Roy Choi, the culinary innovator and advocate, is bringing limitless Korean BBQ to The Strip with the launch of All-You-Can-Eat (AYCE) Mondays at his Las Vegas concept, Best Friend inside Park MGM.

Guests entering Choi’s restaurant, a portal to the streets of Los Angeles, will be greeted at the table with an array of banchan including house-made kimchi, pickled daikon, and cold spinach along with a sharable salad and white rice. Diners can sink their teeth into limitless sizzling plates of Best Friend’s six flavorful meats – from the melt-in-your-mouth Spicy Pork to sweet and smoky BBQ Ribeye steeped in bulgogi marinade, to the vegetarian-friendly BBQ Veg with baby bok, carrots and long beans.

The Monday AYCE experience is priced at $65 per person and allows guests to choose two plates of BBQ at a time while providing the opportunity to mix and match for as long as their hearts and appetites desire. The feast concludes with a chef’s selection of a special Best Friend dessert for the table.

Best Friend also will feature half-off any sake and champagne magnums on Mondays.
