Service is good. The aunties are quick and knowledgeable. Such a fun time every time we come here!

Hidden Korean gem on Kapiolani…read more I've gone here once during late night after the club. They had karaoke and we could order food and I was so hungry. I just remember their Kim Chee soup being delicious. When I got sick, I needed to order soup and refound this place on Uber Eats. Their Spicy Beef soup is so good. Too. I've had another one, but I forget their name. Soups are so good here. But I usually always order take out. Kimchi jeon is super crispy in the outside, but nice and soft on the inside. Galbi has amazing flavor. The owner really liked us when we went in during the night time, and I think having karaoke with your Korean food just makes it perfect for a restaurant. Overall, great vibes and would go back.

Came to Jagalchi on a Friday night closer to 7pm without reservations for a party of 7. We had to…read morewait around 15 minutes for a table. They have free parking in the small lot right outside their restaurant, but there is also paid parking across the street. We were lucky, and people were leaving as we got there. For 7 of us, we got the rabokki, meat jun, half order of bossam, and kimchee pancake. This was more than enough food for everyone, and we probably would have skipped the kimchee pancake next time. The food was really good, and I would definitely recommend the bossam if you're with a group. The meat is super soft and flavorful, and even the half order was a generous portion. We also ordered the lemon soju and yogurt soju pitchers. They have tablets for you to order the food, which was super convenient. The food comes out pretty quickly, and the service is friendly. Overall, would recommend here for good Korean food and fun vibes.

The restaurant gives off Korean pub vibes, decently sized, and best suited for smaller groups. We ordered a variety of food: chicken combo, kimbap, bulgogi, bossam, and spicy rice cakes. The food was very delicious. My favorite was the bulgogi because it was tender and flavorful. I also enjoyed the spicy rice cakes, but I wish they gave a bigger portion of it.. The chicken was okay, but not something I'd order again. The spicy sauce was drenched all over the chicken and was very spicy. The regular crispy chicken didn't have enough salt for me and was overcooked.

I love the BBQ chicken, meat jun, kalbi, soondubu, and especially the spicy ahi. There's such a good variety of proteins to choose from, so you'll definitely leave happy and full. If you love masago, I highly recommend getting the spicy ahi. It's one of my favorites here! The restaurant itself is pretty small, intimate, and dark, but it's perfect for a quick and casual meal. The portions and prices are also a really good value. Definitely one of those reliable spots I keep coming back to!

This was an upgrade to hotpot! The additional Yakiniku AYCE…read moremenu price was only about +$5 more to the AYCE hotpot price and it was definitely worth it! The food was very fresh. The way the vegetables, cold food, desserts, meat, sauces, and other food items that were given to us or placed at the food bar were very clean and tidy. I was sad that the Ward location closed because that was where I would often go, but coming here was a very great experience. Dinning service was very fast, yet friendly and attentive. The only thing that would stop me from coming here is the parking. Though it's only $2 with validation, the parking structure is too small and tight. If you have a car that can't drive up a steep hill/ramp or a large truck..., you will want to park somewhere on the street instead. Overall, this restaurant is a great restaurant with great food and spacious interior! Very satisfied with my visit regardless of the parking situation.

Decent amount of options, very similar menu to the location that was in ward, EXCEPT the veggies/starches were in an area with the sauces up for grabs instead of order. One thing I thought was interesting was that even though they didn't have spinach (like most hot pot places), they had ong choy, which I can't say I've seen at any other place. The place was about 70% full when we got there (had a reservation for 6pm). By 6:30pm the place was pretty full. Very casual. Service was okay... we asked for chili peppers since they didn't offer it at the sauce bar, and it took about 5 times of asking and them saying okay and disappearing to get them ONCE. And then I asked for some more since it was a very small amount for a table of 5. Then had to wait another 5 min to ask someone ELSE, and finally got it after ANOTHER 5 min. We asked about 4 different servers about 7 times total, and got the peppers twice. Oh and on our first round I had marked 8 on quail eggs, and they had the "(2)" meaning each order would contain 2 pieces. I received 8 total. Whereas each order of fish balls/meatballs/etc. that also had "(2)", came with 2/order. I love quail eggs so that was definitely a bummer as I had to wait to order the second round for everyone to know what they'd want to put in the next order. It's nice that you can add on k bbq for $5! We opted for just the hotpot. There's also a small desert bar.

We went in hoping to order a bunch of stuff, unfortunately, the lunch menu is more limited than the dinner menu. No matter, this was a blessing in disguise We ordered the deluxe teishoku set and the premium trio bowl. We initially wanted to get the uni/ikura bowl (dinner menu only) so we ordered a separate uni sashimi since the deluxe teishoku set came with an ikura bowl. This was definitely a splurge. The deluxe teishoku set is one of the best deals I think you can get for the price and quality. It gives you a little taste of everything and the quality was superb. Definitely would come back for lunch and dinner!

Ishiyaki Bibimbap was so delicious, much much better than anywhere else, the best in Hawaii. Yakiniku meats were so fresh and tendered. We are so lucky we live close by. I want to try lunch menu too. Their recommendation " Omelet " I saw in IG. There are daily lunch specials available. And Happy Hour drinks serve during weekdays. We will be back very soon. Thank you so much.

I called again to say I needed 2 orders of the tonkatsu lunch special for takeout and there was a bit of confusion and he hung up again... I went after about 20min to go pick up the order. Confirmed my order was for 2 tonkatsu specials and paid. Then had to wait another 20 minutes to get it. I guess the phone order didn't do much besides give them a head's up that I was coming? When I got it, I was a little underwhelmed. The middle part of the katsu wasn't golden brown, so it could have been cooked a little more evenly. The katsu was quite good tho. Juicy and the panko on the outside was good. Good amount of rice and the kimchi tasted really good. I would try another lunch special again if I'm craving some Japanese food if I have the time to wait for the food. 3/5 for communication. 4.5/5 for food Limited street parking in the area.

The space itself is small so if you don't want to wait for up to two hours to sit for a walk in meal, you definitely should call for a reservation. Unlike other kbbq spots, this one is absolutely no frills and the meats come out quick and flying. If you're a small party, the aunties will definitely squish you next to other groups so it's a fun way to eavesdrop AHEM make friends with other diners at shared tables. Definitely look at the menu before you sit because they'll want to take your order immediately to get people in and out. The restaurant is BYOB, and some of the banchan are ala carte, but you do get your basics and rice included, which is really all you need! Parking at the Samsung plaza is pretty terrible so if you can walk or manage street parking, i believe it's more affordable than paying in the lot, which is enforced 24-7
