Sushi was good; soup was bad. The reason for 1 star is the attitude. We are a group of 7, ordered roughly $170 of food. They served 11 small dishes of Korean appetizers. When we asked for refill, they just provided the refill WITHOUT informing us that we will be charged $2 per dish refill. We have never been to or heard of any Korean restaurant that charge money for appetizer dishes. During checkout, we asked the waitress “it does not make sense to have the same number of small dishes regardless of the number of people. The table next to us only has a group of 3, but they have the same number of appetizer dishes. “. The waitress responded, “did you count how many dishes they have?” What information are you trying to extract from us? Did you really think we would stand next to their table and count? I asked “if I come alone and only ordered a tofu soup, will I get 11 small dishes?” The waitress said, “ of course not. You’ll only get 3 or 4”. So will I get 3 or 4? Which 3? How do you know which 3 I want? At the end we left 10% tip, and we really regret about it. Leaving 10% makes them think we’re stingy. What we should do is to just leave our 2cents. Please assume we did not leave any tip, and here’s our answer to your question, “no, we did not count how many dishes they have. But now you can count how much tip we left”.
Use to be good, now it's just a shadow of what it use to be. Quality & service is way down, yet prices have gone up. Staff seems to not care anymore. Honestly not worth the money, time or parking fee. Sure they're open late, but meh go spend your hard earned money somewhere else cause this place isn't it anymore. Parking: Free street parking after 6pm if not park at the mall garage its free all day about a 5 minute walk.
This is a Japanese - Korean combo restaurant. Do not order Korean food here. There’s no bbq grill on the table so all the grilling happens in the kitchen. The grill is dirty, so the meat comes out extremely burnt. 70%+ not edible. There’s no banchan and you can taste the msg in the food in general. The worst is the pricing — it’s one of the most over priced menu I’ve ever seen anywhere.
Korean soup is usually my comfort food, and I ordered a Kimchi Jjigae from this restaurant for the first time and this soup is VERY VERY SWEET and I could barely eat. It’s supposed to be spicy and I have never tasted a Kimchi soup that is sweet. I was so disappointed since the food was packed so well.
I'm so addicted to Korean food. And this place is the right place to get it!
We went to eat this Korean restaurant after a Christmas concert. It was our first time. My husband ordered Dol Sot Bibimbap and I ordered Pahjeon (Korean pancake). His Bibimbap’s sauce (Gochijang) was watery and too sweet. His bibimbap had almost no taste. This is very simple food but the chef does not understand the taste? My Kimchi Pahjeon’s sauce was not good. I was wondering maybe the chef does not understand Korean foods. Our waitress was friendly but when I asked for a small bowl for Bibimbap, It took nearly 15 minutes to get, we were almost finished eating. . I am Japanese and perhaps we shouldn’t have ordered Korean food. The lantern lights were dusty. Maybe the Health Department should check this restaurant. We were very disappointed with this restaurant. We will not be back again and can not recommend it.
Fun spot with amazing staff that really make sure you are enjoying yourself! We tried both the sushi and the Korean BBQ and everything was super yummy! Can’t wait to come back!
The food and service are good, but overpriced.
I visited HanBul Korean BBQ for lunch on the weekend, and it left me with mixed feelings. On the positive side, we were seated fairly quickly, and there was decent room at the tables, although the overall layout felt a bit cramped for walking. Unfortunately, the decor didn't leave much of an impression, and the restaurant seemed crowded. We opted for the Bossam, which includes pork belly, cabbage wraps, and oysters, along with Korean side dishes and tofu soup. Regrettably, the food was only okay, and the cabbage wraps were disappointingly soggy and ice-cold. I must also mention that the oysters had a rather fishy taste, which was quite off-putting.
