Kimganae Korean Restaurant

Note: Other reviews here mention poor ingredients like how the spicy tuna is unexpectedly canned tuna and are complaining about it, or have complaints about other ingredients. I'd like to point out that lots of Korean food contains canned tuna, canned sausages, spam, American cheese etc because of the shelf stable US Army rations that were available in Korea at the time. So don't be surprised when you find them on the menu here. It makes for delicious, authentic Korean food. If you don't like it, it's silly and ignorant to leave a bad review simply because they are making Korean food how it's meant to be made. Original Review: This place is amazing. The food is delicious and fresh tasting. The menu has so much that I want to come back and try. They give you a delicious savory soup before your meal which is great for a rainy day. The service was attentive and quick. Highly recommend this spot!

I used to really love this restaurant, the tuna roll is my favorite. And then I brought my friend yesterday . We also multiple roll(Kimbap) but then I realized the rest rolls are so awful, except the tuna roll. My friend ordered an eel roll, because eel is expensive and they don’t want the roll become too small, so they added a crab meat inside, which took the flavor of eel, and is no longer taste like a eel roll. And we also order a cheese rice cake, it’s not spicy and it’s too light, I would expect much stronger than it was. Pork cutlet is also very light. I expected much more than that. I will only come back for the tuna roll.

Comfortable spot for Korean comfort food that’s somewhat inexpensive compared to nearby spots. I love their bibimbap and kimbap. I used to come here often when I lived in Queens. This last time I just stopped in early for some dukboki. It was alright, I think the rice cakes were a bit tough, but otherwise, delicious.

Been here twice so far. First time was last year and I got spicy pork over rice, my friends got their sweet potato pork cutlet and beef over rice. We all agreed the food was ok, nothing stood out and flavor kind of meshed together. Waiter was really nice, but because we were seated outside, it was difficult to get their attention. The assistance button didn't seem to work. Gave them another try recently, this time to go and I like my hamburger steak dish! The hamburger and sauce it came with was well seasoned.

Amazing spot for casual Korean comfort foods. The portions are huge. We got the spicy tuna roll, which is not raw tuna - interesting and filling menu item! The dumpling ramyun (spicy ramen soup and pork dumplings with egg) and cheese dukboki (rice cakes like gnocchi with fish cakes, spicy sauce and cheese on top) were both amazing.

Pictured here is the Shrimp Tempura Udon, the Kimganae Special and the Pork Katsu. From what I can tell, I believe their gravy sauce is tomato based, it's not overly salty, and it has a nice sweetness to it. The special includes their Hamburg, pork Katsu and fish Katsu. I wish there was just a little bit more rice provided in these dishes, but that's just me liking rice. This restaurant is really popular with high school and college kids. It's affordable, quick and you can't go wrong with unlimited soup and radish kimchi. It's not the best Korean restaurant in Flushing but it's a solid meal.

I’ve been coming here since they opened the very FIRST time and it’s been a while to see this restaurant improve and do better. I don’t enjoy as much as I used to but it feels nostalgic to go back and try out new things they add. In times of inflation of course we see price raise a lot than compared to other korean restaurants nearby but again they’re known and have the popularity. But at the end of the day you get greeted by good service and the food is good as always!
