Right near Korea town, very nice location. This is probably the only Korean bbq in town where you see many westerners dining in. The restaurant is spacious, has a second floor dining with full menu. Nicely decorated, staffs on site very prompt. I could see why this place is popular. In term of food, the meats and sushi aren’t fresh. Comparing with other true authentic Korean bbq, the less selections of meats, and no hot pot option as well. Overall it was a great experience for us.

Took my dad here for Father’s Day and it was amazing! The $49.90 all-you-can-eat deal is such great value — wagyu, pork belly, seafood, Korean fried chicken and even sushi made fresh on the spot. Everything tasted fresh and the staff were really friendly. Definitely recommend if you want a proper feast in Melbourne CBD!

2025: BBQ King is in my top 3 Korean BBQ spots in the city. Their sushi station is by far the most impressive, having hand made dishes made in front of you. The meat selection also looks to be of higher quality. The staff are ever so helpful, replacing the grill and offering assistance. Best bet is to book in advance, even with two levels, it packs out. *****

Just had a buffet dinner here tonight with friend. They offer a wide variety of sushi, and the different meats are very fresh. There’s also a decent selection of seafood. For hot dishes, there are various Korean-style options, and you can even make your own instant noodles. A few types of soup are available too—my personal favorite is the beef and radish soup. Having a bowl of steaming hot soup really warms you up nicely in winter. The fruit and desserts afterward were quite good too—the watermelon was incredibly sweet. The service was efficient and attentive—empty plates were cleared quickly, and the grill plates were promptly replaced whenever needed. All the staff were friendly, especially the male server in the photo. Thanks for the wonderful hospitality tonight!
