Honey Pig BBQ in Irvine

We stumbled on to Honey Pig BBQ while looking for a place to eat after a baseball tournament in Irvine. This was a fun, different experience. The servers were great, answering all our questions, since this was a first for all of us. The servers did all the cooking and were very attentive. We had shrimp, wagu beef, and duck. The meal starts off with the servers bringing out the meal prep, which consists of kimchi and several other items served with whatever meat you choose. The servers cook all the food and tell you when its ready. There are dipping sauces, which were very good and rice paper for wrapping the food. There were no complaints about the meat we chose. Everyone loved the choices. The kimchi can be a little much if you havent had it before, It is an acquired taste type of food. At the end of dinner, the food leftover is combined with rice to make a fried rice meal. It was delicious. It would be tough to suggest what to get. I recommend asking questions and taking a chance on something you havent had before. I dont think you will be disappointed in whatever is ordered. I can tell you the duck was a big hit with everyone. I look forward to returning soon to try something different. Have fun, take a chance, and enjoy the experience.

Honey Pig in Irvine rocks! Their lunch menu starting at 12 pm is a winner. We got the special combo with mouthwatering pork belly (삼겹살), kimchi, tofu, salad, and bean sprout soup, plus the cold noodle (메밀냉면) and stirred pork (제육) a flavor explosion! The servings were generous and oh-so-satisfying. And lets not forget the fantastic service – the attentive servers had all the answers and our food arrived in a flash. For a filling and fabulous lunch, Honey Pig is the spot! 🍖🥗🍜👌

Genuinely, its mediocre. Not a lot on the menu, overpriced, ordered a drink and it never came even when I asked. The food is half decent, but a lot of fat on certain things. The atmosphere is nice, its a more unique place compared to other Korean BBQs Ive been to. If given the choice, Id chose to go to other places over this one. I will say though, the servers are polite, friendly, and honestly kinda hot.

The intestines here are cleaned very well, have no odor, and are marinated in a very delicious sauce. I especially like the kimchi grilled intestines, which are very flavorful and have a spicy and stimulating taste.The restaurants space is also very spacious and airy, and the staff are very warm and attentive.Overall, I am very satisfied with this Korean grilled intestine restaurant and I will continue to come here to enjoy the delicious food and great service.

Place was solid. The best part of the meal was the kimchi fried rice that they make for you at the end. The chadol beef was not great, a bit dry and not fatty enough. The thinly sliced pork was good and the samgyupsal was good too. The sides were just ok. The egg (gae lan cheem) was ok. The lettuce salad didn’t have enough dressing on it. The corn was just ok.The waiters are great in that they start the meat for you, but they don’t always come back in time to move the meat off the grill, so you have to be attentive and do it yourself. Otherwise the meat will overcook. The wait staff was generally friendly and helpful.

Lovely food and very good service, I have had dinner twice here during my visiting in Irvine. Recommend and I will definitely come back again 😊

Great food. Our waiter totally guided us through everything and took the time to educate us on the food. Gave awesome suggestions on what to roll order.

It was a good location, quality ingredients, good service as they do the cooking for you but youre welcome to do it yourself. Long line up on a Sunday evening.As far as kbbq goes its nothing special and frankly overpriced. Next time Id probably look elsewhere for a smaller kbbq restaurant that isnt as popular with more competitive pricing.For what you pay, youd think you went to a high end restaurant.

The food is very, very good. Make sure to go with 4 people because for some reason you have to order 2 portions and 2 portions is good enough for 4 famished, large adults or 6 regular folks. The food is really good though. Really good.

There are several Korean BBQ restaurants in Irvine, and among them, Honey Pig BBQ is my favorite. The clean interior atmosphere is nice, and above all, the combination of meat grilled on the pot lid, kimchi, and seasoned bean sprouts is truly the best. And the fried rice stir-fried on the pot lid at the end is really tasty! 👍Highly recommended!!
