Best WLM Reviews
Been here a couple times now, but it’s been consistently good to us so far!
Well priced KBBQ spot with great selections of meat for dinner and other dishes you can order as well, such as Steamed egg, corn cheese, stews and more! Pretty funny names for each item on the menu, making it a fun experience in a different way.
Service speeds can fluctuate depending on how late and busy they are that day.
All That Barbecue is a great Korean BBQ restaurant with a modern and clean ambiance. Although the restaurant is a bit pricier than some other options in the Tustin area, the quality of the meat selections is worth the extra cost. The menu offers a wide variety of choices, making it a great option for groups with varying tastes.
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.
Overall:
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.
Decent KBBQ with quality meat. However, there’s many anti-justifications.
1. Amenities: When it’s crowded, it will get smokey. Indoor propane burning leads to monoxide release. It was so smokey it was like a morning fog and workers refused to open the doors due to the “cold”. If I’m paying $47 to eat with friends, I want to have comfort and breathe well. I also had to get up and get a handle for the flame from another table. Again if people are being charged $37/$47 can’t they afford a plastic handle for each table?
2. Service: workers and food is alright. They do fine accommodation the needs of 6 and explaining what meats are what. However, they do not greet you nor thank you for being there at all. Again, they skimp out on ventilation but expect large parties and normal people to pay $37/$47 to eat here. Mid service for premium prices.
3. Price: so its $26/$33 for lunch/dinner. It was outrageous that a party of six came out to $280 with each person paying $47. On top of that, they calculate gratitude with thievery. It’s not 18% your entire bill, its 18% per person. The difference between 5 and 6 people is 18% increase of your share to pay for us, and a little more meat for them to bring out. Severely unjustified.
In short, with the poor ventilation, lack of flame knobs, improper salutation of guests, and the severe price gouging… I can never say this place is worth sitting in a inclosed box of monoxide release. When I sat down and saw the price for groups at $44 everything internally told me I need to get up and go. But I sat and gave a chance I wish I never did.
Their meat was alright tho.
Did lunch special, has beef tongue and few seafood, worth the $$ food quality amd side dish is good!
The price for each person is $34.99, that's all you can eat korean bbq. The meats were fresh. It may not be the best quality, but it's definitely worth it.
I really recommend going to this place because it has the best BBQ i ever tried in my life!!! The best thing about this place is It isn’t a normal restaurant. It’s actually a BUFFET!!! So you can order unlimited BBQ you want! It has BBQ like ribeye, pork, and many more. Same with the drinks.
TIPS
Mon-Fri: 25.99 per person(8 years older)
Sat-sun: 32.99 per person(8 years older)
4 years old or less is free
And the MOST important tip is you need a person who knows how to grill BBQ because it’s a buffet not a restaurant
The food is really salty. We ordered 5 different meat. 3/5 come out over marinated, it taste over sweet and salty. 2/5 of meat not salt because they are just raw meat, did not marinated at all. The service is just average. The scissor is not sharp. It’s not what I’ll excepted to get for 35.99 per person.
