Review Paik's Bbq - Melbourne

Service was very fast and professional, all staff are willing to help. Meat are high quality and no freezer smell. Plenty off seat with big table for a group of friends and family. Nice one! very recommended.

This is one of the nice Korean BBQs in Melbourne, nothing too fancy, just a low key kind of joint. Serving pace was a bit slow, but it was on a Friday night, so I guess it's normal. The staff were friendly and helpful though. I found the food ok, nothing too special, but it's a nice venue where you can hang out with friends.

One of my favourite Korean BBQ Most importantly, there has pork belly stabbed in a prune manner. Oh, it's softer You don't have to chew for a long time to get tired. I like this one. It's so good. #There are many types of side dishes, including pickled onions, pickled radishes. Crab Stick with Mayo Seaweed Soup This shop's kimchi has been refilled 3 times. It tastes really good. #Gochujang dipping sauce. It's not like other Korean restaurants. There is a little more seasoning to make it more flavorful.

Had dinner there. Ordered a beef combo, pork belly, chilled buckwheat noodle soup, beef bibimbap and some corn tea. The quality of the meat is good and fresh. Despite of staff shortages, the staff there were friendly and attentive. Seated comfortably at the table with enough space to put all the foods with the hot plate placed in the middle. Nice cozy restaurant good for catching up.

We are from WA and you guys in Melbourne are so lucky to have Paik's BBQ. Food was amazing and felt like I was in Korea. The manager was super ultra nice and he even bought us masks as we were worried that we could not get on Uber back to the hotel with mandatory mask rules in public transportation. Again, thank you for making our night special and please please consider opening in Perth sooooooon.

Glad to finally try another one of Paik’s restaurants. We ordered a variety of food including bbq, soups and pancake. The bbq meat seemed quite fresh and the soups were tasty. The restaurant is quite big and bustling, service was not bad either. Price I would say it’s about average for kbbq.

Really great Korean BBQ in the CBD. Lots of meat options with the pick of the bunch being the wagyu. We ordered one of the meat sets and some sides and were amazed by the variety we received. Drinks list was also very appreciated, including a "lage-rita" corona and frozen margaritas which brought back many holiday memories. Overall easily one of the best Korean BBQ shops in town and will definitely be back.

One of the top kbbq places in the CBD area, they serve up a variety of excellent side dishes. Their pork back neck and steamed egg with cheese are especially nice dishes to have there. Staff is attentive and service was great!

Another throwback photo - Missing korean bbq so badly... I mean who doesn’t love kbbq?! 🥓🤤<br/><br/>Dishes:🍲🍟🍔<br/>2 sets of mix combo with soybean paste stew and kimchi stew 🍲| seafood pancake 🥞 rolled omelette with cheese 🧈<br/><br/>Value:💰💲<br/>Enjoyed everything we ordered, and friendly staff even on a busy Friday night. Love the variety of side dishes and fresh veggies to go with the grilled meat! My favourite was the rolled omelette with cheese & gravy, the dish was simply divine, definitely a must order! 🤩 <br/>Price was reasonable and dishes were good for sharing. The only downside was the small space which was quite uncomfortable, as we were seated at the very back & were very close to our neighbouring table.<br/><br/>Will I go back and overall score: ❌⭕️💯<br/>Yes - 8.5/10 (have given it an 8.5 as I personally still prefer Bornga (another korean bbq joint)!)

If you’re looking for a korean bbq restaurant with fast service and a warm ambience, Paik’s bbq is a great choice!<br/><br/>We ordered the set beef menu which consisted of 3 beef dishes, a choice of 2 stews and plentiful of banchan (side dishes). We also ordered additional japchae & naengmyeon. <br/><br/>Food came out fairly quickly and the staff was readily available to assist with cooking and anything else you may need. Japchae was absolute delicious, clean and not too oily, naengmyeon is exactly as you would expect, along with sauces for you to alter according to your taste.<br/><br/>All in all, food, ambience, staff was amazing at an affordable price!

Food: Your good old KBBQ. No more, no less.<br/>Ambience: Have liked that place since it was the old owners Drumtong. Great for group dinners.<br/>Service: Very friendly.<br/>Value: Fair priced. Met all expectations.<br/>Only gave 4 stars because there a a bazillion KBBQ places in Melb. It needs go somehow go that extra mile to grab a bigger market share.<br/>

Me and my husband had a take away meal from this BBQ restaurant yesterday. Pork was really delicious. We were very satisfied with generous veggie and side dishes. I wish they provide more selections soon.

I been this restaurant last time. I would say food was average and quality was fine. But only one thing that I upset about this restaurant is staff. One Korean guy at cashier ( not sure but I think his name is Edward) so rude to me and my friends. Words that he talked to us was so rude and no customer service at all. The way that he and all staff treated us, always rush us to finish our food even that time it not busy at all, complaints us to not flip meat on the grill ( but we want it cook more and burn a bit ) The guy name Edward even said that<br/>“ This is your food need to take care of it, you need to take respond and cook it by yourself” and then he dump tongs that use for flip meat to the table and walk away! Excuse me!! You not even ask us and communicate with us nicely, we know how to cook! But just want it cook well done a bit, and also another staff also no service mind. Our food on the table not finish yet... we still going but they already grab our plates and ready to throw it in to the bin. And also they tried so hard to kick us out of the restaurant. Hurry to cook all of our meat and clear all the table. Dump plates and clear all things on the table so loud and tried to made some noise to interrupt us while we enjoyed our food. Taste of food was great but service and staff was zero!! Never back to this place again

Great food and service, nice portion size for cost.

Lovely delicious food. Some dishes cheap enough to have dinner here every day. But most fun when sharing with friends.

It is a really delicious restaurant ❣️

Very very delicious. Very kindly service. Recommend to all people.

Amazing food and great customer service.<br/><br/>The Korean BBQ here at Paik is exceptional. The portions you get including meat, the variety of side salads and complimentary side dishes are quite generous and overall great value for money.<br/><br/>Service is attentive and prompt with servers helping patrons cook their meat for them at the table. Our usual host Edward is always very friendly and welcoming and makes the entire dining experience fun.<br/><br/>Paik is definitely the #1 spot for Korean BBQ in Melbourne.

Great service with great food! All the staffs were kind with smiles.

Loved it! The food was absolutely delicious and there was the biggest selection of banchan I’ve had at any kbbq. Three different serves of meat and a rolled omelette with cheese and gravy. All amazing. Will be back.

멜버른에서 제일맛있는 한식집

First time I came, everything so amazing.<br/>Friendly staff, yummy food~~~<br/>Come back again, again and again.

This shop is the best resturant in Australia.<br/>I recommend for everyone!!!really fantastic bbq :)

I recommend! I could taste Korean BBQ Thanks Paik's

I liked everything! Service was great ;) yummy😆 The staff was kind and the food was delicious. a neat, bright place!

The staff who served us provided really great service. Food is great too. Overall 4.5 out of 5

Pretty good

I had the best beef ribs in this Korean restaurant! It was very tender. I recommend soy sauce yeoltan Bulgogi for kids as my boys had enjoyed. I am glad that we ordered it as our waiter recommended.....can’t remember his name.

Best korean bbq I’ve ever tried!!!! Good kimchi stew and meat!

This is my third visit to Paik’s BBQ and every time has been exceptional. Great service, food and atmosphere. One of the best Korean BBQ restaurants in Melbourne!

I love this place which has friendly staff and nice food. Also, fresh side vegetables are the best for me. My family love this area as well.<br/>Definitely I will go there again with my friends.

This is my second time coming here and still as great as my first visit.<br/>I have been to few other Korean BBQ place that are pricier than Paik's but I still find this place more worth than others.<br/>I would often recommend this place and my friend who went to other fancy Korean BBQ place agrees that Paik's is better.<br/><br/>They would serve you tremendous amount of side dishes. Some of my favourite side dishes are: free seaweed soups, crab meats, macaronis. Not to mention they offer free refills for this.<br/><br/>We ordered the mango cocktail, it came a bit smaller than we expected. We thought it taste like mango juice, but actually after a while we felt the alcohol kicks in.<br/><br/>The mix combo definitely worth it.<br/><br/>Highly recommend!

I love this restaurant, such a wonderful korean bbq in melbourne. Good mannered male staffs. Love the atmosphere. Should visit here

A lot side dishes came to our table, so friendly service, good mood place. <br/>If you are hungry, should come to here.<br/>But weekend’s so busy. Must book here.

Fantastic amazing awesome really nice mood in korean bbq restaurant🤪😝😛😜😍

Amazing Korean BBQ and excellent service. Edward was the best waiter ever, He though us how to enjoy the real Korean BBQ.

Great customer service from Edward. Caring and delivers a great dining experience.

I have decided to try this Korean bbq restaurant because the high demand and recommendations from others to come.<br/>First of all the customer service was of high quality, Edward a waiter on floor was very friendly and easy going.<br/>The food was really good I would definitely recommend the rice cake dish and the meats.

Came to PAIK BBQ to have dinner and was served and seated very fast! The food was exceptionally nice and the staff was very polite and friendly. In particular we were served by a staff member named Edward who was very attentive at helping us cook our meat as well as made sure that we were catered for and had everything we needed throughout our meal. Amazing place to have kbbq and will definitely be coming again

Had dinner with some friends. Food is perfect, something for everyone. Service was awesome and Edward was very accommodating. Will be back definitely!

Great value. Good quality. Plenty of sides. We had the pork combo and that was more than enough for the two of us. Staff is very attentive and friendly. Thank you Eward for the great night!

Beat place in melbourne.<br/>Friendly and good service and staff:) <br/>(Edward of Staff is kind and funny.)

❤️❤️🙏🏻😭👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Good meat for $78 combo will be coming back soon and very fast service very nice employees!!

What a beutiful!! This is the best what I have ever eaten!

We went here as my korean friend recommendation. It’s actually a nice place with a good ambience and a nice food too. The portion is okay, it could be consideypricey for some people. But for me it’s still okay. We tried japchae, beef and pork bbq, egg cheese and bibimbap. Everything is nice except the egg is a bit too salty for me. They gave a lot of complements of the side dishes even seaweed soup which isn’t normal in other places. Would be better if they marinated the meat 🥰🥰

All the food was good and friendly staffs. My favorite place!

I came here with a very positive attitude because I have been waiting to try it for weeks.<br/>I made a booking to come with my friends and half of the group was late so the people who arrived ordered first.<br/>The staff repeatedly came to our table within 10-15 minutes asking when the rest of our friends will come, even though there were empty tables and most importantly we have placed an order already. There was no need to worry that we won’t pay.<br/>When we were dining for an hour and Fifteen minutes the waiters came to tell us the exact phrase “it’s time to go home”<br/>That was very rude.. first of all, it was 8:10pm and there were still many people dining, second of all there were atleast 3 empty tables. <br/>Another staff then handed us the bill and told us to pay at the front.<br/>Very very disappointing experience and I cannot even comment on the food as all we focused on was how we were treated by the staff.<br/>We will tell our friends not to come here, it’s not worth the hype.

Good korean bbq meat, great sides and amazing customer service. We had the beef combo with japchae and rice balls on the side. Also would highly recommend the kimchi stew and beer-martini! Only thing I would fault is the small table out the front for 3 people, I would've appreciated a bigger table considering how much we ordered but they didn't equip us with a table out the back when I saw this being available as I went to the bathroom.

Highly recommended!

After eating last night, my stomach was not very comfortable this morning. I drank half a bottle of expired beverage before I found that the meat was not bad

everything was okay, but the serving sizes are horrible for its price . The pictures are definitely catfish size wise ! we were not full at all after our meal and had to order more meat after our set... Normally after eating a kbbq set i’m already full but this was not the case .

Paiks bbq probably has one of the best spicy pork bulgogi in the area. It is a must order dish when you visit. The kimchi soup is also really good, it comes with rice and shredded seaweed where they get mixed together with the soup. The beef is also really good here.

Friendly service, and kind recommendations. Their kbbq set is wonderful with a lot of side dishes, their also help cook and cut up the meat. Very budget friendly, their crab coleslaw was my favourite :)

Good service and delicious food <br/>High quality meat and sauces<br/>The combos are valuable to order<br/>And the non alcoholic drinks are amazing.

This in definitely in my books of one of the most delicious korean bbq experiences ever! Located on little Bourke street and a little bit far from Melbourne central lies a traditional Korean eatery.<br/><br/>Ordered: <br/>Beef combo $70.80 <br/>Japchae $19 <br/>Pork neck $21 <br/>Cold noodles $15<br/><br/>Review: <br/>The food came out reasonably fast and it’s wonderful to see that they use real charcoal as the flavour cannot beaten with an electrical grill. Beef quality was mediocre, Kkotsal was not marbled as much as I would’ve liked it to be but my fave cut of the night would be the pork neck. Tender but meaty had the perfect flavour but one tiny slice of pork neck for $21 is way too expensive. As what most reviews state the side dishes offered at Paik are unbelievable they have a wide range and you can get creative with binding the meats and wrapping them with the provided lettuce platter. Plus all side dishes are refillable !! Highlight would’ve been the cold noodles, this is a definitely an acquired taste as not all are used to cold noodle soup. But it is said that it is a must for Korean bbq especially when you pair the fresh off the grill meat with the cold fresh chewy noodles it’s a perfect. The noodles are super chewy and had elasticity as they are made of buckwheat. But the broth was so flavourful and light, wonderful for summer or a hot spring night.

📍Paik's BBQ, Melbourne<br/>Paik's BBQ aka 새마을식당 is the star franchinse in Korea owned by celebrity chef Paik Jong Won. There was a branch near where I used to work in Korea and they were just phenomenal! Despite of being cheap, everything tasted absolutely incredible from Kimchi Jjigae to Pork Belly. Not to mention, I loved their 1970's nostalgic interior design which laid out that "tougher but simpler" vibe. However, Paik's BBQ branch in Melbourne was quite disappointing in comparison.<br/><br/>We got Mix Combo (Marinated Chicken Thighs/Beef, Porky Belly, Kimchi Jjigae - $68.80), Spicy Yeontan Bulgogi ($18), and Charcoal Grilled Marinated Chicken ($17). Before I start, I want to say Banchans/Sides were on point - a good variety to complement grilled goods & refillable! All the grilled goods were decent especially Marinated Chicken Thighs and Yeontan Bulgogi. I particularly enjoyed Bulgogi the most because of its texture - thinly sliced pork cooked to perfection to make them all crispy and juicy at the same time. Went incredibly well together with their special spicy dipping sauce! Kinda wish we ordered more of that. But unforunately, overall portions were SMALL - pitifully small... they literally gave out 6-7 pieces per protein which caught me off guard. Considering the price, it just felt extremely expensive especially since there weren't anything outstanding about their BBQ (except for maybe Bulgogi). I also didn't like how thin their Pork Belly was as well (about ~0.5cm thickness). 7 Minute Kimchi Jjigae back in Korea was one of the best jjiaes I've had so I had a high expectation. But at this branch, they definitely didn't pull their weight - not flavourful at all and definitely lacked the amount of pork in the stew. Very very disappointing :(<br/><br/>Overall, it's an ok-ish K-BBQ venue in Melbourne. Not sure if I will return but for those who aren't accustomed to authentic K-BBQ experience, this might be a good introductory venue to start.<br/><br/>@melbfoodie_mark<br/><br/>-<br/>#melbfoodiemark #멜번새마을식당 #Paik'sBBQ #melbournekoreanbbq #melbournebrunch #melbournekoreanfood #melbournecafe #melbournefood #melbournerestaurant #melbourneeats #melbournelunch #melbournefoods #melbournefoodie

This place is definitely recommended. The service is terrific, the place and atmosphere also very nice. The portion of the small is a bit less than expected, but enjoyable nonetheless

4.5/5 <br/>I’ve been wanting to try out Paik’s BBQ for a while now, so I was so excited when I could finally go. I went with a group of friends for dinner, and it was definitely wise of us to make a reservation in advance- there was a line already waiting outside for the restaurant to open. <br/>Presumably due to how busy they are, our session was limited to one and a half hours. That being said, it was plenty of time to dig in. We ordered plates of Marinated beef short ribs, Mansinchang Samgyeopsal (Marinated pork belly- teriyaki sauce), as well as Pork Spare ribs and neck. In addition to the meat, we also sampled their Japchae and Cheese Gyeran Jjim (steamed egg with cheese). <br/>They were very generous with the banchan (side dishes). Some of the banchan I liked the most included the crab stick, pasta, fish cake and kimchi. They also served seaweed soup, which was different from other KBBQ places I’ve been to. <br/>The meat was delicious! I enjoyed both the beef and the pork, but I personally found pork belly to be the best meat to wrap up in lettuce (or any of the other vegetables provided). Steamed egg with cheese was also a very delicious dish, the eggs were so fluffy and combined with the cheese- it was simply amazing! Japchae was the only dish that I felt as if it wasn’t too special, and it took the longest to come out. <br/>The staff were very friendly and approachable. They allowed us to refill some of our favourite side dishes over and over again, and also attended to our needs very quickly and efficiently. The ambience of the restaurant is also very lively and cheerful, and although it looks small from the front, it was actually bigger than I thought. <br/>We definitely had a pleasant experience at Paik’s BBQ, and will look forward to coming back again sometime! <br/>

Understaffed but average speed and the bbq is very tasty and relatiwy cheap!

Food and service was an absolute 10/10. Service was fantastic, the ladies were so helpful and I am not used to the waiters/waitresses cooking the meat for us so it really made the experience awesome.<br/>The Pork Combo was delicious, the cocktails and 'Mageok.. (forgot how to say and spell it)' were so different!! Definitely worth the try!! Looking forward for my next trip to Melbourne and coming straight here!!

We ordered the Beef Combo from Paik’s BBQ, which consists of boneless short ribs (Kkotsal), beef finger ribs (Neukgansal), marinated beef thin skirt (Yangnyeom Anchangsal), the combo kimchi jjigae, and a plate of vegetables to wrap the meat with. As for the à la carte dishes, we ordered the rolled omelette with cheese (Cheese Gyeran-Mari) and old fashioned lunch box (Yetnal Dosirak). The service was impeccable. The waitresses/waiters helped cook the beef, so if you’re not good with barbecuing meat, you can get help from the staff to ensure you get a very tasty meal. The rolled omelette with cheese was much larger than I expected it would be; the cheese to egg ratio wasn’t balanced since there was more egg than cheese, but it was perfect for me since I prefer less cheese. The old fashioned lunch box was a spontaneous decision and tasted delicious when eating with the omelette, kimchi jjigae, or even as an individual dish. <br/><br/>The beef set was a little pricey for the amount of meat we got in my opinion. Nonetheless, service and food were satisfactory.<br/><br/>Beef Combo: $78.80<br/>Rolled Omelet with Cheese (Cheese Gyeran-Mari): $16<br/>Old Fashioned Lunch Box (Yetnal Dosirak): $9.80<br/>💸Total Meal: $104.60<br/><br/>Follow my Instagram for food reviews in Melbourne, Bangkok, Houston, Japan, etc!!<br/>@keenchubbyeats

Had an amazing first experience with Edward, he was so friendly and welcoming. Made sure we had a true Korean bbq experience. He cooked our meat to perfection and made us wraps the authentic Korean way. Thank you Edward, we will be sure to come dine with you again

Service was all great especially Edward was very helpful and attentive. We will most likely come back.

Not usually one to review however service was very poor. Will not be returning.

Never in my life have I ever experienced such bad service from a Korean restaurant before. My cousins and I called ahead and booked a table for 20 people to celebrate the pregnancy announcement of two of our family members. When the first group arrived at the restaurant, they were asked multiple times, by the manager with half sleeve tattoos on both arms, are you sure you have 20 people? We told him, Yes we are very sure we have 20 people in our coming. When the second group arrived, they asked again, are you sure you have 20 people? We told them again Yes we are sure, everyone’s almost here, they’re just finding parking. They then split our group onto three tables and made table arrangements for only 18 people. There was a long table right next to us that could have accommodated all 20 of us so we could all sit together and we were told we could move there once the last of them left. (They were already packing up to leave at this point). Once they left, one of the waitresses told us we could move over, then the manager comes up and says no there’s another booking you have to stay where you are. Why?? We were there first and we also made a booking too? We would have happily moved to the other table to be able to sit all together. We had not ordered anything yet at this point either so it can’t have been that difficult to let us move over. But whatever, we let that slide and didn’t let it ruin our mood. We ordered our food and the raw meat came out fast but the portions seemed very small for the price that you’re paying. Also, the other precooked dishes we ordered took forever to come out. We asked the waitress a couple times and all she said was that it’s coming. She didn’t even bother to go to check or anything. We were almost done with all the meat when they finally came out. I then ordered an extra three dishes and had to repeat myself a couple times as the waitress kept forgetting the items. It was only three things!! Like just write it down if you know you’re forgetful?? We also asked for an extra serving of kimchi as our table only had one between eight people and the waitress said no. We asked why and she said because each table only gets one bowl and we refill it. Seriously? You put eight of us on one table and there isn’t even eight pieces of kimchi in the bowl to begin with. She hesitantly gave us an extra bowl of kimchi and told us just leave all the empty bowls of side dishes at the end of the table and she will refill them throughout the night as she goes past. We had 4 or 5 empty bowls waiting to be refilled for about 20 minutes. <br/>Being a celebration dinner, some of us wanted some soju and beer to go along with our dinner. They then asked to see the ID of EVERY SINGLE PERSON on our table when only a couple of us were drinking. We have never ever been asked for the ID of every single person on the table before at any restaurant, whether that is a Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, Mexican, Italian, even Bars don’t ask to see everyone’s ID. All of us are over 18 with the youngest being 20 years old. We would have completely understood if they asked only the younger looking family members but our age range was 20 - 30 years old. Two of us did not have their physical ID on them, one had a photo on her phone and they accepted that but the other one was one of the pregnant family members who can’t drink anyway. They then said sorry we can’t serve this table alcohol because she doesn’t have her ID. ??????? She’s PREGNANT and she’s also 30! Have some common sense to realise she can’t drink alcohol anyway!! He then pointed at another family member and said but she looks young. Yeah well she has her ID so that doesn’t even matter...?<br/>After going back and forth with the manager, he said people without ID can move to another table. So I asked him, you want to make a pregnant woman go sit and eat by herself on a seperate table?? He literally responded “yes”. Do you make a family of 4 who have 2 kids underage sit seperatey from their parents just so the parents can have a drink?? I was astounded at how someone could be so rude and disrespectful and after going back and forth with him some more about how a pregnant woman can’t drink alcohol, he finally agreed to give us one bottle but our mood had already turned sour by then and we didn’t order anymore. He then said, “if you’re pregnant you have to cook the meat for an extra minute”. Really man?? Are you serious?? Every interaction with us from the manager and the waitress after that were so unbelievably fake and they were obviously trying to save face now. Little too late. <br/><br/>10 OUT OF 10 DO NOT RECOMMEND PAIK’S BBQ TO ANYONE.<br/><br/>We’re quite reasonable people too as some of us own cafes and restaurants and understand the pressure that wait staff have but these events were all just so stupid and uncalled for. The lack of any common sense from staff in this place is just abysmal.<br/><br/>Food was average but pricey. There are many many other KBBQ places in Melbourne with much better quality food and service.

Rating 4/5<br/>Service ★★★★<br/>Food ★★★★<br/>Ambience ★★★★ <br/><br/>Again, another korean BBQ joint. I came here last summer for a farewell dinner.<br/><br/>Paiks serve really delicious and good quality korean BBQ.<br/><br/>The side dishes are very yummy. Love their kimchi.<br/><br/>This place is very fun and friendly too with friendly staffs interacting with you while they were cooking your meal.<br/><br/>Overall, really had en enjoyable experience.

I love all paiks BBQ menu. especially yeoltan bulgogi is best of best. all food  tastes same as korea. so i felt like i came to korea.  The restaurant service is good, all staff is very kind. I'll definitely visit again.

Ordered the beef combo & the food overall was nice. As I had been to Chef Paik's other restaurant which was quite good, expectations were high on this. Unfortunately, the experience wasnt too great as the staff seems to be rushing with cooking the meat. This was followed by another staff trying to clean up the tables right after we were done. The restaurant wasnt super full either, so unsure about the rush. They could have asked us in a more polite and nicer way. Not returning.

Food is good. However, can't get over how the staff rushed us and cleaned up our table before we were done. And just took the bbq after our meet were cooked. There were still empty tables so it wasn't even full house. Won't return

Average kbbq in a medium price point. All the meat were nothing much special and I found the pork to be too fat for my liking. And with no pre-process to the meat felt like they came straight out from the butcher. <br/><br/>Staff were alright. Not sure about the shop vibe as it was arranged in a long stripe everyone is sitting in the aisle seat feeling kind of weird. Love the beer drink thought found it very special and refreshing.

Amazing BBQ joint in the CBD.<br/><br/>The place had quite some seats, it did smell like BBQ but there was still ventilation. Staffs were amazing, food didn't take long and they were always back to help with the grill. They changed the grilling plate every time it gets too stained.<br/><br/>The beef combo was plenty of meat. They were mostly tender, especially the short rib and thin skirt. Doenjjang jjigae (soy bean paste soup) was also flavourful and well portioned. Loved the pork belly too, it was great fat to meat ratio, cooked to perfection. <br/><br/>Of course, I had to mention the side dishes as they gave a lot and I enjoyed all of them (refillable) especially the pickled radish and salad bowl, the condiments was great as well (soybean paste, salt and pickled onion in soy sauce), and we even got some seaweed soup each which was warm and comforting.<br/><br/>Beef bibimbap was legit one of the best I've had, it was bit crusty but rice was cooked well, the beef was generous and really tasty, also I liked how the egg were mixed and poured in too, unique concept.<br/><br/>Egg roll was yummy, texture was good, cheese was a fair amount and I love the sauce as it wasn't your typical mayo and ketchup.<br/><br/>Squid bulgogi was also delish, squid wasn't rubbery, it was the perfect spiciness and flavour, there were also mushrooms in it which i love. Tried my sister's dosirak too and since I'm not a spam fan I can't really be a judge, but the eggs were perfectly cooked and there were anchovies in it which gave the dish more flavour.<br/><br/>Overall I'm really impressed by this place, could easily be the best BBQ joint I've been so far with amazing service and food. Do check this place out.<br/><br/>Update:<br/><br/>Came for impromptu BBQ session and got pork bulgogi and beef skirt, both were again pretty nice and staffs were friendly. Got the steamed egg and it was delicious. And yes the side dishes were sho yumm<br/><br/>( follow for more!✨)<br/><br/>ｘｘ，ｊｏｅｌｌｅ

One of the best korean bbq in cbd. The staffs were very polite and helpful in grilling our meats. We ordered beef and pork combo, spicy kimchi stew, chap jae and cheese omelet. All the dishes were delicious with reasonable price.

the food is good and the service is excellent! it's one of my best experience and after trying a lot of korean bbq i think this one is my favourite.

excellent service and food! the staff is very friendly! there’s a lot of choices of side dishes and they are yummmmm. no doubt will def come back here again :)

Been to many Korean BBQ’s and I think this has been my favourite! Extremely friendly and fast service, food came out quick, and the largest range of sides I’ve ever had (that can be refilled!). Delicious choices of meat. Will definitely be returning!

It was really good restaurant! <br/>All foods were tasty<br/>and all staff ware friendly and kind<br/>I recommend Beef combo and beer-rita<br/>I love here<br/>I'll come again! <br/><br/>
