ホンデポチャ 池袋店 — Restaurant in Tokyo

We stumbled upon this Korean restaurant and decided to go in, but the place seemed quite empty with many vacant tables. We pressed the button at the entrance to get assistance, and a waiter came over and asked if we had a reservation. My friend replied that we didn't and asked if that was okay. The waiter then went to consult with another colleague, a foreign waiter who spoke English. The same question was asked again, and we reiterated that we didn't have a reservation and inquired if it was still possible to dine there. They informed us that if we wanted to dine there, we would have to pay 6000 yen just for a table, which is outrageous.

I used to go here back when it was buta.com and they had great service. It used to be all you can eat with self serve but now the owner seems to have changed and the business has been replaced by what there is now.

Despite being a “Korean” bbq, kimchi costed extra and the all you can eat set doesn’t come with rice. I went with a friend and when we asked for more kimchi we were told we have to pay for that. As well, we were also charged an おとし fee without being told what it is or why. The set looks as if it’s a cheap 1500 yen dinner but it quickly adds up!

Won’t be going back again,...

Went here for dinner on a friday. It would be best to get a reservation if you can especially during weekends. A great place to visit if you're craving for Korean Food. They have an extensive menu. You can order thru a qr code on the table. We ordered the Thick Cut Samgyeopsal, Spicy Braised Chicken Soup, Kimchi Cheese Pancake, Shrimp & Cheese Pancake & Super Spicy Yangyeom Chicken. The food were delicious. Enjoyed our meal here. Will definitely...
