Honestly the food here is mid and dinner is pricier than some Korean restaurants that are much better.
I ordered the grilled meat and 17-vegetable set. It was about 2600 yen per person because we got beef instead of pork. We also ordered the cheese-kimchi chijimi, ginger ale and beer.
Off the bat, they drop banchan on the table--pa muchim (green onion salad), yangpa jangajji (pickled onions), kkaenip jangajji (pickled perilla), kimchi, daikon, miso sauces, sesame oil with salt, and I think that's it. The pickled onions, perilla and daikon were great. Everything else was below average IMO. Their kimchi is not good. Of course, you can order as much banchan as you want.
The meat was good--we had thinly sliced beef in a soy sauce and one in a gojuchang sauce. The volume of vegetables is amazing and ofc their main attraction.
The cheese-kimchi chijimi was above average, and half portion was actually very generous for 950 yen I think.
Finally, at the end of the meal, they will make a smoothie or a juice with your left over leafy greens. The smoothie was actually good.
The service was great and the restaurant is nice, sitting on the second floor of a building overlooking the main street of Shinokubo.
Spent 8,000 yen here between two people and honestly probably will...

I like chijimi and chukumi bibimbap, so this is always my favorite. The waiter cooks all the meat for you, so you don't have to worry. After the meal, they make a smoothie with the leftover vegetables. It is a vegetable juice based smoothie, not bitter...
Read moreFood here was really great. We got a combo where we got a large plate loaded with vegetables and we each choose a type of pork belly. The remaining vegetables we don’t finish get turned into a green smoothie at end.
There isn’t an English menu, but Google translate does the trick. We had some communication gaps with a staff, but luckily there was another staff that...
