This is a great Korean BBQ spot. The meat was a good quality and they would bring us 5 meats at a time. The sides were unlimited. They brought us a new grill often. The atmosphere was trendy and open. We will see definitely be going back.

I’ve been coming to Mr BBQ for almost 10 years now and honestly it’s still hands down one of my favorite spots for KBBQ. The all you can eat price is super fair for what you get and what you get is quality. The ribeye, beef tongue, and beef belly are my go-to selections every time and they’ve been consistently amazing for as long as I’ve been coming here. I would also recommend the filet, jowl, bone in and boneless short ribs, but honestly you can’t go wrong with whatever you pick. Bonus tip- you can get half orders on a lot of the meats so you can try as many as possible! The selection is great, the cuts are fresh, and somehow every time I visit the service feels like it’s gotten even better. Huge shoutout to Jesse who gave us some of the best service I’ve ever experienced at ANY restaurant. Our table never had to wait long for food and it came out fast, fresh, and exactly how we asked for it. Our banchan/sides and drinks were always filled. Jesse was on top of every little request, super friendly, and made the whole experience even better. Then at the end of the meal, you can get some ice cream! Mr BBQ delivers every single time. Great food, great vibes, and service that sets the bar high. Can’t recommend it enough. EDIT: 12/12 had dinner here again and we got Jesse as our server again. Still as awesome as before. Very helpful, always checked on us, and the quality is still amazing.

This spot is easily the finest Korean grill I’ve ever tried. The service was outstanding, the meat quality was exceptional, and the entire setting had an amazing, lively feel. Truly an unforgettable meal!

Austin Guthrie

The best Korean BBQ I've ever had. Loved the variety of the sides, the quality of the meats, as well as the cleanliness of the restaurant. The wait was long but very worth it. A well thought-out, pleasant dining experience fr. Our server Kyle was very attentive, and brought us a bunch of different sauces to try with the meats. Give Kyle a raise ASAP!!!

Rosemari Martinez

Some of the best meat in town! Everything is super tender and easy to enjoy. It is definitely worth the wait. It is best to get there early and find parking (it can be a challenge). The menu has a large array of meats, and nothing seemed to disappoint. There was so much flavor in everything I ate.

Our server Jesse was phenomenal! He was kind, quick, and went out of his way without us asking. He provided amazing service and made our experience worthwhile. The food and drinks were great too! Wait time was a little long (almost an hour on a Tuesday at 6:30) so get on the waitlist ahead of time for sure, but 10/10 still recommend coming here!

J
Jen Reilly

Service is amazing! Mr BBQ steak is always a staple, Wagyu,and we enjoy the pork butt as well! Parking can be hit or miss depending on the time you go. They have bottled beers and can soda options and everyone gets a small cup of ice cream as well! Clean, service is super friendly, and it’s a fun party like environment for celebrations.

I been coming here for years, even when I moved temporary that I couldn't visit often. Always a great time, great food. I want to give out a shout out to 2 amazing servers Jesse and Jose. They never leave us waiting, no matter how busy and chaotic it is they are on top of getting our next round of meats. I never have to look for them for anything because of how attentive they are. Always with a smile. They will leave you with a great experience everytime you visit.

This place is the best Korean BBQ in town, hands down. Go during the week to avoid the 2 hour wait. You'll thank me later.

Been coming to Mr. BBQ for over two years now, he administration has changed, but it is still a great place to eat. You get your money’s worth with a great selection of meats, even some seafood. Friendly service. Check it out.

Was my first time at a Korean BBQ, and what a delicious, fun meal. Service was quick, and Max was very helpful and always there to hook it up!! Definitely will be going again!!

S
Scott Quick

All you can eat for $25, $35 for the better quality meat options. There was nothing disappointing about the cheaper option!! There's likely going to be a wait, very busy place - even at 9pm in a Tuesday. Give it a shot!

Donna Guerrero

We had a great experience for our first time here. Our server Josh provided excellent service, and was on par. In addition, the birthday treats were awesome - cool vibe when it's brought out. Lots of birthdays tonight. Recommend based on this. Still a little busy for a weeknight.

Oscar Magana

This place is great. And while the lines may take long, they do offer tables to sit and play games. They have jenga, dominoes, and uno. Plus the food is good and waiters are attentive. Don't listen to the 1-star reviews.

Chris Lopiccolo

My favorite Korean ayce place in Orange County. Highly recommended. Prices went up a little due to prices of meat lately but still worth every penny. It was yummy. There is a wait, so go next door to Bigs for sports and beer. Will visit again.

Great food and great service! One of my favorite AYCE KBBQ places that I’ve been going for years. Jenny, the owner, is so sweet and goes above and beyond for her customers!

I had an amazing dining experience at Mr. KBBQ! The food was top-notch, with a wide variety of meats and sides that were all incredibly flavorful and fresh. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure our grill was always ready and our drinks were filled. The ambiance was lively and perfect for both small gatherings and big groups. The quality of the meat, paired with the excellent service, makes Mr. KBBQ a standout spot for Korean BBQ lovers. I’ll definitely be coming back!

J
Johnny Lee

Great quality meat and sides. The wait is long so come early. Service was good and they replaced our grills quite quickly. They also kept the meat orders flowing. Parking could be challenging with their small lot.

C
Chris Mariano

Never disappoints, and the queue of patrons tell the story. Had to wait 45 mins for a table on a Monday, and its worth it. Always a great place to eat korean bbq. Highly recommended.

L
Let me review for you!

Awesome atmosphere, customer service, and quality of meats served to order. Overall satisfaction was five stars! The ONLY negative note is the parking, horrible!

C
Cameron Sherry

I have so many good things to say about this place!! First, the quality of the meat is amazing. I studied abroad in Korea for half a year, and the pork belly comes pretty damn close in quality. The brisket and beef belly are to die for! Second, the service is top tier, especially for the price! Definitely come in for the lunch special if you can, it is an unbeatable value proposition. Lastly, the place is clean and well ventilated. They may seem like a small thing, but it’s a comfort that once you experience you can’t go without. I felt comfortable eating and staying as long as I needed to feel satisfied. All in all, this is now my favorite KBBQ restaurant in California :)

Christina Clifford

This is a fun and hip KBBQ restaurant. It was very yummy. They had drinks and cocktails. We had a very big group and they were able to accommodate (we made a reservation). Name tags were neon and electric signs they wore.

Second time here and loved it just as much as the first time. Fast friendly server's who will cut your meat for you. Good selection to try. I really like the squid.

J
Jessica Dinh

My new favorite AYCE KBBQ spot. We came at 6pm on a Thursday night, and the wait was about 35 minutes. By 6:30, the wait was about an hour. The service was the best I've ever received at a KBBQ restaurant. The servers were quick and friendly. I loved it! The server even brought out a kids tray for my son. So kid-friendly! The sides were all so good, and there were plenty of different sides. The meat was also some of the best that I've ever tried! I also enjoyed the small scoop of mint and chip ice cream at the end. It was the perfect way to end the meal. I'll be returning here often!

I enjoy our server Joe and his sense of urgency to his customers. I love his enthusiasm and helpful when he was changing the grill/ server our meats. I will come back again.

This place is by far the best Korean BBQ I have ever had. The service is amazing, the meat quality is outstanding and atmosphere is awesome! you can be 18 or 90 years old and have a great time here! The place is busy, and busy for a reason, it's quality. Even on weekdays be ready to wait at least 30min. Is it worth the wait? You damn right it is!

A.O. Malek

such an amazing place to dine in, everything is nice and delicious, the idea of cooking ur own food is amazing beside the hospitality and the help of the staff is remarkable, nice atmosphere, clean and cozy, and the smell of the food is fabulous, if u have a group of friends and u wanna find a place to have a dinner, this would be a great choice

Angel Olguin

Mr. BBQ is always awesome. The wait is usually a while but don't let that discourage you to try out this place. The food is sooooo damn good. Seriously it's good! And for the $$$ it's not bad at all! Service is on top of the world too!

My first time to visit this wonderful place. Great food and service! The diverse menu choices provide something for everyone. Our small group truly enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Would love to go again soon.

‘Follow the crowd’ is the most fitting phrase for this establishment. The waitlist is ALWAYS busy on the weekends and on weekday dinners. Be smart and check-in on Yelp for a place in line and be ready to wait an additional 30+ mins after checking in with the host. The place is bumpin, and parking is pretty limited for the amount of crowds this place gets. We went on a Saturday night, checked in at 430 and didn’t get seated until 645. We opted for the lower tier of PAYCE which ran for $32.99. The next tier up was $42.99 which would give you access to ordering ribeye, galbi and New York Strip. We’re definitely making this a quarterly spot for us and will surely try the next tier up on our next visit. I’ve been a fan of KBBQ for a while and this place is great .Our server was AMAZING, she was quick and attentive and explained everything properly. They’ve made it a diligent and easy process of switching the grill tops consistently throughout your meal. Food was bomb, we had 2 rounds and our favorites were the bulgogi, spicy garlic pork butt and the classic Mr BBQ. For the extras we tried their steamed egg and the sundubu. Would probably reorder the sundubu and leave the egg as it was pretty heavy. Also going to add in the fact that the table was full of a dozen banchans and they were all delicious. All of them were also refillable and were great accompaniments to the wide selection of meats! TOTALLY recommend.

David Sanchez

The best KBBQ spot in orange county. I love coming here. I don’t come here as often as I would love to. Because it’s always busy. Waiting time could be a long time. But it’s really good. I mean. The fact that you have to wait a long time. Says something about this place. And I highly recommend it.

This was our 1st time here & we had a good experience. Jose was our waiter & offered the best customer service. The food was good.

Ryant Takai

Came here for a friend's Birthday. For my first time coming here and I can say it was a great experience. The first round of Meats which included beef bulgogi, beef brisket, and pork ribs without the bones. Every bite was bursting with flavor and when you dip the bites into the salt or sweet soy sauce it compliments the beef with just the right touch. They had a ton of sides spread around the table with bowls of rice which you order through the waiters. I've been to other Korean BBQ restaurants and thus far, Mr. BBQ has been the best in flavors. Be prepared to wait 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours to get in. It's is extremely busy and popular as I discovered visiting for my first time. Service was on point, friendly, & accommodating. Clean and organized, they offer parking however during peak hours be prepared to park on the street where available. I will return again to enjoy more of their delicious BBQ!

Gardenia Bush

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE. Look guys, I know the wait is long, but I promise you it's worth it. The meats and seafood they serve are pretty good and all the sides you can order are so delicious! My favorite meats are the wagyu beef belly, wagyu short rib, beef bulgogi, and the sirloin. If I'm in the mood, I love getting the squid. My absolute favorite thing to get for sides (besides steamed rice and tofu soup) is the steamed egg. It's cooked perfectly every single time and idk why I love it so much but I do lol. Now let's talk about the service. I've never seen a KBBQ place so packed and poppin' but running so efficiently with the kindest staff on the planet. They're so attentive and they have their flow on LOCK. I gotta give it to them and how they keep up with it all. They also admit when things go wrong and do their best to make it right. I respect them so much for that. Still my top place for AYCE KBBQ and I'll keep coming back!

Eric Doral

Great place great food great prices what else is there to say but you should try it yourself and fall in love. We had the brisket sirloin wagyu marinated spicy pork belly pork spare ribs which were to die for my wife ordered some marinated chicken and squid which wasn’t mind blowing like the other dishes. The staff was super nice and accommodating I stated it was our first time here and they explained everything to me so I felt comfortable ordering. The salad was so good you guys. Also the GREEN TEA ICE CREAM at the end was a great way to end the meal. The next time we are in town we will be coming back.

We can never get enough of Mr Bbq! Again it was a pleasure having our favorite server Tommy who also was our server for my daughter's birthday! Always giving beyond amazing service. Always fun coming to Mr. Bbq, music is always going, fun to see all the birthday singing going around but the best and favorite part for me is the ice cream at the end of your dinner. Normally chocolate, vanilla are the go to but this time we were offered strawberry and rainbow sherbet. I decided to go with strawberry as it is my fav besides chocolate. Their rainbow sherbet did look pretty good too and I know that one is non dairy. Again, if you wanna have a great time with fam, friends or whoever, this is the place to come. Great conversations over cooking your meal and you deciding how cooked or burnt you want your meat lol. Mr. Bbq has the best service and servers! Come check them out!

Alan Duong

Our server was really attentive and helpful. Pretty standard kbbq place. Definitely recommend nookgansal (wagyu finger short ribs). Went around lunch time on a Saturday. It was about a 15-20 minute wait.

J
Jose Carrillo

Fun place to come in a group! Celebrated a friends birthday here and their birthday songs are fun to watch. Their meet selection is very good and their servers are very attentive. My only issue was parking but their is turnaround, you just have to wait and scope people out as they are leaving. Besides that minor hiccup, everything is awesome. Oh! Be prepared to wait 30 to 45 mins if you come during lunch or dinner rush.

K
Kami Crdva

The best place to eat. I really recommend the friendly family environment. The service was very impressive and the food is all you can eat but trust me it will fill you up. When In Anaheim, Ca stop by this restaurant. Mmmmmm makes my mouth water.

B
Ben Park

Excellent meats. The belly meat is incredible. I would say the meat is the best quality out of all the all you can eat Korean barbecues. It's not that smokey since they proactively change out the grills. The non-marinated meats are better than the marinated ones. It has a very chill atmosphere with mood lighting and interesting things like LED nametags for the waiting staff.

A
Ali Gilani

One of the better Korean BBQ. The food is top notch and the service was good. The only complaint is the long wait. 1 hour and 15 minute wait. They don't take reservations. A lot of empty tables while we were waiting. Don't be shy, ask for what you want a few times and don't be afraid to flag the waiter as they are walking by quickly.

Anthony Linarte (Ant)

I have to say I really liked this place very long wait times and music was a little to loud to talk but it was a Friday what I expected but in all it was very good me and my two other friends we served our food very fast the waiters were always tentative and watching when ever we ran out of something or ready to order the waiters were on it the two host were very nice the one with black hair and the brown and we had two waiter were very nice and quick on everything they did very well on the job it was a tall white man and a Asian man and the meat quality was good I can tell from some of the cuts they were prepped very well especially with the bulgogi so in all I would really recommend this place

Update 12/6/24 Had lunch on Sunday. 37.99 menu really works for us. If you are a Carnivore then this works great. The Wagyu beef brisket is great - fatty and meaty. The fatty beef brisket also good. Shortly ribs and liver also good. Skip the heavily marinated items as they contain a lot of sugar. When there is someone having a birthday, the music pumps up and birthday person gets a sparkly candle. Very fun. It's great for 37.99 Original post - A great place for ayce kkb if you are in the Fullerton area. Almost as good as Chubby Cattle and cheaper. Good selection and friendly service from Aaron.

S
Sierra Otto

Wonderful food, all you can eat lunch and dinner options. Great place to eat if you are very hungry. The music is a little loud, but it is a very nice place to go with a group. Also, a good place to go for birthdays, they have fun sparklers on the disserts especially for this.

Everything about this place is perfect! The meat is delicious, the service is spectacular, and they even offer dessert! The only thing that is missing is the dumplings. But, I'm never going back to Gen 🤭

Vensy Hill

The food here was absolutely worth the price! Try to avoid the weekends because the wait time will be 2 hours. You can't call to make reservations, but if you do want to wait around they will serve you alcohol in the lobby! Our server was great and allowed us to order half portions so we could try out a larger variety of items from the menu before being full!

I love this place!! Everytime I go I’m sat in Hannah’s section and she is amazing. So attentive and kind, she is truly the best. The food is out of this world and nothing compares. I am always coming back!

Great Korean bbq restaurant. Service is good and quality is too. Wait can be long, but they offer to check in through yelp within proximity

Solo Dining Available even on Sundays. $50 dinner with tip. So smart because as a solo diner I only had 4 1/2 plates of food. That's very inexpensive for the restaurant. I suggest more Korean BBQ go SOLO route because it's the same damn thing. I literally could have been in and out 30 mins.

Adrian Rico

Was driving around to eat fount this place and I can’t say a bad thing about it. We got seated right away. Our waitress was amazing she knew the menu really well knew what to recommend really thankful that she knew the menu. She was super professional, kind and knew what to recommend. Definitely a fan of this restaurant will be coming back. The food was great and everything tasted great can’t say enough definitely recommend this restaurant.

Alysa Nguyen

One of my go to restaurant for AYCE bbq! Lots of selection for meat. Service was impeccable, price is reasonable, and you get ice cream at the end. They have lots of meat selections, but my favorite is the beef belly, pork belly, brisket. I would skip on the squid and large intestines. Squid was too soft, in a bad way. Large intestine was so fatty, makes me feel the cholesterol levels rising. The parking lot is always packed so arrive early. The wait time is reasonable if you eat for lunch.

E
Erin Hamanaka

Incredible food! 3 hour wait 😩 but we’ll worth it, I tried the shrimp, mussels, clams, beef and of course the green tea ice cream. Food was fresh and flavorful, waiter was professional and helpful.

N
Nezam Newman

What a great experience! The staff are so professional and kind. They always go around making sure all of your food needs are met! We ordered from the Dinner Payce all-you-can-eat menu, and meat portions were generous for two people to enjoy. They have tons of different meats and stews to order from and they are all of high quality and taste. The meats’ marinades are excellent! They know how to do BBQ great! You should try this place out if you enjoy Korean BBQ! If you go on a weekend, expect a minimum 2-hour wait time, but do know that it is absolutely worth the wait!

This is probably the best BBQ place I've ever been to! The service is really good and the waiters/waitresses are really nice! And the food is the best we got the Bulgogi and Premium Marinated Choice Sirloin it was really good with the the Korean rice paper! They also had complimentary ice cream! Definitely will be going back!

Elbert Hugh Vincent Lim

This is a very delicious all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ place! The quality of the meats are much better than other competing restaurants too. We have a different one closer to home but we make sure to eat here instead. Staff is very nice too. A lot of people come here for their birthdays so it can get pretty loud.

I recently had an incredible dining experience at Mr BBQ in Fullerton and I cannot recommend it enough! This restaurant undeniably offers the best Korean BBQ in the area. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. What truly sets Mr BBQ apart is their exceptional service. The attentive and friendly staff went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of outstanding. They were knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations, ensuring that every bite was bursting with flavor. While at Mr BBQ, I tried their mouthwatering selection of meats, and each one was cooked to perfection. Whether it was the succulent marinated beef bulgogi or the perfectly grilled spicy pork belly, every dish was bursting with authentic Korean flavors. The variety of side dishes served alongside the barbecue provided the perfect balance of flavors and textures, truly enhancing the overall experience. Although there may be a wait at times, it is definitely worth it. The ambience of the restaurant and the fantastic food make waiting an enjoyable experience. It's clear that the chefs at Mr BBQ take immense pride in their craft, and it shows in every dish they serve. I highly recommend Mr BBQ to anyone seeking an incredible Korean BBQ experience. The combination of exceptional food and top-notch service creates an unforgettable dining experience. Don't miss out on this hidden gem in Fullerton!

Michael Tran (EL CapiTRAN)

I initially went here just for the jumbo scallops. The meats were just a plus, but a plus they were. The ribeye were full thick steaks and not the tiny ones you get from most Korean AYCEs. The marinated galbi and premium meats are worth the extra price BUT if you're not into the scallops you could save yourself some money and go for the cheaper menu but you'd be missing out on some good beef. The sides could be better. The kimchi wasn't that good. They could use some side seasonings like garlic and butter but other than that, I'd highly recommend trying this place out.

Amazing service! The food is great quality and throughout the other Kbbq I’ve been too, this is outstanding. Look for the waitress Claire she was so nice and friendly. (Ask her for tips on cooking onions).

Lily Becerra

Our first time here! Although food was delicious I have to start with our server, Tommy, Asian server, he was super! Friendly, fast, kept checking on us, & he was so busy! The food, amazing! Sides are delicious, and meats outstanding! Will definitely come back! Oh, and 2 ladies that were in the front were so friendly & helpful!! So glad we found this place!

I love Mr. BBQ! It’s all-around a great place to go for kbbq. The wait is can get pretty bad, so I would go early to put your name on the waitlist. The basic menu is honestly all you need. It has brisket, beef belly, thinly sliced pork belly, and what else do you need lol. If you want beef tongue, you can opt for the next level up. I also really like their soju cocktails. There are so many different fruity flavors to choose from and you can mix them as well. They’re handmade, but come sealed in a little can which is so cute. Our server was so nice and friendly as well. And the ice cream was really good.

J
Jeff Darcy

I have eaten here a good half dozen times so it’s time to leave a review. It can be a bit of a wait to get a table but for good reason. The meats are very good! They have a decent selection of beers and quite a few soju options, you might want to try the yogurt soju.

Rhonda Ruggio

We had a very good experience with the help of the manager Daniel who took care of a gift card issue and replaced all three gift cards we gave for Christmas presents were 3 $100 gift cards that had zero on them and Daniel made good on replacing all three with 3 $100 replacement cards for me plus a $100 card for me for the trouble so 5 stars for Daniel *️⃣*️⃣*️⃣*️⃣*️⃣

Fernando “FERNO”

I recently had an absolutely amazing experience at a Mr. BBQ and I just have to rave about it! Not only did they offer a huge selection of meats, but the quality was truly top-notch. The cuts were all incredibly fresh and the marinades were delicious - I simply couldn't get enough! It's rare to find such a variety of meats at the restaurant, so I was pleasantly surprised by how much they had to offer. But what truly elevated this dining experience to the next level was our waiter, Tommy. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and the different cuts of meat, he was also very personable and made our entire dining experience so enjoyable. He offered great suggestions and even helped us cook our meats to perfection at our table, which was a really fun and unique experience. Overall, I can't recommend this restaurant enough - the quality of the food and the exceptional service from Tommy truly made it one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time! But keep in mind if you have a large party you will have a long wait time we did 2 hours

Donald C.

Had the Mr BBQ dinner combo 2 which is recommended for 4-6 guests. Generous portions. Love all the different cuts of meat. Good atmosphere there had the Angels game on multiple screens. There were at least a couple of birthday celebrations. Recommend going on the wait list early on yelp it can be a couple hours wait depending on the night. We got on the waitlist at 4pm and was seated at 5:30pm.

Lucky Lovan

Ate here for the first time on Dec 26, 2025. The meat was some of the best quality I've ever had for an AYCE. Great cuts and selection with unlimited sides. Aidan was our server and wow was he amazing! He's the standard for how you should serve and treat your customers. Very attentive and super respectful. Made our table of 5 feel so comfortable and cared for. DO WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO TO KEEP HIM HERE FOREVER. The only complaint is a super long wait. Put our names in and had to wait for close to 3 hours in total after only being told it would be two hours on the waitlist. They don't take call in reservations. A lot of empty tables while we were waiting which was frustrating.

Had an amazing time here at Mr. BBQ. Food was good, service top notch, and a great atmosphere. Dylan our server performed service way beyond our expectations. Was on point, swift, and a pleasure to conversate with him. Probably one of the alltime best servers I've experienced. Wish the best for him in his career.

This KBBQ spot has quickly become my go-to. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is lively and energetic. From placing our order to receiving our food, everything felt quick and enjoyable. One of the servers, in particular, made the experience extra fun and made sure we had everything we needed. I’m definitely planning to return just for that great service.

1 hour wait for party of 12 but we were able to drink in the waiting area. Food was good. I was most impressed with the server, a young asian man. He was very friendly and quick with the orders. I had nearly forgotten what friendly customer service was like. Restaurant is very noisy which was mildly annoying but otherwise enjoyable experience.

I was looking for a yakiniku type of place, and this was the closest I could find that accepted 1 person. The atmosphere was loud due to lots of hard surfaces...I wore nouse-cancelling earbuds to keep it tolerable. The food was ok, they really should fire the cook. All joking aside, the ingredients seemed of decent quality, and a wide variety was present. The crunchy seaweed was oddly satisfying to eat, but I dont know why. I did not expect the ribeye to be full thickness. Often in this sort of place, they are sliced thinly, which better fits the style of cooking, and I would have preferred it to be thin. The beef tongue was really good though, and I highly recommend it. All in all, if I were to suggest changes, it would be to install some sort of sound absorbent materials in the building to tone the noise, and a wire cooking grill would have made it much better. Knowing the meat thickness ahead of time such as listing it on the menu would be helpful as well. My service was good, and the waiter professional and attentive. Kudos! Thank you for the meal!

It's a bit noisy on weekends, so I'll come back on a weekday to see how it is. The sauce isn't very tasty. (So far, the tastiest is at Road to Seul.) The meat is delicious.

I had a great time at Mr. BBQ today with my friend! We went around 1 PM and waited about 20–25 minutes, which wasn’t too bad. The customer service was quick and attentive. We got the premium menu, which included scallops, filet mignon, and beef tongue on top of the regular options. The food was amazing, and the meat quality was really good. I especially loved the brisket and beef tongue. The side dishes were okay, but overall, the experience was very positive. I will definitely come back again!

Good service. Again, GOOD SERVICE. They have the best beef tongue quality in town. However, the other kinds of meat are not spectacular. Good quality, but not stunning with the price they offer for premium combo. Their octopus quality is not as good as Gen (Tustin). One more good dish they have is small intestine, full of flavor.

Delicious food overall, but stay away from the steak, it's too chewy. Go crazy on the bulgogi and pork belly! So yummy! The service is generally good. Often, it's very busy. They ran out of fish cakes last time I was there.. These are small complaints though! I almost always have a great time at Mr. BBQ. :)

Great Korean BBq restaurant. Very clean, great service, tons of choices and also the priciest $$$. The only reason we will not be returning is because of the price other than that we loved the restaurant. #koreanbbq #googlelocalguide #womenwhoguide #localguide #koreanbbqfullerton #fullertonfood #mrbbq #mrbbqfullerton #koreanfood #korean

Great place for AYCE Korean BBQ restaurant. Bit pricey but every eatery is expensive nowadays. Cost: $40-$50/person + Tax + 18% auto tips.

Amelia Tran

Mitzah BBQ has really good food — the flavors are tasty and the quality is solid. The downside is the experience: it’s always very crowded, the waitlist can take a long time, and parking is a real challenge. The price also feels a bit steep. At nearly $50 per person for dinner, it doesn’t feel worth it for what you get. Overall, good food but the long wait, tough parking, and high price make it hard to fully recommend.

Good quality, fast service. Lots of meat options. You will be stuffed. Korean bbq at its finest, this place always has a wait. Their spicy bulgogi is prime. Unfortunately their sides are very good, which fill you up too much😮

Super good food... but is it worth the wait??? .... AYCE lunch for $25... but we opted for the prem dinner for the seafood. slightly dissapointed that galbi is only on the premium $45 menu. I thought the best thing was the squid off the dinner $35 menu. it's Weds. Dec. 28 at 12:00 noon.. and the wait time is 1 hour. which irks me when I can clearly see open tables (as in more than). I would definitely eat here again, but idk if I have the patience to wait for it, esp when I live in the SGV and I know there are so many great options out there that have no wait bc when you're hangry... you're hangry! again as we're leaving at 3:00 p.m. there a giant crowd at the door. and the servers look swamped, but the place is only seated at 60% capacity...

Had a great time with my friends here. Jessie was a fantastic server. The meats and sides were very fresh and plentiful. So many birthdays were happening while we were there.

The meat here is top notch, the wagyu was so tender and tasty. All the meat was well marinated and seasoned. I was enjoying my food when all of the sudden the music was blasting really loud. I felt I was at Bingo all over again. I couldn’t hear anything my son was saying.

Delfina Haller

I’ve been here a few times for Korean BBQ and it’s been consistently good overall. The food is flavorful and satisfying, and while I’ve had one or two visits where some of the side dishes weren’t as fresh, it didn’t take away from the experience. The waitstaff is friendly, attentive, and provides great customer service. I highly recommend this place and will definitely keep coming back.

Olyver

Food is good and the service is fantastic. The only thing that holds me back from a perfect score is how loud the music is. For the entire night they were blasting extremely loud club music over the speakers that in my opinion didn't really fit the vibes, it was annoying and my friend and I couldn't even hear each other when we're just right across the table.

Waiting time is a nightmare. We tried coming here due to reviews that we saw online searching for a BBQ near home. At first you saw it full thought it was because it was great service and people got in and out quick. My husband and I first experience we waited 1 hr for a table of two. You can tell people with big groups are seated first. Music is loud and when it’s someone’s bday they play a song loud and make a great entrance for bday celebration. The food was great for both my husband and I. We decided to invite our family. SECOND time we come and we waited 3HOURS! They did say sorry but 3hrs was very long. We sat in the waiting area they have inside lobby. Checked every 20 min. Nothing yet. Checked our line number on yelp. But they need to work on their waiting times. If a big group is not all there they need to sit down small groups.

Kristine Quintanar

First of all I want to say that our server was super nice and friendly. The restaurant was cute but our issue was with the food we got the lunch menu and the brisket and bulgogi meat was very tough and chewy. We got squid as well and the sauce that came with it was flavorless. Sadly the kimchi stew wasn’t good either it tasted like all tomato and no kimchi. Also the women’s restroom only had one working toilet had that one had no working lock. We will not be coming back.

Es un EXELENTE LUGAR muy recomendado pero su tiempo de espera es absurdo como ando tienen mesas disponibles y basias por el tiempo de espera que te asignan. Muy mal para su mercadotecnia

La comida muy rica, pero el tiempo de espera horrible mas 1, 2 ,3 horas de espera. Y para colmo no se puede reservar por anticipado. Me hido mas de 3 veces de ahi sin comer por las largar horas de espera. Termino comiendo en otro lado. 2 estrellas por 2 horas de espera!.

To be completely honest, I would never come back here if I had to pay out of my pocket. The main reason is that the quality and taste of the meat are far below expectations for the price. The side dishes were all bland and tasteless, and I could feel no care or effort put into the food. It felt disrespectful to the customers. The meat itself was simply not good at all -both in quality and flavor. To be frank, it was frustrating and disappointing. Maybe foreign customers might come for the price, but for me, there's absolutely no reason to return. Our server was nice.

Despite the restaurant having many empty tables, we were made to wait 1 hour and 30 minutes to be seated. After waiting for about an hour, we politely asked the lady at the front desk if we could be seated since we could clearly see multiple empty tables available. Her response was rude and dismissive. She said, “You have only waited an hour, you still have 30–40 minutes to wait,” as if our time didn’t matter at all. There was no explanation, no effort to accommodate us, and no basic courtesy. Making customers wait that long while tables sit empty is unacceptable, and the attitude at the front desk made the experience even worse. When they finely told us our table is ready....they told us the table is getting ready and made us wait and kept on seating people who came after us.

J
Joe Mama

the workers were rude and unhelpful when told my daughter was 10 years old as we were celebrating her birthday, she was denied and questioned which was ridiculous. Not to mention, the food was salty especially the spare rib and the brisket was mainly fat. And I could smell alcohol on the Asian worker with a more fuller build by the name of Tyler, it was ridiculous around my family as it wasn't the most pleasent and left a lingering smell which was unbelievable. Also they don't mention anything about a mandatory tip they charged $50 for a tip without warning and costed is a lot with the total being almost 300 for 4 people all you can eat. This place was not worth it, never again!

L
Long Shi

To be honest I want give 0 star for the good. We saw 2000+ good views on this restaurant so we go try it out, but trust me, this is the worst Korean BBQ you can have. We spend $48.99 and this is what they served, we ordered the premium WAGYU New York strip and premium WAGYU brisket, and you guys can see the pictures, those are 100% not Premium or WAGYU. I was wondering how much the store owner can make to lie to their customers those are good meet, I hope they can go “thirsty cow” to check out what you can eat when you spend $50 on Korean BBQ. So disappointed and never gonna go back again.Even tho,they have really good service, but the owner should stop lie to people.

# Mr. BBQ: Un Viaje Culinario en el Corazón de Fullerton

Fullerton, una joya vibrante en el condado de Orange, California, es una ciudad que pulsa con energía, historia y una notable diversidad cultural. Conocida por su encanto histórico, su floreciente escena artística y su ambiente universitario, Fullerton también se ha consolidado como un destino culinario de primer nivel. En este ecléctico panorama gastronómico, donde coexisten sabores de todo el mundo, un tipo de cocina ha capturado especialmente la imaginación y el paladar de locales y visitantes por igual: el Korean BBQ. En el corazón de esta experiencia culinaria coreana se encuentra Mr. BBQ, un establecimiento que promete no solo una comida, sino una inmersión en una tradición compartida y deliciosa.

Ubicado estratégicamente en 305 N State College Blvd, Fullerton, CA 92831, Mr. BBQ se sitúa en un corredor de actividad constante, cerca de la Universidad Estatal de California, Fullerton (CSUF), lo que lo convierte en un punto de encuentro ideal para estudiantes, familias y profesionales. Este artículo explorará la rica tapestry de la cultura del Korean BBQ, el contexto dinámico de Fullerton y cómo un lugar como Mr. BBQ encapsula lo mejor de ambos mundos, ofreciendo una experiencia gastronómica inolvidable.

Fullerton: Un Mosaico Cultural y Gastronómico

Para comprender plenamente el atractivo de Mr. BBQ, es esencial sumergirse en el entorno que lo alberga. Fullerton es una ciudad con una historia fascinante que se remonta a finales del siglo XIX, cuando fue fundada como un centro agrícola, principalmente para cítricos. Con el tiempo, evolucionó de una comunidad agrícola a un próspero centro suburbano, manteniendo al mismo tiempo un fuerte sentido de identidad y patrimonio. El centro de Fullerton, con sus edificios históricos bien conservados, sus boutiques independientes, galerías de arte y una animada vida nocturna, es un testimonio de su pasado y su presente dinámico.

La presencia de la Universidad Estatal de California, Fullerton, es un motor clave para el carácter de la ciudad. La universidad atrae a una población diversa de estudiantes y académicos de todo el mundo, infundiendo a Fullerton una energía juvenil y una perspectiva global. Esta diversidad se refleja directamente en la escena culinaria de la ciudad, que abarca desde restaurantes de alta cocina hasta acogedores cafés y, por supuesto, una impresionante variedad de cocinas internacionales. El corredor de State College Boulevard, donde se encuentra Mr. BBQ, es particularmente vibrante, sirviendo como una arteria principal que conecta varias partes de la ciudad y alberga una multitud de negocios, incluidos numerosos restaurantes que atienden a la diversa población de Fullerton.

La cultura gastronómica de Fullerton se caracteriza por su apertura a nuevas experiencias y su aprecio por la autenticidad. Los residentes y visitantes buscan no solo comida de calidad, sino también experiencias que les permitan explorar diferentes culturas a través del paladar. En este contexto, el Korean BBQ ha encontrado un hogar natural y una audiencia entusiasta. La combinación de una comida interactiva, sabores audaces y un ambiente comunitario lo convierte en una opción perfecta para una ciudad que valora la conexión y la celebración.

La Esencia del Korean BBQ: Una Experiencia Compartida

El Korean BBQ, o KBBQ como se le conoce popularmente, es mucho más que una simple comida; es un rito social, una forma de arte culinario y una celebración de la compañía. Sus raíces se hunden profundamente en la tradición gastronómica coreana, donde la carne a la parrilla ha sido un elemento básico durante siglos. Lo que distingue al KBBQ de otras formas de barbacoa es su enfoque en la cocción en la mesa, donde los comensales asumen el papel de chefs, asando sus propias selecciones de carne sobre una parrilla incorporada en el centro de la mesa.

Los Pilares del KBBQ: Carne, Banchan y Compañía

La piedra angular de cualquier experiencia KBBQ son las carnes. La variedad es vasta y tentadora, abarcando desde cortes clásicos hasta opciones más exóticas. Entre los más populares se encuentran:

  • Bulgogi: Carne de res finamente cortada y marinada en una dulce y sabrosa salsa a base de soja, ajo, sésamo y pera. Es un plato icónico que a menudo sirve como introducción al KBBQ para muchos recién llegados.
  • Galbi (o Kalbi): Costillas cortas de res, a menudo deshuesadas y marinadas de manera similar al bulgogi, pero con una textura más jugosa y un sabor más profundo debido al hueso. Suelen ser el plato estrella por su riqueza y su sabor inconfundible.
  • Samgyeopsal: Panceta de cerdo sin marinar, cortada en tiras gruesas. Se asa hasta que esté crujiente por fuera y jugosa por dentro, y a menudo se acompaña con sal y aceite de sésamo, o envuelta en hojas de lechuga con ajo y pasta de soja picante (ssamjang).
  • Chadolbaegi: Finas láminas de falda de res, que se cocinan rápidamente en la parrilla y son conocidas por su textura tierna y su sabor delicado.

Pero el KBBQ no estaría completo sin el ejército de "banchan", los pequeños platos de acompañamiento que se sirven sin cesar y que complementan perfectamente la carne a la parrilla. Estos pueden incluir kimchi (col fermentada picante), rábano encurtido, ensalada de patata, brotes de soja salteados, espinacas sazonadas y una miríada de otras delicias que varían de un restaurante a otro. Los banchan no solo añaden una explosión de sabor y textura a cada bocado, sino que también reflejan la filosofía coreana de una comida equilibrada y nutritiva.

El acto de cocinar juntos en la mesa fomenta la conversación y la camaradería. Es una experiencia inherentemente social, donde los amigos y la familia se reúnen para compartir historias, risas y, por supuesto, una comida memorable. La interacción con la parrilla, el volteo de la carne, la creación de los "ssam" (envolturas de lechuga con carne y acompañamientos) y el compartir los banchan, todo contribuye a una atmósfera vibrante y participativa.

El Ritual de la Parrilla y los Acompañamientos

El proceso de KBBQ es un arte en sí mismo. Una vez que las carnes se colocan en la parrilla, los comensales observan cómo se doran y se caramelizan, liberando aromas tentadores. El personal del restaurante a menudo ayuda a voltear la carne y a cortarla en trozos más pequeños con tijeras de cocina, asegurando una cocción uniforme y facilitando el consumo.

Mientras la carne se cocina, se preparan los "ssam". Una hoja de lechuga (o a veces de perilla) se convierte en la base. Sobre ella, se coloca un trozo de carne recién asada, quizás un poco de arroz, un diente de ajo crudo o asado, un trozo de kimchi y una pizca de ssamjang. Esta pequeña envoltura se come de un solo bocado, creando una sinfonía de sabores y texturas: lo crujiente de la lechuga, la jugosidad de la carne, el picante del kimchi y la profundidad umami del ssamjang. Es una experiencia personalizada y deliciosamente caótica.

Para acompañar la comida, las bebidas también juegan un papel crucial. El soju, un licor coreano claro y ligeramente dulce, es una elección popular, a menudo compartido en pequeños vasos para brindar. La cerveza coreana, como Hite o Cass, también es común, y la combinación de soju y cerveza (conocida como "somaek") es una bebida social muy extendida. Estas bebidas no solo complementan los sabores de la carne, sino que también refuerzan el aspecto social de la comida.

Mr. BBQ en el Contexto de Fullerton: Un Punto de Encuentro Culinario

En este vibrante escenario del Korean BBQ, Mr. BBQ se erige como un destino destacado en Fullerton. Su ubicación en 305 N State College Blvd lo posiciona idealmente para atraer a una clientela diversa, que incluye a los estudiantes y profesores de CSUF, las familias locales en busca de una experiencia gastronómica divertida y sabrosa, y los profesionales que buscan una opción de cena animada.

La proximidad a un campus universitario es un factor significativo. Los estudiantes suelen tener un paladar aventurero y aprecian las opciones de comida que son tanto deliciosas como asequibles, especialmente si ofrecen una experiencia social. El formato de "all-you-can-eat" (AYCE), común en muchos restaurantes KBBQ, es particularmente atractivo para este demográfico, ya que permite a los comensales probar una amplia variedad de carnes y banchan a un precio fijo, lo que lo convierte en una excelente opción para reuniones de grupo.

Mr. BBQ, como otros establecimientos exitosos de KBBQ, probablemente se esfuerza por ofrecer un equilibrio entre autenticidad y accesibilidad. Esto significa mantener los sabores tradicionales coreanos mientras se asegura que la experiencia sea cómoda y acogedora para aquellos que quizás no estén familiarizados con la cocina. La calidad de la carne, la frescura de los banchan y la eficiencia del servicio son elementos clave que definen la reputación de un restaurante KBBQ. La capacidad de un lugar para manejar el bullicio y la demanda de la parrilla en la mesa, manteniendo un ambiente limpio y agradable, es fundamental para su éxito.

La gastronomía asiática en el sur de California es increíblemente rica y diversa, y el KBBQ ocupa un lugar prominente dentro de ella. Ciudades como Fullerton, con su demografía multicultural, son caldos de cultivo perfectos para la proliferación de restaurantes que ofrecen estas experiencias culinarias. Mr. BBQ no es solo un restaurante, sino una parte integral de esta rica tradición, contribuyendo a la identidad gastronómica de Fullerton.

Más Allá de la Parrilla: La Atmósfera y el Servicio

Un restaurante KBBQ exitoso, como Mr. BBQ, no solo se define por la calidad de su comida, sino también por la atmósfera que crea y el servicio que proporciona. El ambiente típico de un KBBQ es a menudo animado y bullicioso, lleno del chisporroteo de la carne en la parrilla, el tintineo de los vasos y las risas de los comensales. La decoración puede variar desde lo moderno y elegante hasta lo más tradicional y rústico, pero el objetivo común es crear un espacio que fomente la relajación y la interacción social.

El personal juega un papel crucial en la experiencia KBBQ. Desde el momento en que los comensales son recibidos, hasta que se les guía a través del menú, se les sirve la carne y los banchan, y se les asiste con la parrilla, un servicio atento y eficiente es primordial. Dada la naturaleza interactiva de la comida, el personal a menudo ayuda a los comensales a gestionar la cocción de la carne, cambiar las parrillas sucias y reponer los banchan, asegurando que la experiencia sea fluida y agradable. La capacidad de un equipo para trabajar rápidamente y con una sonrisa, incluso en momentos de gran afluencia, es un sello distintivo de un buen establecimiento de KBBQ.

La limpieza es otro factor importante, especialmente en un entorno donde se manejan carnes crudas y grasas. Un restaurante KBBQ bien gestionado mantendrá altos estándares de higiene, tanto en la cocina como en las áreas de comedor, para garantizar la seguridad y el confort de sus clientes.

Consejos para el Comensal de KBBQ (General)

Para aquellos que son nuevos en el mundo del Korean BBQ o desean maximizar su experiencia en un lugar como Mr. BBQ, aquí hay algunos consejos generales:

  1. Elija sabiamente el menú: Muchos KBBQ ofrecen opciones de "All-You-Can-Eat" (AYCE) o a la carta. Si es su primera vez o tiene un apetito voraz, el AYCE es una excelente manera de probar una variedad de carnes y platos. Si prefiere menos cantidad o cortes específicos, la opción a la carta podría ser mejor.
  2. No tenga miedo de preguntar: El personal está ahí para ayudar. Si no está seguro de cómo cocinar una carne específica, cómo hacer un "ssam" o qué banchan probar, pida consejo.
  3. Experimente con los "ssam": No hay una forma "correcta" de hacer un ssam. Pruebe diferentes combinaciones de carne, arroz, ajo, kimchi y ssamjang hasta que encuentre su mezcla favorita.
  4. Hidrátese: La parrilla puede generar calor. Manténgase hidratado con agua, o pruebe las bebidas tradicionales coreanas como soju o cerveza.
  5. Vístase cómodamente: Es probable que salga oliendo un poco a barbacoa, así que elija ropa cómoda que no le importe que absorba algunos aromas.
  6. Vaya en grupo: El KBBQ es una experiencia social. Cuantas más personas, más diversión y más platos para compartir.
  7. Explore los banchan: No subestime el poder de los acompañamientos. Son esenciales para equilibrar los sabores de la carne y añadir variedad a cada bocado.

Fullerton y su Oferta Complementaria

Una visita a Mr. BBQ en Fullerton es a menudo solo una parte de una experiencia más amplia en la ciudad. Antes o después de disfrutar de una abundante comida, los visitantes pueden explorar las muchas atracciones de Fullerton. El histórico centro de Fullerton ofrece boutiques únicas, galerías de arte y una animada vida nocturna con bares y locales de música en vivo. Para aquellos que buscan un respiro en la naturaleza, el Fullerton Arboretum, un jardín botánico de 26 acres en el campus de CSUF, ofrece senderos tranquilos y una impresionante colección de plantas. Hillcrest Park, con sus vistas panorámicas y áreas de pícnic, es otro lugar popular para relajarse.

La ciudad también es un centro para las artes, con el Fullerton Museum Center que presenta exposiciones sobre historia local, arte y cultura. Para los amantes del teatro, el Fullerton College y la CSUF albergan producciones de alta calidad durante todo el año. La ubicación de Fullerton en el condado de Orange también significa que está convenientemente cerca de otras atracciones importantes del sur de California, como Disneyland, las playas de la costa y las tiendas de clase mundial.

Conclusión
