Gagahoho — Restaurant in Kowloon

It a really terrible place, which even can’t named as a restaurant. We walked in at 9:15pm, and had asked the staff the closing time ,she told as the tag at the entrance.(according to the government guild line restaurants allowed to open until 12), we were told the place is close at 11pm and the staff need us to just do the order once. We think it’s acceptable to do the good order just once and should be fine to have enough time to finish the food. However every went every badly at 10pm, all the staff start to tiny up the the place, put all the chairs on the tables( I felt like trapped in a chaotic room, all the chairs are upsides down) , when the lady doing cleaning the floor, her elbow hit my boyfriend five times and without said any sorry. At 10:30pm, we still eating our dinner, some staff had started to change their clothes in front of the cashier desk, and even worse, they asked we had to leave and stop finishing our meal since it’s...

Cheap it maybe and it'll fill your stomach, yes. But when you step out of this restaurant you'll be wondering what you just had.

Decided to give this Korean restaurant a review. It was a regular spot for us pre-covid and i would have given it a 3.5/4 but after the lockdowns it has been consistently bad.

Food is reheated and lazily prepared lacking basic flavours of the dishes. Service is non-existent not that I would expect much, but basic service such as acknowleging, replying, greeting in a basic manners are absent.

Beef stew soup has a lump of microwaved beef tasteless, bland and soup is seasoned with MSG. Beef Japchae had all the noodles broken into unserviceable small bits, hallmarks of being overcooked or microwaved, it was again very bland and uninspiring.

It's not a place where you expect much, but it still lets you down. I'd say this place was much...

Essentially you get what you pay for. Rather cheap comfort food but don’t expect any miracles.

The spicy pork lunch for 78 HKD is not a bargain (compared to the pre 2020 price of c. 60 HKD at Little Korea town) but also not the 100+ charged at the more upscale restaurants on main streets.

Out of the three dishes the spicy pork was a solid 4/5. Good pork quality and size of the dish, well seasoned and quite authentic. Japchae was a 2/5 overpowered the dished with black pepper and noodle slightly over cooked. 1/5 for the kimchi stew: too sour, very much localized taste and not matching ingredients.

Sad to see that the previously Korean run restaurants in that street all got replaced by other owners and Non Korean chefs. It has a huge impact on taste and authenticity.

Service was abysmal - staff more interested to chat with each other than...
