Mabait ung may ari kapag may bata at napansin nya may free melona talaga. More than 5 times na kami ng family ko pabalik balik dito pero ok pa din sa akin. Minsan yung inaantay naming food sa buffet minsan wala tulad ng sushi. Sarap na sarap partner ko sa seaweed soap nila. Sa bandang wall malapit ata sa kusina nila yon mainit hindi inaabot ng aircon.

4 stars for their affordable and yummy food. I just wish they use a working food warmers for their buffet. Also, I took a peep on their kitchen and was not impressed - a bit messy. I hope they designate a staff member to clean after his/her colleagues prepare their food.

Took my mom and dad here last night. It was so packed, but the staff were helpful and attentive. The food was great. They have different side dishes which I enjoyed a lot. Great eat for the price.

Conveniently accessible along the hway.
Don day is an old school Korean buffet and barbecue.

They offer beef and pork, and some dishes on the side.

Mixed pork and beef barbecue at 395 is good value for money, though compared to others you might prefer to go elsewhere.

No fancy cheese melt or different kinds of pork and beef here, hence the 4 rating.

But still a good place and value for money.

Family friendly buffet. It was affordable yet the food is good and the place has a homey vibe to it. Staff were very accomodating. Over all, place is highly recommended especially for small gatherings.

Super satisfied! Friendly staffs! Abundant servings and tasteful selection of foods. Value for money was worth it. Love it! Just 4 star because of c.r its a little bit messy,maybe because we're there during peak hours.. but they should assign someone to check it from time to time. Overall its still great.

Probably the most value for money buffet I've been to. It didn't fail with the food. The taste was good for the price I paid for. The choices were decent and the people were nice.

For a buffet less than 300 pesos, this is one the most sulit ones.

Our favorite Korean Restaurant since 2015 because of their affordable price. Japchae, Korean Fried Chicken, Beef Bulgogi and Tteokbokki is one of my favorite from their menu. The food taste sooooooo good. Mybe because the owner is 100% korean. The Kimchi taste sooooo good. They also sell Kimchi, Korean Ice Creams, Noodles, Yogurts, Soju and condiments. The owner is super kind. Even though the price is different compared from 2015, its ok as long as the taste of their food is as good as before.

My friends and i went here for a little despidida party for my friend. It was my first time to eat at Don Day's Antipolo so i was really excited like a kid. 😂

The price:
Don day offers a lunch and dinner buffet in which the price varies, like any other buffet restaurants. We went there at 1pm so we had a lunch buffet plus the unlimited pork samgyupsal which costs P350 only. This is cheap compared to other unlimited korean grills. The drinks have additional charge, and they have availble korean ice creams which also have an additional charge.

The food:
They have a long table in which the food are laid out nicely and accordingly. They offer different kinds of authentic korean food. They also had 2 kinds of soup, fresh vegetables, and fresh fruits. The pineapples we had was so sweet that i had 2 little saucers just for pineapples. LoL. But their pork samgyuspal was really fatty. It looked like it was 80% fat and 20% meat. I did not eat much but it was fine since they had a lot of other viands in their buffet table.

The ambiance:
It is a family-friendly restaurant. It is not fancy but it is homey. They don't have something like an exhaust to suction the smoke from the grills, though, it made the whole restaurant kind of foggy.

The service:
They really have good service here. The crew smiles everytime they come at our table. And there's a korean guy who i think owns the place, he's really nice and accommodates other guests when the crew is busy. My friend who came 1 hour earlier had reserved a table but waited for us to come, although they asked her a few times if what time we will be coming, they asked her nicely naman daw and she weren't treated differently so i really loved their accomodating staff and crew and their service.

Overall:
Food? Good
Price? Affordable
Ambiance? Homey
Service? Excellent
Will i come back? Of course, i will!

Celebrated my husband’s and his twin’s bday here .. big fam bonding .. price is just right and food is great ..

Like to go back for more and try their unli grilled meat ..

Cons: you go in smelling nice, you go out smelling food .. they don’t have the on the spot grill exhaust thats why it smells all over the place .. still a great place tho ..

Ok naman pero ung pork slices are little thick. And the place is too small. Mejo masikip at mainit. Sana maghire pa ng crew so that the requests of customers are served right away

I describe this resto as "Sulit" in Filipino term. The buffet food was delicious and reasonable for the price of 275 pesos. It serves variety of Korean food. The servers are accommodating.

I like the healthy food choices and fruits are serve for desserts. 👍Must try!

If you happen to watch Korean Dramas, i know you'll understand why my sister and I craved Korean food a lot more than an average Korean food lover would. So we went here at around 11am for lunch. We were informed that lunch buffet starts at 11:30 so we had to wait for half an hour.

Last time we went here was super late. If i remember correctly, it was 9pm and the buffet was almost empty but we still went home full.

My sister and i had the unlimited pork & beef (for both of us) for the table top grill experience. We thought ordering the unli pork and beef will be better instead of the separate unli pork (for my sister) and unli beef (for me) as the price for the combo is cheaper. But the pork slices are thick, and there's more pork than beef. My sister can barely keep up with my pace as i craved for beef so much, and their beef strips on plate comes in smaller servings than pork, are thinner so it takes less time to cook. For their unli pork+beef combo, you have to empty both plates for you to get another serving.

In the photos i posted here, there's a bowl of mussel shells. That's mine, and i won't deny it. I love seafood. And Don Day's take on mussels is a killer. I love it and i always dig on it first everytime. The servers are surprised and delighted when they take out a plate and a bowl of empty mussel shells from our table. Lol

We also enjoyed their Korean chicken. If i was craving for chicken that time, i would've eaten plates of it too. Haha! But, on that day, i was craving for grilled beef!😊

Their fried fish fillet was a bit bland for my taste. I asked one of the servers what kind of fish is it, she answered "Fillet", i said "yes, i know" while smiling. She paused and laughed at herself for her answer. It was cream dory though. Frozen fillet, thawed, breaded and fried.

My sister had fun with her samgyeopsal, and i enjoyed my chadol bagi though i wish i had more beef. Anyway, we both love their moosam (pickled daikon radish) and i'm searching for a recipe to copy.

The staff here are great. And the owner too. They're all very friendly, cheerful and polite.

The price we paid for our food is soooo worth it.

Affordable Korean food.

Cheapest Korean restaurant I've dined in so far.

The place is packed during weekends. Make sure to dine in here a little after 7:30 PM-Koreans who tour the Philippines swarm the place between the hours of 5:30 and 7:30 PM.

Super sarap ng foods nila. Kahit hindi ka na mag pork grilled kahit buffet na lang. 😊 At for me na hindi fish lover and veggies lover, I can say MABUBUHAY AKO DITO. 😂 Uulit ulitin ko mo siya sa sarap. Super sarap ng fish fillet with sauce. And veggies super fresh. 😂 Two thumbs up. 👍👍

Ang about the place maganda siya maaliwalas, medyo mainit lang.

And about sa mga staff nila, nakakatuwa sila at pati yung owner. At pag pasok sasabihin sayo "annyeonghaseyo". 😃 At meron din mga koreano/koreana kumakain dito. 😊

Great and affordable place to eat at with friends or family. For me the only downside of the place is that it gets pretty hot inside and I sweat a lot lol. Also, I wish they can add more variety to their buffet. The owners are very kind people and I always go here with my family.

The buffet menu is quite limited, but the food is really good. The place is small so it can get a bit crowded especially at night. :) The Kimchi is the bomb here!

Annyeonghaseyo! This post is sitting in my draft for quite some time. I just finished watching Love in the Moonlight Kdrama series. Actually, I'm not done with it yet. I am still missing the last part that was not downloaded. So out of frustration, I just decided to complete this post. We visited Don Day Korean Buffet Restaurant last year when we visited Casa Santa Museum. I'm with my office-mates together with my small family. They offers Korean Buffet and unlimited Samgyeopsal for an affordable price. Here's their wide arrays of buffet selection. The buffet alone cost P199. We selected the unlimited Samgyeopsal with buffet for only P299. But if you choose beef over pork, that costs P399. The drinks are not included. I enjoyed the unlimited Samgyeopsal. I had a total of 2 plates and was so full! I didn't really finished it all. I thought they will be charging me for it, but luckily the remaining food was not charged at all. We had the pork strips which are sliced thinly enough which can be grilled in a short period of time. You can also choose dips & fresh vegetables to go with your pork. Roll your lettuce and fill it up with vegetables that you fancy including dips or you can do that after.

Good place as an introductory nook for Korean food.
We had the beef and pork combo buffet; we think the pork cuts are a bit thick. Stack up on those lettuce and keep wrapping those beef!
If you are looking for a satisfying but not so expensive buffet, then this is the perfect place.

Affordable korean buffet. Limited options but all of them were good and worth the price. It was my birthday celebration with my friends that time when the owner accidentally hit the Christmas tree and hit me afterwards. The owner apologize and gave us 2 cans of Sprite as his service recovery. After that, the owner was always checking on us which I highly appreciated.

Korean buffet at its best and very affordable. 
They say quality and price don't usually go together, this is the exception to the rule. Food is of the highest quality yet it is priced very reasonably. We almost spend the whole afternoon munching just everything on the menu. Although drinks are not included in the price, who needs one in a buffet since just a pithcer of water will do.

I always crave Korean food. Probably because I am fond of watching those Korean cooking channels in Youtube. Don Day is my go to place since its just a couple of blocks away from our house. Also, you'll have an eat all you can feast for less than 300 pesos! Pork all you want, Kimchi all you want, soup all you want! The staff and the owners are very accommodating. Plus you can also buy their home made Kimchi for less than 200 pesos a kilo. I'll alway come back for more Ssamgyeopsal! ❤️

Don Day is a buffet restaurant that offers authentic Korean dishes. Food is good and value is worth it, but there are not a lot of choices. Drinks are not included in the buffet, so you have to pay extra.

Good food and cheap price doesn't always go hand in hand, but with Don Day this is an exception. I've been coming back to Don Day ever since I've discovered the place.

They have unlimited Samgyeopsal where you will be the one to cook your meat on the grill. What's good with Don Day is that they have plain pork or marinated pork you can choose from. But it's okay to choose the plain pork after cooking it in the grill for 3-5 minutes add lettuce wrap and dip in Ssamjang(chili paste, soybean paste, and sesame oil) or Gireumjang (salt, pepper, and sesame oil), the taste is still perfect! Other buffet favorites is the chapchae, potato balls, spring rolls and vegetable fritters.

The staff are attentive and often times they would introduce all the food in the table.

The place is well ventilated too, no need to worry thinking you'd get out smelling like a human bbq.

Had dinner last week with ample selection of korean and other foods. Kimchi lacked the spiciness it is known for. Soup was cold. The pork slices are good enough when cooked, great for samgyupsal (?). No fish available that time. Vegetables are fresh esp the lettuce.

For just P299., it was a great eat!
