So so beer, not enough food, high prices. Meh. Don't get kalbi, it's 36$ for 8 small pieces. Pork lechon was over fried. Katsu was salty. 200$ later walked out still hungry...

The humble cheeseburger and fries were delicious. Fun and friendly atmosphere in this restaurant in the Pearl Ridge Mall.

It's named Beer Lab/Hall but children can go, obviously can't have alcoholic drinks. Great place for family dining, lots of choices for different tastes. Adults find the drinks interesting and delicious!

Very attentive and friendly service. Christmas Eve early dinner with senior citizens. lol. “We plates” were perfect to share. We had the kalbi, cheese pork Katsu, mandoo, lechon, Korean fried chicken and fried saimin. All freshly prepared and well seasoned. Beer selections were interesting!

This place is absolutely terrible. Not only do they charge you 18$ for a sub par burger, but the fries that come with the meal are something you can get out of the frozen section at your local grocery store. Not to mention they give you a total of 13 french fries with your order. You have to ask for silverware, you have to ask for salt and pepper, basic amenities that should already be on the table. Only go here if there’s no other place on island to eat.

Yikes I might be the only who thinks this place is average at best. I don't know if I ordered the wrong things or maybe came on a bad night. We had a bunch of stuff, nothing I would return for including 1. Tater tot nachos - dry, really hard bacon bits 2. Korean fried chicken - ok 3. Garlic fries - standard 4. Butter rice ?? - mushy but sounds like that's what it's supposed to be 5. Lilikoi soda - no lilikoi flavor So I wanted to try the fried rice but the server informed us everything is pre mixed, so without shrimp was not an option. That's ok got the garlic butter rice BUT everything comes out when it's ready regardless of when the other dishes are ready. Which means starches came out 10 to 15 min before meat, so was cold already when the chicken arrived. Since the homemade sodas come with no refills i was expecting something very flavorful ... my kid couldn't even remember what flavor he ordered, he thought he had sprite. The best thing was the garlic fries. So what we had was average food at above average prices and uncomfortable seating. The table is in the shape of a barrel and it felt squished but the girl said we had to sit there. Wouldn't recommend and wouldn't return unless I desperately needed a drink in the middle of shopping. Final observation, they clear the table very quickly as in you are putting the last bite of food to your mouth and someone is trying to grab your dish. I don't know if they have a dish shortage or the dishwasher gets off early but I found it to be off putting.
Amazing customer service! We were greeted right as we walked in, and was immediately seated and given water. The waitress asked if we had been here before (we said no), and proceeded to go through the menu with us and point out local favorites; she also took the time to go over the beer menu. We weren't really hungry so we opted to split a wagyu cheeseburger, garlic fries, and Korean fried chicken (pupu style). The Wagyu cheeseburger was delicious and had melted cheese, mushrooms and onion oozing out of it. The garlic fries was crispy, garlicky and paired perfectly with the burger. The Korean fried chicken was just sweet enough and was perfectly balanced with the furikake topping... absolutely delicious!

Wow! From the service at the bar, the food and the vibe! Loved it! First time here and I was surprised. Drinks were unique, well prepared and delicious! Beer lovers would be happy. Bartender was on point and so attentive. We ordered food and it came out quickly, fresh and so tasty. We ordered Banana Lumpia, Sodduck Sodduck, furikake fries and the Korean chicken. That Sodduck was awesome. Fried rice cake? Yes! Served with sausages and topped with Gochujang. Yummy! All other items were very good as well. Go try! You'll leave happy!

Great place to hang out and just grab a beer. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very attentive. Pricing is decent and food was fresh. Surprisingly it was very busy (as a hang out spot) for a mall location.

This was back on October 12th, 2023. What can I say, but WOW!When eating out, my daughter and I tend to go for ramen, but we wanted to eat something different. Since we were at Uptown Pearlridge, we were trying to think of where to go.We hit on The Hall because I asked about Gomatei . We went in and was seated right away. This is a Tuesday around 1pm. Venue: Spacious is the first word that comes to mind. The space is very open, very conducive to the "getting to know your neighbors" type of concept. Wish I had gotten the name of the waiter & waitress as they were very friendly and very helpful. There were the high tables and lower tables. It's a personal preference, I guess, although the high tables were not as conducive to meeting your neighbors as much as the low tables were.The Food: Since it was just the 2 of us, we ordered: 1. the Cheese Pork Cutlet, which came with a dark Tonkatsu type sauce - this dish was amazing. A molten filling of thin (not too thin) cut of pork with a generous dose of cheese all wrapped up in a crispy coating. My daughter ate 1/3 before I could catch a good picture We started to put the gravy from the fries, and OMG, it kicked things up big time! Must eat while hot for ultimate enjoyment. 2. the Sodduck Sodduck in a light but different tteokbokki sauce (possibly due to the Portuguese Sausage) - We had high expectations for this dish being avid lovers of Korean cuisine. Was not disappointed, but personally, I would have preferred smaller pieces. Maybe half the size so I could put 1 and 1 of each in my mouth at the same time. To get the full effect of what the dish intended. But that's me personally. 3. the French Fries and Gravy - The fries were crispy and flavorful on their own, but the star was the amazing gravy that came with it. I asked about it, and it came about due to a collab they had with some Korean Aunties, and they just kept using the same gravy. I was told they also put it on the Loco Moco (to be tried another time!)I noticed they had several flavors of cream soda and wanted to try one. I got the Lilikoi, and it was amazing. I told them that if it came with a little alcohol it would be deadly. I might do a takeout drink the next time we go and make my own when I get home with some soju. Overall: Great place to hang out with friends and have some craft drinks. It's also a great place for dinner with the family. Lots of shareable dishes, kid-friendly dishes, and craft beers and cocktails. I left satisfied and with a smile on my face.

Beer Lab seriously never misses. I’ve been to their University location but it was my first time to The Hall. Very modern and cool on the inside. I tried the Unseelie Court, Ise Ebi, and Dat Bitter. They were all fantastic. Only got beer this time but the food menu looks great too. Service was good too.
