THE OG of Korean food. Easy parking outside but keep in mind it shares with the other businesses. Worse case there's street parking. Booth seating inside and ambience is not your typical upscale or super clean spot. Hahah Service was normal no issues at all. Food: Meat jun, ample refillable banchan dishes, kalbi short ribs, seafood pancake, etc. read more

This is still my favorite yakiniku place. I returned here with my husband and friends since 2017. This past weekend in March 2025, the seats and upholstery look unchanged. Not loud and no club vibe, just a pleasant place to eat and you don't have to shout to be heard. I highly recommend this down to earth Korean restaurant! Attentive service, the host and waitress refilled our drinks and checked on us. Plenty of booth seating. They did well with the overhead vents and invested into their customer service and food presentation. If they find the time to upgrade some of their torn seats, they'd be super fine. read more

This is my second time coming here, first was take out love the food, been a long time and second time we are dining in. Service was really great all Banchan was made in restaurant, food was delicious even though I haven't been here for 2 years the food is still the same. I gets pack really fast, it was a full house by the time I left. It's the same as you go to Gen, they have the grill if you order the set menu will try that next time. As I said you have several Banchan with your food you will be stuff by the time you leave this place. Very friendly all ages comes and go in this store, we have some family's and elders having lunch and group of friends too, it was lively. Come check it out won't recommend anything since all of the food has been good for the last few times I came here. read more

My mom dined here and they charged her for a higher tip than she left. Looking at other reviews, it looks like people have been harassed for tips as well - in her case, they charged her card a higher amount than she wrote on the receipt. When she called to complain about it, instead of providing a picture of the receipt, they told her she needed proof. She was able to get a statement from the card company and they refunded her the difference once she jumped through all of these hoops. read more

Hidden behind busy Keeamoku street is one of the family of Korean Restaurants with amazing food and tons of seating. We walked so we didn't use the parking stalls in the back of the restaurant reserved for Millions. Here's what we ordered: Mandoo: generous and overfilled pockets of pork and veggies fried to perfection. (Fun fact: their sister restaurant is located on Beretania and Punahou under the senior housing where they sell bulk mandoo frozen or made to order ) Kalbi and BBQ chicken: Cooked to perfection with a little bit of char but not enough to ruin the flavors. Meat was tender and very flavorful. Meat jhun: prepared very well with a nice piece of meat inside and the egg batter outside. The dipping sauce complimented it well. Sides: Bean sprouts, Kim Chee, cucumbers, potato salad, and spicy mochi/jello (I can hear my Korean bestie yelling at me that I am not getting the name right) all were amazing. Service: top notch. Treated us like family. So glad this restaurant is here. Now to finish dinner. It was packed tonight. Come by and keep this place open! read more

I love that they have KBBQ combo for 2 that have both beef and pork. Their sauces are always on point and banchans really take you back to Korea. Million is now my go to for KBBQ and service has always been great. read more

We went about 10pm seeking a place for soju and "anju." What a great place for it. Mandu was very tasty. Kimchi was ripe and yummy for mandu. The jigae was so flavorful and perfect with rice. The bahn chans were tasty too, so definitely need to come back to try their other dishes. Service was very good. Server was very informative and friendly. read more

"Slice-of-life it is. Yes. It almost veered toward thriller, but you're the slice-of-my-life type." - K-Drama I've passed Million a million times in my life, but as far as I know never stepped in once. Million Restaurant is located on Sheridan St. in the older part of the area. It's been here what seems like a million years. I finally decided to visit between meetings. Shoutout to Traci R. & Jisoo, my IRL homies, for the nudge. You don't have to be a millionaire or look like Thurston Howl III to enter... all you need is a good attitude, have a big appetite, and be willing to smell like KBBQ an hour after your meal. Plus, Jisoo is hundred Korean so when she told me to go... since I'm into Meat Jun! I Go! I actually was at Ala Moana Center zooming calls when it was time for lunch, so I just walked a couple blocks and Million Restaurant is still there between discount cigarette stores, former strip clubs, and a kennel! Yup! This has to be legitimate or my Korean friends have some explaining to do. I enter the Disco era, but clean, restaurant. I am greeted and seated towards the entrance which is actually a good spot to smell less like KBBQ after my meal :D Menu handed over. I came in for the Lunch Specials and that's exactly what I got. Instead of only getting the Meat Jun, I decided on the Combo of Meat Jun & BBQ Chicken. All Combos and Main Dishes come with Banchan, a generous amount of Banchan (side dishes) I may add! Banchan comes out first with Miyeok (Seaweed Soup). Oh K-Boy! That Potato Salad tho! Oh! Auntie gave me extras since "I'm a growing boy!" :D And minutes later the Combo of Meat Jun & BBQ Chicken is staring at me! Oh my! I can tell I'll be dreaming of K-Dramas all week after this lunch! One bite of the Meat Jun made me a believer that Million has the best Meat Jun in Honolulu! So generous, so flavorful, so "Hawaii Koreans Only" authentic! K-appetite satisfied! Bam! In the end, I recommend Million Restaurant if hankering for some Korean comfort foods! There's a sister location on Kapiolani now, but tho it's more modern the prices reflect the upgrade too. Im okay with the original Million w/ family friendly employees, I mean even Grandma spoke fluent Korean to me! Hella and I only know how to say I love you 사랑해요 "saranghaeyo" ahh so that's why she smiling ;D Thanks to Traci R. & Jisoo for leading me here. And dedicated to my bestie, Kyra K. cause she got Seoul! read more

Meat Jun! Generous portions and so good! Had the combo plate tonight with..... meat jun and fish jun. I also ordered the Sondubu. It came with different banchan, rice and a small bowl of seaweed soup. The meat jun is so tender and packed with so much flavor. Portion was generous. Fish jun was also tasty and portion was also generous. It was also served with a side of shredded cabbage topped with a dollop of dressing. Service quick, attentive as they have several staff assisting. Order taken, banchan brought out and food followed about 10 minutes later. Perfect! If your looking for a fancy dinning experience, this is NOT your place. It's a no frills place filled with people that love this place for its nostalgia. This location is the original. They have a location on Kapiolani Blvd which is newer. read more

Food was very tasty. Service great. The food comes out pretty fast. The inside is very airy and roomy. It's a big place and there are side rooms for parties. We've only eaten here three times for lunch after Zumba. I've had the kimchi soup lunch special. It was yummy, very tasty and not too spicy hot. It was served in a hotpot as well so the soup stays hot! read more

Million Restaurant - Kalbi rib lunch special. Very tasty! Restaurant is nice and roomy.. - Korean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

One of my co-workers wanted soup (and to visit Sam's Club) so we ended up at Million, on Sheridan. Parking is usually a challenge but he found a spot right across from the entrance. We wound our way through the restaurant to a table at the Kapiolani end. Galbi / Kimchi chigae for him; Spicy Squid over rice for another and Chicken / Meat Jun Combo for me. There were four kinds of banchan (kimchi, bean sprouts, cucumber kimchi and the whitish, gelatinous Nokdu-muk). The food comes pretty quickly and is fine ... not special, but then, neither is the price. My only quibble with my order was I don't like the Thousand Island dressing on the cabbage slaw. Otherwise, my plate had more than chicken and meat jun to satisfy me. The spicy squid dish looked tasty but my co-worker would have preferred (udon) noodles instead of the rice. Each lunch was $15.95 or $16.95; reasonable in today's inflationary economy. read more

I love their potato salad! read more

The meatjun and bbq chicken is my go to when I come here to dine in, the owner and her son/nephew are very friendly and attentive as they are our server. When I walk in here, it feels like I'm in a real Korean vibe restaurant even though I've never personally been to Korea myself, but I do watch lots of videos involving their culture. This is the spot I recommend if you really want amazing meatjun. read more

We ordered takeout. We called in the order of the meat Jun kalbi combination as well as the cold noodles + side order of kimchi and by the time we arrived to pickup it was all ready. Portion sizes were great and the meat jun is a must try. If you're craving Korean food, this place will hit the spot. We will definitely be back read more

this is my second time here. I had a good experience the first time and came the other day with my friend who's leaving the islands. I didn't get to take too many great pictures, but the food is pretty good. we ordered the B set for the yakiniku, side steamed egg, kimchi pancake and toppogi. the set came with cow tongue (my fav!!), pork belly, beef skirt steak, onion (soooo sweet after you grill it), some king oyster/ trumpet mushrooms (i wish they cut them thicker sliced), and thinly sliced beef. The steamed egg was only ok (for me). I prefer it a little bit more runny and with a stronger fish sauce/broth taste. Their steamed egg was almost like a denser Japanese chawanmushi. It was good but it wasn't like "OMG" Their kimchi pancake was sooooo good!!! i loved the crispy edges. I'd definitely order those again when I visit again. The toppogi was so soft and had a nice kick to it. read more

best banchan and full menu for every appetite. We love it here and although there are the staples of meat jun, kalbi and bbq ckn like other options for takeout, they have some really great authentic korean dishes! I dont know the name, but I just tried the cold noodle for the first time and I will def order again. Very refreshing with apples but the black noodle texture was really nice and chewy! kalbi tang is our fave hot soup with the meat so soft! they were our ot mandoo which is also my fave but didnt go wrong ordering the seafood pancake instead. always consistent and you can also order a nice soju or cold beer if youre in the mood for an alcoholic beverage read more

Just as I'm skeptical about authenticity of any Vietnamese restaurants without a number in them (Pho 29, Pho 87, etc), I'm super skeptical about any Korean restaurants that do not bear some Asian sounding name. And, "Million" doesn't sound like Korean at all, so I go in with skepticism. Despite its name, the location and the front signage looks and feels like an authentic restaurant in the backstreets of Busan. My first visit was disappointing. Mandu soup was at best mediocre as mandu didn't taste good at all. I don't relent. I did come back for a second time to try other dishes, and I'm glad I did. Kimchi soup was delicious, and the meats (kalbi, chicken, bulgogi) were good. Kalbi was especially tangy and soft. Sizzling bibimbop bowl left me with, oh yes, crunchy yummy noo-rung-ji. This restaurant a part of a local semi-franchise with big numbers (there is another Million on Kapiolani and Billion on Waialae). Any of these big number Korean restaurants will serve you well. One on Kapiolani is more upscale than the other two. Billion on Waialae has a small parking lot that is barely functional but at least there's available parking. No parking for this Million. Perhaps it should have been called Thousand. You can park at Ala Moana mall and take a short walk. It will be good for your health to have the after-meal walk back as well. I will continue my patronage to this million, billion, and hopefully trillion franchise in Honolulu. read more

Five stars! Highly recommended. A great, old school Korean restaurant. The food is high quality and the service is friendly and great too! Lately, I've been getting the Bi Bim Bap, either the hot stone pot one or the regular one. Both are excellent and has a great taste to it. The marinated veggies are soft and crunchy. The Kochiju sauce makes it a perfect combination with the hot rice on the bottom. I usually mix everything up, making it an ono mash of everything. It fills me up and doesn't pack on the pounds. Yes, I go meatless. The parking is the the rear (but it's usually full). There is metered street parking, but it'll cost you some coins. The food prices are reasonable and not expensive. I personally like the sides, the Kim Chee & potato mac. Great stuff! All in all, if you want great local Korean food, come to Millions. Great stuff! read more

Came here on a 4th of July weekend, it's not busy but we still made a reservation ahead of time just in case. Two thumbs up on the food. Bibimbap is amazing, I really like the toasted rice and the serving is huge. Good for 2-3people. I really like Korean chicken wings, very saucy and still taste good on second day. They have the best Kim chee pancake, it's crispy outside. Meat jun plate it's beef cooked with egg. It's a bit sweet and savory very interesting and tasty. If you want to do kbbq they have it and it's really good too. Honestly I love everything they have in here. Every bite is worth it. Service was great, very friendly and always checking on us if everything is good. Highly recommend this place. read more

service is great. Was greeting pleasantly and seated quickly. Menu options are standard local and traditional Korean dishes. Prices are on the higher end but the quality and quantity of what we were given was great! Parked outside (metered street parking) and wasn't very confident leaving my car there as there was a lot of broken glass in the area. Not ideal parking situation but didn't want to risk parking in private lot across the street. There is a public parking just off of Piikoi and around the block from the restaurant. Looking forward to returning. read more

Million Restaurant - Korean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I have been eating here for years and I must do a review. From dine in to takeout, millions is consistent every time. The flavor is always there sooo sooo delicious! Had takeout last night for dinner and the food was excellent, (ship jeom manjeome ship jeom!) if ya know what I mean! Ordered kimchi chigae with pork belly, seolleongtang, vegetable bi bim bap, and fried mandoo. Also, got so much side dishes too...thank you! It didn't come with potato salad but there's is the BEST hands down! When eating a sizzling spoonful of spicy chigae, that big spoonful of cold potato salad hits the spot, yum! I've ordered their dokbokki, kalbi tang, and various bbq plates before and my oh my...perfect!!! I will surely continue to dine in here! Thank you Millions, you have and will continue to be a favorite. When finishing up a meal from here, it'll definitely make you say, " !"

Food is good and very flavorful. Service is hit or miss. Yes they are busy and I understand that. They do rush and don't check in. You have to waive them down if you need anything. But one time we came here there was a younger Korean kid, when we waived him down or tried to ask for something he would say, "just a minute" and never come. He would keep passing us and saying that. Never visited our table once. We were lucky to have the guy in the kitchen come out and bring us one stuff we needed. He is the best they got! Steamed egg is amazing here tho! Get it!! read more

I remember this place back in the day when I used to stay out until 2am lol. This Korean restaurant stayed open late so I remember before heading home had to fill my stomach and sober up. Today stopped by for lunch I called first to make sure they had inside dinning and they did. Of course they practice social distancing and take temperature check before you enter. I ordered their Meat jun and BBQ chicken and it was ok the meat jun was soak with the sauce and the egg batter was real wet. I prefer a little more egg on the meat. Although the meat was very tender and the bbq chicken was marinated perfectly. My wife had their Spicy Pork and it wasn't spicy at all and also she said it was a little rubbery. The sides was consist of Kim Chee, Bean sprout , potato salad , seaweed, and fish cake. The lunch special very reasonable and it comes with seaweed soup.

Pretty decent korean spot in Honolulu. I went on a Wednesday night and it wasn't busy at all. Food came out relatively fast, except the bibimbop. I went an hour before closing so I was pretty hungry so the food definitely hit the spot. The bibimbop took the longest to come out and stayed really hot the entire time. It was so hot that I couldn't eat most of it and saved more than half of it just so it could cool down. Otherwise the flavors were all there. read more

Not the mention, their banchan it excellent. If you have a chance, definitely check them out! They also have another location on Kapiolani which has a lot more parking since it's a private lot.

Don't judge a book by its cover. This little hole in the wall has been a favorite for locals for many years. Personally, I've been coming to this restaurant for over 20 years. The staff is always friendly and you can park on the street in front of the restaurant or behind in the lot. Million offers a wide selection of Korean dishes such as soups, noodles and plates but I normally go there for the yakiniku. They have four different yakiniku sets to choose from or you can order ala carte. Included in the sets are seaweed soup, rice, salad and banchan. As I mentioned this is a hole in the wall so it's not a new, fancy restaurant or trendy. But, if you want good Korean food at a reasonable price with friendly staff, Millions is hard to beat! read more

First time to Million with a few friends. My friend recommended as she loves the cold noodles and kalbi combo. I can never turn down korean food! I've only thought about Million as a yakiniku place but they have an extensive menu with something for everyone. Choose between classic dishes like soondubu, bibimbap, kalbi, etc. This place is a "no frills" kind of restaurant - don't confuse it with their location on Kapiolani! Park behind the restaurant or if you're lucky, there may be a few street stalls in the front open. We arrived at 7 and had to wait 15-20 minutes. It was packed! I believe they take reservations so I would recommend that especially if you have a bigger party. I was determined to try something different than my usual picks at a korean restaurant so I decided on their ox tail soup. The meal comes with delicious banchan and seaweed soup to share. Our food came out pretty fast and once it came I was instantly hungry. The ox tail soup comes in a bone broth with a pretty bland taste. I remember seeing a video that you're supposed to season yourself with the provided salt and pepper they give you. They also give a shoyu/onion/jalapeno dipping sauce for the meat that gave it a nice flavor! Not your typical ox tail but equally as delicious! Not sure if it would be my choice again but I recommend trying it at least once if you're a fan of ox tail! My friends got the hot stone bibimbap and the cold noodles/kalbi combo. Both also looked delicious - I'll have to try those on my next visit. The restaurant does get a little hot and stuffy inside so dress accordingly...or maybe don't order a hot soup like me on a hot night... read more

The meat jun wasn't the typical meat jun that I'm accustomed to at other restaurants. The egg batter was so thick and separated from the meat. The chicken was good tho. The restaurant is in major need of an overhaul. The floors are sticky and the ventilation isn't working properly. You'll be smelling like Korean bbq the rest of the day. We had so much leftovers and ended up throwing it away. It's just not good. Also, there was a guy outside in the back where we parked peeling garlic. It's kinda dirty back there. Just sketch all around. Three stars because the server was friendly. read more
