A lot of Korean barbecue restaurants have a thing they do really well, or maybe something you rarely find- but sometimes you want consistency and to know exactly what you're going to get from a restaurant. Baekjeong can give you that. Join host Matthew Kang as he explains why Baekjeong is the best chain

Before going to the NYC location, I had been to the Queens location before and I liked the Queens location more. The differences are subtle like the side dishes offered and the ability to order yogurt soju instead of the upcharged cocktails they offer at the NYC location. The 24/7 Korean supermarket across the street in the Queens one is also a plus because we usually go in there and get desserts from the freezer section lol.

I remember the first time I went to a Korean barbecue restaurant and the waitress didn't never did not feel up are side dishes I spent like 100 dollar and she didn't feel her water she was just so rude and disrespectful and she got mad at me cuz I didn't leave a tip She chased us out the door complaining about the tip but she never gave us good service I hope things ain't the same anymore this was like in 2012 I want to say

Yikes, consistency? The other day I shelled out 100 for a large combo (brisket, short rib, and another choice. Only the brisket was above average, every piece of short rib was tough and had inedible muscle in the middle and the 3rd choice, which was marinated short rib for us, was at least tender but lacked any of that great short rib beef flavor. The free egg was better than the short rib.

Whoah - hey. Was there a cardboard cutout of Matthew without his glasses at the door as they walked in! The place is not only good, they mess with your head when you go there! I gotta go now! Are they going to seat me with a guy who looks like a red haired me? Maybe they'll have a guy who sounds and talks just like me do the serving!

100% agreed. I had this bbq in Beijing and had the best bbq in China. I also ordered a raw beef dish ( and I would usually never suggest you to eat raw beef in China) but damn, it was delicious and my stomach loved it too ( as in no sick feeling at all just like any good and expensive beef tartare. Strongly suggest it.

Ate at Aghassi Gopchang in LA and it was dank. It popular because the owner of both of these chains is one of South Korea's top TV host and former wrestler who does Aegyo too much LOL. It's hard to find restaurants here in the U. S that doesn't serve Perilla Leaves which is uncommon here.

What does being a chain have to do with consistency? If anything it's less consistent as meats and people cooking them vary place to place. Also this place does not have good quality meat from my experience. You're better off going to a local kbbq joint. Probably a better deal too.

Yeah, but the K-town location is the worst of the three Ive been to and with the longest wait. Torrance and SGV are better and the wait less grueling. But all locations seem a bit lax with their cleaning habits cuz the furniture seemed sticky and greasy during the last few visits.

That looks amazing. Serrano peppers are earthy but the seeds can be bitter. I might buy more and pickle them to see how that turns out. Love seeing these because they make me more interested in trying them. I'm mind blown compared to what I'm used to which is Chinese takeout.

English! Hi for bad sorry: )Baekjeong means butcher in Korea. Actually it's kind of disparaging word. I think it goes well when used as a name of Korean BBQ Chain but, You never call a butcher Baekjeong in Korea. That is so disrespecting word. Just saying!
