Best korean restaurant in Boston, Massachusetts (MA) 2024

My friends and I came to the Korean Garden last night to celebrate my birthday, and we had an unforgettable experience! I have never been to a Korean BBQ restaurant before, but this one is the whole works — it has the grill built into the table should you choose to order the meat you cook yourself on the table. We ordered a group combo — Combo A I believe — that was more than enough for six of us to eat! It included soups, a plethora of delicious sides, and of course the meat you cook yourself. We also ordered some soju and hot sake. I really cannot emphasize how delicious the food was; every single item on the table was scrumptious. The experience of cooking the meats ourselves was genuinely so much fun. I also just want to highlight how kind the staff was to us. I unfortunately did not get our server’s name but he was a younger guy with bleached hair; he took good care of us, was very friendly, and made sure all of our needs were met. An older gentleman who I assume was a manager or the owner of the restaurant checked in on us a few times as well and was also notably kind, helpful, and gracious. Overall we had a memorable experience and I was happy I chose to celebrate my birthday here. They really made it special. I can’t comment on whether or not they do anything specific for birthdays because we forgot to tell them that it was the occasion 😅 but the service was fantastic regardless. Thanks y’all! We’ll be back for sure. ❤️ ~Nick

Can't get enough of this chicken! A family dinner, we highly recommend the spicy chicken drumsticks with Tteokbokki (stir fried rice cakes in a spicy Korean sauce topped with melted cheese). The fried chicken that we got was half soy garlic which I would say has no spice level (lots of flavor) and the other half was spicy! A perfect 50/50 ratio for those in our group that can't handle spicy food. You get free refills of coleslaw and pickled radish which are great palate cleansers! The wait can be frustrating sometimes, but we got lucky and only had to wait 5 minutes. ~Kelly
