Don Blanc is a place where you can enjoy top-notch service, fresh meat, and side dishes. The authentic, un-Americanized Korean food is truly delicious, and the servers are incredibly friendly. In particular, the two managers, John and Chris, never forget to provide what customers need, even though they’re busy, and they always have a smile on their face, making for a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience. Their delightful sense of humor always makes me happy. If I could, I’d love to visit this place often. If you’re craving authentic Korean barbecue, Korean beer, and delicious Korean side dishes, this is a restaurant I highly recommend.

We got the Supreme Set A for three people a bit to much food for 3 but go figure it feeds 4-5 people. But overall food and sides were hella good kimchi sour level was great and meat well seasoned. The staff were very attentive and even cooked all the meat for us. Definitely gonna be coming back

The BBQ melts in your mouth. One of the best Korean meals I’ve had in the bay, and service that sets the standard for personal care in you enjoying your food and entire meal experience. High recommend. They handled our big group of 10, made it look easy and made us feel like family.

​I recently had an incredible dining experience at DonBlac, and it’s easily one of the best KBBQ spots I’ve visited. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was spot on—modern, welcoming, and perfect for a great meal with friends or family.
​We decided on the Supreme Set B, and it was an absolute feast. The highlight, without a doubt, was the monster rib. It was truly on another level of delicious—tender, perfectly marbled, and packed with flavor. Every cut of meat was high quality and grilled to perfection.
​There’s nothing quite like pairing such a savory, rich meal with a cold glass of beer. It’s the ultimate combination and exactly what a great KBBQ experience is supposed to be. If you’re looking for top-tier food and a great atmosphere, DonBlac is the place to go!

This is a good, casual KBBQ experience for a group. Not the tastiest or the best bang for buck, but definitely serves as a good fix.

We had a reservation for five and a toddler on a Friday night and were seated pretty quickly. Parking spaces were tight in the lot but fortunately there was a lot of street parking a couple blocks away.

We ordered the supreme set A, a seafood pancake, corn cheese and bossom to share. Between us we shared a grill and had our designated cooks at the table (which is how we prefer it but some might prefer a place that cooks for you). The highlight was easily the galbi (as if often is) and we did wish that the bossom was a little less dry. The others were good (as expected) but nothing to write home about. The banchan was also very standard.

Service wise, the waiters were a little slow to take our order and to give refills (for water, lettuce, etc.). Though, the yogurt soju special for our friend’s birthday was a really nice touch.

Like most KBBQ places, it’s helpful to bring your own bags for your clothes as the hoods aren’t the strongest, and it can get loud, but again – it’s a fairly standard experience.

Great quality meat and sides! We got the Beef Set A and an order small intestines and thought it was a good amount for two people. My favorite was the marinated boneless short ribs, but everything else was also good, especially with the sides. Service was incredible and our server even let us try large intestines free of charge (not shown in the picture), which we ended up loving!

Came here right at 12 for lunch on Tuesday and the service by John was amazing. The restaurant is very lucky to have him running the business. Highly recommended!

It’s always a good time coming here with delicious food and lots of drinks, including beer and soju! The huge beef ribs are tender and delicious, the pork jowl is just the right amount of flavor and chewiness. I would always come back here to eat delicious meat and be served as well by the courteous staff

Cute little place with a small parking lot in front. We were there early and there was no wait. Great quantity and quality of meat with those combos. Delicious side dishes! They will cook the meat for you! My favorites were the pumpkin and the jew meat.

3/2/2024 they just changed to a new owner. But I am thankful that the quality of meat did not drop a bit. Just a change of menu. Food is still very delicious. Loved the beef tartare and kimchi pancake.

Solid Korean BBQ in the East Bay!

I visited this spot with my buddy after having the desire to find a good Korean BBQ spot in the East Bay. We got there early, so getting a table was a breeze. This spot specializes in pork, but we also ordered Jumuluk (beef) as well.

The Banchan arrived at the table, all looked fresh and very tasty. The Kim chi was awesome. Presentation of the food was good and the meat were all marinated perfectly.

Service was solid and helped us navigate the menu with some recommendations and the restaurant itself was well equipped to handle the smoke, so you didn’t leave smelling like a complete BBQ unit.

This place is a must try in the East Bay!!!
