    Enjoyed this all you can eat Korean bbq place. They have lots of sides, cuts of meats etc etc. bring your jacket, it’s cold in the restaurant. I’m guessing it’s to offset the heat of the cooking grill on each table. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

    Came here on a Monday late afternoon. We were seated right away. Serving us with food was fast even when it became busier. Their meat is pretty good, especially the marinated/flavored ones (highly recommend the spicy beef brisket). Would definitely come back!

    I always thought this was just a barbecue place, because their name. However I was happy to hear from a friend that they have a full range soups and stews, bibimbops, a variety of different soondubu versions, and even several cold noodle dishes! Went there today and had their yukgaejang, which was excellent. really nice broth with some heat, but not so much the flavor gets lost in it, and the meat was very tender. Came with a good selection of six banchan, with a variety of textures and seasonings. Service was very friendly and prompt, and the interior has a nice look and is well kept. Definitely going to come back here to try some more dishes. Recommended.

    I recently dined at Prime Grill Korean BBQ AYCE (All You Can Eat) and had a fantastic experience. The quality of the meats was definitely a highlight—each cut was fresh, flavorful. The selection was impressive, ranging from tender beef, pork, and chicken to various marinated options that were full of bold, savory and sweet flavors. The meats grilled up beautifully on the tabletop barbecue, offering a satisfying, interactive dining experience. As for the cleanliness of the establishment, I was very impressed. The restaurant was spotless, with well-maintained tables and a clean grill area for each guest. The staff was quick to clean up after each round, ensuring the space stayed tidy throughout our meal. Overall, Prime Grill delivers a top-notch AYCE experience with great food quality and a clean, comfortable environment. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a satisfying Korean BBQ experience.
