HANPOT Sets November 1 Grand Opening for AYCE Korean BBQ and Hot Pot in Moore

The former GangNam restaurant address now has confirmed pricing, a $5 combination option and opening promotions.

November 1, 2026 • Oklahoma • BY BUFFET AUTHORITY

HANPOT Korean BBQ & Hot Pot has put a firm date on the celebration in Moore, Oklahoma: November 1. After beginning soft-opening service October 10, the all-you-can-eat restaurant at 925 SW 25th Street is advertising its grand opening with a clearer picture of the food format, the pricing and a rather busy collection of opening rewards.

When Buffet Authority first reported the project on October 5, HANPOT had posted tentative lunch and dinner pricing but had not yet answered one important table question: would diners have to choose between Korean barbecue and hot pot? Now its published menu kiosk supplies the answer.

Weekday lunch, Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., is listed at $20.99. Dinner, weekends and holidays are $32.99. Those prices cover a Korean BBQ or hot-pot dining format, and guests who want both can add the other for $5 per person. There is a catch worth knowing before everyone at the table makes plans: HANPOT says the dual-format option is limited to 80 guests per day.

The restaurant also advertises an unlimited self-serve bar with vegetables, Korean side dishes and dipping sauces. Grilling happens at the table, while hot-pot diners choose broth and cook at their own pace. HANPOT lists a 90-minute dining limit and does not permit leftovers to be taken home. The two-format upgrade is a particularly useful detail for groups that cannot agree whether the evening should involve a grill, a pot or both.

The SW 25th Street location previously housed Korean BBQ GangNam. That means Korean barbecue is not new to this particular address, but HANPOT has not publicly established itself as a continuation of GangNam under the same ownership. The new operation has its own name, pricing and advertised hot-pot format.

Opening-month rewards, with dates attached

HANPOT’s official website says paid adult AYCE guests can receive a printed card for 15% off a future visit, up to $20. Its loyalty program is offering double points through November 30, and the opening raffle has a November 29 drawing with 20 announced winners. Raffle entries began October 10; the restaurant says no purchase is required and participants must be 18 or older.

There is also a membership birthday benefit: in a party of at least four, with three adult meals purchased, the birthday guest may eat free under the posted conditions. That is a separate continuing perk, not a special grand-opening price. For ordinary visits, posted hours are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

The biggest difference from the early October announcement is that diners now have the missing particulars. Moore knows when HANPOT planned to celebrate, what the two main meal prices are, and exactly what it costs to decline to choose between barbecue and hot pot. The only decision left to the table is which side to start with.
