The food and the service are amazing. The male servers are 🔥 lit. Oppa central. Paid $80 for two people on a weekend. Delicious 🤤

★★★★★ 5.0 Sandy Chan · Dec 2025

This KBBQ spot has been our go-to ever since we moved to the area, and it never disappoints when it comes to flavor. The meat quality is really good, with so many options to choose from, and the sides are just as impressive. I love that they even have a buffet-style area for sides, so you can grab more of your favorites whenever you want. Service can vary depending on the day and how busy it is. On slower days, the servers are very helpful and attentive. On peak days, expect a wait sometimes 45 minutes to an hour and you may need to flag down a server when it’s packed. Still, that seems to come with the territory for a popular KBBQ spot. Overall, the food is consistently delicious, and I also love the restaurant’s name which can translate to “Cow County” or “Beef County.” Very fitting for

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Kate T · Feb 2026

While this location has very attentive service and decent meat, the restaurant has no proper ventilation. For a Korean barbecue spot, that should be a necessity. The entire restaurant is filled with smoke almost to the point of being difficult to breathe. Afterwards, my throat felt irritated from all the smoke I inhaled during my meal. This can’t be good for any of the customers or employees. While I would love to come back because I had a good meal and great service, coffee, the smoke deters me from doing so. Oo-Kook needs to fix this for everyone’s sake. Don’t want to be getting lung cancer any time soon!

★★★★★ 5.0 Fang Phattha · Oct 2023

AYCE was $37pp adults. It’s in an affordable range and there was good meat serving. This location has a snack bar for side dishes too (which doesn’t exist in the KTown location). We went on Sunday lunch time and it’s full of people. Most of the tables if not all were taken. The service was good despite many people. Trays were changed freqently and orders were processed fast.

★★★★☆ 4.0 YI YUN CAROL TSENG · Oct 2025

We were here for our celebration, about group of 8 people on weekday evening. So it’s not crowded, no need for reservations but if weekend you may need. They want you to have everyone arrive before seat in cuz they have time limit. The all you can eat meat were great, lots of selections and waiters are helpful. The Korean soju are the best. We had a great time.
