Ryuu Asian BBQ

Cute atmosphere, but the food was a solid 3/10. We ordered the spicy bulgogi (had no spice whatsoever) and the LA Kalpi meat and they were both drenched in marinade to the point where you couldn’t even enjoy it. The grill was barely hot so it also took pretty long to cook. Lastly, I recommend you skip the ice cream. We ordered the green tea matcha and the strawberry flavors and they were not good. Do yourself a favor and go to Iron Age instead.

Some of the appetizers were good. The temperature of the stove was too low all the time even when we turn it to the max. So it took forever to cook the meat. When we were about to leave there were more costumers and the smoke was crazy due to lack of ventilation. The service definitely didn’t worth 20%. They rarely come ask and even when I ask them to come(cuz we were in a rush) they don’t. We had to order more rice and appetizers to get full cuz it took so long for meat.

They house an all you can eat Korean BBQ option and also an a la carte option. Depending on what you're looking for you might be looking at varying wait times. Although they do offer reservations, unlike some other Korean BBQ AYCE locations, so it can guarantee you a spot I thought I'd give them another chance to see if the first time was a fluke, but I was proven wrong. Service can be quite slow when doing the AYCE option so I highly recommend ordering a lot and often. Otherwise you'll be spending a good portion of your 90 minute limit waiting for your next order to come in. They do offer fountain drink free refills but be careful because it is only for Pepsi, diet Pepsi and sierra mist. If you order a diet coke you'll end up paying for another can if you want more during your meal. The atmosphere is minimalistic urban modern and izakaya vibes. Cocktails are roughly inexpensive 10-15 and beers can be in the 7 dollar range. I'd recommend the spicy tuna crunchy avocado as an appetizer.

This is my go to place and I’ve been a customer here for a year. I’ve always had good service , fast and prompt, and the servers were always great . However recently we brought my siblings who were from out of town to experience it for the first time and it was not up to expectations . Service seemed to be low staffed today which I understand however the newer servers didn’t seem too friendly as well and never smiled . The food took forever to come out and reorder to the point we were sitting for a while between meat grilling. The food was great however i was a not impressed by the service today.

Honestly one of the best experiences I've ever had in a small place like this. I'm surprised they haven't expanded yet. The meat for the smokeless grill they have you use is amazing and the family bbq bundle I got with my sibling and Partner was worth the price. The desserts were great too. The waitress for out table was very kind and even gave us an extra helping of miso soup. Definitely going back here again for a special event soon

Decent all you can eat. We ordered a lot and ate a lot. Def get a grill table that’s the funnest part. They charge $5 per dish you don’t finish but are great at pacing and getting out food. We took it easy and kept adding dishes and they came out quick. The only thing we weren’t fans of was the calamari. And the fan faves were spicy ribeye, spicy bugolgi, and the pork dumplings. Also great cocktails! Try the lychee (sans simple if you don’t like too sweet) cocktail or the white iver-san cocktail.
