You know the food is good when there’s a wait at 5pm on a Monday. My new favorite kbbq spot!

This isn’t an AYCE restaurant so they have premium meats served al a carte or with a combo. We ordered the brisket and black pork belly combo for 2 with steamed egg and tofu soup – our table all agreed it was the best tofu soup we’ve ever tasted.

They grill the meats for you while you enjoy the banchan spread which included napa and radish kimchi, soy bean sprouts, seaweed salad, mung bean jelly. pancake, and anchovy pepper stir fry.

Though this is a bbq spot, don’t miss out on the other menu items! The boiled pork belly was incredibly tender, and they even cut the beef for you table-side when you order galbitang.

A must-try is their Pyongyang cold noodles (naengmyeon), which are made in-house from scratch. We ordered the bibim naengmyeon and were also offered mul naengmyeon, so we got to try both!

Everything was so good, I’ll definitely be back to try other menu items!

My first time here and will definitely not be my last! My bf recommended this place for naengmyeon, but today we tried the korean bbq. We ordered the small wagyu set with two small orders of naengmyeon and bibim naengmyeon to share between three adults and it was definitely more than enough. Everything was super tasty and I enjoyed the variety of banchan! Jack and the ahjummas were very attentive to our family. The restaurant is very clean and the decor is super cute! Can’t wait to come back!!

This place is more than just KBBQ with many kinds of Korean food.

Thankfully we didn’t wait at all coming on a weekday evening around 5 PM. Tip for you!

There are many Korean customers but non-Koreans customers like us we didn’t feel awkward or uncomfortable as they were accomodating.

We ordered the 2 person non-marinated combo and the quantity was just right. It came with 3 kinds of meat, 1 egg, and 1 soup (you can choose between 2). And yes they cook for you.

The number of banchan aka side dishes was amazing! Everything was so good and loved the variety.

I felt their Seafood Pancake wasn’t their best. It tastes more flour and doughy instead of tasting the actual seafood ingredients.

It was my first visit to Moran Gak in Fullerton, and I was genuinely impressed. Our server, Jack, was incredibly friendly and left a great impression. The quality of the meat was excellent, and I was really satisfied with everything we ordered. The cold noodles weren’t exactly the traditional Pyongyang style that Moran Gak advertises, but they were still very enjoyable. Among mid-range Korean BBQ spots in Orange County, this was easily one of the best experiences I’ve had.

A longer & awaited review for my Mo Ran Gak Korean Bbq house visit for Fathers Day Dinner w the fam bam 06.15.25

THEY ARE CLOSED ON TUESDAYS. FYI

what we ordered

~ Prime non marinated kbbq combo, we got 2 of this for our family of 8, 5 adults & 3 kids. Was really fulfilling and had left overs to bring back home. Their meat is top notch quality. You can literally tell it’s good. i prefer the non marinated flavor itself.
~ Pyeongyang Mul Naengmyeon aka Cold noodles were a great treat for our dinner meals deed cap. Noodles were yummy chewy good.
~ Soufflé egg was served in the hot clay pot.

Banchans aka side dishes were on point and all good.

Their items are freshly made along it doesn’t disappoint.
Associates were awesome and very fast responding to our Banchans refill and other request.

Restaurant is a little on the smaller side for a Korean bbq. Felt it was a bit compact and not so much walking space between the aisle.

Basic Korean restaurant, not an AYCE. Order the combos you’d like.

The wait was an hour. All of your guest must be present in order to be seated since it’s a 2 hour seating limit.
Lots of parking available in the same shopping plaza as A R Korean market and a few doors away from Paris Baguette Korean bakery too.

Highly anticipated opening – much cleaner (and nicer) than the original GG location. Great banchan spread and loved the egg soufflé 계란찜. Yelp waitlist was easy- went around the corner to Arirang and did some light grocery shopping while waiting. On a previous visit, we brought our toddler and the staff was so friendly and even gave him some Korean soup + rice. Save room for the cold noodles. Will be back soon!

We ordered the BBQ set for two, and both the beef brisket and pork belly were very good! I’m usually concerned that pork belly can be too oily, but theirs was not at all. The steamed egg that came with the set was also delicious, my daughter loved it. It’s definitely one of those dishes that most kids would enjoy.

We also ordered the hot stone bibimbap, which was excellent. The vegetables were very fresh and flavorful.

The only dish that didn’t meet my expectations was the cold noodles. I had seen a lot of recommendations, so we decided to try it. While the portion was quite large, the noodles were served extremely cold. I have sensitive teeth, so it was a bit too much for me, and the flavor was also a little plain.

Great experience in the Fullerton location. The food was delicious and the service was phenomenal. Our server Jack went above and beyond, had great awareness when our table was full, and made the night even better. Would definitely come back.

Mo Ran Gak is incredible! We showed up 10 minutes before closing, but the food was still amazing and came out so fast. Since it was our first time, our server Jack was A1—he explained every single side dish and made sure everything was done to perfection. Out-of-this-world service

This is hands down my favorite Korean BBQ spot! I always bring my friends here whenever they visit. The marinated short ribs and the cold noodles are absolute musts — so flavorful and never disappoint. Highly recommend if you’re craving good Korean BBQ!
