    I am never disappointed with Yummys! This location specifically. It is on the 2nd floor of the Navy exchange surrounded by other spots at this food court. This Yummy's portion size is amazing which I am grateful for! We usually order the bbq chicken and then the bbq beef palate for a family of 4. If you say no rice, you could pick extra veggies which is a great deal. I love how the meals are nutritious and tasty. Service is always speedy and although they're not super friendly at this location, they are efficient. Cost is about $45 to feed a family of 4 and had left overs for lunch the next day! Great deal if you're looking for a nutritious meal to feed the family!

    This is how it arrived-a bag of soup (pic #1). It gets packaged in a paper bowl and then tied in a plastic bag, which only makes it soggy and fall apart. Guy I spoke to at the restaurant said he would double the soup order when I can come pick it up. Pretty bummed because I was treating my boss to lunch and this was her food. The next day we decided to give them a chance to get it right, so I called ahead to let them know I was coming today and gave them our vegetable choices. They got me lookin really dumb because I never check the order when I picked it up. They managed to mess up my boss's order AGAIN. The pic shows that there was rice in the container but it was removed....???! (Pic #2). All their plates automatically come with rice, so I'm at a loss how this could have happened. We're waiting for the manager to return our call.

    The Yummy's NEX food court has the same menu as the other outlets as well. They have a the selection of the many choices to choose from. Choices of four side dishes to choose from: kimchi, bean sprouts, greens, tofu, marinated shoyu potatoes, potatoes marinade with mayonnaise, macaroni salad, etc are all well made. Regular plate are 4 choices and mini plate are two choices. It's a great choice of eats they have

    This particular Yummy Korean B-B-Q is located on the second floor of the Navy Exchange. There is a good sized food court here. I took my Dad out for Veteran's Day. He loves Korean BBQ. My Dad looked at the menu and he immediately asked for the spicy pork plate. You pick four sides with the plate lunch. He picked Choy sum, mayo-shoyu potatoes, kim chee and chop chae (glass noodles). The plate comes with white rice as well. Look at the pictures and you will see just how big this plate is! I'm not sure if my Dad was lucky today as this plate is the biggest amount I have ever seen! We have been to other Yummy locations. He enjoyed the spicy and savory pork. Depending on the piece, the pork was chewy and tender lol. Very tasty and the side dishes are freshly made and delicious. Service was great here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tables and chairs are located throughout the food court. Employees cleans the area well here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Restrooms are available nearby. This is a good place for those using wheelchairs. Elevators are also available. Prices are reasonable for today's times. No complaints here. Iced water was also provided to us. This plate made two meals for my Dad. I even shared some of the meal. You do not need to show a military identification card to make a purchase in the food court.

    Meat jun bbq beef combo

    There are two Yummy BBQs in the NEX area. One is in Moanalua Shopping Center, and this one is inside the NEX foodcourt. Since we had to drop off something at UPS, my friend and I decided to try here. Meat Jun BBQ Beef combo - 4 stars - for $20.49, same price as the one in Moanalua SC, they give a lot more, They also have a spicy udon pan chan which no other Yummy's I've tried, to choose from among the regular ones. The Meat Jun was delicious, but the BBQ Beef was really salty, so it was hard to eat, thus the 4 stars. Service was average coming from a food court. Lots of parking since it is at the NEX. If I feel like eating at Yummy's while I'm in the area, I'll try here again.

    Been off Island since 2012 and visited some of our old haunts- NEX & Yummy BBQ for lunch was one of them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Open seating foof-court with plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Cashier was nice, smiled at my jokes (got a 3 1/2 to a 4). Been craving fish Jun & mac island style for a long long time. Yummy was okay, not the best, but okay. Price for what you get is okay. Wife liked her soup, so overall okay. Definitely way better on island (I hope), only been back one day.

    Yummy KBBQ never misses! This place is our go-to spot for a reason--consistently delicious food, generous portions, and service that's always friendly and on point. They always plate the food to-go beautifully, which makes it super easy to enjoy top-notch Korean BBQ wherever we are. Whether we're dining in or taking it home, everything is fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. The location is super convenient, which makes it dangerously easy to keep coming back (and we do). If you're craving quality KBBQ with great service and solid portions, Yummy KBBQ is the move.

    Why is it that after shopping it feels so tiring and sometimes hungry! We were are NEX shopping and I need to feed my stomach who by the way is hungry most of the time. Lol, so here I am had to grab quick eats! Mini Beef - came with a scoop of white rice, beef and a sides of cabbage & bean sprout. Beef is so tasty and seasoned well. Not even tough just cooked right. The sides are not overcooked and they got a good crunch on every bite. It was a delighted meal and my tummy is definitely the happiest. I paired it with itoen green tea which I kinda don't like coz it's way too bland. Lol. Service is good and the cashier is nice and patience towards me. They are located inside NEX foodcourt pretty spacious and plenty chairs/tables to dine in. I will surely love to come back here. Mahalo for reading & happy juandering fellow yeeps!

    They do not pay attention to their online orders! See attached image or order for combo Kalbi with mandoo, seaweed, edamame, shoyu potatoes, fired potato salad, and spicy udon noodles. Then see image of order (no kalbi and spinach instead of edamame). I did return and they gave me the Colby but didn't even recheck the order. I guess I need to be careful to make sure my order is correct if I order online from this location.

So many of the Korean restaurants in Honolulu have servers who are actually mean to the customers and we now refuse to give them our dining dollars. The more modern Korean restaurants are providing much better customer experiences so that a customer becomes a life-long customer who spreads the word to family and friends and who keeps coming back for life. Does anyone remember the "Angry Korean Auntie" who used to run her restaurant like Seinfeld's "Soup Nazi'? That is the kind of service that we try to avoid now regardless of food quality. The atmosphere here is elegant and welcoming and the food is excellent and the ban chans served here are better than any other Korean restaurant in Honolulu. We enjoy coming here and never smell like BBQ when we leave, LOL, due to efficient fans and AC's. Their marinated Kalbi is some of the best I have every had, way better than any LA Kalbi and we recommend it. All the soups are good and generous.

We went with the Prix Fixe Menu of the 9 courses, for $70 per person. First we were given the banchans. They have A LOT and I love banchans so it was a great start to the meal. I wonder if you could get refills on the banchans like many other KBBQ spots... I didn't get the chance to find out as I was STUFFED by the end of my meal. The steamed egg also came fairly fast, they offered to serve it for us which we took up on that offer. Then we also received the kimchi pancake. Here is what I'd note, I am a bit confused on the portion sizes. As the prix fixe menu is per person, shouldn't the dishes and servings per person? Like why would the kimchi pancake be one and shared between two? As well as the egg? We then got all of the various cuts of the meats. Everything was good and quite enjoyable. We also had a choice between soup (soybean or tofu) and cold noodles (reg or spicy). We both chose the spicy cold noodles. It was very good and a refreshing side to pair with the KBBQ. We were honestly stuffed by the end of our meal and enjoyed it all. Despite my slight concern/confusion regarding the serving/pricing, I would possibly come back. Although I usually go for an AYCE kbbq spot as it is definitely more worth it value wise.

The chicken was okay, but not something I'd order again. The spicy sauce was drenched all over the chicken and was very spicy.

    We are extremely disappointed with our recent experience…read more We've been loyal customers and typically eat here twice a week whenever we're on assignment on the island in the last five years. We have also left two previous positive reviews because we've genuinely enjoyed the food and wanted to support this small business. Earlier this week, we ordered the bulgogi for our kids, but the meat was too chewy and tough making it inedible. Wanting to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt, we ordered the bulgogi again the following day and even requested it be cooked well done. Unfortunately, it had the same too chewy and tough texture, and again, could not be eaten. After feeding the kids something else, bathing them, and putting them to bed, I called the restaurant around 10:00 p.m., but they had already closed. I called the next day, and the owner (a lady with glasses) returned my call. Instead of listening to my concerns, she repeatedly interrupted me and spoke in a passive-aggressive, dismissive manner. I was on speakerphone with four other adults in the car, and everyone commented on how unhelpful and condescending the conversation felt. I explained that I wasn't calling simply to complain - I wanted to share feedback because we genuinely care about the restaurant and have supported it for a long time. I even mentioned that I had previously provided constructive feedback about the takeout bowls, which the restaurant later improved. Before I could finish, she cut me off and said, "We're not talking about the to-go bowls right now, are we? We're talking about your bulgogi." She insisted that if I wanted a refund, I needed to return to the restaurant in person, and that if something was wrong in the future, I should come back immediately so they could remake it. Unfortunately, that's simply not realistic for us. We're staying in a hotel with two young children, and the restaurant is about 40 minutes away. By the time we discovered the problem, got the kids settled, and called, making another round trip would have meant roughly 80 minutes of additional driving with tired, hungry children. I understand that mistakes happen, and I wasn't expecting perfection. What disappointed me most was how the concern was handled. This business does not value customer feedback and will never first listen respectfully, even from repeat customers who have consistently supported and recommended them. Sadly, based on this experience with both the food quality and the customer service, we won't be returning.
