" Simply fantastic! I ordered the beef BBQ combo, and it was the best decision ever. The flavors were magnificent, and each bite was a wave of delightful seasonings. The portion sizes are huge for the price, which is a bonus. The atmosphere was lively, but not overwhelming. Service was top-notch, with the staff frequently checking in on us without being intrusive. This spot deserves all the praise it gets! " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to try Haru BBQ after hearing rave reviews from friends, and I can honestly say, it lived up to the hype! The kimchi is excellent and has a perfect balance of spice and flavor. The bulgogi beef was tender and grilled to perfection. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed without being intrusive. The atmosphere is cozy and ideal for a relaxed meal. Overall, this is my new favorite Korean restaurant in Nanaimo! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Haru BBQ during a weekend lunch, and while the food was tasty, the service lagged a bit. I had high expectations for the tteokbokki, but it wasn't on the menu, which was disappointing. However, the seafood pancakes were delightful and had a crispy texture that I loved. It felt like a well-kept secret, and I’d definitely return to try more of their offerings. The price point was also very reasonable for the amount of food. I think I’ll bring some friends next time so we can share a variety of dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Haru BBQ is a solid choice if you're in the mood for Korean food. The bulgogi is super flavorful, though the dish could use a bit more of the marinade. I found the atmosphere quite cozy, great for dinner with friends. The service was welcoming but maybe a little slow during lunch hours. Overall, a delightful experience that I would repeat. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has some really good Korean BBQ options! I particularly enjoyed the grilled mackerel, which was incredibly fresh and well-cooked. The service was warm and welcoming, making the visit enjoyable. I would have liked to see a few more side dish options, but overall, a very satisfying meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was quite the experience! I was initially a bit overwhelmed by the menu, but the staff was so helpful. I went with the spicy tofu stew and was blown away by the flavor! The ambiance was delightful; it's great for both a casual lunch or dinner. The portions were quite generous, and the price was reasonable. I can't wait to try more items next time I'm here.
