Opened in May 2022, Goong Korean BBQ & Sushi brings the flavors of authentic Korean barbecue to Springville, Utah. This restaurant offers a menu featuring marinated meats cooked at your table on a grill, alongside a variety of sushi options.
This place is spectacular. Not only are their menu items creative and delicious, the atmosphere and the staff are top notch. Nan is the nicest human being you will ever meet. The Tuna tower is such a fun item, and it's really good! But my favorite is the BTS roll, if you love avocado, it is a must try. I see myself visiting this restaurant many times in the future and bringing my friends and family.

This place did not disappoint! Our waitress names Nan was awesome! Amazing customer service. She was so polite and had us try different foods i would probably not try. Now the food WOW! BEST KIMCHE AND SUSHI! We got the bento box, and it was amazing. All of the food we had was so fresh and so tasty! I highly recommend the fact that she took the time to know our names, which means a lot, we have a new place we are going to be eating at a lot! Don't walk run here to get some good Korean food! Highly recommend.

Everything we tried was really delicious. One of my favorite things I ate were their egg rolls. They make them homemade at the restaurant. The rice is great too. My husband LOVES all the meets that he has tried. Aside from all of this, the owners are beyond nice!!!! Nan is so wonderful!! She will take such good care of you.

We have returned here again and the food is still amazing. I ordered the Bibimbop (pictured below in bowl), and it was delicious; I was also jealous of our party member who ordered the tuna tower (pictured in review). Their sushi rolls are also delicious.
The service was high quality and pretty quick. I think we’ll start a tradition of coming here for a few birthdays and holidays.
The dessert was also delicious!

Food. Incredible. Side dishes. Sushi. Flavorful bulgogi.
Service. Amazing. So kind and welcoming. She wrote down our names to remember is when we come back.
This is my absolute favorite Korean restaurant now. The side dishes were delicious and they refilled them. My bibimbap was flavorful and so fresh. It was our anniversary so they gave us a special sushi roll. The flavor was out of this world. Fried with smooth melty avocado, crispy rice, crab and the sauce!
Their sushi is insanely good. Their Korean food is amazing. I talked to the owner and they combined. One of the owners used to run Sushi Ya in Orem and the other is a Korean chef.
Seriously run there now. Heads up though they aren't open on Sunday and Monday.
Also their lunch specials look amazing for really good prices.

I can't speak highly enough of this place. I took my daughter to lunch here for her birthday, and we both loved it. We went for lunch, and ordered the option where they cook the food right in front of you, and there is so much of it! The server was wonderful, and the chef even brought out a delicious dessert sushi for my daughter's birthday. I loved this place, and will definitely return.

Incredible artistic and fresh!! Best birthday dinner we have had in years. Nothing but positive thoughts. The chef is an artist!! Nan, our waitress was thoughtful, kind and knowledgeable!! She will happily guide you through the menu. I originally wanted the bbq fun but we were pleased to learn they offer sushi specials on Tuesdays and Wednesday!! As sushi and seafood lovers we had to start there. We tried quite a few savory house rolls. Each one unique and so well made. Even the baked mussels made us smile! My new go to Springville restaurant. I invite you to go and love them too!!! I chose this restaurant for my husband’s birthday and WOW they created the most inviting atmosphere and even sang happy birthday while making us feel like family by offering such incredible desserts. We cannot wait to go back.

Loved this place! Idk what the sauce was for the grilling meat but it was AMAZING! Another favorite was the BTS roll. Everything was just spot on. The waitress was kind and helpful, the food was awesome! (We ordered barbecue combo 3 along with a side of Katsu and a roll) Which was more than enough food for 3 adults and a toddler. And the table was a great size (usually tables with grills end up feeling cramped but not here!) and the facilities were nice and clean! Absolutely zero complaints! Would love to go here again! It also looked like they had some incredible lunch deals for a quick bite! Good for any budget.

Goong Korean BBQ is a very quaint, enjoyable, and downright delightful place to both take your loved ones to eat, and to eat on your own. The service was wonderful and i was explained how and what foods were the most flavorful when i asked. It is one of the best korean places i can go to and I heavily enoyed the food (Even though i dont usually prefer korean foods). I believe its well worth the price and is going be one of my most visited resturaunts

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
You cannot rate a place six stars but this place deserves it!
Goong is an absolute gem in Springville! While it’s known for its authentic Korean BBQ, the real star here is the sushi. Every roll is crafted with the fresh ingredients and incredible attention to detail. The Sundance Roll is a must-try—perfectly balanced, flavorful, and unforgettable. I often catch my self day dreaming of it.
What makes Goong even more special is the service. Nan is amazing—friendly, attentive, and always ready with great recommendations that just completes the amazing experience.

We went to Goong on a busy Friday night. We had a large group and the service was some of the best I've experienced in a long time. The food was also amazing. We had the bulgogi and stone bowl bimbimbap and it was all delicious and fresh. Even our little kids ate the rice, meat, and veggie tempura super well. It's hard to find a place that parents and kids can enjoy. We will definately be coming back.

We took a group of six adults to Goong Korean BBQ for our first visit, and wow, did they impress! The food was seriously delicious—the family combo had a little of everything, and every single dish was a winner. And Nan, our server, was just the best. She was so sweet and super helpful, making sure we had everything we needed and giving us the lowdown on each dish.
Only downside? We were a little squished (I only mention this if you’re thinking of bringing a large group). The booth was comfy but probably more easily navigated with four, so with six of us and a million plates, things got cozy fast. But honestly, that didn’t stop us from having a great time and loving every bite. Goong is definitely worth a visit if you’re craving awesome Korean BBQ. We can’t wait to go back!

On my recent visit to Goong Korean BBQ, I had the pleasure of trying their teriyaki chicken bento box, and it exceeded my expectations. The meal came beautifully presented in a sectioned container, making it easy to enjoy each component separately or together.
The highlight of the meal was the teriyaki chicken. The chicken was tender and juicy, cooked to perfection, and generously coated in a delicious teriyaki glaze that balanced sweetness and savoriness. The addition of sesame seeds and finely chopped green onions added a delightful texture and freshness to the dish. The portion size was ample, ensuring a satisfying dining experience.
The chicken was served over a bed of fluffy white rice, which soaked up the flavorful teriyaki sauce, creating a harmonious blend with every bite. The meal also included a side of pickled vegetables that provided a refreshing and tangy contrast to the rich chicken, and a small salad with a light, tangy dressing that added a crisp and refreshing element to the meal.
Overall, Goong Korean BBQ delivered an outstanding dining experience with their teriyaki chicken bento box. The quality of the ingredients, coupled with the expertly crafted flavors, made this dish a standout. I highly recommend this meal to anyone looking for a delicious and satisfying teriyaki experience.

I am from the SF Bay Area where there are lots of good Korean food and I can say that this is just as good. It's authentic Korean food. The owners are very friendly. The BBQ Combo definitely can feed more than two.

Very authentic Korean food. We had ox tail soup, bibinbap, and the stone bowl. We also watched others eating the grilled meats. All is like what I have eaten in Korea. The sides are what made the meal feel like a nice Korean meal to me.

The new ownership is awesome! Eating here is a completely different experience!
We got 2 of the Combo D to feed 10 adults and it was so much good food! We were so stuffed. The oxtail is especially delicious! So tender and an explosion of flavor!

Great food, service, and atmosphere. The food was amazing! I got the chicken bento plate. It was around $16 for a bunch of food. It came with rice, Teriyaki Chicken, a small salad, Korean vegetables, a California roll, potstickers, and a spring roll. It was very delicious, very filling, more than fairly priced.
By far the best part of my experience was the waitress Nen (I’m pretty sure she is one of the owners of the restaurant). She was so kind and passionate about the food. She was so passionate about the BTS sushi roll that she gave us some to try for free!
I will definitely be back to try more of their yummy food! Everyone should try this place!

I've been to several Korean restaurants over the years but this one is the best I've ever been to. It is now one of my favorite places ever. Be sure to get a barbeque meal where they cook the meat on a little grill built into your table, simply delicious. You will not go away hungry and the service was outstanding. On top of that, the sushi rolls are excellent with many new types you will want to explore. We got the Sundance roll which was a yummy twist with a bit of lemon on top, amazing!

I went to tonight for dinner with my wife's birthday.
I ordered some rolls,
and when I said it was also my wife's birthday,
the chef made something special.
It was such a touching moment.
The staff sang a birthday song for my wife.
Thank you for making memories today.
I will continue to visit you in the future. The food was delicious, too.
I appreciate it 🙏

We just discovered this gem, hidden over by Walmart, and I'm so glad we decided to go eat lunch today! The food was so good. We had the Sundance roll, BTS roll, spam musubi, and stone bowl bibimbops (which came with a delicious miso soup). Everything tasted great. We've been looking for a good place close to home to get stone bowls, and Goong delivered!
Nan was so kind and gave us some recommendations when we couldn't decide on a roll to try. The Sundance roll was salmon with lemon and ponzu sauce. The BTS roll was a quarter of avocado, tempura fried filled with crab and topped with a delightful crunchy topping and spicy mayo. Both were so good!
The stone bowl bibimbop came with a variety of side dishes, including kimchi, Korean potatoes, bean sprouts, and kimchi cucumber (which is my new favorite way to eat cucumbers!) the bowls were put together beautifully and everything tasted fresh.
The spam musubi was excellent. The spam was almost like candy.
We were so full when we left, we had to take boxes home with our leftovers (but I really can't wait for dinner!) thank you so much, Nan and team for a delicious meal experience. We will definitely be back!

Ordered sushi for lunch after seeing their signs advertising their lunch specials. SO good! The rolls were unique, nicely priced, and delicious. The service was amazing, the lady who helped me made me feel so welcome and answered all the questions I had! We look forward to coming back for dinner and their BBQ, but will definitely be back for more sushi soon. So grateful to have such a fantastic sushi I restaurant here in Springville!

My family went to Goong Korean BBQ last night in Springville and had an enjoyable meal. We ordered meat for two and had enough to share for all four of us. The Kimchi soup was amazing as well as the creamed corn. There were large side dishes of cucumber and cabbage kimchi, pickled radish, sprouts, and potatoes. Nan and staff were so kind as they chatted with us. We also ordered a dragon roll and spicy pork bulgogi. For dessert, there were mini cheesecakes.
Hands down the best Korean BBQ in the area. The price was so worth it. You will not be disappointed

We decided to come in on a whim for dinner and so glad we did. Little bit of a sticker shock with the prices of the bbq but we went for it and enjoyed it completely. There was so much food and it all came out so fast! Everything was delicious! The atmosphere was welcoming and clean. Above all the service was fantastic! Man (Nan sp?)our server was so kind and happy! She was very friendly and sociable. She brought out a rice and avocado roll for our 17 month old granddaughter and Chex mix later in the meal. The chef who cooked the meat at the table was friendly and explained different names and things about Korea. We will definitely be back. So glad we found this place!

I ate here three days ago and I'm still thinking about it; it was so good!
The food and value was amazing! I thought the cost was a little high at first but then we got our sides and extras (Korean small sideswere included at no extra cost) and then the main. Everything was high quality and delicious!
The people working there were so friendly and attentive and the chief went out of his way to make sure my wife enjoyed her bibimbap by specially preparing slightly different toppings, without being asked, because she asked to hold some other toppings. So much value for the money, we'll definitely be back.
We ate bugulgi and bibimbap

Glad we tried this place ! The rolls are delicious. They have a lot of them. We did not try the bbq but that looked good too. We shared three rolls the bts roll ota definitely different, if you love avocado it’s a must the flavors are amazing. We also tried the spicy salmon and spicy mango they were both so good, the flavor combination are on point. The chef also sent the lucky 🍀 roll to our table it did not disappoint. Service was amazing, the owner is so nice and helpful. Very clean place. Gotta add this place to my favorites.

The food was very good, the customer service alone was probably the best restaurant I’ve ever been to. The atmosphere was great. All questions were answered. The food was a little expensive the customer service was priceless.

Oh yeah, this place rules. The owners greeted us like we hadn’t seen each other in years despite us never having gone here before! They took the time to learn our names and provided impeccable service, seriously they’re so nice. And the food was top notch, I got the bibimbap in a stone bowl as well as the lucky roll and both were fantastic. My only complaint is that there wasn’t enough room in my stomach to finish everything 😂 Would highly recommend this place to anyone!!

Lovely place!! The food was amazing!!! So full of flavor, hot, fresh, and out in good time! Our server was very nice and tended to us well, she gave excellent recommendations and checked on us frequently.

This authentic Korean restaurant is a great new place. By far one of the best Korean restaurants I've been to. It opened last month. With regular dishes ranging in the $10-$30 range and the 2 person, 4 person and family combos ranging from $100-$230, there's something for everyone. The owners come from South Korea and have brought their cultural love of food to Utah. They get meat straight from the butcher so you get the cuts with the best flavor and locally fresh for every dish. Kimchi is usually too hot for me, but the Kimchi Soup was delicious and comes from soured (longer fermented) Kimchi. Who knew? We got the 2 person Beef Combo and while we are more experienced with Korean food, we got more than our monies worth. Enough leftovers for the next 3 days at least. The owners and staff are very friendly and excited for new customers. I can't recommend this place enough. Come with an empty stomach and leave with leftovers and a smile!

Service was quick and friendly. My party ordered the udon, the beef bulgogi, the BTS sushi, and bibimbap. All of it was great! They even gave us a free sushi roll that was also yummy. We were in and out in under an hour. Also the instrumental oldies music was such a fun touch!

We were greeted with a big smile and it just got better from there. Such sweet, kind and loving people. They made us feel like family. And the food, oh my goodness was so so good. We are already planning to go back and bring our kids this time. Please go try it! We got sushi rolls and pot stickers. We plan to try the meat next time.

We just ate at Goong and the food was amazing. The meat had very good flavor and the sides were good as well. It is all very high grade and very well-seasoned. The owners are very nice and friendly. It is definitely worth driving to Springville to eat here, even from Salt Lake.

I went for dinner, they have pretty awesome sushi options, I thought it was just another sushi place, nothing awesome, but their sushi is amazingly delicious, nothing like the taste of fresh food and good mix with a great atmosphere and our waitress Nan with took care of us, Recommended, THIS IS NOT A CONVENTIONAL SUSHI PLACE

Despite being a Korean BBQ joint, the Sushi here is top notch. The utah roll(spicy) and monkey brain are must haves. Nen the waitress/owner is so kind and enthusiastic, you can't help but smile and be filled with joy when she comes to check on you at your table. We really loved the food and enjoyed our experience here. The location is a bit hard to notice being on the edge of Springville, but it is so worth the visit. We will be back for sure

The photos don't do it justice but they kept bringing out more and more!
It was all so incredible! The oxe tail soup had the best broth I've ever tasted in my life. And all the meats were very delicious! Also don't miss out on the kimchi soup!
The owners and staff are so friendly and remembered several members of our party from previous times in.
Could not recommend highly enough!!

Awesome place. The Food and flavor were great. The combo dinner for 2 was very filling. And unlike other Korean BBQ you can take home your leftovers. They've added sushi as well which also comes with the combo all the food was great. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating

We were hesitant to try Goong based on recent reviews saying it had changed owners and wasn’t as good as before. So glad we tried it! We’ve had Korean bbq before but nothing has ever been this good. Everything was amazing, the meats, the side dishes, sushi, and service!
This is not an all you can eat, but it is unlikely you will finish what is provided, and you can take it to go. We went with our 2 teenage kids and got the Family Combo, we all ate until we couldn’t anymore and had plenty of leftovers.
The service was incredible; happy, helpful, and attentive.
Don’t let new owners discourage you from going, they are great.
We will be back! We are excited to return and try some of their individual options.
Favorites from the meal: kimchi soup, cheesy corn, kalbi ribs, pork belly, bulgogi, and brisket.
Statement of the evening “That was so good!”
