Kimchi House in Colchester

Literally sat in the restaurant still eating this mate this katsu curry is immense, highly recommend

Thank you for everything. All the time when i come to eat I leave the restaurant very happy 🫶🏽 ( I love you Ramen soup) ❤️

I ordered the Ramen it was so nice. The service was perfect.

Great food, Great service, Great value for money. They don’t miss.

lovely, tasty food. really nice spring rolls. soft fluffy steamed buns. delivered quickly and still hot and fresh when it arrived.

Not the best experience. We were served undercooked chicken wings which is a huge salmonella danger and could lead to foodborn illness. Even worst, only 2 wings were undercooked, so we ate a few before noticing the issue, and one still had pink/bloody bits left next to the bone 😔.The waitress took it back to the kitchen, and the chef wasn't happy about the complaint. Eventually the waitress took it off the bill, but it was an uncomfortable situation, as we could hear the chef being outspoken about the complaint ... Really nice waitress, but very unpleasant experience in the restaurant 😕

Food is freezing cold where it has split all out the bags and leaked , 2 very disappointed boys

If you're looking for good Korean food, packed full of juice and flavour this is definitely the place, the place is extremely clean and even though the venue is small they make it look very spacious! The server was lovely and she was quick and attentive even when I asked for an extra after we ordered which she quickly brought over, overall everything we ordered was fairly priced and extremely tasty and will definitely be coming here again!

Loved it here, myself and my dad ordered loads of little dishes to share to get a taste of a lot more food and everything was AMAZING! Was in the perfect position to eat before the cinema across the road and was honestly some of the best Korean food i have ever eaten - would definitely recommend it. Very reasonably priced for the quality of the dishes!

Lovely food. We went with waiter recommendations and we were really pleased. Good portion size and the food was really tasty and fresh. Highly recommend.

quite literally the best Asian food in town

It absolutely fulfilled my expectations. The menu was amazing had to restrain myself from ordering too much. Lovely food, fresh and hot. Totally adding this to my favourite places to go. Friendly and helpful a hidden gem. Prices were really good too

A great meal pleasant surroundings 3 starters 2 mains 2 desserts 2 drinks well worth the money will definitely come here aga👏👏👏🏆

The food portion is ridiculous, you basically get nothing. we ordered and waited over 1.5 hours for the food.

Great food. Very friendly staff & quickly served

I've been to this place 3 times now and really love it. The food is delicious, the service is on point and the staff are all very friendly.

Lovely place for a taste of Korean cuisine. Service with a smile.

Our server was absolutely lovely and so patient with my very indecisive family who I went with. In total, we were a group of 5 people and all ordered one thing each totalling to £70 - I found this very reasonably priced. We ordered the chicken udon, chicken buns, beef bulgogi, boneless chicken, and cheese dduk bok gi, which was mine and absolutely the best I'd ever had! I sometimes find it too be a bit too sweet for my taste, but I found the sauce to be not overly sweet and I thought the portion size was perfect to finish before hitting that sickly sweet feeling I sometimes get with this dish in other places. My dad really enjoyed his beef bulgogi (despite my unfortunately blurry picture), which was actually still sizzling in the pan when it was brought out and smelled amazing. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and had a great atmosphere as well!

Delightful experience at this Korean gem in Colchester! The Chicken Katsu was a savory delight, and the hot Korean chicken wings had the perfect kick. Service was excellent, and the ambiance added to the enjoyment. Dining with an infant was easy as they had high chairs and accommodated our requests. Highly recommend!

My regular and favourite, Korean Restaurant in Colchester. Everything they have in their menu, is worth every penny. 👍🏽

Wonderful dishes and magnificent service.

Awesome vegan choises . My friend isn't vegan, but Imade the vegan choises too

It's the best Asian food with some of the kindest staff

The food was delicious, although my portion of noodles was much smaller than normal. However, it was the best udon dish i’ve had in a long time! Thankyou

The Kimchi Jeon are addictive. Not had a bad item from their menu,

The chicken was very chewy and gristly

Excellent food, delivery spot on

The noodles was cooked to perfect, the garlic chicken wings was absolutely amazing. I might try the honey mustard wings next. Delivery came earlier than expected. 10/10 😋

This place is a bit of a hidden gem, eat here often, the food and the staff are always amazing, I've never been let down. Surprised so few people have tried it but when ever I take someone new here they always leave having loved the experience.

Lovely tasty dishes at a reasonable price

Authentic taste, good portion, quick serving and friendly staff, relaxing ambience.. What more can you ask for. Recommended!!

The boa Buns are absolutely disgusting 🤢, gritsle in the chicken, DO NOT BUY FROM KIMCHI KITCHEN.

Amazing taste, bit pricy for the portion size

Lovely food. Intimate dining. Friendly staff

Really nice food. Will defiantly order again.

It wasnt delivered and i paid online.

The food was wonderful but the smell in inside wasn't particularly great. Anyway we had great time so it's ok👍

Very good Korean cuisine. We tried several dishes and they were all freshly prepared and delicious. Will definitely come back even if living in Chelmsford! And would really recommend to friends!

Delicious as usual! Love the addition of the smiley faces on the boxes! Thoughtful and sweet and makes me smile!

The jajangmyeon was a but sad. Portion wise was smaller than I expected. I wished they served it in a bowl instead as it was awkward to mix it in a plate. And classically jajangmyeon should have some yellow daikon radish on the side but there wasnt any. Flavour wise of the noodles werent too great either, I have had better. Kimchi pancake was good but portion wise was too small. Bibimbap wasnt too bad, its the best dish amongst the three but the heat from the hot stone bowl of the bibimbap was their only saving grace.

The food was not very traditional Korean food but more like Chinese food. It may because the owner and staff are mainly Chinese. The price was reasonable and the service was great.

family of 4just had a great lunch there! there isn't a kids menu so we had few starters and two mains and that worked out perfectl

I'm not Korean or have visited South Korea ever, so I can't compare with proper Korean food, but we enjoyed the noodles, bibimbap and mandu at a reasonable price

I love the food, delicious flavours, just the right spiciness. Friendly staff.

Love the food, love the ambiance. It's a great restaurant for a date or a fun time every situation fits. Would advise to book in advance it's very small and would be difficult if to get in you didn't book

Unfortunately the food was very bland. I was very supprised as I know Korean food has lots and lots of flavour.

Authentic Asian food, very friendly service and kids friendly too. Love the BBQ pork and the bun! Yummy!

Great food, very friendly staff, great value. Recommend it!

Great food at a reasonable price, I had a drink, starter, main and dessert for £20. Wide selection of food for all tastes. Smashing service, friendly, helpful and not at all pushy, l had a lovely relaxed lunch.

What a gem! Lovely staff and really good food. If you like a bit of chilli heat in your food then this is the place. If you don't, this is the place. Really good value and generous portions, especially in the bowl meals. Lovely kimchi, as would be expected. The wine is drinkable and cheap for a restaurant. It is located opposite the Curzon and is great for a pre or post meal.

It was my first time trying Korean food and it was so delicious! The service was very good as well, we didn't have to wait too long for our meals. I would definitely come back!

Food is great but the delivery time was way too long we ordered at 5:30 and it turns up at 7:05….

Amazing Korean food. Loved the taste, and the service was quick!

Waitress is absent most of the time, didn't remember orders and food was horrible. Not a single food dish

consistently tasty great food. never disappoints

The best, most delicious takeaway food I have ever had anywhere! It was a search for something different that prompted me to order and I was so pleasantly and delightfully surprised. The Korean wings were scrumptious, the katsu chicken was delicious, I have leftover kimchi which will be fabulous on its own, and I look forward to reordering and finding my way through the menu.

Best food I have had in Colchester and try the soju

Really nice place 10/10 would go again . Staff are so lovely and food is incredible!

Food was average but kimchi pancake was bit dry. Staff not friendly, felt unwelcomed

I have never had a bad dish from here! The Dduk Bok gi was to die for!

excellent delicious food and extra fast delivery.

Food was really nice and tasty.

2 of the starters were soggy rather than crispy. One main was dry and the other one bathed in oil. Not recommended.

The bibimbap is very sad, with only few veggies and tons of spicy sauce, the rice are just plain rice without any trace of the burn,crunchy flavour or scent from stone pot. Kimchi pancake is so dry that hurt your teeth and deep fried rice cake isn't really deep fry.........Shame that this is the only Korean restaurant in town, and charged like you pay in London

Great food. But venue was so cold and the front door wouldn't close properly, which wasn't great on an all ready cold day.

Bibimbap was super delicious but missed kimchi. Staff unfriendly and impolite with us, they need some training. I asked a tea (come in teapots, 2£ person) and my husband did not want any drink. I offered my husband to try the tea and staff came immediately at us saying that he has to pay one more tea if he wants tea. very embarassing. The lady serving us was 100% focused on guarding the tea rather than if we have a good experience as customers. It was so much tea that I left more than half of it in the teapot, while my husband was afraid to take a sip lol😄I asked for extra chilli sauce and she insisted that is sufficient in the bibimbap but in the end she brought me the sauce. For take away I recommend the food though.

The food arrived cold and unfortunately was flavourless, it’s very disappointing definitely not worth the money spent.

Food is not bad, but need to be more attentive to customers….

Really greasy - literally dripping in grease. One dish was burnt too.

This is the 5th or 6th time here. The food is delicious, it arrives quickly and the staff are attentive and polite. One of my favourite restaurants. I had a lovely mother's day meal here today and we are all very grateful for your excellent service. X

We ate here recently, and had high hopes, but it turns out we were disappointed. Food was terrifyingly expensive, bland and sooo greasy. My chicken had gristle or bone in, the noodles were tasteless and swimming in oil. The Calamari was good though. Wouldn't recommend, certainly won't visit again.

Had a lovely meal here yesterday. I’ve eaten in many different restaurants and this food was served piping hot . We all had something different so could try each other’s dishes . Overall hot tasty food .We will be back .

Food was prepared against instructions, left in a note. Both meals had hardly any ingredients.

Great selection of various tasty dishes, each time we visit the area we make a point of popping in for lunch. Daughter loves the hot spicy food.

Can't comment on authenticity but food is absolutely delicious and service is friendly and helpful. Highly recommend beef bulgogi and pork bibimbap.

Food was cold. Box of noodles wasn't even full up (£9)! The sirloin steak was chewy and looked like it had just been heated up. A real shame, as I've ordered from here a few times and it was really good.

The food was below average. Service was poor and the food took 40 minutes to come. The host was hard of hearing and unwelcoming. I do no recommend spending a penny in this establishment.

The food was amazing as usual and delivery rider was incredibly friendly.

The pork belly was delicious and well seasoned.

The food was served hot and tasted delicious

A small cafe near the castle selling freshly cooked Korean food. There is a good selection of decent food at reasonable prices. A great place for lunch when visiting Colchester.

Absolutely delicious. Relaxing atmosphere.

Found a staple in my Pork Bun, and food was cold. Had to microwave every item.

Excellent food and quick service. One of the best restaurants in Colchester ⭐️

This is a Asian/Chinese fusion restaurant, not Korean. Had 3 different dishes and none of them tasted like Korean.

The food was amazing! I would suggest going here if you want to try Korean food, but it can be pricey.

Not authentic. More like underwhelming Chinese food than Korean.

Fantastic food. Lovely people with friendly service. Good prices. Had a great time and will go again soon! Highly recommend the beef ramen.

What a rip off. I will never order again from this place. This was my first and last order. Not happy with the food. Never ever again.

별로임 너무 달고 이거먹고 한식에 실망할 외국인들이 불쌍

Friendly fast service, food was amazing and really cheap, massive portions, my mums soup was still bubbling when it came out and my bibimbap was in a hot stone dish that changed the flavours and textures as it cooked more while I was eating it, highly recommend

Amazing food with great lt variety, service could be clearer for timing expectation. Mains and starters arrived at different times and took at least 30 minutes for everyone to be served, party of 7 but not expected that much wait. Friendly staff but might be better as takeaway.

We ordered kimchi pancakes which were nice as starter, but chicken bibimbap I had was terrible. The smell was really bad, boiled(?) chicken didn’t look like chicken, my partner’s meal was equally as bad we couldn’t finish it. Nearly 40 quid wasted, won’t go again.

The restaurant said it was just eat that makes the driver late. Either way we waited 2 hrs for food from ordering. Food was cold. Disappointing

Very small portion sizes for the price. Half of doenjang jjigae broth arrived out of the bowl and in the carrier bag

Nothing like the picture. We ordered the squid share and we got 2 tiny pieces definitely never again there

Great service and food was as good as eating in.

We chose this place to celebrate my birthday today. We ordered 7 dishes however, all came except MY order. My husband and friend started eating and halfway toward finishing their meals when i followed my order, this horrible cashier / waitress re-checked my order and spoke to kitchen staff. She said 5 more minutes and I thought 5 more minutes was too long for hubby and friend to finish their meals. Another group of customers came and said waitress served most if not all their orders, STILL without my meal. At this point im already frustrated and followed up with her again, she said she will check with the chef. Out of my frustration, i told her my hubbt and friend are already done with their meals. She didn’t even apologise, she asked me iNstead if i wanted to cancel my order which I DID to show her my frustration. She came when we finished the food and started removing the emply plates. I told her if she were in my place, how would she feel. She said if i wanted to complaint, i can talk to the boss. Which aggravated me more. Imagine being hungry and not getting your Order. I asked for the boss but she started ignoring me and acted like she’s not hearing me. So i went up to her i said i dont have all day, i have my daughter with me so pls get her boss so i could complain about her horrible customer service. It was repeatedly like that, me asking and her ignoring me till one of the kitchen people came and introduced himself as the manager and apologised, he said that they completely missed out on my order, he was so nice and really tried to pacify my anger, even my husband’s and friend’s anger at this point. I told him Im ready to pay, but can u ask her to apologise for horrible treatment and service, he then went and asked the lady but the same lady walked out right in front of us and ddnt apologise to us and talked back to the manager whom i believed asked her nicely to just apologse and be done with it. It was impossible. She was impossible. I hope the manager / boss teach her a leason or two. She shouldn’t be in any customer service industry as her people skills suck. By the way her name is Aomeng and manager’s name is Yuchen. I paid £51 for food we ddnt even enjoy due to rude service and attitude
