    Princess was our waitress, she's attentive & gave us good suggestions what to order. We ate so much & was pretty full. We picked the more expensive option & it was a lot of food. We like the Hwaro sauce for dipping. The ice cream, sorbet, cheesecake desserts were good also. I like the sorbet more. Overall it was a very good Korean BBQ place, we discovered Hwaro through a YouTuber recommendation. Now we recommend you should try it too!

    Highly recommend this spot. Everything was BOBB! Our server Will was our server. He was super friendly and gave us the best service. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a great experience.

    First time here and definitely not the last the food was tasty and delivered with quick service by server Devin.

    The food was great!! Our server was Joshua and he was nice and patient with us. The atmosphere was great.

    It was an amazing experience the food came out fast and the server Devin always came to check up even on a busy day will be coming bac

    We love this place, this is our third time back to this location. The food is always on point, tasty, and one of the best AYCE Korean food we've had. Highly recommend a day or night out at this place definitely worth the money! Joshua took great care of us, super attentive and very friendly! Thank you again for a wonderful experience Hwaro on Spring Mountain!!

    I'm still thinking about this place because WOW. Hwaro seriously knocked it out of the park. From the moment we sat down, the service was impeccable, legit hands down some of the best service I've ever had. They changed our grill like 3x for us, checked in constantly, and the food came out quick. And this was on a busy Saturday night, with no wait! Unreal. Let's talk food because everything was amazing. My absolute favorites were the, Ribeye Bulgogi, (so tender, so flavorful) and the brisket, which was seriously soooo good too. PLEASE do not skip dessert--their Yuzu Sorbet, is a MUST TRY! It's refreshing, perfectly tart, and the perfect way to end a BBQ feast. Another must-try is their EDO sushi roll, YEP I said it they have sushi included in the $34 PREMIUM menu. Omg their green tea, tasted so authentic! They do have popular items like corn cheese, radish wraps, and affogato but just to note, they don't have other popular Korean bbq sides like fish cakes, rice wraps, or melon bars/mochi desserts. Honestly though... who needs all that when the food here is already insanely good? On top of all that, the restaurant itself is beautiful. The interior is modern and cozy with big booth seating, which makes it feel more private and comfortable. When you sit down, all the sauces and ICED water are right there on the table! Overall, amazing food, lightning-fast service, gorgeous space, and an experience that made me want to come back immediately. I can't wait to go back. Hwaro is the place.

    Last time I been here. Was before the renovation. Wheel it looked smaller and crowded. So let's start with the renovation. 5 out of 5. Love the new setup. Booths are more comfortable. Their is no big bench style tables in the middle. Replaced with more traditional style tables/booths. So the food is 4 out of 5. My favorite used to be the shake rice. Prepared in a metal tin. You shake it then open and eat it. Then I find out it's only available at hwaro2. But why? This is where it originated from! Also the portions have gotten way smaller than I remember or compared to some other places. Ordered beef belly and got like 5 slices. So make sure you order according. Service was 3 out of 5. 80% of my dine-in the single server seemed to be extremely busy but with only 4 tables. Then it seemed to be short change. And the new short asian guy was checking up on us every 5-10min. Refilled drinks. Took away our empty plates even before the busser got around to us. When our cooking plate looked like it was about to get burned. He said "let me change it out before your next wave of meat shows up". Little things like that go a long way

    Is Hwaro still an AYCE Restaurant? I heard it's not A Korean Restaurant but now a Japanese Restaurant. Please advise.

    This one is more Japanese, no Korean veggie cold appetizer side dishes here. But they have a lot of food to choose from. It's still great and will fill you up.

    Is it possible to make reservations in advance?

    No, it's 1st come and 1st serve

    Do they have vegetarian options?

    They have some veg. sides like miso soup and lettuce but nothing to replace meat/protein.

    Is this location closed for good?

    No it has reopened!

    Are you closed tonight? If so, when will you reopen?

    Is there a 2 person minimum?

    I believe so

    Do I have to make a reservation?

    They do not take reservations. It is a first come basis. They have a sign in sheet in the lobby area.

    Are you guys still open til 3?

    this hwaro closes at midnight ! :)

    Do they have lettuce, the kind to wrap the meat with?

    Yes they do have lettuce!

    Can I make reservations for group of 7?

    No it's a first come first serve bases. But when we went with a group of 7 around 1 am on Friday. We didn't wait that long and it was pretty immediate to get seated.

    Yes they are

    Do they take Apple Pay or cardless payments?

    yes, tap is available

    Do they happen to serve beer towers or like an alcoholic beverage tower of sort?

    I don't believe so but they do have alcoholic selections.

    Are there gluten free options?

    Yes. Just order meat and vegetables.

    How busy are they typically at 10 PM on a Sunday night? We have a large group (about 20 people). Would like to gauge how much tome to allot for waiting. Thank you!

    For a group that large you'd probably be looking at 1 1/2 to 2 hours wait. It's totally worth it though. With covid they might still have a limit on party numbers though so be careful, they have this thing where you can give them your number and… Read more

    Does anyone know if this restaurant is open? I call but no answer?

    They are. Lines are always busy so either call back to back or drive up and put your name on the waitlist because they don’t take reservations.

    How ahead in advance can I make a reservation?

    They don't take reservations. It's first come, first served.

    Can you order 2 bbq meats for a party of 4?

    As long as the meats are on the same menu for the price you are paying for then yes

    Do they still have the happy hour after 10pm?

    Yes, everyday. It's the late night special. Same price as the lunch special. About $20/person.

    Hands down the best BBQ in Vegas. I crave this place often!!!…read more I esp love the burnt ends. The pork ribs and sausage are my next favorite. Brisket is delicious too. You seriously cannot go wrong. I've yet to try the shrimp or turkey or chicken. The sides are all delicious too. My favs are the coleslaw. It has a mild honey mustard flavor which I love. The eggplant is insane. It has an Asian flavor which is my favorite. Corn muffins are fire and the pickles are delicious and available to buy by the jar which I have multiple times. They have some daily specious too like the burger which is fire. The musabi is soooo good. I wish they had it everyday. The pastrami sandwich is so good too. Is thick cut like brisket and doesn't taste like regular pastrami but still so good. I love this place

    I keep coming back, which says something in itself…read more Every Thursday they feature burgers, and they always have their signature Dandan: two 100% brisket patties quick-fried in tallow, topped with cheddar cheese and Dandan sauce on a butter-griddled brioche bun. This week they also offered two specials -- the Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions) and the Jalapeño Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions and jalapeños). The Dandan has been on my list for a while, so I finally pulled the trigger. I called around 11:30 a.m. and was promptly helped by a friendly employee. After a quick chat about which of the three was best, I went with the Jalapeño Oklahoma and a side of Brussels sprouts. I've had the sprouts before and really liked them -- they felt like a slightly healthier alternative to the usual fried sides. (Though when I arrived to pick up my order, it seemed like everyone else was happily devouring onion rings, which made me second-guess that choice.) As expected, there was a line stretching out the door. I quickly realized I was the only one actually waiting outside. Several people walked straight in, bypassed the line, and got helped right away. Turns out a group of 3-4 people had already ordered and were just hanging out inside in the AC while they waited. Lesson learned: if you've already placed your order, just walk in next time. While I waited, the staff brought out an ice-cold cup of their fresh cantaloupe juice. It's very sweet and genuinely delicious -- highly recommend. I took everything to go and ate at home, so I can't speak to temperature. The burger was big and loaded with meat and cheese -- you couldn't really see the jalapeños or onions at first, but they announced themselves with the first bite. The brisket patties cooked in tallow deliver a deep, rich beef flavor. They're a little firmer than a standard burger (as expected with brisket), so if you're someone who likes a lot of vegetables and toppings, this might not be your ideal burger. But if you're after a straight-up, beef-forward, no-frills experience, you won't be disappointed. The Brussels sprouts were excellent as always -- perfectly balanced with a sweet-tangy balsamic glaze. Let's be honest... I'll definitely be back. Next time I'm trying the classic Dandan -- and those onion rings.

    This is a solid barbecue joint. Service was great. Atmosphere is awesome…read more I had a two meat platter with an additional sausage link. I had the fatty brisket in the pulled pork. The sausage was a jalapeño cheddar sausage. For my side, I had mac & cheese and coleslaw. To start off, this is a great place. If I could give it 4 1/2 stars I would but I like to round up. Brisket is really good but a little dry in the mouth. Great Smoky flavor. The mouth-feel was just a little off. It was a little dry, but not bad. The pulled pork was wonderful. Nice Smoky flavor. Nice and tender and juicy. Felt great to chew in my mouth and did not feel dry. A+ for the Pork. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was amazing. Really well done. Flavor was great texture was great. Just a little kick, which was great. I always wish there was more kick, but I understand you got a cater to your customers. One thing I was kind of concerned about was the temperature of the coleslaw. It should be really cold, but it was just kind of a little bit of above lukewarm, but not really cold. Coleslaw should be cold. The mac & cheese was pretty good. Needs a little bit more liquid in it but the flavor was awesome. And it looks like they prepackage the Mac 'n cheese in containers and then sprinkle some cheese on top. That's a nice touch, but it makes the whole container of mac & cheese dry out. They only have one barbecue sauce. It was pretty good. But to me the best way to judge barbecue is if it doesn't eat barbecue sauce. And this did not need barbecue sauce. It was just a nice addition. Great ambience. Great music playing. Very clean and well kept area. I would definitely come back when I'm on this side of town.

    We decided to try this place today after hearing good things…read more First impression, I love the decor. Very Texas. Post Oak stored right inside the restaurant. It reminded me of a real Texas barbecue with the big picnic tables and communal seating. Very friendly and helpful staff. I had the 3 meat (chicken, baby backs, and jalapeno hot links) and the wife had the 1 meat (brisket) We shared some sides Mac n cheese, green beans, and fries. The chicken was very juicy and perfectly cooked. We both agree that the baby backs were some of the best we've ever had. The jalapeno/cheese links were delicious. The brisket was good. Still moist and juicy. They ask you if you want a lean or fatty cut on the brisket. She chose lean (I would have chosen fatty ) Their regular barbecue sauce made everything better. The green beans were delicious and perfectly seasoned. The baked beans were a tiny bit sweet. The fries were perfect. The mac and cheese had good flavor but the pasta was overcooked. Oh, I decided to try the banana pudding. GET IT! It's f*cking delicious! We will definitely be back!

    Came here with a party of 4, we got sat immediately. lt was almost a full house…read more When it was time to order they said they were out of chicken thighs. Mind you it was at 11:15 A.M. and it's a fried chicken restaurant, so that's absolutely ridiculous to me. We waited about an hour for our food to come out with no updates on anything. They could've said they were understaffed or they forgot to put in our order or something but no updates, absolutely nothing. I think they were even trying to avoid us because we're Asian. Also, a party was seated after us and left 10mins after. Honestly, we should've followed their lead. Chicken were 6.5/10; size of the chicken were huge I'll give them that. Chicken wings were smokey, salty and dry. Asked for them make it spicy; was not spicy at all. Their unlabel hot sauce (louisana hot sauce) were water down. They like putting cold watermelon on hot plates, no idea what that's all about. We also got And to top it all off it took about 10 minutes after we requested the check for it to arrive. If it weren't for waitress standing over us and watching how much I was going to put down for tip, I would've tipped 4 dollars max. We felt like they really needed the money so we tipped 18%. 10/10 will never come back. And I'll be telling my friends not to come either.
