Young`s Kalbee in Oahu

The owner is so nice and always know what we love to order. Food is great, prices are affordable. Our go to place for Korean grinds.

Yes to this place for there Meat Jun, Kalbi and BBQ Chicken. Located in Aiea Town Center right below the Anytime Fitness. You order first then sit down. I believe it’s a husband and wife team who make these amazing plates. I will say that everytime I go there it is crowded. Keep in mind, last good order taken is 7:20pm. The meat jun has a lot of flavor, it has also won Hawaii’s Best a couple time.

Great chicken katsu.

Best meat Jun.

Holy cow the meat jun is really good!

Hands Down, the best Meat Jun in town. They also have the authentic "Big Bone" Kal Bi along with the local short rib style. It costs more but oh so worth it to treat yourself. Food is always great and they always have the friendliest service. There's sometimes a little wait but it's a Mom & Pop Shop where the staff takes care of everything. Kind of a "if you want it done right, do it yourself" kind of place. There's only a few tables and they're usually crowded at meal times. I really don't mind the wait for what you get in both Quantity and Quality of food. This place is a must to have on your short list of local Korean fare.

I've been coming here for 9 years now and have never been dissatisfied. The food is consistently amazing. The owners are the staff and are really very nice. Kim always remembers my order and treats me like family when I come in. The meat Jun is their specialty and the sweet pickled radish...omg just hits that spot.

The best meat jhun and chicken katsu in town. Checkum out!!

Chicken Katsu is great. I usually get the meat Jun combo.

This is mom and pop shop in Aiea. They have been around for years and definitely my favorite in the area. The quality of their meat is definitely top notch. My favorite is their meat jun plate. Warning.. It is a bit pricey here. I believe approximately $16 for my plate but I guess you get what you pay for. The give a decent amount of food and it comes with the sides you see in the pic. All of their other items on the menu are pretty yummy too.

This business is the epitome of a family run business and home feel. The food was delicious and the staff super kind. I will go back here again and again value and staff and food is all unbeatable.

Food always consistent, meat jun voted best in Honolulu by ITV several years back. Kim chee "soup" a favorite when it's windy and rainy. I mostly do take-out, never been disappointed!

Large portions and flavorful but a bit too much on the sweet side so a bit weird to have that on the kalbi

One of the best Korean food on the island. Gotta try this place.

Korean food done right. Loved their kal-bi short ribs.

It was busy but it was worth the wait. Food was awesome as usual.

Best Meatjun & kalbi.

Great food with a no nonsense atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Absolutely delicious and the staff is very friendly. Good portions too

I love this place, it's convenient, fast, the kal bi is broke da mout, and the woman running the register is so nice and friendly.

This place was great very friendly and the food is AWESOME

Top 3 meat jun on Oahu for sure. Great meat and good sauce. Fried mandoo is delicious. Love the thick chewy dumpling skins. Prices are reasonable and serving sizes are large.

Everything here is great. Best mandoo on the island.

This is the best Korean BBQ in Hawaii. One of the reasons I go to Hawaii. The Kalbi is spectacular.

We ordered 8 plates and all of the plates were perfect!!! In addition, the plates are huge and really DELICIOUS!!!

One of the best ever. They never disappoint. My favorite place to get Korean food and vegetables. Yes, the restaurant is small and parking can be a pain but we solve that by always getting take out. The family is awesome and treat you like family too, so be nice. Everything the make makes my mouth water and no matter where I am in the world all I can do is compare other Korean food to Young's Kal Bee.

My Favorite Meat Jun place....

You have no idea how delicious this mom and pop place is. Not cheap, but totally worth it.

10 out of 10!!! Best meat jun ever!!! Amazing service too!!!

Craved kalbi... This place exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend it

Best Local Style Korean food in Hawaii. It's a small little husband and wife run shop, so service isn't always at your beck and call, but they work hard and the food is beyond compare. It's not a "pick your 4 banchan" kind of place, but what you get is yummy. They have bean sprouts, cabbage and seaweed for takeout and if you eat in they add kimchee and a pickled radish that is my ultimate favorite banchan above anything else anywhere else. They won best meat jun multiple times and their chicken katsu is winnahs. I haven't had anything there I didn't like. Portions are plentiful, but I do run out of rice sometimes. As long as you can stand not being waited on like a princess, you'll love Young's.

Young's Kal bee is excellent. They wait is 20 minutes, but worth it because the food is good.

Best food on island and large portions.

Meat Jun was the best I have ever had!!!

I went there the other day I had the small bone kal bee bone Meat chun combination . I forgot to tell them big bone. That was my fault but that's alright the food and service was great. I will go there in a couple of weeks to order the Big bone combination.

Very good Korean food, especially daikon side dish

Delicious food with generous portions and reasonable price with friendly staff. However, there were German cockroaches roaming in the dining area and kitchen.

The food here is just amazing!! BEST Meat Jun I have ever had!! BEST Kalbi I have every had!! Seating and parking here may be limited during peak times. Owner is really nice with a friendly attitude. Love the flavors here!!

Best Korean food and serves good

Lunch specials give you a lot of tasty food for a reasonable price. Plenty for 2 of us.

I've eaten a lot of meat jun in my life and still this day Young's Kal Bee makes the best, you don't even need the sauce it's so good.

Good little nook for authentic Korean cuisine

Best meat jun on the Island. The kalbi beef is also good. Little on the sweet side but still ono. Little mom and pop Korean bbq restaurant. Only a few tables. If doing carry out suggest calling ahead as meals can take a while to come out. Eating there can also take a bit of time to but is well worth the wait.

OMG! I never thought i couldd find a korean bbq that taste better than my mom's sauce!

Their food here is delicious!!! Family run small business. Meat jhun and kalbi awesome

Best food in Hawaii!!

I still think this is the best place to get your Meat Jun fix! YUM! My favorite, and the dipping sauce is to die for!! Gets crowded fast when lunch rolls around!

Kalbi and Meat Jun was very good. Shrimp was a disappointment so much tempura made shrimp look huge when actually pretty small and still had veins in....

The best meat Jun I love their food in general

I give this place two thumbs up! It would be three if I had another thumb... Very ono!
