[SpuGen]

Tons of "good" places on Robson, anywhere west of Nicola on Robson.

There's 2 on RObson and Jervis. Right in the complex where Fogg n Sudds is.
The Upstairs one has good food.
The one downstairs is also good, and is more of a drinking place.

[murd0c]

What good ones are in surrey and langley? I went to il uk jow a couple months back and it was not bad very slow service tho,

^ I've heard good things about a place literally called Korean restaurant in Whalley. Haven't tried it yet though.

Some of my favourites:

Ap Gu Jung on Robson - Great atmosphere on the weekend. Usually packed. Hard to seat a large group but they are open quite late if you can go later.

One of my favourites is Insadong in Coquitlam located at the intersection of North Road and Lougheed. Parking is difficult there so carpool. However, they have a couple of large rooms that can be booked before hand. Great for a large group of about 20ppl.

If accommodating a large group is your priority, I prefer to go a lesser known place in Richmond called Dai Jung Kum. It's located on Bridgeport rd in the same plaza as the Brick & Lay-Z-Boy. Tons of parking and they have a large room in the back that can seat 40 people easily while having your doors closed off from the rest of the restaurant.

All three of the places mentioned above are NOT AYCE except for the small side dishes offered.

Good luck and let us know where you go. I love discovering new Korean restaurants.

Insadong - Coquitlam
Hanwoori - Burnaby Metrotown area

Kyung Bok Palace @ Lansdown is pretty good.

[Ikkaku]

^ I find that the service there is pretty lacking and they heavily favour tables that have at least a single Korean. My three experiences at that restaraunt have been similar which supports my claim, at least for myself.

Never go to Il Uk Jo, I consider it the worst Korean restaurant in Vancouver.

i dont think ive ever had 'good' korean food in the gvrd (except my moms).
true story.

[ziggyx]

Jang Mo Jib in Richmond is pretty good. I went to try Jang Mo Jib on kingsway pass metro. I dunno if its just me but the service there sucked shit. Some friends and I went there waited in the lobby for service but the hostess looked really busy. Five minutes later she brought us to go food when we didn't order anything. Turns out it was for someone else. She then proceeded to seat other people who came in after us. We decided to let it slide. After we got seated no one brought us any tea or offered to take our orders but they were taking other people's orders. No problem we thought so I put up my hand to get a waitress. She tells us to wait a minute and then we go see her set up two fucking empty tables with chopsticks, bowls, etc. At this point we were fed up and walked out of the restaurant.

Aside from my rant lol, I like hanwoori and insadong.

i love ap gu jung. the dish that truely stands out for me there is that deep fried chicken with spicy sauce/pepper+salt?

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

Hanwoori on kinsway gets my vote

[jimkim]

how is the service "bad"? it is that they dont visit your table in a timely manner?

try pushing the call button... its not rude its just there style of service... only come by when called.

the koreans believe that it is rude to interrupt a table while dining unless called for

sooo... next time push the little call button on or beside your table... you'll hear a bell chime and a server will find there way to you

[Ikkaku]

Oh it's because we actually wave them down when we see them walk by, they acknowledge and say 'hold on' but never end up at our table. It's bad service when we have to do this 4 times before somebody actually stops at our table. And a few times they just stood there talking, and I saw a few people leave because they just could not get any service.

[StealthFighter]

never go to cho sun near boundary & kingsway. worst service. took 30 minutes to freaking bring out raw meat for korean bbq.

My parents went to Jang Mo Jib once, and when they got the bill they paid by American Express, and a good 10 minutes later they came back saying they don't take American Express, so my parents paid with their MasterCard.

When the Credit Card invoice came, they saw that their American Express was charged twice, and their MasterCard once, so in total they paid tripled what their bill was, so they went there to show the staff that they've been charged three times. And was told that the manager wasn't there, but will be in in about an hour, so my parents waited until he showed up, and he did.

Then at this point, all the manager did was deny that it was them... seriously, what the fuck? My parents explained the situation and how their Credit Card was charged on the same day, and same location, so obviously it was them, and he still somehow manages to fucking deny it. Then told my parents that they'll look into it and call back, but they never asked them for their phone number or anything.

After my parents told me about the situation I went to the store multiple times and ended up getting all the three meals reimbursed, and I even managed to squeeze some gas money out of them LOL. Wasn't even worth all those trips in the end IMO...

Stay away from Jang Mo Jib!

[bcrdukes]

Although not BBQ, I prefer heading East a bit more to the plaza Samosa Garden is at. There's a much smaller Korean restaurant that is pretty good in terms of food, called Da Rae Oak. Service can be good or slow though. Depends on if you make an effort to call down the waitress, usually only 1 girl working up front, or if you just sit there expecting someone to come check up on you every so often. Overall, food is good, so I go there often.

the thing that boggles me about cho sun is that it took 10 minutes to bring out my friend's fried rice. but it took 30 mins for them to bring out raw beef?

maybe they were butchering a live cow in the back...

U can also try Woo Ri Jib (our house) on the next strip mall (the one with subway) west of Da Rae Oak. The lady who owns it doesn't really speak english though, but everything that they have is written on the wall in english & korean, so you can just point and say how many you want.

The service is good too. :) and the food is pretty good.
All you can eat, BBQ meat, sushi, noodle(idk what it's called) + pancake thing and soup.

I wouldn't go to jang mo jib. They don't give that much. :/ 4 years ago? i went... they gave A LOT of tofu. Less meat :/ I think its around $10+ ? I forgot... It's been a while. I haven't go for soo long. lol I think they only do hot pot tho... ?

My sister told me theres a good BBQ across aberdeen? I think it's BBQ, Im not sureeee... but she said its good and its also All you can eat :) yupyup*

been to both places numerous times. Da Rae Oak wins on price since they have the lunch specials. This Woo RI Jib doesn't have any specials, but it feels like a home cooked meal if I'm a Korean, but I'm not.

Woo Ri Jib only have a limited amount of selection.
Sulluntang, Galbitang, Ggorikomtang, Haejangguk, Bimbimbab, Nengmyun.. etc

Da Rae Oak on the other hand have a more extensive menu, plus you can order soju/beer there too.

[superzero]

Jang mo jib is really not known for their bbq. They're better known for their pork and potato hot pot which is frickn' awesome. But of all the locations, Robson is the best maybe it's because of all the Korean clientele. The one in Richmond is really not that great and neither is the one on Kingsway, imho.

I got curious and tried their other hot pot @ the richmond location.
It sounded interesting, spicy, noodles, blah blah blah.
I figured wow, the pork bone hot pot is epic, so how bad could this be.

Soup was meh, and somewhat spicy.
Instant noodles
Hot dog weiners cut into chunks
1 slice of craft single placed on the very top.

I was like OMGWTF, yes it sounds very similar to the hotdog + instant noodles you can get at hk tea cafes, but that's how they advertise it,
Luncheon meat + instant noodles.

Iunno, you've now been warned. One of the worst things I've ever ordered.
Stay far, far away.

The Korean restaurant on Kingsway.. I think it's called bada Iyagi or something..
one right where arcade used to be.. across from bubble tea place..
hands down without a single doubt the worst food I've ever had..
In terms of freshness, it cannot be beaten unless you are sharing your food with a maggot. Food tasted/smelled horrible... I ended up walking out because it was THAT bad..
I am shocked how a restaurant can be THAT bad and still in business... seriously..

The worst slowest service I ever had and they were not busy there was no justification and no apology when I complained about it we were only one table of six that were there at the time. The waitresses were just lazy and left tables an absolute mess from previous patrons. It took them 10 minutes just to get me my bill when we wanted to leave.

I had the opportunity to go to Han Woo Ri near on Imperial near Kingsway last week. Saturday night, went around 8:30 and the place was packed with a wait! Must be good if it's this busy.

A group of 5 of us were starving after wrenching on cars all day in the hot sun. Ordered one of the BBQ combos along with 3 different stews and some fried gyozas.

Service was excellent. Although language is a bit of a barrier, they are very attentive and polite. In fact, there was a fight there between two neighbouring parties which resulted in a shouting match between some Fob hongers and some fob koreans. Was fun to watch. One of the servers came over to each table and apologized for the scene which was nice.

As for the food, The barbecue meat was a bit tough and wasn't as flavourful I'm accustomed to. The stews come in individual servings but can be shared as small portions. I particularly liked the Kimchi beef stew. The gyozas came fried and were battered really nicely. I definitely recommend them.

All-in-all, it's a decent place. I would go again but not so much for the food but rather to get decent service at a Korean place.

I go there probably once every half a year. Their late night AYCE is pretty good but it's packed and their service is really slow.

The dinner is not the money imo, late night cost 30% less and there are only 2-4 less things compared to the dinner menu.

Your clothes and your car will smell really bad after the meal, so wear stuff that you don't give a shit about.

Talking about this Han Woo Ri place I had some ridicules experience there with my friends.
About 2 years ago a group of us went there for a Birthday Dinner.
At first service was not bad with this Korean Girl serving us. After the food came we rang the bell few times (We waited good few minutes before we rang the bell again) because they never came. So after a long wait someone finally came to serve us and we asked for some chopstick (We were short a pair which they should have given us in the first place) and asked for some more tea. We were very polite the whole time and even felt somewhat embarrassed that we had to ring the bell so many times because they never came (and it wasn't that busy at all).

So after we were done eating we politely told them that we would like to have the Birthday cake now (which we gave them to store it in the freezer for us when we first arrived). This is when it all went wrong.
The girl simply brought the bag with the cake still in the bag and put it on the table beside us. Now what does this suppose to mean? She wants us to leave? We were all kinda shocked when waitress quickly left. So after a few moments we told each other wtf was that? normally when we said we would like to have the cake now means the table will be at least cleaned up somehow so that we have some space to eat the cake.
So, we had to ring the bell again and and kindly ask them to clean up the table so that we can eat the cake. Now, this time this Korean dude came up to us and when we asked him if he could clean the table a bit so that we could eat the cake, he gave us this "WTF, are you out of your mind" look like we are asking him to close down the restaurant or something. Then he mumble something in korean and "cleaning" our table. By "cleaning" he literally furiously threw our plates and dishes into his garbage tray on the cart with such force that's making this "bang bang" sounds which made us really uncomfortable. Also, his raging facial expressing didn't make things easier. So, not wanting to causing more "work" for them we grab the cake from the next table ourselves and unpack the cake. Now we didn't get any plates or forks for the cake and we again had to ring the bell but now they seem to just completely ignoring us on purpose. So I had to go up to them and ask for the plates and forks.

After this disaster dinner none of us where happy with their "service" so we all agreed to not give them any tips. But we didn't want them to think we are some cheap asses like themselves so we wrote on the receipt "Bad Service". So we paid and we were out the door but we were chilling a little bit in front of the entrance to decide where our next destination is. Now, what happens next is the most ridicules thing have experienced from a restaurant. This korean dude came storming out opened the door and crumbled the receipt on which we wrote "bad service" and then proceed to throw it at us.

Now wtf is this shit? They can't take it when ppl let them know what they did not do so well? I mean the service was BAD obviously and they still expect ppl to give them tips? And they get by everytime they don't leave tips?

Sorry for my huge ass story but it just pisses me off everytime someone mentions Han Woo Ri.

i like the place near Broadway and Granville. i believe it was called seoul house. the meat is really well marinated. Service isn't bad, but i think that is only because i go there during slow hours. Although they have sticky and old looking floors.

bumping a pretty old thread but anyone have any new suggestsion for good Korean BBQ? Doesn't necessarily have to be AYCE just some good quality korean bbq.

Will also check out some of the ones listed in this thread (but 6 years old so wondering if things have changed)

There was a small place in "korean town" on north road Burcoquitlam.

They marinade it with real pear juice and it was awesome. Gotta google the name.

[guurl]

I like Royal Seoul on west broadway by alder. Normally go there for family bdays. Never had a problem w/ service. We usually order the house special combo for 6. The portions are pretty big.. It comes with soup, japchae, korean seafood pancakes, gyozas, salad and a platter with a variety of seafood/meats. Mightve forgot to mention one dish from the combo though

I always end up in a coma every time we have dinner there. Lol. It's a very spacious restaurant and the food is good :)

Expensive, tastes pretty good.

Would I go back? A solid maybe....:pokerface:

[Obsideon]

I went to TaBom a couple months ago.
The food was pretty good but as G mentioned it is a bit expensive for what you get. The cheese meat plate is like $14 but you have to order minimum of 2 so it's actually $28 for small'ish plate of chicken + $5 for cheese. It's also really far lol.

A random and weird thing that caught my attention when I went... the place was, literally 120% filled with mainland China diners. Not even exaggerating lol... because I had to wait in line for about 30min. Standing near the middle of the restaurant, all you could hear was mandarin. There were 2 tables we thought we Korean girls, turned out they spoke mandarin too. Every single person in line was also speaking Chinese. Felt really strange. Right outside the restaurant were parked 2 Maserati's and BMW i8 with N signs.

Hasn't been beat for taste and value yet.

price wasa $50 for the plate of chicken + cheese + egg + one soju cocktail. expensive as well imo, it was alright, would I go back? prob not.

Ta Bom is da bomb for Korean BBQ. It's an expensive "bom" though. :troll:

That Dak galbi, corn/cheese hot plate with the spicy chicken is good. Extra 5 dollars for cheese? :rukidding:
