Mashita Galbi Jjim

It’s my first time here today, my mom and I are both very satisfied with our impromptu dinner. We ordered the Galbi Jjim in medium spicy. The portion is very generous, the standard serving already included cheese, rice cake, glass noodles, and plenty of radish-carrots-potatoes! The meat was tender and flavorful, perfectly cooked and served on a cold winter night. We had leftover for another meal. ✌🏼

Genuinely excellent and a serious rival to Daeho( without the crazy wait times!). The short ribs are braised to "fall-off-the-bone" perfection and served in massive, bubbling portions. Comes with a standard, generous cheese topping that is torched table-side for that signature smoky, gooey finish.

We ordered the Spicy Galbi Jjim and had to wait ~20 minutes for it. They offered mild, medium, spicy, very spicy spice levels. It was delicious and had a nice kick of heat. The cheese was included, and they added flat glass noodles to the usual rice cakes, carrots, and potatoes. I would have preferred it to be more saucy, but overall, it was a solid Galbi Jjim minus the wait. The Soy Glaze wings were nice and crunchy, but I would have liked them better if they were coated with more sauce. Not to mention, this is the most generous portion of odeng banchan I’ve ever received! Good sour kimchi to balance the Galbi Jjim as well.

I had a really nice experience. Everything was fast and delicious, even during rush hour. The atmosphere was super chill, and the bathroom was very clean!

I visited Mashita Galbi Jjim on a Sunday evening around 6 PM with a party of four, and to my surprise, there was no wait—we were seated right away. With only two staff members working the floor, the restaurant still managed a steady rhythm of service. The space itself is inviting, with a high ceiling that makes it feel airy, a clean bathroom (always a plus), and a generally cozy environment that sets the stage for a comfortable meal. For food, we ordered two dishes: the pork tonkatsu and their signature galbi jjim. The tonkatsu arrived quickly, golden and crispy, delivering the kind of satisfying crunch and savory bite you’d expect from a well-executed cutlet. The galbi jjim, however, was a different story. It took about 30 minutes to reach our table, which seems to be the norm based on o
