The food was amazing and full of flavor. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The service was also outstanding — the staff was very friendly, welcoming, and attentive. I will definitely come back again!

Wow, I had the best dining experience here! The food was absolutely delicious, the place is beautiful, and the service was 10/10. I don’t remember our server’s name, but he was incredibly kind and took the time to explain everything to us since it was our first time here. He was very attentive and truly the best Korean BBQ grill master! This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants now. I can’t wait to come back with my family and friends!

I’ve had this place bookmarked for a while and finally came in, it’s so good! Love the ambience, it’s fun and large, great for groups. We got the combo 1 gold package with an order of bibimbop and it was so much food. Great quality meats and the banchan was so good. Really friendly staff too, Ted is the best! Highly suggest!

Phenomenal. Great quality meat, very quick service. The crushed pear juice was a pleasent suprise for a non-alcoholic option. Get the mixed platter, I recommend both beef and pork!
I liked the KPOP being played and I don’t even listen to it!
Reservation required.

Came late on a Saturday night and were surprised it was pretty quiet. Hosts were friendly and welcoming.

We ordered the Daebak combo with the gold package. Portions were decent for three people, and for once we didn’t leave KBBQ feeling overly stuffed. The samgyeopsal and chadol were really good, and the kalbi, which I usually don’t order but was included in the combo, was surprisingly delicious. Banchan selection was decent, though the kimchi wasn’t good at all. I did appreciate that they serve purple rice.

Service was a mixed experience. Our server rushed through cooking all the meat with very little interaction, pushing cooked meat to the side of the grill where some fell onto the tabletop and mixed into the veggies and cheese corn, then adding raw meat that touched the cooked food and vegetables. I would’ve enjoyed the meal more if we were able to cook it ourselves and take our time.

The doenjang jjigae included in the gold package was good and generously portioned, but the kimchi jjigae was a bit salty. I also ordered the mul naengmyeon for $16, which was easily a 10/10 despite being pricey. I’d definitely order it again.

Atmosphere wise, it has a fun nighttime vibe with music. Worth noting they offer a free bottle of soju for leaving a Google review, which may explain the high number of 5-star reviews.

Overall, I’d rate Daebak a 7.5/10. There aren’t many KBBQ options open late, so I’ll probably come back!

I’d only had Korean BBQ once before visiting Daebak, but the staff was so helpful when ordering. Love that it’s open on a Monday! We arrived early but by the time we finished our meal, there was quite the crowd. The meat was cooked perfectly, and sauces and sides were excellent. We got to try some specialty kimchi, which was really good! I loved all the different possible flavor combinations, and can confidently say no two bites were the same. The atmosphere was fun and upbeat, and I loved that the restaurant played K-pop. This would be a great spot for a celebratory dinner or big group, but also equally as excellent for a date night or small get together. I will be back!

This restaurant is a true gem. The food is absolutely delicious and bursting with flavor. The service was outstanding; the staff was so welcoming and friendly. A huge and unexpected highlight was the tableside cooking—it made for an amazing and memorable experience. I’ll definitely be back soon!

There were mixed reviews but we were pretty impressed. The atmosphere is nice. They have these hoods over the bbq so their wasn’t a huge issue with the smell which im sensitive too since I have asthma. The food was pretty good. Pricy but good. Our waitress was nice n cooked all our food. Nice touch. Only thing is menu is a bit confusing… but it all worked out well.

I just had a terrible experience at this Daebak. It’s so embarrassing that I took my friend there for the first time. I usually dine at Daebak Chinatown, and the experience is completely different.

I felt the portions here were smaller compared to the Chinatown location. At the Chinatown location, you can spend just $50 and be completely full, and you get free banchan refills if you politely ask. But here, I had to order extra combos, there were no free banchan refills, and each person ended up spending over $75.

Another thing is the service attitude at the Chinatown location is very welcoming. The servers genuinely care about customer satisfaction. Here, the server kept dropping the meat off the grill onto the table, and then PUTTING IT BACK ON THE GRILL without any apology.

I will never go back to this Daebak. Even though the Daebak in Chinatown is usually busier, the experience is infinitely better.

This is my second time coming here and the quality of the food never disappoints. The brand of soju they carry is better than most places. The only issue I had was that this
time it felt like less meat, and felt rushed. Shout out to the older woman who greets up front! She gave my daughter a KPOP Demon Hunter charm for her backpack she was so happy!
