Cook N Beer — Restaurant in Gold Coast City

Complete utter waste of money! My boyfriend and I just had their Soft Tofu Seafood Stew with a side of Rice and 6 Fried Dumplings and Sizzling Spicy Pork with a side of rice and 10pcs Steamed Dumplings with a can of soda and we are so disappointed and angry. First off, the Soft Tofu Seafood Stew was so bland, they could of at-least seasoned the soup to give it some taste and the “seafood” was pathetic. The Stew had about four baby finger sized pieces of disgusting imitation crab. I expected to get some freshly cooked squid rings but instead the stew consisted of smelly baby octopus. The stew was also full of what I’ve deduced as canned muscles that were overcooked and smelt so bad I gagged at their god awful smell. I get it’s a Soft Tofu Stew but tofu shouldn’t disintegrate when you try to take a scoop… Now onto the Fried Dumplings. I ordered the 6pcs Fried Dumplings because they were described as “Deep fried dumplings stuffed with vegetables” now as I am vegetarian and get very sick anytime I consume meat, I always double check descriptions of food to make sure I am not eating meat which is poison to my weak stomach, unfortunately after taking a bite I discovered that the dumplings were filled with meat! I have never been deceived by a restaurant like this before. Then onto the Sizzling Spicy Pork, for $25 the portion size was absolutely abysmal and had very little pork. The steamed dumplings were stuffed into a small container which caused them to sweat and stick together and then went on to fall apart as you’d try to pick them up. The food in total tasted like it was precooked a week ago and frozen and reheated in the microwave. All together I spent $100 on my partner and myself and the only thing we enjoyed was the extremely small serving and extremely overpriced side of Kimchi, which was most...

We used to eat here last year remember that it was a great place with great food affordable price and nice staffs. I returned to the place after we landed all the way from sydney. And the food was very disappointing, not sure if they changed the chef or changed owner but it tasted like food is full of msg ! I could make better soup than them. And price has gone up much higher and low quality meat. Manager or owner i'm not sure (fat guy wearing glasses) was extremely rude. Not recommended and never will go again.

Reply to owner** No the one serving me last year was definitely not you cuz he was polite and good looking but you are not. And the food review is based on the actual food that suck so bad i already thought it suck from first bite and my friend agree that the taste and quality of the food went down hill this has nothing to do with your rudeness. Also No one said customer is a king just you are rude. Not surprised you don't know how rude you are cuz u don't have a mirror to look at your own face when you speak to customers. I can see most of bad reviews are causing by you. And you should count how many people mention that you are rude /stubborn and learn to accept that its the truth. I don't really care what you say, to be honest cuz i don't have to see or waste my money on ur stupid restaurant again and thats ur lost. Lol keep up with ur rudeness so u continue to lose more customers. Oh Probably u don't care cuz u only aim to get traveller who gonna just stop by ur shop only once anyway . Don't forget to say thanks to ur good location cuz if not with ur one star food and service quality u won't be able to compete with other korean restaurants that has proper chefs who actually know...

2 years later 😊 I saw they opened lunch time again a few weeks ago then no lunch service again 😭 I was planning to come for lunch😔 I used Uber this time for my dinner. I ordered a fried dumplings, chive pancake, Japchae with beef and fried chicken with soy garlic sauce 😋 Some dishes were not suitable for takeaway 😅 The sauce for the pancake was not enough 😓 I loved the chicken 🍗 🤩 It's a very nice sauce 🥳👍🏻 And I liked the flavour of Japchae😘 Just the noodles were quite long 🤣 so it was hard to eat 😅 I’d love to dine in one day😉

A year later 🤗 I had Cheese Duldak w/rice $25 and Soju $15 today 😚 I wanted to have Makgeolli but they didn’t have today 😣 Chicken was not that spicy for me😋 Taste Korean spicy paste (I don’t know the name 😅) 🌶🌶🌶on the menu, I was worried about it’s too spicy to eat 😅 With some fresh salad which was good 👍🏻 I liked it more if some sesame oil on it 😘 I was super full 😮‍💨 I’d love to try their fried chicken next time 🥳🥳

I had Bulgogi beef soup $16.5. The size of the bowl was smaller than I expected 😓 and soup was half of the bowl 🥣 I love soup that’s why ordered this dish….🥲 Taste was goods and I like clear noodle😍, I was full anyway☺️ If it’s lunch deal price, I thought it’s reasonable. Friendly...
