Bornga Korean BBQ Restaurant — Restaurant in Brisbane City

As a beloved Korean barbecue restaurant, I am not only amazing in taste, but also in the dining experience. From the environment to the ingredients, every detail is worth savoring.

The decoration combines traditional Korean elements and modern simple style to make people feel comfortable. Wooden tables and chairs and soft lighting create a warm dining atmosphere, whether it is a gathering of friends or a family dinner, it is especially suitable.

I have a variety of roast meats, beef, pork, chicken. Among them, the most worth mentioning is the store's signature snow beef, oil flower uniform, after careful treatment of the meat is tender and juicy.

Moreover, the variety of self-service Korean side dishes (kimchi, pickled radish, bean sprouts, etc.) is perfect with barbecue. It is worth mentioning that all the side dishes can be added indefinitely to meet the different needs of diners.

My sauces come in a variety of flavors, ranging from traditional Korean hot sauce to a secret sauce with a slightly sweet texture, and even a sauce adapted specifically for Chinese diners.

Service is a big highlight for me. The warm and attentive staff is always careful to adjust the cooking of the roast to ensure that each piece of meat has the best taste. In addition, the waiters are on call, filling dishes and pouring water are very timely, which makes people feel full of sincerity.

Compared to the average Korean barbecue shop, my price is on the medium side, but it is very cost-effective in terms of the quality of the ingredients and the...

Visited this place with a friend and it was absolutely wonderful, the food was delicious, the staff were friendly and the place was bright and clean. I did visit with a Korean who knew what to order, how to cook the meat, when to ask them to swap the grill or take the fire out, what sides go well with the meat, how to layer the food etc which I think elevated the experience though. Visited Sunday lunch time, no queue.

If you haven't been to Korean BBQ, you'll want to note that you'll (usually) have to cook the (high quality) meats yourselves but you get the meat hot, right off the grill from the cooking station on your individual tables, right onto your plates, and the task of cooking it, choosing which sides to eat it with, all whilst catching up with friend(s) over delicious Korean alcoholic beverages is all part of the fun experience - it's really a social dining experience. Tips: for large cuts, turn the meat once one side is mostly cooked, cut the meat after both sides partially cooked as it'll be easier for smaller cuts, after first side cooked, move the meat pieces away from the middle (hottest area) off to the sides of grill and let it slow cook the other side marinated meat will cook faster as the drips trigger more flames/smoke create ssam wraps with just one meat and just a few side veges, eat the ssam whole

Had a booking for 6 people yesterday (15 Dec) at 7:30 PM, which I made in person after finishing dining on Wednesday of the same week.

When I arrived, I was informed that my booking was for 14th Dec instead of 15th and that I no longer had a reservation. It went as far as, "We held your table yesterday for over 30 minutes," which was irrelevant to me because I never made a booking for that day.

The person at the counter (who I assume to be the manager) said they could still seat us at two separate tables, which defeated the entire purpose of the booking. I raised this with him, and he said they could seat us at two tables next to each other, but we would have to wait. There were no apologies, which left a sour taste in my mouth.

Be aware, this is not a cheap Korean restaurant—it is positioned as rather premium, with a price tag per person ranging between $80 and $140 (depending on what you order). Our bill was $900 for 6 people.

At that price, I would expect top-tier hospitality and service. Unfortunately, Bornga couldn’t even match the hospitality level of other Korean BBQ restaurants in the city, such as Maru Grill House.

We had to prompt staff members several times to put the charcoal on one table, even though the meat had already arrived. The grill wasn’t installed for ages. The cup had chili powder, and the Makgeolli bowl was dirty. It was...
