Beautiful restaurant in a very nice part of Kings cross opposite the Google offices. We eat halal so they have us a halal menu but it’s basically a list that u have to cross reference with the main menu. Would be nicer if they just had labels on the main menu or had a smaller halal menu with pictures etc. like the main menu (rather than cross referencing). Atmosphere was great! We went on a Tuesday night and it was busy! I’ve been here twice. First time I enjoyed more than second tbh the halal choices are quite limited. It’s basically the fried chicken options only. Whcih meant that a lot of our food was just fried chicken cooked in different ways. Bao fried chicken. Fried chicken with sweet and chilli sauce. Fried chicken katsu on udon noodles. Fried prawn etc. I guess it’s cause the supplier just happens to be halal for the fried chicken? That’s my guess. Would be nicer if they broadened this out tbh to include other things. That’s the only reason for 4 stars.

Food was tasty, we had grilled beef (very good), bun with katsu chicken, again spot on. The only disappointment was chicken bowl with raw egg rather than raw yolk. The atmosphere was busting, like you would expect in Asian place. Design is modern, and friendly at same time. The minus is that it's too many tables and get overcrowded. It's good for quick bites, I would not recommend it it for chilled out evening.

Not an authentic Korean restaurant but the food is good and if you’re craving it and you’re in that area it hits the spot

Absolutely the worst restaurant management ever!!!! We waited for two whole hours, only to be served cabbage with baby bugs inside(twice!!!!) The service was unbelievably terrible shitttt. A complete waste of time and money—never coming back! So sad that we been coming here for years, and now it’s really disappointing.

The restaurant is very easy to get to with wonderful interior. Just like the Asian standard of modern restaurant. Food was amazing. Stuff there were friendly and I will definitely go there again.

I invited few friends excited because Food used to be very good couple of years ago but we realised it lost flavours and authenticity over time , food came in less then 10 min , bbq items were cold already when it arrived Been told bbq items cannot be done in the table because we did not pre book but we tried to call the restaurant many times no one ever picked up our calls the waiter insisted is our fault because we could have booked online i guess someone could have told us just asnwering the call downhill also in terms of service we paid service charge but did not receive , well i felt embarrassed bringing friends in this place and i won't go back

The fried foods were nice. The short rib beef stew/broth was not great in my opinion.

Beautiful restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. I ordered the katsu chicken udon which was amazing but the seafood udon disappointed slightly with the quality of the seafood. My table was served by Nur who guided us through the menu and provided excellent customer service. We were immediately served with a menu for all the halal options without having to ask

Nur is helpful

They serve a great vegan bibimbap, and other tasty vegan options.

Overall the aesthetic of the restaurant reflected an Asian experience, which I appreciated. The service was generally good; the staff took the time to explain the dishes and even repeated details to ensure accuracy, which was helpful. However, I’d recommend visiting during off-peak hours if you want a more attentive experience. During our visit, our server seemed overwhelmed, leading to delays—waiting 10-15 minutes just to receive the dessert menu or the bill was a bit frustrating. Speaking of desserts, we encountered an issue - finding a spider on the dessert. We mentioned it to another server (as ours wasn’t available), and while they did take it to the chef and replaced it, there was no apology from the kitchen or management, which was disappointing. Given the great service from our main server, I expected the same level of attentiveness in handling the situation.

Hik was great to us on my girlfriends birthday. Food was amazing and Hik's recommendations went down very well.

I tried dwen-jang-jji-gae and bo-ssam. They were authentic but not plain. The waiting line is always long, tho.

Atmosphere was good, I do like their interior decor, but seating was indeed quite cramped. The food was flavourless and overall lacklustre compared to other korean restaurants in London. I agree with other reviews that the service was slightly disorganised, it took ages to get the attention of someone. The location is extremely convenient so I gave the food another chance and came back a second time but the flavour was still quite average. The presentation of the food was decent though.

food was great and the meal came quickly too! though I had to share a table with a stranger and I wasn’t aware this is the system of the restaurant. A heads up would be great :)
