    The best place i’ve eaten in Thailand. I am celiac and it is very difficult to find a place to eat, and here we have had a wonderful time. The staff was very friendly and the manager explained to us everything on the menu. My family doesn’t need to eat gluten free like me but they also found this place outstanding. Really good food and prices !!

    Fantastic Korean fried chicken! Banchan is also delicious and they will refill if you run out. We ordered the mix of 3 flavors of fried chicken (select your own flavors). We picked mala, mango, and Yangnyeong) flavors of fried chicken - all were delicious. We asked for a bowl of rice and a mango juice. Outdoor seating is available and the lights outdoors are fun. We'll be back!

    This place is in the great district of Nimman! Close to lots of great shops. Here, you’ll get some of the best quality Korean food with AMAZING customer service. I came in just by myself and they offered a side of AMAZING Korean style fired chicken! I’ll be coming back 100%

    This has got to be my most favorite Korean BBQ place in Chiang Mai. I come here often and my go to is the Signature Buffet. I’m a big fan of Kimchi Jjigae and Kimchi here is perfect. The salad is also fresh and meat are so good. Better if you grill the meat yourself. I’ve tried the Premium Buffet here too but not a big of the beef. I would say Pork and Chiken is better here.

    Came for the amazing looking chicken wings, but ended up going big and getting the buffet! Our waitresses were on top of keeping our meats full and always stopped by to check up on us! Excellent service and experience!

    I have nothing against the menu oh how the food taste like because I working as part time deliver and the staff just let me wait there for like 40 minutes, the staff they don't even care how I was outside and never say the word or even see if I even exist so I get this must be the way it is.

    Absolutely amazing! So different from what you find in other restaurants. We ordered the barbecue and at first we were skeptical, but as soon as we took the first bite it was delicious. So many things to choose from, and everyone can make the food how they like it. Also extremely service oriented workers here, so kind and helpful. Definitely recommend going here!

    Very good evening last night! The food is excellent, the service is quick, and the place is nice. The waitress was very friendly, she addressed directly to me in English, I talked to her in Thai, she asked about the spiciness, etc - usually, with my GF, they just speak in Thai and ignore me 🙄.

    Staff are super friendly, almost to the point where it’s too much if you know what I mean. Chicken was kind of soggy, not crispy like I’ve had at other Korean chicken places. The BBQ flavor didn’t taste like BBQ at all it had a lime flavor to it. The gimbap was awesome though I highly recommend you try that. It’s a nice atmosphere above the street level and there’s both indoor and outdoor seating available. #BeatTheGrind

    Great KBBQ spot! Spent every week here when I lived in Thailand. A great soju selection. The all you can eat menu is so great. It is only pork and they beef is extra. Their sides are fresh and tastes great when combined with the barbecue. The best crispy chicken I’ve ever had has been here! I’ve been to Korea more than a handful of items too. James, the owner, is extremely kind and welcoming. He makes sure to stop by your table every so often to make sure you have everything you need. Great dinner spot

    Amazing buffet or your selection of entrees. Ordered sirloin steak, Korean chicken, and kimbap (pork belly sushi). All of the food was rich, flavorful, and unique. The sirloin steak came with refillable kimchi - each dish had an interesting flavor. Staff was amazing too! Highly recommended to visit KOBQ for dinner whenever you find yourself in Nimman!

    One of my favorite spots for Korean fried chicken in town. My go to fav sauce is the yangnyeom extreme spicy. The volcano sauce is also delish! They also have some fun fusion style dishes. The bulgogi tacos were a fun twist! And as always, I loveeee the banchan. Don’t think you have to come here for just the bbq options, they have a full and fantastic menu of single dishes as well.

    Excellent Korean BBQ place, with nice outdoor seating. Their Airy “rooftop” allows you to enjoy the nimman atmosphere. They have delicious Korean fried chicken (try their mango sauce)! Their prices are very reasonable, and they have a great selection of cocktails!

    Excellent service, tons of sides, large portions.

  • 4/5 Julin L. 2 years ago on Google
    We sit on the porch. Fried chicken is not ok for me since they are too sweet. Crispy alright but the batter is way too thick. You don’t have to coat the chicken that well to make it crispy. The beef dish is better. Side dishes are ok. The cold soup is quite unique.

    Delicious food. Thumbs up to the manager, who had a perfect attitude and offered us a free dessert after one of the servers made a mistake while taking the order. We'll come back for sure!

  • 5/5 Slava R. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice and delicious 😋 😍 👌 place, if you have never had it, go for it. Fast enjoyable time, and the owner is a very cool guy. Definitely meet the guy 🙏👍

  • 5/5 Paul H. 8 months ago on Google
    I was not familiar yet with korean BBQ. The servers explained how the use the different kimchi in combination with the sauces, meat and lettuce. The food was excellent and at a great price. It is more expensive than your local street vendor but for me still a good price/quality balance. The staff was very friendly. I think the only thing I can say is that the ambiance was not as charming as some other places I went. Notice that the one picture I addes was not all the food I ordered.

  • 5/5 Anna M. 6 months ago on Google
    My husband and I have been here a few times and we absolutely love it. The owner is so observant and kind. He goes out of his way to make sure you’re happy. The staff are amazing as well — super attentive and genuine smiles. I love the little snacks you get ahead of time (which are refillable) and the food has always been fantastic. As vegetarians, there are quite a few options but the owner all told us they can make anything vegetarian if you ask. I also loveeeee their spicy sauce that I had last night 💚

  • 5/5 El T. 6 months ago on Google
    Excellent place. Good quality grill plate and delicious condiments to the BBQ. Service was immaculate as it always has been in my 4-5 visits here over the years. The only comment I had - and this is certainly not a criticism of the staff at all, but an expression of sympathy with them - is that they constantly felt the need to run to attend to needs of the customers. I can only assume some customers are so demanding that they feel pressured to do this, which is sad. It ever so slightly takes away from the go-slow feeling of sitting down to BBQ. Feel sorry for the staff who have to literally run while looking after tables.

  • 5/5 Saskia 4 months ago on Google
    I would give the place 5/5 stars! The service was great and the BBQ even better. You get delicious food in very good quality for a reasonable price. Also the owner was very very friendly. Would recommend it 100%. The only „problem“ (if I could call it a problem) was that the toilets were located outside and were public.

    This is a wonderful Korean barbecue restaurant. It has opened around four years so it is quite well-known already. I tried the 399 barbecue chicken and pork buffet. I also tried the Jaep Chae(sic) and a bean curd tofu pork soup. Everything was fantastic.
