RUN AWAY! Ridiculously awful and overpriced JUNK! THE worst restaurant I have ever been to!!! I dont know how those positive reviews come from, but Im sure the owner must spend a great deal of efforts on soliciting them. Food: as a person that has been to numerous Korean restaurants, the food is far below average and ridiculously over pricing. The BBQ, which I specifically asked for cooking by my self, was brought directly from Kitchen looking like a leftover from two days ago. The noodle looks like from the sink. Service: We were charged 18% tips on the bill. We have 4 adults and a 5 year old kid. No one told us upfront until listing it on the bill. Also, the communication was Sergio. The girl is nice, but cant communicate well if you dont speak Korean. As I said, we changed to the table with the stove and asked for cooking BBQ by ourself. They were still prepared by the kitchen. When I questioned, the girl still didnt get it. Overall, STAY AWAY from it, if you dont want to spend $30 and left the place half hungry and absolutely frustrated. Ruined our Sunday, seriously! I should give 0 star if it is an option.

I am from out of town and visited this place for the first time yesterday. I had a VERY bad experience at Green pepper (another Korean restaurant around this area) which I had to walk out of that restaurant and ended up here. When I first walked into this restaurant, it was SO busy. I wasnt too thrilled because I was hungry and in a bad mood because of the experience at green pepper and didnt want to wait. But despite the craziness, we were greeted by the staff and was taken to a table right away. I watched as the two servers working SO hard. We got our food in a timely manner and the food was amazing as well. This place is very small and looks old but dont let the looks fool you. The food was amazing and the staff were so good as well. We made sure we left a great tip. If youre ever in this area, make sure you try them out. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME GOING TO GREEN PEPPER RESTAURANT!

A restaurant can be forgiven for having a poor location, a lackluster atmosphere, or tasteless food if it excels in the other two categories. Sadly this restaurant misses the mark on all three. Parking was a 10 minute ordeal on a Wednesday night. The interior decoration is completely lacking and the food was quite disappointing. The bebimbab was void of flavor; even with a copious serving of hot sauce. An order of traditional pancakes were a little better but extremely oily. Sadly, I have to say that Korea Garden swung and missed three times, and now theyre out.

They had a new special menu, and so I tried the yukgaejang (shredded beef stew) from it. It was excellent--very meaty, full of flavor, with nice and soft glass noodles. The stew was hot and spicy, and it feels great to eat this on a warm day (counterintuitive, but its a very Asian thing to do). We also got their seafood noodle stew (jjambbong), which is more of a Korean-Chinese dish, but equally rich and spicy with a more hand-pulled type of noodle. Definitely recommended!

I enjoyed my time there, they give you gum at the end of the meal which I thought was pretty cool, the staff were very polite as well. The food was good, Ive had better korean but its best Ive had in pittsburgh so far! I will return!

한국에서 먹던 음식맛이나서 눈물찔끔 할뻔했음. 탕수육 짬뽕 선택해보시기를.

Nothing fancy here; a barebones Korean restaurant serving good food. Not sure about prices; I came with a group and had a prix fixe sort of deal, but the soju was priced reasonably.

Got the Sahm Sun Jjam Bbong. Had it over a dozen times in Seoul and they did a fine job making it. Not quite as spicy as Id like, but Im being picky. Would return again.

Been to a few korean restaurants in the tri-state area. This one ranks in top 2. Friendly service and prices arent bad for being in a city.Spicy pork is my favorite.

Very modest environment but the food was great. Ive had better beef but the squid and hot pot was amazing. I would revisit next time in Pittsburgh!

Best Korean youll find in town. Great location for the college kids. Renovated interior is nice. Cleaner and brighter decor.

Soondubu and bibimbap are consistent. Some stuff is hit or miss, like the bossam.
