Bornga

One of the best Korean BBQ I have tried. Heard the owner is a celebrity chef from Korea. Pricy but quality food. The pork belly were very well marinated and of good quality. The beef were fresh and quality too. It is good that someone helped us grill the meat. Most of the time we overcooked the meat when we DIY. Those side dishes were simply delicious and quality. They serve a long tray of veggies which is very fresh. Table setting were alright, not too cramp. Quite a nice ambience for dine & chat with family or business associates. Would recommend for those who don’t mind paying a little more for quality food.

Sunday lunch with mommy and I was craving for a korean food so here we are. Trying bornga for the first time. The food is very delicious and a bit pricey when I first saw it, but it turned out it was worth it.
They served a long tray of veggies, limited variation of banchan (side dishes) and very very refreshing seaweed soup. YUM! The galbi and the pork belly were very satisfying. The waitress cooked the meat, so we dont have a chance to slow down our eating speed, and i wasnt allowed to put garlic on top of the grill. Sad! I love eating meat with grilled garlic. We also ordered their kimchi soup but it was just so so.
I would come here again when I crave for some korean food.

This branch comes with a nice view, and the food doesn’t disappoint. My soondubu was full of favors, and the banchans were tasty. No doubt, many people crave for the BBQ here.
So why two stars? While I enjoyed the food here, I did not appreciate the waitress’s attitude. My cordial request for service was responded by a rude «wait lah!» Girl, that was unnecessary.

I went into this restaurant not knowing what to expect and merely base it on the reviews I read on Unilocal.When I saw the long queue outside and the abundance of tables inside when I enter, I was surprised and thought it must be an awesome marketing strategy! To make you feel like it’s very popular!
But I can’t blame them, during our meals, the servers have been very dedicated to help us grill our meats that they are probably quite shorthanded.
Service-​wise, their servers literally stood beside my table and cooked the meat well for us, leaving us to fully enjoy our meal. Tea however was often not refilled, and I don’t like that they use plastic containers for the tea.
As for the food, the kimchi soup is nice and authentic, but a little too spicy for me. For each time we visit, always loved them serving the long row of vegetables that are so fresh, crunchy and so… green!
Each time, I ordered only two sets of meat for two persons to share and couldn’t finish it. Tried their five spices marinated meat, pork belly, the first page highly recommended beef and the premium beef set. Ranges from $ 22-​$ 48.
Overall, this is a nice Korean restaurant that I would love to visit again, though its a little pricey.

If you go in with the understanding that this is 2.5 times the price of a similar restaurant in Korea, and that you will need to repeatedly ask for refills on things that would be automatically refilled in Korea, you will probably be satisfied with this restaurant.
They did raise their prices to the point that a woo samgyup dinner for two with no drinks is $ 73 out the door. The food is arguably good enough to justify it though.

Absolutely delicious meats that are priced decently. I am definitely sold!
I am in love with their green platter. Their vegetables are fresh and yummy and I am surprised to see that most of the other patrons hardly touched it.
The less than perfect thing about Bornga is that their banchan side dishes are limited. We were only served 3 standard types of side dishes (everyone had the same 3) and although they tasted good, I was slightly disappointed at the lack of selection.
But having said that, the delicious meats and reasonable prices will bring me back! I am getting hungry just thinking about it…
