My wife and I have tried all sorts of Korean barbecue spots from LA to OC. We are not new to KBBQ. We ended up here by accident with friends who lived in the area and to our surprise this was a hidden gem. The meats were all on point and the big bonus of the night was the spicy cold noodles. The meat portions were huge and there was a large variety in general. Service was great, staff was super friendly and were happy to converse with us. We came early on a Thursday evening so there was no wait that early. For AYCE this is my new favorite. Looking forward to coming back. I dont leave a lot of reviews but when I do its for a great reason. Huge thank you to the staff and owners for a pleasant time. This is a place we will definitely come back to support!
BEWARE 2 person minimum. No other patrons were in the restaurant, and I got turned away as a single diner. The hostess very rudely informed me that there was a 2 person minimum, which I totally get if you’re busy. Empty restaurant on a Sunday afternoon at 4pm…yep, have fun with that!
The food is great, the servers are quite nice. They change the charred plates quite often.
This place is a good way to eat kbbq... but need more waiter.....my table waiting for 5 to 10 min to for waiter to come by....did the hand wave too.
Great kbbq at a really great price with friendly staff!
Great new KBBQ place in Diamond Bar. The 24.99 menu hits, and Im sure the higher level is s tier.The basics are all good quality, the service is good and the non-bbq things (panchan, steamed egg, soups) are tasty also. The fact that you get cheese corn, steamed egg and a variety of good soups for the basic menu is an excellent bonus.
What a great local KBBQ option!! They are fairly new so there was no wait for a table on a Saturday night. I opted for the $25 AYCE menu option (a rarity, nowadays) and the variety you get is well worth the price!All the meats we tried were great quality - we tried the brisket, beef belly, thinly sliced pork belly, spicy squid, and my personal favorite, a unique offering called the Flying Tiger Beef, which is their beef belly in a sauce.Impressive variety of banchan too! I was surprised by the pico de gallo - and it was actually pretty good!5/5 would come back again!
Wow. This place is amazing! Ive had a lot of AYCE KBBQ places, from OC to LA. This place is hands down the BEST KBBQ place Ive ever tried. My girlfriend also lovess this place and shes pretty picky about KBBQ places.The owners are currently the servers, and they are SO NICE! Its a husband and wife duo and they are very kind and down to Earth. They just opened up this place recently so come out and support!Onto the meat quality, its probably one of the highest quality places Ive had. The marbling on the meat is perfect and they are super tender. And the price is insanely cheap right now. The meat is definitely one of a high-end KBBQ place.Overall I love this place and its #1 in my list, I know theyre going to get much more traction as time goes on. For now, Ill enjoy this place while the prices are low and the lines are short! I know in the near future theyre going to be so much more packed. Underrated for sure!!
Thick cut ribeye and LA short ribs good.
Youre here for $24.99 kbbq, youre going to get on par kbbq. Its got its highs and lows. Kimchi is quite fermented, if youre into that. Portions are a little small but I think thats a good thing. Some of the marinated beef items dont taste fresh. Its a great place if youre looking to get full and save $10 per person on ayce kbbq in the area.
Amazing new KBBQ place!!!!! Good quality meat with fresh side dishes. Huge sirloin is served. Service is excellent changing the grill repeatedly without asking. Overall I’d give 5+ stars
Great new AYCE KBBQ place! The $24.99 menu has all the basics, and its good quality . Wayyy better than the other KBBQ places in the area (if your thinking of born or the stop... just come here).Plus, at $25, you get steamed egg, cheese corn, soups, etc.So good, def my new go to.
Highly recommend this place. My new favorite AYCE Korean BBQ.
Great deal for ayce kkbq. Their banchan and kim chi are great too. Each meat plate was large and they brought it out quickly.
The meat wasnt great, the staff service is good tho
Super great, the flying tiger was the best thing

2023-02-28 00:50:48Best Korean BBQ Ive been to yet! I got some excellent meats from Menu A and when cooked, it was incredibly tender. A huge selling point, and youll know what Im talking about if you frequent kbbq places: The scissors work!!! They were super sharp and easy to cut the meat. I cant say much else. Just look at the photos and stop on by!

2023-01-02 21:55:41We arrived and there was no waiting time. I think this is a hole in the wall Korean BBQ. It is tucked away in the corner of this Plaza. The staff is extremely friendly and the service was amazing. The price is vary from menu a and menu B from 24 to 34 dollars. We have soju, beers, and great food. The quality of all the food was great and if youre into Korean barbecue I would definitely recommend that you try this place out. The earlier you get the better. My only complaint is they need to clean the tables with something else other than vinegar because it kind of made me want to throw up, because I hate the smell of vinegar.

2022-09-28 01:54:04My family usually go to Rowland heights for AYCE Korean bbq, so we were excited when we heard about this one in Diamond Bar.We decided to try the $24.99 deal because we mainly eat brisket and bulgogi only.The place is new, nice, clean, very bright and not smoggy. Its roomy inside with lots of tables, good for large parties as well.The meat quality was really good, and the side dishes were really fresh with many varieties.Flying tiger beef was something new to us. Its thin sliced beef bellies with a special sauce which had a sweet and sour taste. It tasted more like Thai to me. Beef belly is usually oily, but with this special sauce, this juicy grilled beef belly can increase your appetite.Kimchi doshirak was also new to try. The waiter had egg, kimchi, rice and some sauce in a metal bento box, and he shook the box to mix the ingredients before serving. It tasted like kimchi stirred rice. Pretty good as a side.The service was excellent. Our grill plate was changed 4 times without asking.Overall, we were so happy with the taste and quality for this inexpensive price.

2022-12-23 21:04:42Quality Korean BBQ AYCE in Diamond Bar. Meats are high quality especially on their premium AYCE menu. Banchan is just OK, but meats are carefully chosen. No frills KBB restaurant. Just indulge on your cravings of good KBB AYCE. Not crowded either.

2023-09-11 04:29:01We called ahead to see if there was a long queue but there was no wait on a Sunday during lunch. We went with the menu B and it was pleasantly delicious. All the items we ordered were pretty tasty. Our server helped us replace the grill when it got charred and kept all the meats + side dishes coming. The volcano ramen is pretty spicy. Thats my only heads-up if you cant handle the heat.

2022-10-11 23:19:26Seoul BBQ uses quality meat. I added a picture of the ribeye from their more expensive menu. It was a terrific cut, and was fantastic. The other offerings were good too. The best part was that there was no wait.

2022-12-24 19:50:22AYCE Korean BBQ spot with 2 sets of prices you can chose from. This place also has a beer and wine license so beer and soju are available. The meat selection is good and the service is attentive. They switched out my grates pretty quickly, which is always a plus.

2023-05-19 05:44:20Food was good here, my feedback though would be that the standard portion sizes are too big, especially for 2 people. Portions were often 1.5-2 times what other places do. Id rather just reorder if I want more, me and my wife barely finished 5 orders and didnt have a chance to try a couple other menu items.

2023-03-28 17:43:53We were there to celebrate a birthday. It was our first time there so we chose Menu A. The banchan was fresh and delicious, meat were fresh and we all loved the flying tiger beef belly. There was only one waiter, I dont know how he did it, but he kept us fed and got us everything we asked for. We will definitely be back again to try the other menu.
