Master Kim’s Wagyu House Korean BBQ Opened at Palace Station

Black Angus, American and Australian wagyu, Japanese A5 wagyu, and Iberico pork delivered tableside via conveyor belt. Four tiers of all-you-can-eat barbecue. A dedicated vegan Korean BBQ menu. The city’s first steak omakase course from a KBBQ brand. Open until 3am every night. Master Kim’s Wagyu House opened July 26 inside Palace Station and it is the most ambitious Korean barbecue concept Las Vegas has seen yet.

The Local Favorite Just Leveled Up

Master Kim’s Wagyu House opened to the public on July 26, 2026, inside Palace Station Hotel and Casino, marking the premium evolution of Master Kim’s Korean BBQ, a brand that already had three locations across the Las Vegas Valley and was named one of Yelp’s Top 100 BBQ Restaurants in the US for 2026. Owned by Las Vegas restaurateur Freddy Hwang, the Palace Station location pairs the interactive, high-energy format that built Master Kim’s local following with a genuinely elevated wagyu program that puts it in a different category from standard KBBQ.

“Master Kim’s Wagyu House represents the next evolution of our brand,” Hwang said at opening. “We are bringing together everything our guests love about Master Kim’s, from bold Korean flavors and tableside grilling to an energetic, welcoming atmosphere, with premium wagyu, our first steak omakase course, and new technology. We look forward to sharing this next chapter with guests at Palace Station.” Scott Nelson, Vice President and General Manager of Palace Station, called it a fresh and distinctive dining option for the property, joining local dining favorites China Mama and Lindo Michoacán inside the Station Casinos-owned resort just off the Strip.

What Makes This Different From Standard Korean BBQ

The core format is familiar to anyone who has done Korean barbecue before: tabletop grilling, banchan, house-made sauces and marinades, and the social energy that makes KBBQ one of the best group dining formats available. What sets Master Kim’s Wagyu House apart is the meat program itself. The menu features Black Angus, American and Australian wagyu, Japanese A5 wagyu, and Iberico pork, cuts that most all-you-can-eat KBBQ concepts do not attempt to offer at volume. Master Kim’s is CAB-certified, meaning Certified Angus Beef standards apply across the beef program, and the restaurant sources upper choice to prime quality product throughout.

Sizzling wagyu, colorful banchan, and premium meat presentations arrive at each table via a conveyor belt delivery system, a detail that has become one of the most talked-about aspects of the new location. A dedicated vegan Korean BBQ menu gives plant-based guests full access to the tableside grilling format, a genuinely uncommon offering in the KBBQ category. And for guests who want something beyond the AYCE format entirely, Master Kim’s introduced its first-ever steak omakase course at the Palace Station location, letting the kitchen curate a progression of premium cuts for the table.

The Menu: Tiers, Prix Fixe Sets, and Everything In Between

The all-you-can-eat program runs across four tiers ranging from $28.95 to $69, with a maximum of five meats and 10 sides per ordering round and a 90-minute dining limit per table. For guests who want a curated experience rather than building their own AYCE rounds, three barbecue prix fixe meals are available. The premium set includes a choice of tofu soup, soybean paste soup, or kimchi stew; a choice of cold noodles, spicy noodles, hot beef noodle soup, or pasta carbonara; two wagyu nigiri; three sides; and five proteins including Iberico pork chop and American wagyu picanha (top sirloin cap).

Eight jungsik, or Korean table sets, are also available, including beef short rib soup with banchan small sides, a spicy chicken box meal, a spicy pork box meal, and L.A. kalbi served with cold or spicy noodles. More than three dozen sides are available across the premium, signature, and late-night menus, ranging from spicy beef tofu soup and cilantro salad to bibimbap, kimchi pancake, dumplings fried in wagyu tallow, and lettuce wraps.

Hours, Reservations, and What to Know Before You Go

Master Kim’s Wagyu House is open daily from 11:30am to 3am, one of the latest closing times of any serious dining option in the Palace Station or Strip-adjacent corridor. Reservations are available through SevenRooms or directly through palacestation.com. Given the 90-minute dining limit per table on AYCE orders, groups planning a full evening should book in advance, particularly on weekends. The restaurant is located inside Palace Station, a Station Casinos property just off the Strip, making it an easy add-on for anyone staying at a Strip resort who wants a genuine Korean barbecue experience without the resort pricing that comes with a Strip-address KBBQ concept.
