I came here today with my family. There weren't many customers there when we got there, so the employees were very accommodating. For food, we ordered the seafood kimchi pancake. It was so crispy and delicious, had an amazing crunch. Secondly, we got the beef stirfry with egg and rice(my brother finished it.) Their purple rice is actually very unique as they added chickpeas to it. Additionally, we also got some seafood rice cake and pork belly hot plate with onions. This dish was quite possibly the worst because there weren't many pieces of meat. Anywho, the ambiance was warm and inviting. As for the price, I did find it a little too steep. I'd come back one day to try their lunch menu. read more

This restaurant serves lots of delicious side dishes! My friend and I were very surprised. We each ordered a lunch combo. You can choose between white and purple rice. I only wish the tofu soup was spicy. Besides that we had quite a feast here. It was clean and the service was excellent. FYI we only spoke to the servers in Korean. read more

Staff and service were totally fine, but note that it may lag when the place gets busy; the place does get packed quickly! +all the KBBQ meats +good service +can become super busy read more

A little neighborhood gem. The meat is always fresh and the service is friendly. It's a small place and there's meter parking in front as well as their own smaller lot in the back. read more

Korean BBQ perfection! From the sizzling galbi to the savory pajeon (Korean pancake), flavorful bibimbap, chewy japchae, and tender steamed pork belly -- every bite hit the spot. Authentic flavors, generous portions, and that perfect smoky grill aroma made it a truly satisfying meal. read more

Biwon is one of our goto K-BBQ spots because the food is legit. But folks, remember, this place gets pretty busy... when it does, you'll experience some delays. The meat, it's always going to be good! So when it's busy, ensure to balance your order of BBQ's and kitchen items accordingly. read more

Came here on a Wednesday night at 7pm. not packed at all. Sat straight down and ordered. they have a small parking lot but they back entrance is straight there. Overall a pleasant experience. We ordered the eel and short rib for bbq and the seafood pancake(L). note the eel is not the whole eel looks like half and they didnt even kill the eel in front of us. Overall came out fast. Wish they gave us lettuce with the short rib. Its was wrapped right next to table. and they gave us rice but at the end of the meal which i thought was strange but chances are they forgot. Price wise it was expensive for just two people and two meats. Its was close to 150 with tip and tax. We had to ask for tissues and tea as they really kept it tight with what we used. Love the fact that everything was cooked with charcoal and not gas. Overall if I had a bigger party I would come back. Overall the restaurant was tidy and clean. read more

Bi Won - Eel and Korean galbi - Korean Near Me - Oakland Gardens, New York

Bi won used to be a staple even for those who aren't Korean. Lately the service has been horrendous. I've been coming here for well over 10 years from when they first opened but the service to NON Koreans is straight up garbage, it's Queens. It's literally a melting pot and since recently coming here (4x since the year started to be exact. They have a short fuse and attitude if you're of another culture. I ask for extra kimchi which is nothing with free apps and the waitress looked at me crazy-i was so reserved with asking for anything else. I had pork belly and marinated galbi. Do better Bi won! Just because I'm black doesn't mean I can't LOVE korean bbq read more

Bring your appetite! In addition to all the deliciously marinated BBQ meats, they are generous with their large selections of banchan. 2 types of Kimchi, fish cakes, marinated lotus roots, steamed eggs, congee, and tofu stew, a cold pork salad with an amazing sauce, and many more banchan I can't recall at this time cause there was so many. I only took a few pictures because once the meats came out, I forgot to snap more pictures. We had pork belly, Galbi beef, cubed beef, marinated pork, and seafood pancake. I did not leave the restaurant smelling like BBQ so kudos to their exceptional venting / hood duct system. The staff made the meal special with their warm and friendly manners. Diligently grilling and cutting our meats for us. Worth a trip for fantastic Korean food with fantastic service. read more

Came here with my sister at 2pm, not a busy day. Stood in the front for host to sit us or someone to greet us and the wait staff just stared at us and ignored us. 2 Korean men came in after us and they walked in to the back and got a table and was served with water and menu meanwhile were watching this all happen while we're still standing waiting in the front and being ignored by staff. We stayed 10min too long and just walked out. If you're non Asian I would proceed with caution to such establishment. read more

My last review was 11 years ago. The update would be I live here and this is the taste of home. My favorites would be the kalbi table bbq, the shrimp & the eels and I also love the spicy marinated crab, the beef soup, the chicken soup the seafood pancake... all the sides there hasn't been one bad thing I've ordered here over the years. Service is generally good, even with the language barrier. Sometimes there might be a minor miss, but never anything of a huge issue. The decor hasn't changed in a decade though. Ok but come here, you won't regret it read more

I was there with my family to celebrate a birthday, but this was a very mid experience at best. The servers were either overwhelmed or almost rude(the guy), the food was tasteless and the cups and plates were dirty. The lady said the night before was really busy, but that really has nothing to do with me to accept or tolerate. The restaurant was also pretty cold and I don't just mean the temperature. I will not go back. read more

Best place for bbq eel. The eel can be grilled with teriyaki sauce, spicy gochuchang or plain with no sauce. I love them all 3 ways. I'm definitely coming back for this. I had it in Korea and this is pretty close to the bbq eel there. Service is excellent and friendly. read more

Been here a few time. Food was good per usual. But service was weird this time. Had a older lady serve us. Went there with 6 people she only gave us 2 sauces. I asked her can I get a few more sauce she looked at me weird so I asked her is it not one sauce per person? Because that's how they do it in the surrounding kbbq restaurants. She said no it's 1 sauce per 2 people. So I told her okay even if it's 1 sauce per 2 people, we're still missing sauce. We had 6 people, and why would I want to share sauce with someone? So I said can you bring 3 more sauce, she came back with 2. And then she kept pouring our tea into the grill and leaving the cup empty, never seen that before but at least refill the tea after you pour it out? Then she went missing, so I had to go hunting for her to get the bill read more

My family and I have come here often as we lived in Bayside for 10+ years now and we loved their variety of banchans and it's different each time we come. The food and service has been great too. However we went to eat there last week after coming back from the airport. When we were almost done eating, I saw a roach crawling on my son's side of the table. Luckily it didn't touch the food and the waitresses were horrified and killed it and informed us that they did some pesticide control recently and may be coming out. So already squeamish on that already - we wanted to hurry up and finish and got the check so we can leave until I felt something on my leg and I thought it was just all in my mind. I just shook my leg to shake off the thought and my son said he sees one on the floor by my foot. I jumped and leaped onto the booth. The waitresses, horrified even more and apologized profusely. But still charged us in full and offered nothing after seeing two roaches and unable to finish our meal. A discount doesn't justify what happened but I'm not sure of doing nothing other than saying sorry helped and would make me want to go back and not think about the roaches again. read more

This is definitely one of the most authentic Korean barbecue places I've been to and I've visited a handful, the food was delicious service with a smile great ambience. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for an authentic Korean cuisine experience. read more

Food was below average, lacking in flavor for it to be expensive Service was ok. I asked the waitress for water and she told me there was tea in my water. She prompted me to eat an appetizer i did not like 5 minutes after receiving our food they asked if we are splitting the bill or paying together as if the bill is not even at the end of the not satisfied. All the thumbs down read more

Korean bbq Table side. Beef rib, pork belly, eels. Live eel wells. Good service and good banchan imo. We go here often. There decent parking which is a plus. The owner is on site coordinating and makes sure it's for well. read more

Quality of food went down a lot in this place. We have been a few time before but haven't been for over a year, went back last night for a birthday dinner. The meat tastes bad and dry, very hard to chew. My kids said the worst Korean food they had. The seating was very uncomfortable in the party rooms, no leg-room. read more

In the mood for KBBQ but wanting to avoid the weekend crowd in Flushing, we paid a visit to Bi Won in Oakland Gardens. Ambience: Nice average KBBQ decor, with the vent hoods that drop down right over the grill to reduce the smoky stench on your clothes. Food: this is NOT and AYCE, which is great because the quality of the meats tend to be higher. We ordered a combination that included prime ribeye, brisket and marinated short ribs. To my delight, they use REAL CHARCOAL to cook the meat at your table, not propane! Meats were grilled to perfection. As is customary with most Korean BBQs, they give you a large complimentary assortment of cold appetizers. If you are into soups, don't forget to order the Kalbi Tang, its rich and heavy broth that really hits the spot on cold days. read more

I had gone here with my daughter and her friend (her friend was Korean, me and my daughter are Chinese) her friend ordered in Korean and made a simple grammar mistake in Korean and fixed it immediately. The workers talked and talked bad about us in Korean, we came at almost 9 and they were going to soon close. They said in Korean that my daughter's friend's Korean was horrible and how she was probably a foreigner. I will say the food was good with a cozy vibe, but the workers had said multiple rude things about me, my daughter, and her friend. read more

There is no bells and whistles with this KBBQ place, it is straight to business with the meals, sides, stove, and service. We are glad to see the health score is labeled an A because a place close by which we used to go to dropped to a C and we don't go there anymore. The service was super fast, the food was good quality, the portion sizes were decent, it was nice of them to serve us a scallion pancake as an appetizer for our first time; and we got one of the inclusive packages. Prices were a bit high for the double date dinner we had, and I wasn't much of a fan of the interior, but friendly staff and a good time. 4 stars, probably won't return though. read more

Our first time at Bi Won, checking out place to bring my sister, this place passed with many high notes, unique yummy bunchan, kalbi, spicy raw crabs, and seafood soybean paste soup. I highly recommend everyone to try them all. We had very attentive helpful service from all the servers and enjoyed the upscale interior spaces. We definitely recommend this restauan read more

I won't recommend my friends to come here since the beef is too chewy. Also there are more reasons First, the menu doesn't make sense AND the staff is not smart. I told the staff I order D.14 and seems she doesn't understand English well. She needs to double check what D.14 is in Korean. I order the same dish 4 times and finally she ask someone else to help us. Is that so difficult to order one dish? And then I found out there are two dishes in same number D.14, that's why that person get so confused. Second, we ordered Beef Combo but the beef is soooo chewy, very hard to bite. Third, all the rest dishes are just ok, not surprising, some of them even taste bad, for example, the COLD NOODLE is chewy and raw, The spicy pork rice is too salty. Btw, the Cold noodle came at very last moment and only came when I want to cancel the order. The best dish in here is the free roe rice. It was really good AND I ate three bowl. Overall, Around $60/each person it's not worthy. read more

We went to BiWon for dinner the other night and had a good meal. Be prepared for the tiniest parking lot you've ever seen. The Korean BBQ was very good and the sushi I had was good. One should probably get either over having both. My only complaint would be paying the prices we did and eating with plastic utensils and drinking with plastic glasses. read more

First of all the service is amazing they were very tentative on our food and prepared everything for us. The ambiance felt very cozy like a family restaurant and was an enjoyable experience. The food tasted amazing, We got: Beef combo deluxe Mini cold noodles (spicy and normal) Seafood pancakes * The beef combo deluxe was able to feed all 5 of us and we were full towards the end. * The mini cold noodles were enjoyable to eat at the end after everything which was soothing * The seafood pancakes had a very crispy exterior and a soft chewy interior which was nice. read more

I came here for a company dinner and my boss went all out as you can see. The quality of eel was so good it's so fresh they take it out of the live eel tank. We also ate marinated galbi which is also good I love the charcoal flame gives it extra fire flavor. We also ordered a whole beef platter which honestly was my favorite part. The quality and flavor was amazing service was also great the lady made sure we were taken care of and the restaurant owner was also super nice and gave service soju XD. Ambiance could use some work I kinda wish they had some music playing or something but other than that it was amazing read more

We had lunch at BiWon with the wife, looking for some good Korean food. I was looking forward to this since I was on my usual morning intermittant fast! The restaurant has plenty of parking in the rear and metered along Springfield Blvd. The place has been there for over 20 years, but we weren't there for the ambiance, just the food. We ordered the seafood and scallion pancake for appetizer. The marinated beef ribs and the spicy marinated pork for entree's. Both dishes were served hot and mildly spicy. All were very good! Standard appetizers, which accompany good Korean restaurants were served and were all fresh (especially the two types of kimchi) and plentiful! Can't remember the last time that I cried 'Uncle' for the appetizers never stopped coming! Service was quick and attentive. The rice tea was hot and refreshing. I look forward to coming back to this great family restaurant. Give it a try! read more

Excellent yummy food especially kbbq and attentive kind service. We'll be back! Thank you!

Korean bbq I want to eat galbi eel, and when I go to Bayside, I always go to Biwon, a restaurant I go to. I think cabbage kimchi, young radish kimchi, samgyetang, New York is the best for my taste. I enjoy it and go to my hometown. The best service is also good read more

We decided to give Bi Won another shot with delivery, and it was a positive experience. Our dishes were spicy as promised by the description, and the dishes had ample amount of protein. The Jukkumi Samgyup Chulpan (pork and mini octopus) was hearty. It didn't need as many onions, but it was great with the egg and side rice. The Yookgejang soup was perfect for someone who is trying to get over being sick. I'd skip the mandu gui dumplings; they were over fried and not particularly interesting. Great menu options! read more

We live nearby and would usually walk there....the mgrwas always very warm and friendly....the food was excellent and the service good but not exceptional....then for some reason the service was terrible....the last few times there no effort was made to cook the galbi nor did they check on our table or refill our water glasses.... I began to wonder if our business was no longer sought...we were always polite and generous with our gratuities......I am Caucasion and my wife is a Filipina....

After you order the servers bring a variety of ban chan which were all pretty good. We ordered the non-bbq stuff and the spicy pork on the sizzling stone platter was juicy and was not that spicy. I would recommend moving the egg off the platter when you get it and onto the rice unless you like eating egg crust and flakes. If you get the Kalbi tang they cut off the meat from the bones which is nice so you don't have to look like a barbarian getting the meat off yourself. The meat itself lacked flavor and was very chewy. They did not cut it that clean and there were small broken pieces of bone which were a little annoying but was whatever. The broth was really really rich and meaty though. The disappointment was the meat itself not being able matching up. read more

As soon as you walk in the smell of smoke and bbq will hit you. You will definitely leave smelling smoky. We got soondubu jigae and the galbi combo for 2 and the total was $160+ tip. Definitely on the expensive side. The combo came with 3 different meats, steamed egg and soup. The food was delicious. Good quality meat, soft, juicy and flavorful. The soondubu was kind of disappointing. The seafood was low quality and tiny. For the price I expected more from them. You do get a lot of banchan and side dishes like Korean pancakes and a rice dish so the combo is more than enough for two. The service was awkward. They will cook the meat for you which is great but our server was standing over us and tossing the meat in front of us the entire time which was kind of awkward. It felt like she was between me and my partner and we couldn't really talk until all the meat was cooked. They also cooked the 3 meats consecutively. Wish they spaced it out a bit because we wanted to eat slowly but didn't want our food to get cold/overcooked. I think it would have been less awkward if our server engaged with us but she didn't introduce herself or even look at us. If you want a chill place for bbq with friends I don't know if this is the place to go. If you just want quality kbbq then this is the place for you. Maybe just stick with the meats though. read more

When I walked in, I was wondering why this large restaurant was empty except for two tables, and their parking lot was so barren. After my meal, I realized that this restaurant cuts corners despite charging premium prices, and will not be returning here. Pros: 6+ banchan side dishes, which is impressive and included acorn jelly and lotus root. Unfortunately the seasoning on the kimchi was not tasty (without using expensive ingredients like jut, it tasted like peppery cabbage). Cons: I ordered mandoo duk kook soup, which includes dumplings that most Korean restaurants hand-make. (For example, if you go to Sansookapsan in Flushing, this soup (with house-made dumplings) are the real deal). Biwon used Bibigo Beef Mandu dumplings from Costco - unmistakeable because the dumplings are so sugary and a shock to the tastebuds compared to any other mandu soup by any other Korean restaurants in Queens. Five Costco dumplings accounted for 80% of an entree that costs $18.99 left a bad taste in my mouth for a number of reasons. read more
