We ordered the P1 and the meats where very tender. They cooked the meat for us which is always a really big help. The kimchi was masterful.
Excellent service, no smoky smell and the special beef is great. Efficient waiting times with their e- check in service. Parking attendants are really helpful. Certainly recommend this place!
From the moment you arrive, they offer valet parking which is a big plus. The authenticity of the Korean BBQ is unparalleled. I was delighted to have the staff assist in grilling the meat, ensuring it's cooked to perfection. The side dishes and salads are delectable, with the meat being incredibly tender and the sauces truly tantalizing. Dining outdoors adds to the wonderful ambiance. Their beef tongue is a must-try! It's an ideal place for a group to gather, enjoy a meal, and unwind with some drinks after work. Highly recommended! Amongst the eateries in Koreatown, Park BBQ stands out. I'll definitely be back, and I can't stress enough how attentive and warm the staff were.
I had high hopes for Park’s BBQ but honestly came out a bit disappointed especially since I normally love KBBQ restaurants. I’ll start by saying the service here is amazing, honestly one of the best. The entire staff had eagle eyes for water refills, helping to cook the meats, or directing people around. I only have good things to say about them!
In terms of food, the meat they served was delicious. The cuts were tender and juicy, well seasoned and filled us up. We got the Parks Combo which came with a sample of their most popular meats. In contrast to the meat though, I thought the side dishes were a bit underwhelming. Especially at the $130 price point for the combo which is expensive I thought the overall menu experience would be better.
LA has stiff competition for KBBQ and while I’m glad I tried Park’s, I think I prefer other spots like Quarters for the taste, experience, and price.

I am ok to pay 60 $ to try their bbq, but I was said, that minimum order is 2 dishes.
Because I was with wife and kid lol. By their policy if you are not alone you have to order more than 1 plates of meat. After server negotiated with manager they cooked this 60$ calbi in kitchen. We also ordered soup, and 2 beers. 116$. Bad experience, not recommend!

During a brief trip to LA recently, my friends who live in Koreatown recommended Park’s BBQ so we went as a group (two couples). The ambiance is typical Korean BBQ style with meat prepared at your table, but I do want to note that the ventilation was very good. The meat was some of the best I have ever had at a Korean BBQ restaurant anywhere in the world, and I have been to Seoul many times. The meat is tender and delectable, and the staff are very attentive and return frequently to adjust turn your meat and make sure that it is ready. I would also note that for a busy Korean BBQ restaurant, the service is much better than I have experienced in the past. The meal was ultimately so good that I am thinking about the next time I can go back to LA and dine there again. 5/5
Had a great experience at this famous kbbq place! Love the meat quality! P1 combo was enough for 3 of us. Side dishes were amazing as well! Our server Yerin was friendly and very attentive. Highly recommended!! :)
Went here with some friends. Service was fast and friendly. The food was absolutely amazing. I ate more than I should've but it was so good I couldn't stop. Highly recommend doing this in a large group and get lots of food. It's designed to share the food as a group. We went as 3 people and it was perfect.
