The menu features a variety of dishes, including galbi, beef tartare, and radish kimchi fried rice.
The chef at Bansang is skilled at preserving the classic flavors of each dish, while also incorporating new and unusual ingredients.

The portion sizes at Bansang are small, but this allows diners to try a variety of dishes. The service is friendly and attentive, and the restaurant has a modern and classy atmosphere. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and there is ample parking nearby.
The tomato salad was described as bitter and tart, and the pear had no taste. However, other reviewers found the kimchi fried rice to have an amazing texture. The other dishes were described as good, but not outstanding. Some components were great, but overall they were just "good".
The restaurant is a bit pricey, but most reviewers felt that it was worth it. Some recommended making a reservation for large groups and splitting the table among parties of 3-4, as the plates are small and not suitable for larger groups.
In summary, Bansang is a unique Korean fusion restaurant that offers a variety of dishes with a modern twist. The portions are small, but this allows diners to try a variety of dishes. The service and atmosphere are both excellent. While some dishes were not well-received, others were highly praised. Overall, Bansang is a worthwhile dining experience.
