Highly recommend this spot if you want a really high quality meal.

WARNING This is a…read moretotally different place for dinner and lunch. For lunch they have an insanely cut down and basic menu. None of the things that look good are on the menu. The food was mediocre at best, no elevation whatsoever. I'm not sure if this also reflects how their evening food is, but I'm not coming back to waste my time finding out. Shouldn't even be open frankly. Very disappointing. Also, it's all online order, like at a fast food joint. - so no real service. Food quality, also like fast food. Not a good look. What a waste of a decent ambiance.

"Park's Meaty Feast" is a Must!…read more We recently visited MEET Korean BBQ in Capitol Hill, and it was easily one of the best dining experiences we've had in the city. From the quality of the ingredients to the level of service, everything was top-tier. We opted for the Park's Meaty Feast ($199 for two), and it was worth every penny. The spread is incredibly comprehensive for meat lovers. The standout for us was the Niman Ranch 40+ days dry-aged bone-in Prime ribeye--the depth of flavor was incredible. The USDA Prime marinated bone-in short rib was equally impressive, perfectly tender and packed with that classic, savory-sweet flavor. The feast also included a beautiful variety of pork cuts, including the Kurobuta pork jowl and belly, along with the gochujang marinated pork shoulder. The American Wagyu steak tartare was a fantastic way to start the meal--fresh, high-quality, and expertly seasoned. Each table also comes with a fluffy, perfectly cooked egg soufflé and a rich, comforting Wagyu soybean stew that really rounds out the meal. To top it off, we enjoyed some Big Soju, which was the perfect pairing for the richness of the BBQ. Pro-tip: If you are an American Express Platinum cardholder, make sure to link your card with Resy. We were able to utilize the $100 credit, which made this premium experience even better. If you're looking for high-quality meat, a great atmosphere, and professional service where they take care of the grilling for you, this is the place to be. We'll definitely be back!

The crowds are less heavy now and yelp joining the waitlist is super convenient. Although today's waitlist join said it would take 16-33min to be seated, I got the text that table was ready within 3 minutes. We were still en route and made it within 15 minutes but were removed from the waitlist because we didn't answer the 3 minute call. Nonetheless, we only waited 10min for another table. The dining area that is nearest to reception can get "cold" particularly the corner, we sat there once and your elders will not like it. Today we got seated there again and decided to wait for the other side where the AC wasn't full blast. Its all chill. Friendly, accommodating staff. The food comes fast, like Din Tai Fung. The cost too, is like DTF. Overall, its good, but not worth the higher cost, but the service and cleanliness make it a combined 5 Star. The Kalbi Tang is the star, a must get every single visit.

It is set up like a cute korean style bar with small round tables which make sharing easier. They have a pretty good selection on their menu and we ordered a couple of items to share. The Rose Ttoekbokki with cheese was very yummy, but it kinda tasted like pasta with rice cakes instead of spaghetti. I think that is the point of this dish, so if you want a more traditional spicy flavor then get the other ttoekbokki option (spicy rice cakes). We still loved this one and the rice cakes were so chewy and delicious. The cheese corn was very yummy and exactly what you would expect. It pairs perfectly with the other dishes. My friends also shared the Seafood ramen and Beef bulgogi. They liked both dishes. One of our favorite things were the side dishes actually! The tofu was so yummy, and the bean sprouts were so crunchy and well seasoned. We even asked for extra! The only aspect that makes it difficult to come more often is the price point. Since the dishes are so big and shareable, it is easy to split amongst a group, but it is a little less affordable to come here for dinner and drinks.

Dinner in Seattle, Washington…read more.. Since we were in Chinatown and had free street parking on a Sunday, my niece and I looked around for our next meal. She said she saw a Korean restaurant next to where we parked our car. She was right! Gangnam Seattle was a cozy, calm shop. Service was efficient and polite! I got the Bulgogi and rice meal while my niece got the dumpling soup (with mochi). The portions were so generous that I took my leftovers to my niece's apartment. She had it for lunch the next day! Delicious! We were happy to not have to cook our own meal! LOL!

I'm a firm believer that the smaller the menu, the better the outcome. JangAn Sullangtang is a…read moreperfect case study here: hyper-focused on their namesake ox bone broth, with a few limited sides. I went with the brisket option. JangAn puts diners in the driver's seat, meaning that seasoning your soup is up to you and your own preferences. This might sound intimidating, but every table has a guide printed out, and the servers proactively offered to guide me as they brought out my roiling bowl. This method of seasoning complements the beauty of seolleongtang, which seems to deepen as you eat it. Warmth, seasoning, and time gradually coaxes more richness from the bowl, so take your time and enjoy the process. One special shout out for the banchan. You'll get both Kimchi and Kkakdugi (raddish) with your meal, and both can be refilled freely. I think you'll want to, because it was among the best I've ever had. They sell it to-go as well, and you can bet I took advantage. Overall 5/5

Have been in a few times and have had a solid experience each time. Fairly small place and not THAT many tables. You order at the counter and then sit down. It's self serve for water, silverware, and complimentary barley tea, which is nice. Both times the customer service when ordering was fine but not super friendly. I was the one saying "hello" first and saying "how are you?" before the cashier said anything. Kind of awkward/standoffish but not a dealbreaker when the food is good. Most recently I had the kimchi jigae, which was relatively spicy, even when I asked for less spicy (and they said they could accommodate). I'd say it was like 2-3 stars. Flavor was great though and it was a decent portion (for $17) and satisfying. Also, a pretty wide range of menu options, despite it being a small place. There were 4 complimentary banchan dishes (napa kimchi, cucumber kimchi, seasoned bean sprouts, and fish cakes). Note that I don't think there are free refills like other places... maybe you can ask but I didn't see anyone doing so. For 1-2 people, it's a relatively generous amount. Also, only certain dishes come with the banchan, so be sure to read the menu carefully if you are wanting the banchan.

The service was great and the waiter explained many of the new dishes to us herself. The food came out very fast after ordering and though there were several other tables full of groups, they also got their food out quick as well. The noise level is moderate, but the high walls on the booths and the partitions between the larger seating area and the table and booth section helps to buffer the noise pollution between the areas. The La kalbi was very flavorful and cooked to perfection. The dish came with a side bowl of rice and assorted bon chon. You could share this dish between a group of 2-3 or individually order it and be fulfilled.

I have dined here before so the interiors isn't too different just small changes. Let's jump to the food- I ordered the galbitang and it came with 10 different banchan. Which is a nice surprise since some restaurants aren't as generous in the banchan. The galbitang was so flavorful for a "clear" soup and the meat was tender. It also included a good portion of meat. I've tried galbitang at other places, but there was an umami that many didn't have. All the banchan were flavorful too, I thought the kimchi had a good balance as sometimes it can be a bit on the saltier side. Service was great too, the sever was friendly and checked often. When I went, it was just me then a couple arrived. There was a delay with their order so she provided some mandu on the house while their order was being prepared. Once they received their order, I heard the couple tell the sever that everything was very good multiple times- their food did look good! I recommend checking this place out especially with the new ownership. Menu looks similar from previous owners, but will for sure go back and try something else!
