★★★★☆ 4.0 Victoria Lopez · Dec 2025

Bon Galbi was a great experience and a wonderful date spot. We ordered the seafood jeon and the gyoza to start. For the BBQ, we chose the prime ribeye and the pork belly. The quality of the meat was excellent, and the portion sizes were generous. It was more than enough food for two people, and we ended up taking a box home. I ordered an Asahi, and he had a Coca-Cola. They also offer soju on the menu if you want something more traditional with Korean BBQ. The atmosphere was comfortable and felt like a genuine Korean BBQ experience. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. They explained the cooking process, checked in at the right moments, and made sure we had everything we needed. They also brought gochujang to the table when we asked, which was appreciated! At the end of

We were excited to have Korean BBQ in the RGV. Bob Galbi did not disappoint. We had goyoza, jabche with beef, BBQ chicken (made extra spicy), yukgaejang soup and fried rice. Our main entrees were marinated beef short ribs and ribeye (brought to the table as a 1/2 thick slice of steak). Hot coals were brought to the grill to begin the cooking process. The sides...let me tell you about the sides-they are delicious! Kimchi cucumbers, kimchi, a delicious salad, fried tofu...I could go on and on but I really didn't know what everything else was called . It was all delicious! Everything is fresh and served very nearly-just look at the picture. We came here on a Sunday and it was very quiet. The building doesn't look like much, but it's clean. It can be pricey as the lunch specials are not availa

Second time eating here and it was delicious! We got the lunch special and I got full halfway through. The portions are good and the SEASONING IS THE BEST! They also gave us Sikhye at the end and it was good:) We will keep coming back <3

We’ve been coming to Bon Galbi for some time now, and we absolutely love it. The food is always delicious, the service is excellent, and the owner is such a kind and welcoming lady. She always comes out to greet us and genuinely makes us feel cared for. She remembers that our baby loves certain banchan and always brings out extra without us even asking, which means so much to us. The food is incredibly flavorful, fresh, and truly authentic. Every visit feels less like going to a restaurant and more like visiting a good friend. Bon Galbi is a special place, and we always look forward to coming back.

Warm and welcoming staff. Engage in good conversation and are attentive. I tried everything from appetizers, side dishes, entres and soups. EVERYTHING was delicious. Even the white rice! Definitely got a better experience than what we paid for. This quickly became our families new favorite spot. Highly recommend
