Want some authentic Korean BBQ? This is the place to be, a hole in the wall but with all that you need to enjoy a fantastic authentic Korean BBQ feast. Walking in, it was dark, cozy, smelling delicious and it was Full House. We were seated quickly with servers that were friendly & fast. We picked the menu option on page 1, $77 per person lunch set menu that includes 4 types of meat, steam eggs, kimchi pancake, different dipping sauces; including bean paste dipping sauce and raw garlic slices and abundant Banchan little appetizer dishes. The meats were fresh and tasty. The spicy cold noodles were refreshing, and all the Banchan little dishes offered lots of varieties and refillable. You know this place is authentic when you have bean paste dipping sauce and raw garlic slices. They are not trying to tailor to westerners. The grill was hot, the meat was sizzling and the food kept coming. We ate as much as we can, and there were so much food, at the end. We were about to explode. This place is so good and we can't wait to come back. read more

10/10 experience both times I came. Food is sooooooo good and flavorful here. I love that it's not smoky inside this restaurant despite the grilling and it's very clean. It feels high end. Prices are definitely a little more than some other Korean restaurants but I think it's worth it for the quality of the meat and food as well as the service and inside area. All servers have been so kind and attentive, which I appreciate appreciated. What sets Hangang apart from other Korean restaurants is the quality of their meats. Their Kimchee soup is amazing too, I highly recommend getting that! Japchae was yummy but not a standout. You're going to spend about $50 a head here. I'll be back! read more

We came here for a friend's birthday lunch. We made a reservation just in case, it does get busy. It looked pretty spacious. There is the option of yakiniku or just order already made dishes. Lunch has special combos which was a pretty good deal. We did family style: - Complimentary pickled dishes: so many variety and multiple refills. I like the potatoes and kimchi. - Seafood pancake: Crispy and thin. - Ordered a cold noodle dish (don't remember the name) was really good! - Kalbi dish was really good. Meat was tender and flavorful. Somewhat on the expensive side for Korean food. It was a nice restaurant to eat and chat with friends. read more

Came here last night for dinner and we left sooo happy. Definitely ate way too much but just couldn't stop ourselves. We were waited on by Justin and Tae and they were so friendly, attentive and helpful! We all ordered the $77/person prime beef 9 course meal and were barely able to finish all of it. Banchan was delicious and maybe we could've finished the meat and soups if we didn't indulge in the sides. Parking is in the back lot (it may fill up during busy hours) but you'll get the first hour of parking free when you scan the QR code inside the restaurant. The next hour after is $3. Private company. Definitely recommend coming here!! Good idea to make reservations in advance. Ask for Justin!! read more

This is one of my favorite places to eat Korean BBQ on Oahu. Its location in Niu Valley Center gives you plenty of free parking options which is always nice. The restaurant itself is also pretty big but I'd recommend making reservations since it was quite busy when we went. The prix fixe menu is what we went with and it came in at $70 a person but was well worth the price! My favorites were the prime ribeye cap (highly recommend), as well as prime beef brisket and Korean steamed eggs. 10/10 would recommend! read more

I think this would be one of my top three Korean restaurants in Hawaii and that says a lot from someone who has lived in Korea for 3 years. I feel there is a lot of authenticity when I was eating here. The servers can speak Korean and English which is helpful. They were also very attentive and they did an amazing job and making everyone satisfied with the food. The Kalbitang (갈비탕) was amazing. It felt like I was back in Korea where I found my first small hole the wall restaurant that gave off the feeling of a home cooked Korean meal. Overall an amazing experience and will definitely come again soon Off notes: A bit crowded but overall a nice venue for Korean food. The floors are a bit slippery (not sure if it's the product they're using or the tile itself) so be careful. read more

We're impressed with fresh ingredients, top quality preparation plus care that goes into every banchan, dish, and stew, producing amazing flavors. Highly pleased with outstanding customer service. I ordered One Special Deluxe Rice Meal that featured Hot Stone Pot Rice, TteokGalbi, and Soy Bean Paste Stew. My husband and son shared Deluxe Premium BBQ Meal which offered Hot Stone Pot Rice, A. Combo, and Soy Bean Paste Stew. Complimentary hot tea automatically served at the table. Unfortunately, tea retained heat for a short amount of time in covered pitcher. An array of twelve banchan where pickled veggies were perfect! When my husband kindly requested for a second serving of kim chee and fishcake, male employee provided it without hesitation. Hot Stone Pot Rice remained steaming hot even with the lid off for over an hour. TteokGalbi served sizzling hot retained heat on the platter for a long time. Soy Bean Paste Stew continued to be piping hot throughout our dining experience. Cold water served upon request. Restrooms are located in the restaurant. If you're seated at a booth, see signage and scan QR code for parking deets. Press the button if you need service and don't see a Server nearby. Enjoyed leisurely consuming our meal within enclosed space and each other's company on Valentine's Day! Highly recommend lunch specials. Dinner for sure next time. read more

Hangang Korean Grill House and it's definitely one of the more polished Korean BBQ spots in Honolulu. The restaurant has a modern, clean interior that feels a little more upscale than your typical KBBQ place, which made the experience feel like a nice night out rather than just a quick meal. The quality of the meat was the highlight. Everything tasted fresh and well-marbled, especially the beef cuts on the grill. You can really tell they focus on premium ingredients, and the flavor comes through without needing heavy marinades the signature veggies with the stamp on the mushroom cute. Service was attentive and friendly, and the overall setup made grilling at the table easy and enjoyable. It's a great place to come with friends so everyone can share different cuts and dishes. Overall, Hangang is a solid Korean BBQ spot if you're looking for good quality meat, generous portions, and a slightly more elevated dining experience. Definitely a place I'd come back to when the Korean BBQ cravings hit. read more

Great service! I've been here four times and unfortunately service/food is a bit inconsistent. The first time I came, everything was impeccable. Service and food. The beef was sooooo soft and perfectly cooked. Every bite of meat had me saying "wow". The second and third time, we got a specific server that would put beef on the grill, walk away, and forget it. So everything was overcooked/burnt. The fourth time, last night, we got the woman server that served me the first time, so I was like, yes!!! She's great. In the set b, the steak and skirt steak was so soft and just amazing. The brisket and the beef tongue was a bit overcooked and chewy, but not terrible. The soft tofu soup is a lot more tofu than soup. But it tastes good. It was very busy on a Saturday night, I joined the yelp waitlist at 7pm and we were seated around 9-9:10pm. Make sure to check before you plan to go!! read more

Excellent Korean BBQ with high quality meats. It's expensive but you're paying for quality over quantity. Great banchan as well. We'll be back for a splurge meal. We got: Combo set for $140 Soon du bu Grilled chicken read more

Pretty pricey spot, but the quality of the meat was very good. My wife and I ordered the $119 combination B, which feeds 2 people. It came with 4 kinds of beef cuts, including premium sirloin, premium skirt steak, premium brisket and ox tongue. I really enjoyed the brisket. It was tender, juicy, so much flavor and melted in my mouth. The other steak cuts were incredibly delicious as well. Ox tongue, however, wasn't my thing. It was very chewy and was lacking flavor. The meats came witb a nice variety of banchan, but those didn't really stand out from many other banchan that I've tried in other Korean restaurants. Our combination also came with one kimchi stew and it was actually pretty tasty. I was still hungry and considered ordering a kimchi pancake, which I love so much, but the $28 price tag stopped me. The service was solid, as the waiters did their best to be there for us to help us cook the meats. The place itself is clean, with a contemporary design, with 20 some tables with grills for dining in. Good food, good place, but maybe slightly too authentic for me. I'm used to good Korean bbq spots in LA, but this one seems authentically above, in a good way. Glad I tried this spot. read more

I've dined here during lunch and dinner and I will probably only do lunch here. Food- same food but tastes so much better during lunch. Maybe different chef? galbi jjim during dinner was too watery and overy sweet. And the naeng myun is always not cold enough, the broth is cold but the noodles are still warm. I dont think the noodles get washed in ice bath. Service- if you want good service, you need to dine in for lunch, ask for Jan (i think thats her name) She speaks perfect english and perfect korean. She remembered my mom's allergies and even brought out her favorite banchan. My mom is pretty difficult but Jan handles her very well lol. As for dinner service, management needs to step up with staffing more people during peak hours. I look forward to our weekly lunch at hangang! read more

Hangang - Waimanu Street ***** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ***** Food: ***** Value: **** Menu: ***** Ambiance: **** Service: **** Parking: ***** When I asked my Korean national friends, where is their favorite Korean restaurant, most will say Hangang. Hangang has two locations. The original is near Ala Moana and they recently opened up their second restaurant in Niu Valley. In my opinion, they have the second best Banchan, after Korea Garden. However, I think they're marinated Korean short ribs or kalbi is the best. I've been to Hangang five times in the last six months and I've always had good service. I've enjoyed all the dishes that I've tried. Their food is tasty and I highly recommend that you give them a try. RATINGS & RECOMMENDED ORDER: Korean short ribs or Kalbi = A Spicy pork = A Spicy arrowroot cold noodle = A Jajangmyeon Black bean noodles = A Soft tofu stew = B (more to come, I'll be back) Yelp: https://m.yelp.com/biz/hangang-honolulu Website: YELP: Milton K Sorry!

This is the first time I had lunch here. I came with two friends who still live in Honolulu. The meal was great, we chose the $28.95 meal and it was delicious and large servings. We had a takeout bag!!! The service was amazing and quick and pleasant. The ambiance is very clean and for a Friday, it was pretty busy for our 11 AM reservations. If you want to add this location for your Korean cuisine, give them a try! read more

Hangang is hands-down our favorite Korean BBQ spot on the island--authentic, elevated, and consistently delicious. We always go for their set prix fixe menu, which is honestly one of the best values in Honolulu. It comes with a full spread of banchan, fresh salad, soup, steamed egg, cold noodles, and a huge selection of meats that always feels generous. They offer both a regular beef set and a Wagyu upgrade, but honestly the regular option is outstanding--juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The short rib and brisket are our favorites; they cook beautifully on the grill and stay incredibly moist. Their dipping sauces elevate everything, especially the pink Hawaiian salt--such a simple touch but it makes each bite pop. You can really taste the quality of the meat here. For $77 per person, the prix fixe is absolutely worth it. You leave full, happy, and never feeling like you overpaid. Plus, they finish the meal with dessert, which is such a nice treat after all the grilling. My personal favorites are the soft tofu soup and kimchi soup--both are rich, comforting, and perfectly seasoned. And I'll admit, I always steal a bite (or two) of my husband's cold noodle soup because it's that refreshing. They also have an à la carte menu with tons of great options if you want to add on or customize your meal. Everything we've tried so far has been high-quality and prepared well. The service is another reason we keep coming back--attentive without hovering, quick to change grills, and always friendly. The restaurant itself is clean, modern, and spacious, which makes the entire dining experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. If you love Korean BBQ or just want an elevated dining experience that still feels homey and authentic, Hangang is absolutely a must-try. We recommend it to everyone visiting--and it never disappoints. read more

Got their rice lunch special ($30) and chose the kalbi and tofu soup which comes with purple rice in a hot pot. Big portion for the price and love the variety you get with the protein and soup and sides. Kalbi was tasty and tender, my soup wasn't boiling when it came out so the egg needed to be stirred to get cooked. Service was a bit slow since they were pretty busy but they were friendly. I didn't have a reservation and was seated right away. They also have a small parking lot in the back that they share with a few other businesses. They have a few other lunch specials worth checking out and I will be back to try! read more

Great lunch set choices! We don't need to eat dinner. The assortment of banchan is great! The kimchee is fresh fresh and on a little sweet but so is the bulgogi and n spicy braised beef. The cold noodles are silky and firm. The spice level in the stews is just right. Love the stone pot rice w pumpkin pieces. The corvina and mackerel were grilled just right. Great service. Open Table reservation available. Parking in the rear of building w a fee. read more

They have great lunch specials and I went on a lunch date with the hubby. There were two couples before us and we waited 25 minutes after getting our names on the list. We perused the lunch special menu offered daily from 11am-3pm. We both got the lunch special set $27.95 per person. It comes with stone pot rice, one main dish and one stew. I picked the Korean short ribs bbq with soybean paste stew. My husband chose the chicken bbq with kimchi stew. It also came with nine complimentary banchan dishes. Everything was delicious. I loved the short ribs, but they didn't give too many pieces. The soybean paste stew was fully flavored. The kimchi stew wasn't that spicy, which I liked. My two favorite banchan dishes were the soy potatoes and black beans. It was great that they served black rice with black beans and kabocha in the stone pot. I left feeling really full and had leftovers for the next day. read more

Honestly the food here is amazing!! We made reservations for a weeknight dinner and they seemed quite busy when we checked in, then they mentioned we came to the wrong location. So we started to leave and then realized that.. no we were at the right location, they apologized and seated us promptly. We ordered the $70 per person prefix menu which included a lot of amazing food. We got kimchi pancake, korean steamed tofu, and a bunch of banchan along with our meats & 1 chosen side. The cold noodle was super refreshing and the noodles were nice and chewy. During our meal we asked for another kimchi banchan but our server gave us a bit of attitude & ended up bringing us the kimchi anyway. Overall the food was amazing and the quality of the meat was great. I loved all the banchan and it tasted very fresh. I would make a reservation since it was 100% full when we arrived. I'd come back again, but the servers felt like they were rushed in their job hence rushing us. read more

Hangang is my favorite Korean restaurant in Honolulu. The menu has a great variety of classic dishes, and everything we've ordered has come out hot, well-seasoned, and consistently satisfying. The banchan is always fresh, flavorful, and refills are generous. Their lunch specials are amazing and easily one of the best values around. Each set comes with a main protein, your choice of sundubu or jjigae, purple bean/pumpkin rice, and banchan. We usually order the saba or galbi, which are both filling and flavorful. They also offer a wide range of specials at different price points, roughly $20-$79, depending on how hungry you are or whether you're sharing. It makes Hangang a great option for anything from a quick lunch to a bigger, more indulgent meal. Service is friendly and efficient without feeling rushed, and the atmosphere is casual and comfortable. Prices feel reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, especially given the consistency. If you're looking for reliable, comforting Korean food in a convenient location, Hangang is easily one of the best choices in Honolulu. We'll definitely be back. read more

This place is open until 11pm making it the perfect late night eatery. There's a small parking lot in the back and we found parking easily at 9 pm, but parking may be challenging during peak times. There are booths and tables inside for larger parties. The servers are young Korean guys and they are fast and friendly. The menu is big with not only Korean bbq but also lots of other options. It was chilly when we went so we ordered soup which really hit the spot. The banchan is refillable and some of the best we've ever had! read more

The food was awesome! High quality, ample quantity, and super tasty. The variety of banchan was impressive and the meat was so 'ono. The service was top notch. Although the servers were very efficient and courteous, we were not fans of their constant offer to cook our food on the grill while we ate. We know that they were trying to be helpful, but one of the things I love about Korean bbq, is how we can interact with cooking the food on the grill. It's an experience that's unique to Korean bbq. Of course by our request, they happily obliged to our desires. The service was impeccable. They should consider implementing a way to signal when a table wishes to cook their own. That way the many servers don't keep offering. The place is new and gorgeous. The decor is modern, clean, and elegant. It definitely gives a high end vibe, but that's a bonus since there aren't many restaurant offerings in HK. The only thing that I noticed that could improve the ambiance was the fact that the floor was slick with grease, or it felt slippery due to the grease or whatever floor cleaner they use. read more

Hangang - Korean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My partner and I was craving for some bbq after watching the Jim - Carpenter comedy show and found this spot closing at 11pm so decided to try it out. We got the 9 course menu which was ultimately a large spread all at once, there ain't no coursing like the fancy restaurants. The meats are high grade and fhe cuts were a little too thick, thats just my own personal preference. There were a ton of sides, and I would eat half of those. Their tofu soup and cold noodles were legit good. Not a fan of that kim chi pancake those. The pancake was salty and hard. Their steam egg taste kinda weird, theres like burnt pieces in them eggs.. anyhow genrally a good spread and but pricey. The service is very good, smiles and cooking our food until I decided to take it over myself hehe. The renovation was legit nice but the floor is slippery from the bbq oil, so be careful. read more

As a Korean, I'm happy to confidently say that Hangang is the best Korean restaurant on this island. Having lived in Hawaii for 12 years as a Korean local, I always felt a bit disappointed that I couldn't confidently recommend a truly great Korean place when friends from other countries asked me. Hangang changed that. Every side dish is made with care and tastes wonderful. The seasoning is well balanced and not overly sweet, which is something I really appreciate, especially these days. The staff are kind, and the restaurant is clean and comfortable. Whenever I'm craving Korean food made by someone else, I go straight to Hangang. read more

One of the best KBBQ ever! Great food and great service! You wouldn't think that you come to Hawaii to eat KBBQ lol but I'm glad I gave this place a try! It's not all you can eat. You order a set menu which I always think is better since the quality of meat is usually better. Everything was great! The meat, the side dishes, the tofu soup and the kimchi pancake! I loved it all! My sister who does not like kimchi, LOVED the kimchi pancake! Depending on your budget, this might be considered a bit more on the pricy end. But definitely give it a try!l! I'll definitely come back next time I'm in Hawaii. read more

Enjoyed lunch at Hangang in Niu Valley. Excellent food! The quality of the banchan and kalbi was superb. The Kim chee was crunchy and tasty; so fresh and not too spicy. The kalbi was tender and delicious. Located in Niu Valley with ample free parking. We sat in a booth that would comfortably fit 4. The booths are high and allow for private and intimate dining. The walls are dark gray and the lighting was comfortable; not too bright. Restaurant is clean. Each table has a drawer where you can grab extra napkins and chopsticks from. I love the stainless steel chopsticks and water mug. You are given a covered pitcher of ice water. Service was excellent. The servers spoke with a thick Korean accent and they were so helpful in describing the menu options. It was like eating authentic Korean food in Korea. Price point is excellent given the quality of the food. I intend on returning to Hangang again and again! read more

A friend of mine wanted to try this Korean restaurant so we made reservations for lunch on a Sunday. Parking was plentiful and free behind the restaurant. Hangang is located right by Ala Moana shopping center. I noticed a lot of the reviews mentioned how expensive it was during dinner time, but was not too bad during lunchtime. They have lunch specials from 11 AM to 2 PM. We ordered some lunch combos which included a soup, and meat of your choice. We also ordered some cold noodles. For lunch all of the food is cooked for you. We started out with the banchan which are those small little dishes that are typically served at Korean restaurants, including kimchi, potatoes, etc. It was good and quite tasty. When our proteins arrived, we realized that there was a mistake in our order as our server brought out two of the same proteins, even though we had ordered three different types. We brought this to our service attention, but it was not corrected, so we eventually just ended up eating what we had in front of us. Food was very good, I thought the lunch prices were relatively reasonable, but they could work a little bit on their customer service. read more

Yakiniku Hangang Finally got a table after trying three times -- totally worth the wait! From the crispy kimchi pancake to the rich kimchi stew and beautifully marbled cuts of meat, everything was spot on. The tsunami of banchan (side dishes) were fresh, and the cold noodles at the end were the perfect refreshing finish. If you're craving quality Korean BBQ in Hawaii, this place hits the spot. Just be ready to wait if you don't make a reservation, or get on the Yelp waitlist. Go early -- it gets busy fast! read more

Came for a late lunch on a Thursday. It was around 3:00pm. The servers were busy cleaning and prepping for dinner. One of them looked irritated when we walked in. Food was ok. One disappointment was the rice in a hot pot. Other places will add hot water to get the sticky rice off the inside. They didn't do that here. Basically half the rice got wasted being stuck to the pot. Not sure if I would come back here. Maybe it was just an off day... read more

Broth was creamy and very delicious. Homemade mandu was the star of the dish. All the side dishes were delicious. The highlight was the radish kimchi and the seaweed soup.

I was so excited to try Hangang after reading all of the reviews! I have lived in Korea before and the food here was so authentic and they also had so many additional authentic dishes that you would typically only be able to really find in major US cities like Los Angeles or New York. Given the warm weather, I went with Samgyptang - its a dish where a baby chicken is stuff with rice and several aromatic ingredients like Ginseng. The food was so delicious and authentic and I felt like I was eating in Korea! They also had a great Banchan selection and everything was fresh. Service was also outstanding too! I accidentally left my credit card in the check and left the restaurant and one of the servers ran outside to hand it to me - I really appreciated their kindness and their thoughtfulness. Hope to come here again if I get a chance to come to Hawaii again! read more

Came here for a birthday dinner for my mom. Parking is in the back and there's valet-- which is nice since the lot is on the smaller side. I dropped off a cake before picking up my mom as a surprise and they offered to refrigerate it for us until we arrived. The inside looks like your typical Korean bbq restaurant. We did booth seating and the overall dining room is a decent size. It was pretty busy when we went around 5:30p. We did the set course for all the adults. It was nice bc they let my son eat from our set course (which we didn't even finish). The meat seems like good quality. Flavors were okay. They did help cook things from time to time. The set course also comes with a soup which was okay. I got the kimchee soup and my parents got the miso. They brought out some watermelon in cups for dessert. After our dinner, I asked for the cake and the server just brought it out in its original box. No plates forks etc. not sure if they realized we wanted to actually enjoy it at the restaurant after our dinner Overall service was okay. Everyone seemed rushed but it was busy so understandable. Experience was overall okay. Not sure if I'd be back? There are a bunch of solid Korean bbq spots in town with a better price point. I might be back to try their lunch specials ! read more
