    Fantastic giant lunch deal every weekday from 12-3. Look at this galbi lunch box for $20! Even comes with banchan, a dumpling, rice, japchae. Delicious.

    Looking for an authentic feeling Korean BBQ? Miega's your spot!! We went for lunch on a rainy Saturday and ordered the Set 1, which includes Miega Set 1 - LA galbi, beef bulgogi, shrimp ($69.95). So much food, definitely could be for 3 people! The LA galbi was a bit tough, but the flavor was great! Lettuce wrapped the meat made me feel not as heavy, which is a great idea. Our server was so sweet and took care of us! Remember, the banchan (sides) are usually unlimited, so if you like a side, feel free to ask for more!

    Tuesday, 11 April 2023 -- At Miega Korean Restaurant
    Agnes I.

    I visited for the first time in April 2023 with a friend who had previously visited. We came for dinner and I remember that I was so hungry before arriving. FOOD -- In April 2023, I ordered the S9 on the menu which is the Bulgogi Dol Sot Bi Bim Bob. This is a Rice and Beef dish with Vegetables ($14.95). It had lots of good flavour because of the mixture of seasoned meat and vegetables. My friend and I shared the A1 on the menu which is the Gun Man Du (deep fried pork dumplings) -- $8.95 for 6 pieces. I don't eat pork often yet I enjoyed the dumplings because it was crispy and tasty. We dipped it into soy sauce. Our main course meal came with a bunch of side dishes (called banchan) that are meant to be shared. This is typical in Korean restaurants. All the 6 side dishes were served cold as they often are but this wasn't a problem because I ate them with my warm rice bowl. I enjoyed the side dishes. My favourites were the little potatoes and kimchi. I can definitely see myself returning back to try other food options on the menu. **** GOAL of 365 reviews in 2025 - 29/365 total reviews in 2025 - 810 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 16 January 2025

    Combo 2 with a meat swap to B1. La Gal Bi Short Ribs

    Still one of the best place in town for KBBQ. While it's on the pricier side, it's worth the splurge. This place is located on the second floor of the building, right next to the dance studio. Food is good and the service was decent for a 1 server. Food portion were very generous with free refills of banchan (side dishes) upon request. The table ordered the combo 2 meat set and requested to swap one of the meat to LA Galbi. We also didn't mind the extra charge for the change. Server was very friendly and helpful. He even made recommendations to pair some of the meat with certain banchan for a more robust flavor. In terms of the deco, it doesn't really change even after 7-8 years.

    Miega is one of the best Korean bbqs in the US that we have tried. You are hit with the smell of delicious grilled meat once you walk in, and it feels like you've been transported to Korea itself. Only half the restaurant is set for kbbq (so reservation is recommended). The other half are regular tables that serve their 'regular' entrees. We tried honey garlic wings to start and loved everything about them. Also the fact that they give you gloves to eat the wings is a plus. For the bbq, we tried LA Galbi, Pork belly (Sam gyeop sal), thin sliced spicy pork and beef boneless ribeye. You can tell that they serve high quality meat. LA galbi and ribeye were my favorite. Our server was exceptional. He cooked the meat for us and suggested the best way to enjoy each cut of meat. Their soft tofu soup and steamed egg go well with the bbq, along with the extensive banchan side dishes they provided. Beware that you will have that strong kbbq odor on your clothes afterwards though. Very impressed with our visit. Can't wait to go back

    I come here more often than I feel comfortable admitting but I promise the service, quality, quantity and taste are consistently superior. For sure my favorite place for KBBQ!

    It's upstairs at the Asia market. The Asia market has a food market on the lower floor and furniture strewn on the main floor as well. Doesn't open until after 12:30PM today. Will try back later. Some kimbap sounds good this morning.

    Great ginger tea drinki Also had the chicken very good too. Glad they took credit cards.

    This is a great place for Korean BBQ. The food was excellent. We had bulgogi, kalbi and another meat and there was plenty of meat for 5 people. Plus kimbap and tteokbeoki. Both were delicious. For dessert we also had the Miega and Mango bingsus which were such a wonderful treat at the end. The service was also fantastic. They were constantly checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed (enough water, sides, lettuce) and asked if we had any questions. Also our grill wasn't heating up all the way so they brought out another one. They were wondeful. Highly recommend!

    So I just went with my family to this restaurant this past weekend. I had to post a review because the service was HORRIBLE. The food was delicious however our waitress Christie was not attentive, professional or kind. We had to constantly ask for napkins and refill of the water jars. At one point, all of our meals came out except one person's food. He waited for nearly 30 minutes for his food and he was still eating when we were finished. We asked for the owner but was told that she's 70 years old and doesn't speak English. No one ever apologized for the food coming out late or even gave a reason why until asked. The reason given was that the "old woman" is slow and she cooked the food. This was so disturbing. So with that being said, we will not return again. Two stars given for the good only which was delicious.

    The ladies cooking are from Korea and the young man who served us could not have been more patient or wonderful. Difficult place to find .. second floor in what looks almost like a warehouse. Off 38th Street inside a fenced area and above a Korean market. Worth the search!!!

We ordered beers and as luck would have it, I was able to order their last available rack of ribs for the evening (my go-to barbecue item)! We also got some beef brisket and a few sides to share. Overall the meats were tasty, but there were a few issues with the meal. The ribs had a nice dry rub seasoning on them and were quite tender. The brisket also had a good bark, but was a tad dry. In terms of available sauces, the Kansas City sauce was thick and tangy, but the Proof sauce was not good at all...I just could not put my finger on what about it I didn't like n its flavor profile. The coleslaw was shredded with vinegar and quite dry, the mac-n-cheese was only semi-gooey and the fries (although tasty) were limp from being undercooked. Bottom line was thumbs up on the meats and thumbs sideways (or down) on the sides. Wil most certainly give them another try as I am a BBQ junky, hoping the outcomes are slightly better.

As of 430 they were turning people away due to being out of literally everything except some chicken. I understand not wanting to waste food but... if you're out of food by 30min past your opening time then you're doing something seriously wrong. My order is still not out. This is barbecue. It has been 1 hour and I am only one of three parties at tables. The waitress is incredibly nice but can't make up for ungodly slow service. When my food finally came out over an hour later, they literally brought 2 items out of maybe 10 I ordered. Everything else they were out of an hour after I ordered, 5 minutes after opening. HOW does this happen??? I didn't have to pay for my single ribeye and Mac and cheese which is the only somewhat not negative factor but I didn't get anything else I ordered either. Pretty beyond disappointed. I was incredibly calm and polite, even asking how I can prevent this in the future. Zero suggestions from waitress or manager who aggressively grabbed the receipt off the table and went elsewhere in tears. I gather somehow this was a really bad day for them? But I have no idea how I don't get screwed in the future either when I rsvp'd. Maybe I'll have to try to go by phone next time and ask if they're sure they have everything.
