Brave Korean Barbecue: Reviews & Ratings
One of my favorite kbbq places in the area! You get a great amount of food for the all you can eat price. My absolute favorite is the ramen! I also love how you get free ice cream at the end included with your mail. This place can get busy so when it’s packed the wait times get really long! In general sometimes the staff takes long to come around to you so you have to fight to wave them down. Doesn’t take away from the great food flavor.
We really enjoy going to brave for a special occasions. The meat selection even with the lower tier is still very good! I wish they would just provide salt shakers instead of having it off to the side. A lot of the marinades and sauces are very sweet based and need to be balanced out with some salt which you have to scoop and sprinkle on with your fingers. Such a nitpick but it’s my biggest pet peeve when I go! The last time we went it was so hard to get the attention of our server. We went on a Friday night and it didn’t seem very busy, but they left tables dirty for at least an hour next to us.
Came on a Wednesday night and the lot was full. The great thing is the huge portions but they don't warn you so I got a double order thinking it would be small and it was a pile. Be mindful if you want to try many things. The corn was good and the shrimp tempura was the best thing ever. Their late night happy hour is a steal. And service was good. Only thing is the limitations on sauces. There is no buffet style at all for anything not even for sauces and they only offer ponzu (sweet), garlic butter, a spicy sauce, siracha and salt. Beef roll meat was pretty chewy to the point my mouth hurt.Lamb and Beef Bulgolgi were my favorites! Drinks are charged per serving too which was sad. I'd still come back because it was nice and simple but if you want a sauce variety I wouldn't reccommend. Not my favorite but it was good! They let you pick an ice cream on the way out which was nice.
Very good experience. The waitresses are SUPER nice, the restaurant deserves a 5/5 just because of them. The food was a lot better than some of the other korean BBQs I've been to. Prices are reasonable considering the amount of choices you get. Definitely recommend coming here
I eat here regularly cause it’s so close and they have a good priced lunch and happy hour menu. They also have more appetizer and side options then other kbbq places I’ve been to. Beef belly and chuck roll is my favorite but everything is good. And the servers are really nice.
Worth the price! Food has always been good, and we’ve been coming here since they first opened. Lunch prices are especially worth it. Depending on your server, service can be hit or miss. Flavors are great. Ask for their daily special - many times you can get a NY steak or another nice cut as part of your regular AYCE meal. Meat has always been fresh.
10/10.. absolutely amazing. My daughter took me here for my birthday and this place is so incredible. You cook the meat yourself! The Brisket, spicy pork, chicken... so good.. every single thing was the best. Our waitress Gabby was AMAZING! Couldn't have had a better experience.
This is the most authentic and delicious Korean barbecue that I have tried in the whole area. I’ve been to South Korea several times and this beats any barbecue I had there! It is absolutely FANTASTIC! From the first interactions and feeling the incredible energy there, to each tasty bite, we will definitely be returning for years to come. We found out that the are opening a karaoke room next-door and we are beyond excited and looking forward to having this as an option to complete the night/experience as well! Thank you for the positive interactions and delicious food.
