Hansang - West Melbourne

Went the second time to here, hands down side dishes are just amazing. Tried spicy beef soup which was super duper spicy. Lol should have believed them when they say spicy. Also tried this fish stew which was very fishy, fish was nice and soft and felt a lot like homecooked. Seafood pancake was beautiful. We weren’t unable to finish the dishes so we took some home and it only costed us $25 for a dinner so that was really good value.

For family style Korean dining, Hansung is worth coming to with a small group.<br/ <br/ A lot of Korean restaurants might give you 2 3 side dishes, but Hansung will stock you up with like, 10 side dishes of different varieties. I could just have a small bowl of rice and side dishes and be happy.<br/ <br/ The grilled mackerel was delicious, naturally oily and slightly salted from a curing process. <br/ <br/ Kimchi Jjigae spicy, acidic and warming stew, it had a good depth of flavour.<br/ <br/ It's comforting to see many Korean locals frequenting the restaurant as well.<br/ <br/ Come here for an authentic Korean experience!

An authentic Korean eatery with a subdued kind of vibe. Definitely seems like the chefs take a lot of care in what they do. The spicy chicken stew was not as spicy as advertised, rather the spice was tastefully and evenly distributed, with a very deep, rich chicken flavour. Not the typical watery soup with sandy chilli powder that other Korean joints purvey. Bulgogi was not too rough or chewy, with good flavour. The zucchini pancake was crisp and thin, very satisfying. Perhaps slightly oily but not overpoweringly so.Ample rice was provided for all members of the table, and special mention should go to the side dishes which are each well-crafted and a cut above other rival places.

Given a table with just one dim light in the corner so ambience was not great. However, food was delicious! The side dishes are tasty and theres so much food you'll be so full!! Main dishes are wonderful especially the spicy pork. Kimchi soup provided is just ok but honestly super good value anyway.

One of the best Authentic style korean restaurants with a family run vibe. So many nice things on the menu, lots of little plates with different things to try, a really fun way to eat. Staff are friendly and the place was really clean. Recommend giving this place a go!
