Steve's Korean Bbq

A great place for a quick bite. The bbq chicken lunch special is a good deal. And tasty too. The comes up quickly.

Ordered the grilled glass noodle with BEEF, but also got a special surprise of tofu mixed in with my beef. Which would be fine if I wasn't allergic to soy. I called and I was told that there was no tofu in it just black mushrooms. Idk how they were so certain without even asking the person who made it. See pics and tell me that's not tofu? Even google image search said tofu.

I used to come here all the time when I was going to school at Cal 25 years ago. I was in the area today, so I looked up whether it was still there, and it was! The place looked about the same. I asked the guy at the register if the place was still under the same ownership from 25 years ago, and he said yes. I remembered from college that this place gave generous portions and the taste was pretty good. But with Covid and that 25 years have passed, my expectations were not too high that it would be the same.I ordered the BBQ short ribs with a double order of the bean sprout salad instead of kimchi. The portions were as generous as I remembered, and the taste was as good as I remembered as well. The price was also cheap compared to other Korean restaurants. $20 for a generous order of BBQ short ribs. That's at least $35 else where. If you are looking for a no frills, cheap but good Korean bbq, look no further. This was one of my go-to places when I was in college, and it's just as good as I remembered going back 25 years later.

Large portions. Food is not refined and not authentic. Good place if you want the portion but not the taste.

The food was pretty standard and solid. The beef was seasoned nicely, I enjoyed the bean sprouts, and portion size was good (though I think merited given the price). I'd go here for a quick meal with friends if already around, but if I want some real tasty Korean food I will certainly go elsewhere (perhaps Oakland). I don't think the restaurant claims to be any more than it is either, so on the whole as expected.

It is my go-to spot for quick and tasty KBBQ. I love their Barbecue Short Rib, and here's why it's great - it's seasoned just right and super tender. The sides, like kimchi and bean sprout salad, add extra zing and freshness to the meal. These sides not only complement the short rib beautifully but also refresh your palate. Plus, you get a generous portion of rice to enjoy with everything.

Steve's is my go-to! Berkeley has many great food options but man when you need a solid reliable spot for great galbi, Steve's hooks it UP with their portions. Honestly could make it into two meals for the price of one. They really reliable and quick when it comes to ordering from them. If you want to go, take it to-go; if you'd like to sit down grab a seat--either way you're going to enjoy the food!

This place used to be my always go to get food from my college days! Came back to check them out.. still the same but this food court has been pretty bad.. many flies inside and outside the place ...The food is still good but not the same anymore

Years later Steve's is still the best value in town. We went here frequently as students, but as adults the food is still good enough for the price and portions.
