Daeho Las Vegas — Restaurant in Spring Valley

We visited DAE Ho in Las Vegas today as a family of four, excited to try their famous galbi-jjim (beef short ribs).

First, we were warmly welcomed by the wonderful host at the entrance — thank you for the kind hospitality. The manager, in particular, was impressively attentive and thoughtful. When he knew that my husband especially enjoyed boiled beef and galbi-jjim, he personally made sure a generously filled plate of meat was served in front of him. The attention to detail did not go unnoticed.

Although some reviews mentioned the prices being high, the portion in front of my husband made it feel well worth it. Throughout the meal, the manager checked in regularly to ensure we had everything we needed and made us feel very well taken care of.

The Food The galbi-jjim was flavorful , and we appreciated being able to choose the spice level. The addition of rice cakes, extra glass noodles, and cheese really enhanced the dish. Steamed rice was served generously. Side dishes were minimal but clean. However, as many reviewers have noted, the napa cabbage kimchi was off in its seasoning, and the kkakdugi (radish kimchi) was overly fermented — more like aged very old pickled radish than fresh kimchi.

We asked the manager for a recommendation for a low-alcohol drink, and he suggested a plum-flavored one priced at $29 — not inexpensive. Unfortunately, the alcohol content was much stronger than expected, so I couldn’t drink it. My husband ended up finishing it. It seems some additional training on drink recommendations would be helpful.

Overall, the service was kind and attentive, and the interior was clean and well-maintained.

While the restaurant had an overall upscale and refined atmosphere, it was somewhat disappointing to see staff members gathering in the middle of the dining area to chat and giggle. That kind of behavior felt out of place — though I understand it may happen during slower hours.

With a bit more attention to this aspect, the restaurant could truly deliver a fully satisfying experience — combining elegance, delicious food, and warm service in a way that lives up...

This somewhat intimidating Korean spot is excellent for a special group dinner. Recommend going with someone familiar with Korean food. The menu is pretty large and it’s not always clear what menu items will look like when it comes out. But if you’re patient and check some reviews out ahead of time your group can have a wonderful meal.

Got starters of dumplings and a glass noodle dish. The dumplings are fire and the glass noodles were very good too. I think there’s a dumpling soup I’ll have to get next time. Probably don’t need any starters unless you’re super hungry. The main dishes are gonna be more than enough to fill up.

Got Daeho suyuk which is cooked on a burner at the table. It’s a beef brisket dish in broth and topped with A LOT of scallion/green onion. The brisket was delicious, would probably add extra meat next time.

Got the Daeho kalbijjim. It’s the dish they blast with a burner at the table if you order it topped with cheese. Ours had short rib, rice cake and corn cob pieces. Comes in a pretty spicy red sauce. It’s a big pot of food enough for 4 or more. Not cheap at around 80 bucks. It’s really good.

Place itself is higher end looking, clean modern decor. Yes they have younger guys working there and may not be the most attentive, but it’s fine. They get the job done and mean well.

It’s going to be a pricey meal if you get a few things to share. But it’s an experience and the setting is nice enough to make this a special occasion spot. Spend some time with the menu and check reviews to feel more comfortable ordering....

Daeho is a KALBIJJIM Symphony. You must order that or the Suyuk because those are their specialities.

Daeho came to Vegas from SF not with a shout, but with the soft, alluring aroma of simmering beef.

Daeho is a testament to Korean culinary traditions. It’s neither sprawling nor ostentatious, yet every corner of its modern space seems to resonate with the energy of countless shared meals and memories.

The star of the show, without question, is the Kalbi Jjim. A dish that requires patience and reverence, Daeho's rendition is nothing short of poetic. The beef short ribs, tender to the point of implausibility, come bathed in a sauce that strikes that delicate balance between sweet and savory. Paired with perfectly steamed rice, each bite is a comforting embrace, a momentary transport to a bustling Seoul eatery.

But Daeho doesn’t stop at Kalbi Jjim. The variety of banchan, those delightful side dishes, showcase the breadth and depth of Korean flavors, each one as lovingly crafted as the main dishes.

Service here is prompt and genuine. There's an unmistakable warmth, reminiscent of family-run establishments where every guest is treated like kin.

Daeho isn't just a destination—it's an experience, an ode to the soulful, hearty flavors of a rich...
