Hankookjib — Restaurant in Seoul

Beware so you do not get scammed by this place! They do not inform you that the prices on the menu for the sets are per person.

My mother, who is fluent in Korean, specifically asked if the pricing was for all 4 of us, and they confirmed yes. However, it was actually per person. So instead of it being $75, they tried to charge us $300.

This blatant attempt to overcharge left us feeling cheated and taken advantage of. It's unacceptable for a restaurant to mislead customers in such a manner.

Luckily, we saw the receipt shortly after ordering and asked for a correction. However, not only did Korea House try to overcharge us, but their customer service was also appalling.

The Tteok-galbi, on the other hand, was just okay—tender, but a bit underwhelming in flavor compared to the fish.

Still, it was a satisfying meal overall, and the value was great at about $25 per person. We’ll definitely be back—especially for...

Not stroller friendly. Cashier/ staff don’t even know how Apple Pay, as if they never deal with Apple Pay before. Kept telling me to put my card there when they never even process the POS to scan. When I put my phone there and nothing happened, then the cashier realised she haven’t pressed any button then she pressed the button.

Kept telling me to leave my phone there but I need to scan my face or passcode before the transaction can be approved. Cashier can’t seem to understand that for some reason, like it’s the first time the restaurant dealt...
