It was one of the best Korean BBQ restaurants I’ve ever been to. They don’t take reservations, but I’d say the table turnover rate was pretty high so the wait should not be too long even during the busiest hours. The interior was quite spacious unlike many other BBQ places I’be been. They also do the cooking for you, so it’s just right.

My first experience with Korean bbq did not disappoint. This restaurant is truly a hidden gem. Great hospitality and service, the food was grilled tableside, the meat so tender and delicious. I could not stop thinking about this place for a week after visiting. 10/10 would absolutely recommend.

This has become one of my favorite bbq restaurants because the meat quality here is so awesome. The meat always tender, fresh, sweet and always marinated well. A lot of meat option, a little pricey for sure but I honestly think it's worth it because all the options on their menu tastes so good. We tried all of their appetizers and their tteokbokki and fried dumplings is really good, they give out generous amount of side dishes too. Overall, great experience with this restaurant, they cook the meat in front of you so everyone can just enjoy.

I have been visiting Kim's Restaurant for the better part of 20 years. It's an amazing KBBQ experience where they cook the meat right in front of you. More importantly everything is delicious and the staff are so friendly! I highly suggest taking a friend or two and ordering the combo meal.

Great Service and Incredible food
Had the most incredible experience at Kim’s Korean BBQ with my family last month. It is THE best Korean BBQ, hands down! This was my second visit (both times absolutely delicious), but it was my first visit with a group that included experienced folks and BBQ newbies. And our amazing waitress, Sara (Umee), ensured we were delighted at every stage of the dining experience—-thoughtful and observant when some members needed different utensils, offered kind recommendations, and was warm and enthusiastic about everything being to our liking. Simply a wonderful human! Simply a wonderful place for Korean BBQ!

Food was great as always. Huge variety of meats and side dishes to enjoy. The waitress that grilled our meats was very friendly and had a great personality. I would definitely come back again!

Best KBBQ in Philly! Great quality meat, super generous banchan, and nice selection of drinks without a crazy mark-up. The charcoal gives everything a fantastic smokey flavor that you don't get with a plate grill, and the vents work well so you're never overwhelmed with smoke. There's usually a wait but it's never long, and you don't feel rushed while you're eating. I cannot overstate how great the banchan is, every vegetable item is so fresh and it really makes the meal!

came here for lunch with a decent sized group and the experience was amazing. all the food was great from the banchan (side dishes), the meats (various marinated beef cuts), the steamed egg, the soy bean past stew, and the cold noodles (which they served as a half spicy/half broth style). there was a huge assortment of banchan including different types of kimchi, and all of it was great. service was awesome as multiple servers constantly checked in and all the meat cooking is done by the staff. if you're looking for an authentic korean bbq restaurant with the full service, then this is the place. must go again.

Amazing. I got the large BBQ sampler with a variety of meats. Also the cold noodles. Came with stew and tons of banchan. Everything was so delicious. And all grilled over charcoal at the table by a very friendly chef. I have eaten K-BBQ in Seoul…this was every bit as good (if not better). Highly recommend!

If I could give more than 5 stars I really would. Where do I start from?? The food amazing! The service - impeccable! The wait staff - handsome 🤭 but also incredible attentive without being overbearing. Did I mention the food?????
Anyway look at the menu before arriving as it’s a bit pricey. My partner and I got the combo and plus tip spent about $80 each. I’m very happy and wish I could personally tip every individual at the establishment
