Pretty good food. Little fusion twist to Korean food. Make a reservation to get a seat inside.read more

I was craving Korean food, so I went out of my way to have lunch at Maru on a busy Saturday…read moreafternoon. The restaurant was cute inside, modern and clean, but not too pretentious. I was very happy with my bibimbap. It comes out with the beef and egg raw, and then they cook in front of you in the stone bowl, which is pretty cool to watch. The server said they source local ingredients as much as possible, and the food definitely tasted high quality. The portion was a perfect size for one person. The other dishes I saw passing by looked delicious as well, and I would absolutely go back to try some other things. My complaints are pretty minor. They didn't give me any kimchi to start my meal, even though they gave it to other tables. Also, everything was rather pricey. A cup of tea, a water, a bibimbap, and a scoop of sesame ice cream came out to 36 euros. Service was fantastic. The servers were excellent, really nice and happy to explain things on the menu. And service was shockingly fast. I'll definitely be back.

Good to see Korean food is becoming more and more popular. Had a BBQ with 4 different types of…read moremeat and a kimchi jiggea which were pretty good. The banchan was quite limited and extremely small in size, hence the 3 stars (banchan is to me really essential in Korean food). Will go back to try out the bimbimpap for lunch one of these days.

Food finally arrived with rotten vegetables and green tinted eggs. I'm not one to ever complain about food service but this was horrible. They will definitely try and take advantage of you if you are a tourist.

We ordered from here on Deliveroo! Great food, loved the gochugang sauce, very spicy! Would…read moredefinitely order from here again. Forgot to take pictures before we had already eaten it all!

I feel like this place might be more popular for the hot tops & you cook your own food by yourself…read moreat your table... however, it was packed, so we got a 4-top in the back. I ordered the kimchi fried rice. It was rather delicious. The flavors all mingled well, and there was nothing overpowering. I did try the shrimp skewer - and it is literally that. A whole shrimp on a skewer (yes, head and all!). I can't say that was a winner with me. I enjoyed my mint tea as well. Everyone at the table left satisfied. The service is awfully slow, with having to chase the waitress down if you want to add anything to your order or to pay or anything besides the original ordering.

The food itself is an issue. The soups, noodles, sides, sauces, and meat itself is…read moreinauthentic....and even if it is inauthentic the quality itself is poor. The staff is slow and rude, and ignored our table multiple times. The decor of the restaurant is covered in dust and the grills are not cleaned.

- Price/Quality: We came for their delicious Korean specialty 'bibimbap' and that's what we got…read more For 16 euros, you'll get it in a hot sizzling stone pot (yummy but watch out), 15 euros to have it in a bowl (if you're a sissy). You'll get some soup, hot sauce and kimchi (mmm) with that. Update: I tried the japche: 12 euros and great. - Health: A lot of vegetables and the meat is quite lean, also possibility of tofu. It's a heavy meal though, with the rice and egg in it. - Pleasure: Great mix of things, I love how they put a raw egg on top of it, because the pot is so hot, it will boil during eating. The still sizzlin' rice and sesame oil on the bottom get nice and crunchy. - Quantity: Really satisfying. - Variety: Like I said, you'll get a couple of veggies (spinach, soybean sprouts, ...), seaweed, kimchi, an egg and you can choose if you'd like meat or tofu with it.

Not the best Korean, but very decent considering the limited choices in Brussels for Korean joints…read more Limited number of dishes for the banchan. Bibimpap was good and the kimchi ramen was ok. Was pretty full (Saturday evening), réservation I is a must.

Food is very tasty and as for vegetarian can get easily served with delicious leek pancakes or see weed salad or kimchi. Certainly to recommend for a nice change from the Centre however do not expect fancy authentic decoration. Food will be your main focus.

I love Korean, so was pretty excited to give this place a try.. But it wasn't all that. The…read moreinterior is pretty dull, not cosy at all. Staff is polite, but not friendly and the Bulgogi (typical Korean beef bbq) tasted dry and - just like the scenery - dull. Not many Korean restaurants in Antwerp, so I'll have to look further away next time I feel like Bulgogi, I guess.
