Hwang’s Restaurant

I’m not usually a fan of all you can eat Korean BBQ, but I thought I’d try it out because this place had 4 stars.
In my opinion, this place only deserves two star because the meat quality was not that great (but what can you expect it is all you can eat).
The soybean paste soup was watery and salty.
Out of all the cold dishes, the glass noodles were pretty good.
They do have rice paper, which is a plus for me.
It was very easy to find parking.
The restaurant isn’t very busy, therefore the waitress/​waiters are very attentive.
I do not think I will be dinning here ever again.

party of 3, saturday night, 6pm
seated right away, but we were early. the place filled up by the time we left. small, not a lot of tables.
located in a strip mall with a large parking lot.
prompt service. servers were very nice and refilled a lot of things for us without us asking.
AYCE for $ 21.99 and has excellent value. menu options are not as varied as you would find in other places, but they have all the standard options, which were fresh, tasty and of good quality. ordered the brisket, black pork belly, short rib — all were flavorful. great sides.
great option in the south bay for AYCE KBBQ!

I love this place ! Their spicy pork is my super fave. Their customer service is outstanding so I’m a satisfied customer and definitely going to come back for more !

Overall great quality of meat. I was a little disappointed that their list of meats were so limited. I guess that’s my fault for not reading the reviews first. There was no wait but I think that’s because we came in on Christmas Eve. Service was alright as well. The ladies were nice and courteous. We sat on the other side of the door so I don’t think we were in a prime spot for great service.

One of the go to spots for my boyfriend and I! Service is great, one of the ladies in particular usually serves us and is always so sweet. Love that it’s open late and they have some bomb pork neck (boyfriend’s favorite).

I come here all the time with my husband. He happens to be out of town tonight and I really feel like having KBBQ. I don’t recognize the gal working tonight, which is very unusual. She told me they don’t serve party of 1 for KBBQ. The place is half empty. I know she is lying. I seen others by themselves. Wow. I been coming here for a few years now. Might not come back anymore. I am going to other KBBQ going forward. There are plenty in the area.

Worst place ever, worst customer service and false advertisement. I would give it 0 stars

Simply worth every penny out of your pocket.

Pros:
It’s all you can eat Korean bbq for $ 21.99 a person. They give you everything from beef tongue, chicken, rib, marinated beef, pork belly (10 different types of meats).
It also comes with side dishes: kimchi, cucumber kimchi, bean sprouts, fish cakes, potato salad, scallion pancakes, rice paper and dipping sauces, rice, salad.
Flavor is very good for the marinated dishes and they are not stingy with the amount of meat they bring.
Cons:
Décor is blah. pretty run down.
You have to ask for everything. some things don’t just come with it unless you know to ask for it, like rice paper or the bean sauce with garlic and jalapeño.
You want a mix meat, you can ask for that as well.

This is a decent little spot in the South Bay for AYCE KBBQ. Usually you have to go to K-​town for a decent place but this places quite decent. They have my favorites, beef brisket and bulgogi. Price is cheap for weekend dinner, around 20 bucks. A must try if you dont want to go to hipster Gen and wait 2 hours.

Came here again, because it was late (11pm) and almost every other Korean BBQ spot was closed. They have upped the price to $ 22/​person so it is a tad more expensive, but I still loved all of the food.
Even though we arrived late and were the last, and only, customers there, they never rushed us or made us feel uncomfortable. The same woman still works there and she is amazing. She helped us cut up and cook the chicken, and beef rib. She makes you feel like you’re in her house and she’s taking care of guests.
I will be back, meats are fresh and I love the sides.

So far the worst customer services i have ever had. The food was fine, but the waitress kept questioning the amount of food each time we order. She kept bringing 1 order although we asked for two. She would bring just enough for one person, although the plates of the others are empty too. Until that point, i decieded that i would leave tip, but i am never stepping a foot here again, but they couldn’t stop providing us with this terrible customer services.
They overcharged us about $ 200, while the amount was only about $ 75. She kept us waiting for about 15 min. While she kept charging us more and more thinking that cards were declined, although they weren’t.
And then after withdrawing money from my friends’ card and keeping us waiting, she asked us for tip, and i said NO for all the SHIT that had happened, then she said «NO TIP, YOU GUYS ATE ALOT OF FOOD», i mean who the hell says that. The WORST experience really.

It’s a hell of the worst customer service, the lady was stupid as f. Every time we order more, she bring us less quantity. Her look were like «you guys want moreeeee» what the fuck it is all you can eat. Plus the place was not busy and at the end when it came the time to pay, she over charged me almost twice the amount. When we were leaving without leaving tips because of that shity service. She said «no tip! You guys ate lot of food». Actually if you are looking for a comfortable and nice place with a good service don’t ever go there.

My favorite kbbq place in Gardena! I don’t mind paying the $ 20 for better brisket, beef ribs, bulgogi, chicken, pork belly and spicy pork. Their side dishes are always on point. I always ask extra brocolli, japchae, and Korean pancakes. Put the pancakes on grill and it’s sooooo addicting! They give you a good amount of meat during your first round so try not to order too too much. Ask for rice, the sweet and sour paste (?), and garlic.
Service is sometimes slow. If you’re in the room they don’t come around that often so just press the button. The tables are also really small and you sit on stools. Other than that this is my favorite go to kbbq back home!

This place is a quaint little kbbq AYCE place with decent parking. The $ 20 is a bit high for the selection of meat available. I do appreciate the grill is one of the more solid looking ones with an actual burner in the middle (versus ones around the area).
Restrooms are semi-​clean but easily accessible. There isn’t much room for putting the plate of food. You may get a seat where it has one of the supply carts on which to place the plates of raw meat.
The quality of meat is good. I ordered the normal stuff (bulgogi, brisket, chicken). Actually, the brisket doesn’t have too much fat on it and is super easy to cook and eat. I did enjoy the chicken. Whatever marinade they have been in makes it enjoyable to eat, moist and tasty.

This is definitely out go to for some AYCE Kbbq. Customer service is always on point and they already know what to start us off with once they see us. Once it’s on and poppin’ we don’t even need to ring the bell, they are always asking to refill our meats or bachan. We have pretty much tried all the surrounding kbbq spots and this is hands down our favorite.

EXCELLENT spot to get your Korean BBQ. Seating is quite fast, staff is nice and the location is clean. After looking over the money you can choose what meats you want. We usually order the all you can eat for a decent price. Boy oh boy is it delicious! I will never get tired of this place!

Came here with some college buddies for dinner the place is located in a plaza so parking is tight with all the other businesses. Tables are round so if you have a big group and the back area is full then you’ll be stuck with the round tables pushed together. The good thing is it’s 19.99 AYCE with choice of 10 different meats the food was good and tasty but this place is small so all the cooking stem from other tables by you can get smoky. The floors were greasy all over though you can’t see it but when walking it feels like your gonna slip. Maybe will be back if we are all in the area.

My friend and I just wanted kbbq but it was almost 11PM and thankfully this place is open until 1 in the morning.
When we arrived there wasn’t anyone inside but once we were seated and got our sides, more groups started to come in. The place isn’t that big so I expect it to be very crowded during evening hours. Around 11:00~Midnight on a Saturday night there were still 5 or so tables empty.
Meat was great! the brisket wasn’t too fatty (which I don’t care about but others do) the pork belly and beef tongue were good too!
Service was nice. I heard from a friend that her service wasn’t that great but she assumed it was because it was busy. But the lady and gentlemen walked around the whole place making sure we had meat or needed anything else.
definitely will come back here again if im craving some kbbq late at night

I forget why we were in the neighborhood but this place was open late and it’s a lot smaller than most Korean bbq places but none the less it’s still good!
The brisket cooks fast here. There’s hardly any fat. Cook it on the outer part of grill. We also got fresh rice paper which was still warm and very good!
The doorbell to ring for service is on the wall behind you. Also, since it’s small there’s not a wait on Saturday night at 11 p.m.
