A lovely dining experience and delicious food.We managed to book for dinner quite easily.The staff were very polite and attentive and catered for all our needs.The food was very delicious and I highly recommend the beef bulgogi!We enjoyed grilling our own food whilst having a chat and it definitely makes you take your time with the meal and enjoy the conversations.I suppose if I had to be picky, I would say perhaps a larger grill would have been nice if you like us order a bit of everything on the menu.

What a gem this restaurant is for Reading.A delicious selection of food, great portion sizes and fantastic service. It really was the best Korean food we have ever had.Thank you to all the staff for the experience, we highly recommend, and look forward to returning soon!

No reason to not recommend! Really quality food; best portions I've had at a restaurant that wasn't a buffet. They offer a wide variety of meats and a great range of vegetarian options(I think some vegan ones too). Quick service, and very helpful staff. If you choose their group/assorted options, you get waay more for less.Atmosphere/architecture is both casual and elegant. Good for meet ups or birthdays. The tiling and wallpaper is beautiful, so a few nice photo spots

This restaurant truly goes above and beyond for their customers. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, but they were so attentive, helping us use the BBQ and giving us great tips about what to order. We had a friend who is celiac and they made sure to walk us through each item and recommend us those that would be the tastiest. Can't wait to go back!

It was my first time trying Korean cuisine. The food was absolutely delicious and staff were v helpful. Food arrived quickly, was fresh and perfectly cooked. Every dish had a different and interesting flavor. I struggle to pick a favorite, kimchi pancake maybe?Will be back for sure!

Highly recommend the Bibim naeng myun.Located in the outskirts above a hill, can be quite a walk.Service was fast and the servers were friendly, food was good but the Bibim naeng myun was the real highlight.Few things to note, BBQ required a minimum of 2 people and that sides was not complimentary which is usually available in Korean restaurants. They do give a free dessert as well.

This restaurant is run by the Korean, so the foods are really Korea traditional foods. They'll served you a free snack before meal. We've ordered three kind of foods.1) Stone bowl rice is mixed with many vegetables & one selected meat. They served with Korea chilli sauce separately, just mixed it together the rice what you need.2) Mixed cold noodle is good taste with chilli sauce, some cucumber, slice of beef & half an boiled egg.3) Oxtail soup with rice, lovely hot soup with some green onion, & sure you'll like it.

The first time we ordered the food was really tasty so we ordered two other times but our last two visits were literally disappointing. The portions are small and unnecessarily overpriced. Last time my egg was overly cooked so it was grey I couldn't eat it and my avocado rolls weren't properly done. My friend ordered Katsu Chicken and he was satisfied with the taste but it was small portion again and the special fried rice he ordered was supposed to have prawns in it with chopped vegetables but we couldn't find any prawns in it whatsoever. I am not really sure about ordering again after these.
