Dinner in Moiliili, Honolulu, Hawaii... Our first choice of restaurant wasn't available. We quickly switched gears and met at Yakiniku Korea House because we all hadn't been there before and had heard good things about it. Specifically, Kathy H. said that her patients recommended this restaurant to her! Located on the right side of Beretania Street, across from Longs Drugs Store, we all drive past this establishment many times. It has its own parking lot, great air-conditioning, convenient restroom, good ventilation, efficient service, and delicious food! I had called about an hour before we met to make a reservation. When I got there, our table was set and ready to go! We looked at the extensive menu - there were so many choices - especially the Lunch Specials!!! We all decided to get our own meals and skip the cooking. I ordered Cold Noodle Soup... it was delicious and refreshing. I actually added a bit more vinegar to the broth. I liked the shave ice in it, the half of a hard-boiled egg, pickled veggies, and slice of apple. We're all looking forward to returning!

Located on Beretania Street, across Longs Mo'ili'ili. Two private parking lots, with lots of stalls. Walk in's welcome.12:30pm on a Sunday is really nice time. Not busy at all. The atmosphere is cozy. Lighting is on the dim side, but ok. The tables are set for cooking your own food. The temperature is on the lower side, so bring a jacket or wear long sleeves. The food is very tasty. Portions are nice. Banchan offered are very nice and tasty. Because it wasn't busy, we were well cared for. This restaurant is definitely my go to for great Korean food!

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.

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 yakiniku korea house is amazing. Food is really good here , good for hang over too. lol Staff here are very fast and friendly. The inside of this restaurant is pretty big , they have tables that can fit up to 15 people. Always remember to make reservations.

My brother insisted this was the spot the Korean students from Korea go to, so we checked it out for lunch. We ordered the combo kbbq set, which says it feed 2 people, but was more than enough for 4. It came with all beef, some onion, garlic, and a soup of your choice. We ordered the kimchi soup, which arrived boiling. It also comes with 2 bowls of rice. We also ordered the yukhoe, which is a beef tartare. It's mixed with apples and sesame oil, and is a little frozen. Like any classic Korean restaurant, we got a lot of banchan delivered to us, including 2 types of kimchi, potatoes, seaweed, and a salad. There is also fish cake but I had to specially ask for it. You can refill it as often as you like. The meat was generally pretty good quality -- I will say a few slices of the thin brisket had some chewy bits, but it was mostly on the better side. They changed our grill for us and refilled our complimentary hot teas and iced waters. There are gendered restrooms and lots of parking outside in their outdoor lot. Great food and experience overall.

We had a fantastic experience. Don't let the poor reviews steer you away. I think you just have to come at the right time and experience everything yourself. We went for late lunch around 2pm and it was empty. Service was quick and we didn't encounter any issues. In fact, I told my husband about some of the reviews the restaurant got on Yelp and he said service here was better than Gens. It's not AYCE, but we left feeling full as if it were. My husband also said the quality was great! The short rib was so tender that he could even pull the meat apart with a spoon for our kid. For 2 adults, 1 young adult, & 1 child, the food portion we got was a lot. Very fulfilling. My husband said we could've gone without one of the extra dishes since we were so full towards the end. What we ORDERED: Ala Cart. (1) Pork Belly, (1) Short Rib, (1) Brisket, (1) Seafood Pancake, (1) Seafood Tofu Soup. Overall I think it was definitely worth the price. You pay for quality and quantity. The side dishes are so flavorful and delicious. Way better than other places I've experienced. It was worth the drive from the west side. Plus there were tons of parking. Definitely a must.
