I really liked my experience overall. I did need to wait a bit for my food to come and water was a bit slow but nonetheless the staff was really sweet and good and the food was, as expected, delicious and the meals more spicy did exactly the job it was spicy just as I like it and the ambience was more on the bar side but nothing bad just different then most restaurant but I definitely recommend going as group to have a more full experience of it all.

Worst service EVER!!! Forgot us, made us wait for an hour. Forgot our order and wasted more time by forgetting one of our orders. Also while we were eating, they came and told us to leave bcuz they had another reservation. Also when we spoke to the MANAGER, they said not really our problem! Wanted to blame us for their mistake. Managers should reconsider their weekend busy teams who are more capable to work!!!!
Worst experience, no service and they kicked us out even though they weren't coming to see us

The quality of certain dishes has diminished,like the pork belly and lamb skewers were dry unfortunately,the butter chicken udon was delicious ? Hope they can improve their quality like in the past.

I came to eat in this restaurant and got locked inside before closing hours because they closed earlier without making sure no clients were still inside.Police had to be called.A staff member came after being called by the police. He never presented himself,and no excuses were ever presented.He didn’t even take my name or phone number for a follow up.After the incident, I called the restaurant multiples times to tell them about the situation and discuss with them but there is no answer. I presented myself to the restaurant and explained the situation to a supervisor present .They asked for my phone number so the manager could present their excuses, so they say…It’s been at least a month and no one has contacted me.This was so poorly handled from this restaurant and it was negligent from the restaurant. It ruined my experience and it was stressful.

Beef ramen is amazing. Highly recommend.
But lamb skewers is NOT flavorful at all ?

Ganadara is no longer what it used to be. The music is bad and I do not understand how a place can hire people who either look like they are on drugs, or look like they'd rather be doing anything else . The hostess with tattoos is rude and unwelcoming, and to have her as the first point of contact makes you want to not eat there ... It Feels like the people who work there only care about returning customers and their own friends.
Would not recommend this place anymore. I Don't know if the owners have changed but it used to be a lot better a couple of years back. What a shame .

Issue 1 - if you are trying to make a reservation over the phone, forget about it! They do not answer the phone at all. We were a group of 10-12 so we couldn’t book online and had to submit a reservation request on their website. We never got a reply back so we tried to call for 4 days with no answer! Voicemail box full..
I literally went to the restaurant in person to make a reservation and that was no issue. I have truly never experience such trouble getting a hold of a restaurant (still was never able to over the phone).
Issue 2 - We were excited to drink lots of soju but when we started ordering the waitress informed us that they had no soju! There was a whole section on the menu for soju and sake and no one told us that they didn’t have either of those until we started ordering. We ordered some cocktail pitchers instead, which were just fine (not very strong).
Issue 3 - There was some water from the ceiling leaking on half of the people of our group so we asked the waitress if she could switch to a different table. She was only able to offer us a separate additional smaller table behind us. This was frustrating as it split our group and we were planning on sharing all of the food we had already ordered as they told us we could only do 1 bill for the group. Each time we got a plate we had to decide which table would get it and we had to pass down some plates back and forth to both table. It was a mess and super inconvenient. About halfway into our meal we were moved once again to a larger table that could fit our whole group. Nothing was offered to us to accommodate for all the inconvenience. I had to ask the waitress if she could possibly offer a discount or free items as we were disappointed with our experience. I even asked her to have the manager come and talk to me if necessary. After some back and forth they offered a pitcher of beer and cocktail.
Issue 4 - Finally, we had ordered 2 calamari which literally took over an hour. I also found that there was limited vegetarian options.
Overall I was mainly very disappointed by the customer service and that there was no soju. This really affected the whole dinner and they could have made it up to us by being proactive and offer us a discount or some free items to apologize for the situation. Instead we had to ask and « fight » for it. They definitely do not know how to give good customer experience. Only redeeming quality is that the food was good.

Good food and good ambiance. Service is pretty quick and it’s a great place for bigger groups. Favorite was the rose tteokbokki. Portions are good and prices are reasonable.

I tried giving this place multiple chances. Never really understood what the buzz was about, but yesterday was really my final straw. I ordered pork tantan udons and was extremely disappointed with my food. I expected something much better for the price. It was beyond bland. Safe to say I will not be coming back here.
Teobokki rosé sauce are 10/10
