Mine and my friends’ stomaches hurt after this restaurant. The dishes are not the best, don’t look appealing too. Would not recommend to anyone.

Had the grill at the table. Price for All you can eat - 23 + for 1 more you can also order all ready-made dishes in unlimited quantities. The seafood was great, but unfortunately we didn't like the taste of the meat. Sauces were nothing special. The finished dishes were good but nothing special. If you are very hungry you will be satisfied, if you want high quality food you might be disappointed. The waitress was only on her own, but she could have asked more often if everything was OK or if there was anything else she wanted.

The name of the restaurant directed in the maps is different. The name is Gangnamn korean restaurant, so we were a bit confused if it was the restaurant. We were soo hungry and was too cold outside so we just went inside and ordered. We had the meat grill buffet. The quality of the meat were good. It was soft and chewy. The ambience of the place wasn't very superb as well as the service because there was only 1 staff serving for the whole resto.

This is the first and the only review I had on Google. I was attracted by the Korean BBQ advertise on Google, but all the food they served can be named as fake Korean BBQ. The meat and sauces were extremely disappointed, they were not the ones you usually get in any Korean restaurant. The lettuce on the menu came up with cabbage. Even worse, my friend vomited after arriving home. Please don't go!

Went a few weeks back with a few friend for the all you can eat experience. The food was mediocre. We ordered some prawns which came undercook. The meats for the BBQ were either weird in texture or didn't really have a nice taste. The rice cakes, noodles and tofu was delicious. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. One thing that also bothered me is their poor ventilation system. My clothes smelled like friend food for a few days after our visit. For £25 you can get a better meal somewhere else.

Was pretty quiet when we got in, I think they'd just opened. However the staff was really nice to us throughout. They will even laugh at your jokes, if you ain't funny like me. The food was ok, we had the buffet. Wasn't anything to particularly write home about, we had the spicy wings, smelled great but there was literally no flavour to them. Dumplings again were OK. The best thing we had was the bbq ribs, now I could write home about those ribs. The main reason I gave this a 4 was mainly to do with how great the staff are. If it was purely based on food, 2ould probably be a 3.

The hot pot the first time i went was great. Presentation and food was great. Second time i went, We had korean barbeque and it was terrible... The meat was alright, but what really disappointed us was the spicy hot pot package which cost £30. Inside that was nissan noodles you can buy from a chinese cash and carry for less than £1, spam ham, hog dog sausages and poor quality bean curd. Ridiculous. I've read the reviews in the past and of course the unlimited korean barbeque was not there anymore. The people serving are nice and friendly, but the language barrier is a huge wall. Their situational awareness is also very poor. Not once have they walked up to us to see how we're doing, even when we are looking at them signaling we need something. This place is just far too expensive for korean barbeque, I can't recommend this. The hot pot is the best thing about them as it requires them to serve literally one thing and walk away.

Came here for table of 5 on 18/01/20. Place is run by mainland Chinese people. Restaurant looked nice and clean. We had to ask the waiters several times to be served which wasn’t good. Our water was “forgotten about” as well. We ordered the meats for the Korean BBQ which was quite good. However, on the other hand we ordered the “spicy sausage stew with rice” was a joke. £30 for a pre-made hotpot for ingredients which I had exactly at home and could’ve had!! Overall service is a shambles. Left disappointed and definitely will not be back. Avoid unless you want to get ripped off with cheap instant noodles and cheap meat for the hotpot. Go to other hotpot establishments instead

Our food came during the expected window, was hot and very tasty, but missing some spring rolls that were ordered. The restaurant decided to replace said spring rolls with extra rice for some reason. I called the restaurant, and after some back and forth, they agreed to send the missing spring rolls. Would definitely recommend for the food quality, but was left a little disappointed by the reluctance to fulfil our full order.

The service was very slow even though it was almost empty. My main course and rice arrived then about 10 minutes later my husband's main course arrive without the rice. Then my daughter's meal arrived and a few minutes later my husband's rice. It took over 15 minutes from my meal being served to the complete order being served. I think this is completely unacceptable. The staff were nice but didn't seem to understand English very well so it was difficult to explain why we were not happy. Don't think I would go back although the food was fine.

Ordered chicken Teriyaki and boiled rice... where to start. You could tell the chicken had been frozen and was not fresh, maybe not even safe to eat. It was like eating mush and there was a weird wet chewy sound when I ate it. No flavour what so ever. The boiled rice was overcooked so they didn't even get that right. Took 1 bite and didn't even finish 1 bit of chicken.

They dont smile at all that i thought maybe thats the requirement on getting hired in their restaurant. I came in the UK to have a good time and their bad aura is rubbing off on me. This one is the complete and total opposite. I love everything about this restaurant. Will recommend this to everyine who will come in the UK.

Desilusión completa:Tuvimos la "barbacoa coreana" que no era fresca y costosa por lo que te daban (19. 90 por persona por su "fuente de mariscos": grandes trozos de salmón congelado, calamares masticables, mejillones que no estaban frescos y 6 gambas pequeñas) También pedimos una porción de la "costilla de buey" que claramente no era costilla, sino trozos de ternera duros y masticables.También pedimos tempura king gambas que resultó no ser tempura batter, se sirve gambas maltratadas que se esperaría de una comida para llevar, no es divertido, ya que la imagen en el menú muestra claramente TEMPURA king gambas.Es malo que este restaurante no sirva lo que dicen en sus menús y te sientas engañado.Hay muchos restaurantes asiáticos en Edimburgo, y si quieres una auténtica comida coreana, te recomendaría Kim's Mini Meals o Sodaeng.No tengo ningún problema con los chinos que manejan un "restaurante coreano", pero esperaría que al menos proporcionen una mejor experiencia culinaria. La camarera fue muy amable y educada, pero desafortunadamente esto no distrajo el hecho de que la comida era inferior a la media. Muy decepcionado, ya que el restaurante en sí se ve bien por fuera y por dentro, pero la comida es una decepción total.

Lovely food they served with the idea for family gathering and friends where you can barbecue yourself (that I have previously tried amazingly) and also a buffet style for seafood steaming (that is so healthy and fresh) at only 19.80 per person with bottomless drinks at 2.80. Besides, the staffs are really helpful and friendly as it was the first time we have this seafood eaten in a steam pot with broth underneath that eventually becomes seafood broth after all the steaming. Definitely a right place for seafood if you’re a seafood lover. 😉

Best Korean food in Edinburgh! Been here twice for lunch the the mains are amazing! The starters- pajeon was good but the kimchi pancake was a bit too oily for me! The tteokbokki was a small portion too so I wish they offered a bigger portion as a main! We just went straight for the mains the next time and they were all great.
