5.5/10The range of food was good even though it doesn’t offer Korean table top barbecue. The trouble came when I noticed how much water I was drinking and quickly realised that there was high MSG content in the food and I was constantly drinking water and going to the toilet to flush out the MSG that was present in the food all night long while I also developed a low level headache alongside other family members. Shame for the chef to not have enough confidence in the food quality and had to resort to MSG.

10/10Great food, and good value. Radish side dish especially delicious. A perfect venue for a pre Shepherds Bush Empire gig meal.

9.5/10Superb! Fried chicken in sweet soy was excellent, as was the Beef Bulgogi Bimbibap. On the list for next time I'm in Shepherds Bush.

8/10Third time going to this restaurant with my oartner and his 2 teenage children - restaurant was requested by his son! The food was excellent, even better than last time. Very good service and friendly staff. Food arrived quite quickly and was hot and tasty. We had spicy edamame, chicken dumplings, beef bibimbap, teriyaki salmon, pork bao buns, egg fried rice and sweet chilli fried chicken. We ate it all! We will definitely be going back next time they come to visit!!!!

8/10The food was good but it will be nice if they brought them out in stages rather than all in one go. The starters and mains arrived almost in the same time so a little overwhelming!

4.5/10The spicy seafood stew is a big disappointment. It's not a stew. Just hot water and some chilli added into it. It also didn't have an egg as described in the menu. Also had to remind the waitress to serve water. Quite disappointing.

Thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback, very much appreciated, however we do not sell a sea food stew, but a soup. Kind regards Silvia

6/10Friendly staff and good range of dishes. The food is lacking - this is the second time i come eat her and it is the second time i am disappointed. The veggie dumplings and the rice cakes were great; but the rest was bland and oily.

10/10This restaurant provides some super but simple food. My party each had the spicy pork bibimbap which they thoroughly enjoyed. We were well looked after - Maya, our waitress, was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

9/10Very nice restaurant serving Japanese styled food. Staff were young and very helpful The food came as and when it was ready which did mean that we had several dishes at the same time so did eat a bit too quickly! All in all a nice experience and would recommend.

4/10Food was not as we expected, bland and not tasty. Short staffed? Service was not great. Slow service. One dish was wrong despite asking specifically.

2.5/10Very disappointing, service was terrible, gave dishes out without cutlery, or bowls to eat. Gave the wrong dishes even though we repeated the order twice. Boiled rice came when all food was nearly finished. Asked for water for the table, it came near the end of the meal. BBQ pork was literally jist fried pork with no taste and was bland. Bimbimbap had to taste didn't come with sauce or anything had to request twice before giving the sauce. overall very disappointing. Won't be going back.

7.5/10We ordered the Kimchi Ji Gae, Cold noodles and Swee Soy Sauce Korean Fried chicken. The portion of the food are good. The taste are ok. The Kimchi Jigae is a little on the salty side and it could have more umami taste to it. The fried chicken was a big chunk of fried chicken but not as crispy as I was anticipating. But overall, it was not bad with the deals given.

3.5/10I was so disappointed after reading the good reviews I was hoping for a good quality meal. The chicken was Chewy and dry. The barbeque pork was basically just slices of bacon and had absolutely no spices or flavour. My tofu dish was ok but poorly presented. And it wasn't cheap either..terrible We will not be going here again and would not recommend it to anyone

10/10This Korean restaurant has been a great find. The food is great - especially the seafood pajeon, kimchi fried rice and the KFC! The dishes are excellent value and we can't recommend highly enough. We certainly won't be making the trip to Koreatown in New Malden again!

10/10This is a gem of a find and I will most definitely be returning to try more things on the menu. The food is authentic, and delicious. The portions are also legit. Will be coming with more people next time as I really want to do the stews/hotpots as they smelled heavenly. If you get the fried chicken, would highly recommend the garlic mayo. And do yourself a favour and order the beef japchae! 10/10 kudos

10/10I already wrote a 5-star review on Google, this is my second time at this restaurant, and won't be the last! The service is fantastic, the food tasty, good portions, and with the Fork deal you couldn't get a better deal, would recommend it 100%.
