Warung Korea Pop — Restaurant in Jakarta

Super close from Wisma GKBI or Gedung BRI, been here few times with my colleagues. They do improve their food quality, which is really good. But they have a big big issue with their KITCHEN MANAGEMENT and TIME EFFCIENCY.

My friends and I ordered Budae Jiggae this noon and we have waited for almost 55 mins. This is the third time and all we got just apologizes from the waitress. FYI!!! They serve raw ingredients of Budae Jiggae on the pot and we cook the soup on our table, WHICH MEANS WE WAITED THE CHEF / KITCHEN STAFF PUT ALL RAW VEGGIES, UNCOOKED HAM AND GOCHUJANG FOR 50 MINS!

We complained that this was not right and the waitress said she has told the chef to make the dishes according the order sequence BUT she did emphasize that the chef's working system is : HE MAKE THE EASY DISH FIRST! Dude.................

It's really okay for us to wait for our food but this is make non sense when we have to wait for 50 mins to get the pot ready on our table.

WARUNG KOREA POP you serve good meals and have a very nice waitress, do not ruin your restaurant with inefficient...

Nice place for enjoying food. You can enjoy sushi food at this place. The food quality is good. You can get the real vibe of koren food. They don't have so many choices of food but what ever they have they have the good one. People are humble and great. Hospitality is great. They have good sitting place. They have Group sitting as well as couple sitting windows sitting alone high table sitting as well. They play music with high volume that's really not need what I think. They have big tv on the wall playing English song's.

It was my first visit and I like the food so overall it's good place to eat.

They serve good quantity of food so be aware ordering food. Try to go with less choice if only two or 3 people.

We got there with 2 person and order 3 varient of food and it was lot and we can't finish. The whole foods cost...

Pergi ke sini salah satunya karena rekomendasi dari akun @darihaltekehalte tapi akan jadi kunjungan yang pertama dan terakhir kami.

Buat kalian yang Muslim dan Halal Lifestyle Enthusiast, aku kasih tau dulu kalo pasta cabe atau gochujjang yang dipake di sini ada alkoholnya 0.11% Sebelum kami datang kami sudah cari tau dulu sebelumnya apakah makanannya aman untuk kami konsumsi. Berdasarkan info yg didapat temanku aman. Oke kami datang, duduk dan konfirmasi lagi ke waiter "Halal kok kak" Oke kami cek buku menu dan sepenglihatanku memang tidak ada menu pork lard atau alkohol (maaf kalau tryt skip ya) Kami makan dengan damai dan bertanya apa ada tempat shalat. Alhamdulillah ada di lt 4. Kami shalat bergantian. Saat shalat kami lihat ada beberapa tumpukan kaleng pasta cabai, saat kami cek, ternyata yang digunakan ada kandungan alkoholnya. HEHEE sayang fotonya ada di kamera temanku. Yasudah abis shalat kami tidak melanjutkan makanannya karena menu yang kami pesan hampir semuanya menggunakan bahan yang sama. Tapi emang makanannya juga tinggal sisa dikit sih HAHA

Untuk ambience restonya menurutku agak kurang karena aku ngerasa tempatnya gelap dan dekorasinya agak sedikit tabrak tabrak yang penting ada korea koreanya. Makananya oke. Topokki dan Odengnya aku kasih 4/5! Kuah odengnya beneran enak. Tapi untuk kimbab dan lainnya 3/5 deh

Ohiya sebelumnya kami memang sudah tahu kok kalau gochujjang yg asli dan otentik biasanya memang mengandung alkohol, tapi kami selalu confirmed dulu ke pihak resto saat akan makan. Ya siapa tau mereka pakai brand yang halal kan

Sebenarnya ini penting juga buat knowledge pegawai resto jepang atau korea kalau halal itu bukan sekedar ada pork atau enggak. Pelajaran juga buat aku dan teman teman kalau emang kepengen bgt makan korea atau jepang atau makanan oriental lainnya ya yg paling aman emang cari yg sudah halal MUI bukan halal karena klaim pribadi. Kalau ttp kekeuh mau makanan begitu yg random ya memang risiko bahan non halal seperti penggunaan mirin, angciu, arak masak, kandungan alkohol dll itu ya pasti ada. Itu risikonya memang walaupun pihak resto sudah bilanh tidak jual pork or lard.

Staffnya gak salah total juga sih mungkin mereka yang kurang paham. Mereka ramah dan pelayanannya cukup baik. Tapi aku agak sedikit terganggu sama pakaiannya aja soalnya roknya pendek bangeeet hehe...
