November 11,2025: I decided to go for lunch at this restaurant and to my surprise the service and food was one of the worse Korean bbq restaurants I been too. I had order pork soup and seafood pancakes . The soup was watery and the seafood pancakes was the worse. Very thin and no seafood if any and tasted like it came out from the microwave. When we arrived we sat down and order the dishes and in less then 5 minutes it was served. The waitress was one of the worst we ever had. She never came over to the table if we needed anything or if everything was ok with the food and to top it off had only 2 napkins for a party of two. When we had finished we paid and left $15 tip which she did not deserve from a bill of about $66. I decided after we paid to order an extra bottle of sake cost about $16. Gave her a $20 bill and to asked her twice for my change. She said thought I said to keep the change. In total as a business owner myself this type of behavior is unacceptable and unprofessional. I will never be back to this place. I travel all over the city and other parts of the states and countries and consider myself a critic and a foodie.

This was one of my favorite Korean restaurants 10 years ago when I lived in the area. My grandfather used to always say that this restaurant reminded him of his hometown. Came back yesterday and it did not disappoint. Extremely friendly staff and the flavors are so authentic. My wife was so impressed and we had such a great experience. I highly recommend this place 🙂
For the folks complaining that you need to order at least two meats - it's because it takes extra effort for a waiter to serve, clean the grill, and bring out the banchans. Absolutely worth it though.

I tried the Yangnyeom Galbi today, and it was absolutely amazing! 😋 The meat was thick, tender, and perfectly marinated — every bite was full of rich, savory-sweet flavor. The balance between sweetness and saltiness was spot-on, and the smoky charcoal aroma made it even better. There was no gamey smell at all, and it paired perfectly with a bowl of rice 🍚🔥
The portion size was generous, and the staff even helped grill the meat, so it was super easy to enjoy. Overall, a 10/10 experience — I’d definitely come back again with friends!

We ordered the beef BBQ and added a side of pork belly. The side dishes were delicious and delivered by a robot.
Sooooo good! Steak and Shrimp with seafood pancake 💚 the Banchan are excellent (love the peanuts especially) and the attention of service is Michelin worthy.
There’s a reason Hahm Ji Bach is open 24 hours a day and always packed - it is soooo good!

This place has some of the best Korean food in NYC! All the dishes I have tried and really tasty. They offer a wide selection of banchan as well. I've never been disappointed each time I have come here!

Stumbled upon a real gem. High-quality meat is definitely a major win in my book, it can make or break a dish. Also, a LOAD of side dish is nice, it means the meal is complete.

I took my mom here and she absolutely loved it! The food was fresh, came out quickly, and they offer so many delicious side dishes. A big plus is that some of the staff speak Chinese, which made ordering really easy for my mom. My personal favorite was the potato jjeong. The restaurant can get a little loud, but it adds to the warm and lively vibe. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving Korean food(or want a lot of side dishes).
