AB Steak by Akira Back

The Michelin-starred, Korean culinary master has bought his culinary creativity, and blend of Japanese fare with Korean essence to LA's Beverly Center.

The Korean-American chef (a former professional snowboarder) has built up a successful empire of restaurants from Las Vegas to Jakarta and Toronto to Bangkok with his self-described menu of modern Japanese food with Korean accents -  derived from seasonal produce and artisanal ingredients. The Korean steakhouse concept, which debuted in Jakarta in 2017, has outlets slated for San Francisco, Dallas, and Boston. 

This unique Korean-American barbeque concept features a “chamber” dedicated to dry-aging meat up to 120 days. Additionally, the menu also includes a vast selection of domestic and imported beef and homemade Korean-inspired salts and sauces to enhance the flavor and a selection of side dishes - Pacific shrimp with gochujang or uni-topped marinated shrimp over smoked sweet potato foam. Each table is equipped with smokeless charcoal grills so dinner can be cooked by diners themselves.
