At Dons Bogam, the food is fantastic and service indulgent. From the festive bar up front right down to those two-tops sporting blazing grills, every seat is filled, so reserve ahead. Make no mistake: this is no average K-town joint. Inside, a top-notch venting system lets diners enjoy a smoke-free evening of exceptional grilled meats. Start with fried pork mandu, which are on-point and divine. Pork belly marinated in red wine is smoky and supremely tender, but for the ultimate payoff, opt for the beef platter. It features thinly sliced maeun and yangnyeom galbi set beside meaty king trumpet mushrooms. In Midtown for meetings? Pop in for the BBQ lunch, a fun and interactive midday meal that is leaps above a quick grab-and-go salad, yet just as healthy.
