The Korean Club Restaurant is not just your ordinary eatery. This comfort of an establishment nestled in between foreign consulates next to Tanjung Aru First Beach heightens the meaning of “Location is Key”. Upon entering, you will be welcomed with the charms of Korean authenticity yet, a sense of familiarity KK-ians know all too well.
The menu is vast filled with Korean delicacies that is hard to pass by, so one will decide to indulge them all. The ‘Kimchi-jjigae’ is a household staple dish, but theirs is particularly special as they incorporate their own in-house kimchi that is prepared fresh daily, which is also available for purchase. This warm stone pot packs immense flavour and just the perfect amount of spice that will get rid of any exhaustion throughout the day. Nicole’s special Bibimbap is also one to take note as Nicole, the owner, prepares it herself table side to add to the already existing homely atmosphere. One of my personal favourites is their ever-changing Banchan selection that will never cease to impress me each time with their bold flavours and ingenuity.
This humble establishment is not just a place to dine in, but it is a complete experience that always make yourself ask the question, “Shall we go to The...

The building used to be a detached house and it retains a homely feel. It’s spacious, light and airy and is tastefully decorated and furnished.

The food arrived freshly cooked, the pork was sizzling and the owner came to suggest how we should mix the dressings into the salad. The food was delicious. We were presented with complimentary hot bean puddings for dessert which we devoured. This is an outstanding restaurant. The atmosphere, food and service are exceptional. We can’t...
Read moreNice garden view one. But in a hot day, you can not enjoy the dining area fully air-conditioned. They receive credit cards but sometimes in no use due to mal connection, But it seems their neglect of maintenance about tele comm systems. Food portions are not generous. Their kitchen needs immediate modernization against kitchen appliances, anti fire system and most of all, hygene!!! Their bathroom is not suitable for group guests, but they seem unirritated even when it would have broken up for a long time and all dining and drinking guests start to feel uncomfortable. The service is a bit slow as usual in any local restaurant there. Food quality is good and comparing to other Korean restaurants in KK, they offer Korean food in a better and more authentic style. Drinking variety is not various but affordable for group guests but considering that Malaysia is an islamic state,...
