Amazing Korean Restaurant! My partner and I stumbled upon this restaurant and decided to check it out after seeing the glowing reviews and they were absolutely spot on! The service was excellent and the staff were so friendly. I initially ordered the seafood tofu soup by mistake (I meant to get the beef soup), and they kindly changed it for me without any hassle. Super accommodating! Neat and tidy restaurant. Highly recommended for anyone looking for delicious Korean food with top-notch service. Thank you

We treated ourselves to the premium set, extra meat, and a refreshing cold noodle dish—totaling around $250 for three. While it’s on the pricier side, the quality and experience made it worthwhile. The side dishes were fresh, delicious, and generously refillable, almost giving us that *all-you-can-eat buffet* vibe. Everything was cooked to perfection, and we left fully satisfied. A fantastic spot for a special meal or when you’re craving top-notch Korean BBQ!

Korean bbq was good. You can take side dishes at the side dishes station, meat was tender and juicy. Fried chicken was very good. Seafood pancake was too thick and bulky, not crispy. Bean soup was too salty. The waitress cooked the meat well, was attentive and did a good job - she was so hardworking.

I went for a Sunday lunch catch-up with my best friend and wanted to pick the right place, and BBQ Lab didn’t disappoint. We had the lunch BBQ special recommended by the owner, featuring an incredible Wagyu oyster blade cut cooked over top-quality charcoal. The side dishes were fresh and delicious, perfectly complementing the meat. Service was outstanding, with staff making sure everything was just right. I can’t wait to go back with my family for a proper feast.

We celebrated my birthday here. The food is excellent. BBQ meet is fresh and delicious. Kimchi is authentic and tastes fresh. The fried chicken and pancakes are same as the flavor we’ve tasted in Seoul Korea. I would recommend this restaurant to friends.

Absolutely love this place! The quality of the meat is excellent – highly recommend the marinated wagyu beef set. It comes with three generous plates of meat plus a soup, which is just the right amount for a satisfying meal. The side dishes are the real highlight though – unlimited self-serve refills! I especially loved the marinated raw octopus and the fresh lettuce leaves, both of which you can go back for as much as you like. Such a treat! Will definitely be coming back again.
