Decent quality, but not much differentiation from other bbq places. The group of 14 opted for premium. We get everything from the menu. I stayed with seafood mostly for the meal. We cooked it ourselves. That in itself was challenging. Overall, a decent place to have dinner. To top off the end of the meal was a choice of ice cream. All included whether you go in or out.
As always, being with friends makes the experience memorable.

My group tried the premium menu Korean BBQ with no hotpot. I think it was a good choice for the larger meat options. We really liked one of the marinated steak pieces – otherwise, the rest of the selection was alright. A few cuts had a lot of fat chucks that we didn’t care for and had to cut off.
The corn cheese came in a folded aluminum foil pack so it ended up getting burnt because we couldn’t see if it was ready or not. There seemed to be a lack of cheese. I really like the pineapple option.

AYCE Korean BBQ has good reviews. I’m in! I found Chako Korean BBQ & Hot Pot on the internet. The restaurant offers AYCE, and the reviews are excellent. I love their dining room as soon as I walked into the restaurant. Our waitress is very lovely, and the other employees are also super helpful and friendly. The meals are good compared to most Korean BBQ restaurants. I tried KBBQ only this time. I didn’t try the hot pot. I’ll try it next time when I come again!

Preface our experience was soured because of a couple unable to control their child screaming for 10 minutes next to us with no staff bothering to ask the family if they need accommodations for the child or move my table to another location in a generally open resturant

The good: kid friendly prices with a lot of options, great sides selection and refills, and soda drinks included with asking price. Sauce bar is awesome

The bad: their meat selection is very tough compared to other kbbq places I’ve had. Lean if you like that kinda.

After trying theit entire menu Their appetizers are very good. Stand out good picks are the Beef Belly, salmon, miso butter shrimp, pork cheek, and their frozen tofu for hotpot.

I recommend skipping the hotpot, go with the kbbq since their grill is generous and big.

Chako Restaurant was incredibly clean, and the food was delicious! I ordered both the hotpot and BBQ, and only had to pay an additional $4, which was totally worth it. The ingredients were fresh, healthy, and very clean . you could really taste the quality. The server was super friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. It’s a great place to come with friends or family. 10/10!

I had lunch here today, and while the wait was manageable, the overall experience left much to be desired. When we were seated, I immediately noticed that the chairs had grease and food crumbs on them. My bowl was also dirty, and to make matters worse, there was a bug in my water.

The meat itself was quite tough, though I will say they did have a good selection to choose from. On the positive side, the staff were prompt and attentive, they quickly changed our grill and wiped down the tables and chairs after I pointed out the issues. However, the floor hadn’t been swept, which was concerning, especially for a restaurant environment.

They’ve only been open a few months, so I understand there may still be some growing pains, but cleanliness and food quality should be a top priority from the start. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this place and most certainly won’t be returning.

You guys deserve 10 stars. And I will take the time to give you my most sincere compliments. My 6 friends and I drove an hour to come here to enjoy this BBQ and it was really worth it. When we walked in the door, 2 female staff greeted us with bright smiles, because I had an appointment at 7 o’clock, she led me to the table. When I ordered food, a guy named Delvon came to serve and guide me very enthusiastically and thoughtfully, always asking about us, I really appreciate the enthusiasm and thoughtfulness of the staff here. The food here is very fresh and delicious. The staff and the restaurant owner are very kind, they even gave us a very large piece of beef, because we had eaten many dishes and were full, I refused. Thank you for your hospitality and respect for customers, and you also gave me a 10% discount on the total bill. I will introduce my relatives to come here to enjoy your delicious food. We will be back. Wish your restaurant always has many customers supporting and success. Our weekend was meaningful. Thank you lovely people.

We visited on the second day of their soft opening and were thoroughly impressed. The restaurant was exceptionally clean, the atmosphere inviting, and the staff noticeably attentive to customer feedback. Unlike many soft launches that require weeks to stabilize, this team is already operating at 95% readiness. The food was fresh and high-quality, the music energizing, and the environment well-maintained.

This level of operational maturity so early is rare. I hope they sustain these standards long-term—I’d love to see them thrive as a standout in the Tri-Valley dining scene.

Special recognition goes to Kenny, the new manager, whose leadership was clearly visible. He personally engaged with guests and handled feedback with professionalism and care. His team reflects that same ethos: Trish showed exceptional kindness in assisting my senior parents with their meal; Alex, who trained the crew, ensured every team member understood the service flow; and Eli, though not assigned to our table, stepped in to help with grace and team spirit.

The synergy and dedication of this crew made our Korean BBQ experience feel elevated and memorable. Credit to the owner for assembling such a capable team. I’m already looking forward to returning with friends to support what I believe will become a local favorite.

This is a must-try! The food here is top-tier, especially the premium meat selection, which was exceptionally good. The hot pot was also a definite highlight-so flavorful. What really stood out, though, was the incredibly fast and attentive service. They quickly changed our grill and brought out new cuts of meat, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable dining pace.

This was hands down one of the best Korean BBQ restaurants we’ve ever visited — not just for the food, but for the incredible customer service that made our night unforgettable.

From the moment we sat down, Raymond went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. He was attentive, informative, and genuinely passionate about making sure we enjoyed our meal to the fullest. Whether it was explaining the menu, offering recommendations, or just checking in with a warm smile!

Caylee was equally phenomenal. She frequently checked in on us with such kindness and care, making sure we had everything we needed without us ever having to ask. Her thoughtfulness and cheerful attitude truly elevated the entire dining experience.

The ordering system through the tablet was super convenient — lightning fast, easy to use, and ensured everything came out fresh and exactly as ordered. Combined with the high-quality food and unbeatable service, this made for a flawless evening.

If you’re looking for delicious Korean BBQ paired with genuine hospitality that makes you feel valued and appreciated, this is the place. We’ll definitely be coming back soon and make sure to asking for Raymond and Caylee by name!

Also we order the Premium selection! This will be the best bang for your buck because they have WAYGU options!!!
