The place has many seating options inside as well as a nice spacious patio for when the weather is nice outside. The interior is designed almost like a sports bar but with a very cool and casual ambience. There is only one big tv in the back area where they have the seating for large parties.
My friends of course come for the drinks (mostly soju and beer) which goes well with the food options. The large refrigerators are usually always stocked with different beers and soju flavors and they make special cocktails as well. There is some seating at the small bar area right near the entrance if you plan to just drink and not eat anything.
On the first visit one of my friends she ordered this fancy looking appetizer consisting of cheese crackers topped with tuna (before they redid the menu). In place of that they have a tuna cream cheese dip accompanied by crispy wontons. I liked the original version they served better but this new one is still a good appetizer for sharing.
The menu is divided up several sections and I will highlight some of my favorites
SMALL BITES
Cheese balls (fried chewy crispy mozzarella with marinara sauce) - when they are freshly fried the cheese really stretches. These seem to be a popular appetizer I have seen in other places so I had to order again on my visit.
Cruchy Tofu (crunchy chewy fried tofu topped with korean sweet chili glaze, peanut, chive and sesame seed) - that korean chili glaze has a spicy kick to it. Make sure you have plenty of water at the table.
MEATS
Steak and Potatos (seared NY strip, galbi reduction, truffle parmasean, mashed potato) - One night I was in the mood for some steak and this dish was most certainly hit spot. It will not fill you up (maybe I just tend to eat a lot in one sitting) but it is a nice entree.
Sausage and Peppers (chorizo, turkey sausage, spicy beef sausage, peppers, onions, ghost pepper and barbecue sauce) - another american style dish they offer here as an entree which was tasty and good for sharing
Bossam (braised shoyu pork, scallion salad, crispy garlic) - Korean style pork is always a treat. They prepare this dish pretty well. The pork was cooked well enough to be tender.
FROM THE FLAMES
Mini burgers (seared american beef patties, pickles, American cheese, caramelized onions, crack sauce) - they reminded me of sliders except without that fast food feel. And I was I was craving for some burgers on that particular visit. You get two delicious mini burgers with this order.
Galbi Tacos (bulgogi, chili cream stew, pico de gallo, corn tortilla, buttermilk ranch) - You do not have to wait until taco tuesday. The only thing is the tortilla they use is soft so if you do not eat it right away, the bottom gets soft and it breaks apart. The us of bulgogi here is very appropriate since it is Korean style.
Korean Meatballs (house marinara, mozzarella, parmasean garlic bread) - I liked this dish but I am not sure what makes these meatballs Korean. Too bad there was no side of spaghetti.
Korean Egg Roll (soft eggs, seasoned vegetables, mozzarella cheese, sweet mayo, tonkatsu sauce) - They do the korean style egg roll here very well. I took the time to each every single piece that day instead of taking half home with me.
Mentaiko Cream Udon (mentaiko bechamel, shrimp, mussels, clam, baby octopus, julienne peppers, onions, chewy udon noodles and toast garlic bread) - they certainly loaded this with seafood and the cream sauce was delicious. This is definitely a dish you would order if you were coming with a date or good friend.
OUT OF THE FRYER
Sea Salt Fries (double crisp fries, maidon sea salt) - these are good as a regular french fry option
Cajun Fries (spicy cajun seasoning) - if you wanted to step it
Churro Fries (brown butter, churro dust) - these were surprise hit for me. And the whip cream dipping was quite unique for the fries
The employees are very polite and welcoming. Special mentions go to Casey, Rina and a tall gentleman whose name I...
Read moreI don't know what people are raving about here. These 5star reviews must be from their relatives or friends since the restaurant is newly opened. I would really love to give a small business a chance to redeem themselves if they mess up something but this place ranks way bottom in my book. First of all, they don't have authentic German meals on their menu as their menu is more of korean fusion based. They have a limited selection of beers unlike authentic beer halls which usually have vast selections of international beers and not just German ones as well as some fun flights to go with it. I ordered something akin to korean bulgogi stir-fry but it was too sweet and got cold quick so almost left the entire dish untouched. This spot where the restaurant operates is a cursed spot where so many businesses have come and gone in short span so i have my doubts but this one seals the deal because when I checked my credit card statement, they overcharged actually doubling the original tab and no one from the establishment has been courteous and caring to even resolve this therefore leaving me no choice but to dispute unfortunately. Idont wish them ill will but idont wish them good luck either. Karma is...
Read moreThe Beer Garden in Flushing was very nice. It was a cute little place and exactly what we were looking for. They had a very nice happy hour with a great selections of beers and season beers. When we got there it was slow but it got busier and apparently they are very busy at happy hours for locals. The server was extremely nice and friendly and the restaurant was very clean and cozy. They had big screens throughout the place for any sort of game you’d like to watch. They also had a “call” button at each table for when they get busy and if you need service which was really cool. The food was good, nothing over the top or fancy but it was very tasty and it hit the spot. They didn’t have a huge menu but what they did offer was great and the food the other customers had looked really good too. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a cool, local spot with good food and service. We will...
