A flavorful journey with room for service improvement. The BBQ meat at Ong Ga Nae was undeniably great, offering a satisfying and authentic Korean culinary experience. The flavors and grilling experience were top-notch. However, the service left something to be desired. With just two waiters handling multiple tables, it was clear they were stretched thin. They had to juggle taking orders and assisting with the BBQ, which resulted in occasional delays and challenges in getting their attention. To enhance the overall dining experience, it would greatly benefit the restaurant to have additional staff members to provide efficient and attentive service.

The premium combo is superb! It includes out side skirt, ribeye cap, mega galbi and seng bulgogi 1/2 —— the meat is so tender and flavorful, though the portion is a bit too much for 2 ppl so we ended up taking some leftovers back home. Service is great too. The tiny plaza offered valet parking.

This place used to be good but not anymore. Under the new ownership/management, there has been a significant changes. They reduce the number of side dishes that usually comes with Korean cuisines. And then the quality of beef/pork they offer has drastically decreased from the last time I was there. Remember I went here hungry. And today also they ran out of one of the side dishes that I always enjoyed. ironically today they dropped an empty dish on a soup bowl creating a splash to everyone face on the table.

Came here to try their famous bulgogi, the portion was HUGE, and the four of us were so stuffed. We got the bulgolgi, bibimbap, and kimchi jigae. The flavors for all the dishes didn’t really stand out for me. The bulgolgi was an interesting experience for sure—I like that underneath that mountain of meat they do include veggies such as spinach and mushrooms. I thought the flavors were generally pretty mild, and would have liked a better spread of banchan side dishes (there wasn’t any kimchi…).

Have you been to this restaurant yet? I can confidently recommend that the quality of the meat here is the best in LA. The side dishes served separately here are also delicious. It is also run by the owners of LA’s very famous ‘Yanmani’. These two top food spots in LA are a must-visit.

Best KBBQ so far in town nowadays KBBQ is a bit spicy and a bit hard to find a good one at fair price. Ong GA Nae has not only good quality meat but also friendly service and fair price deal. This is the restaurant that you wanna check out whenever you are in Ktown.

Went here on a Saturday night with my coworkers. Parking can be difficult so I suggest that you use the valet service. Food was excellent, we ordered the seng bulgogi (my first time having the beef cooked this way and it was delicious), Korean pancake and Korean pasta with squid(?). All of their banchan tasted good. Service was good. Will definitely come back for more.

We came here because we were in LA and had been to the Rowland heights location multiple times. Definitely more of a kbbq vibe instead of a traditional Korean restaurant vibe and a slightly different menu. However the signature dish remained the same.
