My Husband and I, went to Gaya for our first year anniversary ! My Husband loved it, It is homely and humble. The food is very delicious the chillie pork very nice, had the dumpling soup, with seaweed and the flavour of the soup was rich and the dumplings so soft. The side dishes and the fried dumplings were also very nice.It was so filling very generous portion. The staff is friendly and kindly spoken. I could have eaten the whole menu. If you feel cold winter air blowing in your face, the hot Sake at Gaya will heat you up in no time! We will definitely return.

My friend had been wanting to try this place for a long time, and we finally got round to going for lunch last week. Some dishes are pricey, but the lunch menu was very affordable. We ordered seafood bokkeum-udong and cheolpan with pork & vegetables for mains, plus kkanpunggi and pork gun-mandu to share. Everything, and I mean E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G (except the plain rice), was SOOOOO tasty, especially the kkanpunggi which was covered in delicious honey, garlic and chilli. I even ate the mushrooms in my cheolpan, and I usually hate mushrooms! We were also served a selection of pickled vegetables & steamed dumplings while our food cooked, and the attentive staff were quick to clear empty plates throughout our meal so that our small table wasn't unnecessarily cluttered. We left after an hour with our bellies full (and a takeaway box for my friend's leftovers), ready for an afternoon nap. Needless to say, we'll be back again asap!

They have lunch set menu offering between £12-13. Portion of each dish is on average, typical Korean cuisine flavour, however I would prefer choosing Korean restaurants in New Malden instead.

We walked in on lunch time in weekday, they have decent lunch specials. Food was great! We ordered a bit more than enough. We got 3 Banchans for 2 ppl. The fried chicken was crispy and juicy! Had Hoi-naengmyeon, I think it's called dry spicy buckwheat noodles, I love it, but my partner thinks is a bit sweet. Bibimbab was standard. Stir fry squid was tender!!! Will go back next time!

The restaurant wasn't busy when I visited. The owners were nice and served me quickly, I ordered the spicy sundaeguk but flavour wise it's not authentic gukbap. I'd give it 6/10 for nostalgia but lacks in flavour 🥺 Price was reasonable for London.

My second time dining here and I am happy to say that I will be back yet again . Very friendly, and attentive staff The best dishes to opp for judging by a party of 10 Koreans celebrating an occasion is to go for fish and deep pot dishes sizzling as its brought to the table, To then shair I had to agree, A private side room is available if required Prices range from moderate to expensive but was very happy to pay for what was lovely food

Reyes Park is located between Wimbledon Station and New Malden Station. It's a place I pass by unless visiting a Korean community center or a restaurant. If you want to eat any Korean food, I definitely recommend it. As I was visiting sporadically even before COVID-19, I tried a variety of foods, but I didn't take many pictures because I focused on tasting things like tripe hotpot, cold noodles, pork belly, etc. every time I visited. Today too, there is only one photo. If you're hungry for Korean food, Gaya is a great place to visit for a birthday party or with your loved ones. P.S Jajangmyeon, jjamppong, and udon are also delicious. 🤤 🤤

We live locally to Gaya & love it so much we have been visiting every fortnight for over 6 months! The staff are so great, very welcoming, friendly and helpful. It's very cozy with a laid back atmosphere, even when busy. We have tried the BBQ with family before which is amazing, but as my partner is vegetarian we usually share some delicious veggie dishes and it all tastes absolutely amazing. Even the complimentary side dishes (반찬 banchan) are so tasty. Highly recommend the Korean pancakes (해물파전, haemul pajeon and 깻잎 부추전, kenip buchujeon), tofu with vegetables (야채잡탕 yache jabtang) with egg fried rice (계란밥 gyeran bab) and of course the classic Bibimbap (돌솥비빔밥, dolsot bibimbab). The Egg fried rice is the best rice I've EVER eaten. They also do Bring your own Wine for £7 corkage. We look forward to trying other tasty looking dishes on the menu on future visits, and bringing other friends & family. Highly recommended!

Food was not great - the sweet and sour sauce was tasting like pure honey - the squid was raw. The traditional drink I had a warm sort of wine was not tasty at all - very disappointing not to get even a sorry for not being satisfied from the staff - or a reduction as I didn’t drink the drink at all. The pork dish I had to tell them to pack it for me in a take away box but without the sauce. I would certainly not got back again.

Tiny Korean restaurant that packs a punch. Having tried the majority of New Malden offering, this is one of best out there for traditional dishes. The seafood pancake was our highlight (flavour, thickness and texture to perfection). We saw many tables ordering the tempura prawn, possibly good, but batter lacked colour. The Kim Chi stew was sharp and tasty. Service a little lacking, with some staff refusing to make eye contact for fear of having to address you. Conveniently lots of parking available on the residential road outside.

I like to come here during the winter months when it gets dark early and maybe raining. This restaurant is tucked away in a nice quiet road and the warm light from inside invites you to come in from the cold to eat kimchi jjigae (김치찌개). If you are lucky, they might be playing Korean music. I could sit in here all evening listening to Taeyeon singing, whilst I eat kimchi jjigae.

Stopped by here after an exhausting day when I was in quite a sour mood and came out smiling and relaxed, asking my husband if he wanted to move to the neighbourhood. Prompt service and excellent food with a taste of home; perfect portions, nothing overseasoned or overcooked, and dishes advertised as spicy are ACTUALLY spicy, which made my Indian heart sing. I kept wiggling in my seat from how happy I was. Lovely multigrain rice accompanied my stir-fried squid, and the yukgaejang (tender shredded beef and vegetable soup) had a really pleasant kick and an aroma of fresh veggies. The free banchan provided added the right sweet and sour elements, and my ginseng tea came in a beautiful porcelain cup that stayed warm for the full hour we ate. Despite the quick service and late hour, we weren't ushered out. A truly comforting experience. I don't live anywhere near London, but I will return just to eat here.

Gaya is truly outstanding. Every dish I've ordered (and I've been back several times now) has been fresh, tasty, and made with obvious care. If you're familiar with Korean food, every dish is beautifully authentic. If you're not, this is a great place to try it for the first time. It's a small restaurant, so it's cozy and intimate enough for a date, but also excellent for a group of friends who want to do Korean Barbecue. There's also a nice selection of drinks. I highly recommend it!

Gaya is a popular Korean restaurant. The menu is incredibly extensive. So far, I have tried their bibimbap, various BBQ meats, and pajeon to takeaway. All have been delicious. I hope to eat in one day as it looks great inside too with some tables having a BBQ. An added bonus is that they have parking space outside.

Everything was well prepared, the side dishes, the appetisers and the bbq itself were all full of flavour and authentically made. The waitress was happy to explain the different options and give some recommendations as well as suggest extras to complete the experience. The adlay tea and citron honey tea were nice options to have and round out a great Korean lunch. Come hungry, as the portions are generous but delicious.
