One of the best Korean bbq place we’ve been to. Staff is friendly. Menu is great. Even get a free soup sent from the kitchen today! Their combination set is very good for 2 people, a good portion of chicken + pork + beef and salad for $29!
I don’t eat beef but my husband do so we always struggle to order because most places only do big serving of meat and we have to order 2 different meats but this place gives you the option to order small portion like 150g of chicken/ pork. Please don’t change the menu!
Korean BBQ is always fun! The meat here was fresh and great quality. For $29 it’s great value for money. Service is fantastic, will definitely return.
Amazing food, stellar service, would return. Recommend getting the marinated meat selection and bringing all your friends for a wonderful time.
Quite a relaxed environment, perfect for a date. The food was yum, and we left with food babies and smiles on our faces.
To be fair, the portions they say are good for two people could easily serve four, however we decided to gorge.
The staff were lovely and attentive to our table, which you’d hope for- as we were rookies to kbbq and would not know what to do. Probably one of my favourite places to go with friends too.
Given that Mrs Kim Grill have three stores, they sounded like a chain that I get suspicious about delivering sub standard food. I was unsure why they got good reviews but my friend wanted Korean in South Melbourne so I decided to give them a go.
How wrong was I? Granted, we only had their lunch specials and not their grilled meats / Korean BBQ, but I really loved their seafood soft tofu stew here. The flavours are spot on and they give you fresh seafood which obviously makes all the difference in the world.
The young woman who served us was super friendly, I think she is the owner. I can’t wait to try their Korean BBQ and report back!
One of the best Korean grill I've tried. My favorite has to be the pork neck & beef skirt steak. Lucky we just moved nearby so we can eat here often!!
A beautiful way to end the working week and with friends eating delicious food. From what has been a scorcher of a few days with over +40°C weather, we were hoping for an air conditioned restaurant, sadly disappointed but luckily when we arrived the temperature dropped down to 27°C and we were sat right in front of the door where there was a cool breeze blowing softly through the door. A tad too dark as the blinds were down to block the sun and heat.
Having a banquet style set up mixed with a few changes having a vegetarian in the group, the staff accommodated and happily adjusted the menu by offering unlimited salads, vegetables and Tofu. The food was of good and fresh quality, vibrant in colour and delicious to the taste. We guess you can't go too wrong with Korean BBQ. A great thing about Mrs. Kim's Grill is that they actually change the grill everytime they change the type of meet being cooked, which isn't as prevalent across Korean BBQ places we've gone to, and we've been to a few. As we were in a group, it was roughly $35.0 a head (selection set $69.0 and enough for 2) and it came with a selection of usual Korean salads, pickled items as well as a soup and rice. Food is plentiful and more than enough to eat. If you're feeling hungry, this will more than fill you up.
The layout of the restaurant was good with ample space on either side and plenty of room to move around if you're in a larger group like we were. The decor could improve and a little face lift wouldn't hurt as it was a little old and dated.
Location: coming from the city, Mrs. Kim's Grill is located on the left hand side of Clarendon St and only few steps away from The Market Hotel.
Parking: Oddly being a Friday, we were actually expecting a fair bit of traffic in the city going outbound but it only took 10min to get here. Same happened with parking as we found parking right in front of the restaurant which offers 1P from 8am-6pm.
Not a bad Korean BBQ place and a great place to hit up if you're craving for Korean BBQ and all for a reasonable price. Till next time, this is Our Foodie Find!
All set enough for 2, it states on the menu. Understatement of the year. My partner and I were close to rolling out the door after our meal. We ordered the Butcher Cut Set and by the time we were starting on the second cut of meat (out of 4), I was ready to call it a day.
The pork neck, beef skirt steak and lamb chop were just awesome. Tender and juicy, and also tasted fresh. I didn’t like the pork belly as it had way too much fat, but if you’re like my partner, that sure wasn’t an issue.
The side salads were excellent too. Didn’t expect much from them but we were impressed by the flavours and textures. The soy bean soup was another very flavourful dish.
Not sure what came over me but I ordered the 500ml soju cocktail for myself and I was struggling to finish it at the end. Not one to let alcohol go to waste I persisted to the end.
Big thank you to the two waitresses who were super attentive in helping us cook our meat, and also one of them who went out in the rain to purchase milk for our order of matcha milkshake. They could have just told us that it wasn’t available; so her action was very much appreciated.
This place is another good place I would go for Korean BBQ.
Came here 2 weeks ago and had the Mrs Kim Selection set. For $69 for 2 people and what you getting for the set is great value. Fills us up and we were happy.
For the meat you get pork neck fillet, soy chicken, skirt steak, soy lamb chop and chilli pork belly.
Also comes with two salad of your choice and we choose the smoke salmon and onion salad, and the tomato and avocado salad.
And it also comes with veggie parcel, soup of the day, two rice, home made Kim chi, pickled onion, Ssam Jang soy bean dipping sauce and pepper & garlic salad and spring onion salad.
We really enjoy our dinner and the staff cook the meat for you. The staff was helpful and friendly even tho the female staff that serve us that night didn't smile that much but later she was better. But the male staff was friendly. Would come back here again. 😀
Love this place! We came when it had just opened and were very impressed. The meat selection was great and all of the food tasted amazing. We would have liked it if the staff explained what they were doing with the fire pit, as we weren't sure if they were coming to maintain it or if that was our job, since they put all the meet onto the bbq once starting it. Also, the veggies with melted cheese on top was strange, but who doesn't love melted cheese!!
Overall, a great experience.
The food is always amazing, fresh and tasty!
And the family that runs it are so sweet and attentive.
Try the Kimchi Stew and Kimchi Pancake both are delicious.
My favourite Korean restaurant.
Amazing food and service. Great staff.
