Myung Dong Korean Restaurant

Father Son bonding walk at Takapuna Beach, and had late lunch at Myung Dong after just passing by during previous visits to Takapuna. Ordered beef and veggies, and spicy squid rings, both on hot plates, and pork and veggies steamed dumplings. Came with 4 sides. Nice experience. Good food.

I recommend the original kalguksu- it was classic with a nice seafood flavour! 5/5 The spicy kalguksu had a really strong chilli powder flavour which didn’t quite complement the broth and masked the flavour. Definitely stick to the original. Dumplings were all homemade and had a good amount of filling. Also, we saw the half and half chicken being served to a different table and it looked really good! Will be back to try the chicken.🍗

One of the best restaurants in Takapuna area. Main dish served with rice. Korean BBQ pork and beaf are worth trying. Weekends are usually crowded. Street parking can be found nearby. BBQ squid was not great. Fried dumplings are tasty. Lot of authentic Korean dishes available.

Value wise it’s good, u can find parking easy with 100meters of walking not too bad, chef and staff all working hard. Been here twice first time dine in didn’t provide side dishes, second time take away fried chicken was provided with radish, not as expected but I will come back not deal breaker as staff all very good

Saddest beef bibimbap.. with what seems like a teaspoon of ground beef for more than 20 dollars. Side dishes were skimpy for three people, and arrived after the mains. We had to ask the lady for water twice as well as scissors for the cold noodles. Cold noodles and stir fried squid tasted great, but it was not worth the price we paid for.

I have been here before at least 4 times . However I have always ordered bossam or cold noodles , spicy squid and was really happy about it . But today I m really surprised how it turned out . About fried chicken It’s really soggy ….. not crunchy at all Very different than other Korean fried chicken I have ever had . The quality of chicken thighs is pretty succulent, but the cook method is really disappointing! Very disappointing, please improve your formulation 😖 Bossam : today is pork is really dry and hard to chew … 2/5 Amazing spicy radish as always . The fish cake and the soup is really fishy in a very strong way ..::: I can’t have any ……. But the bean sprouts and Kimichi are always delish . Female FOH is really friendly .

Enjoyable Korean lunch box dishes lovely service, delicious Tteokbokki. A Great little Korean restaurant.

Beautiful food，tastes so good，马西塞呦. would be great if we can make the salmon more tender.
