Kimchi Korean BBQ is a korean bbq in Santa Barbara, California. It is listed at 3132 State St, Santa Barbara, CA 93105, which places it among the local businesses of Santa Barbara that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as restaurant, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
Portion sizes and pricing swing widely across this group, from a $10 lunch bowl to a multi-course tasting menu at an upscale sushi counter, so checking recent reviews and photos is more useful than the price range alone. In Santa Barbara, dinner reservations for popular izakaya, hot pot and Korean BBQ spots fill up on Friday and Saturday nights, so booking ahead or arriving at opening is worth it. Many restaurants across California run daily lunch specials on weekdays that are not listed on the dinner menu, so it is worth asking. Halal, vegetarian and gluten-free options vary a lot by kitchen; call ahead if you have a dietary restriction rather than assuming the menu will note it.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open 12–3:30 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (805) 845-2889. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.
Customers rate it 4.4 out of 5 on Google across 635 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded korean bbq in Santa Barbara.
Santa Barbara is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Santa Barbara follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Not only is the food incredible but the service is out of this world, all the workers are very polite and friendly. The experience is also very unique and fun, with the fact that you get to cook your own foods. The environment is very lively but cozy at the same time. You’ll have a very good time, while eating yummy food!!

Great service and happy atmosphere! We got the plantain meat selection with some of our favorites being the marinated beef rib finger (fatty and soft) along with the beef bulgogi/wagyu. Our waiter Carlos was extra sweet and made sure we had all we needed whether it be utensils, extra salt, and beef. He even took our order at the start (it’s mostly self-ordering via online selection using a bar code). There was another great worker at the restaurant named Fernando who was also happy to help out us and other customers as much as needed. Overall great vibes, great meat, and love the service! 10/10
