Ahgassi Korean Barbecue

Came here for a friend's birthday dinner on a Saturday with a 6:30 reservation for 5 people. When you walk in, there is no hostess to greet you. So two of us walked upstairs thinking that's where the hostess was. That's when they told us to go back downstairs to check in. We were seated promptly, and everything came out quickly. We ordered the Seafood Pancake, Japchae, Sweet Corn Plate, Ahgassi Combo of Beef and Pork (brisket, pork belly, pork jowl, and marinated short rib). Everything was really good - I don't really have any complaints. They cook the meat for you, and change the grill often, ensuring that the meats don't become grisly. The banchan dishes were great too (especially the tofu). Though I feel like they could have been more attentive in re-filling them. It took us a while to

Great service here, wirh our reservation we was seated right away. Our server Niande was great in answering our questions and grilling our meats, he was very attentive with what our table needs were. Side dishes were great compliments to our meats. Intestines and tripe are unqiue bites to try. Their meat combos are worth the deal. Would definitely reccommend to friends and family and we'll be coming back in the future.

This Korean BBQ chain, which has expanded from Los Angeles to New York, is said to have been frequented by many Korean celebrities. It was definitely worth it; the flavor was unlike anything you find in Chinese Korean food. Brisket: The meat rolls looked beautiful, and after grilling, they had a very pure fatty aroma, but the texture tended to be a bit tough. It's best to ask the staff to grill them a little less. Served with raw onion salad, it not only cut through the richness but also enhanced the flavor. Pork Jowl: The best dish of the meal, and arguably the best pork jowls I've ever had, whether in Korean or Thai cuisine. American pork is often so gamey that even strong seasonings can't mask it, but this place's pork was surprisingly non-gamey! The cuts were slightly fattier than ty

Tried this bbq place (32nd Street) for the first time on a Friday night. We usually go to another Korean BBQ spot but wanted to try something new — this one’s very popular and I’ve heard the LA location is famous too. The wait was around 30–45 minutes (no reservation), so we just walked around until our table was ready. They seated us upstairs. The place has two floors and the setup feels a bit old-school, but it kind of adds to the charm. Service was friendly and fast, though we did feel a little rushed toward the end when we were just finishing our drinks. We ordered the beef set (three kinds of beef) and tteokbokki. The beef was good and filling, but the tteokbokki was just okay — big portion, but average taste. The cocktails, though, were a highlight! They have some with makgeolli an

They grilled everything for us and the service was incredibly prompt. They really take great care of their customers. The Korean grilled innards are usually hard to get right and authentic but theirs were perfect - tender, not overly chewy, and truly authentic. But recommend to book in advance!
