Had a good experience here. I came as a solo diner and they made sure that I am aware that I needed to order at least 2 meat items. Which was fine. Service was quick and they were very attentive. You don’t have to do any of the cooking. To me, the portions size is adequate for one person. I think that if you are eating alone, you could easily finish 2 plates of meat. I saw some comments on pricing and while I do agree that they are on the pricier side…the quality is very good. I don’t mind paying higher prices for better quality. Side dishes are good. I like that they kept the dipping sauces simple. Overall it was an enjoyable meal and I would go again.

Amazing food, great personable staff. A shout out to our server Sarah for providing us excellent service and introductory to Korean BBQ. Very much a social dining experience. Perfectly cooked Special Combo & Fried Dumplings, very filling for 2 people (myself with a very hardy appetite).

I've been coming to Kim's since I was a kid. Now I get to take my kids and give them the same special memories. It's one of our favorite restaurants in the city and there's really no place like it. No fuss, high quality/ authentic food, hospitable staff- for us it's worth the splurge for special occasions. The variety of flavors from all the different banchans, sides, stews and meats makes for a meal that's well rounded as it is satiating. Every bite is precious! We would prefer this over any bougie steakhouse any day. So happy to support and love on our family owned small businesses that are unique to Philly and have stood the test of time.

The $99 BBQ set here is a must-try — the flavor is amazing! 🍖Perfect for two, though the meat portions are a bit light. If you’re a big eater, you might need to order extra. Still, the food and service are totally on point. Highly recommend for a chill meal with friends or family! 👌

Best Korean BBQ spot in Philadelphia, period. The service was great when I was there. Food is definitely 10 out of 10. Don’t forget to try their secret menu, it won’t disappoint you.
