    This was a small Korean buffet establishment owned by a Korean lady located across from Rustan's…read moregrocery. This is one of those hole-in-the-wall places the locals love to go to and only know about. We came here late Wednesday evening and they were open till 10p. They offer two kinds of thin slices of meat to fry while they have japchae, spicy tofu soup, veggie pancake, breaded fish that was soggy with sauce, sautéed mushrooms, two different styles kim chi, and others. Selections were small and ok. I think the only thing I really liked here is the meat, tofu soup, and japchae but I heard the price is very cheap for this buffet. They do still have the traditional peanut sauce, and peanut oil with salt n pepper for your meats. They do offer alcohol and sodas. The place was small and only had a few parking places in front. Was crowded so this means it's popular with the locals. You can make reservations. There AC is blasting so if you sit by the AC, the burners will blow out like us. Our meats were not being cooked continuously but the servers, helped to solve that issue. For all-u-can-eat food, really cheap price per person and good customer service, I would come back...

It's right across Piandre Salon and Eat Fresh in Little Baguio, San Juan. The food selection at the buffet is quite small but very good. The dishes I always go for are the buttered corn, bacon-wrapped dokbokki, fried fish, the bulgogi and the banchans. Once you are seated, they give you wooden trays of meat: a mix of pork and beef trays. Thinly sliced, ready to crisp on the grill! They will continue serving the trays until you tell them to stop! Honestly, don't stop until I've had a total of 10 trays! This is an awesome dining experience for only Php299. Drinks are not included but you can order a Liter of regular coke. They have Korean ice cream here too; Php65 for the gold fish ice cream! I suggest that you make a reservation if you plan to eat here during peak hours. Also, skip the rice! Just enjoy all the meat that you can eat! :D

    It took us awhile to forgive Samgyupsalamat. At their Kapitan Tikong branch months ago, we were…read morevery unsatisfied with the tough meat they served us. We used to be regular customers there so we knew our meat. Our visit at this new branch redeemed us as regular customers again. We were so happy to be surprised by the extra space they have at the back; you'd think the branch is small if you only took a peek from the outside. It was a bit warm at first but they adjusted the aircon later on. Walls were painted black even in the restroom. Overall place looked simple and had that hole-in-the-wall vibe. Cleaning the front windows looks necessary though it amusingly matches the restaurant vibe. Service was good since they always got what we needed at fair waiting times. Refills came back loaded with food and the water pitcher really kept the service water cold. The free veggie leaves, dips, side dishes, steamed egg, and soup were impressive to the eyes and tongue. Be careful with the steamed egg because the bowl was insanely hot! We ordered two meats ala carte and they were excellent both in texture and flavor! To the management team: Thank you for impressing us, and we can only hope and wish you maintain the good quality of your food and service. Forget what I said about the windows; they still pass! :p
