At Han Il Kwan, we’re passionate about serving up delicious Korean BBQ that will transport your taste buds to the streets of Seoul. Our menu features all the classics - from spicy tteokbokki to savory bulgogi and comforting kimchi stew - as well as some unique twists on traditional dishes. And don’t forget to try our signature drinks, like makgeolli and soju!

Tteokbokki is one of the most popular Korean dishes that I’ve had the pleasure of trying. It’s essentially a spicy rice cake dish made with chewy tteok, which are small, cylindrical pieces of rice flour dough. The sauce is what makes this dish truly special - it’s sweet and savory at the same time, with a depth of flavor that’s hard to put into words. When you take a bite, the combination of textures from the soft tteok, crunchy vegetables, and spicy sauce will leave you wanting more.

there are so many ways to customize your bowl, from adding noodles to mixing in some extra kimchi.

Bulgogi is a classic Korean BBQ dish that consists of thinly sliced marinated beef grilled over an open flame. The marinade adds a sweet and savory flavor to the meat that’s just incredible - it’s like nothing you’ve ever tasted before! When cooked perfectly, the bulgogi is tender and juicy on the inside with a nice char on the outside. And let me tell you, when paired with some steamed rice or noodles, this dish becomes truly unforgettable.

Lively and vibrant, modern decor with traditional Korean elements, bright and warm lighting, welcoming ambiance. A restaurant that serves a variety of delicious Korean dishes in a lively and authentic setting.
