What User doesn't like about Gaon Korean Bbq:
I?ve been here a few times and I really liked it but today was not good at all. I feel like the quality of the meat is cheaper. The brisket is super dry and the waiters barely came to our table. We got tired of waiting so we left. I?m disappointed because this was my fav kbbq place because it was so tasty but it?s not good anymore. Plus it?s also pretty pricey. View all feedback.
I have ordered take-out and the food is very well made and packaged carefully. Every component of a dish is included separately so when you get home, you can combine the elements for a fresh meal. When I asked a question via the restaurant email, my question was answered quickly and I was thanked for my support. There is a family atmosphere to the restaurant, and I am guessing it is family owned. The attention to detail on orders and how you are greeted when you arrive is very welcoming.
This is the place if you are hungry, have a huge appetite. The place to go if you like to sit at your table and cook your own meat. Ordering the 3 to 4 person meat menu is going to cost you about $30.00 a person not including beverages. You get salad with toppings, rice bowl, two souos to pick from, and glass noodles . Unless you made a reservation the day before it is likely you will wait about 20 minutes to get in. Service and the people working there were helpful and great. Food was also very good.
Great AYCE Korean BBQ. Service is good and the establishment is unpretentious. Decent selection of beer on tap as well as in bottles. Pitchers available. Best Korean BBQ in Pasadena.
Very nice restaurant, even better than some of Korean bbq places in the K-town! But, they should really change GRILLING PLATESㅡsome plates were nice, but some had scratches and the coating was quite peeled off so that the meat gets stick on. Once in Korea this became a huge issue among customers because grilling meat on a plate with scratches may produce harmful chemicals, and many restaurants became aware of the condition of their grilling plate. It would be better if they periodically replace old ones to new ones or change the current black-coated plates to those made of stainless steel. This is my reason for 5-1 stars. But -1 rather because I really like here. Apart from the grilling plate issue, it's an excellent place. The music is not too loud and just perfect. Both indoor and outdoor grilling sites are cozy. Good service and good meat quality. Reasonable price and good portion. Plus, the banchans, stone pot bibimbap, japchae, egg jjim, and the jjigaes are also very authentic and delicious. It's so fortunate that I have this nice restaurant near my place. :
Low price, high quality meat. And I really love their steamed egg. But I hope they can provide more kinds of condiments.
