Arirang Korean BBQ — Restaurant in Karrinyup

A Symphony of Senses: An Unforgettable A5 Wagyu Experience at Arirang Korean BBQ From the moment I stepped into Arirang Korean BBQ, I knew I was in for something extraordinary. But nothing could have prepared me for the sheer culinary masterpiece that was their A5 Wagyu beef. This wasn't just a meal; it was an experience, a transcendent journey for the palate. The presentation alone was a work of art. Thinly sliced, perfectly marbled pieces of Wagyu arrived on a pristine, white platter the delicate pink hues and intricate white webbing promising an indulgence unlike any other. The aroma, a subtle, sweet, and buttery fragrance, filled the air, heightening the anticipation. And then, the taste. Oh, the taste. It wasn't "beef" as I knew it. It was a melt-in-your-mouth sensation, a delicate dance of buttery richness that dissolved on the tongue, leaving behind a lingering sweetness and umami depth. The exquisite marbling, those delicate threads of fat, rendered into pure, ethereal flavor, creating a texture so tender it bordered on ethereal. The chefs at Arirang Korean BBQ clearly understand the reverence this prized ingredient deserves. Each piece we cooked to absolute perfection over the grill, just kissed by the heat, allowing the natural flavors to shine. The accompanying accoutrements, a delicate sprinkle of sea salt and a whisper of peper, were perfectly chosen, enhancing rather than overpowering the Wagyu's inherent beauty. The service was impeccable, attentive yet unobtrusive, with knowledgeable staff guiding us through the experience, explaining the origins and preparation of this exceptional beef. The ambiance of the restaurant was perfect, and added to the overall experience. This A5 Wagyu experience at Arirang Korean BBQ wasn't just a meal; it was a memory etched in my culinary consciousness. It's a testament to the artistry of food, a reminder of the sublime pleasure that can be found in the perfect balance of quality, preparation, and presentation. If you're seeking a dining experience that transcends the ordinary, look no further. This is a five-star...

This was an interesting experience, which I'm sure will be better the next time I go. You should reserve or face a long queue at peak times.

The restaurant itself is very pretty and trendy looking. At night, it looks romantic with lights outside. For the cold weather, there are heaters. From the menu, you can choose A La Carte or cook on the BBQ at your table.

Ordering is interesting. After perusing the menu, you have a table Q code that takes you to the Ordering platform. Note, you pay when you leave. We ordered the Kimchee Cheese Fried Rice, Fried Squid, Soft Tofu Seafood Soup, and Seafood Pancake.

The squid was a great snack with a crunchy texture. The soup was well seasoned, accompanied by rice and other condiments, and fried rice was very delicious... lots of yumny cheese. A few service issues arose with seafood pancake. Overall, the food was good.

They forgot to make it and offered a beverage while I waited. There was a tiny piece of shell in the pancake, so it was good that the ingredients were fresh. While I'm eating they cleared a few dishes, including the scissors needed to cut the pancake into bite-sized pieces. A comedy of errors in the end.

On another occasion, it was a better experience. New dishes tried were Beef Ramen and Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup. When ordering, you can choose the chilli level, so you can enjoy spiciness without your mouth being on fire for 5 minutes. Great for warming you up on a cold day. There was also plenty of seafood...

My family and I tried the $20 dosirack take away meal. First the take away container was nothing like the poster on the window, had less and smaller compartments. Second the food was cold as if it was left out for a while. I mean everything was cold, the chicken, beef even the rice was cold, that it was stuck to the container and you had to scrape it off with a fork. They added some type of pasta that was not even in the advertisement. The miso soup was the only thing that was somewhat warm but had nothing in it, besides a few pieces of spring onion. It tatsed like the onion soup sachets from coles. Then we asked two different females workers if we could sit down outside, and they both said it is ok even though we got take away. Not even 2 minutes after we sat down, an older man who I assume is the manager, approached us and didn't introduce himself nothig. He repeatedly said twice we cannot sit here because it was take away and walked after that, yes I understand it was take away. But his attitude and approach towards us felt rude and abrupt, he felt unapproachable and unkind. Definitely didn't feel welcomed and inivited there this place felt disappointing and didn't match my initial expectations. Dont think we'll be coming back anytime soon or at all. Definitely a let down for a...
