Came here with a group of 6 for my birthday and it was such a fun and filling meal! I made a reservation through Google and it was super quick and easy. We got 4 orders of the dak galbi with rice cakes, cheese, an order of the spicy buckwheat noodles, and fried rice at the end. I think getting 4 portions was plenty for our group and we were so full at the end. Make sure to save some room to get the fried rice at the end because it's one of the best parts of the meal! I do wish you were able to choose your spice level because it wasn't as spicy as I would've liked, but it was still good nonetheless. Service was quick and the staff was really attentive. I highly recommend coming with a group of friends because it's such a fun meal to share, and you need a minimum order of at least 2 portions. It is a bit pricey per order but that's why it's best to go with more people.
Portions are just HUGE at this place. Came here with 3 other people and we ordered the 3 person portion. This was definitely enough for 5-6 people. The min portion order is 2 so keep that in mind Tip for girls: go on your hair wash day The waitress was really nice and made us feel really welcome. The taste of the food is average and nothing too special. Spice level was okay. I think she went lighter on us because we weren't Korean Great spot to go if you're hungry. At the end, can make it fried rice as well. I forgot to take a picture of that. We ordered the 2 portion for fried rice and it was huge as well Just huge portions here
Tasty Korean restaurant on Northern Blvd! We came with 8 people and split into 2 tables and each table got the Chef Special to split between 4 people. We got a mix of squid, pork and chicken, with added ramen, and fried rice. Our table got the "non-spicy" version but it still had a decent kick to it. Great meal if you are planning to split family style. If you try to order this with 2 people, you will be stuffed! The staff were super nice, cooked the meal for us on the grill on our table, and were very interactive.
Tiny and easy to miss, this place is a great place for groups to get yummy food in Queens. Most people know about Korean Bbq but not many people know about dak galbi. It's Korean spicy chicken cooked in front of you with cabbage, sweet potato and rice cakes. It's fun and filling, but not cheap. You have to order a minimum of 2 orders of the dak galbi ($25 each). When I come here with 4 people, I usually order 2 orders (which is the minimum) and add the fried rice for after. They also give a few banchans and an order of steamed egg. Also, don't forget to add cheese to your dak galbi for an extra layer of yumminess. Save some of the dak galbi so they mix it in with the fried rice. The rice gets nice and crispy on the hot plate just like dolsot bibimbap. The staff are nice and they cook the food for you, so you don't have to worry about not knowing what you're doing. The menu is small (they took away half their menu after Covid), but there's something for everyone.
Have been wanting to try dak galbi for a while and glad I was able to finally come here! It was a cool experience having everything cooked fresh in front of you. While it tasted good, I wanted more depth to the flavor of the overall dish - felt like it was mainly the spice that dominated the flavor. The cheese was definitely a nice addition. Definitely leave room for the fried rice at the end! If you're not super hungry, 2 portions is probably good enough for 4 people. We got 3 portions for 4 people and were all stuffed at the end.
Dak Galbi with cheese & ramyun is SO FREAKIN BOMB. (Does anyone say bomb anymore??) Love that it comes with veggies - I was skeptical at first when they bought it out and started cooking but you must trust the process. Get regular spicy unless you want to die. We ate it twice when it was hot as hell outside so I can't wait to have this when it's cold as hell instead. This would be great comfort food in the winter for sure. Nothing like a cool bowl of Makgeolli to wash down the heat with. Don't get soda, it will make it worse. If you don't want alcohol stick with water. Unfortunately, you have to get a minimum of two orders so unless you're capable of eating a LOT like some mukbang status then go with at least one more person. I went once with my bf and another with my friend and neither of us could finish it even though it's all we ordered. Damn, I'm craving it now.
Convenient location on northern to grab a meal with friends. I stopped by with another friend and just got their stew since we weren't hungry enough for their dakgalbi, but everything we got was good. Will be back another day to try out their specialty!
This restaurant is perfect for a chill night eating spicy chicken with an ice cold beer. It's a no frills place and just be warned that you will need to wash your clothes at least twice to get rid of the kitchen smell but it's so worth it.
It was time to eat some (spicy chicken). It's been awhile. They give you some delicious side dishes including the egg souffle. We asked for 2 orders among 3 people and added rice cake, udon noodles and cheese. We were very full, but asked for one bowl of rice for bbim bbim bap. Service is great and you consume plenty of delicious foods!
Doraon 1.5 Dak Galbi's specialty is in the name. I first tried dak galbi, or spicy stir-fried chicken, in Korea, and I loved it. This is one of the only places in NYC where you can order this dish, which seems wild to me because it's not that difficult to make. You have to order a minimum of two portions, so go with at least another person or two. The most basic version of the dak galbi comes with spicy marinated chicken and cabbage. From there, you can customize it with a bunch of toppings. I usually add rice cakes, sweet potato, and cheese. I also get it mild, because it's still decently spicy. This is a Korean place after all... I don't think they actually know what "not spicy at all" means. When you're about halfway or 2/3 through, make sure to ask for the fried rice option. Along with rice, they also bring over some kimchi, bits of seaweed, lettuce strips, and bean sprouts, which all get dumped onto the grill and mixed with whatever's still on there. With all this, the "two-portion meal" easily becomes enough for four or five meals. They also have a decent selection of banchan, and you get a tiny bubbling pot of gyeran jjim (steamed egg), one of my favorites. The dak galbi is simple yet so tasty and comforting, and it's especially perfect for winter.
This restaurant was definitely a unique experience. It kind of reminded me of hibachi, but instead, it is Korean and on a small grill. The place isn't too big, but it isn't too small either. There were enough seats for the restaurant to not get too crowded. My friends and I came on a Friday night around 6PM, and it wasn't too busy, so we were able to get seated easily. The waitresses are super nice, but they would push you to order more since their dishes are meant for one person (we had a party of 5). However, if we didn't want it, they wouldn't keep prying. The service was pretty fast too; we didn't have to wait long for them to come out with the food to cook. We ordered 3 dak galbis, which is a spicy chicken dish. It comes with the chicken (of course), rice cakes, sweet potatoes, and cabbage. I feel like the proportions were really odd; there was A LOT of cabbage, a moderate amount of chicken, and like 4 pieces of rice cake and sweet potatoes. I just wished there were more of an even mix. You also have the option to add different things like noodles, cheese, and fried rice after they finished cooking the meats. We decided to order a fried rice to finish off the meal and it was very delicious. Other than all of the dak galbi and fried rice, they give a few side dishes, which is great to start off with. Overall, I enjoyed the meal. It was a good and different experience. I would come back another day for a special occasion, since it was a little pricy in my opinion.
This is probably the only place in Queens that I know of which sells dak galbi, a Korean spicy chicken dish. It's unique here since it's cooked right in front of you! The restaurant has a good amount of tables and doesn't get crowded so it's not likely that you'd have to wait. The waitresses are nice and it can be a little of a language barrier but the menu does have English on it so it's okay. They're also kind of pushy to make you order more, saying that one order is for one person but it is definitely a lot. There is a minimum of 2 orders though. The dak galbi comes with chicken, a few pieces of rice cakes, a few pieces of sweet potato, and A LOT of cabbage! It cooks fairly quick and it gets really hot from being cooked right in front of you. You can add noodles, cheese, and other items as well for an extra cost. I added cheese and fried rice for the end of the meal which was very yummy. There's also a few side dishes that comes to the table which is a good, refreshing change to the hot meal. They also give a fluffy steamed egg as well. Overall I really enjoyed the meal although it was kind of pricey for what it was. It was still a good experience and yummy. They also give yakult (a small probiotic yogurt drink) at the end of the meal!
This was my first time getting chicken galbi in Flushing. There was plenty of seating though it was around 7-8pm on a Sunday. We were seated right away for a party of 4. Every table has a built in grill in the center. The menu has so much to choose from. We ordered the chicken galbi with cheese and fried rice after. There wasn't too much variety in the side dishes though; they were mostly Pickled vegetables. We did get some steamed egg and white kimchi. Get the portion amount for 2; it goes a long way. Toward the end we recieved complimentary korean yogurts. I would give it a five star if there was more than just one bathroom.

Four of us came to try this place Wednesday night- definitely worthwhile! There was no wait, we were seated immediately, and the food was brought out quickly. Food: 4/5 I love the idea of cooking the food in front of you! The chicken was delicious with the veggies and noodles (add on ramen!) But the best part was when they mix the rice in because it's such delicious fried rice with the saucy chicken and veggies! You can ask for extra hot chili sauce to spice it up. Ambience: 4/5 A small, casual family restaurant that was reminiscent of this type of cuisine in Korea. The service was courteous and quick. read more
I've been here twice, and the place was never too packed when I went. Service is great, the food is even better. The chicken is delicious. Juicy. The portions are huge though. I always leave with leftovers, no matter how many people I'm eating with. It can get really spicy, but that might just be me (people tell me I can't handle spice...). Also, you probably don't need the ramen noodles in there. Extra carbs, and I personally never finish them. read more
Reincarnation of the same place further east on Northern blvd, known historically (and literally translated as) as 1.5 chicken ribs. They have one main dish - spicy marinated chicken cooked on a massive hot plate. Came back again today for lunch. The basic is made with chicken, cabbage, rice cakes and sweet potato. You order by # of servings. After it's cooked a bit, you can order different mixins. Our (my wife and I) favorites are the udon noodles and ramen noodles. Then when that's almost done, you can get rice which makes the whole thing into a fried rice kind of thing. The rice has some seaweed and kimchee. The place has a few side dishes - fish cakes, salad, spicy marinated peppers and daikon, and steamed egg - pretty standard, but not what you're here for! And at the end everyone gets a small yogurt drink to cool you off. Delish. Perfect for a cold day with friends! PS - To the gentleman who compared this place unfavorably to the original in Korea that it shares is name with, you may be 100% right, but it's the best compared to anything around here! read more

Initially I thought this was a hole in a wall place for that their sign is very small and doesn't catch any attention. But it turns out it was pretty pooping on a Thursday. Put your order down immediately if you can because the food take a while to cook. If you are hungry you should order some appetizers- cooking take at least 20 mins for the food to be ready to eat. Service was pretty prompt. Waitresses does a pretty good job cooking and tossing the mixture around for you. Con- there isn't much selection on the menu but I guess people go there to order the few items they are known for. read more
This place is just wow. $16.99 per person for dak gal bi (spicy marinated chicken) Huge portion that has vegetables, rice cake, and sweet potato.

I've seen this spot in passing for years and decided to try it. Can't get enough. I get the dakgalbi medium spice with addition of sweet potatoes, rice cakes, and top it off with cheese. The fried rice is a must at the end and I ask for extra cheese cause you can never have enough cheese. read more
I came here with a group of my friends on a Wednesday afternoon. There were plenty of seats for a group of 6 and we were seated by the door. Service was prompt and even the side dishes of steamed eggs, pickled spicy vegetables, and radish were good. We ordered 4 servings of the chicken galbi, with moderate spice and added cheese and at the end, fried rice. It was a good heaping of food and we left feeling satisfied. I would come again :) everyone was attentive and the food was deliciousss! read more

Honestly, this place never fails to make me feel warm and welcome. The second you go in, you're greeted by the servers, usually the same (or aunties in Korean). They seat you quickly and the ordering process is simple. I usually go for the regular dakgalbi with the extra ramen, sweet potato and cheese. Two friends and I headed in around 7:15 on a Monday night and it was empty when we walked in. We ordered 2 portions of dakgalbi for the three of us (with room for fried rice after). We got settled pretty quick and the place started to fill up as we started our meal. The food is always so so so good. It's the only dakgalbi place in Queens (to my understanding) and it makes me miss Korea so much. Of course, the price can't compare to Korea, but the taste is definitely authentic and all there. We actually felt pretty stuffed after going through our 2 portions, the banchan and gyeranjjim (steamed egg). We still decided to get two portions of fried rice because you can't come and NOT end the meal with bokkeumbap. Food is always 5/5 that I wish I could always come here but it is really filling so I try to come once in a while. And A+ for the aprons because I always seem to be wearing white when I come. The service, though, is always (of course) amazing. The Korean aunties are always so so so sweet when I go. It makes the dining experience so much better because they're always cooking for you with a smile on their faces. They make me feel comfortable and welcome, it honestly makes me feel like I'm in their home when I'm eating here. I remember the one time when one of the aunties said my hair looked so soft even though it was light in color (I had gotten it done in korea a few months prior) and she asked me if she could touch it. I don't know what it is, but they're really happy to cook for their customers. I see them making conversation with everyone that dines in and there's just something really special here. This place holds a special place in my heart for their service and food. Until next time! read more

I always order dak-galbi here (minimum of 2 orders, $15.99 each), with cheese and white rice (extra $ for both). Comes with free steamed egg as an appetizer/side dish. The dak-galbi here is just a combo of chicken, lots of cabbage, rich cake, and sauce. Usually, after eating about half of the dish, I order rice and the waitress mixes it into your dak-galbi, along with soybean sprouts and small lettuce leaves, making it taste like bibimbap with chicken. I do recommend eating the dish with rice though, because it is kind of salty due to the amount of sauce they put in. They cook everything for you and you can alter the spiciness of your food, which is nice. read more

Dak is Korean for chicken (dont confuse with Duck, which is Ori in Korean...). So Dak Galbi is basically chicken bbq. We came here because wife was craving for authentic dak galbi, and we drove past this place a couple times. The restaurant is fairly clean with good ventilation and lightning. On Sunday evening 9pm place was full. Service was pretty attentive and polite despite a full restaurant. We ordered Bibim Makguksu and Dak Galbi x2 (minimum two orders, each order 14.99). The banchans were minimal. The dishes of obligatory basics plus steamed egg. Steamed egg is pretty tasty but the rest were average at best. Dak galbi used only drumstick meat it seems, without any bone. They use a big stone plate heated by gas stove to cook the chicken mixed with generous amount of cabbage and their special spicy sauce. The result is very tender and flavorful pieces of chicken interlaced with slightly crispy cabbage. After enjoying the chicken/cabbage you could ask waitress to add some rice and seaweed to fry together to make chicken fried rice. Definitely worth a try. By the way they charge $2.00 for a small ball of white rice and only $3.00 for a bigger bowl of rice with seaweed AND fry it for you. You would be better off holding off your rice craving until fried rice. Makguksu is a cold, spicy noodle dish that is like a cross between Bibim naenmyeon (spicy cold noodle) and joi-myeon (hard noodle). Its fairly tasty but I think I prefer the thinner naenmyeon noodles. Pretty good dining experience. If you are a big fan of dak galbi definitely try this place out considering the lack of dak galbi specialized restaurant in NYC. read more

One star for okay service. Zero star for food... Honestly, I have to say it was disappointing dak galbi I've ever tasted. I don't really care service. I was just expecting half of dak-galbi taste I've tasted in Korea. And it was just so below my expectation. I wasn't expecting exact same quality, but this dak-galbi taste nothing at all. I wonder they didn't even marinate the chicken. The sauce was not spicy, don't feel any spice at all.. I couldn't finish the none-tasting chicken, so asked to add fried rice. Honestly, in any terrible restaurants, the fried rice never fails. Never ever. Well, I was wrong. I failed. I'm a fried rice killer, but couldn't finish half of it. First time I left food behind and left. So sad... read more
Pretty yum! They cook the meat right in front of you in this big grille. We had the chicken mix with squid and the portion was pretty large and came with cabbage as well. At the end, they pour some cheese on top. It was nicely flavored and delicious. At the end, they come and sautéed the rest of the dish with some rice and veggies and that kind of taste like bibimbap and delicious as well. The only thing is the side dishes were very limited and only 3 dishes of kimchi, picked radish, and fish cake Overall a good place and low carb friendly for those who do low carb diet! read more

Came to dinner family and everything was delicious. We had the marinated beef ribs and kimchi soup. Kimchi soup tasted homemade and was exactly what we needed on this cold night. The beef was not overtly sweet and cooked perfectly. Service was great too- everyone was very sweet and attentive!! Give it a try if you're in the area read more
My bf and I came here bc of a nyt article. The language barrier is a real struggle for this restaurant. To be honest, if the language barrier wasn't there, I probably would've given this place 5 stars. Due to the language barrier, there were a couple mistakes that occurred. The food itself is really good. We ordered the classic chicken along with pork and got cheese for an additional charge. It came with rice cakes and a couple of other things they listed, but we never received them. I'm unsure if I'd come back. read more

After a trip to Korea this summer, where Dakkalbi was a staple, I was itching to find a place in the states that served it up. And here it is! Dak kalbi is consists of marinated chicken, cabbage, topokki (rice cakes), and potatoes. The mixture is all stirred up together in front of you with some gochujang (red chili paste). AND DONT FORGET TO ADD THE CHEESE! It all sounds so strange, but its a melting pot of delicious once you eat it. Then at the very end, they add rice to give you a completely different meal! It can be a bit daunting to come in here, not speaking korean, or just not knowing what to do, but the waitstaff is extremely friendly. Seriously a must try for anyone who is unfamiliar; korean food goes much further than just kbbq! TRY TRY TRY. read more

They very have simple menu, we order 2 dak galbi, because there is minimum 2 order to be able to cook at the table, they don't have that much ban chan, only 3 or 4, the fish cake is pretty good, additional we order cheese, sweet potato and rice for extra money. There is 2 steps of cooking, 1st they sauteed the chicken, cabbage and sweet potato, when it's cook through, they put the cheese on the top, it's melting and ready to eat. I suggest to get the cheese, it's just like pizza. It's different experience, but the sauce it self is a little bit plain, taste less. 2nd step, they add the rice and sauteed it together with the chicken. Service is intensive. read more
Fantastic! We ordered 2 servings of the chicken + cabbage, and decided to go with all of the extras (ttuk, cheese, sweet potato, and fried rice after). We also ordered an order of a potato pancake. The potato pancake was meh - I was expecting something awesome like what's served at Geo Si Gi (their potato pancake is AMAZING!), and so the limp smallish pancake was a disappointment. The chicken galbi was awesome! Dark meat chicken with a spicy sauce (but not that spicy) with cut up cabbage cooked up on the table. The banchans are a bit sparse, but we left really full. For 3 of us, it came out to $22 per person, which wasn't that bad. Service was attentive, although I can't imagine how only 2 ladies can handle a full restaurant! PS - be careful of splashing sauce when they're cooking on the table. I got a sprinkling of sauce on my bag, which I didn't really care about, but just a warning! They also offer takeout of the other entrees (just not the chicken that's cooked table side, obviously). read more

This is possibly the only place in NY that specializes in DakGalbi. You order your portions, add whatever extras you want - cheese, udon, ramen, etc. The workers stir up the cabbage, meats, sauces, and extras and it's all ready to eat. My party of 4 found 3 serving sizes good enough. I personally found the pork galbi to be better than the chicken galbi. Something about the sauce here never hits the spot for me. After you're 80% done with your meal, you have the option to stir fry in rice. Make sure you keep it flat and spread out long enough so it becomes crispy! I love the intimacy of being able to talk over a center grill. The workers pretty much give me your auntie next door vibes. They're super friendly. Go check them out! read more

The dakgalbi was good but I don't think it's worth the price. You have to get two orders minimum and that's already 30 dollars but each topping/mix in you get is 3 dollars on top of that. The dish is yummy but I wish they gave us more cheese and I personally got sick of the chicken by the end. But the rice cake and ramen gave it more variety and texture lol I definitely wouldn't go to this place frequently but maybe again in a while. read more

My friend took me to this place a couple days ago. The food was good however a "little spicy" was extremely spicy for me. I can handle spicy but it passed my limit. Was good anyway. Waitress was very attentive and nice. It was dark in the restaurant . And careful not the touch the bottom of the table with your legs. What was really great was the complimentary yakult at the end. It hit the spot ! This would be a great place to eat with friends/family . read more

I went there at 7pm on a Friday night and there was no wait for a table of 4. It was packed but I guess a table of 4 cleared up right before we got there. We ordered 3 servings of dak-galbi (chicken galbi) for the 4 of us. Food comes out fast cus they cook it right in front of you. It's mild but you can make it as spicy as you want. Just tell your waitress. Add cheese!! It melts perfectly and goes so well with the spicy goodness. If you like spicy I recommend you eat it with the jalapeño side dish that comes out with it. Adds the perfect crunch and cools down the hot chicken. After you're done ask for however many bowls of rice you want mixed in the left over sauce. This is honestly the best part of the dinner. When you ask for the check they give you yakult! read more

The chicken galbi here is very delicious!! Minimum of 2 orders for it to be cooked at the table. You can have it mild or spicy and for an additional fee of $3- $4 each you can also add extra rice cake, sweet potato, ramen, or mozzarella cheese. I'd get the cheese since there's a little bit of the rice cake and sweet potato in the dish already. read more
