The food was all delicious. The staff were friendly and we went with a group, but the house service was a little disappointing compared to other places.

As expected, the taste of cold noodles(Naengmyun) is excellent. Today, I chose the hoe-deopbap, and it was the best choice. The sashimi and various vegetables were abundant, and most of all, it was fresh and satisfying. The galbitang had soft ribs, and the broth was delicious. The side dishes were also clean and good. This is a restaurant I would recommend for a family gathering.

First Time at Chilsung Garden – Now I Understand the Hype! After living in New York for 15 years, I finally visited Chilsung Garden for the first time. Now I see why everyone talks about it! We were seated within about three minutes of arriving, and as soon as we placed our order, the banchan (side dishes) started coming out. True to the reputation of Korean restaurants, the service was impressively fast. We ordered the fresh galbi and special galbi. When the charcoal grill arrived, I could tell it was the real deal—authentic charcoal that gave the meat an incredible smoky flavor. The beef was fresh, and the staff skillfully grilled it to perfection for us. More side dishes followed, including geotjeori (freshly seasoned kimchi), steamed egg, doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew), and the highlight—freshly marinated spicy raw crab (yangnyeom gejang). While all the banchan were well-seasoned and delicious, the geotjeori was exceptionally good, and the yangnyeom gejang had the perfect level of spiciness. I don’t usually eat much rice, but I ended up finishing most of it because of the crab! For dessert, we ordered bibim naengmyeon (spicy cold noodles), and wow—it was so good that I’d come back just for the noodles. The service was excellent, with friendly staff and the ladies who grilled our meat doing an amazing job. It was a truly satisfying Saturday dinner, and now I understand why Chilsung Garden has remained a beloved spot for so long. Next time, I’ll have to try the stir-fried octopus (nakji bokkeum), as my friend highly recommended it!

One of my favorite K-BBQ joints in Queens. It's very clean, fresh and premium meats offered and they cook for you. Please be vocal about how you want your meats cooked otherwise it's pretty much medium well. I prefer medium rare so you gotta watch that grill! The prime rib and Angus beef are excellent. Galbi as well. Bimbimbap is delicious and I recommend it. The seafood pancake and scallion pancake is delicious - not too greasy. Their generous ban chan is another reason to try this place. They offer more than many other places I've been and the variety is great too (steamed egg, squash, squid, kimchi, cabbage, salad, and so much more). Great service - just wished that the table for four was a little more roomy. The grill was not centered to the table so one person loses some surface space. Also given the generous plate sizes and depending on how much you order, there's literally no room once everything shows up. We ended up using the cart they brought the meats on, as an extension to our table. There was no room!

A very large selection on their menu! Not only do they offer Korean barbecue, but sushi as well. The combo platter that we ordered is supposedly their most expensive - 4 different kinds of meat, a sushi platter, a bottle of red wine, a bottle of sparkling water, and soup. I don’t believe I left anything out. The food was delicious. The meat is cooked medium well and is very flavorful. The soup was delicious as well. Quite sweet, which I did not expect since we requested for the soup to be mildly spicy. We received a scallion pancake for free. The pancake was thick and went quite well with the soup if paired together. The service was phenomenal although they were short staffed. Our waitress went above and beyond for our table. She even cut up the meat in bite-size portions for my children, and she set it aside for me. My advice is if you’re going to order combo platters, I would probably skimp out on those small dishes (I forget the proper name for them) because it was a lot of food and for a party of 7, we were sadly unable to finish our food. I would most definitely come here again to celebrate a birthday, or with a large group if you don’t want the food to go to waste.

Wanted to try a Korean BBQ close to where I live and this place was recommended by a friend. There were 4 of us and we went with one of the BBQ combo's. The waitress cooked the meat in an order in which they got better and better ending with the Chefs special marinated short rib. The pancake with scallions was a hit. Suprised they didnt have pork dumplings but the vegitable ones were better than most. The side were good as well, especially the soup. They gave us a choice of wine with the meal and we went with the Malbec which was average. Suprised they didnt have dessert, was looking foward to a nice green tea Mochi, but looks like they want to turn tables instead of having someone linger over coffee. Now having been there I would recommend it as well.
