Reviews of Nam Kang (Restaurant)

Kesha B

Rude and bad service

Aaron Elson

Glorious Korean food!

Anna Kent

One of my favorite restaurants, sober or drunk. Excellent food, lovely and prompt service, killer bathroom tiles. My only complaint is the slippery metal chop sticks. That's seriously it.

Vallarie B

My fav Korean place for Soon Dubu Jigae, Ojingha Bukum, and many other dishes. The Kalbi is so so here. But everything else? DELICIOUS!

Kyu Lee

Food tasted same as 23 yrs ago during college years!

Phong Le

Great food and friendly staff!

katie kang

Eui chul Hwang

this is not... just not...

javier wilson

Good food, not good service.

Humberto Misteroni

Damnit Nam Kang! Every time I think I found a good bulgoki spot you blow them out the water. Mom and Pop's ops that deliver some of the best food this 53 yo has ever eaten. Trust me, I'm fat.

Kim DeBarge

Been coming here for ages. The food is fabulous and they’re open late.

Matthew Zuckerman

Open late. Food is hotttt

Micah Baham

Best I've had in Baltimore!!! (Edit: I just love this place. I'm changing Baltimore - Maryland. Best I've had in Maryland)

B.L. Willaims

Late night eats for the win open until 3 or 4am

virgil collington

They have karaoke!

Deborah Silver

Great customer service and yummy banchan! The "mashed potato" (tasted like potato salad) was my favorite! The restaurant has nice atmosphere and is great for groups. The quality and flavor of the food wasn't top notch, but still was authentic and tasty.

michele rosenberg

Excellent

Matthew Jones

Amazing food, great service!

Heath Bebout

Dol Bab is amazing!!

Gwen Francis

Always a pleasant experience.. sometimes when I'm ill I crave for their kalbi tang, which is a beef brisket soup. Their Dol bab is sooo good too.. you can always stumble in here after a late night out, the food is hangover friendly.

Jonathan Austin

Delicious food! Great service.

Daniel Pelaez

David Raymond

My all time favorite Korean restaurant. The service is quick and friendly. The food is excellent and well prepared.

Rochell Rankin

The food was delicious. A little high but worth it

Yong-Bin Kim

This is the best korean restaurant in Maryland. The taste is really Korean!

James Beach

Hung up on me for asking about delivery..

Jim Chow

Food was delicious and the host was attentive to our needs.

Angela Scruggs

The proprietors treated me disrespectfully and as if I wasn't worth the time and effort to be a customer.

IF I COULD GIVE IT ONE STAR I WOULD!! THIS PLACE HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICES...EVER!!!! I work at a small law firm in the Baltimore area and have order lunch bulgogi boxes from them quite often. I will call the order in and go and pick it up because I just do not have the time to wait. I called today, February 22, 2019, at 12:55p to place an order for 3 bulgogi lunch boxes and was told that I have to pay first when I come in and then they will make it. I told him that I cannot wait 15-25 mins while you make my food. I need it ready when I come in. I explained to the guy (I'm assuming he was the owner) that I order from you all quite frequently, multiple orders at a time. He yelled in the phone, "I DONT CARE, PAY FIRST AND THEN I'LL MAKE IT" and hung the phone up in my face. I just do not understand how a place like this can stay in business. I think we should boycott this place. If you cannot take care of your regular customers then you shouldn't be in business. THIS PLACE SUCKS BAD!!! I guess I will go to Honey Pig or the other authentic Korean food places around town. People there are other places that are better than this place and cleaner. This place should be out of business.

Pretty good-not great-Korean food but pricey for a weekend lunch. ($86 with tip for 2 adults and 2 toddler). Fried dumplings and pancake were very good. Bulgulgi and noodles were average.

Ernest Russell

One of my favorite restaurants on the planet. Killer kimchi jigae, Doo Bo Kimchi bok um. Oh yea, they're open till 3 A.M.

Tim Wang

Fantastic spot for food any time of day.

Christopher Boyer

Alison Park-Lo Grande

When I want a delicious meal at the latest time possible this is truly a reward, for over the past 15 years.

Maurice Good

I love the food here

Dan Hewitt

Good food, good drink selection. Very authentic, relatively quiet and enjoyable atmosphere. This place was open when the bar I was in closed, and it was a pleasant surprise when we checked it out!

kcs7615

So delicious! Love their food!

j k

i am korean... this is supposed to be a korean restaurant. this is on my list of some of the worst korean food EVER please.. this is NOT korean food... its just bad food

Aaron Pressman

Best Korean food in the city

Chankyu Lee

평점 믿고 방문했다가 충격받았습니다. 한국음식은 이렇게 짜고 맛없지 않습니다.

tom e

Excellent authentic Korean food. It's the best...these are the little sides and an order of house made, pan fried dumplings. Get a hot stone bowl with beef or pork.

errol moore

Love the food, not what I expected, but was pleasantly surprised

Heather Sorce

Excellent Korean food and cute place. Worth the drive from Hershey, PA. We'll be back!

Kevin Moore

Inexpensive delicious authentic Korean food open till 4 a.m.

Taylor Cramer

Amazing cosey little Korean BBQ restaurant amazing food the nicest staff and an incredible selection of Korea Japanese and Chinese dishes love the dol bap and flowerd beef every time I come back to my hometown this is on my list

George Wills Jr

Little, dingy hole in the wall place. Food was just okay, not as good as I remembered. Used to be a vibrant Korean culture here, not much anymore. It's a real shame that these establishments have left our neighborhoods. Saw a lot of boarded up buildings where homes and businesses used to be.

Naye Kim Sanchez

Food came out really fast and was so delicious! Service was also great! Definitely coming back :)

Chris Lins

They're open till 4am! What more do you need?? The food was delicious and I loved the small brick interior. The little old woman serving us was RUNNING at 3 am to serve 4 tables.

Matthew S

A little hidden gem. Food was very tasty, and we went super late (like 3am) and they were still open!

JGIDDINS

I just went to this place and was told no they don't have noodles no they don't have shrimp no they don't have any dish that could accommodate what I was looking for the woman who work there care not to even find out what I like to eat she simply handed me a menu placed her hands behind her back and turned around and ignored me answering no to any questions I asked until I left. I was like geez I didn't know Korean people were racist against black people LOL. Needless to say don't spend your money or go somewhere else in my opinion

Aaron Weitzman

Awesome

Alys Keretses

Amazing food and service!

Josh Harrison

Great authentic Korean food, awesome portions, a little pricey outside of lunch but worth it!

Jimmy Rogers

Very nice place for something open so late. Tasty Korean food!

Tim Jurasevich

For being one of Baltimore's alleged "best" Korean restaurants I was not too impressed. Maybe this is 4 or 5 stars worthy when looked at in a Baltimore-only bubble, but you can do much better if you're willing to leave the city a bit. Baltimore's Asian food has consistently disappointed me almost without fail and this place continued that trend. Perhaps my buddy and I ordered the "wrong" things but what we received was definitely not worth the price.

Aaron Gray

Excellent food and service. I've been meaning to go there for sometime and finally went there for lunch. Great portions. I'll return for sure.

Ryan Marker

Food is outstanding

dk kim

Both Korean and Japanese food here are delicious.

Alexander Enten

Love it here

Pong Cho

(Translated by Google) I like the miso stew. It's nice. I go to eat the miso stew from time to time after work. (Original) 된장찌개 가 참 맛있어요 친절하고요 저는 일 끝나고 가끔 가서 된장찌개 을 먹고 갑니다

Joe

Used to be awesome, but in the last year or so, it has gone down hill, both in service and food!

George Browning

Great place to eat. Delicious food that served on time at the reasonable price. I love their customer service, you can never be disappointed with their service. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Kelsey Younce

Veggie fried rice is to die for. Go-to spot for after hours food. It's a hidden gem.

Calvin Garner

Great late night spot for good Korean food.

Irene Smith

This is my favorite restaurant in Baltimore. We always get chicken dol Bab. It's literally the perfect dish.

Zachary Wiechert

Best Korean food in Baltimore! Prices are good and the food is better. Definitely going to become my families new regular spot.

Tye Irby

Ok

Tony Shi

Good Korean food. Quasi authentic. But good enough. Try the seafood pancake.

Mo Trillion

Very friendly service. The food was delicious and plentiful. I enjoyed dining there every time.

ZingoDev

Great service. Amazing food. Always exited for the food!

Randy Meldron

Love this place. Great korean food with family style sides. Love the fact that they're open late.

britt bryant

Mom and Pop shop that never fails to please. Whether busy or slow, the food is consistent and tasty and come out quickly. Service is always the same; friendly and with hustle! Nice cozy basement spot. If the door is locked, ring the bell. They stay open late but keep security in mind.

Ravi Kumar

This place the best korean food near downtown at a very reasonable price. It's in the basement of a building, but don't let the outside food you... Go here and you'll go again and again and again.

StaZIi YMk

My favorite go to spot YUMMM!

Devin Wilson

Delicious crispy rice at the bottom of a hot stone bowl.

Jason Burns

best bulgogi and fried dumplings in bmore

Muhammad Ali Yousuf

Clean. Good food

bob lange

Nam Kang is always awesome. I have been here many times over the years with a variety of folks and everyone has loved it! Friendly service and a reasonable price!

Hannah

Food was delicious and served with a sizzle! I've not had a lot of Korean food, but what I was introduced to tonight was packed full of flavor and heat! Small eats dishes came out almost right after ordering and were delicious. Mix of cucumber, broccoli, potato salad, kimchi style dishes. Entrees served bubbling hot in dramatic fashion! Portions are large. Service was very fast and friendly. Giving 4 stars instead of 5 only because it is a bit pricey. I would definitely recommend!

James DeShazo

Great food and definitely reasonable prices but best of all, open late/early, depending on how you look at it.

Gaia Street

Most affordable Korean in the area and still an old institution in the community. Good lunch specials and open late night but ideal for Bbq dishes

Brian Crossman

Wonderful food and excellent portions

Kylie Abegg

Food was delicious but the prices are high. Be prepared to pay around $15-$20 a person.

Ricky Bain

Good service. Food ok. Bathroom needs cleaning

Hannah Faircloth

The food was fantastic and the portions are very generous! Best of all the staff are so nice and accommodating. Will definitely come again!

Tim King

One of my favorite restaurants in Baltimore and definitely my favorite Korean one. Their banchan can't be beat, especially if you ask for the weird stuff. One lady runs most of the service and she is so so nice! Dishes are always awesome and just as spicy as you request. It's open super late and you can get drinks with your meal. LOVE IT!!!

Eli Omega

Amazing kimchi that they bring out before your food is ready. Dol bab and bolgogi are wonnerful for a carnivore such as my self.

Carlo LaGuerre

What is there not to like

Toriano Bullock

Once upon a time, they cared. Now, they don't.

Justin Lefkowitz

Great hot pot and excellent, friendly, service.

Angel Li

Absolutely horrible dining experience! Ranging from the service to the food. Opened 15 Minutes later than posted time. Really slow with taking our order and bringing drinks while we had to wait with a empty stomach. And no refills on sodas that cost $2! I ordered the pork bento box and the pork and sour and I couldn’t even swallow it! I asked the lady if I could change it into something else and she said that it’s fresh and they can’t change orders. I asked her to take a bite and she spit it out too. Than she finally agreed to change it into something that was not one week old. All the seafood in the seafood soup was rubbery but I didn’t want to make trouble so I just didn’t end up eating it. She forgot our rice and miso soup and I had to get up and look for her every time our dinning table needed something. And when we finished our food and was waiting for the check it never came. So I went up to the cash register to be rung up. She tried to force me to tip a certain amount when i was signing the ticket even though my family had a horrible experience. Honestly shocked at the service, and didn’t understand why I was force to write a certain amount when I didn’t enjoy the service at all. Will never go back again and DONOT recommend anyone going.

Isa

Amazing food!! Nice Restaurant. Really great customer service. I will definitely go back.

Vanna Smith

Good qaulity

kelli kensie

Nice place, delicious food! Service was a bit slow but there was only one person so it's ok. The fried dumplings were amazing!

Claire Dupree

Best Korean food in Baltimore- try the dol bab! The owner is incredibly sweet and they’re open late!

TR Douglas

Where even a non-adventurous eater can find a decent dish, although decor is a bit tacky.

Mike Shipway

Not crowded, despite very good food.

Myrtle Snow

Great saki

L Hoover

This restaurant serves traditional Korean, Japanese, and Chinese food. They open around 11 for lunch and dinner. Alcoholic beverages are available. It is cozy, suitable for families and business meetings. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food is very good and plentiful.

Mike Gaudiello

Delicious and fairly priced. The service was only average but that's fine for me. The atmosphere was quaint and small but cozy and comfortable.

Aayanna Divine

Absolute trash Korean food. Tastes like they use the toilet water for the soup. I grew up in South Korea and was disgusted that they even call this Korean cuisine. What an insult to my taste buds.

Kayon Allen

The owner is kind and the staff is friendly. The food was delicious!

James Anthony Sr

Great food and prices

Ivan Diaz

(Translated by Google) It is comfortable Koreama for those who like those types of dishes this restaurant is excellent good food good attentions and the prices are quite good and the place is well booked (Original) Es comoda Koreama para los que les gustan esos tipos de platos este restaurante es excelente buenas atenciones buena comida y los precios son bastante buenos y el lugar es bien reservado
