Notable Picks

8.4
$$$ Murray Hill
A Murray Hill charcoal-KBBQ standby built around marinated galbi and a deep bench of banchan that keeps tables camping out. Come here for classic, meat-forward satisfaction and a fast-moving dining room that prioritizes grilling over ceremony.
Must-Try Dishes: Mapo galbi (marinated short rib), Sang galbi (non-marinated short rib), Steamed egg (gyeran-jjim)
What makes it special: Charcoal-driven KBBQ with marinated galbi as the main event.
$$ Murray Hill
A Korean BBQ-and-noodle hybrid where cold noodles are not an afterthought—they’re part of the strategy. The best meals pair one grilled meat combo with naengmyeon for a clean, chilled reset between richer bites.
Must-Try Dishes: LA galbi + naengmyeon combo, Mul naengmyeon (cold noodle soup), Spicy tofu stew (soondubu-jjigae)
What makes it special: KBBQ paired with legit cold noodles for a balanced meal arc.
$$$ Murray Hill
A small, family-run KBBQ room with solid marination and a straightforward, no-show approach to grilling. Expect a tighter space and simpler setup, but strong pork-and-kalbi payoff and a dependable steamed-egg side that rounds out the spread.
Must-Try Dishes: Pork belly (samgyeopsal), LA kalbi, Steamed egg (gyeran-jjim)
What makes it special: Family-run KBBQ with strong pork cuts and friendly pacing.

Worthy Picks

$$ Murray Hill
A spacious, group-friendly Chinese BBQ-and-small-plates spot where skewers are the main attraction and cold dishes fill the gaps. It performs best as a casual hang: pick a skewer base (lamb/chicken), add one standout vegetable, and finish with one hearty side to close.
Must-Try Dishes: Lamb Skewers, Crack Eggplant, Cold Noodles (Lapi)
What makes it special: Skewer-first Chinese BBQ in a larger room that suits groups.
$ Downtown Flushing
An old-school, charcoal-skewer room where the appeal is direct: hot chuans, heavy cumin, and a late-night snack rhythm. It’s at its best when you eat on-site and keep the order tight—meat skewers plus one vegetable skewer, then repeat.
Must-Try Dishes: Charcoal Lamb Skewers, Chicken Wing Skewers, Corn Skewer
What makes it special: Charcoal-driven Beijing-style skewers in a no-frills, late-night setup.
$ Downtown Flushing
A casual skewer stop that prioritizes convenience and late hours over polish, with a menu built for quick, shareable snacking. The best experience comes from ordering in rounds—start with lamb and chicken skewers, then add one shellfish or veg item if you’re still hungry.
Must-Try Dishes: Spicy Clams, Cumin Lamb Skewers, Grilled Enoki Mushroom
What makes it special: Late-night Chinese skewers and small plates with fast turnaround.
$ Downtown Flushing
A counter-style Northeastern Chinese BBQ and snack stop that also reads like a daytime bites shop—quick, practical, and best for grab-and-go. Aim for one signature carb (like a stuffed pancake) plus a couple skewers rather than treating it like a full sit-down feast.
Must-Try Dishes: Beef Pancake (Huoshao), BBQ Skewers, Lamb Soup
What makes it special: Fast, counter-friendly Northeastern BBQ with snackable carb staples.
