    79. Half-Cold Naengmyeon

    Can't miss the building on Kapiolani with lots of parking! Stop by if you're craving authentic Korean style food to get your kalbi fix! Stopped by for lunch w a friend and prices are reasonable, with portions large enough to take home for lunch the next day. Service was friendly and quick. Lots of banchan to eat while you're waiting for your food. Casual dining, shorts and slippers ok! Each table has a grill if you're looking to cook your own.

    Kalbi lunch special
    Conni R.

    This makes a good lunch spot. Parking is free and there's always stalls open when we go. Love the fish jun! It's moist and meaty. Their regular meat jun is a little on the thin side and less moist, but it's good. Whichever "jun" you get, you'll like the sauce. The kalbi is a little on the chewy side; it's tasty, just wish it was more charred bbq style. The bulgogi and kalbi dolsut bibimbaps are better than expected - big portions and tasty. The mandu is expensive but worth it. Go during lunch when you'll get the best bang for your buck. It can be pricey but we still plan to check out dinner one day. The banchan is good (love their kimchi) and the service is always super friendly.

    This Million Restaurant is the one at Kapiolani and Ward, not the one on Sheridan. The restaurant is spacious and got plenty of parking outside. The food was good especially the meat. You could tell they don't serve cheap meat. I have dined here 3 times in the last 2 years and the quality has been very consistent. Service was also good. The only complaint is food was quite pricey but it is worth it for the quality of the food.

    Our Honolulu friends always bring visitors to Million, and I've known about it for a long time. We prefer their Kapiolani location. Staff treat you like family - many of the servers know and recognize our friends and check in on us. We made a reservation for 4 adults/one child on a Monday at 5pm (and stayed until 9!). Our favorites were the kurobuta pork, kalbi, and small intestine (our friend tried her first time and love it). Their bulgogi has to be cooked in the kitchen, not DIY. Their call button is super handy if you need help or top-offs. We loved the banchan and salad paired with all the grilled meats. We also got many rounds of beers and their soju cocktail pitcher (delicious). Nice to have our own small room with A/C. A bit hard to hear, but very comfortable. Parking is ample in their lot, and there were decent crowds throughout the night. For 4 people (including many drinks), the total came out to around $90 per person.

    Great Korean restaurant that opens late and provides good service. Food is ono and banchans were yummy. Perfect place to go to for a quick bite with the family

    Million Korean Restaurant - Delicious Food & Thoughtful Service We had a great experience at Million Korean Restaurant on Kapiolani. The food was flavorful, the meat quality was solid, and the service was especially thoughtful--especially for families with young kids. What We Ordered: - Japchae Noodles - Kimchi Jun - Rice with Vegetables & Beef in a Hot Stone Bowl - Million Set S1 - includes beef outside skirt, wagyu brisket, beef tongue, and shrimp (all raw, cooked at the table grill) Everything was very good. The meat from the Million Set was fresh and grilled up beautifully at our table. The hot stone bowl was a standout--the rice crisps up nicely if you let it sit, and you can even request the bowl extra hot if you love that crispy texture. Kid-Friendly Touches: They were incredibly accommodating to our 3-year-old daughter. They had a high chair ready, and even brought out a seaweed tofu soup special just for her, along with her own bowl, spoon, and fork. She loved it! It made the whole dining experience so much easier and more enjoyable. Extras: White rice came included with our dishes, which was a nice touch. Final Thoughts: We'll definitely be coming back. The food was delicious, and the staff went out of their way to make our daughter feel welcome. That kind of care makes a big difference when dining out as a family.

    Met some family friends here for lunch on a Sunday. They had a Lunch Special Menu. Our waitress was friendly. There was lots of tables available. The place was clean and quiet. I had the Meat Jun and Kalbi Special. You can also cook your own food. I think I would try that next time or recommend that.

    Parking: there's a front and back parking lot. The back lot is tandem parking. Limited amount of stalls. Service: The restaurant was fairly empty when we arrived and was seating quickly. Our food came out quickly. Mid way through our lunch the restaurant got crowded and we had to wait a long time for the check. Food: The food was delicious! I've been here several times and it never disappoints. The tofu soup was order as a "regular" spicy level and wasn't too spicy. You can order it spicy if you want to. The restaurant is clean, can get smoky if you are cooking on the grill.

    Multigrain Rice
    Kris G.

    I've been seeing posts for their lunch specials so wanted to try it out since it's close to home. The multigrain lunch sets are about $30 but it's a complete meal with entree, soup and the multigrain rice pot so it makes sense. I got the Spicy Pork with Soft Tofu. Spicy Pork and Multigrain rice was good! The spicy pork was cooked perfectly and surprisingly not as oily. Rice was good and was easy scape off with the tea afterwards. The soft tofu was good, but it was really spicy. Like I can handle the spice, but the spice was overpowering for me to actually enjoy it but if you're into that then this soup is for you. I was a little disappointed with the banchan options but I noticed form other photos that it varies on the day - I'd still eat it regardless though. Note on the top of the menu said limit set to one person, but I think if you're not heavy eaters, it would be enough to share plus an extra side. I was only able to eat half. But if you have a big appetite, I would get your own. Service was fast and nice - def recommend and would come back.

    Spicy pork, meatjun and BBQ kalbi

    My Fiance and I ate here the other day after always just getting take out and wanted to actually eat inside. The food was amazing, the restaurant was clean and the staff were great. Overall our experience was fantastic and we will definitely be going back! We ordered the spicy pork and the Meatjun and BBQ Kalbi plate , the spicy pork was sizzling hot when it came out and it was perfectly caramelized with the onions it was served with, the kalbi was nice and juicy and super flavorful which paired well with the MeatJun. Usually you can tell how great a Korean bbq place is by their banchan and Million did not disappoint, it was amazing and the server was always checking to make sure we had enough. The staff were great and attentive to everything we needed! They kept our waters filled and our banchan coming, and would always check on us to see if we needed anything else. From the few times we ordered take out from here the front worker was always very polite and nice too. You can tell they really take pride in the restaurant by how clean and presentable it is as well. We will definitely be coming back again, especially since we live so close. It's great having a KBBQ place so close to us, next time we are gonna have to try the actual grill. If i were to change anything I'd say maybe the pricing, we did get a lot of food but it was still a little expensive. But that won't keep us away! Thank you million!! (Also there is plenty parking so it's great if you need to drive!!!)

    Food and Service are great. Nice clean and comfortable environment. Reservations accepted. Parking on side of restaurant.

    FOOD/PRICE -- This place serves both Korean BBQ that you grill on your table and food that is cooked for you. KBBQ menu is pricier than other KBBQ spots in the area. You either order ala carte by the meats or order a set that is $74.99+. We ordered the Million Set S4 ($79.99), which includes non-marinated kalbi, outside skirt, wagyu brisket. The meats have superior quality, compared to other Korean BBQ spots, but they are EXPENSIVE and that the portions are small for a party of two. We were satisfied with the portions by the end of the meal, but we were not full. SERVICE -- Workers are friendly and efficient. Attended to our needs every time we search for them. AMBIANCE -- This place is SIGNIFICANTLY less smoky than other Korean BBQ places. It is also brightly lit inside. Decent place to have meals for special occasions. PARKING -- Many parking spots in the location.

But we were so disappointed with the quality of the food we couldn't even finish everything. So I got 2 lunch orders: rice with char siu and roast pork, and rice with roast duck and chicken. I also ordered half pound of beef trip to try. So this way we got to sample everything. At the end the only thing we enjoyed was the roast pork. The skin was crispy and meat had good flavor. The duck had too much fat. There was not much meat left after getting rid of the bones and the fat. The chicken was quite mushy. The texture just was not right probably because it wasn't too fresh? The char siu was probably one of the worst I have even had. It had so much tendon that there was not a single piece that we could even chew through it. And the beef tripe was soooooo salty. It was just very disappointing. It was relatively cheap though compared to other restaurants and they gave us a very big portion but I don't think I will go back given that there are places that sell better roast duck and char siu.

The brisket is so delicious, tender and juicy that you can cut it with a plastic fork. The pork ribs, pulled pork and sausage are equally as good. In addition, they have beef ribs on Fridays. The sides of baked beans, coleslaw and potato salad were also very, very tasty.

It falls apart as you're eating it in all the best ways. I regret not ordering it by the pound. The potato salad was a bit too mustardy for me but the cream corn was 10/10 I should've asked for it in a cup. My favorite part was the corn bread. I'm used to corn bread being dry and not my choice of a bbq side but I took a chance thanks to the employee hyping up all my food choices and tried it. The texture was more of a bread budding and was unbelievably delicious. I regret only getting one piece and not another one for the following day. I guess what I'm trying to say is, swing on by, order a little bit of everything and you'll leave a few pounds heavier and very happy.

My noodles came quickly and then the banchan. Unfortunately I finished my noodles before my husbands dish arrived. It finally did come out, sizzling and he started eating. Our server didn't check back on us once. She was eating her lunch and waiting on the tables with the BBQs. We had to wave at her a bunch of times to ask for a refill of 1 side dish and when she finally came over she said a bunch of not so friendly Korean things to me and then stormed off. A few minutes later she came back with the side dish and sort of flung it at us. We won't be back. The service was terrible and the food just okay. I really don't like the taste of their cold noodles but Choi's Garden closed down last month and Yu Chun has the same problem with surly servers who can ruin a meal. Come on. Korean restaurants can do better in Honolulu. We don't always feel like BBQ so treat those of us who don't order the meat spread with a little more respect. Plus, we are seniors who don't like food being flung at us and being yelled at in Korean. We still tip 22% for almost all dining out, but I think we will need to be more selective in the future. What has happened to dining out lately. It is a sad statement that one is treated like that when eating out is so expensive and becoming a luxury for a lot of us. I hope their management cares about their service ratings.
