KOU has a great selection of meat and sides, but they could use a bit more variety compared to other kbbqs. I wouldn't recommend the pork belly or galbi ribs, but the rest is delicious. Plus, they have lettuce wraps and their soju cocktails are amazing! Service is quick and fast, but sometimes forget to check on refills for drinks. The ambiance is what you would expect at a kbbq.

This Korean barbecue location is a fun experience for the whole family. The food is delicious, and you can order the all-you-can-eat option for a set price. What issue I experienced was that the service was a bit slow. There were moments where my water was empty and my boyfriend wanted more dishes, but the server was nowhere to be seen. The ambience is fun and would be excellent for a birthday or graduation celebrations.

Not much more to add because of the reviews that have said it all. I encourage any guests to get the unlimited option. It was so much food but scrumptious. The service was top notch and accommodating to a large table of 10 people with two grills.

I loveeeeeee this place. One the food a lot . 100 out of 10! I like the place how you can't really see others in some seats, Gives you that privacy. The service I give it a 7/10 at times it's 9/10. Just depends who helps you. But either way if I could I would come here every week hehe.

I didn't come in with too high expectations but left blown away. They have a trendy atmosphere for one, but it is also backed up with a great "all-you-can eat" experience and for what I believe is a good value. The only real catch is they for sure have you on a time limit, which if I recall is somewhere between 1 and 1.5 hours. For the pricing we had at the time it felt very worth it. That time limit is mainly to prevent the infamous buffet crawlers that just sit around all day working the "all-you-can-eat" system. No problem I'm mentally and physiologically well past those days haha! Everything else was great. Food quality, atmosphere, and even though you're cooking and seasoning your own meat, it is actually fun. Give it a go!

My go-to for KBBQ in SLC. Price is Okay. There are not many other options within the valley. Japche is great, and the galbi is a plenty. I've been here more than 30 times, and the service is the same. Not bad Not amazing, but I can't blame them. They are usually always busy.

My buddy dined here last week and based on his recommendation, today me and 6 of my friends did too. The restaurant doesn't take reservations but said we should not have any issue dining as a large group. Everyone is so polite here on the phone as well as when I arrived early to let them know we are a large group expecting 12. They set up our table for 12 and when I let them know we would be. A group of 7 they assumed us it was not an issue. Our group was brought to a long table with 4 burners. We ended up only using 2. Our food and drink orders were taken and within 3 minutes the meat started arriving and shortly after the sides came too. We ordered JapChae, mondu and Som (lettuce to wrap the meat with rice, kimchi, gochichong). The mondu was fried and delicious. The JapChae and Som were delicious too. We ate AYCE for over an hour and ordered several bottles of Shoju in flavors such as grape and strawberry, very good... If you're dining solo, on a date or with a group, this place can handle it. I will be coming here again.

Definitely some of the best Korean BBQ in the state! The check in process was easy, and the wait to be seated didn't take more than 20 minutes. The restaurant is pretty big and has a lot of seating options! Our server was pretty good for the most part. There were definitely times where he was more attentive and coming by than others but overall he was on top of it. Their crispy chicken was nice a crispy! Their spicy crispy chicken was super spicy and not for the faint! Their gyoza was pretty good but it wasn't hot. The noodles were flavorful and really enjoyable as well. Those were all the appetizers we started with. The beef bulgogi was the star of the night. It was super tender and so flavorful. It was delicious! The prime steak was also very good and was seasoned well. The chicken and pork options our waiter recommended weren't good and I couldn't take more than one bite. Would definitely come back for the bulgogi and the prime steak.
