This is a great place in near Notting Hill Gate tube stop and close by Kensington Palace. Very friendly and helpful servers so don't be shy if you don't know a lot about Korean or Japanese food. Delicious tofu bibimbap and great Korean fried chicken. The veg dumplings were top notch.

The best experience eating out that I have had in a long time! The food - variety, quality, taste, presentation - was fantastic. I chose tempura prawns to start, and a bibimbap bowl for my main and I'm still thinking about them three days later! Wonderful food. 10/10. The service was spot on - friendly, efficient, minimal. Value for money is phenomenal. Really easy to access from Notting Hill Gate underground.

Every time I visit this place I leave with a good smile. Service is so kind and welcoming, food delicious. One of the best kimchi, had to mention that again. Thank you

Decent sushi, but absolutely inedible chicken yakitori the latter being drowned in a pool of gloopy, muddy and unbearably salty sauce. I have a high salt tolerance, so to find this too salty was shocking. No evidence of a char on the chicken, maybe because it was wet and soggy due to all the sauce. I didn’t eat it after the first bite but the waiter didn’t even ask if I was happy with the food and expressed no interest when I said it was not good. No joke the worst yakitori I’ve ever had, anywhere.

This has always been a pleasant, friendly neighborhood restaurant, and it still is. But it's not exactly a Korean restaurant any more. The menu has added many Japanese foods, and their heart doesn't seem to be in Korea any more. There wasn't even any kimchee on the table, and what is Korean food without kimchee? The waitress, who may not have been Korean, didn't even know what banchan are, and no banchan were offered--when for me, they are the delight of a Korean dinner. So you can come here for a pleasant pan-Asian meal, but if you want a real Korean dinner, you'll have to go somewhere else.

This is our favorite neighborhood restaurant, everything is delicious and excellent value for money. The fried chicken is the best and the sushis are very qualitative.

This is a hidden gem! Was highly recommended to my sister by a couple of friends and certainly did not dissapoint. We were a family of 3 with a 2.5 years old. Once you try their fried chicken you won't want any other fried chicken. We had the amazing Pork Bulgogi (Pork Belly) Also the special Bibimbap with Beef and finally the curry with sticky rice. I must also say the Korean Lager Cass is amazing I had never tried it. We were in London for less than a week and we went 2 times to visit. Certaintly must try!

Incredibly disappointed. When I came in I was lead to a very small table (clearly for 2) in the corner where I asked if it the right table as we were a party of three. Waitress mentioned it was the right table. I was very confused as I could see other tables free. When the rest of the party arrived and it was clear that there was no way to fit three people comfortably at this table, the wait staff was not willing to acknowledge the lack of space. However, as mentioned there was another table that could have easily sat three-four people right next to it and when this was addressed, the wait staff became argumentative in allowing my party to change tables when they themselves mentioned that the other table was not even reserved until much later in the evening. In the end, we left. A bad experience all around.

They tried to seat my party of three at a tiny table for two, and did not even provide an extra chair for a third person. The staff were completely unapologetic, even though we had made a reservation and rightfully expected to be seated accordingly, so we walked out. Ridiculous table management, poor staff attitudes, lousy restaurant experience.

I went to dine at Bibida last night with my husband and our friend; We had made a 7pm dinner reservation for 3 adults beforehand, and arrived separately but all on time. The server who showed us upstairs tried to seat us at a small table for two. Apart from the size of the table being an issue, the restaurant had not even provided an additional chair for a third person to sit on. Their expectation was for two grown adults to share one side of the table, with one person crammed in a corner on the bench. We told them that table was not suited for a party of three, and asked to be moved to a vacant table on the same floor that was much larger but had also been set up for three people. The staff said this would not be possible, unless we were willing to order, eat and leave within the hour, as they were expecting that party of three at 8pm. When asked why we were expected to dine at a table half the size and without adequate seating, we were told that the other group had been prioritised as they had made their reservation earlier. The staff even admitted that we had only been assigned our table as a last resort, as it was a busy night and they could not have accommodated our party of three otherwise. Still, they did not have the decency, awareness or consideration to apologise. We ended up leaving right away and scrambling to find an alternative in Notting Hill at the last minute on a Saturday night. The restaurant should not have accepted our reservation if they did not have a reasonable amount of space to accommodate us. We did not get any calls, emails or other notifications informing us that they would be squeezing us onto a table meant for two, let alone asking if that would be okay. The fact that the staff was so obnoxious and unapologetic just made everything worse.

One of the best Japanese restaurants I’ve been to in London. It’s never easy to successfully add a twist to such an established cuisine, but these guys have figured out a way to do it for every dish. Will definitely be back.
