It's been a while since I had a little BBQ and this wasn't a little. Ordered a small for two came with quality cuts, all you can eat yummy sides and our waiter was attentive in cooking the meat to perfection.

Out of town, and stumbled upon this Gem! Food was perfect to share for a group of 4! We were seated quickly for a Sunday night. Meat was incredible. Shoutout to the best server Josue! He was incredible at attending to our needs and loved the communication.

We were visiting from CA and craving Asian food--this Korean BBQ spot did not disappoint! Our server, Josue (apologies if I'm not spelling that right!), was super friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. The aesthetic of the place was spot-on too; it reminded me of the KBBQ spots in Koreatown-LA which made for a really comfortable and familiar vibe. This was also the type of kbbq where they cook it for you, not AYCE. We ordered the beef combo for 3-4 people, and it was the perfect amount for us. The rib eye was definitely our favorite, loved the banchan, and the soybean stew was so flavorful. Quality and GREAT kbbq fix in AZ!

So my daughter wanted me to try this spot hidden on the inside of Desert Ridge shopping mall/area.. Yes you must walk into the Mall area( if you're walking towards the movie theater turn around and walk the other way it's a little hidden) . They won't take reservations unless you have a party of 12 or more. But you can call to get on a wait list if your a few mins out... ( nice young lady dropped the gem via phone) Without calling the wait time for 5 was 35 mins... nice area to people watch and wait for a txt via phone while your on " the wait list" ... You can cook table side or they can do it for you. ( the tip is already calculated fyi) Korean taste was 8-10 ( lived in Korea for a few military years) the pork was exceptionally tender, the kimchi soup was good, the sides were ok.. nothing overwhelming. Large portions... we tried 3 diff meats. Two stone soups & a dumpling soup that was gone to the last drop. The wait staff was very good but & kind.. the place was busy and turning over tables left & right. Small space but it works. Delicious... $$$. You will pay for deliciousness. Well done bathrooms can only be used by one person at a time... ( not a fan) bathrooms could use a makeover. Cool place otherwise. Call a few mins ahead for reservations... try it.

My wife is Korean and we've been married for almost 25 years and we have had Korean food in KTowns in New York City, New Jersey, Los Angeles, Atlanta, the San Francisco Bay Area, and also in Seoul Korea. We have never frequented a Korean restaurant like Sizzle! The food and barbecue is very very authentic. The meat quality was off the charts. Bing Su, or shaved ice, was better than any we've ever had anywhere in the world. My daughter doesn't typically like to order soon dobu - tofu soup- but she enjoyed it so much that she wanted to have it again, which she never does! This restaurant is beyond authentic! And did I mention it is better than restaurants I've eaten in Korea? Service is friendly and quick. We have come back to this restaurant at least once or twice a week and we would more often if I had infinite cash. Icing on the cake: no MSG!

My boyfriend wanted Korean BBQ for his birthday dinner. Sizzle was close to where we were staying, so we decided to try it. The restaurant was busy, and we were told there was a 30 to 40 minute. However, we probably waited 5 minutes before being sat. I have only been to Korean BBQ restaurants where you cook the food. At Sizzle the food is cooked for you, which I think I prefer. Our server/cook was Delaney, and she was great. She cooked the meats to perfection. She also made sure to ask if we wanted more sides or needed more drinks. She made our experience great. I would definitely recommend this place and can't wait to be back.

Sizzle is the best KKBQ in Arizona, it reminds me a lot of Baekjong. They have great meat quality and the workers cook for you, so you relax while eating. The small beef combo is a good portion and very filling, we shared between 3 people and had leftovers. I wish they had a beef + pork combo, that would be the best of both worlds. The workers are so nice and the service very attentive. I've never seen a kbbq place have bingsoo, it was such a cherry on top! ig: @cravingswithcat

What a fun experience!!!!!!! I know I know I'm probably late to the game of trying Koreran Barbeque haha but I have always wanted to try it and my family and I were ALL impressed! I love that you pick your own meat/s and it comes with lots of sides and sauces to try... Also the meats were sooooo fresh and DELICIOUS! Such a fun family date night! :D (or any night you're going for!)

My boyfriend found out about this place from a friend, and he was so excited to share that there was a KBBQ place for us to try together. I looked up the menu, and I immediately noticed how the quality of the meat looked top tier. As a note, it is also not all-you-can-eat (AYCE), so I would suggest doing the combos + ordering a la carte. It is great that your food still comes with some sides (if you order the meals or combo!) For dinner, we ordered the small beef combo with: beef brisket, ribeye, marinated short rib, marinated thinly sliced beef (bulgogi), and kimchi stew. We didn't order anything additional aside from two white rices, as well as soju (shoutout to the lychee soju and Peach ChuHai cocktail.) My favorite meats were the brisket and marinate short rib, but all of it was delicious. I would say it was the perfect amount of food for two people because I had to take deep breaths at the end of the meal. Our waitress was also a sweetheart. She was very patient and soft spoken! The workers cook the kbbq for you, by the way, so they're standing there as you're having conversation over dinner. She would leave to let the meat cook and to let us eat, so it is not overbearing or awkward at all. We do like the experience of cooking our own meat. Regardless, the food and alcohol was delicious, there was good customer service, and the place itself has a good amount of booths/tables and reminds me of KBBQ spots in San Diego.
