Maht Gaek Korean Restaurant, Grilled Pork Ribs

Fantastic Healthy Korean restaurant in Plano. I just happened upon it-- stopped in and was very glad I did. The atmosphere is modern and inviting. I ordered the Bibim bop with tofu instead of beef which came with a tasty, fresh, array of healthy vegetables including: carrots, zucchini, bean sprouts, seaweed, radish with a fried egg on top. The small dishes: cucumber salad, kim chi, eggplant and fish cakes were to die for. Stephanie, my server, brought me extras because she could see that I scarfed the sides down quickly, especially the delicious eggplant and cumber salad. Everything was fresh, healthy, and perfectly seasoned. I appreciated the generous portions and so much color. I can't wait to go back and try other dishes.

If you're a fan of Korean BBQ, you have to try this place. The grilled pork rib with soy sauce is hands-down the best I've had. It's so tender, juicy, and packed with flavor, and it comes with all the classic side dishes. The hot stone bowl bibimbap is another standout dish that I highly recommend. The restaurant is clean, the service is top-notch, and it's a great spot to bring the family.

First time here and my friend recommended the Spicy Pork Ribs. We informed the waitress when we ordered to make them as spicy as possible. I tend to be an extreme pepper-head. The waitress brought me my lunch and I tasted. There literally was no spice to me whatsoever. She took them back to the kitchen and in a short time brought them back out. Now there was some nice spice but on a Thai spice scale, maybe a 2!!! The waitress told me to wait just a moment and came back with a ‘secret sauce’ that made the edges of my tongue numb. Oh! I’m talking in a fantasy world way that one only dreams of!!! Kudos to our wonderful waitress for a wonderful experience!!!

Pork ribs were phenomenal. Must try. Other items were okay didn’t stand out much. Service and atmosphere were good.

Quickly seated although they were busy. Food came out fast. Good portion. Thoughtful to have pre-packed sauces if you want to take any leftovers to go.

Stephanie was super great!!! The food was amazing as well, nice spice. Hot Pot feeds 2-4 depending on how much you can eat.

January 2025. Highly recommended this Korean BBQ place with flavorful grilled pork ribs. The side dishes were amazing delicious as well. Even though, the squid’s was quite spicy but all of us enjoyed all our selection. Will love to return soon.
