Taegukgi Korean BBQ in San Diego

Taegukgi is still the best AYCE Korean BBQ places in the area. Theres a lot of korean bbq restaurant now and I have tried some of them, theyre good but nothing beats or levels with TGG yet.We prefer coming here for early lunch right when they open. Dinner gets a little bit crazy because this place is so popular.They give you large meat servings. My favorite is the beef belly and spicy pork belly. You should not miss the steamed eggs. It takes longer to get served because of the cooking process but please be patient. Their banchans (side dishes) all tastes good. The servers are very friendly and quick on their feet. They are also paying attention when your grill needs to get changed.Overall, we always leave with happy tummies!

We’ve been going here for years! This is one of our favorite places for Korean BBQ! Quality food, service - always a good time!

Our favorite KBBQ AYCE. We love ordering the large intestines and the whole meat selection. The staff are always friendly and helpful. We love coming back to this Korean BBQ spot. Its a True gem on Convoy st.

It was really good! Been wanting to come here for a while and finally did. Came for dinner, had to wait about 10-15 min to be seated. The meat was great quality and the sides were very tasty. The beef belly and beef ribs were extra good! Try their onion salad. Oh, and also the spicy squid and baby octopus were bomb!!If you go to Korean Rose to get some boba drinks after you get 20% off with the receipt from here.

Food coma. Or more specifically, meat coma. Yup, after eating here, just waking up from one and I can’t tell if it’s been days, weeks, or months. Probably just a few hours since I laid down but sheesh, this spot put it on my taste buds and tummy! (In a good way!)Came here with a group after work and had a lot of fun. The drinks were plentiful, featuring a wide selection of beers. Then the food, just wow! Different cuts and flavors of beef to chicken to pork to shrimp to octopus to veggies and so much more! Including my favorite - marinated beef short rib. And you get to cook it all in front of you, how you want it and when you want it. This restaurant was more of an experience instead of just another dining location. Definitely worth checking out!

My favorite place for Korean BBQ in SD. The food is absolutely amazing, but my favorite part is the service. The serving team came to check on us frequently while we were eating to make sure we didn’t need anything. Great place for dinner, lunch or a big party. Also, make sure to grab boba at The Korean Rose after!

1st time patron. Loved the urban and sports bar like atmosphere! Music and big screen TVs are a big bonus to the vibrant ambience. All you can eat for up to 2hours($$$). Place was packed with groups waiting to be seated. Fresh meats and sides You cook yourself tableside. Meats couldve been marinated longer before brought to table. Beef and seafood was tough and too chewy. Lacked succulents. Chicken strips and pork belly were delicious. Dont recommend the rice soup🤢...bland and flavorless. Soda machines were not functional...gave out flat tasting drinks. Customer service was pleasant and very friendly. Will have to try Taegukgi Korean BBQ again. The sides alone (great palate cleansers, Kimchee, perfectly made rice, potato salad and homemade garlic butter❤️‍🔥) are worth another trip😋

This place was jamming! They said it wasnt as busy as normal, however place was full with people constantly coming and going since we put our name on the list (estimated wait was 60-75 minutes but only took 18 minutes to get seated), until we departed 8:10!Great options of meats, the flavored ones were on point (bulgogi), really good thin cuts, and very tasty sides.Staff were on it, from the waitress who was by no less than every 10 minutes to check on us and add food orders in, to the grill changers checking in about the same to ensure clean grilling, to the stealthy ninjas removing dishes from the table and adding new ones! Service was top notch for sure!They have a nice open space seating with tables that can easily accommodate larger parties, about 6 seats to a grill, some outside seating as well, had club style music playing -which wasnt bad but was really loud which made it a little harder for conversation, also had bar seating available with a wall of TVs up high in front on the bar -which was great to watch the Padreas and the Rockies play!

This place has some tasty food! They have different prices for different selections, I loved it when they offered me different options!They have a great selection of meat, vegetables and pre-cooked food! I would recommend the steamed eggs and their beef! The staff are nice and friendly too:)However, I wasn’t pleased with their service, there were many times we finished all our food but the next order still had not come, they also missed our order several times and gave us the wrong order 🥲 Plus the music was extremely loud in this restaurant that I can barely hear my friends talking across the table.

Finally… I’ve found my fav Korean bbq and I almost don’t want to tell anyone about it. That’s just how amazing this place is! Enjoy some grade A fine dining my fellow foodies, and bring your appetite.Pros- staff- meat- quality- price- deals- environmentCons- the floor is mad slippery when it’s raining- I didn’t find this place sooner
