One of our favorite places to go for Korean BBQ!! Really good quality meats & the staff are really nice & accommodating. Our go-to order is the "Beef Combination Plate" which has An Chang, Brisket, Kalbi, and Beef Tongue. It also comes with your choice of tofu soup (they have miso, kimchi, sundubo). It's perfect for two of us if we are really hungry! The banchan is also THE BEST and they change it up so you can try different things.

Best KBBQ on Oʻahu. Wait can be long but worth it! Always enjoy our food and the menu is fantastic.

Food was excellent, service was great, the only thing was the noise. It was a bit too loud for me but other than that it was a great experience! We got the meat combo & that was enoughfor 5 people! They also refilled the sides which were all delicious.

It's a beautiful space in a convenient location with parking nearby. We were luckily seated right away. The banchan sides were pretty good. Kim Chee, fish cake and seaweed was awesome. Did not care much for the potato salad which had big chuncks of apple. Smaller bits may have been a better approach. We were able to select their tofu soup as an accompaniment to our meal. I wasn't too excited as the flavors were kind of bland and way too mild on spice and heat. Lastly cook yourself is great as you get to control the doneness etc. However in the very dim corner of the room it is hard to see. Anyway we cooked our meat and soaked in sauces provided. The meat was definitely not to my liking no matter how much sauce I dipped in. It was worth a shot being so close to home but it was a big miss for being any kind of memorable.

Two local friends recommended Korea House to us for Korean BBQ and I wanted to support a local business rather than go to Gen Korean BBQ at Ala Moana which is an AYCE chain. Overall, Korea House is a solid option - a decent selection of meats and other items, although no grilled vegetable options. Service was prompt and efficient, if not particularly friendly. Parking is available in the lot next to the restaurant. They bring out the meat but do not cook it for you. Fried mandoo: 3/5 (too doughy and not as flavorful of a filling as I like) Soon du bu: 4/5 Short rib: 4/5 Pork belly: 3/5 (relatively thin cut compared to other places, I prefer salt as an accompaniment for pork belly and that was not an option) The banchan were good and they provided refills on items we enjoyed such as the kim chee, spicy cucumber, macaroni salad.

This place gets crowded for a reason. Great place to go with a group of friends on weekdays since youll probably wait a while if its on the weekends. Authentic Korean Yakiniku restaurant, the ambiance has it all. Quality of meats is better than the AYCE places, with the sides and portions personally id rather come here. Great food, service is hit or miss when busy but last visit it was excellent. Ordered the set for 2 along with a side order pork belly and intestines, comes with refillable banchan sides and either kimchee or miso soups. Gotta have the plastic bottle Hite beer and soju too??Waitress was attentive and changed our grill several times. 5 stars??Parking: Free parking next to the restaurant

It felt like I was taking my elderly father with me, but the server was smiling.Thank you so much, I had a pleasant meal. Even though my job dealing with people is difficult, I am grateful.Wheelchair accessibility: It was easy to use the Wilchair as they provided comfortable tables to wait in.

We came to try this place for the first time and we were pleasantly surprised. There were two parties waiting ahead of us when we arrived but we got seated fairly quickly so that was really nice. This place was super busy. There was a great variety of parties eating here.We felt it was a bit pricey but all of us pretty much enjoyed our meal and we left happy.We were recommended a meat plate to share and we also ordered Bulgogi and a seafood pancake.The servers were very attentive and they turned over tables really quickly. Even still we didn't feel rushed at all I would recommend coming here if you're in the area. I think it's definitely worth a try

We went to Hawaii after being told about it by a close friend of mine. I love Korean food in Hawaii and would like to eat Korean food every day. It's reasonably priced, delicious, and the staff are kind.

Had good telescopic retractable smoke chimneys which helped reduce the snake. BBQ meat very high quality and properly sliced. Service great and friendly. Bit pricey, but hey this is Honolulu.
Kabli, fish jun, and bibimbap were all very good. Went for a late weekday lunch around 1:00 PM. No wait, plenty of tables, service was fast and efficient.

This is a pretty good Korean BBQ spot in Oahu. They have all the basics of a Korean BBQ from Korea to include the banchan or side dishes. You still get the expierence of cooking it yourself on the table which means you get your food as fresh as possible. The service wasn't as fast or that friendly but it was still good enough to be considered Korean.
