Ari Korean Bbq - Carrollton

This restaurant offers a wonderful Korean BBQ experience, similar to what you'd find on the East Coast, specifically in NYC. It's not an all-you-can-eat establishment (aside from the side dishes), but the quality of the meat is exceptional, and the servers will cook your food for you. It's an excellent choice for both large and small groups. On weekends, the upstairs area features a bar, lounge, and balcony where you can enjoy a drink while you wait.

Tasty but dirty.I will bet they don’t know how to wash their dishes.Update: Ari serves low grade, in my opinion, beef. khalbi(rib) tastes nothing but chewy. If you taste rib from Costco you will know what I am saying. It used be dirty but served tasty meat but not anymore. Do not waste your money here.

I understand why this restaurant is so popular:1) great service (the waiters or waitresses grill the meat to perfection for you. Honestly want to call them grill masters the meat was so tender and juicy!)2) meat quality is high (to be honest we liked everything we ate but highlights below) our favorites was the short rib finger meat perfectly seasoned and tender and cooked super well followed by marinated short rib3) clean and plenty of side dishes that can be replenished when askedTip:1) Go during lunch no need for reservations. We went Saturday at opening which is 12 pm. Got a seat right away. If arrive at 1 pm, there'll be a wait. It filled up pretty quickly.Side note: smell was so delicious we were just happy being treated like a Korean bbq vip and eating so no pictures

Delicious food and great service.This Korean BBQ place is not AYCE. You pay for the meat you want. We got the Beef and Pork Combination Large, which comes with four different meats, several sides, and two soups. Unlike other KBBQ places, you don't need to cook your own food. The waiter comes by and cooked everything and cuts it up to nice, bite sizes. Food was really good and I always enjoy the steamed egg. Between the soups, I would say the soybean paste soup is the best. The place is great for big groups. Lots of tables, but expect a wait.

Very delicious!The servers help you grill your meat and cut them up for you. This is a very nice and friendly kbbq. There are air vents that helps with the smell of the smoke and it's a smart creation. We ordered the brisket, the spicy pork belly, spare ribs, the kimchi fried rice, and the regular pork belly. It was about 9 of us and our total was around $600.We were provided eggs, corns, and salads as part of the kbbq. I love coming here and will always come back.
