Iron Age

Meal: Dinner Day Visited: Thursday Budget: $50 Closest Station: Columbia Heights Reservation Needed?: No Payment: Cash; Credit Kid Friendly?: Yes Coming from Japan where we enjoy some great Korean Barbecue, we were a little concerned about Iron Age. Our expectations were exceeded. We enjoyed our meal and left happy. Fixed price buffet. Happy Hour from 3:00-6:00 PM.

We were visiting and decided to grab lunch at Iron Age with my sister's boyfriend, and wow- what a great choice! This all-you-can-eat KBBQ spot is an experience from start to finish. The grill was sizzling nonstop, the meats kept coming, and the sides made it feel like a full-on feast. What made it even better was the variety-being able to mix and match flavors and cook everything right at the table made it fun and interactive. We definitely didn't leave hungry (pretty sure we all hit that "just one more round" stage more than once). For a casual lunch, it turned into such a memorable experience, and I'd go back in a heartbeat next time I'm in town.

Iron Age in Washington DC is one of the best all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ spots around! 🥩🔥 The meat quality is great, the dipping sauces are delicious, and the service is fast and friendly. For the amount of food you get, the price is totally worth it. Highly recommend if you love KBBQ! 😋👌

A fine experience. Went there around 5 pm, was told to wait 5 min despite the restaurant being almost empty. The meat was good. Liked the salad WITHOUT the sauce. : )

Food: 9.5 out of 10 Service: 5 out of 5 Atmosphere: 4.5 out of 5 Price/Value: 4.5 out of 5 Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.7 out of 5 Recommendations: Beef Brisket, Pork Belly, Beef Bulgogi I was sooo happy to find out that there’s a kbbq within walking distance of my Airbnb! Iron Age is a big chain, but every time I go there I have the best experience. Their meats are so juicy and smell so good. The waiter was very attentive and frequently asked us how we were doing and whether we needed more meat. What’s even better is it’s only $32 per person for dinner, which is not bad at all for kbbq. Needless to say I will be their frequent customer in my last few weeks in D.C.!

Definitely 10/10...highly recommend. We went here on a Sunday and had a super short wait, maybe 5 minutes. After being seated the waiter took our drink order and explained how things work at the restaurant. We were able to order 2 meats at a time and we cooked them ourselves. The waiter would periodically come to the table to adjust the fire or cut up the meat/vegetables for us. We tried the lemon chicken thighs, garlic pork steak, spicy squid, and the Hawaiian bulgogi...everything was delicious, but the lemon chicken was my absolute favorite! The vibe and ambiance was nice too...I loved the music they were playing. The staff was super friendly. I had a great experience and can't wait to come here again!

Iron Age don’t disappoint, it’s always good and they serve you what they promise. About the service, it was all right, we weren’t even inside and the first thing they said was, "for party of four the gratitude is mandatory" which we considered kind of rude. The food was good and the atmosphere too.
