Moon Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

The portions of food are gigantic!! Party of 6 n we shared everything n were full. Our server (Yeji) was AMAZING!! Prices are a little higher but for the amount n the quality reflect it, its so worth it frfr! read more

Food great, service great, chill ambiance. 10/10 will come again. No complaints. I left happy and full

Right next to Femme Nu. Few parking stalls right in front of the restaurant. Menu is a little pricey but the portion sizes were decent. 2 meat portions were enough for me and another person. They do give side vegetables. Quality of the meat was excellent. You can tell you're getting what you're paying for. Service was excellent. Staff helps cook and serve in the beginning. The restaurant wasn't too smoky. I didn't feel like I smelled like the restaurant coming out. Open late, which is a plus. I will be back! read more

Cons: The meat + naengmyun noodle sets are only during lunch time, so prices are increased cuz they charge separately at dinner time. No explanation when asked why they didn't say that on the menu. Water is served in paper cups. Constantly swatting fruit flies throughout the meal. Kalbi was on the thinner side than what I'm used to. No one checked on us in the entire duration of the meal despite there not being many people in the restaurant. Pros: Banchan was tasty. Seasoning for Kalbi was good, also cooked really well. read more

Big let down. Big fan of kbbq and went to try since they opened down 10 min walk from where we live. And they "specialize" in gopchang. They did a new opening since the old kbbq, and the old tables and chairs remain with stained cushions, greasy tables, and it just felt like an old space inside and they just put in tables. Oh, we got an egg-crusted spoon. Still to this day, I don't get how they miss this. Service was subpar, the waiter would dab up his buddies then serve us, went to his buddies tables, etc. inconsistent. The female staff was great checking in and cutting our meat, etc as they normally do. As pictured, that's a $43 beef brisket, normally a cheap cut of meat for kbbqs. They stuck "prime" in there and there was nothing prime about this. Chewy and didn't taste at all fresh. Onions and other vegetables? Look like a neglected dried up vegetables in my fridge. They didn't cut the end of the onion off, so when I flipped it the other end was pointy (falling rose petal emoji) Big intestine has a funky taste, which when cleaned thoroughly it's not supposed to have. Inconsistent cook, and honestly exudes greed from this place. Checking off places to not visit in Oahu. So far the number one contender is the Hangang kbbq and it doesn't even come remotely close. You go to kbbq for good food, convenience, and vibes. I'd rather have kbbq at home than come here again. read more

Moon Korean BBQ is a late night KBBQ restaurant on Kapiolani Blvd, across from the 24Hr location. It was my first time going and I liked the lively atmosphere and quick service to get seated. Their signature Intestine special was unique and had rare cuts of meat like small and large intestines. We ordered their medium size, which comes with 3 choices of meat, assorted banchan, and an option at the end to do fried rice or chaphagetti noodles. It looks small, but because intestines are rich and fatty, the 3 of us couldn't finish it all. I would say 4 people would be the right amount for the intestine special! Overall, I thought the food was good. It can get pricey, expect about $40/person. A great late night option for KBBQ. read more

Lunch in Honolulu, Hawaii... Moon Korean BBQ is a hot new business! It's clean and modern inside with a private party room and convenient restroom. There are free parking stalls right outside the restaurant on Kapiolani Boulevard (near the Convention Center). Service was efficient and helpful. My friend wanted to order takeout for her sister, so the server came back and took the order later on the portable charge card machine. I got the Lunch Special Combo: LA Kalbi with cold noodles. Maybe I should have gotten bulgogi instead of kalbi because it had an oddly tart taste. The noodles were good and chewy! This was a good experience except for the loud music. The air conditioning was much appreciated! read more

Finally an authentic gopchang kbbq place in Hawaii!!! This place is legit, authentic Korean gopchang style, ambiance with excellent service. Food was absolutely delicious!! The steam egg was made perfectly and not too salty. My toddler really liked it. The kimchi was so delish we asked for a refill! We got the Medium size gopchang combo: Small intestine, large intestine, and tripe. Served with garlic, pineapples, enoki and king trumpet mushrooms, and thick slices of potatoes all prepared on the grill, you just wait for it to all cook and eat together. Next time, we are trying their other meats and stew dishes!! read more

Moon Korean BBQ - Kimchee fried rice with the leftover mix of the intestine plate. - Korean Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

The food was okay, and we came mainly for the grilled intestines. With three people, we ordered the medium combo, which was plenty for us. Unfortunately, the service was very pushy. The staff kept trying to get us to order more food and drinks, even after we had already ordered. When we accidentally ordered extra rice not realizing rice was included, we asked if it could be canceled. Instead of giving us a clear answer, they kept trying to get us to order something else. Overall, the food was decent, but the rude and aggressive service made the experience disappointing. read more

Moon Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

Stood and waited at a Korean BBQ chain (starts with G and ends in N, with a vowel in-between. The employees/servers simply looked at us and did nothing, so we decided to find another place. What a blessing to find this place! We were literally the only ones, but probably due to it being a non-meal time. The food was simply fabulous. The banchan was one of the best (and I should know, I'm Korean). The prime combo was absolutely perfect. We will be back! read more

Moon Korean BBQ - One of the best banchan out there! - Korean Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

First this place is right next to a nudie bar so keep that in mind if you come with children. We found this new place to be overpriced and the food mediocre at best. They advertise combo meals of meat and noodles but don't specify on the menu that is for lunch only till 3 pm. The prices are ridiculous for meat: $66 for soy marinated kalbi roll with TWO rolls only and NO flavor was disappointing!! The waitress also didn't get our order right and not very friendly. Using tiny plastic paper cups to pour your own water is cheaply. Also our soup was cold! There's no dipping sauce for your meat. Will not be returning... read more

Moon Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

Very disappointing experience. The food was average at best and definitely didn't justify the price. What bothered us most was the handling of the bill. An 18% gratuity had already been added, but this was never clearly pointed out. Instead, the staff presented the payment screen, we were led to believe that a tip still needed to be added. As a result, we unknowingly added another 18% tip on top of the automatic gratuity. Restaurants should clearly disclose when gratuity has already been included so customers can make informed decisions. Between the average food, poor service, and confusing billing practices, this is not a place I would recommend. On top of that, the service was nearly nonexistent. We rarely saw our server, had to flag people down when we needed assistance, and received very little attention throughout the meal. If you're going to automatically charge gratuity, the service should at least reflect it. read more

The food was very delicious, especially the LA kalbi. Most of the staff was very friendly except one staff member who was pushy. While finishing up our meal, our server, an older Korean woman, came up to our table and told us to hurry up and pay. This was very disappointing, as the food was very good and I was originally eager to come back in the near future. However, this experience has made me not want to come back again. Had it not been for the quality of the bbq meat, I would've given a 2 star rating due to the poor service. read more

Intestine combo was delicious! I ordered the small and large intestine, and tripe. Nice variety of veggies(garlic, onion, garlic and potatoes) paired with it. Quick service, asked for extra sauce and water, and they served it right away. We came during busy dinner time but everything wasn't loud or obnoxiously noisy, just chattering between families and good music playing. Can't wait to come again~ read more

Moon Korean BBQ - Ice cream rice puff - Korean Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

Great new KBBQ that has all the classics (beautiful meat assortments) but also specializes in massive soups (we had the pork bone) and gopchang which is intestines. Super flavorful assortment of dishes and probably the best cold noodles ever I've ever had. Get the crispy kim chi fried rice. Very friendly and helpful staff. An off shoot of a Las Vegas restaurant. read more

Sooo yummmmy in my tummmy! All the sides were really good. The meat was high quality.

Loved the new ambiance in this hidden Waikīkī gem. The KBBQ and sides were so yummy and service was excellent from our waitress Yejee

The gopchang was so delicious with no weird smell at all, and the service was amazing. We also ordered the gamjatang and the broth was super rich and flavorful. They even gave us a pajeon on the house, and it was crispy and really good too. So happy to find a Korean spot like this in Hawaii -- definitely coming back! read more

This place truly deserves 0 stars. I've never experienced such terrible customer service in my life with these servers. Mind you we reserved a table before going in. Got there were going to our table and they have the reserved plaque on the table for two, one table away from the restroom because the one right next to the restroom had nothing on it. Tell me why she sat us next to the bathroom we asked to move to the other table she told us no and we saw her grab the reserved plaque. We told her again we didn't wanna sit there she finally listened. We were finally ready to order and we call her over. She took down the one combo for two and steamed rice and just walked away. we weren't even done ordering. We get another server to take the rest of our order and shortly after we get our food. And this ain't our first time at a korean bbq so we know how to cook our own food, tell me why they kept coming over and just throwing the meat on the burner and cooking it for us? You look over and they're not doing it to nobody else. Being rude and just rushing us to get outta here by doing that. To cut our experience short , the food is honestly mid asf , the other customers will most likely stare at you and talk about you, and if you want terrible customer service, come here :D read more

The food was absolutely amazing. Everything came out in a very reasonable time. Our server, Yejee was so helpful. The pork kimchi hotpot was out of this world. The meat was really high quality. I will most definitely be coming back with all my friends. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Moon Korean BBQ - Proper Korean grilled large intestine! - Korean Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

Oh my goodness, seriously this was the best experience I've had so far with a dine in Korean BBQ experience. Everyone was so sweet and helpful. I came after a long, tiring day at work and my friend was in town visiting from Washington, and they put everything down for us, and cut up the food/vegetables that were cooking and it was just such a lovely way to wind down. We came around 11pm and the vibes were immaculate. The low light, the music in the background;everything. Everything was like a beautiful orchestra and everyone played their part to perfection. The music piece was the food and it was the most beautiful music piece I've heard in my life; similar to the likes of Mozart. Anyways, all to say, that I had a very pleasant experience and the intestine combo I had was superb. Will definitely be visiting again soon! This is a must check out! read more
