BANJOO 반주 — Restaurant in Austin

The food was nothing special, honestly just tastes like takeout. Not bad if you have horrendous taste. Most of these reviews seem to be bots or just friends of the owners.

The service was alright, they got a bit confused sometimes but i’m assuming that’s just because everything was still new.

Nobody here tells you about the borderline scammy payment system they have if you come in with a “large” group of people (aka 6). You can’t pay individually, as they can only split ONE check three ways. Never experienced a restaurant with this type of payment, not sure why they decided to overcomplicate.

There is potential and I was looking forward to eating here, but unfortunately my group and I were left disappointed. Music...

Great place to eat!! The rice cakes were hands down the best I’ve ever had, perfectly chewy and so flavorful. The fried chicken was amazing too, with the perfect mix of spicy and sweet in the sauce. I definitely recommend getting the deep fried glass noodles, they go so well with the spicy rice cakes. The corn had a really good creamy and cheesy taste, it was my first time trying it and it did not disappoint. They also gave us this mushroom with salt (I love mushrooms so I might be biased) but the texture and flavor were amazing. The atmosphere is also really nice to drink and vibe, perfect spot to hang out with friends. Definitely coming back here...

Everything you'd want from a good korean pub! Service was great, vibes were super fun, and the food was fantastic. The music was super loud, but honestly it felt right for the vibe of the place. For food, we got the military soup, which was perfect for 3 people, and was super flavorful and comforting. We also got the sweet and spicy fried chicken, which again was super tasty and flavorful, and not too spicy.

We went for the soft opening, so they had ran out of some items by the time we came, which makes sense. Also haven't tried the karaoke yet, but we'll definitely be...
