Gangnam Station Korean BBQ - My Go-To Spot for AYCE KBBQI've been coming to Gangnam Station Korean BBQ in Buena Park for a while now, and it never disappoints. If you're looking for quality all-you-can-eat (AYCE) Korean BBQ with great meat selection and solid service, this is the place to go.Why I Keep Coming Back1. Meat Quality is Top-Notch - They serve USDA Prime, Black Angus, and Choice cuts, which is a level above most AYCE spots. The brisket is always fresh, the pork belly is thick and juicy, and the marinated short ribs (galbi) are packed with flavor.2. Huge Menu Selection - They have tons of meats, seafood, and sides, so I never get bored. The banchan (side dishes) are fresh and constantly refilled.3. Late Night Hours - They're open until 2 AM, which makes it a great late-night food spot. Perfect after a long day or a night out.4. Service is Fast & Friendly - The servers are quick to bring out the meats and always check in to see if you need more.What Could Be Better?The wait times on weekends can be pretty long, so I try to come on weeknights or later at night when it's less crowded. Also, parking can fill up fast, so sometimes you have to park a little further.Final ThoughtsGangnam Station is easily one of the best AYCE KBBQ spots in Buena Park. The meat quality is a step above most places, and the late hours make it super convenient. Whether you're a KBBQ pro or trying it for the first time, this is spot you should try. Shout out for TJ and TAMIR

I decided to try this Korean BBQ spot since they're open until 2 AM, which was perfect for a late-night meal. I arrived around 12:30 AM, but was completely ignored until 1 AM, with staff telling me that last call was in 15 minutes. That was a bit frustrating, especially since I was hoping for a full experience.The food itself wasn't anything special, and it felt like the options were pretty limited. Even though it was an all-you-can-eat menu, I was only given two protein options to choose from, even though I was dining with a group of five. On top of that, I wasn't offered any drinks besides the water already at the table.Overall, while the late hours are convenient, the service and food didn't leave much to be desired. It felt rushed and lacking in variety, which was disappointing considering the price.

This place has bad quality greasy and chewy meat, gross ban chan, bad service, and messy buffet area. Read more if you're interested:I have been wanting to try this place since it was highly recommended and rated but was sadly disappointed. All the young servers were busy and acted like they didn't have time to answer your questions. I understand being busy, as I've worked in food, it's stressful, but all I'm saying is it really showed, and they didn't need to be rude.As for the food, we got option A and tried several meats. The meat was chewy, greasy, and just bad quality. They advertise wagyu, but whatever they brought us was extremely low quality. The ban Chan: fried chicken was soggy and cold, nothing was fresh or tasty.I ordered the ramen and our server acted like it was a bother to bring it out. He placed 2 packs of shin ramen on the table but by then we were just done with the place so we didn't even want to make it anymore. So we took it home, but he didn't like that--oops! But we're not going back so good bye forever! I got my shin ramen for a bad experience lolOverall, it was a sad experience, I'm sure the business owners did not intend this since it looks like a nice restaurant, and I don't like to leave a bad review but I felt that these things should be addressed.

I would say this is my favorite KBBQ in Buena Park. It's quite large on the inside and each table comfortably sits at least six people. It's located in a small shopping center with plenty of free parking attached. They have three different menu tiers each separated by price and options. What's really nice is they have a self-serve chicken/meat station with other sides and proteins so you can help yourself while you wait for the meats to cook.I would say that pricing is fair and they do have a lot of great menu options. I would say the service is also very quick and they were very attentive about changing the grill before it started burning the meat. I would recommend and would stop in again next time I'm in the area.

A year later and this place is still just as good. We came early before the rush and we were assisted by the amazing TJ who provided top quality service especially when we had to change tables because our grill wasn't working. The food is very fresh and delicious. Presentation is great and the decor has been maintained well. TJ takes care of his customers and attends to our needs. We really enjoy the raw bar as well as we enjoy the Hawaiian pork belly.

My go-to OC/LA KBBQ spot i've been a fan of for a few years now, but never left a review. So let me try to put you on... Food (5/5) - Despite a giant menu, every tier is full of great options for the value. Most of the time I opt for the B menu and hit the essentials like the short rib fingers, prime beef tongue, galbi marinade pork belly, brisket, LA short rib and wagyu beef belly. They provide a surplus of banchan ready to eat at the table, specialty items that are worth ordering, and VERY well marinated meats from both the kitchen menu and at the serve yourself bar. They also offer a huge range of flavor combinations giving many dipping sauces/chimichurri and other tastes like sweet corn cheese. You can even ask for them to replace your grill with a pot to make your own ramen! Bonus points for presentation despite being a high demand AYCE spot. Service (5/5) - Every visit, any size party, i've always had a pretty great experience with quick service and not many errors. They also have insane hours so you can experience a stacked kbbq menu basically any time of the day. (they even have a happy hour menu!)Ambiance (5/5) - Great location with tons of parking, tons of spaced out tables, very comfortable eating environment that's capable of handling larger parties. The decor is more modern, clean, professional and it's usually not very smokey even when it's busy.

The 5 star service is Ian. We were very lucky to have him help our table. Vey attentive and he wasn't even our waiter. He filled our orders , our tea, and gave us our meats and entered our orders. The food was good but the service what makes it better. He wasn't our server it was a lady but he definitely filled In the gap of service with his quickness and readiness to server!! Get Ian and I will knowWhat I mean. We got C order and it gave us quality meats.

Kangnam station was one of the best K bbq restaurant in OC! Best deal with happy hour :)Our server Hu li was awesome thanks!!
