I tried Yoi Asian Fried Chicken, but there were burgers, hot dogs, pho, doner, pizza, and Italian to name a few. I ordered the chicken satay bao with (spicy fries).

It's a good place to go if you have a group or family that can't decide on just one place.

The portions were also small in relation to the cost, especially the kimchi which was just a spoonful which was surprising for a casual restaurant as opposed to a high end or formal one. No banchan with the bibimbap was also disappointing, as it's usually served with it or at least available on the side menu. I prefer a liquid egg yolk on bibimbap, but this restaurant gives it fried which isn't as tasty, but with extra bibimbap sauce it was ok. They don't give much but you can ask for more. The staff were very polite and friendly, efficient and the tables had a button to press to call the waiter. It's up a stairs but they do have tables downstairs for wheelchair access, and card is also accepted. The online booking process was very easy to do and very handy. Much better than having to phone in. Overall, decent Korean food and friendly staff, but small portions and costly prices for a restaurant with a casual atmosphere so not exactly filling or easy on the wallet. They are the only Korean place in York as far as I'm aware, so it's worth a try if you're into Korean food.

Good Korean food in York, hip... hip... hooray!…read more I love Korean food, and the fact that it varies so heavily from place to place... if it's a good Korean restaurant then there's actually a good chance you'll find something there you like better than another, with the opposite also being true. By default I love the various Kim Bap offering here, think Korean sushi with beef or random other fillings, offerings here... I'm sure there's plenty of places that serve it in the UK, but my usual Korean haunts in London don't actually serve it which I've always found odd. The oddest thing for me here is that I don't love their Bulgogi... normally that would send me running for the hills, it's just such a staple of Korean food (at least in the mainstream), but it wasn't bad and the overall consistency and quality always wins out in the end. Besides, as outlined in my opening, it's often different between the various restaurants so who am I to say which place has it right? (Not that there's really such a thing as long as it's not bad.) Another oddity (again, not bad... just different) is that in most Korean places I've been to the selection of side vegetables you get (which aren't free with a meal here by the way) are served room temperature... here they are actually warm, but it's a bit different overall... the little sweat beans, whatever the pearls of delicious may be called, are uber tasty though so I can't complain. :-) The actual kimchi is also a bit different, but again... not bad. (At least they avoid the trap of serving really cold side vegetables here... chilled is one thing, but I've been to a few Korean restaurants where they feel like they're practically straight out of the freezer.) The Spicy Quid is a must for me here... oh that sauce, that glorious sauce! I honestly take whatever is left of my meal at the end and soak up every last bit of sauce... I've also had the Spicy Octopus, which actually didn't have the same type of sauce... similar, and good in it's own right, but stick with the Spicy Squid and you can't go wrong my friends. For contrast there's also a Crispy Sweet Chicken dish of some variety (so sorry, just not remembering names today!) that was good... not my thing personally, as in almost anywhere, but I can very much see why people like this (as did those in there with us). Conversely I wasn't a fan of the Teriyaki Chicken though, it wasn't actually bad, but it didn't pack as much punch as I would have hoped. All of the above said it may seem like I'm not actually too keen on this place, but it's actually on my hit list for each time I'm in York for a few days which hopefully speaks for itself. The place itself is very cute, with food presentation to match, but it's quite small as there's only a handful of tables... if you're heart is set on here try and book in advance to avoid disappointment. The owner is actually a really friendly guy as well, as is everyone else that works there. I'm so glad to see this place doing well in York, the location move and being open for dinner is a newer venture, so give them a chance, tell a friend, and hopefully the lot of you will be hooked too! (Just leave me a space for when I'm in town please.) ;-)

The service is average bit efficient, the food came quite quickly and another good thing is that banchan is served complimentary here, which doesn't seem to be the case with many UK korean restaurants. They also have some Japanese dishes on the menu like sushi, gyoza, temaki and teriyaki. There is parking right outside and it's pay and display but very cheap: 50p for 30 mins and £1 for an hour. The atmosphere is very casual like a cafe, so it's great for lunch as well as dinner. Overall, authentic and tasty Korean food that's well priced and made to a great standard.

You do need to order things like rice and banchan separately though, which is an upside if you are like me and do not like rice which I always ended up wasting when it was included in other Asian places. Overall lovely Korean food for Manchester.

It's not as authentic as other places I've been to (mostly in Toronto) but the chicken was good! The chicken itself was crispy (even though it's covered in sauce) and had a good flavour.

Overall, I had a good experience here and the restaurant had good vibes (a lot of university students!).
