Ombu Grill - Salt Lake City

Around 22$ for all you can eat, it?s a great deal! Our favorites are brisket, pork belly, and hawaiian pork steak. There are so many types for you to try. However we did not order other appetizers or food because we are there just for the meat, so we can?t say if their cooking is authentic or not. Our waitress was very caring, she offered to change the grill for us couple of times and being attentive. They get very busy and always rushing here and there, be patient and understanding. On weekends they will have dinner items at dinner price for the whole day. Weekdays will be cheaper for lunch timings but not all menu are available. Drinks are not included.

This was my first experience at OMBU. I am visiting from out of town and was looking for something to do and was a little hungry. This place seemed to fit the bill. I don't normally care to cook my own food at a restaurant, but as I had nothing else to do, I thought I would try. The meats came out sliced perfectly. I ordered fried dumplings. They were a little smaller than I was used to seeing, but there were plenty, and their flavor more than made up for the size. They were quick to swap out cook tops as needed and often stopped to check if anything else was required. I will make one note. As someone who doesn't care for Kimchi, theirs was delicious. Good enough that I requested the kimchi fried rice. It, too, was amazing. I will most definitely bring coworkers here and family when they visit me out here. All in all I would 100% recommend OMBU Grill.

Had an amazing night today here. There?s a great variety to pick from and everything we tried was really good. But if you?re considering dinning in do keep in mind three things. 1. This is the most important, if you?re planning on going at night please make reservations, trust me, it?s going to save you a lot of trouble and waiting. 2. The flavor of the food is good, but if you?re looking for a complete authentic experience, you might me disappointed since the Korean stuff doesn?t really taste like the original food from Korea. I personally do not care about authenticity in this kind of cases so I had a great experience. 3. This place gets PACKED, like totally full, servers are at full speed rushing everywhere, all the time. I?ve felt bad for them because of how busy it was (even tho it was Thursday, don?t wanna imagine on weekends) and never saw them taking a break on my 2 and half hour visit. So consider that there may be some slow service because of that, they?re going to forget one thing or another, and some food (specially the ones they prepare) could probably take long to get to you, but just let your server know and they?ll check and give a solution right away. Please be mindful and considerate, they?re extremely busy and arguably tired, I?m sure they appreciate some help and a nice tip. Personally, my server was Tina, I heard lots of bad stuff about her on previous reviews but after my visit, I can say that they?re absolutely wrong. She was an extremely amazing and kind server, she was so helpful, professional, fast, grateful and was putting lots of work and attention to our table even tho she had like other 20 things to do at the same time. We really appreciated her help and great attitude, our best wishes to her and all the staff for making this a great family night. This is a 5 star for me, but to be honest I am biased. But even from a neutral perspective I?d give this place easily a 4/5. Be nice to the servers and they?ll be nice to you, as easy as that!

Single worst korean bbq experience ever. The meat they brought out was dry and brown around the edges. Looking like freezer burn. I was afraid to eat it. The soon tofu soup was yellow and looked horrible. I walked away. I'm really worried about the quality of the food. The outside of the building was really dilapidated and I was willing to overlook that but the food quality was as bad as the appearance. The kimchi also tasted really wrong. Like it had some sweet syrup in it. Save yourself the money and time and go somewhere else.

Felt like Korean again so picked a place as I drove by. Excellent food and service was pretty good except at the end I asked twice for the cold noodles but never got them. Oh well can't be perfect all the time. Would definitely come back again to try other options.
