Ijji 4 Korean Bar-B-Que

After a trip to Lake Tahoe I was in need of some food where I was craving for some Korean barbecue. I did my research and this place came up where it was nearby and looks good. I instantly knew I had to give it a try. Upon arrival, I came by a little before dinner and was seated immediately. I was greeted by their friendly staffs and asked what I would like to drink. They offer a la carte or all you can eat where you can choose up to four meats per a time. Also appetizers , small side dishes, soups and drinks are also included for the all you can order. And they have a few dishes that are only available during dinner time and of course I had to get them. My orders arrived to my table very quickly each time which was extra points. The grill they use is the metal circular pan style for easy change out. The food and service was great thank to their very welcoming, well trained and understanding staffs where I did not encounter an issue during my visit. As time went by, the place filled up and lines began to form. I am happy I arrived early and got to eat right away. I highly recommend this place to all Korean barbecue enthusiasts, if you need a quick bit me just like me or to anyone willing to try something new. I definitely will be back to tryout the other delicious options they have to offer.

Ijji 4 Korean Bar-B-Que – Fancy Vibes, Pricey BBQ Ijji 4 offers AYCE Korean BBQ in Reno, but the price has noticeably increased over the past few years—from $35.95 to $42.95 per person at night. While it’s definitely on the higher end, the restaurant does provide a more upscale dining environment, with stylish décor and even a fancy bar area stocked with wine options. One thing to note: AYCE requires at least two diners, so as a solo guest, I had to sit at the bar and order from the à la carte menu. I went with the Stone Pot Bibimbap, a mix of vegetables, beef bulgogi, and an over-easy egg served over rice in a sizzling hot stone bowl. While the crispy scorched rice from the pot was a nice touch, I found that even after mixing everything together, the flavors of the veggies, beef, and rice still felt somewhat separate. The sauce provided was on the salty side, leaving me reaching for water throughout the meal. The complimentary appetizers were a highlight, and to finish, they serve a free ice cream dessert. I tried the green tea flavor—delicious, but the scoop was small and left me wanting more. Overall, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is perfect for groups looking for a fancier K-BBQ night out. For solo diners, the experience is more limited. --- Final Thoughts Ijji 4 is a solid spot for group dining and Korean BBQ cravings if you don’t mind paying a premium. Great vibes, good service, and nice touches like dessert ice cream—but the rising prices and strict AYCE rules may leave some guests thinking twice. ---

I haven't had dinner here, but the cocktails are delicious and the bartender is very friendly. Plus, the place is perfect for a date night, and they also have good prices

This place is our absolute favorite! We have been coming here for over 10 years and the people they have working here have always been the best!!! The service and food quality is always unbeatable but tonight, man, I just had to write a review! It’s Valentine’s Day, we expected a wait, there was one to be seated but not terrible, we waited maybe 20-25 mins. But the rest of the dinner was just amazing! I figured we would be waiting a while in between service checks on us but NOPE! Isaiah was our server and he checked on us just as much as any other night! We never waited for our new meat orders or water. 10/10! Cannot recommend this place enough! 🤩🤩🤩

Wonderful experience! We visited with friends and were served with drinks practically as soon as we got the table. They checked on us constantly to take additional orders too. For context, the all you can eat is magical. Wide selection and fast service. We had a table of four and picked out a wide variety. We had a variety of chicken, the spicy chicken is amazing. Basil chicken .. bomb! Like pesto! Kobe beef was amazing. Pork belly, both special and seasoned was sooo good. Shrimp amazing! Also the ice cream at the end was just beautiful. Thank you so much Ijji for the wonderful experience!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at IJJ4 Korean BBQ in Reno for their Saturday lunch buffet, and I have to say—it exceeded my expectations in every way. For just $29.99, the value is unbeatable. The buffet offers an impressive selection of meats including marinated beef, pork belly, spicy chicken, and short ribs, all of which were fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly on the grill right at the table. Beyond the meats, they had a generous spread of side dishes—kimchi, pickled radish, japchae, steamed rice, and dipping sauces that complemented the BBQ beautifully. Everything tasted authentic and homemade, with attention to detail in both flavor and presentation. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, regularly checking in to see if we needed refills or help with the grill. The restaurant itself was clean, modern, and had a great vibe—perfect for a casual lunch with friends or a fun weekend outing. Overall, IJJ4 delivers a top-notch Korean BBQ experience at a very reasonable price point. I left full, satisfied, and already looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommended for anyone craving quality Korean BBQ in Reno!
