Yummy Korean Bar-B-Q in Honolulu lives up to its name and then some. For just $19 you get a BBQ chicken plate stacked with flavor plus four veggie sides that are fresh, tasty, and definitely not just filler. The food is hot, the portions are solid, and everything tastes like it was made with love and a little bit of garlic magic.

The staff is friendly and fast, and the price is totally reasonable for the amount of food you get. It’s the kind of place that hits the spot whether you’re a local or just chasing down your next great plate lunch. Quick, delicious, and totally worth a return visit.

The moment it hits the grill—whether it’s marinated galbi or clean, unadorned brisket—you know you’re in serious territory. The fat renders fast, dripping into flame, sending up that unmistakable smoke signal that bypasses reason and goes straight for the animal part of your brain. This is beef that wants heat, that improves under pressure, that rewards restraint if you let it char just enough before the flip.

The galbi is sweet without being apologetic about it, soy and sugar tempered by garlic, the marinade soaked deep into the muscle rather than painted on like a sales pitch. Cook it right and it pulls with a gentle resistance, the kind that reminds you you’re eating something that once had a life. The unmarinated cuts—bulgogi-style or brisket—are where the place really shows its confidence. No camouflage, no tricks. Just good beef, sliced thin, trusting the grill and your attention span to do the rest.

Wrap that beef in lettuce, add raw garlic and a green chili, drag it through ssamjang, and you get the full argument in one bite: fat, heat, sweetness, funk, crunch. It’s loud, messy, and profoundly satisfying. You don’t talk while eating it. You nod. You reach for another piece. Conversation can wait.

Yummy doesn’t moralize about provenance or wag its finger about technique. It simply puts beef in front of you that behaves the way beef should when exposed to fire. This is barbecue as a collaboration between cow, cook, and flame—and when it works, which it does here, you leave smelling like smoke and feeling like you made the right decisions today.

I ordered the meat Jun, it wasn’t that bad, could be cooked a little more. Also had the cucumbers and tofu which was alright. They also include some soy sauce and hot sauce in the container at no extra expense which was nice. I get the impression that the Restraunt has a similar layout to subway the way the food works its way down the line… The customer service was alright, I wouldn’t say the person that took my order was necessarily friendly but it wasn’t a bad experience. Overall I think it was similar to panda express but panda express Is better.

The food tasted good but me and my husband have been very sick afterwards. We ordered a big Katsu this happens when oil is not fresh or heavily recycled. So I probably won’t be back.

So ono! Portions are generous, even the mini plate is average size plate. People are nice and keep it very clean.

Garlic chicken was disgusting. It was like day old and refried. No meat, just hard greasy skin/breading. Waste of money. Wish I could post a picture it was beyond gross.

The food and service was great. Huge portions, I should have went with the mini. The mac was a highlight.

Staff is not friendly. She raised her voice at us. No wonder it’s so empty. Honestly go somewhere else if you can. It’s only good for convenience but I’d much rather go to the Panda Express across the way for that.

Meatjun & spicy pork plate is $21.49 + tax.
Water cup is $0.50 +tax.

Side note: they only accept card. No cash.

I never like to leave bad reviews, but this was genuinely the worst meal I’ve had when eating out. I spent way too much on mushy rice, flavorless Mac salad, kim chee that did not taste like Kim Chee, and “barbecue” chicken that had no seasoning or marinade. Every single part of my dish was awful and I spent $16 on it. If you want good Korean BBQ, the only place to go is Gina’s in Kapolei.
