Nestled in the vibrant heart of Paris at 42 rue Blomet, Bong offers an authentic Korean culinary experience that transports diners straight to Seoul. This bustling restaurant is renowned for its rich flavors, warm atmosphere, and a menu that celebrates traditional Korean dishes with a modern twist. Whether you're craving a comforting bowl of soybean paste soup or expertly grilled meats, Bong promises a memorable dining adventure that delights the senses.

If you're abroad and missing mom's cooking, I would suggest this place. My family and I enjoyed it so much we visited two days in a row.

The soybean paste soup was my favorite, not too salty or bland. Surprisingly, the kimchee was good too. You know it's a good Korean restaurant if the kimchee is on point. 

The staff were extremely friendly and it is highly suggested to make a reservation. This place gets packed!

Highly recommended.

BooBoo and I were suppose to go a  vietnamese place around the corner but they were cash only so we came to the backup Bong.
Its a legit Korean spot not too much French influence in the food. No baguette with the banchan. I did notice wine fridge in the dining area. 

We shared the grilled mackerel, i got the tofu soup and Booboo got the beef stew/soup. Really tasty and as good as Murica's or Korean food. 

Ventilation needs work. The place had a few tables that got KBBQ and our clothes and hair smelled like grilled beef ribs after we left. I know you ladies have to time your hair washing days. If come you best be washing your hair that night.

We had dinner here tonight after being in Europe for almost a month and what a delight!  We were craving Korean BBQ and this place hit the spot!  We loved the price, very reasonable... well at least for us, we are from Southern California and the price of food has gone up so much so this was delicious and very reasonable pricing.  They give you 된장찌게 (Korean bean paste soup) if you order their top meats.  Everything was delicious and I ordered their house Sauvignon which paired well for everything ^^. I am Korean and I proudly and completely approve this restaurant:)
Bon appetite!!

While in Paris, I was craving Korean food and did a yelp search. Bong was one of the top results and I was willing to splurge a little. The food was delicious and the banchan were amazing! It was so wonderful to be able to have comfort food in Paris. The service was okay, pretty standard French service. 

Make a reservation online, as it tends to fill up. Still unsure if you're supposed to wait near the front or go to the bar when entering, didn't see a sign or anything (I know, total American tourist move).

If you're looking for Korean comfort food, check out Bong! It's also a fun place to drink/do some work socialization (Korean style).

Not bad. And yet, not memorable.

The bottom line: fair price for the quality and quantity that we got but I'm sure there are better places in Paris.

We started with an assortment of tempura battered and fried veggies and shrimp served with soy sauce... meh. After having the ones from Kunitoraya (see my review) these were amateurish at best.

The BBQ on the grill in front of us was on par. Nothing spectacular but good enough. We had 2 orders of the entrecôte, 1 côté de boeuf, and 1 duck.  This was recommended by a Korean friend as the things they do best here and not to bother with anything else.  It of course came with unlimited sides that you can see in all the pictures.  My favorite was the kimchi. Spicy and pickled just right.

I had my first experience with fermented rice drink which is like a sweet beer with 6% alcohol. Not bad.  (10Euro)
There is a good selection of soju and other Korean drinks starting at 14 euro.

Expect to leave smelling like oil and smoke but what did you expect if you're in a Korean BBQ?

A few years ago, my friends and I were wandering around the neighbourhood looking for food because the place we were going to was closed. We passed by Bong and smelled the delicious bbq and saw how full the restaurants is, but when we went in, we were told the restaurant is too full and they wouldnt seat us. We stood outside with our depressing faces trying to figure out what to do and this nice korean gentleman who was smoking outside decided to tell us how great the restaurant is and how we have to eat there. When we told him it's full, he said "oh...okay but next time you come!" 

I haven't had the chance to go until now, for lunch. My friend made the reservation and we got their bulgogi lunch menu. It was every bit as good as i imagineed it wouldl be. I'm looking forward to coming back for their dinner one day.

Wow! Wow ! Wow ! I loved this place ! By far the best food I have had in Paris . Server brings you the protein and you do the rest. A compliment of almost 10 sides , rice, soup and salad? Can't beat that. But honestly , the flavor is so delicious I'm already thinking about coming tomorrow . What an experience ! I would highly recommend trying this spot . Delicious !

Excellent Korean BBQ, with vegetables even more tasty than the meat. Actual Korean chefs make it even better.
Caveats : can be quite noisy if the place is full, and ventilation is not ideal.

This place is "somewhat" authentic Korean.  Given that given it's Paris I can see how it could get four stars.  It's run by Koreans but if you've had Korean food in The US or Korea you'll be disappointed.  The dishes like bibimbap and yuk ge jang were fakes, the worst of those dishes we ever ate in our whole lives; absolutely not the real dishes.  They can get away with it because Parisians don't know to expect better.  They were mixing soy sauce in bibimbap for a guest.  (What??!) but that could be because the dish was just bad Korean and tasted horrible. 

The BBQ was slightly better.  The galbi was just ok.  But the pork wasn't even spicy like it should be.   We also had upset stomachs are eating here so perhaps the meat wasn't the freshest. 

Pros:  unlimited side dishes were normal and if you're in Paris, sadly, it might be the best Korean-like food available.  The side dishes were probably the best thing about the restaurant. 

Cons:  fake Koreans entree dishes. Didn't even taste close to the real dishes or have the needed ingredients.  

Disgraceful that fellow Koreans are marketing this food as authentic Korean.  Again if you've had Korean food anywhere else you'll be disappointed.  Don't have high expectations for Korean food when coming here and you'll be just fine.  If you really need a Korean fix then, sure, come here.

I visited Bong, a Korean BBQ restaurant in Paris, recently and it was pretty authentic. My main concern is that the price is quite high, but then again I have been to Korea before so that does affect my thinking.

Price aside, the waiter we had also spoke Chinese, and they have English, Chinese, and Japanese in addition to the Korean and French. This helps a lot with ordering.

They have Korean beers as well, which is a plus.

The food came pretty quickly, and they had a good crowd and even a few people waiting when I went on that Thursday evening for dinner. Note: this place is good for Korean BBQ which tends to have different kinds of meat, so if you are a vegetarian you may have a limited menu.
