Top Chef Korean BBQ: A Culinary Haven in Simi Valley

The chef clearly values flavor and creativity. Each dish told its own delicious story.

A buddy of mine and I decided to check this spot out because we were craving Korean barbeque and it was right down the street from us. What a hidden gem! We did the all you can eat lunch special and the food was delicious with large portions. The decor is really nice and you don't feel greasy like most places (must have good ventilation). The ladies who took our order we're super sweet, sometimes going out of their way to assist with the cooking when we were not paying attention to the grill. We will definitely have to come back!

This is the best Korean barbecue restaurant in Simi Valley.$33 for basic all you can eat and $45 for premium choice. Among the many meats, beef brisket and short rib was the best. Spicy chicken was so juicy and tender. The best part was that I could taste a lot of meats. And everything was delicious. If you want to taste a lot of meats, you can order a half order. If you haven't visited yet, I highly recommend you to visit.

High quality meats, excellent service, friendly staff. This is a great place for k bbq for lunch or with a group. All you can eat $29.95. All you can eat seafood $39.95 They also offer prepared dishes $15-20. Highly recommend, will be back.

The atmosphere is spacious and clean. The service was really quick and they were flexible with our party of 11. Half of us had AYCE and the other half had a la carte dishes, and they were really accommodating. We had the general AYCE, all the meats and banchan (sides) were fresh & delicious. They did not skimp/cheap out on the meat and gave us huge platters. The beef short rib is thick and delicious. They were helpful when we were ordering as well. The soondobu and udon were good, so they are very well rounded for whatever you order. Definitely recommend!

The service in this place USED to be lack luster. That has completely changed. The staff here are incredibly friendly now, and helpful. We even received a free special without reason. Top chef is easily the best all you can eat BBQ place around. Try their spicy pork or miso pork belly!

I had a great experience here…first time. I had the AYCE A ($29.95). So many choices of beef and pork and 4 choices of chicken. Also included are appetizers (anything marked with A), rice, banchan, and salad. I also ordered sesame oil with salt & pepper for seasoning cooked items. Our table ordered: Beef: bulgogi, brisket, belly, jumulreok, top blade Pork: belly Full orders of bulgogi and brisket were massive! After that we ordered 1/2 orders so we could try more. We also had Japchae (clear noodles), radish wraps and Korean pancakes, which all were tasty. Heated up the pancakes because they come cold and cut in pieces. Service was very friendly and not too difficult to get their attention. I like the atmosphere and the place was nice for a rainy day. I would come back.

I think this place used to be called Top Chef. Still the same people. If you want Kbbq style this is the best place around all of Simi and surrounding areas!! Definitely must try!
