Bulgogi in Woking

We love the food here. Amazing food and staff very friendly and helpful. As is our first time to the restaurant, staff help us to choice afew nice dishes. All the food served are very fresh and it taste so good.

Good food but not child friendly.We were told our children (5 yo) were too noisy (two of them and they were not running around, they just sitting nicely making funny comment playing game on the phone). Staffs were friendly and good, but seemed the manager was the one who made the complaint to our table (I didn’t see other customer made the complaint).I have been to so many restaurants in the UK, especially korean/asian restaurants, but never been like this.To the owner, probably good if you put an indication to your restaurant where “too loud” kids are not welcomed, to save people getting disappointed. Win-win solution.Definitely not coming back

Couldn’t of had a better experience at Bulgogi. We ordered multiple dishes to share between 3 of us, and every single one was extremely tasty and enjoyed by all. The customer service was also exceptionally friendly and helpful. Will definitely be going back.

Amazing food, lovely staff. Totally recomend to go. Rather keep it secret but they deserve the credit. The kimchi pancakes are fantastic. Good wine list and everything is super fresh. Keep up the good work

Had great Korean BBQ. Really nice and fresh seafood pancake. Very pleased with the customer service.

Excellent appetizers, sides and main courses! Attentive service & felt very clean and safe..will be back!

Love this place probably the best restaurant in Woking! Food and service are delicious and efficient.

Fantastic food and excellent, friendly service. Felt very safe. Owner took the temperature of everyone entering the restaurant; menu accessed online through free wifi (October 2020). Comfortable seating and nice atmosphere. We can't wait to go back there and try more dishes.

The food is so good. Fresh, freshly cooked and delicious. The menu caters for all diets making it really easy for groups and the staff are lovely.

Great service despite the current regulations. The Kimchi Pancake was a highlight of the meal and it was all thoroughly enjoyable. It’s definitely worth a visit.

Our family favourites are bibimbap, salmon teriyaki and the gyoza but we recently discovered the 'hairy prawns' and they are amazing! Food is always delicious and the service is warm and welcoming. Would highly recommend!!

Our food was really tasty. The service was great and has a friendly atmosphere. The restaurant looks really nice too and very clean.

Good food, well cooked and prepared. We were a terrible mix of veggie, vegan, diary and gluten free! I can really recommend it they catered for us all with a smile x

I have been here before on a few occasions.This time we have been here was not a good experience at all.Dirty table, noise and arguments coming from the kitchen.Extractor fan must have also been switched off as we have left the premises smelling all greasy.There are other Korean restaurants which fare a lot higher.Won't be missing you Bulgoney.

We went there as a big group on week evening. It was not the busiest time but most of the other customers were from Far East countries which seems a good sign. The service was reasonably quick and courteous. Nice touch to have some of the food grilled at the table. The fried rice was rather hot but nobody complained, the bolgogi meat quite sweet but very pleasant. The mixed vegetable pot, bibimbap, ordered by the person in front of me was also satisfying. We were offered some kimchi but some of us did not like it, it was ok for me. People who had been there before told us the dessert are not convincing so we did not try it, not a lot of choice anyway. The rice wine has an interesting syrupy taste that you might not want to have every day but it is nice for a change. Overall the food is salty even if not necessarily hot, you will want to drink more than usual afterwards.

The food in this restaurant is very tasty, balanced and curated. Not sure whether it’s been Europeanized or not, but it’s incredibly pleasant to eat without being too spicy, hot or unexpected.Only bad point are some waiters, who make gross mistake like rounding the price up instead of down (which is very disappointing not for the pens spent but for the principle of adding money for no service and it’s inelegant) and propose stupid things like “can I charge only one of you, ant then the other six make you transfers?”.In this terms, service is very bad.But food is good.

It's been well over six months since our last visit, unfortunately. We were absolutely delighted to find that the quality of the food and the service is still the same as ever. The food arrived quickly, starters first, and then within ten minutes of us finishing, the mains and side dish. The duckbokki is delicious and as always the seasonal kimchi was great - it's different every time we visit, but always amazing. Our waiter was attentive and great to chat to. James the owner also came to speak with us several times. We always have a great experience here and have been visiting since long before they were in this location! James is a lovely man who always takes the time to chat.Definitely visit early because they get busier later in the evening, and book on a Friday or Saturday. Weekday nights around 6 are generally quiet. The bibimbap and beef bulgogi are both delicious and I can't visit without getting the dumplings, either meat or vegetable - both are so consistently fantastic, no other similar dish from other restaurants has ever come close.감사합니다!!

Not been to Bulgogi for a year as we moved out of Woking area, pleased to say the food is as good now as it was before with a few new dishes too. Sadly the food took quite a long time to arrive probably because the restaurant was fully booked the night we went.With that said it didn’t spoil our evening and we will be back.

A quiet rainy monday evening in Woking was completely transformed by a visit to bulgogi. Every dish was amazing

1x Bibimbap: hervorragend, sehr frisch, köstliche chilli Sauce, einziges Manko weshalb nur 4 sterne: eeeetwas zu kleine Portionen.Wenn man also komplett ausgehungert ist, evtl. Etwas anderes suchen. Ansonsten für alle Liebhaber koreanische Küche sehr zu empfehlen!

Wir sind auf unserer Reise über tripadvisor auf das Bulgogi gestoßen. Vom Gesamtbild her kann ich den vorausgegangenen Bewertung nur zustimmen. Das Essen war sehr lecker und frisch und das Personal sehr freundlich. Bei zwei Getränken und zwei Hauptspeisen sowie einer Vorspeise haben wir 36 Pfund bezahlt, was mir sehr fair vorkam. Deshalb würde ich diesen Laden mit gutem gewissen weiterempfehlen können.

rated excellence on T&A and based on recent visit it is a class of its own. small portions but tasty enough to stay in your Palate. must go back soon to try more dishes definitely best Korean Food in Town

Favorite food joint. Love the corn tea and dumplings veg as well as non veg once. The staff is welcoming. Place is cozy and comfortable.

This is our new favourite restaurant in Woking. Excellent service and excellent food. My personal favourites are “hairy prawns “ ( even my non prawn eating husband loved them) which are to die for, and bibimbap. Thank you.

Extremely POOR service. We waited over an hour for any food or drink. Out order was taken and we sat for almost an hour watching the waiter go back and forth on other tables. He didn't even bother to acknowledge the fact that we were waiting.

I come here a lot and the food quality is always amazing. Staff are super welcoming and friendly and are quick with orders. Never thought I'd like korean food but so glad i tried it and always look forward to my next visit.

We stumbled on this place for lunch. Very nice. Great food, lovely staff & super value for money. We had the lunch special & the dish that gives its name to the restaurant - Bulgogi. We both really liked it.

While the food is always excellent, the service is inconsistent. The last time we were there, the mains were served before the starters and the wait staff were not at all flexible with taking back the mains while we had our starters. The table next to us received some of their food but not all - how does a Korean restaurant run out of rice? Service needs to improve for me to go back.

I've been there for family dinner, we ordered foods and trying to enjoy the family time. When they bring the grill the lady who was serving the grill was grumpy. We had appetizer, then grilled menu was served at the same time our main course was served simultaneously, then I requested them to bring after the grilled menu but they left it there. Then I again requested to serve it later, but instead the male waiter became aggressive unacceptably at the same time the owner too. Hence, I didn't feel comfortable with my family there and I didn't feel to eat any more so I left the remaining food and left that premise. As a customer with a family I don't think this place is appropriate to go. I don't recommend this place to go anymore. Disgusting they don't respect the customer and family value. I could argue with them there, but I didn't due to my children were there. This is the worst place, they were treated as if they were serving free foods.

Not having sampled Korean food before, my two sons were eager and intrigued to try the restaurant on a busy Saturday night and not having booked. We were courteously found and escorted to table, that, to our surprise, has an electric/hot plate in the centre. As you would expect on a Saturday night the restaurant was busy and vibrant, and service understandably slow, but the very pleasant staff made up for this. For starters we ordered Kimchi Pancake, which was okay, but I couldn't see £7.50 worth, and two portions of Fried Meat Dumplings, which were really tasty and a starter that I would recommend.

Okay not many Korean in town around but it has to be said it’s rated excellence Dining Restaurant for a reason & I happen to agree; Great food great service

Came here for a family dinner on a Friday night. Seems that they prioritise takeaway orders over restaurant patrons. Our food arrived all out of sync - main dishes befoe starters. Food ranged from nasty (short rib Bulgogi - just gristly tough bits of beef rib with very little seasoning or sauce) to average (rubbery bits of deep fried calamari to not bad (pork Bulgogi). Rice had unidentified black things in it.

I go here everytime I'm in Woking. Best korean food in town, I've tasted alot of the items on the menu, and they are all good.!

Ambience is a bit lacking here but it’s great for a group work lunch with fast service, hot tasty freshly prepared food that’s delicious & filling. Service is prompt & helpful. Consistent standard of service & food over months. Reasonable value.

Was a good selection of meals. Waiter helped with choosing dishes we liked. Food was excellent, would recommend. I’ll be back.

We had a nice table for 6. We let the waitress help to choose the food, split half in what we could cook on the table and half already prepared. The phasing of the food was well timed. The beef on the table-bbq was absolutely fabulous. You don’t have to cook yourself, but you can choose to be involved. Very reasonably priced. Worth trying.

Fantastic food, fantastic service, great value. The kimchi is amazing and the mushroom starter was the best mushroom dish I've ever had! Second time here and can't wait to come back!

The food was fantastic, service brilliant, however the portions were smaller than we expected so we were not happily full when we left- just happy.

Extraordinary korean food with authentic flavours and a first class service. An amazing dining experience. I would highly recommend the honey and garlic wings!

Pleasant clean restaurant, attentive but not intrusive staff, they helpfully answered questions about menu items and I ate something enjoyably delicious that I'd never had before.

Despite living in Woking for years we’d never visited this restaurant. Pleasantly surprised with both the quality of food and the service. Would certainly recommend.

Our visits to Bulgogi in the past have resulted in disappointment - quality was decent but portions were meagre for its price.

Our first experience with Korean cuisine and we thoroughly enjoyed it. All fresh, light and very tasty. I had sweet potato noodles with vegetables and it was amazing. The staff are friendly and very attentive. Highly recommended!

We’ve visited this restaurant plenty of times over the years and always have a great experience. Fab food, great service and really good value. We’ve been with both friends and family (including children) and everyone loves it.

Really delicious, great value, great service. The fried chicken is sublime, as are the bibimbap dishes. The chef came out to say a brief, casual and sweet hello which was nice. Worth a trip to Woking in itself! Unmissable.

Bulgogi offers fantastic food, good service and friendly atmosphere for great value. The pork and chicken bulgogi have to be my favourites and there is nothing else around that compares for flavour. I can't recommend enough.

Popped in on Saturday as we haven’t visited in awhile and happy to see the standard is still the same. We had the K formal dinner which is a set meal, which is good but was slightly on the small side.

these are becoming my favorite dishes, simpe, tasty, can be spicy depending upon how much sauce you add.

My mum loves the BiBimBap here, but my favourite has to be the Salmon Teriyaki. Great service, great food!

Went as a family of five on a Tuesday evening. Three of us chose the beef rib K-Formal dinner (set meal). This came as three different starters to share (chosen by chef on the day) followed by plate of marinated beef rib (off the bone), rice bowl and selection of side dishes. All of which were delicious! My only preference would be to have the side dishes hot rather than cold. But if you choose to eat Korean I guess you must expect to eat as Koreans do :) Others chose the bulgogi beef and loved this too!

Just got back from a delicious meal at Bulgogi. This was my first Korean experience and I was very pleasantly surprised. I was impressed walking in on a Monday evening and seeing the restaurant busy with diners.

It's amazing! If some guy want to experience Korean food, this is absolutely best! Our family had had food in there yesterday . My whole family so happy. Thanks CEO & steff.

Second time coming here to eat, worth every penny. Owners of the restaurant very welcoming. Good service from the staff and food superb as always.

I was there today lunch time with our colleagues.

We were a small group coming here for dinner and were positively surprised. This gives a good taste of Korea, in quality, friendliness and ambiance. The grilling at the table was excellent and went well with Korean beer. We'll be back.

This was our first visit to Bulgogi and after reading the reviews we were looking forward to it. Unfortunately we were somewhat underwhelmed. Firstly the service was OK & the staff were friendly. Unfortunately the food wasn't inspiring, we thought all our meals were bland and lacked flavor. The dumpling starters were greasy & tasteless. We had Bulgogi (beef) which was tough and lacked any flavour, Panbroiled chicken noodle which was OK but nothing special & Bibimbap which was probably the best thing we ordered and would be my choice if I went back.

Per pranzo abbiamo preso Take away in questo ristorante coreano. Abbiamo preso il piatto Beef Bulgogi ed è stato molto buono e anche economico. Lo consiglio!

I've eaten here a few times and enjoyed it. The service and food are both good - no idea if it's authentic or not as I've never eaten at another Korean restaurant! It would be 5 stars if the portions were bigger. With 3 courses...

I booked in advance for 2 people at 6pm on Good Friday. When we arrived it was quiet, but by 6:30 there was a steady stream of customers, so I advise that you book and if you want a quiet meal, go as early as...

I’ve been going to this restaurant for many years now. They used to be a tiny place in an industrial area in Woking. Friendly, family-oriented, welcoming. Personalised service. Awesome food. Sadly, all that’s in the past now. Since they moved into the town centre, their...

I visited with my family. We enjoyed Pageon, Soft Tobu stew with seafoods, Chiken Bulgogi and Pork Bulgogi. We were very happy to eat delicious Korean foods. The manager was very kind and all staffs are friendly. Very good price! I strongly recommend this restaurant.

We arrived before the restaurant opened but were still invited in by the owner to take a seat to get out of the cold. The staff are really friendly and attentive and the food is lovely and all freshly prepared. It is a nice experience...

like it or not Asian cuisine you should give this place a change. Deffenetely one of Wokings best ethics restaurant with a medium eenvironment but with nice service in normal prices

We went to bulgogi for something different We ordered two double portions of the specials for four people It included...

Food was well executed and authentically tasty. Drawback is when the bill arrives, to find they add 10% service, which is to be expected; but they then add another 20% VAT on top of the total, including the service charge. Making an additional charge of 32% on top of the bill. To have the VAT exclusive rather than inclusive of the prices on a menu is not standard restaurant practice and not highlighted on the menu - no doubt it's hidden somewhere. Happy to leave a tip and service charge, but 32% on top of what would have been a mid range bill, seems to be skirting legality.

We visited Bulgogi almost two years ago. This time round, rather than having Korean in New Malden, we thought to...

You simply have to try. Everybody at our table enjoyed the food immensely. Great service, great traditional Korean food

We came here after a number of my Korean colleagues said the food was great and we weren’t disappointed.

This was our second visit. We decided to go for the grill at the table .We had the pork belly( cut very thin) and the sirloin steak. Steak was a good size. The friendly staff help you with the cooking. Turning the good and also cutting the steak. They are also happy to recommend dishes if you are unfamiliar with Korean food. Eating from the grill is great with a group. Very sociable eating.

We always enjoy menu or lunch menu.

I went to Bulgogi for several times. I super surprised when I had the first bite of seafood pancake! Soooooo good! I highly recommend the king prawn and chicken Gangjung. My child loves them a lot. The kimchi there is authentic or even better than I had in Korea. The sauce of hairy fried shrimps is special that u can’t figure out what’s in it but I like it. Believe or not, beef bulgogi /bibimbap are best choices for non-Asians. And my friend likes pork belly and rib eye grilled on the table Which is quite eye-opening tho. One more! Don’t forget to have Mochi (iced chapssalduck ?) for the dessert

So this was our first time going, a party of 5 people. The food does tend to come out at different times, but that is part of the charm. Everything was very fresh. In particular the beef curry was very tasty and a large portion. The prawn fried rice was very fresh. We need some practice on what to choose off the menu, and the place was full of Korean's eating so that is always a good sign. The service was very good. We will go back and send a little more time working out what to pick, or even ask!

Spontaneous visit. We love real Thai (almost impossible to find in the UK) and most other middle and far eastern cuisine. Never had Korean. We loved it. The service was friendly and informative and the food superb. Having the main cooked at the table just added to the experience. My recommendation, just visit, you won't regret it.

This is my first taste of Korean food and really liked it so cannot compare to the authenticity. However loved what I ate. The food tends to come as it is ready so when eating in a group, people may get starters before others especially if you order the crispy prawns (which are divine). Works well if you are sharing starters though.

I can't think of any other restaurant in Woking that is so consistent in delivering great food. Although the service can sometimes be slow (they have worked on improving on this), the food (in particular, the pork bulgogi) is exquisite. Not to mention it's dirt cheap!

A really enjoyable meal, hairy prawns and jellied eels were quite memorable but every dish tasted good, with no unpleasant aftertastes or feeling bloated or fatty. My only recommendation is not to order multiple bottles of soju.. the chef came out and we thanked him for preparing a fine meal and he was quite appreciative and gracious

Every thing we had was tasty. Very authentic dishes. Also first time I had a Korean drink called soju. Nice but easy to over do. Excellent service and reasonable wine. Will definitely go again.

Service was very attentive and friendly. However, the food really let the experience down. The LA galbi meat quality was terribly poor - totally rubbery and tasted unusual and odd (we eat this dish quite regularly). The Korean cold noodle is one of the least authentic tasting cold noodle dish I've ever had in England. Chapchae was ok and the chilli octopus was well made (thank goodness..). Avoid if you fancied a real Korean dining experience.

We stumbled across this place when searching for somewhere to eat that wasn't too busy. Bulgogi is a little off the beaten path and not near the other restaurants in Woking. The staff are a credit to this place, really friendly and helpful. We had a few starters and each had a main, the food was served promptly and tasted as good as it looked. I had the chicken bulgogi, the fried king prawns and kimchi fried rice. Definitely one worth visiting.

Well, not just Koreans, but it's always a good sign when you see people who know and appreciate an ethnic cuisine, and not just the uninitiated. Anyway, very good meal, with Korean beer to boot. I especially enjoyed my starter, pajeon, or pancake/tortilla with prawns and green onion stuffing. Then I had a pan-broiled noodle dish, also with prawns. Friendly service, clean restrooms. Oh yes: they open as early as 5:30 pm, a big help if you're already famished.

Absolutely amazing food. Beef Bulgogi was beautiful, everything tasted so fresh. Can't wait to go back.

Went for a quiet dinner as a couple. Very relaxing and unpretentious. The food is lovely and the staff is very courteous and helpful. Skipped everything on the menu and went for the formal dinners. The Beef Bulgogi and the Marinated ribs were outstanding. Some of the starters were very good. There was one starter that was not upto the mark - a beef/lettuce salad which had too much sauce (but that is being picky). The sides were very good We washed all of if Makgeolli - Korean rice wine which added to the experience. Top place in Woking to go. Got us some change from £60 and well worth it.

My wife and I wanted a different dining experience and we certainly got this here. We had Japchae to start followed by Bulgogi and the marinated Beef ribs. It was all delicious and we got complimentary melon for dessert. The service was very good and the price was very reasonable. Highly recommend.

I visit this restaurant regularly and always find it excellent. This time I was there for a birthday meal and nothing has changed (apart from the wait staff, who seem to be different every time). We ate dumplings, kimchi jeon, tofu bibimbap and kimchi stew, and were given fried prawns complimentary. We were also served complimentary makgeolli - a Korean rice wine that I have never tried before, so it was really appreciated to have the chance! At the end of the meal we were preparing to pay and were served a third complimentary dish of ice cream-filled mochi.They were extremely generous and made my partner's birthday very special. The price was more than reasonable - £45 for two, including Korean beer.Best restaurant in Woking.

ㅣvisited Bulgogi on 10th of May and ordered 3 dishes (Shrimp, Mushroom, and Soybean paste soup). To my understanding, the chef does not use chemical ingrediants. They were so dilicious. The owner was so kind and helpful. In near future, ㅣwill visit Bulgogi again and taste diffetent dishes.

We enjoyed fantastic food and great service. Can't wait top go back. Family friendly angst very reasonable.

We visited Bulgogi on a rather spontaneous date night and because we couldn't get a reservation at our local Turkish restaurant.We decided to try something new and neither of us had eaten Korean before...I am so grateful the Turkish place couldn't fit us in or else we'd have missed visiting this little gem! The food was incredible, as was the service (we even got cheery goodbyes from the kitchen staff when we left!) And the cost for what we had was superb! We shall definitely be back!!!!

First time at this restaurant and we were not disappointed! Friendly staff. Amazing food! We had beef and pork bulgogi (barbecued marinated meat) and enjoyed every mouthful.

Really impressed by the amazing taste of every dish offered. The home-made kimchi is spot on, and as a Korean wife/mother who’s been cooking Korean dishes for 30 plus years, I can tell no shortcuts have been taken in all the ingredients etc. No MSG whatsoever. The “son-mat” (a Korean term for the “plus alpha” taste that comes over and above on top of the ingredients alone) topnotch. You should really try the soft tofu stew with seafood; I have not tasted a better-tasting version even in Korea! Also, the Korean-themed interior design also stands out. (photo)Also noticed (on the left as you enter the restaurant, see photo) a thank-you letter from the British Korean Veterans Association; seems like they were recommended this place to have a luncheon recently. I can see why!Overall, Really surprised to find a place in Woking that serves genuine, wholesome, and delicious Korean food!

I went to this restaurant with my friends. We ordered the Japchae, fried baby squid and rings, beef bulgogi, kimchi soup, chichen gangjung and other dishes. The taste is very good. I like kimchi soup because I like spicy foods. The boss also very nice. After the meal, they gave us free ice cream.It is an unforgetable the restaurant and I will go to this restaurant again.

Our lunch consisted of many different courses, all interesting and delicious. The staff provided a very friendly and attentive service, including explanation of how the more unusual dishes were made.This was our second visit, having previously enjoyed a light lunch here. Both visits confirmed the pleasure of being in the company of Koreans, who appreciate the same values as the British - and share our sense of humour.

I have a meal whenever I miss my hometown dishes. I can feel warm-hearted this restaurant. The taste of dishes is not artificial by MSG, but so tasty. I've never been disapointed by the dishes and the service so far. Especially, the chilly sauce of this restaurant seems to have something special. So, if you like spicy taste, I'd like to recommend you to try chicken or pork bulgogi(signature menu), bibimbap, and kimch fried rice. Also, japchae is so nice.

This was a perfect location for a special meal when a party of over 30 persons enjoyed the bumper meal which lasted about 2 hours. The food was well presented and we could not fault the service. The fantastic food was greatly enjoyed by all who attended. The beef was par excellence.I don't think that anything more can be added to this accolade!

老闆好可愛boss is really cute. 員工都很親切~staffs are kind.食物也好吃food is great.中午還有送免費的餃子 you can have free dumplings at lunch.

Went on a Tuesday evening with friends. We had dukkboki, kimchi pancake, rib eye and prawn fried rice. The food is absolutely amazing. Gonna try the lunch special menu next time!

The food here will just blow your taste buds away and you may be the only non-asian people eating here. The staff are really friendly and efficient as they can be but it gets really busy and so service can be slow to the point of being annoying. On our last visit we were there for over 45 minutes before we got any food. But it is still worth waiting for!

We went for lunch with my friends and her 8-month old twins on Friday 17, March. The food was OK but the owner's service is disrespectful. Toward the end of our meal, he came out from the kitchen (he was apparently wearing his dirty kitchen apron) and SHOUTEd at us "could you control your babies?"!!!!! What on earth he had in his mind treating his customers like nothing. Babies are supposed to be sleeping, eating, smiling and also crying! My friend's babies were just babies with few screams here and there.Apparently, the owner has no heart or sympathy for smaller persons. He was all red when he came out of the kitchen and hence he could not even perform a proper communication (a disaster in the making). I told him babies are babies and we are doing our best to take care of them. He could not say anything else and off he disappeared. We were left confused and upset especially my friend who wanted to take her twins out of the restaurant asap. It was a trauma for the mom.In contrast, the young waiter was saying sorry to us for such unpleasant and unexpected experience.If the owner did not welcome children or babies, he could have talked me when I called for booking a table. It was the most terrible and unpleasant experience for me and my friends. I would not suggest this restaurant to anyone at all! If you like Korean food, go to Soya in Woking.
