My dining experience here at Jin Joo was very unflattering. First, when we were talking with the receptionist, she mentioned that the fried chicken side dishes have been phased out and instead replaced with ramen (instant ramen) which they have a variety of that you can choose from, it’s mainly Korean instant ramen. After we got seated and they started serving the side dishes and cutlery, I noticed that no rice was served, which was the case in almost all samgyupsal I have eaten before, tho I see other customers eating rice so I think you have to ask for it to be served. Their side dishes were nothing to speak of, no marbled potatoes, no coleslaw, no fish cakes. After that, the meats were served. Their meats are really bland, even the seasoned meats. I actually agree with one of the reviews here that said the seasoning was just put on top of the meat the minute you order as it doesn’t soak up the flavor. They only give you 2 sauces here, actually it’s just one, the samjang sauce and some oil. When we asked for the receipt and showed are PWD ID, the staff said we can no longer have it discounted since it’s already on promotional, since the original price is 999. This was a first for me. I have eaten at other korean grill that cost way less than 699 and they still provide a discount. (She said she mentioned it to us before we got seated but I don’t remember her informing us about it.) For 999, I will probably just go to Vikings. Plus the staff here is not really attentive, you really have to get their attention for everything. They don’t have napkins on the table, either. This is probably the 2nd worst samgyupsal experience of my life. I will not recommend this restaurant to anyone. EAT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Will not be coming back here! Here are the reasons why: 1. I bet youve heard about their unlimited Korean BBQ offer and personally, I dont think it is worth it. They don't serve quality meat and some are just purely a strip of fat. 2. Very slow service! Imagine, we asked for the sauce to be served 8 times! 3. Very rude staff! This is what turned me off the most. First of all, they will serve you more than what you ordered. Since they have a no leftover penalty- you'll need to pay P200 if there's leftover-theyll serve more than what you ordered. When we begged the waiters that we were too full, he forced us to eat the meat. And when we accidentally burnt the meat, one waiter said "Ma'am, kainin nyo yan ha!" Pertaining to the burnt fat. That was just too rude, guys. TOO RUDE. I get the policy but I just found their manner of saying it too rude. Overall, won't be coming back.

Staff was very friendly and service was very fast. Meat quality wasn't bad, however, the seafood is sub standard. The scallop tasted like rubber nerf bullets. You will feel na "dinadaya" ka ng restaurant with their rules and how they serve you. They will force you to eat the first dishes that they serve you, which is jampacked with chicken, before you can order what you want. There is a limit on how much you can order. When you order beef, they will serve 4 pcs of paper-thin beef. They don't serve water and force you to buy bottled water. They also have cleanliness issues as there are multiple cockroaches inside the restaurant. One of which went to our table and into one of the side dishes. Staff was very apologetic and handled it professionally. The staff was also responsive and fast in taking and serving orders. Sadly, would never go back to this place anymore.

Ordered Ala cart to try the better meats. It had no taste and the quality is low I don't know if that's something that's normal in the Philippines but it seems like other restaurants to regardless of price is not good at all. Service is ok. After service fee has been included in the Philippines to most bills the service is not good like it used to be. They'll get paid no matter how good or bad service is. I saw so many stars but it's like that for a lot of places the actually good is not good at all. If you're local maybe that's standard if your foreigner move on. The pans maybe normal for locals but it's real bad like nasty. Even after I cleaned them or they brought new ones same result. Like I said only in the Philippines

We availed the unli promo for 699. We got seated fast naman, however, their service is really slow. You have to make a lot of follow-ups to get what you requested, considering na hindi naman sobrang dami ng tao on that moment. A lot of the food items were BLAND... food was under seasoned. K-chicken was not good. We ordered yangnyeom and yung sauce wasn't even properly coated sa chicken. Looks like they just poured the sauce on top. Without it, it's just a normal fried chicken that is cold. Sobrang tagal din ibigay ng receipt. Kung hindi pa kami magfofollow-up, they wouldn't give it. I've seen busier samgyup places that served their customers well. I expected more from them since hello, they're in Podium!
