We ordered from the Pot-lid Grill Menu and were pleased with the meat quality. However, the heavy thyme seasoning was overpowering and didn’t suit our taste. A menu note about this would help future guests make more informed choices, as the thyme flavor was strong and almost medicinal. Service was also lacking. Despite requesting the cast iron grill, the staff heated the regular grill and gave us an AYCE menu instead. After some confusion, we were given the correct grill and menu, but the server seemed unfamiliar with the cuts of meat, which impacted the experience. Overall, while the meat was good, the unclear seasoning and service missteps made our visit less enjoyable than it could have been.

Absolutely loved my experience!!!! Have tried a lot of KBBQ in the area and this is one of my favorites. It’s great for groups, more affordable than their competitors but just as tasty. The steamed egg and sauce options were my favorite. Went on a Sunday night and they were very busy. Service was efficient. Love having different pricing options and a simple menu. Will definitely be back!!

The cream corn is served in the aluminum cup, very sloppy. And the clay pot is chipped all around, is that even safe to eat with? I gave a 4 star on the food because the pork belly and bulgogi taste pretty decent.

Pretty good place, waiters can get your orders wrong quite often though. Also they put a limit on beef tongue which is one of the main things that kept Moodaepo above competitors. I will possibly go to other competitors now that they have lost this advantage. The seating packs you together like sardines. Otherwise, the food is pretty good. If they didnt put a limit on beef tongue though my rating would go right back up.

Lots of tables/ no wait time AYCE 👏🏻 at a great price The ramen station is a unique addition that I haven't seen before! Also recommend the fluffy steamed egg, it's huge 😆 also a good selection of banchan for the table

Good service, good quality meats and the ramen station is fun! The have two AYCE options. We went with the cheaper one $29. Definitely will try the $39 option next time. The beef belly is fully of flavors with the fat. The seasoned sirloin was nice and juicy.

(review from 2yrs ago... edited and didn't realize it would refresh post date) Was worried about 3 star reviews @ 80 count. Seems service was the culprit like my beloved Manna so I would try them anyway. (servers were working hard). ANY time I flagged anyone down.. they were on it!!! Cuts, drink, anything we ask for came super fast... manager checked on us a couple time.. Quality was there as I had #12 on repeat 😆 Egg souffle was better than expected!!! Atmosphere was a plus (like that Chicken Butt place but for K-BBQ.) 🤔... Yeah... I'd go back so giving 5-stars... its new... stop acting like a Cartman and ask your waiter for anything you need when they busy.

I recently dined at Moodaepo KBBQ and had a wonderful experience! I appreciated the variety of options available for the AYCE price. The meats were delicious, and I loved the unique aesthetic of the restaurant. One fun highlight was the robot delivering the meat—it added a cool touch to the dining experience! The ramen bar was also a nice addition, offering a great selection. The interior was clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant atmosphere. While the service was generally good, I did wish it was a bit more attentive at times. Overall, Moodaepo KBBQ is a great spot for a fun and tasty meal!
