New K-BBQ restaurant in town. This place is located near ICM and inside JLU building (Centre Block). I’m giving this restaurant 3 stars because...
They’re not consistent with their opening times. We went here in advance, around 10:45, and told the staff we wanted to book for 5-6 people. And she said they were opening at 11:00. So we said that we were coming back at 11:00. Come 11:00 and they were not open yet; the lady who listed us prior said they were not yet opening, so they moved their opening time to 11:30 🫠 that day. They didn’t open at 11:00 because they said there was a delivery of products that had just arrived. (I do understand this, but we were shocked by the inconsistency of their opening times) lots of people were already waiting to be seated inside. Aside from that, there were many flies outside the resto (and inside).
The lady who entertained us when we booked a table was not smiling. She was showing a face like she didn’t want to be there. Customers like it when the staff smile at them. She seemed to be rude as well, giving us a side-eye.
The place is too small for a restaurant where many workers and students want to dine.
Although some things were not favourable for me, the food was good! Especially the “kimchi look a like beef with sesame seeds) the other staff were friendly and attentive; they were smiling as well.
Great selection of meat from “premium”. Also, the table is already set before you even sit. You must choose which ones you’d like to try (there is no left-over policy for their meat).
Overall, I believe they can still improve with some of their staff (to smile) and also with the flies.
I’ve been here twice, and the second time I went here, a different lady accommodated us and was friendly and smiling. (flies were still visible) .
The food was still great! 👍🏻 and unlimited. Premium and “I forgot the other one” prices differ from 400+ pesos, and for premium were 529 pesos if I’m not mistaken. We ordered the premium and it was worth it.
A must-try if you love...
Read moreA first timer review here...
A little explanation first: Honestly, we have our favorite samgyupsal place. For a change we look for a new place and specifically the one who serves cheese 😁. Did our research and found this on facebook. Dig deep in research about what they offer, time and mode of payment. Found out the peak hours and seating capacities which they honestly post on their facebook page
Review: I love that they don't have time limit. Coz who wants to eat with limitations, right?! I go out once (introvert) 😁 As a group of 10, we came early to get the suited seat for us. As I get inside, I was accomodated by a very happy staff in the name of "Jimbo Luza" The service is fast. Just in time we sit, Jimbo placed all the pieces in our table. He also offered to take our group picture. He also looks after our table, came to us before we even call him. We call other staff also and they are so kind. We choose premium! The food is great! The meat is the best. I like beef the most! I forgot how many times did we ask for a refill 😅🤣. I also loved the beef marinated with sesame seeds. I just forgot the name! Side dishes are delish. I ate every piece of it.
This one is for improvement: The other review is true. There is a FLY who came uninvited in our table. Hope they have card payment as option coz sometimes we don't carry cash with us. But, good thing there's an ATM machine outside. Hoping also that they have ala carte choices for kids. Coz little kids can't eat a lot of these unlimited. Good thing my daughter loves beef.
Overall, we enjoyed our first try in this place! It was my son's birthday. So, that makes it memorable! The way Jimbo and other staff took care of us adds bliss in...
Read moreToday 6th January 2025 we ate at this restaurant at 3pm. The service was HORRIBLE.
When we entered we wanted to sit in the back to be away from the sun coming in the windows and away from a screaming child seated in the front of the room. The staff told us we weren't allowed to sit in the back so we had to sit next to the very hot windows or the screaming child. We chose to sit near the hot windows.
After initially bringing out our food the staff never once returned to our table to ask if we needed anything. We were required to get their attention each time we needed assistance. Each time they did seem as if they were intentionally avoiding assisting us. More than once we literally had to stand up and insist they assist us.
Each time they brought our food it took an unnecessarily long time. Multiple times we never received the food we requested and had to ask a second employee to help us. When we did receive our food part of our order was always missing.
In the end we ordered additional food but after waiting a long time and never receiving it we eventually just chose to give up the fight. We just paid and left unsatiated.
It's not "all you can eat." It is "all they will allow you to have."
We were a party of four people. I don't feel we received the meal for which we paid. Two of us ate mostly rice because that was the only thing of which there was plenty.
I am aware this may have been a one time problem but this place is too expensive to allow such bad service. We will never...
