Our go TO KBBQ spot! Great combos and AYCE. No complaints just good food amd a good time
Staff was super friendly! I loved all the flavors of the pork belly. I'd definitely recommend coming and getting the 8 flavors with more than 2-3 people! I came here with just my boyfriend and it was A LOT of food! My favorite one was the wine flavor and garlic! Definitely recommend!
The food here is always great! The service was fast and plenty of parking! If there are only 2 people, all you can eat options are better. We came on a Friday evening around 7:30pm, it's busy, but only waited for about 20-25 mins.
My boyfriend and I came in right at 5pm on a Friday and the service was amazing! We were well taken care of and the restaurant was just opening so it was nice and peaceful. The different flavors are not as strong as you might think but the curry and spicy flavors are my favorite. There is an assortment you can try so everyone can taste everything. The banchan (side dishes) were so fresh and paired perfectly with the pork belly. The presentation was also so inviting. The only negative thing was that the kimchi fried rice was very soggy and tasted bland.
If this is your first time, definitely try all eight flavors of the pork belly bbq! I like that this places serves unlimited kimchi on the bbq plate as it tastes so much better after absorbing the flavor from the pork belly. The servers do a good job helping us cook the meat, although we went on a Tuesday and they were extremely busy/ understaffed. Food is really good and great selection of banchan as well. Recommended!
The whole experience was very good, from the service to the food. We ordered the AYCE basic set and all the side dishes came quickly. The meat came after a little while (sometimes we had the feeling that they were under staffed), and the 8 types of pork belly came all together. The waitress cooked our meat and was very friendly, letting us know when the meat or seafood soup (that was included in the set and was so good!) were ready. First piece in my mouth and I already knew that I came to the right place to eat. That particular day I was feeling a little bummed for things that happened but that comforting and delicious meal just made me forget everything haha. For dessert, we had the mozzarella kimchi fried rice that was also good, but of course, not the star of the show. We left feeling full, loved and thinking when would be the next time we're gonna go back.
Happened to stumble on this KBBQ during lunch hour on a weekend. Surprised it wasn't busier, maybe we got lucky, but was seated and served swiftly. The interior is large and many other tables that could accommodate bigger parties (probably would call ahead and make reservations). We decided on a preset menu where we got to sample the 8 different marinated pork belly and so happy we did (miso, garlic, wine, to just name a few). Mouth watering and oh so satisfying, come with an appetite and maybe a bigger group of friends to share and taste it all. Plenty of parking available in the lot, you can't go wrong with this KBBQ spot!
I haven't been to Eight in a very long time, so recently, I went on a Saturday night and was pleasantly surprised how good it was. This place used to be super busy which deterred me to go, but on a Saturday night, it was not as busy, which was great and no wait (which was even better). The menu has changed since I went there is a AYCE option and a la carte option. I was not super hungry so opted for a la carte combo. My combo had the different combo of pork, soup, and fried rice at the end. I also really loved all of their side dishes, including the heaping of garlic they gave. Really, really enjoyed it. The waiter were also super nice and paced the meats very well. The pork was still as good as I remembered, my favorite was the pork belly. I stuffed at the end, but make sure to leave a little room for the cheese fried rice at the end. I will definitely come back here. Decent price, very good meat and loved the banchans. Also, great service.
(IG: @foodwithdeni) We ordered combo A which includes 8 flavors of pork belly, seafood soybean stew, kimchi fried rice, kimchi, bean sprouts, mixed salad & assorted banchan (serves 2-3 people) It was more than enough food for the two of us but our priority was to finish the pork belly. We enjoyed every flavor but the ones that we liked the most were garlic, sesame & miso paste! 8 Pork Belly Flavors--Wine, Original, Sesame, Garlic, Herb, Curry, Miso Paste & Red Pepper Paste
I always miss this spot when I'm not in LA! The prices are honestly pretty good, because for the $28.95 combo, you get all 8 flavors of pork belly, kimchi pork stew, mozzarella kimchi fried rice, salad, and banchan. Not to mention they have bottomless beer/soju 3 days of the week! Only for $9! & those 3 days are also AYCE days if you're feeling really hungry lol. If you're in the mood for beef, they also have it on the a la carte menu. Over the years of frequenting this spot, quality has stayed pretty consistent, and it is one of my favorite places in the area for kbbq.
