Gaon by Garage BBQ | Puchong — Restaurant in Subang Jaya

Update 06/2025: Came for lunch with the wifey. Still awesome. This time we tried the soy sauce chicken, sweet & spicy pork belly & herb pork belly. Good portions. Well cooked & packed with flavor. Another great selection of banchans as well. We had a great meal.

2024: Random find as I was craving for Korean BBQ. Found this place on Google that was on the way & decided to give it a try. Typical Korean BBQ layout. Friendly service. It wasn't crowded during weekday lunch. Parking can be difficult but there is a garage however quite costly per hour.

Ordered marinated pork & spicy pork. They are grilled for you so good for those who can't be bothered. Good portion size. Served with 2 sauces (gochujang & sesame oil with salt), garlic & chili slices plus lettuce. Meals also come with 6 types of banchan.

Both the pork dishes were packed with flavor. Well grilled maintaining the juiciness with a slight char. Went well as a wrap or on its own. The banchans were also of good quality. They all had their own flavor & goes well with the BBQ. However I do wish there were non vegetarian types. Thought I could go for seconds but was so stuffed the first round. Washed it all down with a jug of cold barley tea. Refreshing & helped cut the fattiness of the meal.

It was a great lunch. Definitely worth a return to try...

Went on a Sunday night around 8pm pleasantly surprised with no crowd. The waiters were very nice and welcoming.

▶️ Cold Noodles It’s generally tough to find cold noodles available in any Korean restaurants around here. Even if it’s on the menu, most times it’s unavailable to be ordered. But it was available here and it actually tasted quite good! Would appreciate it more if they provided vinegar and mustard + option to cut the noodles 😅

▶️ Bulgogi Stew(?) Forgot what it’s called but we ordered some bulgogi beef stew that turned out to just be bulgogi gravy + water to make it a “soup”. Wasn’t very tasty 😅

▶️ Kimchi Pancake The pancake was on the sour and soggy side. Was a shocker when I first tasted it but after a while it started tasting alright 😅

Honestly, the food was so-so and we spent about RM100 for 2 but the service and environment made the experience worth it. The waiters were very attentive and friendly, and the two bosses were also very welcoming, occasionally coming over to our table to have a little chat.

Would come back to try their BBQ next time because the lady boss mentioned that that’s...

To be clear this place isn't halal.

Okay let me start with the service. The aunty and boss were incredibly friendly, helpful people. Eating there myself, I found it comfortable. Their hospitality makes me want to return. The aunty was casual and friendly and her honest quips makes it easy to decide what to order. The boss is korean and he's a funny and jolly man!

The food was generous. I had the seafood pajeon and cold bibimyeon. It came with a ton of unique side dishes that aren't commonly served in restaurants including fried chicken nuggets. I had the opportunity to trial their home brand of Taiwanese sausage which definitely has an interesting flavour that might suit some people's taste. Overall the rating reflects the quality of the food which totalled to roughly rm75.

The atmosphere was cozy and warm. Wasn't loud or uncomfortable which is great for a date or for families. Most people would enjoy this place for bbq, solo dining or casual hangs.

I'd recommend this place if you're around for korean...
