gogobebe — Restaurant in Osaka

I was in Osaka for the Mamamoo+ fancon and stayed for the rest of the week for vacation. I was wandering around Kuromon market when I saw this place named after a Mamamoo song so of course I stopped in. They have menus with English so ordering was not an issue. It's clrearly a family run restaurant. The food is very good and the kimchi is exactly the way I prefer it, fairly young so it still has some firmness and not overly spicy so it doesn't overwhelm the food. I was able to use google translate to converse with the son who designed the place (and he's the moomoo who picked the name) and I learned that the father makes the kimchi in house. The ginseng chicken soup and samgyeopsal are great. I was surprised to find such authentic Korean food in Osaka. The service was warm and attentive despite the language barrier. I highly recommend this restaurant, especially if you're a...

Good food. Quiet and cosy environment.

Not sure how authentic it is as I am not Korean, but a lot of other reviews from apparent Koreans state it's very authentic. Either way, I know we had a hearty meal that was very tasty.

There is limited English from the couple that run it but we got by with pointing and using Google translate on some of the menu items.

The food did take a little while to come out even though we were the only people in the restaurant, but nothing excessively long.

The japchae was delicious. The kimchi assortment was really good. Not super spicy but with a real good fresh crunch to each type of kimchi. (Cabbage, zucchini and radish).

The samgyupsal was good for 2 people and...

We saw the reviews and “needed” to check out the place ourselves, it was pouring rain but we still went… It was worth it getting wet for this place!!!

It was such a gem of a restaurant, the best Korean food we’ve ever had (and we tried quite a few Korean restaurants), everything we tasted was just amazing, so full of flavors and just delicious, the lady owner (I assume) is the kindest and the sweetest person we’ve met in Osaka
