Great service and quality. A little bit pricey but I would definitely come here again if I was craving some specific Korean food. The BBQ is way overpriced so we avoided that. All of the staff members were super attentive and helpful.

Service was nice but the food is too salty. I admitted it tastes good but got thirsty easliy afterwards, apparently not good for health.

This location is pretty convenient. Parking was easy and we had no wait. Did yakiniku for dinner and ordered a set with beef tongue, pork belly, and other beef cut. The meat was a good amount for the two of us, though I wish we had a little more veggies. It came with like one slice of onion, about four pieces of mushrooms and zucchini's. I was very happy to have the assortment on bon chon, I enjoyed every single one of them, the Kim chee and daikon are my go tos.Service was quick and fine. And inside was pretty clean and the ventilation was good and kept the air from being full of the grill. The chairs were nice and large table for the two of us.

Came here for a dinner with family and was excited to have good Korean food! We went on a Wednesday at 6pm for dinner and it was quite crowded, especially for a Weekday. We got sat down at the table and there are many dividers around so you get a good amount of privacy from other parties that are there. I wasn't craving yakiniku, so I ordered the plate with the Meat Jun and Bulgogi as both are my favorites. It was pretty good. Food was hot and gave a good amount for the price. I just wish the bulgogi had a little more flavor as the flavor was really subtle. My parents had yakiniku and they gave some of their marinated grilled meat and it had sooooo much flavor and was so good. I will definitely do yakiniku the next time I come here. Servers were good and although they were super busy, they checked occasionally to refill banchans and water. Since it gets busy, I do recommend that you call to make a reservation. At about 7pm there was a line of people waiting. The people at the front did their best to get them seated quickly. Parking: The lot has a good amount of stalls. Entrance on Kapiolani Blvd is only accessible east bound. You have to go around the back on Waimanu st. If the lot right in front of the restaurant is full, there are more stalls available in the back near Waimanu St.

We wanted to have some authentic Korean Bulgogi and after looking at several restaurants we decided to try this one. There is ample parking at the restaurant and seating was fast. We were greeted by very friendly staff who were all smiling even though the restaurant was full.Once seated our waitress Mi So gave us a quick rundown of the menu and helped us pick out a set meal for various cuts of beef and several side dishes. She then lighted the hot plate where we would grill our meal.Soon a smorgasbord of food arrived at our table. It was all very fresh and very tasty! To top it off we were also treated to a Korean traditional dessert called Sikhye. It is a mildly sweet beverage like serving made of rice.In all it was a good meal with great food and service.

When I pay the bill they charge 20% already but that amount isn't the tip because later they want add the tip again. What is the 20% ? 계산전에 잘 확인 하세요

11/2023Haven't been to this location in a while, so I had an impromptu lunch with colleagues. Wwll priced lunch specials with normal selections like kalbi, barbecue chicken, bulgogi, etc. It seems to be the go-to for many regulars, young and old. I haven't had it in a while, so I thought I'd order the kalbi jim. While I do prefer the broth base more of a liquid like beef broth, theirs seemed to be thicker with a flour base and potatoes added. While it was different, it was still hearty and tasty. Service was humble, quick, and gracious, and they worked like a team. A nice place to have lunch with a friend or group with lots of parking. I'd go again. ?✌️

I am OBSESSED with this place. Ever since my friend recommended this place to me, I crave their soondubu (spell check) at least once a week. The place is always packed and their menu consists of an abundance of items. My favorite thing to get is the combo. The combo can definitely feed about 3-4 people. Anytime we go there, we get the combo, side of soondubu, another plate of brisket because yum. Definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a family dinner. It won't break your bank and the quality of their meat and food is authentic. GO GO GO!!!!! I implore you to check this place out. Trust me, you'll love it!

fun facts=Now Million Restaurant-Kapiolani, sister ship of Million on Sheridan StreetThen Budnamujip a restaurant chain from Seoul Korea meant to be korean "fine dining" or as others called it "upscale", "classy", "pricey" ....AND, Flamingo Restaurant and Bakery.... which was the iconic eatery AFTERthen Columbia Inn.... the iconic eatery also.... OK History buffs!!! Did I get it all and did I get it correct? Have I left anyone off this list?Now on to my eating experience. I went there for lunch with two buddies (one of whom was the former Flamingo's family member). Okay, truth is we went there so my buddy former Flamingo could visit his old home/restaurant and we could reminisce. Not to mention the fact, I was craving... craving for Korean food. 1 Star- food is tasty and with authentic Korean flavor 1 Star- Establishment is CLEAN, including the overhead fan for yakiniku1 Star- service is okay. Staff fully loaded for a medium capacity lunch crowd1 Star- Parking plentiful (see my footnotes later on the parking)I had to leave off 1 star for the tiny portion of Banchan. I'm sure if we wanted to, we could as for more but it was pretty puny for three diners. And the price for a regular lunch (not Yakiniku) but their lunch specials were pricey with nothing less than $17 per order, including the cold noodles which priced out at $16.95My order L14 was the Meat Jun and Kalbi combination. It came with 2 small pieces of meat jun, sliced like it normally gets served and 1 piece of 4 sliced pieces of Kalbi with a bed of thin sliced cabbage and the jun dipping sauce . It was accompanied with a bowl of rice and a small tea cup with their daily seaweed soup. $18.95. Well like I said, it tasted authentic Korean and I suppose that's the main point to consider when in a Korean eatery. I don't think I would go back for lunch, but I would go back and to try their Yakiniku dinner. Yup; I'd go for dinner and spend $17.95 on one of their appetizer dishes I think...Point to consider- you could go to one of the take out Korean Fast food places and pay the same amount for the same thing with a little more banchan I think.Last thing to keep in mind and if you didn't already know this is... Ready? well you can access the parking lot from Kapiolani Blvd, east side turn in only. You can't turn from a westward direction BUT you can access the parking lot from Waimanu Street.... Yup; you can get in there west or east direction from Waimanu and that is my tip of the day for this establishment.
It was my first time to this location with my sister. I treated her to Korean BBQ for her birthday. (Lucky her!)The parking lot is a decent size, but depending on what time you go, you might have a difficult time getting parking since the stalls can fill up quickly. It's nice and well-lit inside and was pretty spacious. I noticed there were lots of tables. You can tell that this location is the newer location compared to the Sheridan location.We came here for lunch, and they offer a lot of lunch plate specials (ex. meatjun, kalbi, bbq style meats, etc.) but sadly we were there for meat so there weren't any lunch specials for grilling your own meats.We ordered a bunch of food as usual since we always "eat with our eyes" LOL. We ordered the Million Set "S2," which includes Beef Outside Skirts, Wagyu Brisket, Beef Tongue, and Pork Belly. At first the menu is confusing as it is not clear since it seems like you need to do a minimum order of 2 for any of the sets, but what that actually means is that you need to order a minimum of 2 for the "ala carte" meats. Our server was able to clarify that for us. Also, one order of a "set" is a perfect serving size for 2 people.We also ordered the Tteok-bokki, lunch special Bibimbap, and lunch special Soondubu (Soft Tofu Soup). Unfortunately, I did not take any updated menu photos, but for everything (not including tip), it was $134.The meats are high quality and were delicious! The soondubu was tasty and comforting. I think we could've done without the tteok-bokki (no taste) and the bibimbap (felt like there wasn't any sauce, seemed plain). I wouldn't order those 2 dishes again. The banchan was my favorite and the salad too! I couldn't get enough of the salad.The employees were friendly and sorta left us alone, which I didn't mind. They did refill our waters, though! It is expensive here, but you pay for the quality of meats and you can tell the difference.

We decided to celebrate a friends going-away dinner here. It was all of our first time at Million. This place is not AYCE but they do have sets and many options on the menu. The service was very good. The servers were quick to take our order and the food came out fairly quickly. We ordered 2 million set #2 as a group of 8, kimchee pancake, and the tofu kimchee soup. I fell in love with the tofu kimchee soup! It was perfectly spicy, the tofu was soft and soaked up the flavor of the soup so well. The kimchee pancake was crispy and delicious. I loved all the sides that were provided with the set. The kimchi had great flavor and crunch. The dipping sauces paired perfectly with the meats. My only complaint would be that for the price of 74.99, you would think that there would be more meat.Flavor is definitely great at this place but it is a little too pricey.

They have the usual korean BBQ, but also some dishes you don't usually see here, like gamja-tang (literally "potato soup," but there's big chunks of pork neck in there too). That's what I got, others in our party got rice cake soup and beef tendon soup. It was a soupy kind of meal, and good, particularly if you want something different.
Great service and quality. A little bit pricey but I would definitely come here again if I was craving some specific Korean food. The BBQ is way overpriced so we avoided that. All of the staff members were super attentive and helpful.
