M Hansik

We went on opening night and were absolutely dazzled by the creativity and flavors delivered by Michael Lee and his team. To top it off, staff were incredibly kind and warm. I can't wait to go back to try more things from the menu. We loved the bibimbap paella, blood sausage, duck wraps (platter of 9 delicacies), Korean BBQ ribs (Kalbi), mero kui sea bass was perfection and do not skip on the pat bingsoo (Korean shaved ice) and black sesame ice cream. We loved it so much, I had to go back and tried to cold perilla noodles which were so refreshing and flavorful, the fried chicken and bulgogi. All fantastic!

Definitely very unique for a Korean restaurant. Drinks, starters, entrees, and dessert were all enjoyable. Not sure why they have sake and not soju though. Definitely don’t skip on the fried chicken or kimchi dumplings. The paella and lasagne were great but could be executed much better. Pork belly and Wagyu shabu shabu was amazing.

I’ve been to several of the M restaurants, this one is up on the list. Service and ambiance was great, the place was a bit hard to find from the outside though.

Had the pleasure of trying the newly opened M Hansik, the latest from the M restaurant collection — elevated Korean fine dining that still stays true to its roots. You could tell they put a lot of thought into the decor and the presentation, from the space itself to the plating of every dish. All the food was delicious, but the standouts to me were the fried chicken, the bokeum bap paella, and a phenomenal black sesame ice cream. Highly recommend. 🇰🇷

I've been there 3times, All of friends who went there together liked foods and experience there.

reservations for 8:15pm and we were sat at 8:27pm, not a big deal since hostesses told us they were still figuring things out after only being opened for 5 wks and diners seemed to enjoy hanging out past the 2 hour mark. Took our waiter over 10 minutes to come to our table after we sat down, and throughout the visit, we waited on service and/or had to get staff attention more than we were waited on. Very disappointing. Also, our waiter had really bad breath that made it difficult to stomach the interactions we had. We spent more time here than expected because service was extremely slow for an establishment of this size.

We love dinning out a few times a month and looked forward to trying this new addition to the bull city, which was explained to us to be an elevated take on Korean food from the owners of M Sushi restaurants. We started with the Fried chicken (which I saw was accidentally taken to another table and then brought over to ours). I would usually ask for something fresh that has not been sat down at another table for others to talk over but we quickly discovered that wait times to be seated had nothing to do with guests wanting to hang out but from extremely long wait times from the kitchen. We were hungry so I didn't make a big deal about it, as by this time it was already 9pm when we were served the fried chicken. Fried Chicken 1/5 and 1 for the flavors, as this was the first time we had korean fried chicken with chewy skin underneath the lightly fried breading, no crunch at all. Beef Short Ribs 2/5 for the concept and the taste of our second serving. Our first serving of beef short ribs were cold to the touch and shocked us when we put the first piece in our mouth. Not sure what happened between our wait time for this dish and the hot stone it was served on. We were apologized to and had to wait even longer for the situation to be fixed. Second serving was much smaller than the first serving which was very obvious. Cold noodles 2/5, one of my favorite korean dishes and just like the fried chicken, huge disappointment as I've had better every where else.

We were offered free dessert for the inconvenience of the beef short ribs being cold but that was a slap in the face. The beef short ribs should've definitely been taken off the check. So customer service 2/5, and deserts were not good (after waiting another 10 minutes for them), and because of how things were handled, we won't be back. M Hansik has the potential of the elevated vibe it's claiming to be but missed the mark. Drinks unimpressive when you view the drink menu (pictured my spiced bae martini) and my martini glass wasn't filled compared to another guest I saw drinking the same thing, which is why I ordered it. Imagine my surprise when I received my $18 cocktail.

My husband and I were so happy we didn't order more like we wanted to and stuck to trying a few things out first, because $90+ later and the time we waited on everything, none of it was worth it. Other guests next to us seemed to have enjoyed their meals and we thought maybe bc they had earlier reservation times? Who knows. We canceled reservations at Tamasha bc we didn't feel like driving to Raleigh and we regretted that decision from the moment we left M Hansik until this morning as I write this review.
