5. Masil Korean Charcoal Grill Restaurant
Since it is a charcoal grill restaurant, the tendency here is to sit entranced as cuts after cuts of beef and pork get flipped over and over again in front of you. But challenge yourself to take a break from the charred meat and order the Korean dishes that are usually dominate by the gleaming strips of barbecue. If you’re fan of spicy soup, you need to order Kimchi Chigae and Sundubu Chigae here. Their Dolsot Bibimbap is also a popular order.

This one’s an oldie but a goodie. Korea Garden was the country’s pioneer in Korean cuisine and us foodies are forever grateful for it. Their best-selling is the Nakchi Bogum, a dish made up of tenderly cooked octopus made to swim in a red chili-based sauce. Their Korean Beef Stew is another no-fail pick here, with the same sweet flavor and mouth-watering meat.
