There are a few tables on the left when you walk in, with additional seating upstairs. I ended up ordering the 15-piece beef and pork dumplings. I wanted them half fried and half steamed. They normally don't allow half-and-half orders, but since my friend ordered a dish that came with steamed dumplings, they made an exception for me. :) Thank you! They give you a buzzer when your order is ready. When I got my food, it looked delicious. The dumplings came with a side of homemade soy sauce that was slightly sweet but really good. The dumplings tasted fresh and homemade. My favorite were the fried dumplings, for obvious reasons, everything tastes better fried. They have plenty of other items on the menu, and I'll definitely be back to try them. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for tasty homemade dumplings. * Outdoor dining available * Parking on premises * Free water from the self-service dispenser * Frozen dumplings available for purchase

For a restaurant named after Korean BBQ, I'm slightly ashamed to admit I've never tried their…read moremeats. That said, this restaurant is one of few decent Korean spots outside of Fort Lee and Palisades Park. As such, it's become a return spot for our family members who live fairly local. As soon as you sit down, the default beverage offered is warm barley tea (which is much appreciated during those colder winter visits). The banchan, or side dishes, are few but a little more robust here than other Korean restaurants. During my last visit, we were given plates of standard kimchi, sprouts, and seasoned broccoli. I was also surprised to find pumpkin-egg salad, soy marinated lotus root, and soy-marinated ribeye pieces. The offerings change a little from visit to visit, but they're always decent to downright delicious. While I've not been wowed by anything from the menu, I've found most of the meals to be predictable. Hot stone bibimbap is my regular order, and I love the different proteins they offer here for mixed rice dishes. For those curious about the barbecue but unwilling to pay the high sticker price for a full entree, you can try the galbi, bulgogi, and spicy pork atop a bibimbap. During my last visit, I was delighted by the salmon hot stone bibimbap, which came with a great teriyaki marinade. My regular complaint with Seoul Galbi's bibimbap is that the hot stone has never gotten hot enough for my rice to char and crisp (which is arguably the best part of ordering it on a hot stone. Otherwise, why else would one pay the elevated prices?). When it comes to decor and ambiance, the restaurant is fairly no frills. As far as service goes, the waitresses have always been quick - quick to order, quick to serve, and quick to refill glasses (or, when asked, the side dishes). I also appreciate how slow they are to deliver the check, allowing conversations to linger. When my family and I came with a cake for a family member, the auntie serving our table not only came by with extra plates and silverware, she clapped and sang the 'Happy Birthday' song as boisterously as we.

We had an extremely dissapointing lunch at The Plating. My wife made a reservation for two couples,…read moreand we specifically noted in the reservation that we'd need a high chair for our friends' 9-month-old baby. We also picked an earlier lunch time to be considerate and keep things quieter. Our friends arrived less than 10 minutes late (because, baby), and we had barely sat down and started talking when a staff member (possibly the owner) abruptly told us we had to order immediately due to "capacity issues." The restaurant was empty at the time, so this came off as unnecessary and hostile. She was speaking in Korean to my wife, but the tone was clearly rude and abrasive (which my wife later confirmed). It got worse when she insisted we couldn't have both a high chair and a stroller and then took the high chair away - even after the baby's mom asked to keep it. We were seated in a back corner against two walls, and there were obvious, customer-service-oriented ways to position the stroller and high chair without blocking walkways. Instead, we were treated like an inconvenience and the employee / owner went out of her way to make our lives more difficult. The food might be fine, but the service and attitude completely ruined the experience. I won't be returning. I'd give 0 stars if I could.

I don't usually eat rice at restaurants, but I finish most of it because I feel terrible not finishing. It was that tasty. The side dishes were perfect in taste and plentiful.

Reservations are highly recommended.

It's located on Grand Avenue in Englewood, nearby the Brownstones apartments, the Gym, and other small businesses. It's convenient for families and businesses in the area looking for a clean, homemade Korean lunch and side dishes and stews to take home for dinner. Finally! A Korean banchan store in Englewood! No need to go all the way to Palisades Park anymore. I loved their squid kimbab and fish pancakes. I can tell that they use quality ingredients and the food is made with love. I can tell the difference with the taste and quality compared to most Korean banchan stores on Broad Ave. I bought some other banchan that I can't wait to try. The staff are not only kind but dedicated to serving the community with clean, delicious, authentic food. Mamison is a hidden gem and worth your next visit!

Mamison stands apart because the owners themselves prepare the food and curate their own recipes. They are very few and far between as a catering business cuz they don't skimp out on quality ingredients. There's at least 20 catering joints in NJ bergen county. They all taste the same to me. OD-ed on msg and sugar. Same basic ass ingredients. But this one's diff. You'll need to taste it to know.

But my shout-out goes to the amazing server who not only expertly handled the BBQ but was also kind and considerate. She brought my friend a bib to protect her white shirt from getting stained! So thoughtful. Overall a wonderful dinner. BBQ is expensive, like at all other Korean restaurants. No surprise. Dong Bang Grill has been our go-to restaurant for traditional Korean food for decades, so I recommend that you give it a try. Valet parking. You do have to climb a flight of stairs. Unsure if they have ADA access from another part of the building.

About $8.50 a container. We got some calamari appetizers and marinated beef to pan fry as well. Make some fresh rice at home and voila!

You would have to be in Palisades Park area to be able to "choose" from a multitude of Korean restaurants!!!!!

Americans would wonder how many there can be, but trust me ... all sorts of varieties. Our personal preference goes for mostly "kimchi" since we haven't had the pleasure of trying the other "banchans". They all look decent though.
