Great food. Too bad they closed down already in lieu of new management. New price: $ 9.99 only for weekdays; and it’s now $ 16.99(and $ 19.99 possibly including seafood) for weekends. ***WARNING*** Feedable has closed it seems; new management. Price changed.

New pricing is 9.99 m-f all day, and sat-sun lunch. They withhold tendon, seafood, Kali and other stuff unless you want to pay 16.99. This place has definitely cut corners from what is use to be. This time I just walked out after checking out the new special. Unless they return to better cuts of meat and seafood, there are tons of other places in RH. Bye-bye feedables.

I have been to this place a few years ago and it was much better than my recent visit. The quality of food is way under par and the already prepared food was cold when it should have been warm. The meats were old looking and not much choices available. The salad bar looked wilted and old as well. Walking around the buffet area and looking at the food doesn’t make you want to eat it. The booths and floors are really dirty, which makes your meal not enjoyable as well. The price wasn’t that bad at $ 17 for dinner, but I rather not pay that much for crappy quality kbbq. I suggest going to another kbbq place in the area. Yoshinoya in the same plaza would probably be more fulfilling than this place. I will not come back again and I wouldn’t recommend to others.

My friends and I are supposed to go to Korea House( ), but the line was really long and my friends couldn’t wait for it — so we decided to come to this random plaza and this old man at the front entrance of this store was like«oh we got the best deal, come in and eat» — the moment we stepped into this store, man what a horrible mistake we made … — Parking: Free parking at the plaza, it’s not that difficult to find a free parking space — Price: It was 17 something for all you can eat Korean BBQ — Environment: Some of painting on the wall got chipped off(that tells u this owner didn’t spend the time taking care of this restaurant) — oh instead of changing your grill, the server took newspaper and wiped oil to the side … WOW — Food: 1st of all, all of raw meats are so bloody — so it’s definitely not visually pleasant. For some reason, oil on the grill kept splashing towards to my direction — it was pretty painful –_– — Rating: Worst Korean BBQ experience ever, 1 star — period

Came on a Friday night, like 7 – 8. There were barely any people. I guess it’s understandable because of all the bad reviews. Regardless, we didn’t have another choice because a famished guy in our party insisted. Alot of people complained in their reviews about service, but surprisingly, our server was very attentive and extremely nice. She offered to change our grill, cut our meat, refill our water, etc. As for the meats, we opted for the lunch menu, so I’ll just write about that. –pork belly 3⁄5 Some pieces were too chewy, but some were very good. hit or miss –marinated pork 4⁄5 could be a little intense for some people, but i enjoyed it alot –marinated chicken 4⁄5 good. –brisket 2⁄5 wayyyyy too chewy. didn’t eat it that was all i tried the sides were all pretty good, they had rice paper. they had lettuce, green onion shreds. i liked the pork belly kimchi jiggae, but they don’t have anymore pumpkin soup? Also, our grill was a little weird. It was tilted so all the oil was gathering on one side, so they had to put napkins on it the whole time. –__– They need to fix/remodel their interior and applianes. They started cleaning at 9:30 even though they close at 10. That was a little disgruntling. Even shut off the back lights and put all the food away. But they gave us a plate of dessert when we asked. Will I come back? mm… if I was FAMISHED and this was the only place in the area, yes. But I don’t think I will specially plan to come here by will.

I should have taken a hint and avoided this place… the restaurant says it all«FEEDABLE.» You can definitely feed a lot of people for the price. but for it’s name it certainly lacks quality! This place is disturbingly old and out of place. literally a hole in the wall. though I’d like to think most hole in the wall places are decent, this one just made my heart sink… and my stomach. First off, the food is OLD! I came on a Saturday night when the meal was not even $ 10 but $ 20. I was so sad! Smoke was all over the place, ventilation was not adequate enough to keep all the fumes to a minimum. Our grill was even tilted and they never fixed it. Though the server was nice, I felt like this place was so dingy and food was not coming out fast enough even though they kept telling us they were busy! The only thing I could stand to eat was the marinated kalbi. The brisket was awfully dry and chewy and flavorless. The sauces they had could not make up for what the meats lacked in flavor. The rest of the«side dishes» looked abysmal. Kimchi was ok, but too much on the spicy side. Cold noodles were weird tasting and if you’re not a fan of cold tasting soup with noodles, don’t get them! The potato salad was tasteless. The only thing I enjoyed was the jap chae, which was the clear, brown looking noodles. I was scared of trying the other food because everything looked like it hasn’t been replaced throughout the day. They were actually pretty decent. Everything else looked old — the food & décor. Bathrooms were awful. and looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in years. The seats were literally torn and cracked after many years of use, they basically used clear tape to repair its worn out appearance. Can this place be any more ghetto? Before stepping in, ask yourself, is this place worth $ 10? Like the old saying, you get what you paid for. But in my case, after spending a good $ 20 on the saddest tasting kbbq food ever, I should have hauled my butt over to Chamsoot Gul for a better kbbq experience.

This place is HELLADIRTYYY& Nasty!!! Everything is just disgusting. Do not come here! We saw the sign«$ 9.99 for AYCE», and we were starving, so we walked in. The minute we sat down, we immediately noticed the broken seats. The floor was dirty. And the meat? Super low quality with nasty aftertaste! Flies were flying everywhere, they even landed right on my SPICYPORK! And that was the only meat I could actually stand eating, everything else was unbelievably horrible. We could even hear the other tables complaining about the meat being«dry» & «tasteless». The whole place was filled with smoke, the kind where you look at the air and everything is foggy/hazy. The ventilation is so bad I could hardly breathe, I had to go out a few times for fresh air. I didn’t dare try the fruits and appetizers since they looked old & nasty. Before we left, my boyfriend even helped them kill a fly and threw it on the grill. This is the first time we left before we were even full. We’re never ever coming back here again! Worst KBBQ experience in my life!

Run the fukk away! Turn around and get the hell away!!! Flies and dirty ass floors! Smfh! My dad wanted to eat here because we loved coming as kids. We walked in and the place is a sh! thole. Floors are caked in dirt! Flies everywhere and landing on food. My dad still insisted and I watched him eat. My stomach got upset just watching him eat. And the grill is hella small too. Shouldn’t weekends have seafood? The only seafood was frozen micro shrimps and black squid! GAG. One good thing is that they gave you soda in the can. But hell, it was $ 16.99 because it was Sunday =L PS. I thought, shit, I’ll eat the rice… they can’t fekk up rice — their rice is BOOBOO!

Not that it makes a significant difference from my previous review, but this place has really gone downhill. I was just here this past weekend and the meat didn’t even seem to be fully marinated enough. It was just bland. They seem to not have as much food options as they did in the past. Some of the fruits they had in the front counter looked unappetizing. Won’t be coming here again.

Umm, I’ve DEFINITELY been to better AYCE Korean BBQ places than this one. To echo everyone else’s sentiment, this place is pretty filthy. Everything just seems scattered and the lady randomly kept coming over to cut our cooked meat with scissors that she had previously used to cut raw meat… uhhh, isn’t there some kind of sanitation law against that? Anyway, the food is pretty mediocre too. They have a large assortment of different types of meats, including bulgogi, spicy pork, BBQ ribs, etc(i.e. all the good stuff), but most of it is poorly marinated. Some of the sides are decent, but most of them are sucky… I like the ones at Cham Sut Gol a lot better. Even their cold noodles weren’t the greatest — and I think that’s a pretty tough Korean dish to screw up! :( On top of that, they don’t give you ice cream, nor do they give you coffee… or any of the other«treats» I’m used to getting at most other AYCE places. Hmph! Trust me, there are MUCH better places! This place literally gave me a tummyache :(

UGH. I’ve never been so disgusted eating at a restaurant in my life. Once upon a time, this place used to be good and CLEAN… but that was a LONG time ago. Today was the first time back in a while, and I couldn’t believe how much has changed with this place since. I took my parents here for lunch. First of all, there’s a huge sign outside that says $ 10 for lunch. No other disclaimer. When we sat down, the server told us, it’s $ 12.99 today, or $ 16.99 if you want the ‘dinner’ stuff like seafood. Ok whatever… half way through lunch, the server came over and told us, the owner changed their minds and lunch is $ 10 per person. Um. Ok. They probably saw how disgusted I was with the food here. My biggest gripe about this place is that it’s DIRTY. The floor is disgusting. How can you eat comfortably anywhere when the floor is that dirty? Their chopsticks are cheap and crooked, their forks and plates are dirty and looks like they’ve been run through the dishwasher a gazillion times. Because lunch is so cheap, I didn’t expect the food to be any good. So let’s not talk about how inedible the meat is, lettuce wilted, side dishes tasteless and old. Everything tasted old. I’m sounding very angry now, so let me just say that at least the service is good. I don’t care if it costs 1.99 to eat here, I will not be back again. LOL

I decided to give this place another try. The first time I went(last year), service was shoddy, ATBEST. This time(two weeks ago), it was non-existent. Of all my 30 years of eating, this was the WORSTEXPERIENCE I’ve ever had at a restaurant. This was the first time I’ve wanted to get up and leave BEFORE I FINISHEDEATING. Play-by-play of the evening: Came in, stood at the front for 5 minutes, went into the dining area and stood there for 5 minutes. No help at all. Not a hello, a wave to direct me and my party where to sit, NOTHING. My sister walked up to a guy busing tables. She walked back to our party and said we could sit at the far end table. So we did. Went to grab food: ribs, bacon, various banchan. Sat down. Put food on grill. Food is now cooked. Time elapsed? About 15 or so minutes. STILLNOUTENSILS, NONAPKINS, NO F-ING WATER?! Flagged the guy down. He brought chopsticks. Brought our sodas. 10 minutes go by. NONAPKINS? Asked him, AGAIN. He nodded, said yes, and went to go bus table after table, stopping now and again to cut up meat at other tables. FLAGGEDHIMDOWNAGAIN. He said, yes, and then ran off to do whatever. That’s when we asked the owner-looking man and he brought us napkins. Finished our drinks, asked for water and a refill of our soda, along with a cup of ice for our tea. He came back with our ice cup filled with water, and more waters. There were three of us. He brought back 5 waters. You do the math. We had enough and asked for the check. He nodded and disappeared to bus tables and cut meat for others. We asked him again after another ten minutes. He came back with the check. Guess how long it took him to pick up the check? Oh… about 3 minutes or so. Food was nothing special. Went for a late dinner on a Saturday night. Same ol, same ol. It took them a while to refill things, and FOREVER to replenish the sesame oil. Save your money and go to a better place like New Seoul BBQ Buffet on Garden Grove Blvd. in Garden Grove. During my 3 week vacay back to Cali, I was set on binging on kbbq. New Seoul = 2. Feedable =1.

I hate to do this but i have to give this place a 1 star. the restaurant is dirty; while there were plenty of options… none looked that GREAT! as a matter of fact i was a bit scared to eat because i ws just wondering how long have these items been sitting out here? As i walked by the dessert area, it was just sad. the fruits did not look fresh and there arent that many options. And then what scared me the most is seeing little gnats flying around the kimchi section! wtf!!! i got tons of brisket and it was soooo chewy and tough to eat. If you’re in the area, i highly recommend the other ayce korean bbq down the street called: «Sam Han Korean BBQ»
Bang for your buck! A friend and I went there for a weekday dinner $ 18.99 w/everything included. My friend is a seasoned k-bbq eater, I am perhaps still a novice. She graciously allowed me to dilly dally my way around the different assorted meats(marinated, non-marinated, sea food etc), until I finally make my own discovery that there are 2 maybe 3 types of meats really worthy of the all you can eat challenge: pork belly, beef brisket, and if you still have some stomach space bulgogi. This place is a self service buffet, so don’t expect stellar cleanliness and quality. It’s a quick and cheap fix for major k-bbq craving. If I were to go back again, I’m making a bee line for the aforementioned meats. Another plus, AYCE banchan(but don’t get too much!) and fresh lettuce/sauces/rice paper to compliment the meats.

It shall remain 3 stars. Although I’ve been back here several times since I first reviewed them, I still can’t give it a complete 4. Interestingly enough, they’ve changed their pricing differently. They’ve posted signs on one area where it is $ 9.99 for a certain selection of beef(brisket, chicken gizzards, and such). $ 12.99 included the prior selection with addition to bogogi, spicy pork, etc… Then the dinner price of $ 19.99 includes all the selection with kalbi and such others. Yes, a bit confusing and I can only imagine how they will clarify all their breakdown of pricing for each group of customers. Everything still tastes OK. They are the closest AYCE korean bbq in my hood. I just couldn’t phantom how uncleaned their floors were today. It was so sticky that everytime I would walk around certain areas, my flip flops would adhere to the dang floor! Ooh so not good:/

I am happy that as an overweight mexican, the waitress wasn’t ignoring me! No but seriously, as you can tell from my review of another place, this place fared alot better! Mostly husby and I ate the short rib and chicken and they were perfectly marinated, so so good! I wish i would have eaten more. Pros: 1.AYCE and grab, you don’t need to wait for the waitress to give you a refill on meat. 2. The waitress comes around often to refill water and cut the meats for you. 3. Food was marinated perfectly, it wasn’t a dirty place. 4. In the restrooms, there is even mouth wash dispensers. 5. Being of mexican descent, i was treated no differently than anyone else. Cons: 1.Lunch ends at 3pm, then after 3pm price is 18.99, and kalbi is only served then for dinner. 2. Dessert is fruits or cookies, pretty basic.

Things I’ve always liked about Feedable: Rice paper, pickled radish, fresh lettuce, make your own salted sesame oil, and of course, that quirky name. I guess I certainly am feedable if I’m coming to an AYCEKBBQ establishment, right? In other news, as others have said, the best part here is that everything is self-service. No need to wait for refills on your meat or banchan! Grab as much or as little of every kind of meat(entrails, innards, and all) and seafood under the sun your heart desires. They’ve got a ton of salad and cold options as well, including Korean cold noodles(naengmyeon) and a bunch of different kimchi, pickled veggie, and seaweed concoctions. They even have a hot food section with chicken wings and more tame items for your finicky eaters who may not jive with the whole KBBQ experience. I’m not Korean, but I’ve always gotten more than adequately polite service here. To me, happiness and the abundance of options and choices go hand in hand. This is why I love buffets so much. Feedable is one of the few places I can tailor my meal to my specifications no matter what mood my palate happens to be in and walk away with a different, yet enjoyable experience every time. Fair prices, good food, excellent selection all make Feedable a winner in my book.
