“I felt like I got more value at Howoo. I think I’d stick with Yoon Hauendae if I just want KBBQ, but Howoo is a great option for occasions, or if you just felt like being fancy on a budget.”

replying to u/TheClownKid: Nubiani is consistently the best to me. Trying Hyun and Howoo soon. But I’ve tried the rest, none come close to Nubiani for value, authenticity, selection, and quality.

replying to u/Electrical_Grab_6788: Ok, looks like it's going to be between Howoo and Nubiani. Disregarding price which one would you say has better food? service/ambiance?
“Howoo is def a step above Nubiani, a bit moodier / upscale ambiance. Both great though.”

replying to u/air-: Win Son Bakery > Win Son Have a look at Howoo or Nubiani instead of Cote > are there any craft beer places that aren't limited to one brewery for us to try other breweries from the US? Something like Torst? Torst is a good idea, also see Carmine Street or Proletariat - beer bars in general get a wide variety and you can go through untappd for menus, you should tip at bars as well
