We have tried Palacio Gung in Santiago and Santo Domingo and both have been outstanding! The portions are large and the food is always delicious. This is the best Korean food I’ve found on the island! I love how they keep with the traditional custom of serving banchan (the small side dishes they bring out to start a meal) before bringing the main course. I had the bibimbap and my husband had the kimchi fried rice with pork and they were both excellent. We even asked the waiter if they could substitute the ground beef in the bibimbap for sliced beef and they obliged kindly. The staff was very kind and accommodating and the prices are reasonable, especially since Korean food isn’t easy to find in the Dominican Republic! We will definitely be back!

Amazing! Loved EVERYTHING! -SERVICE WAS FRIENDLY & EXCELLENT -AMBIENCE WAS EXCELLENT -PRICES OF FOOD WERE REASONABLE BASED ON PORTIONS (compared to NYC) -TOTALLY AUTHENTIC KOREAN FOOD (which I did not expect in Dominican Republic) -CLEAN RESTAURANT AND RESTROOMS -TEA WAS SUPER EXPENSIVE IN MY OPINION, BUT IT WAS WORTH IT BECAUSE OF EVERYTHING ELSE I would recommend them to expand their menu and add KALBI. Dominicans and ALL would love it! I am from GUAM, U.S.A. (4 hour flight from Seoul, Korea) and we LOVE Korean Food... I found this spot so randomly and was my last dinner in Santo Domingo. I totally recommend this place for Korean food lovers like me. Definitely coming again!

Es una casa en una calle muy discreta y ambientada con música y decoraciones coreanas. Hay aire acondicionado, pero no se sentia mucho. Fuimos en la tarde, a eso de las 2 y estaba lleno en el primer nivel, en el segundo casi lleno, tienen una parte/galería afuera donde te puedes sentar agusto de noche, de dia hace mucho calor. Los baños más limpios que he visto en un restaurante en mucho tiempo y eso deja mucho que decir. El tercer nivel parece que está en proceso de habilitarse. Las atenciones fueron excelentes, los que servían hasta sabían la pronunciación de los platos con el acento dominicano característico jejeje. Tienen opciones individuales, para compartir de 2 y 4 personas y asi...Las entraditas para entretener el paladar en lo que venía el plato principal fueron suficientes para prepararlo (Mis entradas favoritas sin duda el kimchi, unos coditos que sabían a ensala rusa/ los trozitos de berenjena en una salsa marinada y otro que no le acuerda que estaba agridulce /picante) todo estuvo super bueno, lamentablemente tuvimos que dejar las sopas, (habíamos pedido una picante y otra sin picante) que venían con el plato principal porque entre el pescado, cerdo, huevo, arroz etc ya no había espacio en el estómago.. También pedimos soju de fresa y jugos naturales, el precio del Soju es algo exagerado que lo cobran cerca del 40% de lo que cuesta en la tienda y ya esa será mi única crítica.

A curious little place, a house in a residential area and very easy to miss if you are not looking for it. Parking is on the street and limited. Once you enter, the restaurant is much larger than it appears from the street and is plainly decorated except for some rater ornate plaster work and columns. The food however is far from plain, with a good range of Korean staples. Another curiosity is that there are no starters on the menu, instead with every main dish, comes a large platter of mixed starters. These are light, mainly vegetables, including kimchi and are a delicious way to start the meal. The main dishes were very good and the service attentive. An excellent surprise was the bill, with more than reasonable prices. Overall a very good...
