I recently dined at Romantic Baboy, lured in by the promise of an unlimited Korean BBQ experience, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations.
Let’s start with the main attraction: the food. We opted for the unlimited option, but I found the plain pork to be surprisingly bland and lacking in flavor. With Korean BBQ, one usually anticipates a burst of seasonings and marinades that elevate the experience, but here, it felt like something was missing. Additionally, the amount of banchan served was minimal and uninspired, with nothing that stood out or enhanced the meal.
The service also left much to be desired. It seemed like the staff was not fully attentive to the guests' needs. A big part of a great dining experience is having the staff anticipate your needs, and here it just didn’t happen. We frequently found ourselves having to wave down servers for refills or assistance, which disrupted the flow of our meal.
As for the atmosphere, it was decent but nothing to rave about. While it offered a pleasant space to enjoy a meal, it didn't contribute significantly to the overall experience. I’ve certainly encountered better dining environments that paired exceptional service with great food.
Having dined at several Korean BBQ places before, I can confidently say there are better options available that not only offer superior service and tastier dishes but often at a more reasonable price point.
My experience at Romantic Baboy can be described as “meh.” There was nothing particularly remarkable about the food or service that would make me want to return. I would recommend seeking out other establishments that truly capture the essence...

Read moreI've tried numerous Romantic baboy branches (Marilao, Ali mall, sm north, Trinoma etc) but this branch is by far the best. Servings are big compared to other branches especially the scallops with cheese. Staff are accommodating and the food is prepared well. It's cheaper compared to other Romantic baboy branches too! Thank you Romantic baboy - Naga team. My partner and our loved ones enjoyed our dinner last Saturday. ❤️
Beef Bulgogi is our favorite and...
