Quick glance: + delicious, authentic Korean cuisine…read more+ good for groups with big tables with lots of room in between tables + value for money - advantageous if you speak Korean (staff is Korean) but the menu (and the staff) are fluent in English This is the favourite Korean restaurant of my Korean friend, so that speaks a lot of about the authenticity and quality of the food. I will admit I have never looked at the menu myself because I have my Korean friend order everytime we go there. Everything I have tried had been excellent. I recommend a plate (or three!) of kimchi which is fresh and tasty, the glass noodle, and dolsot bibimbop. I also enjoyed their plum wine if you fancy trying something different and "local" to the Koreans. I recently went with a group of 6. We shared a variety of starters (kimchi, pickled veg, an omelette type dish, and glass noddles) and mains (bi bim bop, a hot pot, and rice) along with plum wine and a bottle of what looked like rice wine. Everyone was full and the meal cost £16 per head. This restaurant represents good value for money and has authentic Korean food.

As a Korean, I was interested to introduce my work friends to Korean cuisine. I read some good…read morereviews about this restaurant on 'London Eating' so decided to give it a try. Let me say this place did not meet any of my expectations and I was deeply disappointed. Here's why: 1) Taste wise there was nothing special. It was totally mediocre and well below average. We ordered 8 dishes off their menu and decided to share it as a group. The only thing I enjoyed eating was their jabchae dish but that was about it. 2) Portions were small for the price and we were all left hungry after our meals. We spent approx 25 pounds per person. 3) Food service was incredibly slow. They all came at different times. 4) Food arrived before drinks.

They offer a meal deal for £10.99 ( pho or fried rice, spring or summer rolls, soft drink). Portion sizes are OK rather than ample; also be aware they try and slip you spring rolls ( which aren't great) instead of summer rolls ( which have heft, and are OK). Irritatingly, this has happened to me twice now. Front of house are charming and polite, though. They have a loyalty card system, an advance order system, and a "bulk purchase" approach, where you pre-purchase a certain number of meals. As the business actually started with event catering, this is also a service they offer.

Gourmet Wok may just take the prize for best all round Chinese takeaway in the UK. Certainly the…read morebest I've ever been to. Sure, other takeaways do certain dishes better, but for a chinese banquet or just a chilli beef and rice on a Friday night it's hard to beat. Their prawn toast is particularly good, and they also have a load of special dishes on the menu that you don't often see. And a great big bowl of prawn crackers on the counter for you to munch at while you wait. It's easy enough to find, just down Bell Street on the left as you head up towards Crawley. But they do home delivery, which might be more of a wait, but it'll be worth it.

We got there quite early, around 6pm, and first thing you notice are stools all along the fire spit to watch your chicken cook. If you prefer a less entertaining view, there are tables on the back side of the restaurant. Sometimes it is best to have a simple menu. Chicken, a few sides, dessert and drinks. For 2 people, a whole chicken is just about right. They offer you two sauces, hot and some smokey sauce and to be honest the chicken is so well seasoned I didn't really need any of the sauces. It was really damn good chicken. We ordered a side of fries to share - they were quite good when they're hot. There were a lot of small pieces towards the end you don't even bother with. They were okay. As we were sitting at the bar, I saw them prepare the apple pie and luckily I had room for dessert. They brought us nearly a quarter slice of the pie with two scoops of ice cream! It was really, really good.. could've made it a meal in itself.

So today when we were considering where to eat for lunch we decided to finally try it out. BEST DECISION. My boyfriend and I shared a half chicken, along with the butter lettuce and avocado salad, corn on the cob, and a slice of apple pie. All the food was incredible!! Both of us had plenty to eat and weren't so full we felt sick. As if the food wasn't enough to convince us to want to come back again, the atmosphere was great. The decor is rustic and simple. The kitchen is open and surrounded by a bar where you can watch the chefs work (we opted to sit there and observe...it was mesmerizing). If you are a larger party there are bigger tables in the back too. And their staff were so friendly and conversational. Will definitely be going back!
