If you're craving an elevated Korean BBQ experience, The House Chung Dam serves it up with finesse and fire.
We went for the House Feast, featuring a decadent trio: boneless short ribs, marinated short rib, and thinly sliced brisket. The highlight? The attentive staff grilling each cut tableside to perfection—locking in those juicy, smoky flavors while letting us sit back and savor the aroma. The boneless short ribs were melt-in-your-mouth tender, the marinated ones had a beautifully balanced sweetness, and the brisket was delightfully crisp around the edges.
We also added pork jowl, which had a rich, fatty bite—crispy on the outside, buttery inside. It paired incredibly well with the array of banchan and dipping sauces.
To round off the meal, we tried both types of noodles: the Bibim Noodles were refreshingly spicy and tangy, with a great chewy texture and generous slices of beef and greens. The Cold Buckwheat Noodles (Mul Naengmyeon) were light and clean, offering the perfect palate cleanser—served in a chilled, savory broth topped with radish, egg, and slivers of beef.
From presentation to service, The House Chung Dam nails the modern K-BBQ vibe. It’s a little on the premium end, but every bite and moment felt worth it.
Verdict: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Come hungry, leave happy—and smelling gloriously of charcoal and sizzling meat.
