Kimchi Korean Restaurant in Birmingham

This was my first time ordering takeaway from this restaurant, and I was quite pleased with the experience. I discovered that Sylvia provided exceptional service—she was attentive, kind, and knowledgeable about the menu. I would definitely rate her service as five stars!

Exemplary service from the waiter Simon. He mades us feel so welcome from start to finish, service you would expect from the highest quality of restaurants. The food was also good and alongside his excellent service we will definitely be returnin. Especially if Simon is there!

Very professional, quick and tasty! Felt very welcomed

Randomly find a Korean restaurant and lunch is more delicious than expected. But the portion is a little small

If you're feeling like home-cooked food while in Birmingham, go to Kimchi Restaurant and have a meal right away. You will feel happy eating a warm meal prepared by your parents.

Delicious korean cuisine with reasonal price. Stew / Jigae broth were our favourite this time! Best lunch to have with friends or family.

I ordered stir-fried squid and it was delicious. I was really satisfied, perhaps because it was my first seafood dish in a while. The person serving us is really friendly.

This is my favourite food place!! No matter what you order it is delicious 😋 Price is really good for the quality and is my go to for a little reward to myself

A nice place to go ! Food are really good!!

The food was extremely greasy, and the chicken served on the rice was boiled, tasteless, and clearly microwaved—it even still had foam on it. When I went to ask the staff for some tissue, I saw the chef smelling the chicken wings, which was quite off-putting. I didn’t even bother taking the rest of the food home. Definitely won’t be returning.

Really good food and service was fast. Pretty good value if you get the lunch offer but we arrived too late so missed it unfortunately.

A very authentic Korean restaurant in Birmingham. Never know I can find such good Korean food here. Kimchi Soup is really good. Price is alright too. I will visit the next time I am in town

Good Korean food. Highly recommend

I recently visited Kimchi Restaurant in Selly Oak and was thoroughly impressed! I ordered the pork ramen, and it was outstanding – the broth was rich and full of deep, authentic flavors, and the pork was incredibly tender. The entire dish was a perfect blend of traditional Korean flavors. On top of that, the service was fantastic – friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. This place is an absolute lunchtime gem, and I can't recommend it enough! I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.

Awful pseudo korean food, overpriced worthless scran unfortunately :( It's too different compared to when i visited South Korea. Food was too different, not authentic and too expensive you should not be pretending to sell korean food like this to be honest very disappointing.

The best Korean you'll ever find! Authentic and delicious food, wonderful service. We keep coming back.

Been coming to kimchi for nearly 2 years. Great place with decent pricing and food is amazing as well as service and interior. Chef special was my go to but I just wish it had more meat options instead of just pork

Tasty food excellent service can't get wrong. Keep up the good work.

Absolutely amazing, made a reservation for my 19th birthday and had the spicy squid sizzler. The lady who sat us is very sweet, and it wasnt too busy as it was a week day, i 1000000% recommend to anyone who loves korean food or any food with a kick! Absolutely amazing will be going back!!

Had the set lunch and it was really good value. Also ordered a few other items to share - seafood pancake & fried chicken. It was delicious, cooked to order so everything was hot and crispy. A really nice cozy restaurant, good service and decent food

Kushi who served us is the best person I’ve ever met in the ‘generation z’ who has work ethic and excellent customer service. Food was delicious too!

Day menu ordered: 1 - Katsu chicken curry > strips - it was overcooked, although the curry sauce was lovely. 2 - Topokki - definitely needs to add more fish cake! not many would also like cheese, please have the options for no cheese and noodles at all. Overall, I may hope to order again in the future, if further improvements have been considered. 감사합니다! ❤️

It tasted so bad that I ordered beef soup with rice. MSG soup, not much meat, rice is too sticky...

Amazing food would 100 percent recommend

When eating at a restaurant, rib soup is served in an earthen pot. I had no idea that in the UK, you would be able to eat rib soup and gobong rice boiled in an earthen pot like this. The amount of meat was generous and the galbitang was really great.

Delicious, got the chefs special set menu. Lovely staff.

Delicious affordable korean food and lovely service!

It’s real korean food. Especially Kimchi soup and Soft tofu soup. You should try and say if you expect the real korean taste !!!

Had the Chef’s special & it was wonderful. Lovely service too!

this is legit 💗 proven by 5 hungry koreans 🤭

This was my first time coming here, and I was surprised that it tasted better than I expected! For the price, the ingredients are fresh and the atmosphere is clean. Above all, I liked that the staff were friendly!

Lovely place, delicious food, great staff and service!

Great customer service, ordered their Korean chicken wings and dolsot Biminpab and it was delicious. I'll surely come again.

I ordered the set B lunch set with the chef’s choice. I got fall off the bone beef ribs, korean fried chicken and other side dishes. It was very good!

Food was great! The server was really nice :)

Enjoyed a nice afternoon bibinbap. Nice setting off the main street.

Great food so much gluten free options

Always our favourite Korean restaurant in Birmingham! Food always bubbling hot! Authentic tastes and decent portion! You have to try Korean fried chicken anf Korean BBQ!!!!! I would love for them to bring back Budae Chige ;)

Food was great and there was a good range of gluten free options which was a pleasant surprise. Would defo go again.

Great service but terrible food. Very bland and no protein in the 'lunch special'. I've never written a bad review before but the food was very disappointing! Wouldn't recommend to anyone looking for Korean food.

Fantastic Korean restaurant in Birmingham. I am a regular.

Delicious authentic Korean food. Nice and welcoming service and beautiful atmosphere.

Really Great food, Reasonably priced. Friendly staff.I highly recommend this restaurant and hope to eat here again soon.

This is one of the best Korean restaurants in Birmingham. I've been coming here since 2016 when I discovered it and it's amazing! The dolsot bibimbap is spot on!!

The price is cheap and affordable, and you can get a discount if you use cash. But I was not satisfied with the bibimbap because it was full of vegetables and no meat. But the portion of fried chicken is huge. Overall very good for the price

Sweet small place in selly, the service was polite and the food was very reasonably priced!

This is the best restaurant in Selly Oak. The service is so insanely fast, it shocks me every time when they put food in front of me basically moments after I’ve ordered it. The range of food is amazing and everything is so so good. It is our go to restaurant both for ourselves and when people come to visit us in Selly. The prices are also so reasonable for the quality of the food and the service. Servers are always so lovely and atmosphere is always great whether busy or quiet. This is our favourite restaurant ever. We’ve been here multiple times and tried most of the menu. This time we had the kimchi jeon pancake and some chicken teriyaki skewers for starter and for main we had the pork sizzler and the spicy seafood ramen. All were super super tasty and will definitely be getting again.

Love it in here, I always come back for the ramen! <3 it’s always so delicious and the interior is traditional and cute

Great place, will be coming back for sure!

clean restaurant and delicious food! great service too

Delicious authentic Korean food. Nice and welcoming service and beautiful atmosphere.

I always order my favourrite one “Galbi tang”. The most delicious food in Selly Oak.

Google users, I hope this google review finds you well. Great service, shame about the company (CW). Some of our party enjoyed the music a little too much (CW). Well priced, authentic food and created a warm hearted Monday night. Highly recommend. Yours in having all our free starters, (CW)

Sensational food, always loved it here (the lettuce is my favourite)

Food was amazing! Would come again!

Good food, but there are some menus that are not customizable (such as removing items from the dish)

Great food, nice relaxed atmosphere, very friendly with the kids. Been in 4 or 5 times and it's consistently good every visit.

Visited this restaurant in Selly oak, had a dinner with friends. The food was so amazing, and there were many food to choose from. The staff were so accommodating and the ambiance was great.

Been coming here for years whilst at Uni. Leaving Kimchi will be the hardest part about graduating. Genuinely one of my favourite restaurants.

Great service, great food especially the beef sizzler! Would deffo recommend!

Kimchi offers an amazing dining experience! The warm atmosphere and friendly staff made us feel welcome right away. The food was exceptional, with very tasty fried boneless chicken and spicy ramen. Beautiful presentation and top-notch cleanliness made our visit even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving excellent Korean cuisine!

The food quality is great and the prices are very reasonable. We come here almost every week and enjoy the food everytime. It’s recommended.

High value for money, the meals are not only large in portion, taste good but also come with excellent service👍🏻

Must try, highly recommended and friendly staff.

Spicy beef hot pot was very tasty.

I come here regularly, top notch as always. The courses are served at just the right pace, good portion sizes and lots of extras with your order like salad and miso soup.
