Hanoo Kalbi — Restaurant in Los Angeles

[Update] - Changed to 3stars as they have become completely inflexible on charging a 5yr old $25 just for being present. First, this is highest child rate for any ayce around; Second what 5yr old eats $25 worth of meat?!? Ours doesn’t even eat meat which is why we kept asking to not charge her. Their loss of loyal customers. Below was the original review: Great actual Korean AYCE BBQ place ran by Koreans. I would say best in the Valley. Super friendly staff and owners take care of you throughout your time there. The galbi and prime steak are delicious. Plenty of authentic side dishes and some neat dessert options as well. Little more expensive than some other AYCE K-BBQ nearby, but they also have a tier system where cheaper options don’t include a few premium meats - so still a great deal for a hungry person. Oh they also have a private dining room which can seat 50-60. Go check this place out at the HK...

Korean BBQ in the Valley with exceptional friendly service.

I have been here many times over the years before the new ownership change.

Newly Renovated interior.

Solid joint serving up delicious Korean meats.

Located in a large shopping mall with ample parking.

About $35 pp for standard AYCE. Many options to choose from. Sapporo on draft and Bottled beer. Large booths, tables and a private room.

One good size grill per table or booth. You grill it to your hearts content. I like it crispy and slightly charred!

Meats are fresh and come out fast. Fantastic service by everybody at this location. The tables were Well attended with quick service.

Pro tip: get the onions garlic and jalapeño and throw it on the fire.

The side dishes were a bit lackluster as well as the dipping oils with salt. They could be better.

Favorite is the brisket and the thinly sliced pork belly.

Come...

I arrive there hoping to get ayce kbbq. I enter ask for a party of one and they promptly close the bbq at my table give me a limited menu and explain only parties of two or more can ise the bbq. WHAT THE HELL!? I go to a korean bbq place I expect to be able to cook my own damn food! I order the food anyway which had I been able to cook my own meals WOULD HAVE BEEN CHEAPER THAN THE OPTIONS THEY GAVE ME FOR THEM TO COOK! And there was nosignage regarding the two party rule. It’s on their website under menus! I’m sorry but when you have a customer that wants korean bbq LET THEM...
