I usually prefer my beef medium rare, but it got mixed with the pork, so everything got cooked well done. If my beef was cooked medium rare, this would probably be a 5 star review. Sirloin Beef $39 AUD - Beautifully marbled. Marinated Beef Ribs $36AUD - This was good and had generous meat. We ordered too much meat, but amazingly we finished it all, so it had to have been really good. Cheese Corn Side Dish - Okay, too cheesy for me. I bet very few people say that, lol. Tofu Side Dish - I am not a tofu or soup person, so I did not try. They have both Korean and Australian beers, thank you. I chose to drink the local beers, as the Korean brand beers were the same as the U.S. Support locals. Atmosphere - Small local restaurant. Indoor/outdoor seating were very limited. Semi-open kitchen, see picture. You will be crammed in to maximize space. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 10:30pm. Not sure if they have bathrooms; sorry I can not remember and I did not take a picture. Service - Full service. They actually cook the food for you at your table. Both the owner and waiter cooked for us. I really appreciated that. But I am also sure they do that to turn the tables faster, good business practice. Win/win. Price - See menu, Korean foods are always a little on the expensive side, but when you take into consideration the current US exchange rate, it was a sale for us. :) Owner Comment - Congrats on your success.

Manna also offer a delicious deep fried chicken dish as well. If you want the full Korean experience though, Manna offer Korean Liquor as well as a small selection of reasonably priced Australian wine and beers. Go get the ribs, you won't be disappointed.

Anyway don't expect service to be super fast...it's usually just one person but she does the best she can do. The chefs come out from time to time and are super friendly, one time they brought out a glass of wine and spilled some on accident while pouring and we joked we get another one for free and then they did it! We weren't even serious. The Korean fried chicken here is great, the servings are massive and you can do half orders to try different flavours. The Soy is good and so is the Spicy, but the Spicy is more sweet than spicy. The hot pot is awesome, so I would recommend that as well. If you decide to get the Chilli Cheese Chicken...just be warned that it is VERY spicy...like to the point you're sweating and feel like dying. The side dishes are good and so is the seafood pancake, would recommend trying most of the menu. Don't forget to get some beer too to wash down the chicken.

The place doesn't look anything that special from the outside, and the inside decor is simple, but the food makes the experience spectacular. You're getting a Sydney CBD degustation menu at a suburban price. To top it off, I do believe the head chef (and owner?) of the restaurant came out and had friendly conversations at each table of guests. Something I have not seen before in Sydney! I'd recommend this place for a special night out with the family (or a special someone) in the shire. It's not cheap, but certainly value for money. Don't expect to leave feeling hungry. One the last dishes was a generous size piece of steak, which was quite a lot after all the smaller earlier dishes.... I will be back again.

The service was a little off -- one tissue napkin for a table of two (why?), basically tossed all the little banchan plates onto the table, and the bowl of miso soup could not have been more than 1/4 cup ... I mean, what's the point. Everything is all forgiven because the food was delicious. Food came out hot, flavors were balanced, and the carafe of ice, cold water was really nice (hey, I'm ready to please). Prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity. Give them a try.

There is a sign that points to this super shady alley way. But in the back of that is there Madang actually is. When you walk inside it's well lit so no worries! This place uses charcoal so you do get that flavor. We ordered the baby octopus to start. I thought it was good, just a lot of other stuff mixed in with it. As far as the BBQ we got the bulbogi and the galbi. Both meats are my go to when it comes to Korean BBQ. And this place did not disappoint, tender and flavorful. We got the tofu and seafood soup, it was packed with seafood. The service was prompt and this place stays open late!

It's a name that strikes fear into the heart of the enemy as you imagine Dukbaegi and the 46 other ronin charging furiously into battle screaming a chilling war cry... but... this is neither feudal Japan nor a blockbuster movie starring that bloke from Bill 'n' Ted's. It is, however, a relatively new and very good Korean BBQ restaurant. I had to ask fellow yelpers where I ate because this place needs a branding lesson (as in molten metal on cowhide). The menu doesn't have the name on it, instead you get a double dose of discombobulation as Korean characters co-mingle with the English words "Korean table", which just confuses the bejeezus outta me. In fact you'd be so hard pressed to find this place that I doubt anyone will ever see this review because they won't be looking for Dukbaegi. Hopefully my search engine prowess doesn't fail me now, and by entering the keyword *Makanai* which is the restaurant next door, we should see this result rise like cream to the top. So how was the food? It was delish, fresh and hot (temperature not spicy). The positives were the serving size and the sides - which consisted of little potato fritters, mini-mash, and miso soup. The downside was that it took a long time for food to come out despite the place being relatively empty. I had the BBQ Chilli Pork Hotpot and it was super tasty. It easily filled me up and I enjoyed every mouthful.

With so many seemingly yummy dishes on the menu I had a difficult time deciding what to eat. After narrowing it down to 2 choices I asked the waitress what she thought and she recommended the chilli seafood kalguksu if I liked spicy food. It was a great choice on a cold sydney autumn night. The soup was spicy and very flavoursome. My only complaint would be the chopsticks. Why do Koreans insist on using metal flat chopsticks? It makes it very difficult to use, especially with noodles. Dukbaegi is a welcomed addition to the chatswood food scene and a great replacement for where used to stand a sub par dessert house.

The charcoal cooking method gives a great taste as opposed to some of the more common electric burners. Don't let the entry fool you, you'll have to take the elevator up to the second floor to access this restaurant. Once you reach the second floor you'll be greeted by the friendly staff who will seat you immediately. While you progress to your table you'll pass by a showcase of varied meats a lot of which is Wagyu! The displays were clean and well organized surely to amp up your appetite. In a glass room you'll notice one of the chefs operating a meat slicer as the meat is cut fresh upon ordering. As I'm sure some of you Korean BBQ fanatics have experienced some restaurants have pre portioned frozen meats. Don't skimp out on this restaurant, the food quality is high so make the most of it! While honeymooning in Sydney my wife and I were on the hunt for "Yangnyeom Gejang". Neither my wife nor I are Korean but "Yangnyeom Gejang" is Spicy Marinated Raw Crab. If you've never tried it and are open minded seriously give it a try as its not readily available. The crab dish was extremely well portioned and makes for a great side dish/appetizer. The banchan was superb and you'll be offered a variety of side dishes to accompany your meal. Aside from the raw crab we ordered Wagyu Beef Tongue, Galbi, and Pork belly! All of which satisfied us and we were well satiated! Whether you're just visiting or a local resident I HIGHLY recommend Jang Ta Bal for your next Korean BBQ venture!
