Korean J Grill — Restaurant in Quezon City

The store did not open at 3pm as promised and posted on their fb page 🙄😒😏😡😠🤬. We were there to queue at 130 pm because we were a group of 17 pax, and we wanted to make sure we will be seated as the store opens. But we just wasted almost 4 hours for nothing. So we left and went to Zensho instead. Zensho had great food, service, and atmosphere 👌 😋 😍

🤬😠😡😏💥🙄😭 All of their kitchen staff did not show up for work. Only Melody was there, another server, and a dishwasher.

The manager and owner were not there either to rectify the issues. And just advised Melody to open at 7pm, which is another 4 hours wait. They did not even update the fb post to inform potential customers of their late opening.

The place is quite small, dark and smelly. There were no exhaust ducts per table like the usual samgyup resto, which is why the place smells. I think this is a fire hazard coz the oil fumes are stuck all over the place.

There were at least 40 of us who waited, but just left since the restaurant is not ready to...

Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon, not so crowded. We've been patiently waiting outside to get our table. Approached the lady server and we were told to wait outside. After few minutes may family na parating so nagsabi ako ulit dun sa guy na server. Unfortunately, the family who came after us were able to get inside na and dine while we are still outside waiting under the scorching sun. We didn't argue with the family since it wasn't their fault. We asked the lady server what happened and she replied hindi daw nia alam. No apologies or whatnot. Like for real!? We were outside and I think the mother nung family yung nagapproach sa amin to apologise, yes the customer and we said na it's not their fault. Hindi naman kayo nahiya nian sa mga customer nio? We decided to go to SAMGYUPSALAMAT, few steps lang nman from this place. WAG KAYO...

If you're craving authentic Korean samgyeopsal, this place is a must-visit! The pork belly was fresh, juicy, and perfectly marbled — it grilled beautifully and melted in the mouth. Every bite was packed with flavor, especially when wrapped in lettuce with their signature ssamjang sauce and side dishes.

The service was outstanding too — the staff were friendly, attentive, and even helped with grilling to make sure everything was cooked just right. The banchan (side dishes) were fresh and refillable, adding even more variety to the meal.

The atmosphere felt cozy and lively, just like a real Korean barbecue experience. Prices were reasonable given the high quality of the meat and generous portions. I'll definitely be coming back for more samgyeopsal nights!

Highly recommended for anyone who...
