Best place for chicken, work lunches are always booked here because it’s fast, quick and so delicious. flavours are amazing and would definitely recommend the hot pot and chicken and the Kim chi pancakes.
This place is a regular go to for small celebrations the chicken is pretty darn good but the variety of shared hot pots are out of this world, prices are a little higher than other food options in the area but it is worth every cent. it can be crowded at times so id recommend getting there earlier to make sure you snag a table
Re-visited this Korean eatery for Sunday lunch last week. Business was as busy as usual.
We ordered a fish cake hot pot, spicy noodle and a cold noodle. There were plenty ingredients in the hot noodles and it tasted good. Cold noodle was not as impressed as the raw beef cold noodle that I had in the city recently but it served good enough feeling for a hot Sunday. Fish cake was average without surprising.
Overall, it was a decent dining experience.

My partner and I decided to have lunch at 88 Topokki in Pinelands Plaza after walking past the restaurant for years. Their is an abundant amount of Korean fusion style food on the menu that all looks fabulous. We shared hot plates of bulgogi beef and marinated spicy pork and a plate of gyoza. The food was delicious and so filling and definitely value for money. The waitress was very helpful and food came out very quickly.
It's a small restaurant, but they deliver big on flavours. For a group of four, we ordered the (Spicy) Beef Rib Hot Pot, Korean Style Crispy Chicken and Topokki with Cheese. The Hot Pot itself wasn't too spicy nor heavy - the beef was mostly tender, the soup packs a kick but is cleansing and there's enough veggies and noodles to go around. Their chicken tastes similar to KFC, but is so much better. Unlike most of the fried chicken spots i've tried, you get a mix of drumsticks and boneless chicken that are a good sizes and the coating is super light and even more crispy. The topokki is a classic - it's soft and chewy just as you would want it, and it's even better alongside the fish cakes and cheese. We didn't end up finishing it all because it was so much food, but leftovers are always great!
My go-to for some yummy korean soy fried chicken and ginseng chicken soup. It can get quite busy some nights especially weekends but if you go after 8pm its usually okay. Unlimited refills of side dishes, i love the sweet potato and macaroni side dish. Highly recommend!
Just want to say some things about our visit last night (8/1/19) there was one waitress and a packed restaurant and she was incredibly good at her job! Very attentive and helpful despite how busy it was. Always made sure we had our side dishes topped up and our needs were met. She definitely deserves appraisal because I know how stressful it can be working in a busy hospitality job. Food wise - it was good! We usually come here for fried chicken. Although I must say if they had a grilled pork belly dish to add to their bbq range, I would order that every time!

Topokki 88 is our absolute go-to for a last minute catch up or cbf cooking night. They manage to produce very consistently rich and flavorful Korean Hot pot which has had us going back for a number of years now. The hot pot’s come in servings of 2 or 3 but will easily feed 3 or 4 respectively. They come out in large pot’s and cook on a gas stove on your table for everyone to share. A must mention is their KFC or Korean fried chicken.. big call but I would say it’s my favorite KFC in Brisbane. The original flavor with the honey mustard that they serve it with is so soo good it’s almost bad. The other 2 flavors are good too. Now to a couple of side notes. When you are seated, you will be given a small serving of banchan (Korean side dishes). Eat these promptly and ask for more! As with any decent Korean haunt, banchan is free and unlimited so don’t hesitate to stick your hand up in the air and wait for a waitress to come and give you another serving. Be advised that like most venues in Sunnybank, the staff can be few and far between. At times you will have to go get that beer and soju out of the fridge yourself. Lastly, it’s byo with a small corkage if you want to bring a cheeky vino which is alright with me! Don’t forget to ask for a container when you have left overs. Highly recommend but don’t all come at once!
Nice food with large serving. Friendly and prompt service. The cheesy pork chop is nice! All food is served with refillable side dishes. They also have Korean hot pot which is available in 2 or 4 servings.

A korean restaurant in Sunnybank/Sunnybank Hills. It has to be good to survive. there is so much to choose from, it is almost criminal if it isn't good.
Went with a largish group. There were 7 of us. The place is small, it is noisy, you do walk away with the smell of korean food in your clothes. But who cares if the food is good?
And it was worthwhile. We ordered multiple dishes. One of the hot-pots (you can choose small or large)we went for large, Sizzling pan pork and fried chicken. The appetisers were happily topped up if you ask. I have not been to a korean restaurant which would top up the soup too. At one stage, the hot pot became a little too intense, my mum asked for a top up of soup and to our surprise, they brought out a bowl of clear soup and even said, if you need more just ask for more. The portions were big enough to feed all of us and the prices were reasonable too.
It was a saturday, we made a reservation. 12.30pm. It wasn't as busy as I have read, but by the time we left, it was packed! It is worth the drive from the northside of brisbane.
Have good food will travel.
For a place that's named themselves after topokki, their fried chicken is actually on-point.
Loads of flavours to choose from, and super crispy - worth a revisit just to try all the flavours!
Got the soy garlic chicken, pork and vegetable pancake, bbq short ribs, cheesy corn. The soy garlic chicken had lots of bones but tasty sauce. The short ribs were tender and tasty, but they had lettuce as the garnish which didn’t suit. Cheesy corn is always good. The pork and vegetable pancake was my favourite - super tasty.
I didn't expect that ddekbboki is delicious
However it was so great.. I sometimes went there something Korean food but Never try ddebboki. I found great restaurant for ddekbboki. So happy to have all what I ordered . I will definitely come back to try another ddekbboki.
My family and I regularly come here for a variety of dishes - all consistently delicious. We've probably eaten here the most out of all the restaurants at Pinelands. Food comes relatively quickly and prices are good for the serving size.
Beautiful Korean food good value for money very authentic. Highly recommended
