Hands down the best BBQ in town. The meat quality is incredible , tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. Every cut we ordered was fresh and juicy, and grilling it at the table made the whole experience even better.
The side dishes were fresh and constantly refilled, and I especially love their fish cakes, they’re so flavorful and honestly one of my favorite parts of the meal. Everything paired perfectly with the BBQ.

Been to this restaurant three times. It’s truly one of the best places to visit in the Baltimore area if you want authentic Korean cuisine. The staff are very friendly, welcoming, and helpful in helping you understand the menu and cook the BBQ items to perfection.
The place is managed and staffed by Koreans who obviously care to a high degree about the authenticity of the food they’re putting out. I’ve come here with Korean friends who had nothing but positive things to say, and for me personally, coming to this restaurant alone makes the long trip from Baltimore to Ellicott City worth it.
The quality of the meat they serve is exceptional, with every piece coming out juicy and tender from the grill. Their other options such as their cold noodles and tofu soup are also some of my personal favorites. This place has by far the best Korean food I’ve had in this area, and I 100% recommend it to anyone craving Korean cuisine.
The restaurant itself is spacious, clean, and well organized inside. There’s 2 floors to the restaurant, so typically they will have some tables or a short wait time, but I would recommend making a reservation for larger parties especially if it’s a busy day. The restaurant is popular so it does fill up quickly. There is plenty of parking available for those driving here.

The food at Chosun Hwaro is amazing! The BBQ meat is super flavorful, the seafood tofu soup is delicious, the Korean pancake is crispy, the stir-fried squid is tasty, and the bibimbap is so satisfying . The staff are fast, friendly, and very attentive . Definitely a great spot to enjoy authentic Korean flavors! ✨

We had the Chosun Hwaro Marinated Combo for $139. Menu states enough for 3-4 people, we were 2 people and it was just about enough. If we had 3-4 people it would not have been enough. Most of the meat was good some a little tough and gristly. Soju was great but they were out of the Snow Beauty Sake which was disappointing. Overall a good experience here. The negatives were that the waiter was
cooking everything so fast that it appeared like he was trying to rush us out of the place. If we return we would prefer to cook our own meat, we did not know this was an option until after our meal though.

I usually don’t write negative reviews, but this time I feel I have to.
ChoSun Hwaro has always been one of my partner’s and my favorite places. We’ve celebrated many special occasions here over the years, including holidays and anniversaries. Since today is Valentine’s Day, we decided to come back again, expecting the same great experience we’ve always had.
We came right when the restaurant opened, and there were only a few tables occupied. Unfortunately, the service we received was extremely disappointing.
We ordered the medium BBQ combo. In the past, the servers would carefully grill the meat piece by piece, controlling the heat perfectly so the meat turned out crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. However, today the server rushed everything. She put all the meat on the grill at once, even though the grill clearly wasn’t hot enough. The fire was very low, so instead of grilling, the meat was basically being boiled.
What made it worse was that after putting the meat on the grill, the server disappeared for a long time. The fire on the grill eventually went out, and the meat was left sitting there half-cooked for quite a while. It completely ruined the quality of the meal.
We spent around $200, and honestly, it was not worth it at all. For that price, I could have bought plenty of high-quality meat from the supermarket and grilled it myself at home.
This experience was very disappointing, especially on Valentine’s Day. We truly loved this place, but after this visit, we will seriously reconsider whether we want to come back again.

Chosun Hwaro Marinated Combo $139
I came here on a Tuesday afternoon while in town on vacation. I came with family: 2 adults and 2 children.
The staff was inviting, friendly, and knowledge about the menu. This was only my second time having Korean BBQ in the restaurant and I excited to have a meal tasty lunch and cultural cooking experience before my evening flight.
This was only my second time at a Korean bbq spot and I was floored by the service as well quality and taste of the food and drinks. The staff remembered my family and restarted us even more kindly and interacted well with the young kiddos in our party.

Spacious, courteous and lets not forget the meats is off the chart good. I do not wish to make this and elongated review, but all I can say is definitely worth the trip.
This KBBQ has a full bar as well. Not common in many Korean restaurants.

If you’re serious about Korean BBQ, ChoSun Hwaro should be on your radar. On the pricier side but well worth the experience.
The experience starts with the spread — a table full of fresh banchan (side dishes) that could honestly be a meal on their own. From kimchi with the perfect tang to the crunchy pickled radish, every little dish adds something to the feast.
The highlight, of course, is the meat selection. We went all-in with marinated short rib and pork belly, and watching them hit the grill was a moment of pure joy. Tender, flavorful, and cooked exactly how you want it, right at your table. The quality is there — you taste it in every bite. We ordered the ChoSun Hwaro marinated set for 139, side a pork belly and seafood pancake. For 5 people, with two big guys over 6 ft tall, we were stuffffed!
Service was attentive without hovering — staff checked in often to make sure the grill was running smoothly and that our table stayed stocked. The atmosphere is lively but not overwhelming, making it just as good for a family dinner as it is for a night out with friends.
By the end, I had eaten way more than planned, but that’s the magic of Korean BBQ done right — you lose track of time (and portion control).
ChoSun Hwaro nails it: great food, thoughtful service, and an experience that makes you want to come back. Ellicott City, Korean bbq, only one clear option.

Good food and vibes! The prices are a little bit higher because it is a la carte but I feel like quality of the meat is a lot better than somewhere else like Iron Age. Overall it comes out to about the same price anyways. We went and they had a good deal for restaurant week this week!
