DTLA AYCE KBBQ: Experience Unlimited Korean Barbeque in the Heart of Chinatown

You can eat all kind of meat as you can. The meat is nice & delicious, korean style bbq was nice choice. Maybe next time I'll come again. Also service was good.

My wife brought me here for Valentine's Day. And I had a ball. OMG!!! Some of the best food I've eaten in a long time. I recommend this spot 100,000 times over. DTLA Korean BarB Que was major. I love the location, I love the seating and I love the area. I loved the employees. They were so nice and helpful. Jesus this place was awesome. I can't say it enough.

Everything was so good! They have great options, and everything is very high quality. Plus, love the outdoor vibes. The servers are so helpful, and the plates are a good size so you can try all the cuts of meat. Definitely will be back.

I was so excited to enjoy the DTLA AYCE KBBQ and it was my first time to visit this place without going to KTOWN! Honestly, I was attracted by its snacks through yelp pictures. Off course, its price is another attraction since it is only $26.95 for all day no matter weekend or weekdays. If I only want some good quality meat to enjoy at night, I might just take the $26.95 level. However, I took the highest-level $39.95 per person since it has more choices of meat including a limited order of rib eye steak and unlimited delicious snacks and sides. When we sat down, they provide us a house salad, macaroni and spicy tomato chip. They did not provide kimchi like other KBBQ no matter what level. I ordered fried calamari, rose ddukbokki, miso soup, seafood ramen, steamed egg and corn cheese as my snacks while I waited for the meat. Highly recommend ROSE DDUKBOKKI and CORN CHEESE especially the rose ddukbokki. It was hard to decried its sauce, um, like a rich, creamy spicy tomato sauce with butter. It contains sausage, rice cake, bacon and sheet jelly?(I guessed). Anyway, both my partner and me agreed it is delicious. Corn cheese is not only corn with cheese. We could felt that the restaurant add some favor inside and it is tasty. Other snacks are good too but not outstanding as rose ddukbokki. I was so sad that I could not order other snacks such as cup ramen fried rice, kimchi jjigae, Korean fried chicken bites etc.. I was too full to enjoy other snacks. For meat, I highly recommend its rib eye steak that was soft and juicy. Also, their beef belly series are outstanding. I could feel the fat melt in my mouth and the beef belly was fresh(sometimes in other AYCE KBBQ, I could feel the beef belly was not that fresh and the taste was odd). Pork jowl was thick cut!!! It was al dente and tender. Trust me, I thought it is better than pork belly (its price should be higher than pork belly in supermarket). Beef brisket was tasty too but I would mix it with beef belly since I thought it was not tender enough. Rib finger and LA galbi were common and not as my expectation. However, I highly suggest the owner of DTLA KBBQ add beef tongue into the menu. I was a little sad that the menu does not contain beef tongue for the highest-level. Its environment is special and the whole restaurant inside is hallway. Natural draft makes so little greasy dirt. I did not feel hot even without air conditioner. It has TVs in front of tables and I think it is a nice place to enjoy sport game night with friends. Its employees are nice but busy. Btw, street parking is $4 per hour, and nearby there is a parking lot shows $15. At the end of the meal, we can choose one ice cream per person as happy ending lol. All in all, I will come again but next time I might take the $26.95 level since I think this level is good enough to enjoy most of meat under a lower price.

We had the "Grand Opening Special" for dinner and at that price point, the menu choices and quality of the meal was definitely worth it. Service was a little awkward at times but nothing too bad and overall good. It was usually quick and we had enough food orders going on to keep the grill going for the most part. I'd definitely come back, particularly for the convenience of having a place like this of decent price and quality when in this part of town. I might try the regular menu next time for the added menu options.

“Wow. I can’t believe you guys ate all that”. A quote told to our party by a server. Outside of the server’s inappropriate comments, the entire atmosphere and environment was excellent. There was an abundance of variety in the menu. The food was amazing and seasoned well. I enjoyed the meal and the company. However, due to staff shortage and the attitude of the staff, I was unable to completely enjoy the evening as that last commentary made the group feel less inclined to return. The lack of courtesy and inclusion was a negative. That being said, come at your own time and pleasure.

Excellent food, outstanding service, and clear attention to detail from start to finish. The dishes were flavorful, well-prepared, and thoughtfully presented—everything tasted intentional. The service was professional, attentive, and perfectly paced. I rarely had to ask for anything; needs were anticipated, and the entire team—from servers to management—worked seamlessly together. This place does hospitality right. Consistent, polished, and genuinely worth returning to. Highly recommend.

The $27.00 menu is soooooooooooooooo worth the price. The quality of the meat to the taste of the sides dishes such as the corn cheese and steamed egg (these were not included in the price but still amazing. If you upgrade to their $40 menu these side items will be included) was freaking amazing. My new fav Korean bbq place.
