Feels quite safe as well. We waited about 10 minutes, so they're clearly popular. Service was great, they were quick to refill our banchan small dishes, and portions were quite large too. Banchan included potatoes, japchae, octopus, kimchi, and purple rice, which was a nice touch. I don't usually love purple rice, but this was good. No fried fish like some other spots offer, but everything else more than made up for it. Decor is simple and bright inside. Beef Tofu Soondobu, Spicy Level 6 ($18, 8/10) - Pretty solid soondobu, comes with mushroom in the standard option, which was an interesting touch - Portion of beef was moderate - Spice level 6 was tolerable, not overwhelming (though I'm not great at judging spice levels, so probably could've gone higher) - Lots of tofu in the bowl, really enjoyed this - roth flavor was great, not the best ever, but definitely not the worst Overall, really enjoyed this spot. Feels like a mom and pop kind of place, great service, great banchan flavor, and probably one of the best soondobu spots in Austin. Would definitely come back.

Went here with my brother who's in town visiting, along with my wife and parents. We all decided to…read morego with the AYCE option. For meats we tried a solid mix including finger steak, beef tongue, pork belly (both regular and thin), and even beef intestine. We also went through all the banchan, and my parents ordered the veggie pancake and spicy tofu soup. Overall everything was really good. We didn't get a single bad cut and everything was flavorful and cooked well. What really made this place stand out though was the service. MJ took care of us and was incredible from start to finish. Since it was our first time, she walked us through the menu and even helped cook the meats so we could actually relax and enjoy our time together. She stayed on top of the grill, swapping it out right when needed, and was always checking in to see if we needed anything or wanted more banchan. What stood out the most was how thoughtful she was with my parents. She made sure they had food on their plates without overdoing it, which was such a small detail but meant a lot. The food was great, but MJ really made the experience. Definitely coming back.

There was a table beside us that i understand was having a good time but was so loud that everyone else was looking at them.

The food is just okay overall, not outstanding compare to some other Koreans restaurants even in Austin. Chef needs more work to make some authentic Korean dishes. Happy hour wine is good price.

Although I wasn't a fan of the batter, it wasn't a big deal. Good with rice and onions add freshness! Short Rib 4/5 This has a lighter flavor. The first time I went it wasn't great because it was chewy but the second time I went it was delicious! Steamed Egg 2/5 Although this was hot and soft, there was no flavor at all other than egg. I wouldn't get it again. Kimchi Pancake 4/5 This was crispy and good but it was a bit doughy and it needs more kimchi. The sauce was yummy though! I like vinegar flavors so this sauce was more salty than tangy. It also had a yummy onion flavor. Pork Belly 5/5 Although this came plain and seems like not much, it was actually very delicious! The pork belly was juicy, tender, and it had a nice fat flavor. Yang Dak 5/5 This is a very saucy, sweet, savory, and delicious dish! I enjoyed the fried rice cakes that came with it, and the sauce added so much to it! The radish was bitter but I'm not sure if there was something wrong with my tastebuds. The flavor was sweet, savory, and very gochujang. Juicy and crispy! Kimchi Stew 5/5 This kimchi stew is fresh, spicy, salty, tangy, and everything needed after a long day! Honestly, the personal serving was big and enough for 3 people. Definitely try this out! Good vibes at night, good service, not bad prices compared to nearby places, check it out!

We walked in at 9:03 PM on a Tuesday expecting they were still open based on the posted hours, but were told they had already closed. While I understand businesses have to close at some point, what was disappointing was the way it was handled. Instead of a polite, "I'm sorry, we just closed," the hostess greeted us with a condescending, "Uh, are you meeting someone here?" The interaction came across as unnecessarily rude and left a poor first impression. Accurate business hours and a more courteous response would have made all the difference.

Visiting Austin, and decided on this spot as it was nearby…read more order the seafood tofu soap, medium spice level. i was suprised by the banchan that included some fish and also the OG style rice. have not had this rice in a while. most korean spots i frequent just go with rice cooker these days well, i still remember the whole tea and rice deal to get the crunchy rice off and drink after dinner as sort of dessert. not really, its pretty much just rice water in some korean tea.. not something i crave... i do like the crunchy rice bimbibop style... i like the banchan, the one that stood out was the white veggie noodle like one that was in kewpie dressing. i think it was cabbage. taste like coleslaw, so i think it is cabbage. total was 20 cash. there was 4% discount for cash. either way, i was doing 20 as dish was $16. end up with $3.40 tip 21% all good. and the soup was as expected. 5 star all day when u can get good tofu soup for 20 buck all inclusive...

With all that being said, the food here is serviceable. It's fine, you're getting food court Korean food so if you temper your expectations. You'll get a little a tiny amount of like two banchan. My Yookgaejang was mild-ain't no other way of putting it. You can tell that the broth wasn't cooked with gochujang so you didn't get that rich, spicy flavor. Another visit I got the bibim naengmyun and it also just didn't quite get there. Just a little on the plainer side, not just talking about the lack of heat.

We ordered the ox knee bone soup. The soup was great and had lots of meat in it! I was surprised by how many different side dishes it came with because usually food court meals come with bare minimum. I would highly recommend this place - the location is kind of hidden in comparison to the other stalls with bright signs so I can see why people end up eating the other places tha this spot.

Shocked to find such an amazing Korean restaurant just outside of Austin in Round Rock. I had…read morehonestly started to give up on Korean food after moving here from Dallas--cough Carrollton, IYKYK--but Ghama Zone reminded me what good Korean food is actually like. Unfortunately, I was too busy eating and socializing to take many photos, but the bossam in particular really stole the show. It was soft, flavorful, and not funky at all, which is one of my biggest pet peeves with bossam. It also came with lettuce leaves and soybean paste, which made every bite so satisfying. Their soup, which I did manage to photograph, was also amazing. The broth was clear yet refined and full of flavor. The beef rib had more meat than I could even finish and was incredibly tender. Overall, Ghama Zone is a great spot if you live nearby and are craving solid, comforting Korean food around Austin.

Food: FRIED CHICKEN…read moreWINGS [YANGNYEOM] (19.95$) - I loved this one. It is fried to perfection. Crispy, thinly battered so not too greasy or oily. The chicken is juicy and tender, and the sauce is sweet, sticky, and flavorful! Portion sizes are really good too! Big chicken!! GALBI TANG (22.95$) - It was warming and a bit sweet which was nice. The soup was savory and sweet and comforting. The beef was soft and tender too. It also came with glass noodles inside as well. SPICY PORK (18.95$) - The pork was also good. It was not spicy, so don't worry about that if you are not good with spice. The pork was tender and soft, not chewy so that was great. I loved that it was not too oily, but had the perfect amount of sauce for an infused flavorful bite. They give banchan: kimchi, fish cakes, potato, and other sides. Overall no complaints for the food! Service: Everything came out fast and hot. The staff are nice and helpful. Ambiance: Very cozy vibes. Feels authentic and homestyle. Great to go with friends or family or even as a date. Not loud.

They had a fantastic variety of veggies and quality meats to choose from. I went with the Tom Yum for my Q pot flavor, and it was okay. Maybe next time, I'll ask them to skip the tomatoes. It throws the Tom Yum flavor off. The meat was good and the salad bar had a great selection but the food seemed a bit scarce. Perhaps because we went an hour before closing. There were still a few slices of watermelon and orange left. Be sure to try the shrimp and crawfish mix. I had attempt to go for seconds but when I came back, there was not much to get. The customer service was fantastic and very attentive. I'll definitely be back when I'm in town to give it another try..maybe a bit earlier so there's still plenty of food at the bar.

Then, the server told us to recenter through the original doors. Kan sushi shares the same space as the bbq. You can literally see across the room but cannot crossover. Opted for the à la carte instead of the all you can eat since we didn't want to overeat. Be aware that if you order all you can eat on the weekends, it's the same as the dinner price. Everything we ordered was delicious! Yam bam cruncher roll, buttery shrimp, tiger roll, truffled salmon. Nigiris are all two pieces. We also got carbonara udon, but they substituted the udon with ramen without telling us. They cooked it and the server told us to try it...I was like...we didn't order that. I don't have a problem with ramen but this is the curly instant noodle kind, which is significantly different from udon in texture and size. It ended up being comped. I would come back and try the AYCE.
