Halal korean food served here. They have seafood, fried and spicy korean chicken and also bbq lamb and beef.
Famous and well known among muslim visitors. The dishes are not cheap. Some are good but some are passable.
The non spicy hotpot is tasteless. Not worth the price of W60,000.

Absolutely horrible experience. Dingy dirty restaurant, we saw one employee throw a rag on the ground and use his foot to clean a spill. The bathroom was also awful. The food is massively overpriced for small portions. The abalone ramen was just instant ramen with one sole abalone served on top. It was also served to us with hair in it. The tteobokki was fine but too soft. The bibimbap was mediocre. The soy sauce marinated raw crab tastes good but was way to expanse for how little they give you. They also charge extra if you pay with card. Overall terrible experience. Seoul has so many other better halal options, do not eat here.
Halal korean style food restaurant at Myeongdong Area.. Good food,, warm hospitality.. Definitely will go back there if I go to South Korea again..
Always wanted to try the famous korean grill and their chicken fry finally found it was soooo happy about it. Loved their regular fired chicken better than the spicy 1. Their grilled beef was also good. Perfect location. Had to wait for sometime to get a table for us as there was a long line but it was faster than i expected.
Pricey but worth it! It’s perfectly located in the heart of Myeongdong, making it super convenient! The food here? Absolutely delicious! We especially loved the complimentary kimchi, anchovies, and seaweed.
We also ordered fried chicken from their franchise next door, and they delivered it to us right at Busanjip. Brace yourself for the prices tho 🤣 KRW 30,000 for a fried chicken set was quite steep 😅 Overall, everything here is more expensive compared to other halal Korean restaurants in Seoul, but the flavor and quality make it worth it. If you don’t mind splurging a little for great food and a prime location, this spot is definitely worth a visit!

Very good Korean Halal food in the middle street of Myeongdong. After eating you can walk to explore lots of things in this area.
The staffs were like home friendly, family and group with small kids were always welcome as well.
The halal options and material made me comfortable to eat here.

Would have been a 5 if the meat wasn’t gamey. I’ve been to other halal Korean bbq places that didn’t have that gamey taste to the meat. But everything else was incredible. We got the fried chicken from next door, beef bbq and kimchi jjigae (must have). The flavors were amazing. Syed dishes include kimchi and seaweed. They give you three small bowls too with different dipping sauces and one with salt and pepper.
The waiter cooks the meat and cuts it up into pieces initially and then you cook to whatever your meat preferences.

Food - great selection of side dishes, free refreshes. Soybean soup excellent. Tender juicy meat (super delicious).
Service - very attentive. Cooks for you. Amazing service. Easy to get a seat. Nice and cool inside. Helped us make the cold noodle dish (excellent service).
Location - great spot while shopping. Atmosphere great and lowkey (didn’t feel rushed). Communication in English excellent. Good music choice.
Highly recommend the marinated pork galbi, sirloin and marinated jumbo rib beef.
Be careful with the “enjoy for free side”. There was confusion at payment with what was included.

Beef was delicious and very tender! We ordered the short rib and kimichi pancake and was very satisfied. The side dishes were very complimentary and interesting as well. Highly recommend coming :)
Food tastes good. And the most important thing is the staff cook for us so that we can just enjoy the food. The beef is well cooked. All the starters are yummy.
Fantastic KBBQ. Really great quality meats and sides dishes were awesome! Service was top notch and prices were reasonable. A nice find in super touristy area
It was my first time having Korean BBQ, and it was incredibly delicious. The meats were excellent cuts. The server was very attentive and kind and I appreciated her grilling the meat for us. I would highly recommend this place.
first time having authentic BBQ in Korea! very foreigner friendly as they cook all the meats for you. keep in mind that you have to order at least one item per person in your group but the meats are delicious and well seasoned
We ordered beef sirloin, pork galbi and beef bulgogi, they were are all amazing. The service staff cooks the meats to perfection, the side dishes are amazing. Make sure to order the cold noodles for after the meats.
Note: the restaurant is located on the second level, so please don’t look for it on the street level like I did :)

High quality cuts and delicious side dishes. Glad we were staying a 5 minute walk from this place. They were very accommodating with our baby stroller. The pumpkin purée was our favorite side. We ordered the finger ribs and marinated short rib as well as the seafood pancake. The servers grill the meat to perfection!
Great charcoal Korean bbq. We choose mainly pork based. It was worth it!

The BBQ is really nice! Beef are fresh and made in front of you! Staff are nice but they are so busy so the smiling is lacking! But I would definitely recommend this place!
The restaurant is large and airy. It’s a nice atmosphere to dine in. I love all the side dishes. They really don’t joke around with these side dishes. The server who helped us gave some nice recommendation on sauce combination and what to pair with the meat.
Price of the food is competitive as well. The meat is fresh and tasty.
My family and I had such a great time dine in here that we came back a second time in one week.

The Google map led us to the back of the restaurant, we needed to move to the front to enter. During dinner this place can get really packed and people will queue until the streets. Lunch time tells a different story - many available tables and we just walked in and they showed us a nice table near the windows.
Selection is amazing, ordering through the screen is a breeze. As like all premium BBQ joints in the town, they helped us grill and cut everything. The staff does things fast and not much time for pleasantries. However good food, wonderful flavors. Beyond the bbq try the pancake and the cold noodles. We loved all.
Price is above normal BBQ, but I guess that’s what we expect in this area.

Great kbbq place! The meat quality is delicious and cooked well by the servers. They give a lot of generous side dishes as well. The tartare/yukhoe was also EXCELLENT. Note you need to order one portion of meat per person.
This is the first time here at Hansik Wangbijib. They use the charcoal to grill the meat and the meat is super flavorful and tender. The mushroom is also very juicy. Recommend and will visit back again.
We ordered Marinated BeefJumbo Rib and Premium Marinated Pork Galbi. It was superb! It also helps the the menu has a "scale" of how fatty and tender the dish is 😆. The taste is awesome! Plus free flow of Banchan including Japchae. Even though they offered a free side dish with a review, I would have given 5 stars anyway!
Very delicious beef and pork BBQ.
We love it. Very nice.
The staff are so friendly and skillful.
All the food was prepared for us and we just have to enjoy
This is our best lunch in Myeong-dong.
Strongly recommended.

The staff was friendly and cooked our food for us. There was no wait since we went pretty late/after dinner hour. We had pork belly and beef. The side dishes were amazing! We really like the grilled cheese which we had at the end, almost like a dessert 😅
Beef is really soft and juicy. The staff cooks your meat until your preferred doneness. The one in charge of our table seemed so particular in grilling our meat perfectly, it was fun to watch. Efficient and when you get seated everything is basically served to you with the banchan and pairings. Also, those who prefer real charcoal grill like myself, you'd appreciate this restaurant since it is cooked on actual charcoal grill not on a cast iron plate. Gives the meat a nice char taste! Highly recommended, there is a wait but not too long. Wifi is also available in this restaurant.
Highly recommended.
From the moment I sank my teeth into the succulent, smoky goodness of their BBQ beef, I knew I was in for a treat. Each cut was expertly grilled to perfection, boasting a heavenly charred exterior and a melt-in-your-mouth tenderness that left me craving more.
We had to order another round of beef for 7 pax.
The pancakes were also fluffy. The staffs excellent service, including their courtesy and English proficiency, ensured a welcoming and enjoyable visit.

Pork belly is a bit tough, chewy. Beef is not tender. Side dish was average. Seafood Pancake so so. We paid 78K won for the meal. Staff is attentive and speak English.
The BBQ meat was delicious with nice cuts, charcoal flavour. There was also a lovely lady helping us cook the meats to be tender. We ordered beef short rib, sirloin, tenderloin, and beef ribs as well. You need to wait about 10-20mins to be seated . Price is moderate but with good service and side dishes
Korean beef is so good! So tender and just melt in your mouth!
This place is pretty small, pretty common in Myeongdong area. Best for a group of 2, and up to 4 people.
We got the tenderloin, short ribs, and brisket soybean stew. The beef was cooked over charcoal to perfection. High quality and very fresh.

The grilled beef was very delicious. I was impressed very much from the good fresh beef and service. The price was a bit expensive but it was worth to pay. The side dishes were so good. I liked Yukon (seasoned raw beef) was very good. The line was quite long but it ran fast. I recommended to book the table.
I went to Korea last year and had visited this restaurant but another branch and it was good. This time I found this branch near Myeongdong and decided to visit again. The food is delicious like we had last time. Juicy meat, staff is friendly and can communicate in English. This is one of the great choices if you like eating beef.
