Gangnam Korean BBQ Halifax in Halifax

One of the best.

Quality food!

My go-to restaurant to order take-out. I have always had such a pleasant experience with the staff and 10/10 food. My favourite dish is the ja-jang myeon and the kimchi fried rice.

Food was good and good service.

The staff are friendly, Store comfort I don t think alcohol is expensive ^^ I enjoyed it~

My favorite place for Korean BBQ in Halifax. Highly recommend!

My favorite place to go whenever i am craving for Kimchi Soup. Great taste, fast service and reasonable price

Our go-to Korean restaurant. Dine in or delivery, either way, food quality is amazing. Highly recommend pork bone soup and they are pretty generous with side dishes, you can always ask for more when dining in. :) Gangnam is the best in town!

Dinner here did not disappoint. Great food with great service. I would recommend. Food

Very good food, also grill at the table. Fast and very friendly.

One of our favorite places. Flavourful and diverse Korean fare.

My favourite Korean spot in Halifax! The bibimbap and bulgogi are soooo good, and the quality of meat and portion sizes for the kbbq are amazing. Really reasonably priced !

Highly recommend if you are looking for delicious Korean BBQ and high-quality service

Best korean food specialy kimchi and very nice staff

Amazing restaurant, great experience there. Good service, great food, amazing space.

Took time out of my evening to join them for dinner. Left my hotel in an Uber $10. Dollars later arrived at 9:01 PM. Time provided on webpage, closing at 10 walked in and they said, sorry, were closed. They sis not even offer to pay for my taxi there.

Ill start off by saying my wife is Korean and no not from the North. The Korean BBQ was great 4 of us and still had leftovers. We normally went to Busan now this is our new spot just great all around

Everything was delicious, staff are very friendly. Kimchi fried rice was excellent and the beef soup was very tasty.

I ate ribs and jjambbong. I wish I had known sooner, but its a shame. The hospitality is good and the food is really delicious.

Tteokpokki mastaaa -- The tteokpokki was really good XD

Don t expect what you get from NY or LA. However, the wait staff was good.

The food was delicious and great value! We felt very welcome, on arrival and after.

My son and I really enjoyed the food and service. Great price. Everything was perfect for us. Thank you!

We quite enjoyed our first Korean BBQ experience including our two somewhat fussy kids. We went with the everything BBQ experience and asked if it could be done gluten free (more on that in the dietary section). We ate too much and very much enjoyed it. The salad was a little over dressed but tasty. None of us are Miso soup fans so unfortunately that went to waste as it was included in the BBQ. I would have loved a little more vegetable matter, but after the first round of meat there wasnt any brought out. Favourite meats were a fight between the LA galbi and the marinated beef. It would have also been nice to have a little more instruction for the floundering white people trying to figure out the right approach, but they were very attentive and answered any questions we had. Overall a very enjoyable experience. Dietary restrictions: The server assured us that they could accommodate our celiac and provide everything gluten free. We were nervous seeing the marinated meats come out and asked again. They confirmed gluten free. No adverse reaction was experienced and contamination will set our celiac off. We took a bit of a risk here, but came out okay. They do have marked gluten free items on the menu but they are limited which is why we asked about the BBQ and are glad we did.

My favorite Korean BBQ place in North America!!! The food, service and location are amazing!!!

I occasionally eat out here, and this is my go-to restaurant. The food is always great, and the service is overall good as well. I always recommend this restaurant to anyone interested in Korean food because it is very authentic compared to other restaurants in HRM. However, I wanted to leave a comment as I was very upset during my visit last night. I was there with my boyfriend, and we each ordered a main dish, but he did not receive his meal! He had to leave the restaurant without eating his own meal. My boyfriend ordered first; he ordered Coke and Tonkasu, and I ordered Pork Bone Soup. The server said something else that was way off for my order, so I had to make sure she got my order correct. About 10 minutes later, I got my food. Even after a while, my boyfriend still didnt get his food. We thought maybe Donkasu was freshly made, so we waited. After about half an hour, he still didnt get his food, and I was almost done eating. I asked the server when he would get his food, and we were told that he didnt order his food?! We were quite surprised, and I told her he did order his food. She apologized and asked if we wanted anything. But by then, it was 8:30 PM, and the restaurant was about to close, so of course we didnt want to order at that point( If i were the server, I wouldve given something quick and little like fried Dumplings to make it up, to be honest lol). My boyfriend said he was okay but was still hungry even after eating a bit of my meal. I was very upset that this happened, as it could have been prevented if the server had double-checked our order. Also, in my opinion, Its quite common sense that two adults dont often share one little meal. The server was nice (kept checking on us and gave us refils), so I hope she doesnt face any disadvantages from my review, but this should never happen in the future. We love the food there and will definitely go back. However, last nights experience was very disappointing as it ruined our night.

I have been going there for many years now, it is a wonderful place of great comfort for me. I love the bibimbap, the barbecued meat, the spicy chicken dish and many others.

Tasty food. Had korran bbq combo for 2. Fair price for lots of food.

The friendliest staff and the best Korean bbq me and my family have ever had! Special mention to my favourite, the kimchi fried rice!!!

Great food and service!

Excellent food and friendly, consistent service. Portions are also very large; we got a Hot Pot for 2 and there was easily enough food for 3-4 people

Very good service to the table, and food was tasty.

I tend to travel abroad often, and I love Jjamppong. The ribs can be said to be number one. A restaurant where friendliness is also the best! Real Jjambbong is considered to be middle to upper level even in Korea!

We had the dinner for 4 and it was amazing. We really enjoyed . Lots of food. Highly recommend

Had the combo 4. AMAZING!!! Our cook/chef was very nice. Food : 5/5

Really enjoyed this place. Food and service all fantastic. I commented on how much I enjoyed the Kimchi and with out asking he brought me some more. Nice touch.

Food is a pretty good and servers also good

Im a regular diner at this restaurant, and it never disappoints. Nestled in the former Thalay Thai location, a longstanding gem of Asian cuisine in HRM, the restaurants grand entrance may initially give off department store vibes rather than traditional Korean BBQ joint feels. However, that notion swiftly dissipates as you step through the inner doors, enveloped by the enticing aroma of gochujang. Seating is usually flexible, except for Korean BBQ reservations. Upon being seated, indulge in the banchan provided, as they generously replenish it at no extra cost, a cherished tradition in Korea. Dont hesitate to ask for more; youll be treated to a delightful array of kimchi, pickled daikon, and carrot. While enjoying the Korean stews, be mindful they come out piping hot and might pose a wardrobe hazard. Its always reassuring to find oneself surrounded by fellow diners of the same cultural background, affirming the authenticity of the establishment. The only downside? The restroom situation leaves something to be desired. Although cleanliness isnt an issue, navigating the path to the basement-level facilities in a century-old building (or possibly former department store) can be a bit of a trek. Never had a bad meal here; neither will you. Parking: usually a spot out front.

Recently had lunch at Gangnam, and it was fantastic! The food was delicious, especially for someone like me who isn t very familiar with Korean cuisine. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, guiding me through the menu and suggesting great options. I ll definitely be returning for more!

My first night in Halifax on a 3 day educational, I wandered looking for a place to buy a toothbrush as I had forgotten my own. I walked past this restaurant and saw a picture of one of my favourite dishes Bibimbap! On my way back I decided to go in and try. It was busy but I was immediately seated, I knew exactly what I wanted and did not wait long to order! I ordered the Beef Bibimbap and Pork dumplings. However it came with Miso soup, a side of sprouts kimchi and another cold veggie in a mandarin sauce. I couldn t get over how quickly everything was made! I was in and out in 35-40 min and had so much food I had to take the rest with me. Everything was so tasty and the staff was delightful and so kind! Not to mention I was shocked how inexpensive everything was! A place worth trying!

Great food and friendly staff. Serve authentic Korean food. Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair not accessible due to few steep steps into the main entrance. Food : 4/5 |

When around closing, staff was still friendly and didn t rush us. We had the beef bbq and it was definitely worth the wait to watch it cook and eat, came with salad and rice and lettuc

It was an interesting experience but the BBQ was delicious

As always, everything was so good . Although there were almost 18 of us together, the service was fast and reliable. Thanks again for your delicious food and great hospitality.

Excellent food! Great atmosphere! Awesome service!

I love this place! Service is always fast , staff are always friendly, and I always enjoy the dishes I order!

It s delicious, but I don t see raw beef in the recipe! Sorry I didn t order cold noodles Kid-friendliness: Has child seat

Asian meal and consistent authentic flavor. Nice ambience and good service.

Ive been here a few times for lunch, and its been exceptional every time. Their lunch specials are a really well priced too.

The absolute best place in HRM for Korean cuisine wish we could come more often, but when we do- it is such a treat!

First time having Korean BBQ and it was delicious! There was 4 of us and we had the BBQ for 4 with pork belly. Short ribs, beef and chicken. The marinade was amazing! Very tast! The service was amazing too, very polite and friendly. Highly recommend.

Chip and delicious!

Good food, great service

The bbq on the table is a great experience. The food was amazing and the service was amazing. Highly recommend. Would absolutely go again

Best Korean food in town! Every time we ve visited the staff have always been very friendly and welcoming and the food was always spectacular

Good food, good staff, good atmosphere! Cant recommend enough.

I had my friends together, eating Jjambong and jajang. Those were disgusting. Noodles were horrible. I wont go anymore.

Great spot. The food was better than a lot of the food I had in Korea. Friendly staff. Fast service. Nice atmosphere. And excellent air quality.

As a connoisseur of Korean cuisine, I must say that the Korean BBQ restaurant located in the center of downtown Halifax is a standout establishment that truly excels in every aspect. First and foremost, the service was impeccable. The staff were not only attentive and efficient, but also welcoming and hospitable, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for diners. In terms of atmosphere, the restaurant is tastefully decorated with traditional Korean elements, giving it a sense of authenticity and cultural immersion. The energy of the restaurant was lively and dynamic, making for a truly enjoyable dining experience. Now, onto the food. The selection of meats offered at the BBQ was diverse and of the highest quality, expertly prepared and cooked to perfection. The accompanying banchan, or side dishes, were also a delight, offering a plethora of flavors and textures that enhanced the overall meal. In conclusion, it is with the utmost conviction that I highly recommend this Korean BBQ restaurant to anyone seeking a truly exceptional dining experience. The combination of excellent service, authentic atmosphere, and delicious food make it a must-try for anyone in the Halifax area.

Wonderful experience. We were there yesterday (first time) for lunch. What a great surprise. Service was friendly and helpful with choosing the right dishes for us. Amazing flavour, generous portions and good price. We will be back for sure. Vegetarian options: Many dishes available without meat.

Food are too salty I ordered the bulgogi and royal rice cake

Wonderful service, excellent food.

I was always curious because there were so many people, but the portions were really generous for the price and the food was all great. The staff were all friendly too~~

The food was great! Glad to see a Korean BBQ where the server is cooking the food for you. Some other places Ive tried, have the set up is awkwardly placed and have burned my legs on the heating elements. This location is very clean and it shows they thought out how the heating elements should be placed on a table. Servers were kind and welcoming

Was delicious. We ordered more food than we could eat. Was very filling. Wish we got more instruction for cooking as we accidentally overcooked some meat.

Not a fan, meat was salty, toppings for the meal for 4 was minimal at best. Tables are very small and makes it hard to comfortably enjoy a meal. Uncooked meat placed up against cooked meat. Would not try again.

The food is amazing and the service is top notch!

Amazing food and service! The atmosphere is very welcoming and warm.

I like this place because of the location, atmosphere, and friendly staff. It is my favourite Korean food place in Halifax . Their food is always fresh and amazing.

We just had our experience in this restaurant like an hour ago.The service is so kind, and so polite. The food here is so good I recommend the Pork Belly is good but the beef is better since it was well marinated, the kimchi and the radish is also so good. I really liked the atmosphere and service especially the food and the songs playing in their speakers it so good! Overall this restaurant is a must try! Kid-friendliness: This restaurant is also kid-friendly because the food are not all spicy and the old lady was also kind to my sister, she even gave a cat sticker to my sister!

Amazing restaurant, incredible food, and excellent service ! I always order Sundubu with seafood, piping hot and spicy Service is very friendly and prompt. The owner is a very sweet woman who cares so much about her guests. Highly recommend this place to anyone, large or small parties are accommodated well. I go there with my partner or with groups of 6-8 and it s always great! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and vegan options Dietary restrictions: Gluten free menu

Love the food and amazing staff

Awesome Korean food,

An absolutely incredible experience We ordered the Everything Combo for 3 people, Pork Bone Hot Pot for 2 people and Eel rice bowl. We love everything so much!! The portions were enormous with very reasonable price, even though its located conveniently right in downtown Halifax. It could be a bit tricky finding parking spots, so you may expect some walking uphill to get there.

The best Korean BBQ I ve been too and honestly one of my favourite restaurants in Halifax. The service is amazing, prices are great and their food is even better. The kimchi fried rice is one of my go to dishes to go along with the BBQ and I also really enjoy the Korean soft drinks they have. Overall a fantastic experience If I could eat here everyday I would. Highly recommend trying it out!!

My favourite restaurant in Halifax

Friendly staff, great food which leaves you wanting more, If you re in the area it s a must try!

Good price and quality

There is not a doubt in my mind that Gangnam Korean BBQ (barrington street) possesses the most extraordinary Korean BBQ on the peninsula. Apart from the delectable selection of meat included in the BBQ, Gangnam also provides brilliant collection of tradition native cuisine including my favourite: chashu ramen!

I visited Gangnam Korean BBQ on Barrington st and was blown away by the incredible food and service. I got the chashu ramen and enjoyed it thoroughly. I can t wait to go back and try their Korean BBQ. 10/10 recommend

I went in for lunch on a weekend and ordered kbbq. Ive had kbbq in the past at other restaurants and felt confident in cooking for myself so I asked if I was able to handle my own food so the waiters could tend to other customers. I was told yes, so away I started grilling. I was interrupted numerous times throughout my meal by 3 different staff members; they were concerned I wasnt grilling fast enough, I would over/under cook my own food, they would walk-by and check in frequently on my grill. As a result, I asked to turn the heat down in hopes of easing the staff off me. I was told to put the meat on the grill as I was busy eating and one of the staff took matters into her own hands and started grilling without me asking for help. The tongs that touched raw meat began to touch my lettuce from the help I received. I was even told I was unable to take leftovers home (didnt plan to, but thank you for informing me). It seems that by asking to cook my own food, I created more work for the employees as opposed to lightening their work load. I noticed lots of hovering eyes over my table which made me feel uneasy; as if they didnt trust an adult enough to cook food for themselves. After the meal, I asked the waiter if I was cooking wrong or why I was interrupted frequently and the rational was that staff cook for customers because if customers cook and burn the grill, the chefs would have more work cleaning the grill. I understand issues of liabilities, but find a balance here. Overall, I pay to sit down and enjoy the meal at my own pace and standards; how well cooked a piece of meat is or what I do with my grill space shouldnt concern an employee unless I pose a risk of fire to myself, others or the restaurant. If Im eating too slow and theres people waiting for a table behind me, please let me know and I will speed up. By micromanaging the cooking, it takes away from the experience of kbbq. This is not an issue with the frontline staff but rather managements policies.

Good!!!

Excellent food and service for a reasonable price

Food was amazing, I had the hot stone Bibimbap and it was one of the best I have had. The food is very authentic and true to the culture. On a side note, my friend left a bag at the restaurant, and one of the servers ran a whole block to return it for us. The service is clearly amazing and very friendly. 10/10 would highly recommend. Dietary restrictions: Very inclusive

Amazing service and the food was fantastic and very authentic. Very affordable pricing for the amount of food. One of our friends left their bag inside the store and the server ran a whole block to return it to us. We were seated very quickly and had a table of seven. The wait time for the food was also very reasonable. Overall amazing experience and would definitely recommend it.

Very good Korean food. Great staff. Restaurant is big, clean, and very comfortable.

As soon as you walk in the smell of Korean BBQ hits you and you know its going to be good! We are currently visiting Halifax for the first time and have been trying as many different places as we can. We love Korean BBQ and knew we had to try here. Giant portions of food, fresh and delicious, really nice staff as well. Food wasnt super expensive either!

The service was kind and efficient, the meal was hot and savoury, and the price was truly good value for the quality of food. We tried the bulgogi, the spicy chicken, and the Kimchi soup and the word delicious was tossed around the table many times. I highly recommend this restaurant for authentic Korean dishes.

It s the most delicious Korean restaurant in Halifax! You are kind.

Great Korean food and reasonable priced.

Probably the best meal we had in Halifax!

Great Korean food restaurant. Been there few times with family and friends. The price and quantity are balanced. Service is reasonable and not generally delayed. Would go back at some point.

Loved my first Korean BBQ experience.

Got the bibimbap and the spicy stir fried chicken with vegetables. The chicken was fantastic but had next to no vegetables. The meat portion of the bibimbap was quite small. Overall very tasty, we enjoyed our lunch here.

Been there a couple times now and the food is to die for, all the BBQ options are delicious with thicc portions; my only sorta complaint is that they have Sapporo but not Tsengtao beer wise, but thats not even a real complaint. Delicious, absolutely. Service is quick too, so you dont have to do the awkward is this cooked enough? dance

Just went there last night with my family. Have 2 children aged 8 and 12. Ordered the 4 meat barbecue combo for 3, some pork dumplings and an extra rice. The food was fresh and delicious! The meat was very well marinated. Great portions of meat! Loved the soup, salad, side dishes, rice and veggies that comes with it. Great customer service. Strongly recommend it! Kid-friendliness: Kids loved it

Absolutely had an amazing time and great service. We had the table BBQ with the combo of all the meats. We stuffed ourselves and still had a bunch to pack up!

I recently made it into downtown to try the food at Gangnam. My friend and I split the Royal Rice Cakes and I had the Vegetable Japchae and while they were both excellent I think the Japchae is the most delicious thing Ive ever eaten in my life. The texture, aroma, and flavor were all perfect and it arrived piping hot. I hate going downtown but Ill be back for more of that!

Good experience Portions a little small but fresh and tasty. Kimchi pancake was my favorite added dish. Excellent service Food : 4/5

2023-8-29, dine in at 6pm, only 1/3 seats were taken at that time and we were going to order hotpot, waitress was very unfriendly offered us seats by the door and when I approached to her asking for any other seats but the one by door, she rejected. Very poor service and no next time. Maybe hire some smarter employee. I highly recommend Busan at this point.

I didnt know I would be leaving a Google review like this. I missed Korean food, so I went to a nearby Gangnam BBQ and ordered gamjatang. It was spicy so I asked the server to make it less spicy. The gamjatang arrived and it was the spiciest gamjatang I ve ever had. Still, you cant leave food behind. I was eating and sweating profusely, blaming myself for being so spicy. Only the meat shown at the top has meat. There were only bones underneath, but this was fine. It may be because we all have a hard time making a living. The meat that was left was all dry and dry, but it was still good. It may happen as you go through life, or it may just happen today, so I just thought it would be okay not to come next time. However, the lady who was setting the spoons in front of me (I hope this person isnt the owner...) didnt know I was Korean and started talking behind my back, asking me to eat something so obscene right in front of my face. The embarrassed servers paid attention to me by saying, You must be very busy with customers, but the spoon lady kept muttering with a frown on her face. It was still spicy, so I ate it carefully, wiping my sweat in a corner, and didnt bother anyone. There werent even any other guests in the hall at this time. When I left, I did some calculations in Korean. He never apologized until the end. I hope you take a deep look at yourself and see if you are a dirty person who curses and belittles people who cant eat spicy food. Alternatively, we recommend setting the spoon in the kitchen, in a place where people do not need to see it.

They are very accomodating, my wife like SuperJunior and they taught us how to speak korean on how to say thank you. Vegetarian options: Very yummy and crispy.

Went in for dinner. The waitress was so rude to me for being a party of 1. The restaurant was 75% empty but she wouldnt let me sit where I wanted and told me I should eat fast then because it could get busy. I used to eat here often, I wont go back! Id go to Busan BBQ instead! The food and service are much better!

Great place with quick service, plenty of bbq tables for those so inclined. The deep fried pork dumplings and assorted tempura are great appetizers to share amongst the table

Good and tasty food, fast service, BBQ inside table. Need make small refresh in hall

Excellent BBQ!

Small menu for grill. Chicken, bugolgi, LA Kalbi and pork belly or combo of any 2 or all. However the taste and flavor were superb. Kalbi tang (beef rib soup) was one of the best compared to US or most of Asia outside Korea. Combo grill for 2, soup, bottle of soju and a saporo $112 + tip. Cannot beat this place. Nice to find authentic Korean in Halifax!

I love this place. The food is absolutely amazing and it is such a nice atmosphere. The staff are pleasant and helpful and I would definitely go here for any occasion

Our first time having Korean BBQ. A really fun experience to begin with but the food was also DELICIOUS.

Very authentic Korean dining experience. The servers were friendly, and the Galbi was very good.

The service is really fast. The soups or prepared dishes arent particularly good, but I would recommend the BBQ. It doesnt take too long to cook and it taste great. The servers will also come and help you move around the meat while its cooking, they are very attentive.

Food was good.

Ive been here twice for lunch over the past 3 months and both times have been great. The servers are extremely attentive and will help you cook any BBQ items you order. The food comes out in a timely manner and I never found myself waiting long for anything including refills for side dishes. The decor is simple but lends the perfect atmosphere to the type of restaurant Id want to consistently revisit for lunch. As far as dishes go, everything was solid. I was pleasantly surprised by how good their Chicken Yakitori appetizer was. It was complemented delicious, perfectly cooked, caramelized onion and carrot. My personal favorite was their Spicy Tofu Soup/Sundubu. Im not used to having it with beef (it had a generous amount) but it was great value and taste for the price and overall a hearty meal. I think the next time I visit, Ill definitely try the hot pot share items because they look so good!! I really like this restaurant and after moving back to Halifax from Toronto, its nice to finally find my new favorite Korean spot.

Excellent!

Ramen

Gangnam Korean BBQ Halifax offers an exceptional dining experience! Their signature hotstone Bibimbap is a true delight, bursting with authentic flavors and cooked to perfection. The hospitality shines through with the owner s generosity, going the extra mile by treating regulars like family. Our recent visit was made even more special with complimentary tea and delectable dumplings, elevating the overall experience. It s not just about the delicious food but also the warm and welcoming atmosphere that keeps us coming back for more!

A constant favourite of mine, whether ordering in or going out to eat! I love to have when Im feeling under the weather. Ive had many items from the menu and am never disappointed!

Ive only had the KBBQ here but both times it was good.

Loved the experience felt a bit ignored by staff, food was fabulous would definitely recommend

I really like bbq here. They have a lot of kind of regular menu and its very tasty. I came here first time 4 years ago, after that I kept coming here until now. And I will keep coming here from now too.

Ive been I intrigued by Korean culture as of late. Was wanting to experience a Korean BBQ, didnt not disappoint!!! I will be back!

Amazing services, they even help you BBQ during the busy hours on Saturday night. Their portion of foods are more than enough. Update: last time I went, the service quality changed and they were in rush to turn off the stove when the chicken was still raw. (Probably because near closing time).

The boys ate here 2 weeks ago and it was truly a delight. The food was very good and one of the boys was able to work on his chopstick skills without judgement. The staff were quick and polite, flipping meat for us sometimes, haha! Recommended for anyone who knows a good time.

the food took a while to come but it was WELL worth the wait. i was honestly blown away. really good lighting/overall vibe and friendly staff, also quite reasonably priced given location + quality. and i was so happy to find a korean place that offered fully vegetarion/vegan options! i will be returning for sure.

We will be coming back every time we re in Halifax! The veggie udon is amazing. The staff are very wonderful

Come in for a feast!

Authentic Korean BBQ and dishes. The portion size is well measured with lots of side dishes, so there is no need to order extra food. Love the seasoning and friendly owner and staff. This is definitely an Asian and family style restaurant so you wont be disappointed if setting the right expectations.

Always great food and great service!! Delicious Korean cuisine

excellent service, very nice staff, authentic taste, worth to try..

Really disappointing experience! Firstly, we ordered a kimchi pancake and a Bou Dae hotpot. They forgot to put our pancake to order. It was after 8:00pm and only 2 tables of guests in there (including us). Secondly, the hotpot doesn t deserve the price. The soup base isn t taste good. Most importantly, the waitress never came back to add water and talk us since they serve the food. They look so ruthless and careless about their guests. Not recommended.

Amazing Korean food sooooo good. They also do Korean BBQ and hotpot. Dont miss the lunch specials.

My friends and I had a great experience here. The atmosphere was wonderful, the servers were great at their jobs, and most importantly, the food was incredible. We got the table bbq for four, and all left pleasantly stuffed, agreeing that we d made the right decision to eat there. Hopefully, I ll get to come back the next time I m in the Halifax area.

Very tasty and excellent table service

My first time visiting Gangnam Korean BBQ, myself & a friend both thoroughly enjoyed it . I had the Pork Dumplings and Chashu to start . The dumplings were really good . I did not like the taste of the sauce on the Chashu so much but my friend did . I had a Miso soup , it was good . I also had the Spicy Stir Fried Chicken (Dak Bokum) from the lunch menu . It was served on a hot plate that kept it a good temperature throughout my time eating . It was a perfect level of spice , served with a bowl of steamed rice . The waitress was friendly , attentive and had suggestions when I was unsure of some menu items . The food did not take long at all to come out for a busy lunch hour . We did not have time for the table BBQ but I would love to return when I have more time and try it .

Got hot stone bibimbap. Really liked that it stayed so hot throughout the meal. Pork chashu slices were good, but a little fatty. Pork dumplings were amazing. Highly recommended those.

Good portions and service!

Very friendly staff and the food delicious and fresh. We had the full combo bbq and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend!

If you re craving Korean pork bone soup, this is the place to go in Halifax. Their tofu soup is also very good with generous portions of seafood / beef. Service is quick, there is lots of different options on the menu, and everything tastes so good. Heads up that when you walk in, they will ask bbq or no bbq and you have to decide before they will seat you as only certain tables have bbq. For the a la carte, they have a good sized menu of about 8-10 pages of Korean food, more than enough to choose from. They also give small appetizer dishes called banchan that goes well with your meal. Would highly recommend dropping by and getting a taste of Korea. There are stairs at the entrance and a steep seat of stairs to the bathroom, so it may not be very accessible for those with mobility issues.

Stumbled upon this place without a reservation and was very happily surprised! Excellent bulgogi!

Food was really good. But we felt rushed to eat and go while it wasnt busy. Also once the cooking was done, we wanted to order more beverages but the waitress didnt check on us so we left.

Love Korean bbq and went here for the first time. Food was amazing and reasonably price. The service although wasn t bad but wasn t great either. There was no checking to see how it everything was or to see about water refills and my partner had to ask multiple times for soya sauce. Would be back and hopefully better time

The guy server is so amazing, I dont care how many mistakes you made, but you alway say sorry for it with great attitude , but the girl server, why your eyes alway go up? Young girl, are you the owner over there? We didnt finish our food and you just took away my friends bowl, thats rude. The food was amazing tho.

I loved this place! We came here for our first year anniversary and ordered the Korean Bbq for two. It was delicious!! Very friendly staff as well. As we do not have very much experience with Korean Bbq we werent very confident with the process - but luckily our server guided us through. Definitely would love to go back!

The bbq was delicious and the staff were sooo helpful and friendly!

Our first time trying Korean BBQ and it was a fun and fulfilling experience. Staff were very nice, food was plenty and really good. Well definitely be back to try the other dishes as we watched what others were ordering and our curiosity has been stirred.

Best korean food experience

Good portion, service was nice. Highly recommended.

great food and kind people.

Old food, bad experience

DON T DO WITCH-HUNT. Read the important message below and leave it Whats the difference between you being racist and misinformed through your mouth?

Please filter out distorted comments that deliberately accusing the owner regardless of the facts under the guise of being on the victim s side.

Washroom disgusted me when I entered there, I saw waitress went there before but didn t clean

I trusted it and visited because the ratings were high, and as expected, it was a choice I had no regrets about. Even though it was a busy weekend evening, the owner treated the child kindly, the food was presented neatly, and even the side dishes were delicious. There was also a restroom inside the store, and it was very clean for a restaurant bathroom, so you could feel the owners careful management and cleanliness, so it wasnt a bad place to take a child. The tone of the staff was all very friendly, so I was very satisfied from the time I entered the restaurant to the time I left. And among the staff, especially Ms. Shina or Mr. Shinha? The service was just as good as the pretty face~~^^ Vegetarian options: I only asked for vegetables on the bibimbap menu and ate it. Kid-friendliness: It was a pleasant environment that wasnt bad for visiting with children, and the bathroom was also downstairs. You have to go down a few stairs, but it was clean.

Absolute gem of a spot for Korean food.

Food was good; was there with some colleagues from Korea and they commented on the authenticity of the dish we had.

This was so so good. The menu is large so definitely something for everyone. I will be back for sure. The spicy beef soup left me craving more! It was a large serving so I finished the rest today...a very welcome bonus. Ps..in and out in under an hour.

I used to come here only for dinner, but I came here for lunch, and the portions were plentiful and delicious. The lunch menu is cheaper and more cost-effective. Stir-fried pork, seafood soft tofu, and seafood pancake are all delicious. The staff are also very friendly ^^ I recommend it~~

Super tasty food and really sweet people!!

Wonderful restaurant. Customer service is tremendous. I would definitely recommend it.

My family and I went and shared a few dishes. We were hoping for bbq but all the tables were busy and it was a 30 minute wait so we took a normal table instead. I got a black bean noodle dish (cant remember the name) my brother got ramen, my boyfriend got kimchi fried rice and my mom got something that i cant remember the name of. It was served in a cast iron(?) Bowl and it had bean sprouts, rice, fried egg, and some other things. We also got banana milk. My ratings are: ramen 10/10, black bean noodles 7/10, kimchi rice 4/10 (much to spicy for me haha) and the thing my mom got was 7.5/10, banana milk 8/10 (delcious but very small juice box size. The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful. The service was quite slow but we could tell the servers were doing their best so we didnt mind. The dishes were quite expensive but for someone wealthy this could be a good fit for you.

MUST TRY Had a wonderful lunch that was more than I expected and extremely authentic to even the Korean that went with us. I will warn you spicy is truly spicy here so be forewarned. That being said I m not a spicy guy but I did have this average priced amazing Bulgogi. You could literally taste every vegetable cooked to perfection, the beef was to die for and the blend of flavours was on point along with the service. Thank you so much.

Ive been to quite a few Korean restaurants in Halifax, but this one has the closest taste to Korean tastes and is delicious. The jjamppong soup was refreshing, the sweet and sour pork and shrimp tempura were crispy as if they were fried right after ordering, and the bibimbap felt like other restaurants had just roughly matched the colors, but in a place like Canada where vegetables are expensive, there were quite a lot of vegetables and all the food was really generous. The prices are even cheaper than nearby restaurants with poor ingredients. There was a bit of a wait because it was dinner time, but the food was all great and the owner was friendly so it wasnt worth the wait. I once again realized that there is a reason why stores have so many customers, and that there is no such thing as failure. May you prosper even more~~^^ Kid-friendliness: I visited with a young baby, and the inside of the store was clean, and they provided rice and warm soup separately, and the baby ate all of the rice~~

Warm and spicy soup is always the answer on a cold day.

My Favorite Korea Restaurant in Halifax

Ordered Korean BBQ for 2 combo, wide range of selection on what comes with your combo, marinated chicken, marinated beef, short ribs, pork belly... Comes with appetizers for free, thats kimchi, pickled radish and bean sprout, small salad and miso soup, also comes with two bowl of rice in the combo. All for $50ish dollars and this has became the go to spot for me and the woman every month. One thing they could improve is the air circulation add some fans or something like that because you will smell like BBQ walking out of there.

I walked in on a busy night without a reservation, really wanting a bowl of jjajiangmyun while downtown during a layover. They were so kind, fit me in, and served me the tastiest bowl of noodles Ive ever had.

Wow, just wow. Not only does it smell fantastic in here when you walk in but the food is jus as amazing! We had the spicy seafood Ramen, chashu Ramen both spicy, assorted tempera and spicy rice cake, all 10/10 flavour wise and portion wise. Will definitely be back!

Sterfried chicken is amazing. Over all really great experience
