Across reviews for HANA Korean Steakhouse, the consensus highlights a solid premium experience with a great vibe, a beautiful space, and steaks that are flavorful and cooked to perfection from high quality meat. The service is generally attentive and professional, and the experience feels smooth, though being a new opening brings some coordination hiccups and occasional long gaps between courses. The format often centers on a chef's tasting with multiple beef cuts, appetizers, jigae with rice, and banchan, with the staff cooking the meat at the table and a selection of sauces and condiments served to taste. While many dishes are praised for tenderness and thoughtful pairings, some tasting menu items are viewed as underwhelming for the price and desserts or sides described as ordinary. Yet certain elements stand out, including dry aged beef grilled in a Korean BBQ style, the harmony of multiple sauces, and a particularly lauded doenjang jjigae, with reviewers also noting a promising potential and a willingness to return for the chef's menu on a special occasion.View restaurant profile
