Great food and service! The staff is welcoming and fast at serving. They accommodate big parties and small ones.

I had a great time experiencing this style of food for the first time. Their sides are amazing as well as all their ingredients.

Good food great atmosphere. Have been a few times. Server was great. Maybe adding a few more meat options might be nice.

This was my first time here, and it was everything I hoped it would be! I went with some friends and we decided to get the barbecue instead of the hot pot. I do like that all the tables are equipped to do both though so you wouldn't have to wait for any specific tables to do either. The tables and booths were also very large so large groups can easily be accommodated! The menu was large, so the all you can eat part was definitely worth it. There was a really good variety of meats and veggies. The service was great! The staff was helpful with letting us know everything worked, and they were quick with bringing things out to us.

I absolutely love this place! It's huge with lots of seating areas and the setting is so nice. I haven't had to wait to be seated and I've gone here over 5 times already. I love being able to choose between Korean bbq or hotpot and you can also choose both, but there's a price difference. There are many meat and veggie options but I highly recommend beef bulgogi and the short ribs. They also have seafood options. Some places will cook it for you, but with this place you'll have to do it yourself. I usually have my dad or brother do it haha. There's also a sauce section for you to create your own. This place caters to big parties so it's a great place for families and friends.

I was so excited to try this place and we stopped in for their "All Day Dinner" on a Saturday for lunch. All this changes is that you can pick from their full menu of options which includes the dinner only things. It was $30 for all you can eat Korean BBQ and an extra $5 to add the hot pot. I think we will skip the hot pot next time but it was fun to try it out. The server was very helpful when explaining the process, giving us tips, and she even went and picked her favorite sauce from the sauce bar for us. She made recommendations on the menu which was very helpful. She routinely checked on us to swap the grill and to order more food, but we only needed to order one round. The Korean BBQ was fantastic and the meat was so flavorful. The calamari was the least favorite but the baby octopus was fun to try. The restaurant is massive and they have tons of employees. The meat was showing up to our table instantly when the server would submit the order on her iPad. Everything was very clean! We will definitely be back!

Wow this place was fun. We came on a Sunday near opening and had to wait until our entire party was there to be seated, but then we were able to be seated right away. Our server was super nice and didn't seem annoyed by our questions. We decided to do both hot pot and bbq (everyone has to agree and it's 5$ extra per person). You then have two hours and can eat whatever during that time, but you do have to pay for any food you don't eat--but that wasn't a problem for us (but good to know so you don't over order). They have a sauce bar that also has some small items like desserts. I do wish they had what typical pairs with what. My husbands family is original from Korea so I asked them but they didn't know what would be best to dip with all of them (like the peanut butter sauce). The portions are smaller so you can try a lot of things. The bulgogi they had was some of the best my husband and I have ever had (and we get/make bulgogi once a week so we have it often). Our waiter was super helpful with ordering too so definitely ask questions. We had a magnificent time here and will be returning. My sister in law said it's her new favorite place! Definitely worth checking out.

We had a great time! Excellent, attentive service and the food just kept coming. Everything we tried was delicious. I was impressed with how quickly we were sat and how large the restaurant was. We will definitely be back to try the kbbq. Pros: - huge, comfortable tables and booths - delicious food - great service Cons: - We didn't even see the side buffet until we were already too full. Excited to try it next time!

It's super exciting to have another Korean BBQ place in town - and this one also has hot pot! You cook the items at your own table for each of these styles. The Korean BBQ has a grill in the middle of the table and if you do hot pot, you get a small pot of flavored broth on a burner at the table that you cook your items in. It's all you can eat for both options, and you can either choose just Korean BBQ or hot pot, or get both for an additional $5 per person. Note that the whole table has to do the same thing, so if you're going with a group keep that in mind. Another thing to keep in mind is that this place is fairly new and very popular, so Nate and I did have quite a bit of a wait to be seated when we arrived around 6 pm on a Friday. They quoted us 20 minutes but it ended up being closer to 40 minutes. I could tell that people were frustrated with this, but they take your number and text you when your table is ready. Our server was really friendly and as attentive as possible with the entire restaurant being completely packed. You can order as much as you want at one time, and I recommend ordering a bunch of items all in your first round. As the restaurant got busier as we were there, wait times for additional orders got longer and longer. We still had plenty to eat within the two hour time limit, but I didn't feel that we quite got our money's worth. The total was about $100 for two people, which I think is actually reasonable for this dining experience, I just wish we could've ordered a few more things. They can charge you for any leftover food, so be aware of your appetite! There is a buffet with some fried appetizer items - spring rolls, chicken wings, fries, onion rings etc., as well as an expansive sauce bar where you can mix up a dipping sauce for your items. I highly recommend the items that are already marinated like the bulgogi and spicy fish if you're not interested in making a sauce mix. I picked a few sauces and combined them into something tasty, which was helpful for some of the plain meats and veggies that we got. Our favorite items were the short ribs, spicy beef bulgogi, spicy salmon and spicy fish, and the eggplant and mushrooms. They were out of a few items that we tried to order. The hot pot menu is huge and I'm excited to try that next. There were lots of families, groups celebrating birthdays, and couples all enjoying this fun and delicious experience, which was awesome to see. I'm looking forward to visiting King Pot again!
