Hae Kum Gang

Hae Kum Gang in Ashok Nagar is a quaint, cozy little place, perfect for a quick Korean sojourn. Both the ambience as well as the menu have an old Korean charm. It sits pretty in aesthetics, service and quality of food. Since we’ve frequented this place many times, the dishes that we can absolutely vouch for on any given day are - Bbq in stone hot pot - with chicken, beef or pork, all taste great Dolshot bibimbap with beef or chicken Chicken and Tuna Kimbap
Chicken Cutlet Shrimp fritters Dragon Shrimp roll are must try. Kimchi Fried Rice Chicken Salmon Roll An added feature is the delicious side dishes of Kimchi, Pickled Vegetables, Pickled Bean Sprouts, etc. that are complimentary, and the staff is also always very generous to refill it when asked. All in all, a recommended spot for your Korean cravings with a lot of repeat value.

We visited this place during lunch hours. Place becomes very crowded during peak hours. Very neatly maintained place with lively ambience. I liked every dish I tried but felt like chicken in main dish is not so fresh. They give you Banchan in the beginning and I liked potatoes in sweet soy sauce. Every dish has generous portion so you have to keep this in mind before ordering. Rice here has a very good addictive taste and goes well with all the main dishes. Chicken Cutlet, Shrimp fritters and dragon shrimp roll are must try. I felt Mocktails were too sweet and the syrup they use overpowers the drink. Staff here are very friendly and helpful. They accept card and UPI payment methods. I recommend this place to people who want to try korean cuisine.

Watched many Korean dramas and was always intrigued as to what Korean food was all about! Hae Kum Gang provides authentic flavours for enthusiasts like me! So if you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to taste Korean food check this place out! Other than all the food we ate here, a special mention to the mango drink which is definitely a must try!

Food-wise? Yummmmayyy!!! At that moment, you could eat hundreds of the Kimbap. Chewy and savoury. Eat one, eat two, eat three, eat... The Soondubu is something you'd always order when you head out to any Korean restaurant. This stew was full of juicy mixtures, like squid, clam, mushroom, and egg. It's not so spicy that you can't handle it. The Samgyeopsal came in a literally sizzling plate. Grilled pork belly is a safe(and wise) choice. Wrapping the slices in lettuce, veggies, salty lard, and sauce, makes you and your belly happy. The menu could've had more dishes. Price-wise? Reasonable enough. Keeping in mind the unique cuisine and taste, the prices are justified. Ambience- and -interior-wise? The place wasn't as packed as expected. That's a plus point for those who like quiet places. Quiet and privacy-positive, good place to eat at. The interior may not be to everyone's taste, but it's quirkiness, especially the antique-looking chairs, give out a feel-good vibe. Pictures of Korean food are hung up on the walls for you to drool over as you wait for your own food. The only thing for Hae Kum Gang to work on is the staff. Barely had eye-contact while bringing in the menus or the food. Upon calling one of them to place orders, two of them nudged each other(you go, no, you go, no, no, you) to come to the table. Bottom line? Recommended place for delicious food and antique/weird-looking chairs.
