    OMG! This is like Nandos (UK) for Korean Fried Chicken. The menu is so simplistic. It's chicken and it's got some other Korean dishes. Some of the menu items are loaded with cheese. Dreamland. I first came to restaurant with a friend based on the high ratings on here. It did not disappoint. Although the food portions are a bit much for only 2 people. If you want to try more than one thing on the menu, you may want to invite a party to come along. Rarely do they only serve half a chicken... and rightly so. Everything is heaven on the menu. If you're not a fan of spicy, go for a tame oven roasted original chicken. If you're the adventurous type, there are deep fried super spicy chicken heaven. Be warned though - this restaurant is popular and you might want to call ahead and book a table. Or pop on in, take a number and wait like a lowly peasants that we are. Come after 830 / 9 and you'll get a table instantly.

    Cheesy chicken tenders

    Service was down right non-existent. There is a push call button at your table, so it seems like the staff will only assist if you call for help. Otherwise, you're on your own. I needed to request a new fork twice, because the ones I received were either bent or dirty. When we asked for a knife, they brought us only 1 instead of 2. Towards the end of our meal, one waiter came to pick-up the wooden board that the chicken tenders were served on, but decided to slide off the board lining paper that had parmesan cheese all over it and left it on our table. He most likely was having an off-night, since we witnessed him dropping two soju bottles which smashed on the floor during our dining time. The food was just mediocre. We ordered the cheesy chicken tenders which were different and a large portion to share. We also tried the boneless chicken with rice cakes. They were a bit spicy, but was a very good sized portion as well. Overall, this place would be good for larger groups since their portions are large, there are a lot of interesting alcoholic drink options, and they play popular k-pop songs.

    We came as a group of 4- and ordered soy garlic, spicy, and volcano chicken- all bone in. The chicken was pretty good, my favorite was the volcano, but it's a spicy level that lingers. We also ordered Blueberry Maekgolli and Yuja Soju to drink. The blueberry maekgolli was very good, but the Yuja wasn't to our taste. It was too lemony. Keep in mind that both drink barely have alcohol, so you should order a bottle of soju on its own if you're looking for something more. The service is very bad. Even if you press the button on the table, we had to press it 3 times to get our check. Hey, a free meal works too

    Strangely enough, I had just come from Korea and having tried Mom's and Chicken & Beer there, I found Goobne blew them out of the water. Excellent and unique flavour combinations and overall fricking delicious. I was told after the fact, by a Korean friend, that Goobne is the best KFC chain and from this I can see why.

    To place an order you really need to press the button on the table, otherwise you are in for a long, long wait.

    This is a somewhat upscale Korean BBQ restaurant which is known for its high quality meat and other…read moreingredients. Every dish is ordered a la carte, and depending on what you order, it could get quite pricey. We opted for the set menu "C" for 4 people at HK$1,250 (approximately US$160) which included: -- A large variety of banchans which were actually quite similar to what you'll find in most Korean BBQ places in the US. Personally, I'm not a big fan of banchans but I did like their version of potato salad and kimchi. The kimchi wasn't too hot and spicy like some other ones that I've had, so for me, it was good. -- Korean raw beef plate (see picture). I can't remember its Korean name but it's the equivalent of a Carpaccio. This was da bomb and was the star of the night. It was absolutely fresh, beefy, flavorful, and delicious. Tip: Dip it lightly in the sauce so it won't overwhelm the natural taste of the beef. It was not exactly raw like Carpaccio or steak tartare, as you could tell from the edges that it's been quickly charred and seared before it's sliced. This's actually the way that I like and prefer. This was beyond yummy and it was so memorable that two weeks later, I can still remember what it tasted like as I am writing this review. -- Three dishes of raw meat for BBQ which included beef ribs, pork and scallops. The quality of the meats was good as expected, and it was also lightly marinated so the natural flavors were retained. We were so tired that night that none of us wanted to lift a finger to BBQ and it was such a relief that our server offered to cook for us. That was awesome. The BBQ meats were good, but nothing spectacular, especially after the stellar "Korean Carpaccio" plate. -- Soup noodles. To save time, our server was preparing our soup using a stove at the empty table next to us while we were eating the BBQ food - that's so cool! (How did she know that I was ready to fall asleep?) The soup noodles were meh and really nothing special, and the portion was rather small. My only issue with this place was that the portions were really small - even by Hong Kong's standard (which is infamous for tiny portions). The soup noodles, when divided into four bowls, were literally 2 soup spoonfuls of noodles for each person. The portions of the BBQ meats were also quite tiny. Moreover, I suspect that they didn't know how to do basic math - the pork plate came with 3 slices of mushrooms (see picture) and the scallop plate came with 6 scallops - and this was a set dinner for 4 people! This was really a 3.5-star experience - it's better than ok but I'm not a fan yet. But based on the portion size (in terms of HK$ and in terms of HK's standard to be fair), I'm rounding it down to 3 stars.

    I've been to Sorabol in Seoul but don't know if it's the same owner. Nevertheless, Koreans eat here…read more& from my 2 years covering Korea & many meals in Seoul, I can same the tastes here are consistent with my meals in Korea. I was here for a "set lunch" which felt made ahead of time which is the reason for 4 star & not 5. It was good, but not piping hot.
