Absolutely loved this new Korean spot on Brick Lane! They’ve got an impressive range of halal options, so there’s something for everyone, which is a huge plus.
Some halal options include: Japchae Rolled Eggs Kimchi Jeon Seafood Jeon Halal Chicken (their Sweet & Spicy and Gochumayo chicken are unreal) Jjimdak Odeng Tang
I personally went for the Odeng Tang (fish cake soup), and it was amazing! The broth was rich and comforting, and when paired with a bowl of steamed rice, it hit all the right spots. My friend and I also ordered the half-and-half of Gochumayo and Sweet & Spicy chicken, which had this perfect crunch and balance of flavours – highly recommend it if you’re a fan of Korean fried chicken. We also tried the Kimchi Jeon (kimchi pancake), which was light yet super filling. Honestly, we were both struggling to finish by the end because the portions were so generous!
To wash it all down, we had the grapefruit honey black tea, which was perfectly balanced with a subtle sweetness – a refreshing end to an already satisfying meal.
On top of the fantastic food, the customer service was just on point. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. I’m already planning to go back and try more! If you’re on Brick Lane, give it a go – you...
Read moreCame here for lunch on a Sunday and had a great experience. Arrived at 13:30 were warmly greeted and seated quickly, asked about allergies and shown how to order.
You place your order using a tablet attached to the table. You get to see pictures of what you're ordering and also helpfully anything they've run out of on the day. Once the order is placed someone comes over to verify what you've ordered (which is reassuring).
The food came out and was excellent. We had Japchae (stir fried glass noodles and veg) with beef, the half portion of crispy Korean fried chicken (which was still a huge pile) with spicy and sour source on the side and Korean Corn cheese (which was amaaaaazing).
All the food was brilliant, service was super friendly with the perfect level of attentiveness. We never felt rushed and the place has a nice vibe.
Also, we ordered a single aloe drink and they gave us two glasses. A small thing, but actually very nice to see.
Definitely going to come back here multiple times. I'd definitely...
Read moreA good vibe new restaurant in Shoreditch. Authentic Korean food and the portions are very generous. Plus Kind and attentive staff.
Tteokbokki is the real deal! The sauce is quite thick, spicy, and sweet, which is the real traditional Korean style. But it's not too spicy, so everyone can enjoy it!
There are a lot of ingredients in the seafood jeon, especially l liked the chilli slices. I was just sad we couldn’t finish it as we were so full.
Kimchi jjim was well cooked, the meat is so tender, and we didn’t expect this much meat for this price! The flavourful broth with kimchi goes well with rice (must have rice with this dish!). And the lovely waitress cut our kimchi to make it easy to eat :)
They also have unique desserts. Caramelised grapefruit is sooooo good. And the vanilla ice cream with sesame oil weirdly works well together, with sugary crunchy nuts. I’ve never had these kinds of desserts before, but I want to...
