Seoul BBQ Diamond Bar Reviews
I drove an hour to try this place out lol, and man it was amazing! We got here around 6pm and it was just us and another table…. But it got filled up after the hour! Anyway, You get to order via a tablet which made the experience a bit more enjoyable and cozy. The spicy tofu soup is by far the best & my favorite, it’s spicy and it hits the spot!!! The Cajun chicken was okay but I wouldn’t get it again, but hey you get to try different meats so it was nice. I do wish they had more options for the soft drinks like lemonade or apple juice for the kiddos. Total for 3 adults and a 5 year old was close to $120. Would definitely come back if I’m ever in the area 🙂 the staff is friendly too and very attentive!
One of our go to KBBQ spots now. We ordered from the A menu which had a good selection. Our favorite is the Flying Tiger beef belly, it’s beef belly marinated in a green sauce that has cilantro and other ingredients I believe. That beef belly alone always makes us wanting to come back! We enjoyed the brisket, bulgolgi and pork belly as well. The banchan sides were all great too. Overall a solid KBBQ spot! We love that we can order from an iPad, it makes the service quick. The staff were friendly as well. We will be back for sure!
My first time trying this kbbq place. The place is cozy, and the staff are super friendly. The prices are great, and I like that you can choose from set A, B, or C. It’s also very convenient to order through the screen kiosk instead of waiting for staff. I definitely want to come back again.
This place is definitely getting a follow-up visit. We sat down and all this was immediately brought to our table. Kimchi was on point with a little kick. 👌 potatoes salad could use a little more flavor. Meat was of good quality.
Shhh…hidden gem! This ayce kbbq restaurant is outstanding! I’ve been to many kbbq places over the years and Seoul BBQ is top notch. Everything came out quickly, including the fried potstickers, water refills, meat refills, and grill changes. It was a laid back atmosphere, not a bunch of announcements or loud music. It had a good vibe for talking and hanging out with friends. We enjoyed several rounds of meats from the A and B menus, multiple grill changes, some peach flavored rice wine, and a fun time with friends and family. The beef bulgogi and beef brisket were excellent; everyone else in the group also enjoyed several other cuts of meat including garlic pork belly, flying tiger beef, short rib, beef belly, and others. The parking lot was a bit rough so beware. Everyone that went into the restaurant seemed well dressed and happy to be there.
Update: price goes up to $26.99 but it's still the best in the neighborhood. Meat quality is still really good. My family usually go to Rowland heights for AYCE Korean bbq, so we were excited when we heard about this one in Diamond Bar. We decided to try the $24.99 deal because we mainly eat brisket and bulgogi only. The place is new, nice, clean, very bright and not smoggy. It's roomy inside with lots of tables, good for large parties as well. The meat quality was really good, and the side dishes were really fresh with many varieties. Flying tiger beef was something new to us. It's thin sliced beef bellies with a special sauce which had a sweet and sour taste. It tasted more like Thai to me. Beef belly is usually oily, but with this special sauce, this juicy grilled beef belly can increase your appetite. Kimchi doshirak was also new to try. The waiter had egg, kimchi, rice and some sauce in a metal bento box, and he shook the box to mix the ingredients before serving. It tasted like kimchi stirred rice. Pretty good as a side. The service was excellent. Our grill plate was changed 4 times without asking. Overall, we were so happy with the taste and quality for this inexpensive price.
We arrived and there was no waiting time. I think this is a hole in the wall Korean BBQ. It is tucked away in the corner of this Plaza. The staff is extremely friendly and the service was amazing. The price is vary from menu a and menu B from 24 to 34 dollars. We have soju, beers, and great food. The quality of all the food was great and if you're into Korean barbecue I would definitely recommend that you try this place out. The earlier you get the better. My only complaint is they need to clean the tables with something else other than vinegar because it kind of made me want to throw up, because I hate the smell of vinegar.
This is a smaller AYCE compared to GEN or Thirsty Cow. The menu is tiered, $26.99 for menu A and $35.99 for menu B. There is a 90 minute time limit, which is plenty if time to fill your belly. The quality of the meat is good, and service is quick and efficient. We had the A menu and the variety was enough to keep it interesting. The banchan was solid, with the kimchi being noteworthy. The steamed egg was also exceptional. Plenty of parking as it is located in a strip mall. If your in Diamond Bar and you're looking for a good Korean AYCE at a reasonable price, Seol BBQ is hard to beat. Does forget to check in for your free ice cream sandwich.
Best Korean BBQ I've been to yet! I got some excellent meats from Menu A and when cooked, it was incredibly tender. A huge selling point, and you'll know what I'm talking about if you frequent kbbq places: The scissors work!!! They were super sharp and easy to cut the meat. I can't say much else. Just look at the photos and stop on by!
I like this place. It’s super low-key and all the food that brought out is super fresh and the service there was pretty cool we ate until we couldn’t eat anymore. We took home some food which cost an extra $10 but it’s OK because it was worth it. Go check this place out. Insta: jwardhooper22
Best Korean BBQ i’ve been eaten at ( ◠‿◠ ) Service was quick and attentive ! Price is very good and meats are good quality !
AYCE Korean BBQ spot with 2 sets of prices you can chose from. This place also has a beer and wine license so beer and soju are available. The meat selection is good and the service is attentive. They switched out my grates pretty quickly, which is always a plus.
Seoul BBQ uses quality meat. I added a picture of the ribeye from their more expensive menu. It was a terrific cut, and was fantastic. The other offerings were good too. The best part was that there was no wait.

Meat was very good. Definitely worth the drive
This place has you order from a tablet. Was kind cool that we didn't have to wait for the server to come by to ask for stuff and everything came as ordered. One of the better ones in the area and price was not too bad
Great food, decent price, service was not as good when it was only to waiters at a time but they did their best. Will go again for sure hoping things stay the same or better!
Seoul BBQ is a solid spot if you’re craving AYCE Korean BBQ 🔥 Great quality meats, quick refills, and that fun grill-at-your-table vibe that never gets old. Perfect for group hangs, meat lovers, and anyone who wants to eat a lot without stressing the bill. Why it’s worth it: 🥩 All-you-can-eat meats (beef, pork, chicken) 🔥 Grill at your table = always hot & fresh 🥬 Banchan + sauces to mix & match

Quality Korean BBQ AYCE in Diamond Bar. Meats are high quality especially on their premium AYCE menu. Banchan is just OK, but meats are carefully chosen. No frills KBB restaurant. Just indulge on your cravings of good KBB AYCE. Not crowded either.

Food was delicious. Different varieties of beef belly. Sides were good different stuff like the chicken bites and fries . Service was good a little slow at times but not bad considering only 2 people were working . Highly recommended
Seoul BBQ offers a very average Korean BBQ experience. The most flavorful dishes were the Ribeye steak, spicy cucumbers, and beef bulgogi. Unfortunately, the other items we tried—the spicy pork bulgogi, potato salad, and fish cakes—were unremarkable. The most disruptive part of our first visit was the 90-minute time limit. While no one verbally asked us to leave, the portable kiosk on our table blinked red with a message stating, "your 90-minute dining experience is over." This time limit was unreasonable for two reasons: First, we couldn't start eating until the grill was hot and the food was cooked, which took about 20 minutes. Second, we were reuniting with an old friend and wanted to enjoy our meal while catching up. The allotted 90 minutes didn't accommodate the necessary time for cooking, eating, and socializing.

Not the real Korean bbq place you want to go. We went to several Korean bbq places all over California, Las Vegas & New York but this place I will not even recommend to go to. The meat were dry & very expensive. Not even worth the price you pay.
