Sushi • Kebab • European • Vegetarian

"There was no alcohol available on the lunch menu, and I’m unsure if the evening menu includes drinks. Additionally, there were no desserts listed. While we waited, our coffees took quite some time to arrive, and by 1:10 PM, the final meal was served with a reminder that we needed to finish by 1:30 PM. The food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. We didn’t use the restrooms, so I can’t comment on their availability or location. Having read other reviews, we were expecting a good experience, and overall, we enjoyed our visit, though we would have appreciated a bit more time to savor our meals. On a side note, we parked in the lot behind the bus station and were puzzled by the numerous cars along the access road. When it came time to pay, we discovered that there was no cash option, only card payments, which proved a bit tricky for us. Thankfully, a kind gentleman offered guidance on how to complete the transaction, so be warned if you’re not very tech-savvy like us!"

Kebab • Sushi • Asian • Japanese

"We have been several times to this restaurant and have enjoyed it in the past. The other day we went and had the sushi sashimi platter and mixed tempura and they were fine. But we ordered green tea and were served Jasmine tea. When I queried this with the server (not Japanese no one who works there is Japanese) she said that that was all they had. I can assure you that Jasmine tea is not green tea and it is not good enough to put green tea on the menu and serve jasmine instead. The worst part of the meal was the beef ramen. Absolutely Horrible. In a creamy white soup with no flavour apart from cream milk? Something insipid and white in any case. I think the server said that it had blended tofu in it or something like that? I have lived in Japan for a year and worked in Japanese restaurants after that for over 3 years and I can assure you that I have never seen, or tasted anything like that. The beef in it was stir fried for goodness sake! 3 minute noodles you cook at home have more flavour. I heard a neighbouring table ask if one of the 3 dishes on their table was actually beef teriyaki so maybe the kitchen was having a bad day. After watching them take down the 'CASH ONLY FOR SATURDAY LUNCH ' signs and paying the added 10% service charge for 2 people at 1630 in the afternoon we will never return. I did feed back that the ramen wa not good enough as we left and the server said that they 'd tell the kitchen. Just don 't go, or if you do see if they 're serving green tea instead of jasmine and just don 't, whatever you do, order the ramen or you can always try it at home by boiling milk and adding instant noodles to that. Seriously that bad. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £30–40 Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2 Recommended dishes: Sushi, Tempura"

"I liked the warm welcome. helpful staff. first the second time I tried the famous Bibimbab court, which is still best (I know from two so far). delicious rice, seasonal veg, it's summer so I liked that it's spinat used. fried egg is a...must be a very nutritious meal with raw veg mixed with hot rice and ice. the personal told me that they hand make their chillie sauce, that is not too hot and a great accompaniment. I ate on her tables outside, as they can only take with you at the moment. very good prices, considering that this is next to the museum and all the loaded tourist."

Ohaio

➤ 1 Coombe Rd, KT3 4PX, Kingston upon Thames, United Kingdom

Thai • Asian • Sushi • Chinese

"Small sushi and general East Asia takeaway place just by entrance into New Malden train station, I always get food here whenever in the area to get rare items in the Korean supermarkets as this area is the best place to go in Surrey for Asian foods that usually can't be found anywhere else. The owners of Ohaio are actually Korean, so you can get a good choice of Korean dishes here and even Thai food specials as well as the traditional Japanese sushi. They have a lunchtime special on various things, but that is only up until 3pm, great meal deals and value for money. For anybody who loves Asian food, this is heavenly and I will definitely be back."

The Murderers

➤ 2 8 Timber Hill, Norwich NR1 3LB, United Kingdom, Bowthorpe

Beer • Asian • Tapas • Korean

"We indulged in a delightful array of dishes at Kimchi, including the Grilled Tofu Dol Sot, Two Spicy Pork Dol-Sot, Jinju, and a generously shared portion of Chilli Korean Fried Chicken with Pineapple Mayonnaise. The experience was splendid, and our friends from London deemed it the best Dol-Sot they've had in years. The quick and fresh service added to the enjoyment, and despite being full, the restaurant maintained its lively atmosphere. It's no surprise that securing a table at this establishment is a challenge, given its status as, in my opinion, the best Asian food spot in Norwich."

Ginger And Garlic

Asian • Korean • Chinese • Japanese

"Myself and husband were in Cheltenham for a short break and on our first night we decided to go for Korean food. After a short but very wet and cold walk from the parking we were really ready to have some decent hot food. We arrived around 6.30pm on a Monday evening without booking and the restaurant was already at least half full which must mean something. The menu was fairly extensive so we certainly had a lot to chose from including Korean BBQ. In the end we decided upon 3 starters and 2 mains. The service was very friendly and reasonably fast. We did ask for everything to come at the same time as I like to have a variety all at once, however, the starters came plate by plate quite soon whereas the mains took a bit more time. Instead of waiting for the mains we started on the starters so they wouldn't go cold. The food was pretty good, in particular the stir fried pak choi was amazing, cook perfectly with lot of garlic. The sweet Korean chicken wings were also pretty decent, we both enjoyed them. The Tteokbokki with cheese was for me a bit underwhelming (I thought they were gonna be covered in cheese) but husband loved them. Then I had the Kimchi Jjigae which was fabulous, I loved the deep flavours with extra chilis and lots of vegetables. I think that pork belly bits were not needed. All in all we enjoyed a lovely meal and have no regrets. It was a wonderful little restaurant with good service and even a little treat at the end which I really appreciated. If we lived closer we certainly would be visiting again as a treat to try other dishes. Prices were also reasonable and we left EXTREMELY full. Maybe less is more. Thank you to the restaurant staff."

"I highly recommend trying their BBQ Rib Eye Steak and Seafood Pancake. Both dishes were cooked to perfection and were incredibly flavorful. The service was excellent, with attentive and friendly staff making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The atmosphere of the restaurant was also fantastic, with a cozy and inviting ambiance that made for a great dining experience. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delicious meal in a great setting. It was definitely worth the price and I will definitely be returning in the future."

Kebab • Cafés • Asiatic • Seafood

"Went during lunch time, there were limited options only as apparently the main chef is not available all the time. Food was not fresh and appeared to be refried and re-heated and even then took a long time to arrive. Salad offered with the meal was very smelly. Our free drink with the meal was not offered. Seeing other reviews it appears that evening service might be better but it was a disappointing lunch. Express lunch cost between £7.50-£9.50 and a cult of Jasmine Tea at £2.40 they don’t do pots!"

Bibigo Soho Bar & Dining

➤ 58-59 Great Marlborough Street London, W1F 7JY, United Kingdom

Bbq • Meat • Korean • Seafood

"Korean cuisine is new for me. It's been so trendy lately with the Kimchi burgers, Korean barbecues and Bulgogi mentioned everywhere, it was time to try it. I was expecting it to be good, and worth the wait. And it was. Apart from the Kimchi itself, which didn't particularly float my boat it is after all, cold fermented vegetables... Soho is inundated with restaurants from every cuisine imaginable, so it took some review-reading to settle on Bibigo . Quite a modern, sleek dining room, with wooden tables, bricked walls, and an open kitchen. Staff were lovely, although the door at the entrance is a bit of a push, and the hostess just watched as I struggled. Never mind... It sounded like...read more"

"A new place in town for those who like pan-asian food with good Korean, Japanese and Singaporean dishes. The restaurant is bright, airy and spacious and is particularly well known for providing customers with board games to play while they are waiting for their food. Price per person: £20–30 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5"

Oki Japanese Takeaway

➤ 77 The Broadway, Barnet, United Kingdom

Sushi • Ramen • Korean • Japanese

"Average at best I'm afraid. The butter chicken was OK, wasn't a sweet mess like some places but it also wasn't the indulgent spice taste we like. The chicken Tikka was again OK and I'm pretty sure one of the pieces was on the verge of being undercooked. The Chicken Biryani was also not up to scratch. I understand the desire to be different to stand out but none of the dishes were to our taste."

Arang

Asian • Cakes • Korean • Barbecue

"Wanted to try Tteokbokki for the first time and this didn’t disappoint. Food was absolutely delicious, we also tried an octopus stew which was tasty and spicy. But the customer service is what let me down. We were told we could only use our table for an hour since we came with no reservation, which was fine, since we needed to be gone within 40 minutes to see a movie. However once we sat down nobody came to take our order for 15 minutes. Once we finally were able to order, the food came quickly enough but we were then given no cutlery and had to stand up to go and ask a server for cutlery because nobody would come by. After delaying us so much to eat, the wait staff still came by to hurry us twice. I’ll return because the food was so good but if I have another bad customer service experience unfortunately I’ll just have to try another restaurant"

Takayama

➤ United Kingdom, IP1 1TH, Ipswich

Sushi • Korean • Seafood • Japanese

"We visited on a whim after attending the heritage day in Ipswich, we had not booked but were seated almost immediately, downstairs by the window. We ordered starters, mains and BUBBLE TEA!!! The best bubble tea! Loyalty cards too : Our starters, calamari, octopus salad and avocado salad. All looked amazing. Loved the calamari and avocado though not a fan of the octopus personal preference. The mains, we both ordered ramens. Chicken for one, seafood for the other, absolutely delicious! This is a restaurant where you definitely eat with your eyes. It was awesome to be in view of the kitchen, larger parties ordering lots of food, and the robot delivering Birthday wishes. Definitely a go to for a celebration, though you need to be seated downstairs to gain the full experience. The service is always excellent and we cannot wait to revisit. Our only query was the pricing, given that we ate at lunchtime the ramen is priced somewhat differently to that if you eat later, and we were charged the later slightly more expensive price. The food was delicious and plentiful and what we ordered for 2, was enough for 3, as we took home the remainder to pass on to another to try. Excited for a celebration so that we may revisit and definitely a go to if you are ever in town and fancy a bubble tea as a beverage. We can highly recommend the specials."

Soup • Meat • Asian • Korean

"Great food, fast service and good menu choice. Took my sisters as they love Korean food and we’re originally from birmingham. They heard of new Malden being the next Korean hub from social media so when they came to visit me and my partner in Kingston we took them here. Really great food and well marinated meats. Really happy with the selection but all Korean BBQs can total up so deffo worth doing on special occasions Bit of a stir up with the bill as we paid for a higher bill by accident but the lady sorted it out for us when we walked back in"

Tea Bun

Tea • Thai • Asian • Seafood

"Fantastic and varied menu with good prices. We didn't even know that Tea Bun existed and just happened to go by while on the market, so decided to stop for lunch. So glad we made it! I went for the ducks bao rolls that were so full of taste and the salad that came with was so fresh! My first time, bubbles try tea... interesting and the mango was very refreshing. I will definitely come back as I am a huge lawn lover, so would love to give her an attempt. Thanks also the wonderful staff x"

Korea House

➤ 129a High Road, Beeston NG9 2LH, United Kingdom, Broxtowe

Pizza • Seafood • Asiatic • European

"The food was overpriced for what was served on the table. It may provide an interesting way of dining for non-Asian customers. The restaurant limited what could be BBQed on the table (only two dishes) to cut short the dining time. This is not a traditional Korean BBQ, where customers take time to cook and dine at the table. The worst part is they took off our plat and cutlery, before getting our consent. Then it was followed quickly by a bill on the table, and told us: 'in the next 5 minutes, the table will need to be ready for the next booking '. This is the worst service experience I 've ever had. It would have been understandable if you could let customers know at the booking, that the table will only be offered for 1.5 hours for dining. Very disappointing. Would never go back again."

"We arrived from London a bit late and without a booking normally I will recommend for you to make a booking at the restaurant is very busy, the staff are very good she find a table for us we set by the sushi bar! Which is the good spot to sit at you can see the chef's working perpear the dishes service was good but I have to wait for my drink and chicken wing for a bit longer The waitress that served us was very nice so come to check on us and let's us know its won't be long as theyre very busy. Food was so delicious and noodle soup was yummy. Price is a bit high but food is great quality. My favourite dishes is toboki octopus spicy chicken wings"

Bi Bim Bap Soho

➤ 11 Greek Street, City of London,Westminster, United Kingdom

Soup • Meat • Ramen • Seafood

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bibimbap Soho in London, and it was an exceptional culinary experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm, friendly service and a vibrant, bustling atmosphere that perfectly captured the essence of Korean dining. NOTE: THIS RESTAURANT DOESNT TAKE BOOKINGS AND ITS WALK IN WITH A WAIT. WE WERE 4 PEOPLE AND HAD TO WAIT FOR 40 MINS. Great vegetarian options and they even do them without eggs. The menu offers an impressive variety of bibimbap options, each meticulously prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I opted for the classic tofu and mushroom bibimbap and Jap Chae and it did not disappoint. The sizzling stone bowls ensure that every bite remains hot and flavorful, and the balance of textures and flavors is spot on. Additionally, their selection of side dishes, like kimchi and pickled radishes, complements the main course wonderfully. In summary, Bibimbap Soho is a gem in the heart of London, offering a truly authentic and delicious Korean dining experience. Whether you're a longtime fan of Korean cuisine or a first-time visitor, Bibimbap Soho is sure to impress with its fantastic food, friendly service, and vibrant atmosphere. Highly recommended!"

Arirang

➤ 31-32 Poland Street, City of London,Westminster, United Kingdom

Soup • Fish • Asian • Korean

"Eating at Arirang restaurant was a fantastic experience from beginning to end. I was impressed by the friendly greeting from the staff. They were very pleasant, although I didn't give them a full 5 stars for service because they allowed me to order online without much interaction or checking on me. Every dish I sampled was delicious and generously portioned. The flavors were authentic and exquisite, showcasing the talent of the chefs. The Korean barbecue was beautifully presented, providing a unique and interactive dining experience. The menu offered a wide range of choices to cater to vegetarians and meat lovers alike. The attention to detail in each dish was evident, with top-quality ingredients. While not the most romantic setting, the restaurant is perfect for a casual meal, gathering with friends, or a special occasion. The decor and lighting were a bit outdated but still clean and functional. I would definitely come back to try more dishes, particularly the spicy mushrooms - they were delicious!"

Koreana

➤ 40A King Street West, M3 2WY, Manchester, United Kingdom

Bbq • Salad • Chicken • European

"So despite a previous disappointment we have subsequently returned every 4 to 6 weeks because we live locally and generally have an enjoyable visit. Not this time unfortunately. The spicy kimchi casserole was bland, certainly lacking any hint of 'spicy '. Even worse was the spicy chicken which, in addition to having no spice, was hot but chewy on the outside and cold on the inside suggesting it could have been cooked from frozen rather than cooked fresh. When we told the waitress it is normally crunchy on the outside and hot throughout she offered to have a fresh one made, only to hastily return to advise that the dish is not crispy because of the sauce on top this is nonsense as we have ordered this dish on several previous visits and it was nothing like what was served this evening. I 'm not sure whether the chef was feeling lazy, whether they took umbrage at the constructive feedback or whether they actually hail from Korea but the response from the kitchen was unacceptable. My wife then complained about the chicken to the waiter who brought the bill; the waiter simply said 'sorry '. Yet throughout our meal the table next to us was being fawned over? I appreciate restaurants are going through a tough time but so are their customers; why should we accept a substandard dish in return for our own hard earned money? Sorry Koreana but I am struggling to contemplate returning after this visit!"
