The Samgyup 31 — Restaurant in Bacolod

Main dish review

•Egg roll - 3pcs lang, bland, nothing special •Tangsuyuk - bland pork with [streetfood like] sauce, best remedy: dip sa honey soy sauce •Odeng spicy - it was good, just the right level of spiciness •Kimchi jjigae - kimchi alone, no tofu & other stuff, it was good, can be used as dip for the meat •Kimchi fried rice - single serving of kimchi fried rice served on a sizzling plate, best to transfer right away coz the rice gets burnt easily •Bulgogi fried rice - same with kimchi fried rice •Egg fried rice - okay lang, kinda bland •Shrimp tempura - 3pcs only, best dipped in soy sauce •Fried chicken honey soy - our fave! very juicy, love the sauce •Mandu (meat) - unavailable that time

Side dish review •Japchae - tasty but the noodles were too oily/glossy •Cheese sauce - we don’t recommend it at all •Eggplant - it was okay, we still miss the one from Sodam •Kimchi - sooo goood

Beef review •Angus beef - overly thin but it was a good thing since it easily gets cooked •Bulgogi beef - I don’t think they served this to us •Spicy beef - Angus beef topped with spicy sauce, not marinated at all, not really spicy •Beef mushroom roll - bland •Marinated bulgogi - tastes like chorizo haha

Ambiance no music at all but they sing and dance for the birthday celebrants cute wash area & comfort room

Service fast but needs follow up sometimes you need to be very patient especially when they’re packed (they apologize naman for the delays) Friendly staff, recommends good main dishes Owner was attentive as well

What to expect -small serving of main dishes (since good for 1 lang sya, they also serve this one at a time per customer) -side dishes are mostly served upon request (i.e. japchae, eggplant, cheese sauce, gochujang, rice) -fast refill of side dishes (but needs follow up sometimes) -they’re still on soft opening so they only accept cash as mode of payment -reservations are highly encouraged (we arrived around 7pm without reservation, good thing there was a cancelled reservation so they gave the table to us na lang) -you only have 2 hours to eat (for the unlimited samgyup promo only) -cut off is at 8:15pm and last order is at 8:30pm -they also serve melona ice...

Unlimited Beef 7.5/10 - the place doesn’t feel the cleanest. They guys mopping up the floors while we’re eating, which didn’t feel the most sanitary.

There were cockroaches crawling on the table. We informed the crew about it and they give us a discount; the child is free.

The side dishes are self service open buffet style, and that doesn’t feel the most sanitary.

Words to Ponder✍🏽

When you're choosing someone.

When you decide to choose someone to spend the rest of your life with, don’t just focus on the spark, the passion, or how good it feels when things are easy.

That part fades, and what’s left, the part that truly matters, is who they are when things get hard.

Pay attention to how they respond when they’re angry, how they handle failure, and how they treat people who can't offer them anything.

Watch how they carry themselves in the quiet, uneventful moments.

Listen to the way they speak about their dreams, how they approach problems, and whether they take accountability when they’re wrong.

Because that’s the version of them you’ll live with far more often than the one who holds your hand on date nights.

Romance is important, but it won’t raise your kids, get through sleepless nights, pay bills, or solve the hard conversations.

But their character will.

Emotional maturity will.

Their integrity will.

Choose someone who respects your voice, who makes space for your growth, and pushes you to be better, but never tears you down.

Their patterns will shape your mental health.

Their energy will fill your home. Their decisions will influence your peace. And their love or lack of it will echo through every season of your life.

Don’t settle for someone who just wants to be loved, choose someone who knows how to love well.

In the end, the greatest realization is this, who you choose to build a life with doesn’t just change your relationship status ....

It changes your entire...

We just would like to share what happened to us on Saturday while having dinner there. You guys have the worst customer service ever! Sorry but no sorry. We cancelled some of our appointments because we were excited to feature you guys in our blog. So instead of writing bad about your restaurant, I thought it would be best to air out our frustrations here. We came there as customers, and as customers we expect that you guys treat everyone fairly. But the treatment we got is far beyond worst. Your crew didn't mind checking out our orders, nor making actions to our follow-up's. The food came slow! as in very slow! We even need to raise our hands, and call out the crew just to make a follow-up MULTIPLE times. We were sitted to what they perceived as "VIP"and the crew & the owner keep on checking them & offering them meats although they have not requested it. So triggering! We complained about it and a lady server even gaslighted us saying that we will have our turn (referring to that staff who is pushing the meat & side dishes cart), like we wouldn't be standing if that staff is passing by our aisle. Duh! Your crew only check to the "VIP"s. What we got is a ridiculously slow service, tons of "SORRYS" but no actions, Bland meats & discrimination. The introductory price is not even worth it! You call your restaurant premium grill? You guys are obviously dreaming!

I myself, and my blog have featured alot of Samgyup houses in Bacolod, and so far, this restaurant...
