This is probably the most authentic Korean restaurant I've ever been to outside South Korea itself! It's easy to pass by among the many restaurants on Bold street and the little text underneath the name saying Authentic Korean restaurant may arouse suspicion, but when I walked in I knew I landed a jackpot judging from what I could see. Also, I noticed that all the customers were Korean as well as the staff, and it was pretty much a full house on a weekday but they happily accommodated me despite not having a reservation.
I ordered bibimbap and kimchi and it was divine; you can choose between chicken, tofu, seafood or chicken and it comes with banchan (side dishes that are complimentary to every Korean meal) and also the egg yolk was raw as it should be, as I find many places outside Korea don't seem to do it that way or serve banchan. They also had the raw beef bibimbap which is a rarity on UK menus. The menu was very extensive and had almost every Korean dish imaginable, and they have hot plates on the tables for Korean BBQ.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming, service was good and prices were standard at about £10 per main. However, the downside is that they add on a 10% service charge regardless of how many people you are (I came alone).
Overall, fantastic authentic Korean food like what you would get in Korea, extensive menu and best bibimbap! read more
