Choga Korean Restaurant — Restaurant in Manila

Sunday lunchtime is not that busy. Friendly staff singlehandedly took care of 6 tables; unfortunately for her came almost one after the other. Just like one of the reviewers, I can't understand why you're forced to order a minimum of 2 dakgalbi meals. Somehow got it when the order came out. The serving was not that big; it was just the pan. The chicken admittedly is good, tender, savory, and spicy, though we ordered only level 1, but the heat seemed to be 3 or more (mind you, I'm fond of and used to eating spicy food).

The waitress was very friendly with our kid and she even offered to hold the baby so we can eat comfortably. That would have been nice but our baby was still too small to pass to a stranger. I'd say the place is kid-friendly given our experience BUT make no mistake, it is a go-to place for after-party hours of nearby karaoke/videoke shop customers who wish to fill in their tummies with hot meals after binge drinking the night away.
