it for you! I haven’t been to any place that paired vegetables with meat. They chose it, grilled it, served it. So basically, all I needed to do is watch and eat. It’s really fun! It’s like a dining experience than just a meal. I really liked it! The egg is very good too. It has some aroma of the pot. Very unique! Parking is valet. I didn’t know how much because I street parked and walked there. Overall, very impressed!

We came here around 5ish in the afternoon, perfect time for a lesser crowd. They asked us if we do have reservation which we don’t. we availed the all you can eat priced at $43 each for dinner. I should say it was all worth it. Meat quality was superb! so good it melts in your mouth, especially the rib-eye! they also grill it for you. Space was a little narrow but they have another extension, also parking's a little tight. Nonetheless, it didn't bother us since we arrived at an earlier time. Food wise and customer service, I definitely recommend this place. One of my top choices for Korean BBQ here in LA.

Very good KBBQ place; great meat quality, good service, and great small dishes. The specialty octopus soup was also very good; I would just hope they have more protein inside the soup… there were only a “some” chopped octopus.

Excellent service. They cook the food for you and refill your ban chan continuously. Clean and not smoky like other Korean barbecue restaurants. They increased the price but still reasonable for the quality of meat and service. Highly recommend it

So many updates have been made since I last visited. Everything inside has been newly renovated, so it's clean and super nice. I was able to park on 3rd Street, or you can choose valet parking. I came here for the premium Korean BBQ experience and couldn't resist ordering my favorite dish. And yes, they still have the OG Nakji Chul Pan (spicy octopus dish). It's absolutely delicious with 3 spicy lvls, and make sure to ask for the fried rice at the end. The meat combo was thoughtfully designed, offering top quality meats, and there were generous portions of each meat. The Banchan was great, and the soybean soup hit the spot. I will definitely be coming back here and avoiding other overpriced, overrated KBBQ places in town. Come to this place to enjoy good food in good atmosphere, no craziness and not overcrowded. The seating area inside is spacious enough to accommodate big groups.

I recently dined at Ten Korean BBQ (recommended from my Korean friend) and had an exceptional experience. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. The highlight of our evening was the outstanding service provided by our waiter, Yong Han The restaurant offers an All-You-Can-Eat (AYCE) option, which is a fantastic value for the variety and quality of the meats available. Each cut was fresh and flavorful, perfectly suited for grilling. What truly stood out was the attentive service--Yong Han was incredibly efficient and friendly, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. He also likes Hong Kong movies (canto guy here) so extra points. A particularly impressive detail was the proactive approach to changing the grill. Without us having to ask, Yonju replaced our grill multiple times, ensuring that our food was always cooked on a clean surface. This level of attentiveness really elevated our dining experience. If you're looking for top-notch Korean BBQ with exceptional service, Ten Korean BBQ is a must-visit. Thanks to Yonju and the team for a memorable experience for my son.

Ten BBQ offers all you can eat now with premium quality meats and a variety of choices ! Their rib eye, brisket, beef belly and short ribs were so tender, juicy and flavorful. I was surprised to see the short ribs marbleized. They have unique and tasty marinated meats like the honey butter flavor. Currently the all you can eat is $38 for weekday lunches and $43 for dinner and weekends. It is such a great price for high quality meat. There are lots of great sides like the steamed egg and brisket ramen. The service was great and the server grilled all our meats. The ambience is fun and lively, perfect for a group hangout to eat and drink. Grab a drink to savor with this tasty kbbq !

Came here on a whim for lunch on a Monday around 12:30pm (after our original top 3 places we wanted to check out did not open until after lunch) and so glad we did! Service was great! Our server was patient while we looked through the extensive AYCE options. They also came by every few minutes on the dot and made sure we were not overcooking our meats. The meat options were good and there was a variety to choose from. Highly recommend #19 Black Angus Ribeye! We tried most of the spicy options and none of them were really spicy, which is good for those who want a spicy flavor, but not overbearing with heat. The meat options were color coded (red-spicy, orange-teriyaki, yellow-honey garlic). The teriyaki items were slightly on the sweet side for me, but still good. I liked trying the honey garlic items as well. My preference went toward the items that were either spicy or not marinated. Bulgogi and brisket never disappoint! Banchan options were plenty! They didn't have the seasoned sesame spinach or broccoli, japchae, spicy Korean cucumbers, braised potatoes available. The kimchi wasn't the best and I would have preferred it have a bit more spicy. Overall, good options for lunch and price point. Ambiance during lunch was appropriate. Great outdoor lighting, clean bathrooms, and tables to accommodate small and large parties. KPop was on repeat and I wouldn't have had it any other way. If you're looking for a kbbq spot during lunch and in the area, give Ten Bbq a try!

I haven't had KBBQ in a while. Actually, in a pretty long while. So, when we got a chance to visit a KBBQ place during our visit to LA, we tried to pick one with good quality and good selection of meats. We decided on Ten and we were happy with our decision. While the selection was OK, the meats available were very good quality with a mix of nicely marbled and soft meats covering beef to pork to chicken to seafood. The sides were nice to have, but to each their own. The restaurant itself is decently sized. Dark interior with some ambient lighting to make me feel like this place becomes popping at night time. We visited during the lunch hours on a Tuesday, so it was not busy at all, which could have explained the epic service. We were well tended to and the servers were incredibly nice. I would warn you that while there is a private lot, there are only like 4 spaces (one of them being designated blue) for Ten and two other stores (although one is a gym and the other seems to be vacant). Otherwise street parking. Definitely a great experience here.

I've been here twice and enjoyed my experience both times! You have the option to get the AYCE or choose one of the set menus. I got the set menu for 2 people and it came with five different types of meat, 2 shrimps, steamed egg, veggie skewer, and kimchi fried rice. You have the option to get either kimchi fried rice or jjigae (soup). I especially enjoyed the side dishes! I think it's a great place for dinner if you're going out with a small group. It's pretty dark inside, very casual.

It's rare for me to go to a non-ayce place (edit: they offer ayce now) but I'm really glad I did! This was definitely worth the price especially given the portion size :) Parking can be a hit or miss tho, as it is K-Town. We got seated right away and the staff were very friendly. They definitely made the experience better. The ambiance was nice too with the dimmed lighting and good music. We were a total of 3 people, and we actually got full with the E Set Combo! The presentation was beautiful, and you can tell the meat was super fresh. They cooked it tenderly. We got it with the Kimchi Fried Rice, which was nothing special, but blended well with all our dishes. I would say tho, they give really tiny portions of rice paper (~ 5 sheets) to where we kept asking for more, and eventually stopped cause we felt bad. We will definitely be back :)

Another amazing meal at Ten BBQ my go-to spot in K-town for KBBQ! Great service as always and the quality of the meat is always so fresh and delicious. Ordered AYCE this time but usually go for the combos if dining with a big group. Such a great time as always thanks TEN BBQ!

I've been here a couple times now, and I have to say that Ten-Raku is a solid Korean BBQ with great service. The quality is better than AYCE... pretty good quality for the prices. Also, they cook the meats for you, which is always much appreciated and a huge plus for me because I'm just super lazy and the last thing I want to do when I eat out is to cook my own meal! They have different combos available, or you can order your meats a la carte if you're familiar with Korean bbq meats. Overall, the meats have always been good quality and the service is friendly and attentive. Not much more you could want from a Korean BBQ. Parking is valet.

Best Korean bbq I been to about 40 Korean bbq restaurants by far one of the best. Staff is amazing the food taste so fresh and good

After lots of recommendations from Yelpers and social media we decided to to try Ten-Raku. It's a KBBQ that favors high quality cuts of meats. Our party of eight ordered several combo platters so we could try all of the meat cuts. The presentation was excellent, the cuts and quality of the meats were excellent, the portions were very small. The Banchans were good. We also had, steamed egg, fried rice and cold noodles. Service was good and the servers do most of the cooking for you. Located on 3rd St. near Western parking is and issue. They do valet park in front but space is limited. Street parking is a competition between the other restaurants in the area. $548 before tip.

Haven't been here for a while, but glad I came back. The restaurant seems to have been remodeled a bit and looks a lot cleaner. Quality of the meat is pretty good. I got the beef combo and everything was pretty good! Service here was very nice. Our servers cooked everything for us, gave us everything we asked for and was very generous with the side dishes. Definitely coming back! 4 star because it did taste better the last time I was here

Food service and ambience was excellent. This is going to be mine and my husband's new favorite place.

Come here for quality meats! Everything we had melted in our mouths and was cooked to perfection. The staff is attentive and doesn't let your meat burn or get too crispy, prompting you to enjoy your slices at the peak moment. Our party of four opted for the pork and beef combo for two which came with your choice of kimchi fried rice or soup and salad. Although the portion size was on the smaller size for our group we supplemented our meal with a seafood pancake. This was one of the best pancakes I've had. There was a good batter to filling ratio while not falling apart. The pancake even stayed crispy after cooling down. Definitely an unexpected star of the meal! The banchan was plentiful and the staff kept our waters full. We had an excellent meal and would recommend to anyone looking for delicious quality kbbq.

Was looking for a food spot open late on a Wednesday night and they happened to be open so I gave it a try! Customer Service was really good, they cooked all of our meat and it tasted so sooooo good, the marinated beef prime ribs and the filet mignon were my favorite! The Kimchi Fried Rice was also really good. The quality and service was overally really nice and it has a rather homely atmosphere. The only concern I'd have about coming back is that it is a little pricey for Kbbq.

The lady that served us was not nice at all. She was very judgmental of what we were ordering and made us feel bad for asking for things. For how much it was per person you'd also think the quality of meat would be better. The rice paper wasn't even fresh as some of the edges had hardened. They also would not let us cook our food to our own liking and kept coming by and trying to dump all of it on the grill at once which was pretty annoying. Getting shamed though by the lady really ruined the experience and we will not be returning.

Very good food and service! Our sever Paul did a great job hosting us and preparing the food. I would recommend this place for dinner anytime!

So easy to make a reservation for immediate seating! Got the pork and beef set menu for a group of 3 which was a good amount, but tbh I could have ate more too lol. Great meats and Banchan is varied and yummy, but yes prepare to keep asking for refills with the small dishes. Definitely worth not waiting around! Took some out of town friends here straight from the airport and they were impressed. And they cook for you!

If you have four people it's good to get combo c and order a couple of extra dishes from the menu

Finding parking was extremely hard as there is only around 5 spots in the front. You have to street park and there's rarely any spots. There wasn't a big wait, but disappointed by how little sides there were. This is Korean BBQ, half of the meal is the sides!! But they were mediocre and underwhelming. The best part was the meat. You can tell the quality of the meat is very fresh and high quality. They are super tender, juicy, and buttery. I loved it. The waiters were all very kind too. This place would be a hit if the side dishes weren't so bad.

Really enjoyable experience, but definitely at a premium price. Ten-Raku's biggest appeal is the incredible meat quality, with every combo sporting a platter of ridiculously marbled meat. Getting combo C, each cut was incredibly tender but a little plain. I appreciated the opportunity to really enjoy the meat's natural flavors, but since the dipping sauces weren't any good, the meats got a little bland and repetitive. The marinated shortrib is ridiculously good though, and i would come back just for that. Definitely a great experience for meat lovers, the quality of the cuts really stands out.

10/10 for service, the food, no wait, seated on a Saturday at 7pm. Amazing! Will be back when in LA. OG Korean place that knows what they've been doing for decades.

My boyfriend and I were tired of trying all the AYCE kbbq places in ktown and decided to give ten-raku a try. We got Combo A and boy were we FULL. The meat was so high quality and fresh - so much different from all the other places. The sides were also pretty generous portions and the steamed egg was nice and silky. Wish I could come back to try it again!

My partner got food poisoning and she suspects it was the carpaccio that comes from the ten raku combo. I didn't eat it since it's made with nuts and I'm allergic and was fine. It needs to be noted that there's nuts in that dish because I'm deathly allergic and almost had some. Street parking wasn't hard, and they also have valet if you can't find any. The area is walkable to dessert places around the area. It was hard to give this place less than 4 stars because the rest of meats were pretty good. We ordered soju and beer as well. They also cook for you - this is a little expected because they advertise themselves as a higher end bbq place. Ambiance is loud for a more expensive place for bbq. Also, there was 6 of us and we were in a booth that felt squished. hard to pass food to each other and barely any room to put all the food and drinks we ordered on the table. 6 people should have at least 2 bbq grills. Service is a little slow and the workers seem frazzled. I had to ask for our rice and for water several times before they finally brought it out. They seem short staffed, so we were a little more understanding. We don't know if we would come back, but maybe on an off day when it's less busy.

We were looking to wrap up the trip with LA kbbq. The pictures in past reviews look great, and those pics aren't fake. The beef had nice marbling, but the marinated beef was delicious. If we had a nice selection of sauces it would've been sufficient. We had a large party (7 people) so we got the combination that serves 5-6 people. It was so much food, we had a hard time finishing the food. By the time the pork came out, we all looked defeated. We got the kimchi fried rice and comes with two steamed eggs. They weren't anything special. You are wondering why the rating is so low because the food sounds so good, well it was the service. The server was curt and seemed annoyed when we wanted to order rice or just other things. Had to grab our own water pitcher and had to ask for more kimchi, etc. They have a small private valet lot for $4. If you can't get a spot, you will have to park around the neighborhood, which didn't look very easy.

On a quest to try all the kbbq restaurants in ktown la, we came to ten-raku after reading reviews on the quality of the meat and how it may be better than other popular kbbq restaurants according to some. We got the combo B for $132.99, which is 2-3 servings. This combo included Kobe style premium boneless short ribs, premium boneless short ribs, prime outside skirt steak, filet mignon, marinated beef premium short ribs OR beef tongue (your choice between the two), prime beef brisket, and pork belly. This combo also includes the choice of ONE soybean paste stew, ramen, or kimchi fried rice. First of all, the service-- ten-raku is a full service kbbq restaurant that cooks the meat for you. Initially when we sat down, a female server was super attentive as she kept taking away any trash we had and even asked us how we liked our meat cooked. We appreciated that but started to notice that she was probably new and inexperienced because she ended up dropping a piece of brisket on the floor and not replacing it, as well as dropping the filet mignon on the table and eventually throwing that onto the grill. Later on, our female server switched out to a male server who definitely was more experienced but unfriendly and awkward which made it uncomfortable for us to eat and relax. Second of all, the interior and ambiance-- when we walked in, it seemed like a club or bar because of the led lights and the type of music playing. The interior was a bit dark and the surfaces of the tables and chairs seemed dull and old. When I was pulling my chair forward with my hand, I touched something that stuck to my hand and had to wash my hands immediately. Adding to the club or bar vibe, the music actually DOUBLED in volume suddenly after the clock hit 7pm. It was too loud to hear each other speak. I guess this place might be nice if you come with a bunch of friends and want to get drunk?? Lastly, the food-- for those who were touting about the quality of the food here, I'm not sure if the quality of the meat decreased in such a short amount of time or what, but the meat quality here was one of the worst I've ever had so far in ktown la, and we've tried all the popular ones and a few new ones. I would say the quality of this meat was on par with or even worse than Hae Jang Chon, which is an ayce kbbq place lol. The brisket had no marbling or fat, as it was so tough and dry. The boneless short ribs did not have as much beef flavor as other kbbq spots we've had even though they're supposed to be premium quality. We've literally bought boneless short ribs from Costco and they taste the same as these with Costco being much cheaper. The other meats they included in the combo were just tough and our jaws started getting sore. I would say the best one was the filet mignon. I usually don't eat much of the sides with kbbq, but I really needed the assistance of the rice paper wraps and picked radish to help with the meal. Additionally, their salad was bitter and not that refreshing. This combo b was supposed to be for 2-3 servings, but it is really for 2 servings... We left not feeling satisfied, especially for the amount we paid (~$180 total, the most we've paid for kbbq for 2 people). All in all, we will not be coming back.

I was going to other restaurants which's my favorite but my friend recommended me this place so I got to try. I've been this area long time and I heard this place before but never been. It was my first time here and it was not too great experience. I loved to eat and find other new restaurants. This place was a little disappointing than I expected. I ordered nakgi cha dol chul pan. First time here so I don't know what to order so I asked waiter and he recommended me this. (1/5)-if you kept cooking while you eating, taste going to salty so you have to stop cook. Taste like missing something. We asking to our waiter to jalapeños and extra kimchi for make tasty. Fried rice (3/5)-if they have menu for only this, I will come back but so sadly I couldn't eat only this menu without ordering Chul pan or big dish. I wanted try spicy nakji galbijjim but not sure go back to this place again for trying other dishes. Simple interior and clean place. Every staff members are friendly and they make sure everything ok.

Amazing food, great service, very prompt, kind and attentive. We were there for a special event after graduating and they acknowledged that. Great prices, great food, great service and a clean and nice ambiance!!

Service is good, the staff works very hard to serve you when there's a lot of people. Very kind workers, and very fast service. Would recommend.

We ordered Combo A: Kobe-style short rib, premium short rib, skirt steak, brisket and pork belly. Meat was premium quality, and amount for Combo A for two ppl was perfect; we left feeling satiated. Banchan choices were my favorites, including marinated crab! Every morsel of meat was juicy and perfectly cooked, and banchan were fresh. They do not have rice paper but they do have radish paper, which is preferred. You have three options for sides to Combo A: kimchi fried rice, soybean paste stew or ramen; we ordered the kimchi fried rice (delicious)! Service was optimum quality. They were accommodating with our last minute reservation. When we arrived, they were pleasantly helpful, checked on us frequently and provided refills fairly quickly. Granted there were few customers. I recommend making reservations. Things start to pick up around 6 pm on a weeknight. Ambiance was small and quaint. Floors weren't slippery like big kbbq spots. Parking is a small lot with valet closing at 630 pm. Street parking is metered from 8 am - 6 pm, so anytime after 6 pm is free. Overall, my dining experience exceeded my expectations. Clearly, if you want to enjoy great quality kbbq in a small intimate setting, where parking is easy and not crowded, dine here! 100/10 recommend! Will be coming back here for sure!

I wasn't expecting quality meat from an AYCE place, but this restaurant exceeded my expectations. It is a bit more pricey than other cheap Korean BBQ places, but I would rather pay a bit more for quality meat! I will definitely come back.

Great place for korean bbq and they grilled it for you! I haven't been to any place that paired vegetables with meat. They chose it, grilled it, served it. So basically, all I needed to do is watch and eat. It's really fun! It's like a dining experience than just a meal. I really liked it! The egg is very good too. It has some aroma of the pot. Very unique! Parking is valet. I didn't know how much because I street parked and walked there. Overall, very impressed!

I discovered Ten-Raku about a year ago and have gone back a few times since. It's my go-to KBBQ place went I want quality over quantity at a reasonable price. I usually get a combo and order based on our group size. All the meats are good quality and the banchans keeps coming if you ask for them. The servers cook the meats for you so you can sit back and enjoy. I love getting meat tartare whenever I see them at KBBQ restaurants. However, the ones here came a bit still frozen in the center which threw me off. It wasn't bad but it's not the texture I was expecting when eating raw meat tartare. At least I didn't get sick. Overall great KBBQ place if you are looking for quality meats.

It doesn't get much better than this. When I'm in LA, I always eat Korean BBQ. There just aren't any good places in SF. My go-to places are usually AYCE, but as I'm getting older, I can't consume that much meat anymore. It was time to try quality over quantity. This place is amazing. The meat quality is way better than the AYCE restaurants. The marbling on that beef is so pretty, and it just melts in your mouth, and it's incredibly tender. We had a party of 4 with reservations and were seated pretty much immediately. I ordered BBQ Combo C with a Nakji Pajeon (seafood pancake). It also came with 2 orders of steamed egg, and 2 ramen. I originally wanted Kimchi fried rice, but they said they were out, which was a bit disappointing. Our combo came with rib eye, Kobe style boneless short ribs, premium boneless short ribs, shirt steak, filet mignon, marinaded short ribs, brisket, and pork belly. Everything was amazing. The best part is that they cook for you. I love having someone cook and flip all your meat, so you can spend more time socializing with your friends. After everything is said and done, we were all full, and the price is very similar to what we normally order from AYCE. So I will definitely come back, and dare I say that this is probably my favorite Korean BBQ restaurant in LA now?!

Great quality meat cuts!! I've tried Ahgassi Gopchang & Kang Ho Dong multiple times which are more popular options (bustling vibe) but my friends and I prefer Ten-Raku due to the meat quality and banchan variety. Not only do they take reservations, but we're always able to get seated quickly even if we do walk-in. We love getting the beef combos, especially the Ten-Raku combo for 5-6 ppl that comes with the beef tartare (so good). Staff cooks the meat for you which is always nice to have. Definitely recommend coming here if you're looking for better kbbq over the vibe. Street parking is challenging to find so expect to valet. Bring cash to pay the $4 fee.

We like this spot because they have good quality meat and tend to have availability at the last minute for bigger groups (~6+ people). The service is good, and food comes out pretty fast. We've never felt rushed when we dined here, and with larger groups, you know we tend to drag our feet and take longer. I've also had their doenjang jiggae separately (had a stomach ache and didn't want to eat a lot of beef with the rest of the group) and it was well made.

Yummy, delicious prime food, great taste and service. Cool ambience good for a date, is a quite place

Oh em gee? This place is legit great quality meat. Must come here if you want quality meat. Beyond my expectation. A+++

Decided to give this place a try. Good was great, nice atmosphere, and the location was easy to park.

Came after all day at Universal studio Service was great. They cooked for you. No extra charge for rice.

I saw an Instagram video that this place has spicy marinated raw crab as a side dish and had to try it. We got the ten raku combo and it was enough meat for 6 people. The combo came with fried rice or ramen or stew. They didn't have fried rice so we got ramen. The quality of the meat was okay. The short ribs were very good but everything else was pretty blah. I think our server overcooked most of the meat too. The ramen was okay, I think we would've enjoyed fried rice more. The side dishes were pretty whatever, we didn't ask for refill on any of them. The spicy marinated crab I came for was super disappointing. The texture was way off. If you want raw crab, go to crab house. The have 4 spots in their parking lot. We got there early for lunch and we're able to grab a spot.

Went with a huge group when they opened for dinner, the Service and food was 4/5 which is pretty good. Only 5 parking spots but the security/parking guy takes up a spot so only 4 parking spots. Street parking was limited. Bulgogi cannot be cooked at table so we ordered from the kitchen but was not flame broiled but seemed to be stir fried which we did not like. They have Orion on tap but some servers will be too lazy to refill the keg when it's out so be persistent and find the guy that will do it and tip them separately.

Delicious kbbq, fresh meat. The service was good. Prices are slightly higher in my opinion.

The meat is sooo soft and delicious!!! Great flavor to all portions of the meal. Great service and fun ambiance. Nothing bland, very soft and will definitely come again!!

Not a fan of them cooking for you. We kept having to ask for refills on the sides and waters then reminding them again because they would forget. They were busy trying to do everything when they should just focus on one thing and doing that well. It was empty too so I can only imagine how it is when it's busy. We won't be coming back.

Super solid premium Korean bbq. Quality meat, solid banchan and service was good. We had the ten raku combo, which menu listed as serving 5-6, but we finished it with 4 people, albeit being pretty full. Not cheap at that price point, but everything is pricier these days and the meat is good quality. I like that you can make rez. We had rez for 4 people at 8:30, and seated promptly. I would definitely come back.

Good quality meat, but service left much to be desired. We usually go to other places for premium Korean barbecue, but wanted to switch it up and give Ten-Raku a try this time. The restaurant is located on the corner of Hobart and 3rd. Parking is valet service (or so I thought, more on this later), which was $3.00 when we visited. They were a bit occupied maneuvering the cars around in the lot, so they told us to go ahead and leave the car on the street for someone to park it later when they were available. They left without taking the key from me and I wasn't comfortable leaving it in the ignition. So everyone else went to sit down while I waited for the valet to come back. Combo B comfortably feeds a party of three, or two very hungry people. Marinated Beef Premium Short Ribs - my favorite out of the bunch, very tender and sweet. Kobe Style Premium Brisket - slightly thicker and more lean compared to the fatty slabs of meat you see at AYCE establishments. I think it made all the difference, I enjoyed it. Kobe Style Premium Boneless Short Ribs and Premium Boneless Short Ribs - delicious, but my taste buds are not sophisticated enough to distinguish one from another. The marinated one is better. Pork Belly - On par with other places. Nothing more, nothing less. Filet Mignon - Slightly overdone. Prime Outside Skirt Steak - Burnt. Side dishes choices are alright. Steamed egg was perfectly fluffy. The staff initially grilled and served everything, but later visited our table less frequently. Looking back, it seems like they expected us to take over when they weren't available. We weren't aware of this and they didn't communicate this with us, so it resulted in some pieces getting burnt. I was originally sitting in front of the grill but was told to sit next to it, so we thought they had everything under control. But apparently not. When we went to get the car after dinner, we found out the valet decided to park it a block away from the restaurant. Instead of retrieving it, they handed back the keys, told us to cross the street, and said goodbye. I sound entitled, but isn't valet supposed to be a paid service that provides convenience for the customer? If I knew beforehand, I would have parked my own vehicle and walked over, I didn't need to pay $3.00 for someone to do that. And to not retrieve it after parking it who-knows-where, was truly something I never experienced at other places that offer valet. I guess there is a first for everything, and I sure hope this will be the last. When it comes to letting the patrons cook their own meat vs. having the staff grill all the orders, this place needed to pick one. It felt like a half-hearted attempt trying to be both, and did not feel like a premium experience given how they position themselves as one of the more expensive options for Korean barbecue. Do you know what happens when the parking lot is full at Alexandria Plaza on 6th Street (Sun Nong Dan, Hangari Kalguksu, Paris Baguette)? They close it and stop accepting cars because they can't offer valet service. I believe Park's BBQ on Vermont has an overflow area when their main lot is full, but they bring all the cars back to the front of the restaurant when the patrons are done eating. Valet doesn't make them walk over to it. It would have been alright with us if we were made aware of the staffing and parking situation. Communication is key, and the lack of it made it a disappointing night.

Came here to eat with some friends. Ordered the combo and grilled octopus. This place is a la carte. I enjoyed the food here and the service is all right. You can tell they are busy especially when the place is packed! The meat quality is pretty good but they don't have the fancy vents for the smoke so if your eyes are super sensitive maybe order the other items on the menu. The parking lot is small & valet. Recommend to do a reservation if you can.

Incredible!! I've been about 10x at this point. They had a recent glow up inside which makes the atmosphere even better. Truly the best meat of my life. Love the staff!

Slightly on the pricier side and no more raw crab banchan due to new ownership. Totally understandable as it was surprising to be included without additional charge. Wish they would bring it back for purchase as a side though. Service is still as friendly and attentive as ever, every single member of staff is on top of their game making sure you are well taken care of. I would come back just for the service alone. Meat quality still great and now you're able to make reservations through Yelp so you don't have to wait. Valet is only like $4 which is a plus cuz parking on this side of town can be rough. We got combo B for two which was a good amount of food, but got combo c last time with jjigae as a side and might reccomend that for two if you're hungry like us :)

Found this place super randomly. I am not a Korean BBQ connoisseur but it was great. Service was amazing and the serving size for the price was perfect.
