Kalbi BBQ offers an all you can eat Korean barbecue experience with a central grill, a wide selection of meats, sushi and sides, ordered on your phone and delivered by playful robot servers alongside attentive staff. The concept and atmosphere are repeatedly cited as its strengths, making it a popular spot for groups and casual outings, with fast service and a lively, modern vibe. Several reviews praise the freshness and marination of meats and the variety of dishes, including sushi options, while noting that some items can be pricey and a few flavors feel underwhelming or generic for the price. A recurring caveat is the variable value and occasional shortages or additional charges for certain items like desserts or per-item portions, plus after-tax tipping policies that some find unclear. Weekend and peak times can bring long waits unless a reservation is made, and the inside can feel very warm and noisy, with ventilation sometimes criticized for not handling the smoke well. Still, many diners say the all you can eat format and the fun service make Kalbi BBQ worth a return visit, especially when dining with friends or family.View restaurant profile
