" Korean BBQ is my jam, and I was looking for a place that felt genuine. I heard about Ban Chan and had to check it out. The BBQ pork was juicy, and we paired it with their lovely banchan. However, a couple of them were not up to par. The waitstaff were friendly but a bit inattentive at times. Nevertheless, the vibe was warm and homey, making it an enjoyable experience overall. I'd return, but perhaps during a busier time to see how they handle the rush. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Ban Chan! The moment we walked in, the smell of delicious Korean spices flooded our senses. We ordered the bibimbap and spicy beef soup, both of which tasted so authentic that it transported me back to my time in Korea. The portion sizes were generous, and we even had some amazing homemade kimchi on the side. The service was friendly and quick; they made sure our glasses were never empty! Highly recommend giving this place a visit if you're craving Korean food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Ban Chan last week due to a friend's recommendation, and I can definitely see why. The atmosphere felt vibrant and full of life! We ordered several dishes, and each had its own unique flair; however, the highlight for me was the Spicy Tuna Bibimbap. The wait staff was welcoming and attentive, but the wait for dinner was slightly longer than expected. Overall, I left with a smiling face and a happy belly! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I are regulars at Ban Chan. We've tried numerous dishes and rarely leave disappointed. The galbi is fantastic while the green onion pancake is a must for any table. The service is always friendly and welcoming, and although it can get busy, the staff handles it well most of the time. I appreciate the authenticity they bring to the table. It's great to have a slice of Korea right in our area! " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance at Ban Chan is casual but incredibly inviting. I went with a friend, and we ordered a mix of side dishes before our main course. The sweet potato noodles were exquisite, and the spicy tuna rolls were unique compared to what I had elsewhere. However, all this is marred by a rather rude server who seemed to be in a hurry. Food quality is high, which is why I’m giving it a four out of five; a little more attention to service and it could easily be a five-star experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Ban Chan was quite fulfilling! Each dish we ordered delivered layers of flavors that echoed the traditional Korean culinary experience. The server was patient and helpful in navigating the menu, which was great since we were new to the cuisine. However, I wasn’t impressed with the manner in which the food was served; there were some discrepancies between what was shown on the menu and what we received, which deducted from the overall experience. Nonetheless, I will consider returning to try more authentic options! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can honestly say that I had a wonderful dining experience at Ban Chan! The quality of their ingredients shone through in every dish we ordered. The spicy pork and shrimp fried rice were standout dishes for sure, with that perfect heat that Korean dishes are known for. The service could have been a bit quicker, but the server was friendly and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed. I will surely be coming back whenever I am craving authentic Korean food!
