Such a good deal for 2 people! We tried the 솥뚜껑 삼겹살 (pot lid pork belly) for $79.99 and it was so good. It comes with 묵은지 (aged kimchi), bean sprouts, and veggies that you grill together with the pork belly. The kimchi and bean sprouts cooked in the pork fat were honestly the best part The portion was plenty for two of us and we left super full. Definitely recommend if you're craving authentic Korean-style samgyeopsal in Hawaii! read more

Great service, great food, music at good volume, able to have good conversation and enjoy. would come again!

very yummy late night spot and I got the bibimbap it was a good portion to get me fulll plus some leftovers for home

Our first time here! I gotta admit, the prices were a little daunting at first. If you truly wanna get a good bang for your buck, I highly recommend the Wagyu combo ($189.00), it comes with a tastefully sour and spicy kimchi jiggae, fluffy and savory steamed egg, fatty brisket, THE JUICIEST STEAKS AND WAGYU!!!, and I kid you not... FALL OFF THE BONE kalbi. The seafood pancake was JAM PACKED with the biiiiiiggest pieces of squid and octopus I've seen anyone else put in! If I had a bigger stomach I'd try the potato one too. Ambiance was loud as it's very very traditional Korean style kbbq. But the AC keeps everything cool and keeps the smoke from filling the room. The service was as if I was at home and my mom's cooking for me. They were so sweet and kind to help us get meats started and promptly helped cleaned as they went. read more

I rarely leave negative reviews, but our experience here was genuinely awful and uncomfortable. 0 stars if anything. My boyfriend and I were the only non-Korean customers in the restaurant during our visit, and the difference in the service we received compared with the Korean customers around us was extremely noticeable. I cannot speak to anyone's intentions, but I can speak to how we were treated, and the disparity was enough that both of us noticed it. A group of Korean men arrived AFTER us and received attention almost immediately. They weren't even completely seated yet. Meanwhile, we were repeatedly left unattended. The only employee who genuinely checked on us was the worker with the sleeve tattoos, who offered to refill our water. I appreciate him for actually acknowledging us. For the prices this restaurant charges, the experience was ridiculous. A small plate of brisket and a small plate of pork belly brought our bill to almost $90. You could honestly buy better quality meat from a local Asian market for a fraction of the price. One of the women working our table greased the grill, threw our brisket on, and immediately went back to serving another Korean table. She remained with them while our grill was left on too high, and our expensive brisket BURNED. Nobody came back to check on it. Later, the grill had burned markings while I was cooking squash. They replaced the pan, took my squash with the old pan, and never brought my food back. She replaced the pan, and then returned to the other table. We put the pork belly on ourselves, but we don't mind doing it at all. After that family finally left, the same employee came back to our table and flipped the pork belly before it was ready. It stuck, ripped apart, and left a mess all over the grill. Again, this is expensive meat. We couldn't even finish the meal. The food did not sit well with me, so we asked for a to go container and decided to leave. We normally tip very well when we eat out, but my boyfriend understandably did not leave a tip after the service we received. What really sealed the experience was the employee asking, "Tip on table?" after he paid. When he said no, she said something in Korean to the other employees, after which they looked over at us. We walked out feeling extremely uncomfortable and watched. A tip is optional and is supposed to reflect the service received. Asking us directly where the tip was after largely ignoring our table, burning our food, losing part of our food while changing the grill, and providing noticeably more attentive service to surrounding tables was incredibly inappropriate. Almost $90 for two small plates of mediocre meat and service that made us feel unwelcome is unacceptable. Whether the disparity in treatment was intentional or not, it was noticeable enough to completely ruin the experience for us. We will not be returning. read more

We had the prime combo and the meat was very tender and great quality. The banchan was really good. Fresh and authentic. Will definitely be back. read more

We walked in without reservations at about 5 pm on a Saturday. It wasn't too busy and we were seated right away. The staff were friendly, efficient and came and went frequently. After we ordered, they were nice enough to relocate us to a bigger table, due to the big back order we placed. We came in feening for intestines after not having anything of this style on island, like we've had in Los Angeles or Korea. We also got a side order of pork jowl, mandoo and yukhoe (Korean beef tartare) and honestly, it was too much food. Ajumma cooked all the intestines for us, and towards the end you can choose to do fried rice or noodles. We saved some of the intestines and pork jowl to mix it into the fried rice. Both of these hit. Max joy. The only let down was the yukhoe (Korean beef tartare). It was still partially frozen, which is fine, but it just lacked seasoning. The main attraction is the intestines so this is an easy pass Overall, would definitely come back for the intestines and definitely late night with soju. read more

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

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

This place is legit good! They give generous serving of everything down to the ban Chan! Crazy pricey for everything tho. $30plus for each meat entree and the sides for for an average of $14. The old saying goes you get what you pay for and the quality of the meets were good and the chef did a great job of preparing the food. Even the seafood pancake was excellent chock full of squid and Korean green onion as well as red peppers. There was a surprise jalapeño peppers in there so beware. We rolled up at about 5pm on a Friday but the parking can be tight cuz it's located right next to a strip club and you have to share the parking with their customers. Nevertheless. This place was CLEAN and no crazy Smokey air or greasy floors. The food came out quick and the service was super friendly! 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

Tried with the new management. Great food and wonderful customer service! Love the tofu soup and bibimbap!

Service is above and phenomenal here!! I love how they cut the meats for you, and they even grill the fried rice for you. I like how the meats come pre-70% cooked before they bring it out to grill in front of you. The banchan is very good and the fried rice at the end is amazing!! Water is filtered, which I love. They have parking in the front and the back. There are a lot of tables and this is good for a late night spot to eat vibe. This tastes very authentic Korean. In addition, the workers speak Korean and English. The ice cream is very tasty as well. read more

A perfect late night spot...located across the street from 24 hour fitness and in front of Femnu on Kapiolani blvd. We called in ahead of time and they were able to accommodate our party of 10 and we arrived at 10:30pm. We were greeted warmly and immediately received water for the table. Drink orders were put in right away as we perused the menu. A really good friend of mine is an expert orderer and I'm glad we went with her picks. My favorite part of Korean BBq is the banchan. We were practically fighting over the kimchi it was that good. The rest of the banchan was just as delicious, fresh, and authentically prepared. Let's talk about the pancake most people would go with the kimchi pancake but we tried the crispy, cheesy potato pancake dipped in the sauce provided and it's golden. The yakiniku meat selection was excellent. Every cut we tried was tender and full of flavor. You could really taste the quality. Moving on to the pork soup this is a must try that's all I'll say. The place is clean and nicely lit, I love a place that's jumping and seems like everyone is happy enjoying their meal. I look forward to trying more on the menu. read more

As a half Korean that eats better than a full Korean, this is my new go to spot for Korean bbq, especially when it comes to samgyeopsal (pork belly). It's cooked on a lid so all the fat drippings make their way onto the bean sprouts, kimchi and other vegetables. It reminds me of Korea. You'll just have to check it out for yourself. read more

I think this is the only goochang spot I know in Hawaii. While it's not quite on par with the likes on the mainland, this was a welcome hug for me. Got the Medium combo for $90 with large intestine, small intestine, and tripe. It was pretty good - definitely recommend asking for sesame oil and salt on the side. The egg was AMAZING! Service was standard and fast. The inside is nice and ACed and didn't smell too much with good HVAC. 5/5! read more
