"good for a korean quick fix in megamall" (4 Stars) At the end of our meal, I was offered a free coupon for a dessert on our next visit if I write a google review. This was my original review as I was being observed by the waiter while typing the review. After typing the said 4-Star review, he half-jokingly mentioned to me that it should be a 5-star review. It would be unfair to the community if a google local guide can easily be bribed by an ice cream dessert. So because of this, I was more than encouraged to write a comprehensive review of this restaurant. Details of Visit: Around 1430H, 2 pax. Location: The restaurant is conveniently located in the 3rd floor of Megamall across Pizzahut. Restaurant: When we first entered, we were told that the table we picked was not functioning and we were offered a different table. The exhaust hood on the grill was set too low and can't be adjusted making it quite hard to cook large pieces of meat. Cover Charge: Around Php 500.00 to Php 600.00 per head Food: 6/10, The vegetables for grilled meat were not drained properly, rice is soggy. Tip: Check the bottom of the table while cooking, the table where we were seated was leaking oil from the meat we were cooking, it ended up staining our shoes. Final Thoughts: Value for money is fair. Will I come back again? No. They should stop inviting people to give a review in exchange for a coupon for their next visit.

It’s been a while since I last ate here (also because we have our go-to samgyup place in Megamall, but we decided to try this one this time). We arrived at around 6:30 pm, and there wasn’t a long queue, which was nice because there’s usually a line every time we pass by the restaurant. We ordered their Feast BBQ set for two. The food was great, though we were disappointed with the service. We had to ask multiple times including to 2-3 staff members and the manager for items to be served, and we had to follow up to check if our order was complete, as it was our first time ordering the set. (By the way, the rest of the sides were served only after we had already eaten the meat.) This eventually caused us to lose our appetite. In addition, I hope these issues can be addressed so that future diners will enjoy a smoother and more attentive dining experience. At least it was nice to try, but never again. :)

This is our favorite samgyup resto. Walang tapon sa side dishes. But we keep finding something to complain about this particular branch. First time. Small serving of dishes included in set meals. Not the same with SM North branch. This time. Lettuce used in lettuce salad was mapakla. For some reason, I didnt enjoy the sweet sauce as much as I do in SM north branch. Lastly, the oil from the grill was leaking under the table and made a mess to our footwear. They cleaned it up but it was such a bummer experience. It was dinner and the oil was already there under the table when we seated. They cleaned when asked only. We didnt know where it was coming from then. I bet it has been there since their opening but they neglected it. Im not coming back to this branch.

First time namin ng friends ko here at Soban and super nag enjoy kami. From the food, atmosphere and the service are all exemplary. Tho side dishes and rice lang ang unli, the quality of their meats naman are thumbs up. Part of the package also is their dessert, forgot the name tho but it has ice cream on top just like the picture and with the taste of peanut butter and mango slices. Special thanks to Jaico one their staff who served us attentively. And last but not the least was they offered us a fragrance free linen spray para hindi mag amoy samgyup ang clothes paglabas ng store. Hoping that we can come back soon 'coz it was all worth it💯

Awesome food. Unlike other Korean restaurants, the service here was fast, the server was attentive-automatically refilled side dishes whenever you consumed it. ONE THING TO NOTE. Please know the name of your sever. Someone asks us to give a review-suggested to put his name in it in exchange of a free ice cream coupon that can be used on our next visit. Good thing my friend gave me a heads up that he was not the one who served us. In the end I told him that I've put the right person in the review but he never gave us the coupon :( I almost made a mistake but here's the right one: Special thanks to Justine for the superb service. 😘😘😘

There are 3 things that Iike here and I can only find here at Soban: their soup, their caramelized anchovy and peanuts/ Myeolchi-ttangkong-bokkeum, and the perilla leaves. I always ask for refills for these items. They offer packaged menu for pairs and for bigger groups. Their meat serving is generous. You can take home your left overs too. The servers are nice but they get busy and it becomes hard to get their attention. The floor is slippery because of the oil from the grill so careful when you walk. They will offer you linen spray before leaving to rid off the smokey scent on your clothes. You will like it here too!
