MG Korean Food Grill & Family Resto — Restaurant in Olongapo

I am editing my review since the restaurant changed its format lately into an unlimited buffet style.

MG used to be excellent! This was my family's favorite Korean restaurant. The prices were a little bit pricier than the surrounding places but all worth it because they are delicious authentic Korean dishes with generous servings. We usually order the samgeopsal, grilled beef, ossam bulgogi, doenjang jjigae, the tofu dish, the noodle dish with icy broth, jjapchae and other marinated meats for grilling. Grilled entrees always came with refillable side dishes which were all fantastic especially their kimchi (best one I've tasted on the whole city). Their meal sets were incredible as well. The other patrons we encounter whenever we ate here were usually Koreans, which means it's as authentic as it gets when Korean natives prefer eating here than other places.

Now, they offer unlimited pork or beef with a few side dishes from tteokbokki, what looks like miki-bihon pancit, and a few unappetizing watery mix of vegetables. With the exhaust ducts gone and a new table of utility dishes on one side, it is not as welcoming as it used to. Can't help but think that us frequent patrons were abandoned and is now catering to people who prefer unlimited fare. We looked elsewhere as soon as we saw how MG changed.

It was excellent...

Honestly not worth it. The food was just okay for the price, but the service was terrible. The staff brought out meat painfully slow, and we had to keep asking for things that should’ve already been on the table.

Payment was also a mess — took way too long and felt disorganized. Some of the workers seemed confused and untrained, and it felt like no one was really managing the place. A lot of basic items weren’t even restocked.

Wouldn’t recommend. There are way better Korean spots around that actually care...
