“ Place is usually open with tables and been a few times! The prices are but more than average but I'd say worth the value! Went with the Premium because how can you not get Ribeye steak! So good and great options! The Kalbi Ribs were also a MUST choice! Most of the meat does need some salt with each bite for more flavor but still really good! Don't get the shrimp - just trust. Service was not the best tonight but usually they are pretty quick, busy night for sure! As far as side options - they don't have too many which is definitely a downside and you do have to be mindful of time since it's 1hr 30min. Great location as well for dessert options afterwards! What to get - Ribeye steak, Kalbi Ribs, Teriyaki Chicken, Cheese Corn, Dumplings, EXTRA SAUCE Definitely still recommend! Great meat choices! ”

“ Generous portions, good quality meat, and staff were attentive. We arrived at 12PM on a Saturday and were one of the first guests. Kitchen was slightly slow, took about 10 minutes to get the meats. Once the meats arrived, the portions were more than expected. I would come back because they have a good selection of meats and sides at a great price for the Irvine/Tustin area. ”

“ Great experience. Won't break the bank but still delivers on quality. The menu's got all the essentials--no beef tongue or super fancy cuts, but they nail the basics like pork belly, brisket, and chicken. Shoutout to Jack, the manager, who was super friendly and accommodating. Will return. ”

“ Decent! And I was surprised! First of all, the price for AYCE is great. The quality of meats are above average, however the sides choices are meager but still tasty. The place is a little small, and understaffed, but they all did so well servicing us and it's quite busy last night. We did all the beef cuts, and it was delicious. Again the quality is very very good. Will definitely come back! ”

“ Wow! What an experience i had at zip! Went with the premium ayce, which is priced incredibly at $38!! They had all my favorite cuts of meat and then some! Beautiful cuts of brisket, prime short rib, marinated garlic sirloin tips, and massive jumbo prawns! The prawns were mini lobster tails! All fresh and absolutely tasty. My favorite of the night was the short rib, melt in mouth quality. Service was exceptional. Our server Raul was great attentive. He walked us through everything and even Cooked all of our meats. Ambiance is clean and nice - spacious, open layout with plenty of tables. They have tv screens that play cool music that sets the vibe! Well done Zip, My new favorite KBBQ in OC!! ”

“ Alright Zip after making a terrible business decision to get rid of AYCE, I'm happy to say it's back on the menu! It is now a much more limited ayce option but your staples like beef tongue and marinated boneless short rib are on there. Crazy to see there was only two waiters working and running the food but I think the place is still trying to figure how to cut costs. Overall though I will gladly revert my review back to four stars and give props to where it's due for bringing back the ayce options. Check this place out if you need a good kbbq fix! ”
