Chungkiwa town (hongdae branch)

This place’s food is so good!!! We asked recommendations from the front desk of Ryse Hotel and the staff recommended us of this restaurant. We are so glad we came to try it out. My husband said it is the best meal so far in Korea. I think their cold noodles probably are the best Korean cold noodles I’ve ever had. I definitely a hundred percent recommend this restaurant.

Food wasn’t great, server also confused us into thinking we needed to order more than we needed. Pork shown in the picture is the minimum order, so we couldn’t try anything else to have a better meal. Crazy policy. Better kbbq in hongdae elsewhere. Also poor selection of sauces and banchan.

✔️ This is honestly the most foreigner friendly BBQ I’ve been to in Korea. Not only do they have full English menus, they also have a diagram of the table setting and label each of the side dishes and meat sauces. They even show you different ways to eat meat at BBQ (diff sauces, side dishes and with other meals) ✔️ The staff were also so nice and helpful! We tried: 💛 수원왕갈비 (Suwon King Ribs) (27,000) 💛 빗실로스 (27,000) 💛 냉면 (cold noodles) (6,000) ✔️We ordered the signature menu ribs, which you grill by yourself. This was genuinely one of the nicest BBQ’s I’ve been too. It was also my first time trying seasame leaf pesto, and eating BBQ with naengmyeon, both of which were AMAZING and I hiiiiiiighly recommend trying together! I already want to go back and eat it again 🙈🙈 ✔️The interior was also quite special, much nicer than your standard KBBQ restaurant, as it has a retro style with an LA Koreatown vibe ✔️ Free Service of Wine Corkage ✔️ Wide range of wine to buy there too

We have eaten at a few different locations. I find this location to be easier to book a table even last minute. LA Galibi was great as usual. Kimchi fried rice is a must get and the beef tartare is wonderful. We love taking overseas friends here because we can always depend on the quality and service.

Had a delightful dining experience for dinner during my recent holiday. Easy to locate as it's on the main street. Service was fast and efficient with the waiter/waitresses preparing the bbq set up and then proceeded to grill the meats for us to perfection. They serve some selection of wines too.

I really like this place! It has the kbbq vibes you'll see in k-dramas. The place is spacious and clean and the food is marinated and prepared so well. I got to try their raw marination beef tartare and crab. It's so fresh, even for first time raw meat eaters, it was delicious and easy to eat. Definitely would recommend people to try their beef tartare.

Not sure why this place isn’t getting 5 stars from everyone, as I loved this place. Been here 3 times now and it’s awesome. Great meat, but the kimchi fried rice really takes the show! Honestly we ordered just about everything on the menu and it was all yummy. Highly recommend!

Very very kind personal. And meet is amazing. We eat all so delicious. Wow it’s is best place. And I come to soon again. And We made some funny pictures. This place is good place I love.
