This isn't a Restaurant - it has been a Korean food store for a number of years after very briefly being Narmi

Tried the jjajangmien(짜장면), seafood jjambbong(해물짬뽕), 쇠고기부추잡채랑 꽃빵, 깐풍기, 탕수육. Jjajangmien was alright. I had been starving of Korean-Chinese dishes, especially this one, and it satisfied me enough. I had jjajangmien last year summer at Korea and that place was much better, but for a place in the UK, not bad. Jjambbong was much better, it was appropriately spicy with the hot seafood broth done good. Still, wouldn't call it an outstanding one, but nevertheless satisfying. 쇠고기부추잡채 with 꽃빵 was a good appetizer. It had been ages since I had this kind of dish and it was much better than I anticipated. The chives were cooked and evenly coated with the beef's sauce synergizing well. The steamed buns accompanied the beef and chives well, and they were indeed steaming when served. A recommendable side dish. 깐풍기 was okay, better than the 탕수육 which felt a little too chewy. Both were very average. Overall, a moderately good Korean-Chinese restaurant, it does its job in being somewhat authentic. The major issue I would mention are the portions compared to the prices. I have lived in the UK in the past and visited this place quite regularly with my family, frankly, the taste has degraded a little with the portions while prices rose. Of course inflation has happend since then, but I still consider the prices a little too excessive. Additionally, I recommend reserving a seat before eating at dinner times as we were unfortunately served at a cramped seat. If you're Korean living in the UK missing 중식, yeah this place is worth a visit. But if you are just a visiting Korean craving it, I would say it wouldn't be the best choice. For new comers, this place would be a good introduction, but definitely not the best it can get. Somewhat recommend.

It’s a real shame this used to be so good but unfortunately the staff are so rude, and abrupt. Tonight’s food was cold and the chicken curry was gloopy and just not very nice. The food isn’t amazing so won’t be in a rush to go back! Our previous family meal we spent £160 and collected then found all the chicken balls were raw inside 4 portions. We rang them and collected a new order while the other food was sitting at home. They didn’t even apologise.

Now closed This restaurant appears to have lost its identity. It used to offer a great menu, but all our group could say today was ... It's "Ok". Before it was always "Fantastic". Original review Limited menu. Average dishes. A far cry from this once excellent restaurant.

This has been a family favourite for many years. We couldn't recommend it more for authentic and very tasty Chinese food in a laid back Hong Kong style cafe space. We go here for any special occasions and even just for a quick bite at lunch or dinner tonight.
