Fresh delisious cuts of meat no one leaves here feeling hungry.
There is something for everybody!

It's a bit disappointing. Vegetables are not fresh. Sake served me only half, and it tastes like mixed with water.

The front of the shop advertised 60 minutes for the buffet but when we were seated the waiter said it was only 40 minutes. 40 minutes at a buffet is ridiculously short even for a regular restaurant given that we have two young children as well. They charged the kids at adult prices, which I’ve never seen at a buffet before. Most of the food was stale and cold. When our 40 minutes were up the waiter basically kicked us out by giving us the receipt and said our time was up.

Wonderful AYCE. The food was fabulous. If I could I would willingly give them a 6 star review instead. The place was clean and bright, and the lighting was excellent.
Went there with some friends and it was their special winter special, so instead of paying around $50pp we were paying $40pp
We also had some non-alcoholic drinks, quite intensive, I would have thought it would just be soft drinks but they had many Korean soft drinks as well.
Definitely come here again.

The service was incredible. The staff was so attentive and made for a very enjoyable night. The food was great! They offer a great range of quality meats and sides. Plus dessert on the way out from an attached icecream bar? Yes please.
Overall, fantastic value for money, and I would definitely eat again.

The food is pretty delicious, especially the fresh meat. Best place for having dinner with friend or couple.

Great bubbly friendly customer service. Average food quality, Had a good selection of meats and seafood. The marinated meats were not so great tasting except the chicken. Salad bar, loads of condiments, sushi, soups and rice. Has some western dishes like pasta etc. Whilst it has a broad selection, I would still place this is the cheap and cheerful category.

Amazing service and great prices! Awesome vibe and food! Really loved the manager/owner, super friendly!

I came with family on last Sunday. They have full range of choices for the meat. Hot food also tastes good. Will come back.

All you can eat buffet on table BBQ, A bit lacking it seemed as though the meat was frozen and did not have a fresh taste, the other buffet items were kind of boring and not very Japanese. There was a taco station. They offered to change our grill plate very often which was nice. Higher price tag then Okami and definitely not a better food journey.

3.5 stars

An all you can eat Korean BBQ restaurant with a buffet style wall.yes it’s all here!

From a range of buffet items including noodles, rice, stir-fry and fried chicken to a selection of meats (lamb, pork belly, wagyu etc) which can be cooked to your likings. This restaurant delivers two concepts in one. Let’s just say, you won’t leave without feeling full!

New to their restaurant was also a taco making station and boba making station. A very fun concept especially if you have kids. A lot of food options for friends and family to enjoy!

KBBQ is always a winner and AYCE takes it to a whole new level.

Located in Footscray with spacious seating and an extensive variety of food, @hanzobabekyu is well set up for success.

Here is what you can try:
Make your own bibimbap - all the classic ingredients like spinach, kimchi, carrots etc
Do you feel like 2 minute noodles? Make yourself some ramyun. This is so cool and I would have had more if there wasn't so many other dishes to try
Cold soba noodles
Sushi
Extensive array of hot food from japchae, bulgogi and KFC - their fried chicken hits well.
2 varieties of soup
Cold salad and condiments
And of course fresh and marinated meat (chicken, angus beef, pork and lamb) and seafood (squid, scallops and prawns)

And the fun part is grilling the food at your table. Just a wonderful experience!

Thanks to Mario and his team at @hanzobabekyu for your generous hospitality. ️

The quality of the meats was very below average. As well as the quantity. For an "all you can eat" they only put out small selection of of meats in small quantities meaning you were constantly waiting for refills as soon as another group went first.

The service however was quite good and the staff were very friendly.

Food Quality was a letdown - beef was pretty chewy, kimchi had no seasoning at all.and the rice was so hard and dry, takoyaki was freezing cold, I could go on.
Literally got up and left after 30 mins.to a bill of $105. What a joke, me and my partner were literally laughing all the way home on how ridiculous the price relative to the food quality was and at least we now have a hilarious story to tell others.
But yeah, just drive the extra 10 mins and go to one of the many good kbbq buffets in the city.

Good quality meats especially for the price tag. Definitely an affordable place for AYCE and super tasty too. The eggplant and tofu were a tad too salty but other than that everything else was amazing

Once over the confusion on the ordering system I really enjoyed this restaurant. High quality food and great flavours. Highly recommended.

If you love Japanese Food and BBQ, don’t miss this!
They have lots of choices and so worth it!

Tried their sashimi’s platter for appetizer, they’re fresh
As well as the meat’s platter! So juicy and well marinated?
Love the idea of cheese on Scallops
Also got their assorted side dishes such as Takoyaki! So yummm!
The Eggplant was so good!
Nothing special with the Karaage but their Tofu! So addicting

I was there a month ago, I won’t go back again because bad service with a guy with glasses. He put down the plate very hard look like no patient. The food is slow we order and food no come.

Oh my. This place worths a higher rating! Food is so fresh and good variety. Reasonably price. Enjoyed the house sake as well. Good vibe and friendly service!

Good seating layout, spacious and has that overseas dining vibe.
QR ordering from table, but pay at counter after meal.
I ordered a Katsu Curry which indicated it didn't or would not come with onions.
As you can see by pics, covered in onions.
To top off, the bottled drink had expired.
