Galbi Ma Eul Restaurant

Bang for buck, fantastic. In just side dish alone you could get full (but obviously order per-person). But the seafood stew is amazing, and the BBQ is done with Charcoal, getting a nice smokey flavor. The quality of the meat is amazing, and I usually don't like marinaded kbbq bc the flavors can be over-powering, but no it was perfectly marinated and not too sweet. Service was amazing and okay at the same time, if you don't speak Korean might be a little difficult communicating, but the owner came around and greeted everyone and brought more side dish for us. But super authentic and I wouldn't say hole in the wall bc it's pretty well known in the Korean Community, but is somewhere you should go if you want great Korean food that Koreans like. But warning it will def be PACKED, and you will leave 10lbs heavier...

Food here was on the money. Quality cuts of kalbi, banchan made with fresh ingredients imported from Korea (eggplant and marinaded raw crab were my favs), and service is fast and efficient. For the BBQ, seems they got all the details right, from the lettuce leaves, garlic and marinaded onions, to the 'service' dwenjjang jjegae. Meal for a family of 4 wasn't cheap, but totally worth it since we left with full satisfied bellies.

We love coming here for the sliced duck barbecue that’s around $30 a serving. The banchan are fresh and there’s always a great variety. My daughter loves the fluffy steamed egg. Street parking only, and there’s a back entrance if you’re parked on the side street. You won’t have trouble finding a table for lunch on Sunday.
