I had the spicy Gamjatang. It had a lot of meaty bones, but very few potatoes, and greens. Overall I really enjoyed it. Service was

I always get this soup here whenever i'm in the area and without fail it always hits. Esp with the colder weather it warms me to my bones! Its has the perfect level of spice. And so much food comes with it. This place really reminds me of home :..)

For a Korean person, I think that the seasoning might seem on the stronger side - but I think that it fits with what American people might be looking for. They have good service and a lot of different options. Great place for big groups as they have a lot of seating and you probably will not have a probably with parking here!

Black goat stew was the best! The lady who served our table was treating us like our mom all 5 stars deserved!
We’ve been coming here for years and consistently get great food. The barbecue dishes are great and cooked in the middle of your table, but lots more than BBQ! Most of the guests are Korean, but their English is good and the servers very helpful. There are so many dishes. I can’t begin to recommend, but I suggest you be experimental and try something new each time and share dishes, things are served family style. With BBQ you always get panchun, and assortment of side dishes that are really great and always different.Parking: There seems to be plenty of space, we’ve never had a problem getting a parking spot.

Amazing as usual. We had a party of 10, and the servers were svery attentive but not overly so. We had a wonderful time with my family, ate way too much, and it was completely delicious!

짜증나다. 낙담하다. Disappointed and Frustrated are two words used to describe my latest visit to Shin Myung Gwan BBQ Korean Restaurant on July 3rd, 2023. I’ve been here multiple times and introduced multiple new families to this restaurant. To be fair, my visits prior to July 3rd were pleasant and I found the food to be fantastic. However, on July 3rd I discovered a major flaw, and that was food consistency. The Pork bulgogi 돼지불고기 in the past was AMAZING; now it’s not. It used to be spicy, now it’s bland and flavorless. When I asked the server, who I suspect was the owner of the restaurant, why the bulgogi was different, she snapped at me (and I mean SNAPed) and proceeded to tell me it’s never changed and perhaps I’m thinking of a “Chinese” restaurant. She basically intimated that I couldn’t tell the difference in food or people from Asia. Before and after this interaction, the server was incredibly rude to our entire table; but especially to me. And if you ever got to know us, you’d realize we’d be the last family you’d ever want to be rude too; cause we’re nice. (I even debated about writing this review because it feels not nice to do it…)We went to Shin Myung Gwan for my son’s 14th birthday. Although I told the server what we were celebrating, she didn’t even acknowledge it was his birthday; ever once. I wasn’t expecting anything other than for her to say, “Oh, Happy Birthday…”We had a party of 6 and spent over $320 here. Spent $320 for sub-par food, rude service, racist undertones, and lasers blinding me the whole time. I found the whole situation extremely frustrating and will never spend another $ here; I’d encourage you to do the same. If you’re looking for Korean food in this area YOU HAVE SO MANY OTHER CHOICES. Don’t choose Shin Myung Gwan!!!
