Mu Goong Hwa Garden - Ottawa

Wow! Wow! Wow! Did I say wow?!?!? Authentic Korean for sure! I have been on the hunt for months here in Ottawa! We finally found our gem! Honestly, it's not even worth doing the AYCE. If you order from the table top BBQ a la carte menu you get unlimited side refills, rice and lettuce. They also told me (at the restaurant) that the a la carte meat is better quality. I didn't try AYCE instead my husband and I did 1 plate of beef(TB2 16.95) and 1 combo plate(TB6 17.95). We received 4 side dishes (bean sprouts, kimchi, seaweed and Bok choy). We also got rice, lettuce and an amazing sauce to go with the lettuce wraps. Honesty, this was more than enough food for 2 people. If you are looking for just BBQ. This is it!!!!!!!!!!! Compares to authentic Korean BBQ from Toronto, Montreal and NYC! Yes I've been around ! Do not shy away because it's downtown it's worth the hunt for parking. There is metered parking outside and around the area. The staff is amazing! Super friendly and kind. They explained everything to me. I had a million questions to ensure I got the best meal for my ! They also answer questions on Facebook if you are looking to ask anything specific. All the haters on here, you truly are missing out or have no idea what authentic Korean food tastes like.

The food was amazing. The server we had was fast and polite. Can't wait to go back.

Delicious food! Service is sometimes hit or miss but the food is excellent regardless!

We ordered 30 take-out meals for a large work group and they executed it flawlessly! The food tasted amazing and they were so accommodating! I highly recommend this place and I would definitely order from here again.

Went here purposely avoiding the Korean BBQ. If it's not an actual table grill the food always takes too long to cook. I wouldn't recommend this place for Korean BBQ as I watched as groups of 4 can cooking meat pretty damn slowly. <br/ <br/ The overall experiment was decent. The place was cold as they wanted to save on heating and the environment was bare bones with plain tables and chairs (I prefer that, as I come for food and not for the atmosphere). I got the sm1 item bulgogi with spicy tofu/seafood soup. The food quality was between low to average as the beef was dry and the seafood had been sitting in the soup for a while which made it tasteless. They overcharged me 4 bucks for some random reason because they didn't keep track of who ordered what. Wasn't too happy about that . I will definitely come back, and it's worth the try. The prices are good for what you get. Ottawa just doesn't have a big enough Korean population for amazing Korean food.
