This spot is magical. Owned by Koreans, once you walk in, they will seat you downstairs or…read moreupstairs. The upstairs is entirely Korean. Almost all. There are tour groups, couples, and families. The dishes seem pricier than most taco joints but once you order you'll see why. The stews or jiggaes are legit in a giant tub, enough food to feed about five people. We ordered the gamjatang, the 'chica' size, and it was still way too much food. So much food! Except for the rice. You order that separately, which weirded me out but this ain't Korea.

While in Mexico City, I came across many Korean restaurants and very (almost none) few had a menu…read morein Spanish. I suppose they assume you either speak Korean, Vietnamese or you just pick off the pictures. I was not impressed with the menu situation and let me say...the garlic, spices and other seasonings sure pull you in to every spot. I had to eventually go with one and I ended up at Surasand in Colonia Juarez. The staff is very polite and supportive-although they don't know the ingredients or items on the menu themselves. I do very much appreciate the effort and understand being that they (the staff) are not Korean themselves. The place is welcoming, not to noisy and has several private spots. The restrooms are really really nice and a little more roomier than any other this city. They have toilet paper and it's clean! Nice staff, pleasant dinning environment and never a bad idea to try something out of my comfort zone.

I visited this restaurant with a Mexican friend because I wanted to introduce Korean food…read more Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing, mainly because of the service and the payment process. After the food was brought to our table, no one came back to check on us. There was no follow-up for side dishes, additional orders, clearing plates, or asking if everything was okay. The dining area seemed understaffed, and table service was almost nonexistent. Because of that, I decided not to leave a tip. In Mexico, tipping is voluntary and should reflect the service received. When I paid without leaving a tip, the person in charge questioned me about it persistently in a rude and uncomfortable way. Other customers nearby noticed, and my friend was also confused by the situation. When I asked for a receipt, I did not receive a polite explanation and was simply told to check the QR code myself. The food was also disappointing. I would not return or recommend this restaurant based on the service and payment experience.

It's mostly BBQ with some other options, but they don't have soondobo, dukkbokki, bibimbap, stuff like that. It's mainly meats on the grill and the banchai, which can be great for those who love it. 550 Mx all you can eat, which is also a steal!!! Great prices, great food overall. Just not recommended for plant based peeps.

Biwon is our favorite Korean BBQ restaurant in the city. We try and come back every time we visit…read moreMexico City. Service is always good, an endless supply of Soju and several flavor options. We always do the BBQ at the table which has never disappointed. The side dishes that are included are typical Korean, and never lack flavor. Their red salsa and Kimchi are always wonderful. We typically order another dish or two including the Ramen, which is always good, but the BBQ here is what shines. They also have some very good Ice Cream options for dessert, my favorite is the Corn Ice Cream which is served in a Corn Husk, and the Coconut Ice Cream which is served inside a coconut shell. We love Biwon and will continue to return!

TLDR: Probably the worst korean food I ever had…read more My friends and I are traveling and we were craving some korean food. We found this place because it had a good reviews on google maps. I honestly do not know how they got so many positive reviews. My friends and I got the soup and it tasted awful. I feel like even the instant soup pack is better than what they made. Maybe this place tastes good for the locals because they never had real korean food before but avoid this place at all cost. I tipped 5% at the end and the waiter came back and asked more for tips. Like please ask yourself what did you do that was above and beyond that earned those tips. I rejected to tip more because the food was awful and they never checked on us how the food was.

My friends and I loved this place! (Note: this review is for the Yucatan location.) After a week of…read moredelicious Mexican food we were feeling something a little closer to home and decided to go for Korean. Unfortunately the place was basically empty when we arrived but we are so glad we didn't let that change our minds. The decor inside was definitely a lot of fun and totally instagram-worthy... something along the lines of Alice in Wonderland meets Biggie? Which definitely reminded me of the Ktown vibes found in Los Angeles. As for the food, I'm always pretty skeptical of non-Koreans doing Korean food or Korean food outside Korean-populated areas (it's something about the texture) - but this place came pretty darn close! Of course the menu itself seemed to be a kind of Korean-majority fusion cuisine with broad Asian influences likely designed for the Mexican palate, but for a bunch of New Yorkers it was still pretty comforting to get a hot bowl of (modified?) bimbimbap on a Friday night in the middle of CDMX. The four of us each ordered something different -arroz frito con bulgogi, hamburgesa mexicoreana, duo de pollo frito, and noodles con veduras. The portions are pretty generous and the flavors definitely hit the spot we were craving for. Needless to say we were all extremely satisfied with our meals. BUT... that's not the end of it. We also decided to order from the Sweet Girl Moves dessert menu, which was probably our best decision of the night. This particular friend group isn't the most ~adventurous~ when it comes to different foods but they all loved the dessert, which were all very interesting flavor arrangements but nonetheless delicious and very creatively presented. My friend ordered the popcorn-themed one and almost practically burst into tears of joy. We definitely left the establishment very happy and well-fed and would recommend it to anyone visiting or local in a heart beat!
