"Samwon Garden is also pretty close to MSG, and it’s a huge place where you can fit your immediate family as well as any family members you really weren’t expecting to see. This sleek three-story restaurant does Korean barbecue, and it’s a great spot for either lunch or dinner. Be sure to order the assorted beef platter, and get some kimchi fried rice with brisket." - bryan kim, katherine lewin, matt tervooren
"Sometimes, you don’t realize how much you love something until it’s gone. Other times, you’re fully aware of how much you love something, because it’s amazing, and you aren’t a fool. Korean barbecue falls into that camp. And so does your significant other. (In that order.) Bring the two together by ordering some marinated galbi from Samwon Garden. Or get their care package with short rib, pork belly, several stews, and a bunch of sides. It allegedly feeds up to six people, but you and your date don’t play games like that." - bryan kim
"Samwon Garden in Koreatown is offering something called a “Care Package” for delivery. It consists of prime short rib, pork belly, several stews, and a bunch of sides, it costs $179, and it will most likely make your week. But if you don’t want to spend that much, this Korean barbecue spot also has a huge a la carte menu (and plenty of soju). Find all the details and place your order here." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, matt tervooren
"Samga Chicken had been a popular Koreatown restaurant known for its dakdoritang for more than 30 years before it closed earlier this year; its longstanding focus on dakdoritang links it to the new Jun Won Dak, and the space was briefly used by the owner of Yuk Dae Jang as a central kitchen before passing the torch to the Jun family." - Jean Trinh
