Had such a fun time at this Japanese BBQ spot in Flushing! The space is really spacious with a beautiful Japanese-inspired vibe that makes it feel special as soon as you walk in. The service was very attentive and helpful throughout the meal. I loved the huge selection of meats. cooking everything yourself at the table makes it such a cool, interactive experience. The fried rice was absolutely delicious and a must-order. Overall, great atmosphere, great food, and a really fun night out. I would definitely come back!

Cheese corn ribs
Lily L.

This was my second time at this place and honestly it's pretty good. My friends and I got the lovers set because it had the most variety of different meats and every single meat hit the spot. You cook your own barbecue here which is also nice since you can cook it to your liking. The corn cheese was great with the corn being very sweet. The other two dishes I didn't really enjoy as much. I felt like the soondubu was pretty bland and the cheese corn beef was not really for me either. There is a lot of seating so it was a great place to chat and catch up with my friends without worrying about having to leave quickly. The service was also very good, they were pretty busy but were attentive when they could be helping us grab a couple of extra items that we needed. Defining a good place to check out for barbecue and still a place that I would revisit.

Seafood pancake
Anne C.

Really solid beefs and at a decent price point, their seafood pancake was not the crispy style but still good. Good variety and focused on beef. The interior was super large and they had a cute birthday beef cake as well.

Meat lover staircase

Not a great experience we had here. We came here for dinner with a party of four to celebrate a birthday. We were clearly there first and they sat another party that came after us and gave us an excuse saying they were outside. Ok fine since the it was only another 10 minutes wait for the next table. Our server was so absentminded. He got our order wrong and he left off part of our order. He didn't refill our water once and only picked up some empty dishes here and there. We told him we had a cake and he had a hard time finding it. He didn't even clean up our table so we can have the cake. He gave it to us still in the box and we had to set everything up ourselves. He only lit the candle and gave us a butter knife. Meanwhile the other said of the restaurant also had someone celebrating their birthday had the whole crew come out with the cake lit and they sang the song. So we were very disappointed and not satisfied with the service at all. For the food it was also mediocre. We had the meat lover staircase. The quality of the meat degrades as you go down the stairs. Only the first and second meat at the top was good. The premium brisket was very tough and not good at all. The fried rice tasted like white rice. Seafood pancake was okay.

Wagyu beef combo

Anyone coming into Flushing Queens for dining, rule of thumb is to always expect 15 minutes of added commute whether you're just walking down the street for 2 blocks. When in Flushing, try out the Korean bbq because of all the 5 boroughs, this is where to get quality kbbq at a good deal. Rainy day, did not want to endure an extra off Downtown Flushing walk for a quality sized kbbq restaurant that's AYCE. Gan Hoo BBQ popped up on my recommended list. Usually I'm on the fence for anything in the Downtown Flushing area because it's quick service and the food quality can be meh. This place took me by surprise and they exceeded my expectations in terms of all I look for in a kbbq spot. The selections of meats available for AYCE were phenomenal. I got the set meal this visit with 5 choices of beef and pork: galbi, Wagyu (yes you heard correctly), samgyeosal, kote beef, skirt steak, along with a basket of lettuce, bancham sides, and rice sides. Around $40 per person. Even with the AYCE option, it's around this price where you pick which types of meat if neither beef, pork, or seafood sways you. The meat quality was great where it was nicely marbled, flavor was rich in the cuts, and not marinated in shortcut manner where you would just over salt and dab with turnaround seasonings. The table next to us got a meat cut shaped cake with a candle sticking out which I thought was cool too. Anyone who isn't a mega sweet tooth but loves their proteins. Winning points was easy walk from the 7 train station, quality meats, good for easing in your wallet, and the decor inside was very traditional and minimalist. You will be responsible for cooking your bbq for those shy of grill responsibility. But all my good points above are worth it if you're looking for easy and quality kbbq. For drivers, this will be a tight place to travel to as parking in Downtown Flushing is always a challenge.

I went here on a last minute Tuesday, there was no wait time and the food was great. We hot the ladder and 2 orders of fried rice. It was enough for 4 people, the aesthetics and feel of the restaurant was great too, will be back soon.

Came for AYCE lunch (on a weekend, which is great), and Gan-Hoo was very solid! It was pretty empty on a Saturday. I made a reservation online but would have been able to be seated immediately. The restaurant is nicely decorated, very large, and clean. The grills were more upscale than traditional AYCE spots. They had an array of choices for AYCE from all different cultures. As for dishes that were already made, there was cucumber salad, bibimbap, and Caesar salad, which was a fun variety. They had Coke & Sprite as their AYCE drinks as well. Meat quality was alright-- some cuts were harder than others but not too bad overall. My favorites were the flat iron and the bacon wrapped enoki. I'd come back!

Cooking some meat. I mean, what else did you think was happening here?

We were looking for a fun family Korean bbq experience in flushing and this was a direct hit. A good time was had by all as we cooked up meat and shrimp on the bbq and added our own mix of salt, pepper and bbq seasoning. The staff is super attentive, constantly changing out the bbq and refilling water. Bigger napkins would be nice, but everything is good here and it is very lively.

AYCE lunch
William W.

Came back and finally got the AYCE lunch time at 40$. Does not dissappoint, all the same quality and now you can get AYCE. got almost everything on the menu, the garlic shrimp and ribs were the best. Service is fast and friendly as always. I always come here when I'm in flushing.

Jenny L.

Food was pretty good!! Service was fairly quick!! Waitress seemed miserable though!! All you can eat from 12PM-430PM for $40 per person which is not bad!!! Definitely going back for more!!!

Birthday meat cake? Don't be fooled. It's a bowl with a thin layer of meat outside.
Thomas L.

Overall: Came here multiple times in the past. This is probably my favorite Korean BBQ spot in Flushing. The place is clean and there is a good variety of meat cuts and veggie options. Only con is that it can get pricey if you eat a lot like me but there is a more restricted menu for AYCE at $40 for adults. I came here in a party of 4. The only reason I did not go for the AYCE option was that AYCE didn't let me redeem a coupon for $20 off after paying $2 coming here a previous time. Everyone enjoyed the experience and left full/satisfied. Food: The food was delicious. Everything was fresh. Lettuce for wraps were clean and very vibrant appearing. There's no traditional sauce station but they provided everyone with premade sauces and spices at eat table. Did not go for anything fancy, just the standard meat lover staircase with assorted cuts of beef, pork, and shrimp. This is probably enough to satisfy 2-3 people, but I recommend getting other items along with this. The meat staircase comes with unlimited pickled veggie side dishes, including Szechuan pickled cabbage which I thought was really good especially after grilled (helped me get my money's worth). I am a KBBQ button mushroom lover (grill by putting mushroom belly up, like a bowl, and watch as the mushroom juices pool; it's ready to eat once it starts to bubble and make sure to drink the juices)! The meat staircase comes with a few mushrooms and I always order more but they are pretty pricey. Also got a bowl of cold noodles (I was not a fan but the GF liked it) and chicken feet tteokbokki (this was good 5/5). One friend had her birthday the day before so they gave us extra sliced beef on the house (see picture). Service: No complaints here. During lunch was pretty busy and we were able to get our food within a reasonable time. Waiter was proactive in changing the grill. Ambiance: Busy but no table or music was overly loud.

beef soup
Winni Z.

Highly recommend!! This place was packed even on a Wednesday so I would recommend going early or making a res. The area was very spacious and welcoming. The food was delicious! What surprised me was that it wasn't just the meat that was fresh, the cooked dishes were also delicious. Both soups were extremely flavorful and priced so reasonably. We ended up ordering another bowl because it was so yummy. The cheesy corn was also hot and tasty. They give you free ice cream at the end, as well. The only thing I didn't quite like is that the servers stood by the tables the whole time. While it's nice that we were constantly being attended to, it did feel awkward having a man stand and watch us eat the entire meal...

Sundubu jjigae
Fateha A.

This place is pretty fancy. The interior decor is really nice. You have to head upstairs for seating once you enter. Service is good. Banchan: Why're they all so spicy? 3/5 lotus root- spicy 3/5 pickled radish- hella spicy & sweet for me 3/5 pickled cabbage- so spicy 3/5 some beef dish- spicy 4/5 watermelon juice: They use actual blended watermelon. It was nice & frothy too. Wasn't too sweet, tasted very natural. Didn't taste like any added sugar/syrup or disgusting, artificial sweetener. Also, I don't think I've ever had watermelon juice anywhere before, so it's hard to compare with other drinks. However, in an age of crappy, artificial, food & drink (artificial refreshers, juices, teas, etc.), this was a nice change. I think I'd come back here just for this. 3/5 beef teriyaki: sweet, but not overly so 2/5 calamari- all tentacles, pretty bland 1/5 egg fried rice- very bland 3/5 sundubu jjigae ($14)- I requested mild, & the base was very watery, even tho it was still pretty spicy. Didn't look or taste authentic to me. Also, the only seafood in it was shrimp & fake crab. I expected what I expect when I order this dish at a Korean restaurant: a rich, savory, broth with clams, mussels, & squid too. In terms of seafood variety, authenticity, & taste (rich broth), I def feel cheated. Also, it didn't come with rice or gyeranjjim. I had to request white rice, cuz it's the only plain rice they had. What kinda Asian restaurant doesn't have purple sticky rice? How dare. What cuda been an amazing dish, sadly falls mediocre. 3/5 cucumber salad: spicy for me, but my friends didn't think so. Comes with peanuts. 1st time I seen cucumber salad come with peanuts. Why ruin a fine dish with peanuts?

Cuisine: 6 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 4 Value: 7 I have not been here in a long time. Maybe because the prices are no longer considered cheap eats. Or maybe because my taste buds have evolved over the years. Or maybe it's just not as good as it used to be. The answer is maybe all three and somewhere in the middle. I have never came here, or any other Latino-Chinese restaurants in NYC, for service or decor, so let's set that aside. The value is still somewhat there, but the food did not hit that nostalgic note I was looking for. I wanted to get the Fried Pork Chops (Chuletas De Cerdo Frita), but our server suggested the "juicier" Broiled Pork Chops (Chuletas De Credo Asada) instead. Sorry to report, if that's juicy, then how dry is the fried pork chops? I shutter at the thought. It was also under seasoned. I substituted the House Fried Rice for my side at an $4.50 additional fee. It was just okay and not worth the upgrade. Boneless Crispy Fried Chicken (Chicharron De Pollo) was also a disappointment. The batter was more hard than crispy, but the idea that boneless dark meat isn't more juicy simply tells me that the chef over fried the pieces. It came with Fried sweet plantains, which could have been a but more ripe but not bad. I'm not sure how I feel about the Beef Stew (Carne Guisada), which had relatively tender meat, but the sauce was so weak and lacked any real flavor. The black beans and white rice that came with it was decent. What might bring me back to this restaurant sooner rather than later was the Shrimp Egg Foo Young (foo Young Con Camarones). I felt that the eggs were cooked extremely well, but the star of the show was that delicious brown sauce full of umami. Having this over white or fried rice made this meal much more acceptable. I'm not sure when I'll have another craving for this type of food. If I do, I'll definitely get the egg foo young again. However, the other dishes were misses for me, so maybe I'll try the Fried Pork Chops and Shredded Beef in Tomato SayceRopa Vieja.

Whether you speak Spanish or Cantonese, the waiters here can help get you whatever dish your heart…read moredesires. It's amazing to step into this restaurant, it's like stepping into another world where anything is possible. I feel like home whenever I come here. My favorable dishes are the combo dishes because I can choose fried rice or noodles or French fries with a meat usually, Yummylicious to the core!

The menu here is split into two sections, classic American Chinese take out and Sichuan cooking…read more Seems to be a fairly popular take out spot, as they were fulfilling many delivery orders while I was there, but the interior is comfortable and elegantly decorated unlike a standard take out only spot. I ordered the cured pork with garlic shoots and dry fried green beans. The cured pork was quite salty, and paired well with the buttery, tender leeks it was cooked with. The dish was not overly oily, and was pleasant over white rice. I enjoyed the chewiness of the pork which allowed you to experience the complex flavor. The green beans were well fried, with characteristic texture signature to this dish. The seasoning was very well balanced and not overpowering to the natural sweetness of the green beans. I would recommend either dish. They were both slightly toned down iterations when compared to the times I've eaten these dishes at other Sichuan restaurants in flushing, but still well seasoned and well cooked. The service was very warm and friendly, and many other customers seemed to be returning regulars.

Food is good, quiet and clean…read more Service is impeccable. My fiance and I drink water like fish. Our glasses were never empty. Warning to all with a pineapple allergy like me: do not eat the duck sauce. If you like spicy ask for hot mustard instead. Orange chicken was crispy and flavorful. I did not find it spicy, but my spice tolerance is very high. My fiance had the chicken with broccoli and it looked amazing. Try the cold noodles. They are chewy and delicious. For me the fried dumplings were good, but not great. Worth a try but nothing to rave over.
