It was flavorful and perfect for sharing. A few of the tables have partition walls, which gave us a nice sense of privacy and made the meal feel more relaxed. We arrived close to closing time, but the lady who helped us was incredibly kind and welcoming. She never made us feel rushed, and her warm hospitality made our visit even more memorable. If you're looking for authentic Korean food and friendly service, I definitely recommend this place!

Looking around the area & this seemed to be the only place i could find at a decent distance with korean corn dogs. IMMACULATE. small little shop, seems clean, didn't take long, decent price & DELICIOUS! i got the full mozzarella dogs, one hot cheeto where they are generous with the fine powder they use- is too good, the second with the potato topping & may i say it's crispy, crunchy and delectable! they let you DIY your sauces & have a good selection of options. Ever since korean hotdogs went viral a few years back & i had my first one, i've always been obsessed! love to try around & let me tell you these are the best i've tried. Found my go to place, ABSOLUTELY would recommend!

SHILLA goes down as the first Korean restaurant I have visited in Alabama. I gotta say, SHILLA was…read morenot my restaurant of choice however my grandfather insisted this spot was great. I came in with an open mind​ but left unimpressed. From the outside, SHILLA could use some work. It looks kind of old and dingy. The inside is a bit of an improvement, but it was poorly lit. There was not a very welcoming feel when we entered. Service wise, they seemed short staffed for a weekend. Everyone was cordial however the service was kind of lacking. No one checked on us after the food arrived. We wanted to order some more food and we didn't see anyone from our seats so we pushed the button which yielded no response until the 4th try. I understand there was a party in the other room, but other than that group--there was no one else in the restaurant except us... Food: Off the bat, I was disappointed because I tried to ​order sushi and was told it was not offered on the weekends--this is not stated anywhere on the menu. Here are some of the items we ordered: *Soontofu/Tofu Soup ($8.95) *Japchae ($12.95) *Haemulpajun/Seafood pancake ($12.95) *Bulgogi ($14.95) *LA Galbi ($18.95) Food-wise, the wait was super long and the food was MEH. The tofu soup didn't arrive sizzling hot like I'm used to and lacked in taste. The LA Galbi was relatively the best out of everything we ordered, although it had quite a bit of fat the first time around. So we ended up ordering two more orders of galbi. Second time around was much better (less fat and much hotter in temperature when it arrived). Overall, SHILLA is not bad if you're nearby. But for me, I'd check out what other Korean restaurants in Montgomery has to offer before coming back.

Service is very nice and the portions are very fair. One might not expect such excellent Korean in Alabama, but with a very large Korean population due to a Hyundai factory nearby, you will be not disappointed.

I feel like this place has changed recently. We went for lunch, and the experience was very…read moredifferent from the last time we went. The banchan was a lot more basic and less variety. I remember getting 6-8 dishes before, and this time we only got 4. The kimchi was quite good, but the rest was pretty boring. We were offered refills, so I'm not saying they're stingy. The menu seems very limited. Maybe this was a lunch thing? But I saw the same menu posted on the walls in the booths. No beef bulgogi? No fried chicken? No tteokbokki?! We both got the dol sot bibimbap, which was maybe the best iteration of that dish that we have had outside of Korea, so I think that is an improvement, but we felt like there wasn't much on the menu for us other than that dish. When we want to have that again, we will gladly come back. I just wish there was more variety. The service was extremely friendly. I have no complaints there, and I'm thankful for the welcoming atmosphere. I'd recommend you try this restaurant (maybe the new menu will resonate with you), it's just not the same as it used to be, and I would not trust old pictures of the menu.

It wasn't easy to find an authentic Chinese spot in Montgomery, but I'm glad I found East China! My personal favorite is the kung pao chicken.

It doesn't get better than that! Overall, I had a great experience at East China. The service was quick and efficient. The food was tasty. I can't wait to be back!

I visited with my friend last night for dinner who had never tried Korean food before. My exposure to Korean food is my grandmother's amazing cooking. I was VERY pleased with Fish & BBQ's offerings. They were delicious!! They serve everyone chilled rice tea (so addictive - if you've never tried it, you need to! There are so many health benefits). We ordered mandu (pot sticker dumplings) for an appetizer. They were warm, crispy, and delicious and accompanied by banchan (small side dishes that are common in Korean cooking - different varieties of kimchi, etc.). My friend and I both ordered bulgogi bibimbap. It was a perfect balance of sweet, savory, spicy, fresh, crunch, and tender! I was stuffed to the gills by the end, and my bill came out to less than $25. I think the value of this place is amazing, and the food is cooked with love, and it shows! I can't wait to come back.

From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by how warm and inviting the atmosphere felt--clean, cozy, and just the right amount of laid-back charm. It was the kind of place that instantly makes you want to sit back and stay awhile. Let's talk about the service--top-notch. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made me feel valued as a customer. You can tell they care about every detail and take pride in the experience they're providing. Now, the food... whew. I ordered the Chicken Pad Thai, Chicken Drunken Noodles, and the Steamed Dumplings. Each dish came out fresh, hot, and bursting with flavor. The Pad Thai had the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and a little kick. The Drunken Noodles? Bold, spicy, and beautifully layered with tender chicken and veggies. And those dumplings? Soft, juicy, and packed with flavor--easily some of the best I've ever had. Everything from start to finish was a 10/10. If you're looking for incredible food, excellent service, and a vibe that makes you want to come back again and again--this is the spot.
