Went for mother's day, 10/10 the food was delicious. A bit on the pricey side but worth it!

One of the best KBBQ places in Beaverton area. If you've been to socal/convoy SD KBBQ this is as good as it gets in this area lol buttttt I will say the portions are pretty small and it feels like you gotta borderline harass your server to bring you more lol and they be side eyeing, as if you're not there for AYCE they have a great waiting room on the side and have a nice vibe with the music videos. In the future I hope to see more portions and a bit more speed on bringing out the meat especially for the price!

I don't recall this place being exceptional, so the service here might be hit or miss. However, we had a much better experience thanks to Zach (the cashier on our receipt, and I hope it's him) compared to my previous visit to the Beaverton location. We visited with a large group on a Thursday night and were fortunate to have no wait time. Whenever Zach brought out our plates, we quickly emptied them and were ready to order more within 5 minutes. Zach's attentiveness and excellent service stood out. He ensured we were full and satisfied throughout our meal. Although 18% gratuity was automatically added to our bill due to our party size, Zach certainly earned it. I've never had these many rounds at an AYCE KBBQ place. I have no complaints about the meat quality. However, I wish they would offer more steamed egg servings. One steamed egg for every six guests is challenging to share among a group. This place will leave your clothes smelling like BBQ afterward, so it's wise to dress accordingly.

This is my preferred AYCE kbbq spot, the menu has more variety compared to places like Kkoki. Service is pretty consistent, not the best but not bad. I do feel like they start to get stingy & come around a lot less after we order anymore than like 3 rounds. Place is cool, very loud, K-pop music playing in the background, people chatting, grills sizzling. Great place for hanging out with friends & drinking a little too much soju. This location is my preferred over their sister location in Beaverton as well, we tried the one in Beaverton once & lord our server must've been having a bad day because they gave us the nastiest attitude & barely checked on us. We had to ask other servers for help. Make sure to always get a grill change before your next round.

We went for the first time and to be honest I don't understand the negative reviews. There were two of us and it was like 2-3 pm when we went so a weird hour. The restaurant was clean, service was incredibly friendly, continued to check on us and were very quick. We did the all you could eat and to be honest with the two of us we struggled to finish that second plate of meat. We loved all the sides they brought to us, the sauce and what I assume is MSG was great as well. I don't feel like they were stingy with the meat they brought or they slowed service at all! We also got to mixed drinks which were AMAZING. Honestly we had fun, loved the food and left very happy.

My friend and I stopped by on our way back home on a Sunday afternoon. It was pretty empty, I think I saw two other tables. But we came at the right time because after we started eating, the place got packed! The ambiance is nice, a little dark and they play Korean pop music videos on the tv. So your typical Korean joint. Service was a little slow after we sat down and ordered the first round. We did the AYCE plus package. You have to order 4 meats per round unless it's your final round. The meats come out in one tray. Not even a large tray just a normal size tray you'd find at any other kbbq place. Each round only had 1 strip of short rib and maybe 3-4 pieces of the other meat. Idk if they're trying to not have people waste food but if they're gonna do that small portion, they should be quicker on checking in on us to reorder. We finished our first round and the grill was burning while we waited for someone to come take our order again. Once it got busier they got a little quicker. Overall meat was good and the price is good. We got our moneys worth and did about 4-5 rounds of meat. Would stop by again if I was in the area.

Too hungry to order the cook-your-own meats and veggies, we ordered the teriyaki chicken and Korean BBQ ribs. First, the place is incredibly clean and modern. We walked in and thought we were in a club! Second, the staff was friendly and provided good customer service. Third, the teriyaki chicken and BBQ ribs were very good. So good that we ate ALL of it! But not the kimchi. Neither of us are fans of fermented cabbage. I know, I know, a lot of people are. They also bring you sides of other veggies but neither of us are huge veggie people so we passed on all of that. We did eat all of the white rice - so we passed on all the healthy stuff for a grain with no nutritional value. lol I do want to bring a group back to do the actual cook-your-own dinner. I've done it once before (at a similar place) and it's fun to do as a group.

K-Town Korean BBQ in Portland, Oregon is an absolute must-visit for anyone looking for a fun and collaborative dining experience. I'm a huge fan of Korean BBQ, but not all restaurants are created equal. K-Town has a youthful and vibrant energy with giant tv screens playing sports and K-Pop. With cement floors and lots of stainless steel, the space is filled with loud music and a cacophony of voices and kitchen sounds. If you are looking for a relaxing dinner filled with great conversation, this might not be the place. The real star of the show is the food... simply delicious food. The menu offers a wide variety of meat and vegetables to grill at your table. Do yourself a favor and be a little adventurous when ordering. The staff are friendly and communicative, and always have lots of recommendations. Feel free to ask for a sample portion of any of the ingredients, just to try it out. You can always order more. My favorites include: Bulgogi, thinly sliced beef brisket, Teriyaki Chicken, Daepae Samgyupsal, and the miso pork belly. Be warned, this place can be very busy on the weekends. On several occasions I've had to wait 2 hours to be seated, and the lobby can be brutal when hungry folks are crowded and hot. There are a few bar tables in front of the restaurant for those who want to wait outside, but it's quite noisy due to the high traffic intersection nearby. Come early with friends and an empty belly and you'll be sure to have an amazing time.
