I went at lunch time and it was completely empty. The banchan was pretty good with many options. The kimchi was super bitter. My beef bulgogi was delicious. I only wish they carried Korean beer. read more

Korean Garden - Beef bulgogi - Korean Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

Hmmmm. I'm not saying that Montgomery has tons of options right now, but this place gives me the eeby jeebies! Atmosphere: cold and prison-like. I've never been to prison, but I don't want to start practicing either. The seating is probably set up to provide extra room in the serving space. I get it. But yikes! The lighting is super dull. Not like a romantic dull, but a zombie dull. No good. Service: something about it was just off. The waitress seemed like she was a robot. So awkward. The tea they served wasn't hot even though it was brought out in a kettle..(ummmm...Huh? A bunch of question marks there!) Not a fan of the service at all. Food: it was edible. The little dishes that usually come out BEFORE the food came out WITH the food. (Smacks forehead) I hate to leave one star, but I couldn't bring myself to add more. I'd be leaving a deceitful review. Would I recommend? Noooooooooope! Well I be back? No. You have Shilla and So Dong Gong if you want delicious Korean food. Glad I tried it though so that I don't ever have to wonder! read more

Found this place via Yelp and was not a let down at all! We were told this restaurant just opened (or re-opened) this week so when we stopped in at 6p for dinner, there wasn't anyone in there at all. However, The space was very clean and we were served immediately. We ordered some appetizers which came out quickly and were all tasty! Our main entrees were also very delicious - it's good, authentic, and appropriately spicy (which was pretty spicy) Korean food. I'm used to excellent Korean food that Mom cooks so I'm picky about eating out at a Korean restaurant - and this was VERY good. A plus is that the chef also has French-inspired and Chinese-inspired dishes on the menu, which were unique and different. Overall, we were very pleased with this place, 10/10 would highly recommend! It was like being in Korea again, not Montgomery read more

Korean Garden - Fried dumplings, seafood salad, seafood pancake, beet salad, kimchi, etc - Korean Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

It's hard to notice this restaurant, since its pretty set back from Vaughn Road. I only found this place because of my Korean classmate from AUM. Since he was born and raised in Korea, I asked him which Montgomery Korean restaurant is his favorite, and he responded with Korean Garden. The decor of this place is... let's say lacking. This is not the kind of place you want to take a girl to on a first date. However, the service is friendly and the food is good. I love the complimentary little dishes. Feel free to ask for more of your favorites, the waitress will keep it coming. I came here for lunch with my family. I got the bibimbop, which is comparable to what I've had in New York's Ktown. My mother-in-law got soondobu (spicy tofu soup) which comes spicier and bigger than the other Korean restaurants around. My husband got bulgogi (marinaded slices of beef sauteed with onions). He said that it was tasty but a bit small in proportions, but he was full anyways from the unlimited side dishes. read more

Food: 5 star Service : 5 star Price : 4 star I am pretty much love this place, they really have great service. They automatically refill my water even we didnt ask them(good thing) an they refill our side dish. They asking us "if i need anything every 5 minutes!" and important is that food taste great. I never taste this good kimchi soup ever! read more

Woohoo for this place! There are 3 Korean places in Montgomery that I am aware of and this one is superior by far! I love the spicy squid! The food is perfection and the owner & wait staff are great! read more

We got the course meal A and steamed dumplings between 2 of us. I could not have been more satisfied taste and filling wise. MORE than delicious. We got the mackerel which came with a few fish in a sauce with some veggies and potatoes and it was *chefs kiss*. All the side dishes are incredible, and I'm truly not one to venture out and try many different dishes. Give it a try, you will absolutely NOT be disappointed. You'll be full with a few to-go boxes for less than $40 between 2 people. Very happy. Service took a bit longer than a general sit down, chain food restaurant, but there was only one VERY sweet, very kind woman serving AND cooking AND waiting on us. read more

This restaurant is very nice!! Especially, food is great!! Less MSG. Better than local restaurant I love this place so so so much. read more

I thought it was going to be a bad decision to eat here and that we might end up walking out. We waited about 10 minutes to order, my Diet Coke was flat, and David's beer was bottled in 2009. Then, the table that arrived after us got plates of panchan while we still had none. Then our luck turned. David's beer was replaced, and the panchan, along with our orders, arrived all together. The peanuts, pickled daikon, and kimchee were great. And they made my tofu stew without any meat or seafood, as I requested. David had beef bibimbap and really liked it. The service is friendly, but they could use more of it. The place filled up, and the waitresses were running around trying to get the food out. That's no good. But the food was wonderful. Check this place out. read more

Thank goodness for Yelp. I wouldn't have found this little gem otherwise. It is a little off the main road and it's located in a strip mall but once inside, you can smell the food. DELICIOUS! Also all the people eating inside are Asian (a good sign). The decor is not showy with alot of decorations but don't let that deter you from entering. The service is fast and friendly. I don't know if it is family-owned but it felt like it. She helped me order. I highly recommend the bulgogi and any of the soups and stews. The side dishes were pretty amazing too! GREAT PLACE!! HIghly recommend. Wish they were in Chicago where I live. read more

I went here with my sister and her friend for dinner and it was pretty good. We love Korean food so we decided to check this place out. I ordered the Bibimbop with no beef. It was good and comparable to Bibimbop from other Korean restaurants. My sister ordered the spicy squid and she said it was really good ( the veggies in the dish included green peppers, onions, and carrots). My sister's friend ordered the bulgogi and really liked it. The side dishes were rather lacking. The kimchi and spicy cucumbers were good but the other sides weren't nearly as good as other Korean restaurants we have been to. This restaurant has fountain drinks which is nice because some restaurants like this serve cans of soda. The service here was not terrible but not great. I had to ask for refills of water every time but that isn't enough to say the service was bad. The waitress was nice and our food was hot when they brought it out. All in all this restaurant is pretty good but I gave it three stars because the side dishes weren't that great. read more

I've eaten in most of these in MGM; this is the best. A single native Korean lady prepares it all to order. The only reason for 4 stars is the attentiveness of service. The restaurant is often filled with large groups of Koreans from the Hyundai plant; they just need more servers. read more

Great Korean restaurant. The service is friendly. But, it still not better than Orange Korean restaurant used to be on ATL HWY.

One word... Horrible. Food was a disgrace to the Korean people. My wife's seafood was hard, it hurt her teeth to chew it. At the cash register we told them that and their response was, " you should have ordered something softer". I had the chicken fried rice. It's hard to mess that up, but guess what. They did! I doubt it was fried, the carrots were still cold. The service was even worse. We saw our waitress twice, once to order and once when we got our food. We were never asked what we would like to drink, we just received one glass of tea and one glass of tap water. Good luck if you need something else to go with the tasteless food, because chances are you won't get it. read more

My friends and I always go during lunch the price is very reasonable. Good food, staff is nice. My fave is beef bulgogi.

I'm half Korean and was raised on Korean food. The food was decent, fresh and prepared in a timely fashion. After about 10 minutes, it was obvious that they cater to the local Koreans working here. I have been to several countries during my 23 years in the military, and traditionally Americans are used to "service". When we needed something, I merely called for the waitress and they promptly took care of us. The service was not what we are used to in the US, but it's status quo oversees. If.. This place wants more business and repeat "American" customers they have to modify their customer service model! read more

This is a pretty place with small curtained private rooms for parties of 6+ and sectioned off private tables for parties of 2+. Our meal got rolled in on a cart and was accompanied with 8 small complimentary side dishes (kim chee, eggplant, bean sprouts, radish,white rice, mushrooms, etc). We had pork dumpling appetizer, followed by a tangy beef and rice dish and a cold noodle dish (can't remember the Korean names for them.) Portions were huge and our entire bill came to $34. Server was very polite and helpful although English is definitely a struggle for all the help here. We were the only Anglos as the rest of the patrons were all Asians. This is a fun dining experience. read more

The worst Korean restaurant I had ever been to. The waitresses are VERY UNFRIENDLY with bad attitude. They don't speak or understand English very well, but they are arrogant. I ordered something, but they gave me another one without asking. No smile, no positive attitude, I won't be there another time. read more

This place is very nice and clean. The food is very good compared to other Korean food I've had. The clientele were all Korean and the waitress didn't speak English. The service was the worst I have experienced in a long time but the food was spicy and it didn't take very long to arrive. I attribute the poor service to me being a 6'4" tall gringo with a red beard. I would go back anytime. Sometimes it's nice just to be left alone. read more

Great korean food. Was a first time experience but wad still a good one.

Great food. Nice people. A bit on the spicy side if you like spicy. Been here multiple times. To go is also good

I'm a korean american, and this food was TERRIBLE. they are so cheap (regarding the quality of the food), and the ingredients are not authentic or tasty whatsoever. i will never go here again out recommend this place to anyone i know. terrible service, too. waitress couldn't answer any of my questions about the ingredients in the dish i wanted. read more

Both the entries and vegetable side dishes taste authentic, such as their seafood hot pot. The waitresses are not unfriendly, but they seem very busy all the time... read more

All of the staffs have terrible attitude, and they don't smile and the food is not good at all. Horrible service! I don't think I will come back next time, and I will not recommend my friends to go there. I regret to pay for the tips to them! read more
