Brothers Restaurant, San Francisco, California Restaurant Details

Food:

After a while (a week) of not having Korean BBQ (KBBQ) and vacationing in San Francisco, I went to Brothers with family and friends for a really enjoyable experience.

We ordered chicken, beef, ribs, spicy squid, rice mix, omelette w/chives and seafood omelette and 2 Saporros just to sample what this place is really made of.

If you're used to KBBQ where the waitress does the all the grilling and other preparations of foods for you, you may not experience that. What I've never seen in a KBBQ place was the use of charcoal on the grill and unfortunately I overcook my own beef which was perhaps the most thinly cut I've ever seen in a KBBQ. The Chicken on the other hand was perfectly moist even though burnt on the surface. The soups and spicy squid was not too spicy nor salty and omelette was on the bland side which was perfect with the use of sauces. The mixed rice on the other hand felt a little too moist in consistency but the red sauce was perfect for taste. Kimchee was generous with turnips, bean sprouts, dried seaweed, cucumbers, potato and to finish the meal off, they provided a really nice cold sweet rice soup.

The bill totaling $190 for 8 people including alcohol is fairly inexpensive considering a similar KBBQ meal in Flushing, NY would have easily been the same price for 4-5 people. Much to our surprise, they threw in 2 clam tofu soups on the house.

This place is usually packed and you may have to wait if you didn't make reservations and it is not a fancy looking place though certainly a busy place.

Food:

You get to cook your own meat and vegetables on the grill that is embedded in the table. A great food, nice atmosphere, friendly staff for around $80 for two people buffet style (or you can just choose a dish for around $20) Loved It. Definitely recommend.

Food:

Great family-friendly Korean BBQ joint.... Affordable, good quality meat. The charcoal brings a neat atmosphere. While not truly outstanding, it is definitely my favorite in the neighborhood.

Food:

This is one of my favorite Korean places in the city. Their family style meals seem to be worth the price, but I mainly come here for the myriad of banchan side dishes. My brother and I came here after an event for dinner, and we were surprised at the number of side dishes that came out (16+). The food here is delicious, which is supported by the long lines that form at this place for dinner every time. Would highly recommend this place for family meals.

Food:

Truly authentic Korean food. Quality and number of 반찬s very good. 갈비 was tender and delicious. Priced a bit high, but worth it for good Korean in San Francisco. Will definitely return.

Food:

The possible flavor combinations are seemingly "endless" at this "authentic" Inner Richmond Korean BBQ joint where you "compose your own dinner over glowing coals" in the grill at your table; prices are "reasonable", and even though the "minimalist" digs can be "crowded" and your clothes may "reek of garlic" and "smoke", fans insist the experience is "worth it."
