Once the waitstaff understood that we were there to eat our hearts out, they kept the bottomless accouterments coming! At one point, we had 4 different waitstaff stopping by our table every five minutes to bring us more of something delicious. Everything was fresh and good quality. Know before you go: 1. Make sure you know what's included in your order and what's extra. The waitstaff is more than happy to help make sense of it all. 2. Come wearing stretchy pants! You will undoubtedly eat more than you intended! 3. Bring your own hand wipes. The paper towels provided just don't cut it! I mean, it's BBQ! Plan on getting messy. Between the healthy portions, attentive waitstaff, and the casual atmosphere that teeters on gritty, we had an amazing culinary experience! I would definitely come back to this restaurant.

Kang Ho Dong is a Korean ex-wrestler turned comedian. Due to a tax evasion scandal in 2011, he took a temporary hiatus from entertainment and focused on other ventures. His first U.S. restaurant Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong opened in L.A.'s KTown back in 2012. It's a very successful chain now, and today you can find locations all over like Sydney, Shanghai, and San Jose. I don't know if he's still affiliated with 678 Korean BBQ, but his name (강호동) and likeness is still used on signs and menus. This is not an AYCE kind of establishment, everything is a la carte. Prices are high, but still less expensive compared to the States. One strip of marinated short rib was ₱1350 or $23.86 USD; two strips of galbi are about $56.00 USD at their SoCal locations. The meat quality was fine, though some pieces were on the fattier side. Staff members will grill everything at the table. I did not like the rice, which was old and hard to chew. You will find 678 Korean BBQ at SM by the BAY, which is a dining area and amusement park by the water. It's a part of Mall of Asia, which is the largest mall in the Philippines and the sixth largest in the world.

They have 2 dipping sauces (soy and spicey), lettuce available without extra charge, and your typical banchan. The waiters cook the food at the table for you, once they are done you need to flag them down if you need anything (additional drinks, meat, boxes, check) though the workers are just standing around.

We used to be regular customers there so we knew our meat. Our visit at this new branch redeemed us as regular customers again. We were so happy to be surprised by the extra space they have at the back; you'd think the branch is small if you only took a peek from the outside. It was a bit warm at first but they adjusted the aircon later on. Walls were painted black even in the restroom. Overall place looked simple and had that hole-in-the-wall vibe. Cleaning the front windows looks necessary though it amusingly matches the restaurant vibe. Service was good since they always got what we needed at fair waiting times. Refills came back loaded with food and the water pitcher really kept the service water cold. The free veggie leaves, dips, side dishes, steamed egg, and soup were impressive to the eyes and tongue. Be careful with the steamed egg because the bowl was insanely hot! We ordered two meats ala carte and they were excellent both in texture and flavor! To the management team: Thank you for impressing us, and we can only hope and wish you maintain the good quality of your food and service. Forget what I said about the windows; they still pass! :p

We ordered the Korean Japchae and the Bundled Platter to share (includes Galbi, Ribeye Steak, Marinated Beef, Pork Belly and Bulgogi, all the sides, lettuce wraps and rice). All of the food was delicious! The meats were flavorful and cooked perfectly. Warm corn tea is served with your meal and I like that they cook all of the meats for you. Servers constantly came by to refill our side plates and drinks. This restaurant had a TV playing K Pop music videos too. The atmosphere in the restaurant is fun and it's definitely a good place to go with a group. Check it out!

I told the waiter and they immediately replaced the meat and apologized. It was disgusting yet for them to immediately resolved the problem was nice. Yet still unhealthy and unsafe seeing creatures crawling. I didn't eat the meat. The condiments were average. You have to ask for some dish that they don't offered. Like pickled radish, bean sprout, soup, rice is extra pay . They didn't let us pay for the rice and gave us free cofffee drink for the cockroach inconvenient. It's a nice restaurant yet attention needs to be addressed on safe handling and sanitation. Thank you .

We chose to have them grill the meat for us, and the first dish had an after taste of the gas they might have used. The second dish were the short ribs. They were very tasty, but unfortunately very chewy. I opted to eat the soups and vegetable dishes that we ordered. I enjoyed the egg pancake that we ordered. I like that they are open 24/7, but I wish their meat was more tender. I guess I am just accustomed to going to other Korean barbecue restaurants in which the meat is both tasty and tender. I liked that they had unlimited banchan (side dishes). It was nice that they gave us complimentary coffee at the end of the meal, although our birthday celebrant stated that the coffee tasted like it was from a 3-in-1 coffee packet. I thought that maybe they would have good desserts? Unfortunately, they do not have any desserts on their menu.

There was maybe a good 100 people when we arrived 5 min prior to them opening. We were placed in a nice glass enclosed VIP room for the 9 of us. And it was neat that each place setting had its own burner and hotpot so that you could individually cook your own stuff. The selections here are huge!!! They had rows and rows of food. From cooked food to uncooked food. Including seafood, beef, chicken, pork. They even had several types of noodles you can add into your hotpot from udon, to black squid ink pasta to other types. For goodness sakes they had about 4 different broth bases to use as ur liquid from fish stock, beef stock, chicken stock and regular hot water. The had an entire wall to ceiling area of just vegetables to add to your hotpot as well. Desserts they had a plethora of them from Korean style to hong Kong style to halo halo to ice creams and many other deserts. They had about 10 different non alcoholic juices and ice teas to try from which were all delicious. They also had about 5 different beers UNLIMITED beers to choose from and even a beer on tap!!!! They even had a tepenyaki type area to cook your foods as well as a sauce station with about 15 different dry seasonings and liquid sauces. Just incredible. Service tho was slow. There was a lot of people working so i dont know why it was slow. From topping off our broths to clearing our dishes. We had dishes piling up clear to the ceiling before they would be removed. Just not acceptable. Price wise to its the most expensive ive seen yet for an all you can eat in the manila area at 888 pesos. The amounts of food justifies the steep price. But i was just expecting quicker service. A good place to bring someone too if they r new to manila. For a quick second i was going to say that this place might rival the hotpot of Taiwan. But still the seafood in Taiwan is still a lot fresher and of better quality.

As soon as we arrived…read moredownstairs, one of the servers informed someone upstairs so our table would be ready shortly. Upon sitting down, all our side dishes were ready. One fun experience was making orders and calling service with the screen at the side of the table. Side dishes could use some improvement. There was hardly anything special about the California Maki, Ebi Tempura, Kani Salad, and most definitely the Buta Dumplings. Most were served at a temperature similar to what you'd get if they were left on the side for so long. I'll give some credit for the Spicy Beef Yakiniku, Spicy Sliced Pork Bouquet, Seasoned Egg, Chicken Liver, and ice-cream There was only one instance where they didn't serve a dish we ordered on the screen, so when the server arrived, they asked us to order again. Staffers were friendly and mostly attentive. The young girl who assisted us downstairs was a jolly one, and she's consistent because she looked the same even when I visited the neighboring establishments on different occasions.
