Sk@bbq - San Clemente

When you visit an ethnic restaurant, it's a bad sign when you don't see anyone of that race in there. I think I'm the only Asian that's not family or being paid to leave a review cause this place is terrible. My husband had the chicken noodle bowl. There was no actual chicken meat, but what looked to be a piece of liver and some other unidentifiable chunk of something. He also mentioned the noodles tasted like it cost 25 cents a package. I had the generic chicken teriyaki. I know it's a Japanese dish, but nothing was appealing on the menu to me. At least there was chicken in my dish. I would not recommend this place, spend your money elsewhere if you're looking for authentic Korean food.

I have driven by this place for a few years so my wife and I decided to give it a try. I don't understand all of the 4-5 star reviews. This place is awful. I ordered chicken ramen and I can honestly say that I don't think it was chicken in the soup. It did not taste like chicken at all...probably horse or something else. Ya, no chicken taste AT ALL. Also, the ramen tasted just like the cheap 4 for a dollar ramen you get at the store. My wife ordered the teriyaki chicken and it was so salty you could hardly taste the chicken. Although this seemed to be real chicken. So these 2 dishes and 2 drinks came to $30.00. Seriously this was at the top of some of the worst food that I have ever had. Also, just to add, I was stationed in Korea for a year when I was in the Army, so I know what real Korean food tasted like. This isn't it.

This is an ultimate neighborhood family owned Korean food restaurant. Their food really has a soul and I always enjoy going there. Owners are very polite , friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended

Found this place on Yelp cause we were going to the Outlets. It 's exactly as everyone says, a hole in the wall , but I can tell you that hole in the walls have the BEST food! It 's such a cute mom and pop store, I 'm pretty sure it 's the owners running and cooking the food, but that 's what makes it so GOOD! It 's like going to a Korean friend 's house and their mom is cooking up a dish. I ordered the bibimbap, that 's what I usually get at Korean restaurants. I was NOT disappointed. I had some at another restaurant last week and it was NOT even half as good as this place. I will DEFINITELY come back to this place again!!! My only complaint is I didn 't get to take a picture!!! But that was my bad though.

I went to this Korean BBQ place based on the reviews that I saw. I wonder if any of those reviews are real. The food was not worth it; my total bill was a little bit over $200, I have been to many Korean barbecue restaurants and this is by far the worst. I don't recommend it to anyone.
