“The Silver Combo was stacked with quality cuts, from tender galbi to melt-in-your-mouth brisket.”

The Silver Combo was stacked with quality cuts, from tender galbi to melt-in-your-mouth brisket. The banchan variety was fresh and flavorful, with the steamed egg and soybean soup being the perfect warm comfort between grilling sessions. Meat quality was top of its line , and everything cooked beautifully on the grill. Service was just as impressive. Our server checked in regularly, helped place the meat on the grill, and even flipped it for us so we could just relax and enjoy. Definitely a spot to satisfy any KBBQ craving! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“We had an awesome experience at Galbi .”

We had an awesome experience at Galbi ! This was our first time trying Korean bbq and I must say this is going to be our fav cuisine. Some of our favs were seafood pancake, the bokkeum and spicy stir fried pork. Highly recommend these items and the place. The service is another level.

“Top quality meat, authentic and delicious LA Galbi, cold noodle, galbi soup and side dishes.”

Top quality meat, authentic and delicious LA Galbi, cold noodle, galbi soup and side dishes. The price is not cheap but you are paying for the quality of meat. The staff were attentive and friendly. Most customers during lunch hour were groups of Koreans which is a good sign. This place is enjoyed by the people of origin of this cuisine.

We chose this restaurant to celebrate my mom’s 70th birthday with a group of about 20 people, and it was the perfect choice! From start to finish, the service was incredible—friendly, attentive, and impressively quick, even with our large party. The food was absolutely delicious, with everyone at the table raving about their meals. The staff went above and beyond to make the evening special, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. It’s not easy to accommodate a big group so seamlessly, but they did it with ease. We’re so grateful for such a wonderful experience and will definitely be back! Thank you to the staff!!!!!
