TGI Korean BBQ

Great Korean BBQ and Unlimited Lobster tails. We had a reservation and the place was packed. They have indoor and outdoor seating option. Outdoor would have been an extra 30 min wait. With a reservation see reservation we were seated quickly. The food quality was good and the service was great. I read reviews ahead of time, so I knew you can only order 3 meats at a time and you need to keep ordering so there isnt a big delay between ordering, cooking, and eating. This place only has an overall vent, not a vent for each grill. Anyways food was good. It's a little pricey with 18% gratuity built into ticket price. However, the one complaint that makes it difficult to come back is the lack of parking. Good luck trying to find it.

Originally posted this last week, but realized it went up on my private account by mistake—took it down and re-shared here to make sure it’s on the right one! I came here to celebrate my birthday, and I honestly couldn’t have picked a better spot. The staff went above and beyond—they even decorated for the occasion, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the night feel extra special. The food was amazing—everything was super fresh, well-marinated, and high quality. My favorites were the beef tongue and beef rib. The tongue was tender and flavorful, and the beef rib was a standout since it’s not something you usually see at KBBQ spots. They also offer Korean street food and other fun extras that really elevated the meal. Service was top-notch, too. Our server was super attentive, kept our grill clean, and made sure we had everything we needed. Major bonus: they have valet parking, so you don’t have to deal with the usual Koreatown parking hassle. If you’re looking for a KBBQ place with great food, excellent service, and stress-free parking, TGI KBBQ is definitely worth checking out. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

If your dad likes double dipping unlimited steamed lobster tails, grilling up rib eye, a giant beef rib, and Wagyu beef belly, all the while enjoying some Korean fusion side dishes, I've got just the spot for you. Welcome to TGI Korean Barbecue in the heart of Korea Town, Los Angeles. We started off the meal with the most popular giant beef rib cooked to a perfect medium, followed up by the marinated LA Galbi. Then hit a trifecta with the prime sirloin. Looking around the table, there was only four types of banchan. But you know what? We didn't come here for that. We came here for the unlimited steamed lobster tails. Firm, tender, and buttery, just the way dad likes it. The corn cheese beef rib soup japchae, and the steamed egg soup was perfect between meats. Another all you can eat recommendation is this tender Wagyu beef belly, not to be missed by this thick cut of ribeye. and that succulent beef bulgogi goes perfect with that cheese dip. It goes great with some grilled pineapple too. Service was fast and friendly. Overall one of the best KBBQ experiences I’ve had in ktown.

The food is good. Got the Luxury menu with the unlimited lobster. The lobster is good but it was a bit salty. The more you order the saltier it gets. I like that they give you smaller portions vs big portions so you can try a little bit of every thing without wasting food. The flavors and quality was good.

We went at around 2pm. There was no line. That’s a good thing. K-town is well known for hellish parking, we initially drove around then we realized they have customer parking for free - no valet until 4pm. You have to tandem park, but it’s free- a big plus! I came here for lobster obviously. They’ll serve it 2 at a time and take 10+ minutes to prep it each time. I was only able to get to 5th round before I gave up because I was already so full I was seriously expecting the restaurant to play games with the lobster ayce .. they were pretty reasonable. It is worth it. The other items on the menu were pretty high quality. A big slab of ribeye. Bulgogi was very good. Tiger prawn. Wagyu pork belly. We had scallops - it was not large pieces of scallops, but it was decent. I am satisfied overall. I came at lean hour and it was perfect.

Not bad and we did get our money's worth from the lobster tails. Service felt a little slow. All in all, not a bad place to get ayce kbbq.
