We love coming to Shinhwa! There is often a wait when the restaurant is very busy, usually on weekends. They play K-pop pretty loud, and they also play Korean music show clips on multiple screens around the restaurant, which I love.

We recommend going for the BBQ only, instead of hot pot; the marinated proteins are delicious, the banchan selection is wonderful, and their sauce bar is extensive (including several recipes to follow for those new to KBBQ). Also check out the Korean fried chicken next door!!

So my wife and I saw when riding by that a new spot had taken over where Million Crab used to be, so my we figured we would check it out. We’re big fans of hotpot and Korean BBQ, and with the weather being nice, we decided to take the motorcycle out for a ride and give Shinhwa a try.

The restaurant is located in a strip mall with several other smaller businesses, but parking wasn’t an issue, there was plenty spots. As we walked in, I was surprised by the transformation from the last restaurant. They had big-screen TVs mounted on two walls playing videos, which added a nice vibe.

Right off the bat, we noticed the host at the front didn’t understand English very well, and we ran into the same issue with a few other staff members throughout our visit. That made communication a little difficult. We chose to only do the BBQ option and skip the hotpot this time.

The grill at our table was already set up and ready to go, which was a nice change from other places where you have to wait for staff to start it. We placed our order using the tablet at the table, and shortly after, we saw a robot deliver our food to our table, since we weren’t there the server put in on our table. I do like the robots it’s a nice touch adds to the vibe.

Before we cook we went to the bar to see what sauces they carry. However upon our arrival we realized the sauce bar wasn’t as great as we had hoped. They expect you to mix your own, but there weren’t any ratio guides or directions to do so, and most of the sauces were oil-based. I did however find one that worked well enough, but it wasn’t ideal.

We tried a variety of items, one surprised us was the salmon, which you don’t find at every Korean BBQ place. That was a hit. The cumin chicken, on the other hand, was way too heavy on the cumin. It completely overpowered the chicken, and I had to drown it in sauce just to make it manageable. Thankfully, a lot of the other items were well-seasoned and flavorful.

They also offer a selection of wines, beers, fruit juices, and teas. I ordered the strawberry drink, and it was actually really good.

Now, the pros:
• Plenty of parking, thanks to the other businesses not having much foot traffic.
• Lots of food and drink options, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.
• Ordering is easy with either the QR code or the tablet at the table.
• You can start your own grill without waiting for staff, which is a nice change.
• Spacious seating and large booths—great for families or groups.
• Ice cream bars are included for dessert, which is also pretty cool.

But now the cons:
• Language barrier was an issue with several staff members.
• Throughout the meal, staff kept walking by and staring, which felt awkward. Not sure if they were checking on us or making sure we weren’t sneaking food out (they do have a strict no-to-go policy).
• You’re required to pay before eating, and the tip option is at the beginning. We didn’t feel comfortable tipping before knowing what kind of service we would receive, so afterward we had to go back up front to leave a tip by card, which was inconvenient.
• When the grill top needs changing, it took longer than expected. They have to go to the back to grab a new one, so you end up sitting there waiting. Other places we’ve been to usually bring replacements with them, so it’s swapped out instantly.

Overall, it was an interesting experience, but not one that would bring us back. Between the communication challenges, awkward service, and other small inconveniences, it just didn’t live up to the standard we’ve come to expect from our favorite BBQ spots.

Great place to have a fun meal. You order anything you want, it comes on a robot, then you grill it or put it in a hotpot. I had the ultimate ramen bowl crafted by me lol. I will definitely be going back its a great experience.

We did the hot pot and barbecue and it was a great experience. Good service, nice atmosphere. To do both, the price is about $44/person which is really good for the amount of food you get to eat.

I was there a couple hours ago (3:45-ish P.M on a Saturday) for the first time since I was last there. (around the time the place opened)

Just like any other hot-pot & kbbq place where you order off a tablet, make your own sauce at the sauce bar, cook your food yourself, all that type of stuff.

Music isn’t as loud as it used to be (which is good, the music was so loud my first time)
Place gets very smoky with all the grills going, though. (this is in the middle of winter, but maybe an all-year thing?)

The staff were pretty efficient with service and professional towards myself & parents, even though they warned that lack of staffing might make things slow at the door. (wasn’t a problem, but maybe for large groups?)
Specifically, a female employee (asian, maybe in her 20’s (?), VERY long braid) was very helpful, attentive, and seemed very sweet, even though her & the rest of the staff were scrambling around to attend to all the tables.

One critique I experienced today is that I wish they’d split the bokchoy into more individual pieces, because it was just split in half into two huge chunks. As I was eating, I dropped it into my broth and it splashed on my grey hoodie and such. (yeah I know that’s on me )

Also, yeah my family had to pay before being seated seemingly like many others and the price is kinda steep ($40 a person or something for both Hot-Pot & KBBQ, cheaper if you only do one or the other), btw.

Overall, solid place, but it’s slightly far from where I’m at.

I love hotpots because of this restaurant. I live in Texas but I’d make a trip to Minneapolis again just to bring my kids here. Food is great. The service is outstanding. The location is near Roseville and traffic isn’t too bad out that way. Would highly recommend

I’m very impressed with this place. I love food. The price was great and the selection was wonderful. It was a colder day so we had the hot pot. I had the Sry mushroom flavor and friend had traditional Sichuan flavor which is spicy. We had a blast trying this place out. Will come back and we will try both barbecue and hot pot. 🙂 yum yum. The place was packed.
I do NOT think it’s a place to bring your kids. Hot items there can cause burns. I thought the crying kid was annoying.

Good food, but there are better places for Korean bbq and hotpot. They have a good selection but other places have more variety. Gets the job done!

I’ve been to many hotpot locations and this place did not blow my mind. The food selection was very average but the establishment was lackluster in other departments. The table we were seated at was dirty and not wiped down at any point. We made several sauces, multiple with nothing sweet added, yet the sauces were all very sweet for some reason. The ambiance was not the most relaxing but the staff were friendly enough. High pricing given there are cheaper places close by that do this much better.

The dessert cake was actually pretty delicious though.

Intensely mediocre kbbq experience. I’m a madman for kbbq. Grew up in Korea eating it often and have continued to do so where we I end up. Rapid fire: kimchi was too sweet, spicy pork was too sweet, pork belly was cut so poorly and was a weird thickness. Probably need to sharpen their slicers. Beef bulgogi was not bulgogi at all. More accurate to call it a black peppered steak. The only meat option that felt authentic with traditional flavors was the short rib, and even then you would generally expect a short rib that is more marinated. The soybean paste which is the traditional pairing for galbi was a thin almost watery consistency.
They had good bean sprout kimchi and cucumber kimchi was delicious.
All in all not worth the 40$ per person despite the included treats
