    Assorted meat including wagyu
    Faye Y.

    We went shortly after opening and the place filled up quickly. Parking on the back is valet only but you can also find street parking We chose the 9 course menu and it is soo much food. In addition to the banchan you also get salad, steamed eggs, your choice of soup/noodles and ice cream! In addition to the assorted meats. You don't just pick one, you get 4 different meats and a lot of them Will check out their aina haina location next

    AMAZING lunch specials! I got the cold noodle and the kalbi lunch special for about $30. Also shared a couple of other lunch specials with friends. The saba was DELICIOUS! Honestly, everything was super good. I love the purple rice with the kabocha pumpkin. Highly highly recommend for the lunch specials!!!!

    Hanging is an slightly upscale KBBQ place, located across from Foodland Farms Ala Moana and right next to Totoya. My friend took me there today saying this is his favorite restaurant for Naengmyeon, 냉면 or korean cold noodle. If you go during lunchtime (11a-3p), you can take advantage of their lunch specials. I had the cold noodle combo, non-spicy cold noodles with beef bulgogi. I loved both dishes, and I couldn't finish the bulgogi, so took that and leftover banchan enough to fill me up for another meal later this week. 10/10 would return again, and definitely love the lunch deals.

    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.

    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.

    Found this spot after a nice Kspa treatment. Service, ambience, food were all top notch. Banchan assortment was exceptional. Will definitely make it a point to come back soon!

    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!

    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!!

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!!

    Overpriced. Better food on island for less. Servers continued to force cooking the food. Not worth a premium experience

They have free parking in the small lot right outside their restaurant, but there is also paid parking across the street. We were lucky, and people were leaving as we got there. For 7 of us, we got the rabokki, meat jun, half order of bossam, and kimchee pancake. This was more than enough food for everyone, and we probably would have skipped the kimchee pancake next time. The food was really good, and I would definitely recommend the bossam if you're with a group. The meat is super soft and flavorful, and even the half order was a generous portion. We also ordered the lemon soju and yogurt soju pitchers. They have tablets for you to order the food, which was super convenient. The food comes out pretty quickly, and the service is friendly. Overall, would recommend here for good Korean food and fun vibes.

The restaurant gives off Korean pub vibes, decently sized, and best suited for smaller groups. We ordered a variety of food: chicken combo, kimbap, bulgogi, bossam, and spicy rice cakes. The food was very delicious. My favorite was the bulgogi because it was tender and flavorful. I also enjoyed the spicy rice cakes, but I wish they gave a bigger portion of it.. The chicken was okay, but not something I'd order again. The spicy sauce was drenched all over the chicken and was very spicy. The regular crispy chicken didn't have enough salt for me and was overcooked.

However, since I was in the area, my partner and I decided to give it another shot...and now I'm hooked In fact, I went three times last month. Not only is the food amazing, but the service is on another level. Everyone is incredibly friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend calling ahead for reservations. My go-to order is always the poke and kalbi, and the third dish depends on whatever my partner is craving that day. Parking can be a little challenging, but I promise it's worth it. Everything we've tried has been absolutely delicious. If I could, I'd eat here once a week! It's currently my partner's and my favorite spot. 10/10, highly recommend!

    We are extremely disappointed with our recent experience…read more We've been loyal customers and typically eat here twice a week whenever we're on assignment on the island in the last five years. We have also left two previous positive reviews because we've genuinely enjoyed the food and wanted to support this small business. Earlier this week, we ordered the bulgogi for our kids, but the meat was too chewy and tough making it inedible. Wanting to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt, we ordered the bulgogi again the following day and even requested it be cooked well done. Unfortunately, it had the same too chewy and tough texture, and again, could not be eaten. After feeding the kids something else, bathing them, and putting them to bed, I called the restaurant around 10:00 p.m., but they had already closed. I called the next day, and the owner (a lady with glasses) returned my call. Instead of listening to my concerns, she repeatedly interrupted me and spoke in a passive-aggressive, dismissive manner. I was on speakerphone with four other adults in the car, and everyone commented on how unhelpful and condescending the conversation felt. I explained that I wasn't calling simply to complain - I wanted to share feedback because we genuinely care about the restaurant and have supported it for a long time. I even mentioned that I had previously provided constructive feedback about the takeout bowls, which the restaurant later improved. Before I could finish, she cut me off and said, "We're not talking about the to-go bowls right now, are we? We're talking about your bulgogi." She insisted that if I wanted a refund, I needed to return to the restaurant in person, and that if something was wrong in the future, I should come back immediately so they could remake it. Unfortunately, that's simply not realistic for us. We're staying in a hotel with two young children, and the restaurant is about 40 minutes away. By the time we discovered the problem, got the kids settled, and called, making another round trip would have meant roughly 80 minutes of additional driving with tired, hungry children. I understand that mistakes happen, and I wasn't expecting perfection. What disappointed me most was how the concern was handled. This business does not value customer feedback and will never first listen respectfully, even from repeat customers who have consistently supported and recommended them. Sadly, based on this experience with both the food quality and the customer service, we won't be returning.
