We visited Gangnam Korean BBQ with a party of 8 and had a really fun group dining experience. Making a reservation over the phone was easy, which was a great start. We ordered large combo options, the Try It All and Taste of Seoul, so we got to try a wide variety of dishes. Some of the standouts for us were the Korean popcorn chicken (super juicy), the fried dumplings, and the corn cheese. For the meats, we especially loved the LA galbi and bulgogi; they were both really well seasoned and flavorful. The rest of the meats were good as well, though nothing particularly stood out compared to other Korean BBQ spots we’ve been to. One fun touch was the kimchi fried rice, the server prepared it for us at the table and even shaped it into a heart and star, which was really cute. However, after making it, they left without really telling us that the rice was ready, and it also took a while to come out in the first place. Service overall was okay, staff were mostly friendly, but not particularly warm or attentive, and there were times when it was a bit hard to get someone’s attention. We’ve been to a few other Korean BBQ places, and one thing we missed here was having the grill changed out during the meal to keep the char from building up; something that usually helps keep the flavors fresh throughout. The atmosphere was lively and fun, especially with the big TV playing music videos; it was a blast singing along to some of the songs while we cooked and ate. Overall, a fun group dinner with good food and a lively vibe. Not the absolute standout among Korean BBQ experiences we’ve had, but still a solid place we’d consider returning to, especially with a group.
