" Naksan Korean BBQ was a delight! The overall feel of the restaurant was welcoming, transporting me right to Korea. I ordered the pork belly and short rib, both of which were tender and flavorful. The wait staff was attentive and ensured we were satisfied throughout our meal. My only complaint would be the pricing, which feels a bit steep compared to other BBQ places. Even so, the food quality made it an enjoyable experience we’d be willing to repeat. " (*Curated Review*)

" Naksan Korean BBQ has been a hidden gem for me! Since my first visit, I’ve gone back multiple times, and the experience has always been pleasant. The servers greet you with smiles, and the sentimental ambiance sets the tone for a lovely meal. My go-to is the beef combo because the cuts are so flavorful and juicy. The prices do make me do a double-take sometimes, but considering the fresh ingredients and the quality of service, it balances out. It’s perfect for a treat! " (*Curated Review*)

" My first time at Naksan BBQ, and it surely won’t be my last! I was blown away by the authentic flavors. The pork belly was cooked to perfection, and the dipping sauces paired beautifully. The servers were attentive and friendly, which contributed to a wonderful overall dining experience. The only downside was the portion sizes — they felt a bit on the smaller side for the prices charged. Nonetheless, I left satisfied and eager to return soon for more delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, what a dinner experience! Naksan Korean BBQ sets the bar high. We ordered a variety of meats and each one was cooked to perfection. The ambiance felt authentic, and I could easily imagine I was dining in Korea. The staff were super friendly and even shared tips on how to enjoy each dish. Although it is on the pricier side, every bite reminded me why it’s worth indulging at least once in a while. I will definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" After visiting Naksan BBQ, I can confidently say it’s one of the best Korean BBQ spots in Boston. The service was top-notch, from the moment we walked in and were greeted warmly. We opted for the large pork combo, and the variety of meats was incredible. Each piece was tender and flavorful. I particularly loved the egg soufflé; it’s a standout item on the menu. Though the prices were high, the experience felt worth every penny. I’m definitely coming back with more friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time at Naksan and I loved every minute! The atmosphere was lively, and the food was authentic. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the meats and how well they were cooked. The server not only cooked our food but also engaged us in conversation, which made us feel special. The only drawback is that it’s quite expensive, making it a place for special occasions rather than casual dining. All in all, a wonderful experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Naksan after hearing rave reviews. The service was fantastic and very attentive. I particularly enjoyed the kimchi pancake, which had just the right amount of heat! However, I was left slightly disappointed with the portion sizes given the hefty prices. While the food was good, I expected a more substantial amount for what we paid. I still enjoyed my visit but I’d recommend it more for special occasions when you're ready to splurge. " (*Curated Review*)
