Korean BBQ – Chilsung Garden
Reviews
The kalbi was decent but a little expensive, we asked several times for refills on the side dishes our waitress was not happy.
The portions seem smaller now on the chap che noodles.
The ten side dishes appear average today, maybe the chef not here.
We got the Prime Dry Aged Rib Eye Steak and Marinated Angus Beef Short Rib. With that we got the Pancake with Seafood and Scallion, the Noodle with Sautéed Beef & Vegetables, These 4 things we adored! We also got the Steam Shrimp Dumplings which I need to be tried more to get to like them more. The steaks were perfectly cooked by the waitress
The service was fast and professional and as it was our first time at a Korean BBQ restaurant, we needed some instruction to what to do which we were kindly assisted.
The only problem of the place was that it was slightly cold in the restaurant. Even the staff was wearing down vests but there might be a reason for this. I would have posted photos but I was too excited by the whole experience and simply forgot. Their web-sight gives an accurate portrayal of all the dishes.

After living in New York for 15 years, I finally visited Chilsung Garden for the first time. Now I see why everyone talks about it!
We were seated within about three minutes of arriving, and as soon as we placed our order, the banchan (side dishes) started coming out. True to the reputation of Korean restaurants, the service was impressively fast.
We ordered the fresh galbi and special galbi. When the charcoal grill arrived, I could tell it was the real deal—authentic charcoal that gave the meat an incredible smoky flavor. The beef was fresh, and the staff skillfully grilled it to perfection for us.
More side dishes followed, including geotjeori (freshly seasoned kimchi), steamed egg, doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew), and the highlight—freshly marinated spicy raw crab (yangnyeom gejang). While all the banchan were well-seasoned and delicious, the geotjeori was exceptionally good, and the yangnyeom gejang had the perfect level of spiciness. I don’t usually eat much rice, but I ended up finishing most of it because of the crab!
For dessert, we ordered bibim naengmyeon (spicy cold noodles), and wow—it was so good that I’d come back just for the noodles.
The service was excellent, with friendly staff and the ladies who grilled our meat doing an amazing job. It was a truly satisfying Saturday dinner, and now I understand why Chilsung Garden has remained a beloved spot for so long.
Next time, I’ll have to try the stir-fried octopus (nakji bokkeum), as my friend highly recommended it!
I haven’t eaten in NY in ages so I thought the price was a bit steep but the Galbi BBQ we had was well worth it! The quality of the meat was superb!
If I crave for good cut of meat next time, this is where I’m coming.
