This is hands down the best authentic Korean BBQ I’ve ever had! We’ve tried many spots throughout the Midwest and South, but this place in Murfreesboro truly stands out as the most flavorful and delicious.
The service is top-notch—every staff member was polite, courteous, and incredibly friendly, which made the whole experience even better. The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere, it’s clean, welcoming, and perfect for enjoying a meal with family or friends.
One thing I really appreciated is the generous portions. The banchan (side dishes) were plentiful and tasty, and the meat portions were very satisfying. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor.
If you’re in Murfreesboro, or even nearby cities like Nashville or Smyrna, I highly recommend stopping by. We’re already planning our next visit to try more of their soups and other Korean dishes—I honestly can’t wait to go back!

Ordered the edamame, I am late to this game, but I decided to give it a try. It was ok. Also ordered the katsu, it was a little dry, the sauce helped. Definitely didn’t need the plum wine but I can’t help myself. Needless to say, had a little left over, to go box please. All of the banchan plates were left clean, love them. Highly recommend if you haven’t tried it yet.

Arisu Korean BBQ & Tofu delivers one of Murfreesboro’s most consistent and enjoyable dining experiences. The restaurant is spotless, welcoming, and well-organized, offering authentic Korean barbecue with excellent flavor and freshness in every bite.
Our group received outstanding service from Jennifer, who went above and beyond the standard of professionalism. She kept our drinks full, refilled side dishes and banchan without delay, and even anticipated details like extra napkins before anyone asked. Her attentiveness and friendly attitude truly elevated our visit and set the tone for what great service should be.
The food was exceptional—tender, flavorful meats, vibrant side dishes, and fresh tofu soups. The Beef Bulgogi, Spicy Pork, Prime Brisket, and BBQ + Hot Pot Combo are must-try favorites.
Arisu also offers comfortable seating for groups up to about 14 guests, making it perfect for family gatherings or team dinners. Every part of the experience reflects quality, care, and teamwork.
⭐ 5 / 5 Highly Recommended.

First time trying Korean BBQ and I really liked it! The food tasted great and was fresh enough that the lettuce was picked from one of the owner’s gardens! The atmosphere was laid back and a little fancy. The service was warm!

Great date spot, family gathering, or business meeting spot! Absolutely a gem of a restaurant. The staff is friendly and very attentive. Great selection of entrees and the bbq gives you a ton of meat and unlimited sides. Every single item was delicious! I cant even begin to explain how good this place is. 1,000,000 out of ten WILL eat here again.

This place had been recommended to us by a handful of people over the past few months. I tried kimchi for the first time. We ordered the chicken bulgolgi bento box, Pork Katsue, Jjampong. Everything was very good. Great atmosphere as well. Our server was accommodating and very personable. Would visit again.
