Second visit update. This time, they offer a diverse menu featuring authentic Korean dishes. Notable selections include the Galbi Gui (marinated grilled beef ribs) priced at AED 105, Bibimbap (a rice bowl topped with vegetables, meat, egg, and gochujang) for AED 50, and the Bulgogi Beef Set at AED 58. While the beef dishes are flavorful and well-prepared, some patrons have noted that they are slightly overpriced and portions are a little bit though quality of ingredients often justify the cost.

What Did I try there?

Honey Glazed Chicken (Crunchy Korean-style fried chicken with honey sauce )- this is not to be missed dish when at Hanok

Fries - Very yummy and not really as spice as they look and love the Sweet Thai Chilli Dip they come with.

Kimbap - (Korean rice roll with assorted filling)they were amazing,my kid gobbled them one after the other and I was glad because they are all healthy.

Banchan - Banchan or bansang is a collective name for small side dish/dishes served along with cooked rice in Korean cuisine.We totally love the egg and mushroom rolls and Kimchi.

Japchae -(Stir-fried Sweet Potato Noodles and Vegetables) It was divine.

Bubble teas (Classic and Taro) A refreshing black tea-based drink with milk and caramelized tapioca pearls.

Highly recommend the Taro Hanok Bubble Tea.

They serve their A la Carte menu and serve 100% halal meat and chicken.

Sharing a bad experience I recently gone through with this restaurant - staffs are not gentle and cooperative at all. I drove down to the restaurant as my residence is just around the corner in close proximity. I ordered good amount of food and requested them to deliver it to my home, which is right next to the restaurant, they refused to do so and gave the excuses, that it might take long as restaurant was busy (it wasn’t actually) driver is not available. Their car was just parked outside with the driver. The receptionist said once the food is ready they will call my phone, I waited outside in my car parked far away, as they don’t have a parking facility. I waited for almost 30 mins, nobody calls, when I called them they said it’s ready. (Failed to meet expectations) I requested them to come out near the entrance since my car was parked far away and I will grab it quickly , I took almost 3 rounds around the restaurant, nobody showed up and again I had to pull over my car and enter the restaurant to pickup the food myself. They need to understand that restaurant is located opposite to the roundabout and it causes inconvenience to the customers and they should cooperate, in my case I will give 0 rating for the entire experience from...
