Book Sae Tong - Menu

Thick Juicy. The server ladies are super nice and all the side dishes were great! Tong galbi and pork belly was thick and juicy. Chadol and bean sprouts were a great combo too.

K BBQ combines the best of asado, making it a top Korean BBQ destination in LA. The food is of the highest quality and incredibly delicious, offering a truly unique dining experience.

I visited a charming mom-and-pop restaurant in KTown with a group of friends. I have to say, the service was wonderful! The food was delicious and flavorful. I definitely plan to return. View menu

After more than 20 years of savoring Korean barbecue in Koreatown, this has become my favorite restaurant! If you want a truly reliable experience, this is the only place where the flavors are consistently excellent every single time you go. I’ve never been let down here—it's simply impossible! I'm planning to return for my birthday dinner, just as I did last year!

I heard from my uncle that they offer pico de gallo to accompany the meat, which intrigued me. I wasn't sure how it would taste, but it pairs surprisingly well with the kalbi. They also provide marinated onions on the side that complement all the different meats nicely. I would definitely recommend trying the chadol/brisket as well. It's a bit on the pricey side, but overall, the food is excellent.

통갈비 is exceptional, and the service is incredibly friendly! However, the restaurant is quite small, and the smoke tends to linger, making the air feel a bit stuffy. The air conditioning and fans don’t do a great job of maintaining comfort. Be sure to call at least an hour in advance to order the whole galbi, as it takes a while to prepare due to the slow BBQ method, which is what gives it such amazing flavor! View menu

This restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, but it's located in a less-than-desirable mall. The food was decent, with the kimchi being almost perfect in taste and quality. The Asado-style beef rib BBQ was unique, but it felt a bit overpriced. I was embarrassed by a server who commented on the tip I left, which was just under 15% of the total bill. She brought the bill over and asked, "Is this all you left for a tip?" It left a sour impression on me. I won’t be returning to this place again.

This Korean barbecue restaurant in Koreatown stands out from the rest. They are particularly famous for their tong galbi, which does require a bit of time to cook! The owner suggested that guests call ahead so they can start cooking it in advance, minimizing your wait time. What truly sets this place apart is the pico de gallo and homemade hot sauce they provide to accompany the meat! Here's a pro tip: mix the hot sauce into the pico de gallo and enjoy it with the meat—it’s absolutely delicious! The side dishes are quite impressive, and their dwenjangjjigae is also excellent. Overall, this is a fantastic spot for a unique KBBQ experience! Just a heads up: the prices are on the higher side, b...

Went here tonight with two friends and made two new friends. It was a wonderful experience because I am a Black girl with three Korean friends, that made the experience so authentic. I learned so much about the culture. My friends are regulars, so I even got to take shots with the owner, who is funny and an absolute sweetheart. She gave me a couple of bottles of beer for my birthday too. I already have a couple of bottles of Jinro in the fridge, so I'm good for a couple of bombs. If you are in the mood for some excellent Kbbq with great service, you should try Book Sae Tong. If it's a Friday night, I suggest you make reservations, it gets pretty crowded. I'm looking forward to going again. I... View menu
