Yanji BBQA-
153 Bethnal Grn Rd, London E2 7DG
· Korean barbecue restaurant, Barbecue restaurant, Chinese restaurant
· Tower Hamlets
Fun self-rotating charcoal skewers with solid Korean soups and sides; great for groups, generally friendly service, moderate prices, but some waits and occasional inconsistency on delivery orders.
Why this grade
Yanji BBQ delivers solid A-grade performance through exceptional food quality—particularly lamb and beef skewers and galbi-tang—paired with strong service attentiveness and knowledgeable staff guidance. The interactive self-rotating skewer experience and good value proposition make it competitive with the area's better neighborhood restaurants, though occasional consistency variation in delivery orders and peak-time waits prevent it from reaching grade A territory.
One caveat: Occasional long waits during peak times, especially for some soups
