    Green onion salad and a set
    Catherine W.

    This Million Restaurant is the one at Kapiolani and Ward, not the one on Sheridan. The restaurant is spacious and got plenty of parking outside. The food was good especially the meat. You could tell they don't serve cheap meat. I have dined here 3 times in the last 2 years and the quality has been very consistent. Service was also good. The only complaint is food was quite pricey but it is worth it for the quality of the food.

    Banchan and meats (small intestine, kalbi, pork belly)

    Our Honolulu friends always bring visitors to Million, and I've known about it for a long time. We prefer their Kapiolani location. Staff treat you like family - many of the servers know and recognize our friends and check in on us. We made a reservation for 4 adults/one child on a Monday at 5pm (and stayed until 9!). Our favorites were the kurobuta pork, kalbi, and small intestine (our friend tried her first time and love it). Their bulgogi has to be cooked in the kitchen, not DIY. Their call button is super handy if you need help or top-offs. We loved the banchan and salad paired with all the grilled meats. We also got many rounds of beers and their soju cocktail pitcher (delicious). Nice to have our own small room with A/C. A bit hard to hear, but very comfortable. Parking is ample in their lot, and there were decent crowds throughout the night. For 4 people (including many drinks), the total came out to around $90 per person.

    Great Korean restaurant that opens late and provides good service. Food is ono and banchans were yummy. Perfect place to go to for a quick bite with the family

    Million Korean Restaurant - Delicious Food & Thoughtful Service We had a great experience at Million Korean Restaurant on Kapiolani. The food was flavorful, the meat quality was solid, and the service was especially thoughtful--especially for families with young kids. What We Ordered: - Japchae Noodles - Kimchi Jun - Rice with Vegetables & Beef in a Hot Stone Bowl - Million Set S1 - includes beef outside skirt, wagyu brisket, beef tongue, and shrimp (all raw, cooked at the table grill) Everything was very good. The meat from the Million Set was fresh and grilled up beautifully at our table. The hot stone bowl was a standout--the rice crisps up nicely if you let it sit, and you can even request the bowl extra hot if you love that crispy texture. Kid-Friendly Touches: They were incredibly accommodating to our 3-year-old daughter. They had a high chair ready, and even brought out a seaweed tofu soup special just for her, along with her own bowl, spoon, and fork. She loved it! It made the whole dining experience so much easier and more enjoyable. Extras: White rice came included with our dishes, which was a nice touch. Final Thoughts: We'll definitely be coming back. The food was delicious, and the staff went out of their way to make our daughter feel welcome. That kind of care makes a big difference when dining out as a family.

    Met some family friends here for lunch on a Sunday. They had a Lunch Special Menu. Our waitress was friendly. There was lots of tables available. The place was clean and quiet. I had the Meat Jun and Kalbi Special. You can also cook your own food. I think I would try that next time or recommend that.

    Parking: there's a front and back parking lot. The back lot is tandem parking. Limited amount of stalls. Service: The restaurant was fairly empty when we arrived and was seating quickly. Our food came out quickly. Mid way through our lunch the restaurant got crowded and we had to wait a long time for the check. Food: The food was delicious! I've been here several times and it never disappoints. The tofu soup was order as a "regular" spicy level and wasn't too spicy. You can order it spicy if you want to. The restaurant is clean, can get smoky if you are cooking on the grill.

    Multigrain Rice
    Kris G.

    I've been seeing posts for their lunch specials so wanted to try it out since it's close to home. The multigrain lunch sets are about $30 but it's a complete meal with entree, soup and the multigrain rice pot so it makes sense. I got the Spicy Pork with Soft Tofu. Spicy Pork and Multigrain rice was good! The spicy pork was cooked perfectly and surprisingly not as oily. Rice was good and was easy scape off with the tea afterwards. The soft tofu was good, but it was really spicy. Like I can handle the spice, but the spice was overpowering for me to actually enjoy it but if you're into that then this soup is for you. I was a little disappointed with the banchan options but I noticed form other photos that it varies on the day - I'd still eat it regardless though. Note on the top of the menu said limit set to one person, but I think if you're not heavy eaters, it would be enough to share plus an extra side. I was only able to eat half. But if you have a big appetite, I would get your own. Service was fast and nice - def recommend and would come back.

    Spicy pork, meatjun and BBQ kalbi
    Jeremy G.

    My Fiance and I ate here the other day after always just getting take out and wanted to actually eat inside. The food was amazing, the restaurant was clean and the staff were great. Overall our experience was fantastic and we will definitely be going back! We ordered the spicy pork and the Meatjun and BBQ Kalbi plate , the spicy pork was sizzling hot when it came out and it was perfectly caramelized with the onions it was served with, the kalbi was nice and juicy and super flavorful which paired well with the MeatJun. Usually you can tell how great a Korean bbq place is by their banchan and Million did not disappoint, it was amazing and the server was always checking to make sure we had enough. The staff were great and attentive to everything we needed! They kept our waters filled and our banchan coming, and would always check on us to see if we needed anything else. From the few times we ordered take out from here the front worker was always very polite and nice too. You can tell they really take pride in the restaurant by how clean and presentable it is as well. We will definitely be coming back again, especially since we live so close. It's great having a KBBQ place so close to us, next time we are gonna have to try the actual grill. If i were to change anything I'd say maybe the pricing, we did get a lot of food but it was still a little expensive. But that won't keep us away! Thank you million!! (Also there is plenty parking so it's great if you need to drive!!!)

    FOOD/PRICE -- This place serves both Korean BBQ that you grill on your table and food that is cooked for you. KBBQ menu is pricier than other KBBQ spots in the area. You either order ala carte by the meats or order a set that is $74.99+. We ordered the Million Set S4 ($79.99), which includes non-marinated kalbi, outside skirt, wagyu brisket. The meats have superior quality, compared to other Korean BBQ spots, but they are EXPENSIVE and that the portions are small for a party of two. We were satisfied with the portions by the end of the meal, but we were not full. SERVICE -- Workers are friendly and efficient. Attended to our needs every time we search for them. AMBIANCE -- This place is SIGNIFICANTLY less smoky than other Korean BBQ places. It is also brightly lit inside. Decent place to have meals for special occasions. PARKING -- Many parking spots in the location.

    We recently dined at Million Restaurant on Kapiolani Blvd, overall, it was a decent experience and it's these restaurants that I wish I could give a 3.5 star rating since it was just short of a 4 star for us. We ordered the Million Set 2 ($74.99), which is designed to feed two people. The set included four different cuts of meat, including Wagyu Brisket, and came with six delicious banchan side dishes. The banchan were definitely a highlight--fresh, flavorful, and a nice complement to the meats. The restaurant itself is large, well-lit, and can easily accommodate both large and small groups, which is great for gatherings. Service was a standout aspect of our visit. The staff was very attentive, frequently checking in and making sure that we had everything we needed. Their friendliness and promptness really elevated the experience. However, the main drawback for us was the quality of the meat. While the selection was decent, the cuts themselves were average and didn't stand out as anything particularly special. It was the the lowest price point so far in our K BBQ adventure but from a flavor and tenderness perspective I felt we've gotten better at other locations. In summary, Million Restaurant has a lot going for it--excellent service, a spacious and comfortable atmosphere, and tasty banchan. But for us, the star of a Korean BBQ meal should be the meat, and unfortunately, it fell just short in comparison. For the price though I think it's well worth the visit! Side note, each grill had a vent above it but I don't think any of them were on..at least it didn't appear to be. We did leave with a distinct aroma of K BBQ on our clothes and hair but that's not a bad thing sometimes.

My brother and I ordered the prix fixe (prime beef 9 course meal), and some parts of it got me confused as the cost is per person but there were certain selections (such as choosing between corn cheese and steamed egg) that you only get to choose one for the TABLE instead of per PERSON. It was unfortunately not indicated on the menu. The meat quality was good, and some of the banchans were great (kimchi and potato salad). I also liked their corn cheese as it helped balance the flavor of the meats. However, for the price of $77 per person, I am not certain if the experience was worth the price tag. Maybe next time I'll try their Lunch Specials as it may have better value for money.

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.
