Let me set the stage for you: it is 1pm on a hot Saturday afternoon. I come to Tree Garden with my entire Viet family, starved and ready to eat some authentic Korean food. By the end of this experience, I leave mistreated, humiliated, and very upset. I have never been treated this obscenely in my entire life. We had ordered 5 dishes - one including the Galbi Beef. The waitress took our order and, in broken English, told us that this certain dish cost $18.99. We agreed upon this and ordered a portion. Upon receiving the beef, the portion sizing was extremely small (received 9 slices of beef total, as displayed in the photo by the number of bones on the platter). Not wanting to complain, we decided to eat it, despite the $18.99 price. After finishing our meal, we receive the check, only to find out that we were charged $38.99 - a WHOPPING $20 upcharge. When we brought this up to the waitress, her tone immediately became argumentative and condescending. We tried to be reasonable for what we were given in the first place, but the refusal to elaborate on the extra charge was unacceptable and dishonest as a business. Looking back, the fact that this business did not have many customers during a weekend lunch rush is truly telling not just of their food quality, but, now as I've witnessed, of their terrible service as well. If you are considering eating at this restaurant, expect to be scammed out of your money and treated like garbage when you try to point it out.
“Overall, my experience was thoroughly enjoyable. The service was marked by a genuinely friendly and attentive waitress who contributed to the welcoming atmosphere. Each dish was thoughtfully crafted and delivered with balanced, tasteful flavors. It’s a charming spot that I would confidently recommend to anyone looking for a pleasant and satisfying dining experience.
This might be my favorite Korean spot in HTX! My friends and I wanted a nice hearty meal late at night and thankfully Tree Garden is open until midnight so we decided to give this spot a try. There was plenty of parking and we were surprised to be the only ones to be in the restaurant on a Friday night. We ordered the following: Seafood Pancake Perfectly crispy with a good amount of seafood. I’ve been to numerous Korean places in HTX and wasn’t too impressed with this specific dish but Tree Garden does it well! Marinated Beef Short Ribs w/buckwheat noodles I love that this restaurant offers this combo and I’d highly recommend this if you’re craving both noodles and some protein! The noodles were so satisfying and they have slices of asian pear in it that adds a nice juicy, refreshing touch to the dish. The beef ribs were tender, savory, and full of flavor. Seafood Pure Tofu Hot Pot This was the star of the show in my opinion. My group had 4 people including me and we each got a large bowl. The broth was so delicious and with the silken tofu and seafood, this was our favorite dish of the night. Aside from the dishes we ordered, the banchan was fresh and delicious! Our favorite was the green beans which were savory and had a little bit of a kick to it. The ajuhmas working here were very friendly and did an amazing job at serving- we really appreciate how they served our bowls of soup and took care of the leftovers in to-go boxes. And at the very end of the meal, they serve Sikhye. Looking forward to coming back and trying everything else!
Our experience was Tree Garden was quite good. The pancake and the soups were great. The sides were delicious too. Service was courteous and attentive.
Overall the food was pretty good but today it lacked much flavor. I wish the bulgogi was cooked long and with more sauce to bring out the flavor. The sides were pretty good but nothing stood out. The soup was probably the highlight with a salty kimchi flare. The lunch special is at a good price! I wish I tried the bbq instead. The staff were super nice and helpful.
