Meat was nice and fresh, but it is overpriced. £33 per adult, the grill wasn’t big enough for multiple people to use it at once. I had a prawn that tasted really funny (like soap almost). Not a wide selection of sauces/seasonings, the fried rice ran out and didn’t get replaced. Staff were really lovely but it just wasn’t worth the price unfortunately.

I should have paid attention to the critical tripadvisor reviews. This place was bad. Really bad. The buffet selection was lacklustre and bland, the raw meats were, for the most part, terrible quality. The 'steak' was as tough as leather. The chicken was poor quality and saved only by the marinades - took an age to cook too. The pork was very forgettable. The only meat I didn't hate were the prawns. They insist on you keeping a sheet of paper on the grill and cooking on that, which I firmly believe makes it worse. You don't have to do this at Bulgogi Grill and the meat cooked much better there. Service was extremely basic. We were seated and they only came to take plates, never once asking how things were. We were so extremely disappointed with the quality of the food that we didn't stay long. £33pp is a ripoff for what you get. Go to Bulgogi instead, it's much, much nicer.

We came here for a family meal. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the food was good and we enjoyed the experience. My 6 year old Son especially enjoyed himself as he got to cook his own food and enjoyed being able to try lots of different things he had not tried before.

I booked a table for 5 at Hama, Leeds as a celebration of my daughter passing her A levels and my son passing his GCSE's as I thought it would be something different, how right I was. We were crammed into a booth for 4 with myself sat on what could only be described as a camping chair at the end, right in the middle of the aisle with people having to squeeze past me. We ordered 4 cokes and a water, that came in cans. On the website, it says you can have the 'cook at the table' experience for £33 a head or just the buffet for £22 each. You are immediately coerced into the higher price, even the the website states there are 25 dishes to choose from on the buffet. The kids went up first and came back with some noodles in sauce, when me and my wife went up, the majority of the tureens containing cooked food were empty, what was there had obviously been there quite a while. I floated around for 5 minutes with half a plate of cold chips as there was little else before we came out and went elsewhere. I'm fully aware of the concept of Korean barbecue as it's similar to Chinese hotpot, which I've had before and was lovely, but this was a bitter disappointment and if Hama Leeds want to succeed, they really need to have a rethink as this was appalling. I refuse to pay £165 plus drinks for half a plate of cold chips and a can of diet coke

Possibly the worst place ive ever eaten. £33 each . Given a table had to ask for cooking utensils 3 times. The hot food counter was almost empty with such a meagre selection if we had taken our kids all they would of had was chips. Thats if they could of found any! The meat selection looked as unappetizing as it tasted. Prawns in there frozen solid. I am bewildered how it gets any good reviews. My partner didnt want me to make a fuss in there when it came to leaving. I honestly felt like hitting the roof 50th birthday meal out and the worst meal ever. Sorry to the staff you were pleasant, but your food is awful!

This restaurant gave me the best experience in Leeds. The restaurant's kim gave me the most friendly experience. From the information on the table to the food description, I was touched. The two kim and shin always responded with kind eyes, and I felt free to eat. As an Asian, Liz's food didn't match, but the right buffet food and quality meat helped me heal my nostalgia for returning home, and I enjoyed the cocktail he made me called somaek. I never leave a review, but I leave a review thank you for giving me the best experience. If you want the best service, the best taste, please visit.

Good points: - the spicy cucumber was nice - the prawn crackers were nice - soju peach was delicious The meat was questionable, we couldn't eat it The hot sides were cold Rice would have been nice is it was a pudding with cream and nutmeg! The sushi was questionable (hot dog sausages) Didn't get asked if we would like another drink Had high hopes as I have never been to a Korean BBQ place before! Sadly won't be back. Hopefully things will improve one day All the best x

Wouldn’t give this food to my dead grandad. Do not waste you’re money here, the people that have rates it 5 stars must have never had a decent meal in their life. The chicken meat is clearly very cheap as it is woody🤢 and the sides (noodles, chips etc) were all cold. Chicken wings were so dry and there aren’t many options to choose from at all.

So been regularly going here every time friends came to visit. Seems last couple of times the quality of the cooked food has gone really down hill, service a bit slow to come clean the bbq table tops and plates. Given the price just the bbq meats it’s probably worth it for your first time but I probably won’t be going back for a while.

Having not had a Korean BBQ in a long while I set my expectations low when a colleague suggested we eat here The first good sign, when we entered were the amount of Asian customers Second good sign was the spread of meats and prawns The third good sign would’ve been the extractor fans they had in place….albeit none were ever switched on, so the place was fairly smokey Seating is booth like with the BBQ grill in centrepiece in the table A mix of cooked food, fresh and marinated meat and fruit for dessert Some of the quality of meat wasn’t great, but if I were to return, I would dine on the prawns and beef bulgogi again Service was OK…took some time to clear up piles of plates that we had no choice but to stack up on a bench beside us as they weren’t clearing up our table regularly enough….it wasn’t a busy night and it’s self service (BBQ Buffet) Would i actually return? Not if there is a more genuine Korean BBQ in Leeds….otherwise, I’ll just wait till my next visit to New Malden…or S Korea itself

This was my first time eating pork belly in a month since I came to the UK. We enjoyed everything at a buffet for £33. If you come to Rine, stop by and eat. It's cheaper and better than other Korean restaurants. There are a lot of different foods such as japchae, tteokbokki, and fruit. I was disappointed that I couldn't eat much.

Although the price is relatively high, the time limit is 90 minutes, and no drinks are included, almost all the snacks are delicious. The staff is very friendly, and there isn't much smoke from cooking. The quality of the meat is quite good, but it would be better if there were more varieties of fruit. However, the price is indeed a bit high, which may deter those who want to try a variety of dishes but can't eat a lot. Given the current poor state of the UK economy, this issue is exacerbated by hypocritical leftists who use environmentally harmful methods and prevent others from using petroleum.

However, almost all the snacks are delicious, the service attitude of the store staff is good, and there is no big fumes. The quality of the meat is good.

It made us all very very uncomfortable to the point we couldn’t even eat our food.

Rude, obnoxious, horrible. I asked to take in my four-year-old son to use the bathroom, at a moment where he was visibly very uncomfortable and desperate to use the toilet. I received an incredibly rude and obnoxious response from the lady on the door. At the end of the day it's their choice, but what kind of people would consider turning away a four year old? Truly, truly awful. Edit: It’s not uncommon for young children to need an emergency toilet break. In dozens of similar situations yours is the only establishment I’ve ever had give any push back. Even in dingy old man pubs, the response is always, “yes of course” in this situation. Maybe you had a bad day in which case it’s no biggie. Just accept the negative feedback and move on.

Great restaurant and a novel way of eating by bbq ing your own food on the table grill. Lots of choice of sides to go with your meat. Some really tasty pork and chicken.

I enjoyed every bit of it. It is my first time at a Korean restaurant, but I had the a you can eat buffet. This way, I tried every possible combination in my mind. The meal was tasty and well prepared. I also had the opportunity to prepare my own meals. The staff were really courteous and ready to serve. Adult meals individuals above age 12 cost £28, while the price of the children cost the age of the child. For example, an eight year old child cost £8. Would be glad to come back again.

Very nice concept, vibrant, and great service frequency. Staff were greatly attentive and friendly. However, if you are not a barbecue fan and not user-friendly, you may find the concept scary or fearful. After all, you do have a low-level grill heater in front of you at the table ...giving you delicious food prep and ownership of your meal. The focus is on meat, which is great, but the limited amount on side dishes other than sushi and no desserts... makes it fall from 5 stars. It lacks more than the main dish or buffet....

Hi , I normally never , ever do reviews on food or resturent we go to but i believe with this review i may able to stop other people having the same experience as we did. We visited this resturent recently me and my partner. We been to restaurants like this before so we said let’s try this one. Bear in mind im a clinician and have a very very accurate sense of smell when it comes to expired products. We went to get the meat, at first it looked fine , only one bowl had brown stale water filled with meat that we avoided. We were very hungry so we began cooking the meat immediately and waited for it to cook thoroughly before eating. After eating our first piece of meat , i got hit by the strong smell of rotten meat!!! I immediately told my partner and she knows how accurate i am with my sense of smell. She immediately drops her meat but it was a bit too late as we had already ate a few pieces. Today , the day after, we have woken up with diarrhoea and vomiting. Normally this meat in Asia its normally strored in shelves filled with ice - like a butcher store. It’s suppose to be red in colour not brown. This resturent covers their most rotten meats with spices so to make it difficult for people to smell it. If you are smart and do not want to be sick , please avoid this resturent at all cost. The hygiene standards there are very bad. Beside on the staff are very accommodating and perfect , but unfortuantely ive aslo reported you to food standard agency.

DO NOT EAT HERE!! I am honestly baffled of the good reviews for this place. They charge £29 for very limited options with the cook your own meat section being the worst quality meats I’ve ever tasted. I went with 6 friends with everyone agreeing that it was one of the worst places they have ever eaten with one friend walking out and refusing to pay. They put a protective layer on the grill and ask you to cook the meats on top and all that happens is after a few meats have cook the layer breaks up and goes on the meat. They said they would change it constantly but failed to change it once. The pain of this experience was only added by the £29 price. GO SOMEWHERE NICER!!

Decided to go to the Korean bbq place after seeing it a few times in leeds and waiting for a special occasion. Severely disappointed in the grim food which was tasteless. Most of the food was cold despite being in heater which made us question how long it had been there. Staff put cutlery on the table with no napkins and the service was poor. At one point I accidentally dropped the scissors and the staff member picked them up and put them on the table without considering replacing them until I asked for a new pair. A truly gross (and expensive) experience. Raised my concerns with the waiter who did apologise but that doesn’t make gross service acceptable. Will not be visiting again and do not recommend. Will not be surprised If I end up with a dodgy stomach alongside being extremely dissatisfied with the awful, dirty service. General cleanliness of the table and area was gross too - try cleaning the dusty, grease filled pipes which sit directly above the place people eat. Eugh…. Grim. Edited to add: ironic that you sacked a man - claiming it was HIS fault when it was a WOMAN with a FILTHY trolley who put cutlery on the table. How about addressing the dirty restaurant? You need to hire some cleaning staff!

One of the only K-BBQ places in Leeds and it is definitely worth a try! 28GBP per person for an all-you-can-eat buffet that includes BBQ meats and ready cooked dishes. (and FIVE different types on kimchi, my gosh!!) Definitely love the variety and big eaters can definitely get their money's worth. The fruits there are particularly good too! I'll let the photos speak for themselves! I knocked off one star because some of their meats are a little tough (ahem the beef steak), other than that, the marinated meats are SO good.

Our first experience of a Korean BBQ restaurant in the UK and an excellent choice. The only disappointment was theat the rice cooker broke down as we arrived and none was served before we left. The grill is built into the table so you can ensure the meat is cooked to suit your taste. It became very popular and soon filled with diners. The car park of Morrisons is close. You can park for up to two hours for 5£. A great introduction to Korean BBQ.

This is a Korean restaurant on the edge of Roundhay Park Leeds. There is a small free car park adjacent to the restaurant. All the dishes are Korean and include vegetarian and meat options. Portions are reasonable per person. We found the dishes to be tasty. Drinks range from hot teas/coffees to cold and alcoholic. The waiters were very polite and we were served by several rather than just one. Once ordered, food arrives within 15 minutes. On good days the many double doors can be swung open to allow sitting out on the patios.

I think my family and I were very disappointed with our experience here. I absolutely LOVE Korean food and have frequented many Korean restaurants in the past. However, I think for what you get, the food is very overpriced, and I say this coming from the perspective of the group containing a few vegetarians and vegans. So I totally understand that for meat eaters this restaurant must have been your equivalent of heaven. But for the vegetarians and vegans the options were limited and the staff were not particularly helping in addressing the needs of those in the group. It would have been really nice is there were tofu/ non meat options that could have been used on the grill, but sadly on our visit there was not. I hate to write about places in a negative light, and I do think that our experience was tainted by the fact that the vegetarian and vegan options were scarce, yet we still had to pay the same price as if were eating meat, so was not worth it at all.

We had an incredible experience at HAMA restaurant in Leeds on 3rd February 2023. Having explored numerous Korean BBQ spots, HAMA has swiftly become our favorite. The authenticity of their Korean dishes, combined with exceptional service from friendly staff, made it stand out. Surprisingly affordable, the kimchi was the best we've ever tasted, and the bulgogi BBQ beef was a flavor sensation, truly the best at any BBQ we've tried. The staff were genuine, helpful, and allowed us to relish our meal without interruption. Both the meal and drinks were budget-friendly. The restaurant was impeccably clean, and the restrooms were spotless. We highly recommend HAMA and eagerly anticipate our next visit. It deserves a perfect 10/10!

You can definitely eat your moneys worth because they have prawns and squid. Meat selection is decent, steak, chicken and beef options. The crispy mayo chicken bites (forgot the name) are really really good. Slightly lacking in options however but it's pretty solid for the price.

Authentic , not salty food. Lovely staff . Will come back for all korean food. You just need a soup and some korean dessert ☺️ Second time again . Now they have soup. It’s good though many MSGs . Anyway it’s good because korean food is meaningful with soup. Will be nice if there is korean dessert. My always go to place for korean food 🥰🥰🥰

Had a lovely meal here (06/01/24) Warm, accommodating staff and a fantastic selection of pre-cooked and a wide selection of meat to grill. A wonderful experience. I've also developed a taste for Soju too.

It was a great experience for me and my family. The staff are friendly and helpful. Beer is in small bottles 330ml. My Mrs. likes the red wine. There's a BBQ on the table, just go and choose your meat. Plenty of choice for food.

It was a great evening out for me and my family. Staff were friendly and helpful. More than enough choices for food. It was my first time in buffet restaurant. I like it. Just to know beer is small 330ml 😔, but nice in taste. My Mrs. was happy with the red wine. You can do BBQ on the table, just go and choose your meat.

Absolutely loved this place. The food was amazing and the staff could not do enough for us. Would definitely recommend and saw nothing that the 2 previous reviewers claim.

The food was absolutely amazing, and would recommend people to come. However, staffs doesn’t seem to be honest as I’ve noticed they’ve deducted 61 pounds in total from my bank instead of 60 pounds ( including two person and one asahi beer), as the staff double checked the receipt after paying , and didn’t say anything regarding this

So disappointed. Smoke machine not working. Smoke in everywhere. Food is marinated so sweet. Restaurant is dirty. 28£ and all I can eat is some pieces of fruit. Not worth money at all.

Worst BBQ experience. Empty line, BBQ exhaust didn’t work, staff did nothing we had to bring the dirty dishes away ourselves.

Would rate 0 if I could. Charge you full price when they don’t even let you do the full 90 mins, say they’ll call the police on you if you don’t pay the full price. Food tastes bland and is watery. Should have stayed at home, don’t understand what the hype is all about.

I am writing this review to share my distressing experience at this restaurant last night. Merely half an hour after finishing my meal, I was struck with severe diarrhea, followed by a whole night of relentless vomiting. The ordeal didn't end there; the intense stomach upset continued into the next day. The primary concern was the freshness of the meat served, especially the shrimp. While eating, I noticed a peculiar taste in the shrimp, which was off-putting. Reflecting on the miserable night I endured, I strongly believe that the cause of my vomiting and diarrhea was the poorly prepared and possibly contaminated seafood. It's disheartening to experience such severe health consequences from a meal that was supposed to be enjoyable. I urge the restaurant management to strictly monitor their food quality and hygiene standards to prevent such incidents from happening to others. As for potential diners, I advise caution and perhaps seeking other dining options where food quality and safety are assured.

Choice of raw meat is okay. Cooked food though not many choices but is generally good except that the rice of the roll is not well cooked. The fan above the bbq stove is not working well. You will be all soaked in bbq smell 🤪 Service is good. Staff keeps on collecting empty dishes. Appreciate if more vegetables will be provided.

The food was good and the service was quick. There is a wide variety and selection of authentic styled Korean foods. The only thing that could be improved are the ventilation devices do not remove a great deal of the smoke from the meat cooking.

Looks the part with a large selection, but food was not good. Meat quality was definitely low as didn't taste like much.

This spot might not be great for a fancy date, however, the food is delicious. Portions are massive, prices are low and service is fast. I would have liked to see a larger selection of iced teas as I was told there was none and there was only hot green tea. It is a place where you go to eat something delicious cheap and quickly. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. 4 stars is only due to lack of selection of drinks. Only thing to bare in mind, the duck is served with a chunk of bone which is cut up, shards of bone may be present, id recommend having a knife and fork to take it apart if you're having the duck. Food is 5/5, I have been waiting for a long time to discover a spot like this. Recommend you bring cash to pay.

We have visited twice in recent months for two family celebrations. On our second visit we had the Ivy experience costing £60 per person and thoroughly enjoyed the food. However we did not pay the 12 .5 % service charge. Mainly because we feel the drinks are very over priced. £33 for an ok bottle of Pinot Grigio and £46 and £35 for 2 bottles of sake 250 ml. We were going to have cocktails but £40 for a margarita is way out of our price range. We will probably return but not anytime soon.
