The only other spot that I'm aware of the does wood charcoal Korean bbq is Kim's Restaurant( Kim's BBQ) in the Olney section of North Philly. The prices here at Nagwon Garden are way more affordable. Wood charcoal adds a nice flavor to the meat. Most other places use either electric or gas table grills. The other thing is, when you call them, the lady answers in Korean. They don't advertise that they use wood charcoal in English, only in Korean. So you know it's an authentic and legit experience! Take it from a Korean person.

Pretty good Korean food! Ordered 3 servings of pork belly and it was a bigger serving size than most Korean bbq places. Also gave us free watermelon at the end of our meal!

I have no idea why some people are raving about. As a Korean who had been to so many Korean restaurants this place is by far the worst place. We’ve ordered Pork belly and it was frozen and freeze dried for God sake. It had funny smell as well.
I would never come back to this pace nor would I recommend to anyone. It’s shame they don’t have 0 star.

First class tofu chige, generous and delicious seafood pancakes. However, the charcoal grilled short ribs and spicy pork were amazing. Not too sweet and the charcoal adds smoke with drying out the meat. Highly recommend

Solid bibimbap, and actually really good naengmyeon. They do a good selection of appetizer dishes and it's quiet on the weekends which is really great if you're entertaining your clients or just really craving Korean barbecue.

The closest I can get to Korea in Philly!!! After living in KR for a year, I am always on the hunt for real Korean food that hits like back home and this is it. We got the stir fried pork and kimchi (김치제육볶음) and the hot stone bibimbap (돌솥비빔밥) and they were incredible. The kimchi and pork were so tender and flavorful. The owner is so sweet, she served us, chatted with us in Korean, and gave us extra hot sauce for the bibimbap!! Of all the Korean places I’ve been to in the US, this may be my number one. Cannot wait to come back!

Ordered from grub hub. I can’t wait to eat in person. The Kimchi was so fresh. My noodles were exactly how I like them. The jiajangmyun sauce was deliciously thick and savory. Mandu ? carried well in the container.I would love to have some authentic tteokboki there. Gave the driver $20 holiday tip.

One of the workers an older lady literally ignored me when I walked inside. I grabbed a menu and and was not asked if I needed help. The customer service was so awful that I walked out. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

This was my first experience with authentic Korean food and I LOVED IT. I found the food to be a bit on the higher side but it was a mom and pop store and very authentic. After the meal, the give you a nice watermelon slice. I have tried the cold noodles and the black bean noodles. My only complaint is that there is not much meat in the meals.
Parking: Few parking spots designated for the shop.
