What grabbed my attention was its cute Korean-themed decor and its traditional set up, although cleanliness could be better. Staff are super friendly, and sat our noisy group of 20 people with no issue.
Food can be overpriced for the portion you get, especially the fried chicken and bu-dae jjigae (army stew), we were able to share the food amongst our big group for a fair price.
From the variety of dishes that was ordered, I would recommend their meaty hot plates and kimchi/seafood pancake. Their Korean pancakes are crispy on the rim yet still warm and filling, which I loved. Their hot plates serve marinated meats, whereby the bulgogi was sizzling hot and so tender. Their pork bulgogi was even more amazing, and I highly recommend to add cheese to the top or just order cheese buldak. Be aware, these dishes are not only hot, but spicy!
The hotpot had all the hearty ingredients, soft chewy rice cakes, and a load of sausages. You can tell the broth has been made from scratch and is not too salty compared to cheap army stews. However, $37 for a small pot to be shared on a long table can be difficult, and was not worth the money.
The fried chicken happened to fall on the same sad note, as the price was not reasonable for the serving plate of chicken we got, which had a bit too much of the bone. On the other hand, seasoned very well and was delightful and irresistable.
The restaurant has a cute warm seating arrangement, good for family gatherings and late cozy nights out! Will come back to try the other dishes on their broad menu.
Best cheese huldak and gamja tang i had so far in CBD 🤤🤤🤤
If you like to eat spicy and cheesy, highly recommended to order the cheese buldak 👍🏼
The ambience was okay, but not the best, yet the food is awesome!!
I love the food here, very authentic and good portions!
I got a reunion with my friend today!!! And we picked this restaurant for lunch. GREAT FRIED CHICKEN AND TRADITIONAL KOREAN STEW!!! This place has been on my bucket list for a long time and today I finally have a chance to try it out. I bet you can enjoy the most traditional Korean food there. 200% recommend this place! The service is great too! Must back here for the next time!
Tried the Dae-ji Gukbab (Traditional Pork Soup), Sun-dae Gukbab (Blood Sausage w Sliced Pork) and Sundubu Jigae (Soft Tofu Stew).
Dae-ji Gukbab was so delicious and tasted like incredible comfort food.
The blood sausage in the Sun-dae Gukbab was not good. Will not re-order this again unless they make better blood sausage.
The soft tofu stew was really delicious too!
Will have a very hard time deciding between the Dae-ji Gukbab and Sundubu Jigae for my next visit.
Woo-gu-ji guk bab and shared original boneless fried chicken (whole).
Area was clean, all service was fast, food refills on side dishes. The soup itself was slightly under flavoured and benefited from added pepper. Steamed rice was standard. The sides of radish were standouts, full of salty goodness in the pickling.
Fried chicken was crunchy, a little bit more batter than expected for the little bits of meat inside; but well-cooked and had a nice salty flavour to carry through not requiring any other sauce.
We came here twice already, and it’s fun for bigger groups. There is a wide range of Korea food to choose from and the food is quite good.
The steamed pork belly seems to always be the favourite dish amongst the group, and also the egg roll that is super bouncy and delicious!
The budae jigae I think needs a bit more flavour/spice and the seafood pancake can use a bit more filling! But overall, a great place to hangout with friends over some good food and beers!
Must order the spicy pork bone soup!
One of my favourite Korean restaurants in Melbourne CBD. Soft tofu stew is a must try. Feels like I’m transported back to Seoul every time I’m here :)

I had the beef bulgogi dolsot bibimbab. It was really nice and the hot stone pot made the rice a little burnt and hard (which I love). The chilli sauce is also really good. It is on the pricey side but not too expensive.
Popular Korean restaurant for traditional korean dishes, not korean bbq. Getting very busy especially during weekend so you are better book ahead for your table or come early to avoid long queuing.
Food is good. We really enjoyed the snow cheese chicken (boneless), silky tofu and seafood soup (quite spicy though) and the seafood pancake (very filling). Japchae and beef bulgogi were ok too. Free refilled side dishes of seaweed, kimchi and pickle.
Price is very reasonable.
Service was a minus point here as it was quite slow. The staffs were super nice, friendly and accommodating but there were only 2 staffs running the front house for the whole restaurant during a busy sunday night. Thus, the service couldnt be good. They were really under-staff on the day we went though.
Overall, still a very good place to try out for Korean cuisine. Recommended!
Great vibe at this place! Felt like I was transported to a local eatery in Seoul. Loved the Dae-ji guy bap....so authentic and such a soul warming comfort soup. The LA beef short ribs and jajangmyeon was delicious too! I'm coming back with a few more friends so we can have more variety.
really good quality food, their portion sizes are generous as well so you do really get what you’re paying for.
service was fast and had an easy ordering system.
they do not split the bill on groups so just keep in mind!
Outstanding service, the fried chicken wasabi flavour was so good and the ginseng chicken is a must have for anyone whose never tried it, you can eat the whole chicken bones and all. The bones will melt in your mouth.
I LOVE GUKBAB. Their soups are tasty and so flavourful - I cannot fault anything. I love how generous they are with their japchae. It's an entre but it could be served as a main. Fried chicken? Hello - they're juicy and crispy.
