Reviews
We got seated right away and noticed the salad and banchans are already on the table. Salad & kimchi didn’t seem that fresh anymore and fish cake was a bit hard so we wondered how long it’s been exposed out there. We skipped the side dishes and grilled the meats. The meats were ok: nothing to rave/complain about.
We noticed they weren’t proactive about changing the grill as well. On our way out, we noticed more empty tables with the side dishes and salad already sitting there…
There seems to be a new KBBQ in town every other week that’s exciting to try so I’m not sure we’ll be returning to this one anytime soon.
Definitely a place I will return.
The sides were kind of a letdown though. They have corn cheese but it was mostly just a pile of cheese with like ten corn kernels. We had to ask for more or at least a full order since that is one of our favorite sides. No gyoza or edamame either which was kind of a bummer. Their sauces made up for it though. The spicy red sauce had a good kick with a unique flavor to it and the brisket dipping sauce was super flavorful with jalapenos and garlic. The teriyaki beef and filet were definitely the best ones to get. The brisket, ribeye, and short rib were not bad but just not super flavorful and the brisket pieces were a little too thick. Our server was awesome and really on top of it the whole time. I would go back again and just hope they improve the side selection a bit. Solid meat and a good time overall. Definitely cool spot and can see where and why the hype is there for this place!
The restaurant can get quite busy at night, so it’s best to plan accordingly. Keep in mind that there is a two-hour limit on all-you-can-eat orders, and you’ll be charged for any uneaten meat. However, the portions are quite large, so this shouldn’t be an issue for most diners.
The food itself is delicious, with standout dishes like the ribs and brisket. While the service can be a bit slow at times, it generally improves as the meal progresses. The waitstaff can be a bit sneaky in turning down the burners, but this is a small issue overall.
All That Barbecue is still one of the best Korean BBQ options in the Irvine. If you’re looking to avoid crowds, try visiting on a weekday soon after they open. While the service could use a bit of work, the quality of the food makes up for any minor issues.
Not a horrible experience but I would choose Gen, a similar restaurant nearby for better menu options, better service and much better sauces at a lower price.
Details:
The atmosphere here is pretty nice for an all-you-eat restaurant at a great location in Irvine, right behind 99-Ranch market and across from the sister restaurant, All That Shabu (Same owners). I spend about 85 for two adults and no drinks (including tip).
You get salad, kimchi, rice paper, cucumbers, potato salad and picked radish before you are even seated which was nice. You can order 4 meats at a time and the portions are pretty large, at times I had to request smaller portions. Started out with Rib Eye and fillet, not anticipate a 3/4” thick steak which took forever to cook on that grill. since the staff kept turning the grill down, the steak ended up cooking longer to get a sear on both sides and went past medium rare which is a shame. The fillet was even thicker and had the same issue. Spicy brisket, regular brisket, bulgogi and beef belly were the best meats I tried and meat quality was pretty high.
Unfortunately, the sauces were not as tasty or flavorful as other similar restaurants and no spicy option such as garlic chili sauce. I almost thought I had lost my taste buds as everything tasted bland.
The wait staff seemed nice but that was the worst part of the experience. The only time he visited our table was if I flagged him down after walking past us several times (the entire night). He always rushed us and didn’t wait long enough for us to speak. I had to ask for rice, rice paper and kimchi several times and it didn’t arrive for about 10 minutes after my request. I also had to request someone to change my grill since bulgogi and spicy brisket make a huge mess and leave a lot of residue.
The menu was also very limited. No Veggies or other options beyond sliced meats.
