Tokyo Kalbi

Good Korean barbecue. I am a regular customer here, and they have been increasing prices. When you sit down, a moist towel is waiting for you. The Kim-Chee used to be free, now it is $6. Nonetheless, it is still very tasty. The premium Kalbi is very flavorful. The binbin bap is also amazing.

Went here twice during my time in California from Dec '21 to Jan '22, first with my mom's Russian friend living in LA and my younger brother and then on my own. Tokyo Kalbi is special for Japanese BBQ in LA in the sense that it is one of the few Japanese BBQ joints in LA that uses charcoal instead of gas or electric grills, which really helps to enhance the flavors of the meat. The Premium Kobe beef tongue and short ribs were especially outstanding, though I would recommend ordering them beforehand, including for thickly-cut beef tongue. It's also best to reserve your table beforehand as well. If I were given the choice to come to this joint the next time I'm in California, I would gladly do so! Would highly recommend this joint if you want proper Japanese food in LA!

The quality of the meat and food overall were superb. Great service and was very accommodating to our large group which had a toddler. Felt welcome from the get go. Would recommend.

Great food, great service. We were a table of seven on a Friday night and they were so accommodating. We got served quickly and the food was fresh and delicious. The staff were also really friendly and really helpful. I would highly recommend this restaurant. A word of warning this isn’t really a first date place - very family friendly atmosphere, and there were a lot of kids and it’s quite noisy.

Great place but pricey! Portions are small but the quality of the meat is great. Side dishes could be cheaper, in my opinion. But overall i really liked the atmosphere and the experience of grilling my own meat.

Meat quality is good but cut too thin. You will end up ordering double the amount to make up for it. Expensive for what it is . Go to Gyu-kaku instead if you're looking for yakiniku.

Top quality Japanese BBQ. If you’re looking for volume, this isn’t the place but you will find GREAT quality!!!
