" Dinner at Ong Ga Nae was a delightful experience! The ambiance was lively, and the decor felt warm and inviting, making it perfect for a family gathering or a night out with friends. I tried their noted kalbi and it was so tender! I also appreciated the variety of sides offered, which enhanced the flavor of the grilled dishes. Although there was a bit of a wait for our table, the food quality made it worthwhile! Definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ong Ga Nae had some really great BBQ, but I must admit I was disappointed with the sweetness of the bulgogi. I prefer a more savory flavor profile. The portions were massive, which was a plus, but I feel that the service could be more attentive. We had to wave down our server a couple of times to get their attention. Overall, I would recommend it, but just know it might not be as balanced flavor-wise as you expect. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a family gathering at Ong Ga Nae and it was perfect! The meats were fresh and tasty, and the side dishes complemented the meal quite well. The high point was definitely the attentive service from the staff who helped cook our meats just right. If you’re looking for a cozy place for KBBQ, this is it! " (*Curated Review*)

" We were not impressed with our visit to Ong Ga Nae. While the quality of the food was decent, the service was extremely slow. We had to repeatedly ask for refills and sides that came late. The atmosphere was nice, but with poor service, it dampened the experience. Hopefully they can work on their service levels, as the food is worth coming back for. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently took my colleagues for a team dinner here. We had an assortment of meats, including the notorious sambulgogi, which was phenomenal! The meats were cooked perfectly and the complementary sauces enhanced the flavors well. One downside was that it took a while to get service when we first arrived, which was a bit off-putting. However, once we were seated, the staff took good care of us! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my go-to KBBQ spot until recently. The changes in ownership dried up the personable service I once loved. The food remains stellar, with quality cuts and fresh banchan, but I feel a disconnection with the new staff. I'll give this place a break and maybe come back if the staff reignites the atmosphere I once loved. " (*Curated Review*)

" All around a solid choice for Korean BBQ! The meats were delicious and perfectly grilled, thanks to the attentive staff who made sure we were taken care of throughout the meal! Loved the bulgogi and the variety of banchan. Would definitely recommend to friends and family looking for a casual and fun dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)
