    We arrived for an early dinner, late lunch type of meal. Restaurant was about 1/3 full, quite a bunch of empty tables. There were two waitresses that took care of us and were very friendly and attentive. They also have an ayce meal but we opted for a la carte which ended up being a good idea because it was so much food. We ordered one portion of the beef intestines variety bbq set and added on a fried rice and a motsunabe to share. The mostunabe is good for 2-3 people. The provided banchan was just okay too, nothing too special. The beef intestines variety bbq was also okay, nothing too amazing but went well with the dipping sauce provided. The fried rice on the bbq pan was so delicious. The mostunabe was also really warming and delicious. The portion was so big and we were so full afterwards. There's generous amounts of cabbage and chives. The waitress was very attentive and even gave me a bag of ice when she noticed my arm was slightly burning from the fire. There's a 10% discount if paying in cash.

    The scar on leg after the incident.

    I don't usually write reviews like this, but I feel it's necessary to share my experience. On July 18, while dining at this restaurant, a server spilled hot grease directly onto my leg--not just a pop or splash, but enough to cause a serious burn. I'm now left with a permanent scar from the injury. What made the situation worse was the server's response, which was essentially, "It can't be helped--the grease pops," as if this level of harm was somehow expected or acceptable. I contacted the restaurant through the email listed on their website on July 22, giving them the chance to address the incident privately and professionally. To this day, I've received no response at all. It's extremely disappointing to be injured like this and then met with complete silence. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt, but it now feels like the restaurant is choosing to ignore the situation entirely instead of taking any responsibility or even offering a basic apology. At the very least, I hope they reflect on this and take better care of their customers in the future--both in terms of safety and accountability.

    Large Intestine Casserole

    We came here few times because they have good intestine menus that other Korean restaurants don't have. Service is good and friendly. It has the Korean cool vibes. Since it has a high ceiling, and the vent is doing pretty good, the air is not smoky and stiff like other bbq restaurants.

    Our group came here on a rainy Friday night to celebrate a friend's birthday. This allowed us to order a large variety of dishes (which unfortunately I was too busy celebrating and eating to photograph) that I enjoyed. As others have stated this place specializes in intestines, which makes them the dishes to get. Our group went with the Deluxe Set figuring for the price and listed items we would get plenty of food - wrong about that. I don't recall exactly what was on the list, but I probably tried one of each (tongue, kalbi, pork belly) because there was not much placed on the grill. The items I did try were disappointing and made me wonder why didn't we just go to an AYCE KBBQ spot instead. The other dishes made up for it. I am not a huge fan of intestines, but when in Rome... I will eat and enjoy my fair share. I enjoyed the grilled Combo Gui - preferring the small intestines to the large and entrails. I suggested and the group was in agreement on the octopus, intestine and shrimp casserole. I was a huge fan of this dish - the not too spicy, smoky flavorful tomato-ey broth tied all the flavors together plenty of the main ingredients were throughout this dish. We ordered a fried rice dish with 3 servings to share. This is made tableside on a skillet and served with a ring of egg. It was a good amount and helped round out the meal. The servers were a bit MIA at times, but we managed to get all we needed. I also appreciated they do the cooking tableside. Seeing a 20% tip automatically added to the bill made us understand the service hiccups better. There was a 10% cash discount (and pro tip: there is a non-sketchy looking atm inside that did not charge a fee). I probably would have been at 3 stars considering the deluxe set disappointment, but I have an appreciation for a place that does intestines well because they can be tricky (and probably dangerous if done the wrong way) and that casserole is something I would return for.. the regular cuts of meats were unimpressive, but, all and all, cool story bro!

    Steamed Egg
    Sam Y.

    A little busy on a rainy Friday night, but no wait for a table of 5. Although the space is pretty big, with some upstairs seating, the tables are a little tightly spaced. We could not sit at one of the seats (it was a table of 6), because there was someone sitting at the table behind it. They have a QR code on the table for ordering, but we preferred to order off the paper menu. That said, the service is not very attentive, as we had to flag down someone every time we needed something. There was a good variety of the banchan. We finished most of them, and requested another bowl of the macaroni salad. The Steamed Egg was fluffy and tasty. We quickly finished this, and ordered a second one. The Deluxe Set was not really worth it, as the meats besides the intestine were nothing special. It came with a few pieces of each (beef tongue, kalbi and pork belly), some asparagus, onions and a decent portion of the intestine, as well as onions. I do wish the onions were grilled. We ended up putting them on the grill with our order of Assorted Gui. You're better off just ordering that. The Assorted Gui (for 2) was a an obvious choice to get, since they are known for their intestines. It also came with a couple rice cakes, which were tasty once grilled. A must get! The Fried Rice and Fish Roe had to be ordered after we finished our intestines. We got a portion of 3, which was the right amount for us. It had a bit of a kick. The Octopus, Intestine & Shrimp Casserole was flavorful with lots of octopus, intestine and shrimp. It had a good kick to it. I liked the softer texture of the intestine compared to the grilled version. There is a 10% cash discount, but 20% automatic gratuity. There is an ATM, with no fees, inside the restaurant. If you're into intestines, this is the place to go!

    Hmm...I think this review is based on the preference. While I don't have much experience with intestines, I find the flavor to not be mine. It was a crowded restaurant on a Saturday night and I was extremely excited to meet up with friends and feast. However, I didn't enjoy the food. The intestines were so fatty and oily. The seafood pancake was fine, but not great. Overall, nothing was memorable. The service was great though.

    Gopchang Story's rise in the ultra competitive Korean dining scene started in a few years ago, just a few months shy of the pandemic. Fast forward a number of years and they've done well, outpacing their Manhattan location (#1) in terms of quality and service. I'm a sucker for a place that stays open late (#2) and offers a fun ambiance. The interior is modern, spacious, and very group friendly. I love the souped up, overhead ventilation fans and the additional second level. I've seen dates, families, and massive groups all thrive while feasting and drinking. The food presentation is stellar. The cuts of fatty beef, the hearty jungol style casseroles, to their individual noodle bowls / rice platters are always perfectly laid out and make for a good food photo-op. From the cube steak to the flower pork belly, I'm a fan of most of their meat cuts. The beef brisket casserole earns top honors for me, but the octopus, intestine, and shrimp hot pot is also an excellent choice. In fact, for intestine lovers, this is the place to be. I think some other honorable mentions would be their boochoo gochoo pancake and the beef brisket pancake. I do think the beef tartare is wonderfully seasoned and the gopgamchi (aka fried intestine with garlic, potato, and cheese) is a surprising hit. For rice lovers, I am always partial to the tripe and intestine fried rice, which is also very tasty. I haven't had any major issues with the service and the pricing is average for the area. I do think this is one of the better a la carte Korean BBQ experiences in Flushing proper. I am already looking forward to my next (late night) visit. __________ (#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/gopchang-story-bbq-new-york (#2) Open till midnight on most nights, but 2AM on others.

    I come here like once a week, and it's my favorite place to eat in Flushing. This location is infinitely more spacious than the one in K-Town, and it's less busy. I always go for around 3 servings for 2 people, and I opt for the marinated large intestine and unmarinated entrails. I am not fond of the small intestine. I also get the cold noodles, steamed egg, and some soju! It's usually around $40-$80 per person after tip (depending on the add ons). My one HUGE complaint as a frequent customer, however, is with the ordering app they use. I've had at least 4 issues on different visits where I've received the wrong order. The app often doesn't clear when you sit down at a new table, and it'll add residual orders (presumably from old carts). I've been upset at the staff here for pushing the blame on me (multiple occasions btw) when from my end, the order I submitted was correct. I've gotten to the point of taking a screenshot of the order I've submitted every time to avoid more conflicts with them. It's a shame because this is my favorite place to eat, and I'm not a confrontational person at all. Food here is a 5/5! There's a cash discount! SS your order!

    Food was good. It was a busy day and the service was so so. We waited quite a bit for our food. We wanted all the food to come out at the same time but they would only give us a new dish after we finished the prior dish. We had to ask several times for the fried rice to come out while we had the meat. The music was really loud plus so many people that I could barely hear my friends. It became a bit frustrating by the end. The only time the waiter would come by is when we asked for the bill. They tried to charge us for food (shrimp fried rice) that we ordered but never came. We asked them to bring the shrimp fried rice out but instead they just cancelled the order which was fine because we were very full anyways. I usually come here during lunch when it's more empty and the service is better and ambiance is less distracting. Not sure why this time the service was much worse than before. I usually come here to fulfill my gopchang craving but will try to come during less busy times.

    Such a cute place inside and thank goodness for the table vents. Food is delicious and the servers are attentive. Would go back to try more of their other items.

    Do NOT wear nice clothes here because the smell will stick and you will smell like BBQ all day. If you need to lower your cholesterol levels, you shouldn't even be looking at this place. The intestines just become greasier as it cooks. The restaurant can be quite loud or quiet depending on the time you get there. The wait staff is friendly enough depending on who is with you but you don't have to worry about cooking your food. Well, you're there for the food. The restroom is clean enough and located in the back to the right side. As for parking, depending on the day, you'll either find a spot on Northern Blvd (metered) or you can drive around the block. This is a place my best friend and I visit and she orders for us (I just take pictures for the food porn to send out to friends and post on social media and I eat). You can scan the QR code on the table and take a look at the menu there and order. We get the Large intestine "gui" regular and marinated. The marinated is my favorite and it's full of flavor. You can add on but this is what we get most of the time. For the first time, we tried the Prime Beef rib. They will coat the grill plate with fat and add on the meat and asparagus (or whatever vegetables they have for the day). It was good but I wouldn't be ordering it regularly due to the price for a few pieces of beef. As you're ordering your gui, make sure you order extra rice cake. They will come around and pour out the grease as it continues to cook but you should stop them before they do. When they come out with the grill plate, add all the rice cake in that grease and let it become warm and crispy. When you're finished eating your entrails and rice cake, make sure you order fried rice with cheese and fish roe. One serving was more than enough for the two of us.

    Much larger than the Manhattan location - the place was pretty packed and lively for a weekday night. There is a second floor inside the restaurant (there's a neon sign leading you that points upstairs). I'm not really sure what's upstairs since I didn't see anyone there (I presume it's like a bar or additional seating area). You order via a QR code here and it's pretty straightforward. Prices are a little cheaper than Manhattan too much is a plus! I always get the daechang (large intestine) but the pork belly is solid as well. I like how if you order more than 1 portion of meat, they'll cook the other portion at another table so you don't have to wait very long for your food to cook. Get the fried rice at the end! 1 portion is more than enough for feed 2 people and it's only $5.

We walked into a modern interior with a lively atmosphere, the kind of space that works well for groups or special occasions. The dining room had a polished, energetic feel with the grills built into each table and the staff moving efficiently between stations. Unlike most AYCE barbecue spots, the focus here is on higher quality cuts of beef, and the staff regularly came by to help grill the meat, making the experience feel more polished than a typical buffet. The wagyu is the main reason to visit. We ordered a selection and found the meat well marbled, tender, and noticeably better than what you would typically find at standard Korean or Japanese barbecue buffets. Depending on the menu we chose, there was a wide selection of Australian, American, and Japanese wagyu, along with sushi, sashimi, seafood, and other side dishes. Every meal also began with a cheese lobster, which came out rich and creamy, a nice addition before the barbecue started. We appreciated that the portions were generous, so it was better to order gradually instead of trying to sample everything at once, and the variety across the menu gave us room to explore different cuts and preparations. The dessert selection ended up being one of the biggest surprises. Fresh fruit like pineapple and cantaloupe was exceptionally sweet, and the soft serve and other desserts were a refreshing way to finish such a heavy meal. It helped balance out all of the rich meats, making the meal feel more complete instead of ending on another savory course. Service was another standout. The staff frequently checked on the table, replaced grills when needed, and helped cook and cut the meat to ensure everything was prepared properly. Since the restaurant is popular, reservations are a good idea during peak dinner hours, though the experience ran smoothly once we were seated. The team moved through the room with efficiency, and the pacing of the meal kept the flow steady without feeling rushed. Overall, Wagyu Place BBQ is one of the stronger premium AYCE barbecue experiences in Flushing. The quality of the wagyu, attentive service, and wide variety of barbecue, sushi, seafood, and desserts help justify the higher price. It is more expensive than a typical barbecue buffet, but if you are looking for a higher-end all-you-can-eat experience centered around quality wagyu, it is worth considering.

    First time having Northern style Chinese bbq like this and was very impressed! They use real hot…read morecoals, so the meat gets extra flavorful and charred. I love that they have a huge variety of flavors and seasonings: 3 sauces, korean ssamjang peppers and garlic, 3 spice blends for dipping. The servers were all very friendly and gave us some great recommendations on what to order, so we got a combination of beef and pork cuts, as well as veggies and eel. The eel is so fresh and juicy, the waitress told us they get their eels live and process it in their own kitchen. They cook everything right in front of you, unlike kbbq places where you cook meat yourself. I also appreciated the good ventilation, we didn't smell like meat at all after leaving the restaurant! Additional notes: - we thought it was funny that they put sprinkles in the potato salad, it may seem kind of odd but definitely very Chinese (compliment btw) - it ended up being almost $50 pp for 4 people - we got lucky and didn't have to wait, but I hear there's usually a line, so definitely call ahead to suss out the wait
