Food so good I’m not sure they haven’t flown it in daily. The kimchi and the pickled mushrooms on the banchan genuinely made me tear up a bit. We’re so lucky to have this place. Honestly, I’m a little upset my favourite spot is blowing up.. but really, the whole team deserves it. Thank you for so many incredible meals ♥️
Good Korean restaurant, the stuffed chicken, kimchi and the pickles were delicious. The beef short rib stew was a bit too sweet for our taste. The restaurant is very simple but has his own atmosphere, personnel is nice and helpful. I would be happy to go back.
1st time trying Korean food so didn’t know what to expect and booked a table after reading an article in timeout. The location is perfect and simple as you can see the chefs prepping the food from were we were sitting. Service was great and very helpful. Would definitely recommend the Tongdak woodfirw chicken ( sometime you have to pre order) very popular we probably oredeed to muck food as we had 2 staters 2 mains and sides to shade for 2 and it was plenty would definitely revisit and recommend.
Superb food and really nice staff. We had the stuffed chilli starter, then the tongdak chicken. Both were delicious. However, the space itself, and therefore the ability of the two lovely members of staff to do their job, is quite limited, and the night we visited, very, very warm. Also, we were initially seated downstairs. My sister is impaired in her right ear, and literally couldn’t hear a thing due to the confined space and noise, but our lovely server was able to find us a seat upstairs. Such a shame, as the food and staff are both excellent.
Had amazing spicy tofu and roasted chicken. Quite a tight space, but nice ambiance. Would not recommend ordering the kimchi. It was delicious, but £2.75 for 3 tiny bites was absolute robbery. I would order kimchi again if it came in a decent sized bowl or was refilled when finished, as is the style in most Korean restaurants.
Came here for Valentin’s as we were curious about Korean food. Love all the vegan options listed on the menu, however I should warn you the food is quite pricey here in general. We had the jiggae stew which was full of tofu and variety of mushrooms, sadly it doesn’t come with rice, which I think is not very traditional and overcharging the customers as jiggae is traditionally eaten with rice. My partner had the fried glass noodles which were really good. Overall, would not come again due to high price.
The food was nice and authentic but the server was not very kind on the day I visited. The shop seemed busy so we asked if there is any seat available inside to double check but the server was treating us quite rudely. Even though the service didn't make the entire experience very enjoyable the food was still nice. As a Korean it reminded me of home
Great food served here! Fresh, tasty and a well thought out menu. Good amount of food and tasted very authentic. Server's knew their menu too and its great to hear them discuss each dish to you. Top marks, well done.
The food is amazing! Will come back and try other dishes. It is a bit pricey but it is worth it. It will be more a treat when we come here. Service is alright, could be a bit more friendly. Huge thank you to the kitchen team as the food was just perfect. Made me think of my holiday back in Korea.
Such a little hidden gem, the food was so so good, albeit a little pricey for some of the food and drinks for the small space. I'm not a fan of backless seating and very small spaces. Would definitely recommend visiting in the day or an early dinner as it would feel claustrophobic when busy. Saying this I would still go back to try other dishes with friends as it was very different to other eateries. It felt very authentic, non pretentious and so tasty! We reserved a rotisserie chicken, Tongdak, which came with rice inside, Kimchi fried rice and Gochu. The wine recommended to us was delicious and exactly the notes we asked for.
