Came back to try the AYCE lunch and it was such an amazing deal. Great selection of cut and the service was impeccable. Our server constantly switched out the grill without prompt and brought dishes out at an extremely fast speed. The meats were all delicious, the marinated ones were well seasoned. Pitchers of sour plum juice are even included in the deal! Kids under 6 are free. The best part is that you can get the AYCE deal even on weekends, which is extremely rare. read more

Ganhoo BBQ has the best BBQ I've ever had, blending Korean and Japanese techniques with rich Chinese flavors. We indulged in the Ganhoo Prime Combo, featuring dry-aged short rib, flat iron, and beef tongue. The meat quality is top-notch and incredibly tender. My absolute favorite? The Bullish Wagyu! it comes with an incredible presentation that's a feast for the eyes and taste buds. And don't miss out on the kiwi cucumber juice--so refreshing! If you're a BBQ lover, you have to check out Ganhoo BBQ. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! Follow @spinx17 for more NYC food recs! read more

Pretty good Korean bbq. A bit different on what I'm use too. The small dishes they give wasn't anything to talk about such as other k bbq spots. However, the meat stairs were pretty damn good and the marinaded chicken was delicious. I went for my friend's birthday, and the staff was great and even gave a meat cake. Only take away was they charged $3 extra every-time you request for extra lettuce shells which most other kbbq spots is given for free. The ambiance was excellent and very clean. read more

We were here this past Saturday for my mother's birthday. It was my parents first time having Korean BBQ. The food was fine, good even, the service was horrible. I asked the waiter to explain the process because it is my parents first time and he looked at me like what???? And didn't do it. He just said to me you cook the food or I can show you. A simple request for sugar was difficult. We were rushed and pressured into ordering quickly, asks for straws were met with just take what I give you stares. The table was over full, there were six of us, but they kept craming items until they spilled my mother's water ON HER. Finally it's time to pay, my father sitting all the way in the booth couldn't reach the card runner box. His card was already charged, but the waiter would relinquish it to my dad to sign. He didn't want to let go of it, sir hand it to him, let him sign it and pass it back. He's 86 and had two people closing him in, he is not about to run off with your reader. When I was my turn to pay, he tried to insist I give him a bigger tip. We had to chase you for everything after being rushed and you wet my mother!!!! Take this 15% and be glad because you don't deserve it. We will never go back, at other places I've had great experiences. read more

food was good but my entire experience was dampened by the family that walked by our table carrying two dogs in their arms. at first we thought maybe the dogs were service animals and didn't pay it any mind but then the dogs continuously barked throughout the rest of the meal, signaling that they were not trained animals. never have i ever been to a sit down restaurant that allows non-service animals to make in to make noise. read more

One of the best kbbq spots I've been to in a while! Great ambience, great service, and great food! While I didn't get come for the all all you can eat pricing, for marinated boneless rib, chicken thigh, white rice, and premium brisket came out to be around the same price and perfect for two people! The water melon juice pitcher is also a must have! Will definitely be back here. read more

This is not a korean bbq place. It's run by chinese people and therefore, side dishes are not korean or good. It is all purchased commercially. This place is so-so and nothing great about it for the price they charged. read more

Services was sub par due to reservations and they didn't have want to seat us until one more party arrives

I can't say I like this place because it was way overally hyped... I almost forgot about this place but I def need to leave a review to share my experience. Let's start off with the wait time. You need to get on the waitlist ahead of time and that is not guaranteed when you'll even be seated. The wait wasn't as bad but make sure your entire group is there already. As for the food, it honestly was mediocre. The meat wasn't high quality as many have claimed. Everything was all about the presentation and interior decors. As for the staff... If you can't speak an ounce of Mandarin, it's almost impossible to order or get any help. I'm not sure about now but when I visited, nobody knew English and it was such a stressful experience. Luckily we were able to show pictures of what we wanted. I haven't been back since my first visit and I don't think I'll visit again. read more

At first, I thought it was Korean BBQ, but then realized it was more of a Chinese BBQ spot. The only differences are the side dishes they give you. The side dishes are very spicy. It was easy enough to make reservations, and the space was very large and spacious. I didn't really smell like BBQ after the dinner, so it was a plus. The staff was really helpful and changed the grill every time we asked. They also cut the cake for our party. We ordered two meats on the staircase, an order of beef tongue, wagyu beef fried rice, and bottles of soju. The meats came out pretty quickly. I would say the quality is decent, but none of it was seasoned, so you have to rely on the sauces. The sauces were yummy. I wished they labeled what cut it was on the staircase. I was just eating different types of cuts and not knowing what cut I was eating. The beef tongues in general were a bit chewier. The wagyu fried rice in theory sounded delicious, but it was just meh, I thought it was too oily. For our birthday girl, they also gave us a "meat cake" which was generous of them. read more

Made a reservation on Yelp and came 10 minutes late. We had to wait about 20 min for a table and I started getting hangry. The staff must've seen my angry face because they immediately gave us a plate of fries and nuggets the second we sat down with our toddler. (It was for the kiddo but I ate most of it) I came for the meat spread on a staircase and it didn't disappoint. Everything was high quality and tasty. Service was fast and efficient. Restaurant was PACKED but this is a well oiled machine. Also got a pitcher of the watermelon juice, the wagyu fried rice and sweet and sour noodle. The cold noodle was refreshing and perfect with the hot bbq. Highly recommend! Overall a great bbq spot in the heart of Flushing! read more

We came here on a busy Friday night and was seated right away. The inside was very spacious with probably at least 50 tables. We got the meat lover's stair combo, which features an array of different cuts of meat displayed on a flight of steps. It includes American wagyu, snowflake beef, shrimp, pork belly, beef tongue, etc., along with mushroom and lettuce. You can grill it yourself, but the servers will also help you cut/ grill the meat from time to time if you'd like. They gave us 4 side different dishes, including a small piece of a silky tofu appetizer and three different types of pickled vegetables that paired really well to cut the greasiness of the meat. There are a few different types of dipping sauce, along with basic condiments to adjust the sauce as needed. Overall, we had a great time here. Excellent service and the food was delicious! read more

If you're looking for a dining experience that's as much about the atmosphere as it is about the food, Korean BBQ delivers on both fronts. From the moment you sit down, the aroma of sizzling meat on the grill pulls you in. The marinated bulgogi is tender and bursting with savory-sweet flavor, while the galbi (short ribs) are rich, juicy, and perfectly charred at the edges. The real charm lies in the interactive nature grilling your own meats at the table makes it feel communal and fun. The variety of banchan (side dishes) is impressive: kimchi with just the right tang and spice, crisp pickled radish, seasoned spinach, and creamy potato salad to balance the heat. Each bite is a new combination of textures and flavors. Service is attentive without being overbearing, and the staff makes sure your grill stays clean and hot. The only danger here is over-ordering everything looks and smells so good, you'll want to try it all. In short: Korean BBQ is less of a meal and more of an event one that's smoky, flavorful, and deeply satisfying. Come hungry, leave happy, and maybe with a faint scent of grilled meat lingering on your clothes as a badge of honor. read more

Amazing experience! My wife found this place in Flushing so we had to try it! The meat quality was so good! Every bite was so worth it. The service is really good. I would recommend getting the Meat Lover stair! They have different cuts of meat you can try and taste different meats. I would go again once in I'm NYC! read more

I was gan-hoo for this k-bbq eatery. The ambience was authentic, the selection was minimal quality meat/shrimp and veggies. I dined for two and ordered the chicken/meat combo which came with lettuce and mushrooms, combined with an assorted pickled veggie sides. The service was immaculate and bright. Everything tasted delicious. Easy to cook with variety of seasonings. The restrooms have mouth wash for use after eating. I highly recommend gan-hoo for top k-bbq choice. read more

I came for their lunch AYCE, and unfortunately the food was pretty disappointing. The meat quality was decent, with a few cuts better than what I've had at other KBBQ spots, but overall it felt more like a Chinese take on Korean BBQ. Many of the side dishes were Chinese-style, such as cucumber salad and cabbage salad, which didn't really complement the BBQ experience. They also offered Korean dishes like corn cheese and soondubu, but neither tasted quite right. Corn cheese is usually hard to mess up, but this one tasted overly sweet and oddly unbalanced, as if the mayo was missing. The soondubu contained imitation crab, which completely overpowered the soup and made it taste nothing like traditional soondubu. On a positive note, the service was fast and the staff were friendly and efficient. I can see the appeal given the lunch pricing, but overall, it's not a place I would return to. read more

East Asian DIY BBQ. Big restaurant with spacious seating. Tables seemed to work for groups of most sizes. We noticed two other restaurants specializing in high quality meats on the same block, so it appears this part of 37th Avenue is becoming a hot spot for carnivores. We had dinner here on a Thursday night and were seated immediately. Before we ordered, the staff brought out a few small, complimentary dishes to share including marinated tofu, pickled daikon, pickled carrots & cucumbers, and peppercorn pickled cabbage. I liked the cold starters across the board. I appreciated the complimentary items at a time that nearly all restaurants have eliminated them. Seemed like the signature item was the meat lover's stair case combo though there were good options for pescatarians and vegetarians too. The combo included a variety of beef, pork, shrimp, and vegetables. The beef was the focus including some aged pieces and some nicely marbled pieces too. The presentation was pretty. My favorite item in the combo was the marinated beef. It was the most flavorful and it was one of the thicker cuts making it easier to cook for me. I had trouble cooking some of the very thin meats. I tried to apply a lot of lard to the grill before placing the meat to prevent the meat from sticking. Unfortunately, a lot of the thinner pieces were stuck when cooked to the temperature that I preferred. Most of the pieces didn't release from the grill until they were well done. I'm guessing it was likely user error. Portion size was on point. Pricing came out to roughly $60 per person with tax and tip which I think was reasonable for a meal focusing on aged and marbled beef. Service was great. Staff was attentive. They changed our grill twice to help prevent meats from sticking. They brought us a pitcher when they saw we were drinking a lot of water. Foods came out quickly and someone was always available when we needed anything. They had gendered restrooms and a stall with accessibility bars in the restroom that I used. We needed to climb stairs for the entrance we used. There was another entrance which I'm unsure if it can be accessed entirely by ramps. read more

I had a great experience here! This is a high end Chinese take on KBBQ and Yakiniku. Very nice interior and a great spot to come for birthdays! They give you a "beef cake" and sing for you. Originally wanted to come here for the AYCE menu, but it turns out that they only do it for lunchtime hours. Instead, my boyfriend and I got the Meat Lover's Staircase, which was recommend for 2-3 people - but it was the perfect amount of meat for us! The menu doesn't really explicitly say which meat is which, so we asked our waiter who also had a hard time distinguishing the cuts of meats. Overall, I will just note that everything was very high quality and my favorites were the wagyu slices on the top shelf of the stairs. The addition of mushrooms, lettuce, and Chinese-style side dishes were considerate. Though, I wasn't a huge fan of the sides since they all had sichuan peppers in them. The waiters were really quick with water refills and grabbing extra sauces for us. They also gave watermelon at the end of the meal! read more

Great date night at GAN-HOO Korean bbq, it was such a vibe! So lively, and perfect for sharing a meal with friends or family. Every dish here is an experience. Their BBQ is set to cook to perfection with high-quality cuts of meat, each bite tender and packed with flavor. We had the beef combo which was perfect for 2 ppl with a side of spicy cucumbers and mushrooms. The staff is attentive, quick and clean. I think we found our favorite Korean bbq spot!

An utterly amazing experience. This Korean bbq place has a buzz in the KBBQ foodie community, and rightfully so! From the atmosphere, to the food, to the staff it's worth visiting. We came in around opening, and it was already picking up. We were seated and ready to order. I went with their meat stairs, cheese corn, and we all did cocktails. What an amazing spread. They give you fresh lettuce to make amazing lettuce wraps, and the staff is truly always close. We didn't want for anything. They gave amazing cocktail suggestions, and I loved each and every one! The meat stair was filling, and gives you a taste of so many different meats. Even some marinated. You of course get your traditional sides, but they're so fresh and delicious. I had such an amazing lunch here, and I was taking my mom and sister out as a treat. They enjoyed every bit. This place is truly worth a try. read more

Just had dinner at Ganhoo in Flushing, and it was an amazing experience! They do all-you-can-eat on weekdays from 12-4:30 PM, but we came for dinner. If you post a review on Google, they give you a free plum drink -- super refreshing! We ordered the beef tongue, wagyu fried rice, and the famous 'staircase.' The beef was insanely tender, and the seasoning was spot on -- tasted like that perfect skewer flavor! Bonus: if you spend over $118, you get a free mango dessert. Oh, and they serve meat cakes for birthdays! Definitely a place to check out if you're craving something special. read more

This place is one of my favorites. I love chinese styled bbq, this one has great interior design. The focal point outside leading to the inside of this establishment. I must say, is very well done. I love walking into a place that looks the part and taste even better. I love the fact that this place is open late. Great for a large group of people, or just two. Very inviting place, the food is nonetheless amazing. The wagyu fried rice is to die for, the drinks are pretty but good. The servers are very accommodating & stay near always. For my chinese inspired KBBQ, this is in my top 3 read more

Food is delicious Service was slightly cold. Had better, but okay. It really depends on who the waiter/waitress that serve the area. Went for my friend's daughter birthday, the restaurant was nice enough to go a birthday song and provided a cute meat cake. The dude at the door needs to calm down. I'm here to enjoy the food and I will pay the bill no need to block me at the door and not let me in. Hahaha read more

I hosted a dinner event for work purposes at Gan Hoo BBQ. I was not sure if for that function it would work well. It was fine. People enjoyed themselves. We had ample proteins. I was surprised they did not offer lamb, and I wish they did, but that is not a complaint; there were more than enough choices. The non-meat items also were great. I'd put in a plug for the cheese corn, which doesn't sound as if it would taste good, but it does. I have wondered whether it is Korean or Korean American. I cannot locate, based on cursory research, a reliable origin story. It is well attested to that it is a fusion dish. So it is relatively recent; its lineage does not date back to the Joseon dynasty. The king oyster mushrooms grill perfectly. Those are among the meatiest of mycological alternatives to animal flesh. The ambiance is good. This is a place for families, groups, maybe a couple if they had an appetite. Although I am a solo diner often, and I would not impose stigma on a singleton at a restaurant, this is not where I would come by myself -- the format does not make sense. For that matter, if I were dating, I also would not choose this place, unless we knew we would be eating copious quantities not conducive to doing anything afterward other than lapsing into a food coma. They have all-you-can-eat options. That gives you a sense of the orientation. For those who believe it matters, and I do not, this is a Chinese interpretation of Korean barbecue. If you insisted on the more Korean version, that is readily available. I would recommend Gan Hoo, however, to anyone who was hungry and wanted to prepare their own beef and pork, while downing a pitcher of beer. read more

HORRIFIC SERVICE - all the one star reviews complaining about the service are true! Don't bother making a reservation because they don't honor them. Place is super overrated and service is sub-par. Avoid at all costs. My family and I dined here for our first time on New Year's day. We found this place on Google and were excited to try it out because of all the great reviews. Despite making a 7:30pm reservation, we had to wait over 40 MINUTES past our reservation time for our table with little to no communication from the wait staff. After speaking to multiple employees to better understand the situation, we were told that the previous customer was "finishing up his ice cream" and that there was "nothing they could do about the situation" except have us wait longer. Making reservations should not be an option for the restaurant if they are not going to be honored - if I have a reservation for 7:30pm, I expect my table to be ready at that time and not have to wait 40 minutes for it. By the time we were seated, several parties for 8pm had already been seated. When speaking to Daniel (the manager) about the situation, he was incredibly unprofessional and refused to do anything to alleviate the situation. He did not apologize, take any accountability or try to empathize with our frustrations. Instead, he blamed it on the fact that we were a large party. Daniel also told us that he could not compensate us for the wait because we were a party of 9 - according to him, if we were a party of 2 and we waited 40 mins then he could've compensated us. Makes absolutely no sense and incredibly inconsistent "policy". In the end, Daniel rolled his eyes at us and ended up giving us 2 vouchers (for a party of 9 people) for our next visit that were basically worthless and valued at $2. Will not be coming back - Daniel, you can keep your $2 vouchers. Food is pricey and you can find so many better options in the Flushing area. It's a miracle that a restaurant with this type of service is still in business. Hope they find a more competent manager to address customer complaints. read more

Food: Some food here is good while some dishes are not. I wouldn't recommend getting any of the appetizers because they were disappointing. We ordered the squid skewers, calamari, and crispy tofu. I expected the squid skewer to be grilled, but it seemed boiled with some sauce and spices sprinkled on top. The texture was rubbery and tough. The calamari was not tasty and dry. The crispy tofu was also nothing special. It was served with sweetened condensed milk which was an unusual combination. The texture of the tofu was not good. We ordered the meat lovers combination and overall it was excellent. Some cuts were better than others, but this is a good dish to get if you want to sample various cuts of meat. We also ordered the scallion beef cubes which were very tasty. As soon as you sit down, they provide dipping sauces and some cold appetizers, which are complimentary. There was spicy pickled cabbage, marinated, sliced beef and pickled radish. The menu includes a variety of combo meat platters, but you can also order individual cuts of meat. There's also a variety of vegetables to order. Service: Service was average - not particularly great but not terrible either. Ambiance: The decor in this restaurant is very nice. Everything looks new and nicely renovated. It's good for small and large groups. Booths and tables are spacious and comfortable. They have an all you can eat price of $40 for adults and $20 for children from noon to 4pm every day. Overall, I would recommend this place, but be mindful of what you order especially with the appetizers. read more

I have only had Korean BBq at one other location. There were so many options. They quickly come to with all the sides, water and plum juice. My son loved the juice. Once we ordered the meat came out quickly. They even brought chicken nuggets as a side for my little guy. I ordered the watermelon juice for myself and they give you watermelon at the end of the meal. The place was well kept and roomy. It was a great choice after the ballgame. read more
