Nak Won Korean BBQ Restaurant, Marina CA

I'm here wow tastes great Bulgogi lunch special lots of meat Dad had veggie meal he likes it.

Wonderful place to dine. It's a wholesome and enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!

Went with my family on a weekend (around 1 o'clock) and there were plenty of seats open. We had excellent service from all the staff there, and our server gave us good recommendations for food selections. We were served very quickly, and our server even had the kitchen give us an extra side of rice since we were sharing just a few meat choices, as well as some extra side dishes to round out our meal. The food was absolutely excellent, with great options for family style or individual portions. Our family felt well taken care of and hope to make it back some day. If you're in the area and looking to have some Korean BBQ, give this spot a try! You'll get some great food and meet some great people.

Great food! We asked the owner for recommendations, and what he recommended was super delicious! I forgot the name of the octopus dish, but we also got the bibimbap.
The owner was extremely nice! We really had fun chatting with him. If you are looking for a korean bbq, this place is a must visit.

Second time eating at this restaurant. Sourly disappointed by the quality of food. They are skimpy on the ingredients. For example, for the bibimbap I ordered, I only got a tiny amount of fatty beef. And their side dishes, a highlight of any Korean meal for me, are terrible. The kimchi we had was made from cheaper, regular cabbage as opposed to napa cabbage. This made a huge difference to the taste. It was also insufficiently fermented. It's NOT an inexpensive place to eat for all that.

Sorry to say, one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. The group and I were completely ignored the entire time. Took about an hour to get anyone to get our order in and the owner I’m assuming (tall man) was completely rude while taking our order. He was too busy entertaining a group at a different table. When we received our food, the meat was frozen and stuck together. Side dishes were good but that is all the positives I can think of. Will not be returning. The lady that brought the water was nice and apologetic about the situation.

First time eating here was last night for a date night. I was definitely impressed and will be returning regularly. The waiter is sassy and funny, he made the dinner an experience. We ordered the pork combo. The food was DELICIOUS! I ate two bowls of kimchi. I don’t know if they make the kimchi in house but it was one of the best I’ve had. I am thrilled on the rare occasion I find a restaurant that is authentic and as delicious as Nak Won is. It is nice to have something different as most restaurants in the area serve the same boring stuff to appeal to tourists. Can’t wait to return!

Loved this place! It was my first time trying Korean and I am hooked. Great service. I got the ramen with wonton and it was delicious. I would definitely go back again.

Food was good but the Waiter had a dirty mouth… he might’ve not known our age, but he asked MINORS if we were in town to explore our sexuality…?

Second time eating here. The first time was with a large group, this time it was me and my husband. We ordered the Paradise Combo, which gives you 3 meat options and included sides. If you're starving, I would opt for the 2-person combo, but even then, it was a lot of food, so the price is in proportion to what they serve you. Otherwise I would opt for 1 choice of meat, that can easily feed 2 people and add sides, this will be a more economic option if your not looking to explore the different types of meat or have a smaller appetite.

They were short staffed, but even so, our waitress was attentive but literally running from table to table. Ambiance is not inviting. It felt very outdated. If it wasn't for friends inviting us the first time, just by the looks, I probably would have opted to go somewhere else. But as they are saying, don't judge a book by its cover. It's worth trying if you want Korean BBQ

This is not a good restaurant for Korean food. The overall cleanliness of this restaurant is not good. The restaurant is in dire need of sanitation. The waiter has a dirty mouth and speaks inappropriately about things that have nothing to do with ordering food or about the restaurant. The food is expensive for very small portions. The quality of the meat is cheap and not good for the prices charged.
The flavours are alright but not anything exceptional. Overall I rate this restaurant as below average because of the staff and the skimpy portions.

Nak Won Korean BBQ is the most authentic Korean BBQ in California. The portions are perfect, and the service is exquisite.
The night my party went the house was packed, but they had no problems or delays with any food service. I had the pleasure of watching Steve, one of the original staff, go from table to table and help everyone in the restaurant learn to BBQ the right way.
Steve had funny anecdotes and was friendly and knowledgeable.
The food is to die for! We spent most of our time frying up seasoned pork and pork belly, but the soup and other dishes were incredible!

Thank you Steve and staff for an amazing night with such a wonderful atmosphere.
I will be back!

Hot pots here are the best. Ask for an extra egg. The owners are super friendly. Using the grill is very enjoyable with a group but we usually just order off the menu.

The ribs and soybean paste stew are really delicious. The amount of meat per serving is really generous. The owner and staff are also very friendly. I went with my father-in-law and mother-in-law and they were all satisfied.
Galbi and soybean paste stew are really delicious. The amount of meat per person is really generous. The owner and staff are so kind. I went with my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and everyone was satisfied.

On Saturday we had the opportunity to go to this restaurant for the first time and it immediately became my family's favorite.
The food is delicious, as we were there for the first time we decided to try El Marina Combo to have variety and we liked everything! The family atmosphere is very pleasant and lends itself to living with family or friends
The attention is very good, although it was a bit crowded, they attended us very kindly and quickly, we had a 16-month-old baby with us and as a courtesy of the house they brought him a plate of noodles (glass noodles) that he loved! We will definitely be back whenever we get the chance!
I recommend it!

Service was really good, food is really good too, but unfortunately the sanitizing part needs to be improve, there was a hair in the Bibimbap.and they still charged me for it.
