2019 Update: Rumor has it that Jongro has undergone a recent ownership change. However, we have not observed any noticeable change in service or quality despite what some has reported. The same crew of servers are still around and the meat is still just as high of quality.

We discovered Jongro after first visiting the Manhattan location (K-Town) with some friends. So glad we have Jongro in Flushing as well. This is not an AYCE place, for an AYCE KBBQ, please see Picnic Garden. Things will get quite expensive if you want to get full off of top quality meat cooked by your server. Yes, you get a dedicated server that will grill your meat for you. The fact that I can actual enjoy my KBBQ and not having to cook is already worth the additional cost. Not to mention, they have 2 draft beers on tap that they will happily serve to you in a pitcher format, and a large selection of soju. The ventilation system is excellent so we never have issues with smelling like meat after coming out of Jongro. If you are truly concerned about your coat, the front desk will be happy to check your coat for you. Our usual order is the beef platter, but recently we tried their new item, the marinated beef belly. OMG! The beef belly was lightly coated with a demi-glaze. We usually avoid marinated meats (as it indicates lower quality meat), but this was clearly fresh beef belly drizzled with the glaze. Once grilled, these turn into the definition of "meat candy"... I'm drooling just thinking about it. There are other food items on the menu to go with all that meat, which are all decent. The decor of this place is quite interesting, including the interesting Korean phrases with English translation right underneath. The service is superb, but just in case you need something and your server is not around, the service button is available.
