Nice Two Meat U is one of the best Korean Restaurant. The quality of meat are the best and the veggies are super fresh. The set of side dishes are nice and delicious. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a good korean restaurant.

It’s easy to recommend nice two Meat u (yes, this is how they write their name) to anyone who is looking for premium Korean barbecue. At nice two Meat u, they offer fresh cuts of samgyupsal as well as flavorful side dishes. What’s more, you will not have to worry about overcooking or under-cooking your food because the restaurant staff will do it for you.
Long overdue compliments to this resto bc this is the best korean bbq resto I have been to thus far. Kudos to all the crew. I've been here multiple times and their service is always warm and welcoming. Must-try is their cheesy mashed potato. This is a zomato gold partner on 2+2 drinks so best to try their Korean Ade drinks, personal fave is the Grapefruit. Btw, you can tag along your fur babies. They even lend us water bowls for our two dogs. 😁✌
First time to try this authentic resto in Circuit. 5 stars! Things I love:
1. Their table is spacious. It's not cramped even if there are 4 to 6 people unlike other samgyup places that when they put all the side dishes eh super sikip na. (We were only 2 at that time so the table was really spacious)
2. They cook the meat for you. Which makes the meal more enjoyable and smooth.
3. Set meals are affordable.
4. The baked cheese and egg. 💣🔥😋
5. Wide selection of lettuce/greens plus very insta worthy! 👌
6. Sides are not overwhelming. Not super dami.
7. Nice, helpful, and accomodating staff. They have a lot! Which means every table can be attended to right away.
6. The drink is huge!
7. Hotpot! 😋👌
8. 2+2 on drinks for Zomato Gold

Everything is nice from service to food. Price becomes cheap if you buy the group meal offer. Definitely recommened.
Good food and nice service. Very accommodating. 😊 We ordered seafood ramen and I loved it, it's very spicy. 😋 We also ordered the samgyupsal plus galmaegisal because you cannot order only one Pork BBQ, they said it should be two. They will cook the BBQ in your table. I also loved their gimbap classic. Also, you will order a Wrap Me for the lettuces and it's refillable. What I love also with their sides are refillable for free and it's very delicious. This is the Korean Restaurant that we always visit when we go to Ayala Malls Circuit. ☺️
This is my favourite Korean restaurant! It’s a bit pricey compared to other Korean places but you won’t be disappointed. I just love how they serve and cook their food. Everything is clean and organised. For me, they also have the best side dishes as what Korean restaurants are famous for. The meat they serve you are also seasoned and aged to perfection. I just super love it! And since I’m a KPOP fan, it feels good to hear good updated music while chilling out! We always come back here!!!!
Ate here with office mates. Good beef! Love their pear juice. There were only us as their customers so customer service is good too. Would recommend to have another branch 😂
Tried the pork BBQ set with soup, and salmon salad. The food (specially the meat) is very delicious but pricey, but this is compensated by the excellent service. They have very attentive and very respectful staff!
My first time to eat here :) Great and affordable sets! Staff are friendly and allows songs / album requests haha! We requested for BTS Persona and Love Yourself albums to be played and they delivered!
Everything is worth its price. The service the crew provides is outstanding as well. The girls were all kind and helpful, food was good also!
The only kbbq i know that serves five types of lettuce.Meat is tender and flavorful plus the staff would grill the food in front of you.Did not wait to get seated.No desserts available though.
Clean and flavorful meat! I love the fact that they will cook the meats for you ❤ there's few people too, we didn't have to wait in line ❤ we'll go back for sure!

One of the top reasons to visit Circuit Makati, Nice Two Meat U offers a different Korean dining experience.
Nice Two Meat U has more flavorful and tender meat by having it wet aged. Compared to Dry Aged meats, Wet Aged meats are aged in vacuum packs and doesn't lose moisture.
They also differ from the others because they use a full cast iron grill. This is good that the grill could be heated up to very high temperatures (250 degrees) so the meats are seared nicely. And cast iron are naturally non-stick and healthier than Teflon pans/grills.
What to order....
1. Get a Drink - they offer several fruit ades from Korea. We got to try several flavors from Mango, Green Apple to Cherry and Kiwi. But my all-time favorite is the Grapefruit.
2. USDA Beef Brisket (Chadolbagi) - this is my favorite among the meats. The cook their brisket differently by folding it. It is nicely seared and yet still juicy.
3. USDA Beef Short RIbs - my second favorite.
4. USDA Beef Rib Eye (Deungsim) - nicely marbled steak cuts of rib eye.
5. Samgyeopsal (pork Belly) - when they cook this, they weigh it down with a grill press for even cooking.
6. Fish Cake Hotpot - an array of different types of fishcakes in a vegetable-mushroom broth.
7. Cheese Gimbap - don't miss this cheesy rice roll.
8. Get something fried - good bet are the Squid Fries and Veggie Fries, a mix of tempura battered sweet potatoes, mushrooms, onions, sesame leaves, and squash.
We ordered Set B. I like the cut of the meat and the side dishes were all very good. I really like K-BBQ restaurants who got an assintance button to facilitate faster attending to needs. And yes they cook the meat for you.
The food is a bit expensive but okay for its quality. The service is great. The staff is very attentive. They will be the ones grilling for you.
Favorite restaurant in circuit Makati. We come here almost every 2 weeks. The food is always good. Portions are good and enough for many people. You get good value for money here.
We went there on a sunday night to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday. I asked the staff if they do something for birthday celebrants but she politely told me that they don’t have anything like that. However, I brought a cake and told them if they can give it at exactly 12 midnight and they said yes, no problem. When the clock struck 12, to my delight, they dimmed the lights and they started playing a birthday song and went to us with the cake on hand and with all smiles! A+ for customer service! They are also very accommodating when it comes to orders and they have a huge serving of the pork set A. I also appreciate their kiwi and blueberry ade drinks. And as a kpop fan, I really like their playlist ;)

The staff are really nice and attentive to all your needs, especially with refilling all the side dishes. They are also the ones who cooks the meat for you. Ordered their set for 4. We loved the egg n cheese. Chapchae is flavorful but it's a bit sweet. You must definitely try their Beef ~ Super yummy!!
Food - value for money; What I really like about this place is the guarantees freshness of their meat. My friends and I really loved their egg roll and fish cake side dishes. Two thumbs up for these!
Drinks - the complimentary drinks that we got is also good and really refreshing. I forgot the name (my bad) but it’s like their houseblend sparling lemonade 👍🏼
Place - the restaurant is clean and well-maintained. Ambiance is also superb. Good for family and friends’ bonding times
The place is cozy and the restaurant's staff were quick and alert in serving your needs. The meat were tasty, however, there was one that didn't pass to my liking since it wasn't tender enough ( not able to recognize among the four).
Overall, it was a pleasant experience considering the place ambiance, quick service and food quality.

We had samgyupsal at nice two Meat u. There was a long waiting line since it's Valentine's day, but we weathered it out till we got our table at the balcony. We had a great view of the courtyard and it was a balmy evening, just perfect!
We had the Beef Set B (P2,599) and the Pork Set B (P845). The beef set had 400g of Galbisal and Tohsisal steak cuts,
Japchae noodles, banchan, greens and hotpot. While the pork set had 300g of Moksal and Hangjeongsal pork bbq cuts, banchan, Egg 'n Cheese and greens. They also served us lemon water.
The great thing about it is that, Sarah, our server also cooked the hotpot and the meats for us to our desired doneness.
She served the hotpot soup as the intro to our terrific meal. It was hearty with pieces of meat, veggies and silky tofu. There was a very slight hint of miso.
Then came the steaks, which she served in bitesize pieces. It was great to wrap it in lettuce or sesame leaves, put some banchan like kimchi and dunk it in sesame oil or the fermented sauce. Alternate this with bites of the Egg 'n Cheese or the Japchae for some K-popping flavors.
We proceeded to do the same with the pork cuts. This was my first time at nice two Meat u, but it will most definitely not be the last.
Great food, great service as well. I would recommend this to all my friends to try this resto. Best place for reunion and birthday celebration
I like this resto. It's bright and roomy. There's a button for calling staff if you need anything. Complimentary house tea and water were served. Serving sizes were mostly for sharing.
10-slice Salmon Salad (php499)
Samgyeopsal (₱170)
Galmaegisal (₱170)
French Fries (php310)
One of the best Korean restaurants I have ever been to. Their pork and beef are good. Japchae is delicious. The spicy fishcake is my favorite. Staff is also accomodating.
Food tastes great. Ambiance is nice as well. I been here several times already. Highly recommended. 4 stars, because first time i ate here, their menu and pricing were VAT exclusive. I raised this issue with them then and it was handled badly. But good thing that it has been resolved since then.
Favorite Korean BBQ place. We love the food and the service! Will always choose this place over unli bbq joints. Hope they open more branches.

I thought it was expensive because the meat was not unlimited. Well, I realized we didn't actually need unlimited meat because it's just the right serving for the 2 of us. We ordered Set A, which includes 300g of pork samgyup, unlimited sides and lettuce, and 1 hotpot.
I ordered extra rice coz I couldn't help it. Haha! We wanted alcohol and the server recommended the plum soju. Whoah, it was so good that we ordered 1 more.
I love the quality of their meat. You can tell right away by the smell while grilling.
The best part is their service. The resto was almost full but the servers were all attentive. They come right away when the sideplates are almost empty and they refill them.
We'll definitely come back!

real authentic korean bbq! Samgyupsal is cut thicker, just like in Korea. They use wet aged meat and the server cooks for you! They have an infrared thermometer, a timer, and a grilling stone to properly sear the pork. Food is ALWAYS made to standard. Love love love nice two meat u. GET THE SMOKED SAMGYUPSAL!
We always love coming back here with the family :) The servers are very friendly and full of energy! The meat is very delicious, not too oily but still flavorful!
My love for korean food could’nt be denied as I always make it a point to dine to any K resto atleast twice to thrice a month. We found this K resto a year ago in Makati that me myself and I would always go back again and again because of
1) The service (they will coook for you. They will grill along with their timer to make sure that the meat are not under/over cooked, yung tamang luto lang based on your pref) 2) The veggies are fresh and organic (4 choices of wraps samahan mo pa ng mint pantanggal umay) 3) The meat here are premium and of quality cuts 4) The staff are friendly and attentive that you yourself would respond “Nice Two Meat You too” Follow me on IG @kircdeguzman
One of the best kbbq places I’ve been to! The meat serving sizes were just right. The sets are reasonably priced. The staff were also very accommodating. Better than unli kbbq places!
UPDATE: MAKING THIS 5 STARS BECAUSE FINALLY THEIR SAENG GALBI HAS FINALLY ARRIVED AND ITZ GOOOOOD.
A 4.5 actually. The .5 because we got used to free green wraps in other ala carte korean restos lol but seriously it's good. I hope they can have saeng galbi in their PH branch soon.
Highly recommend Galbisal and the beef brisket, you can politely tell them not to overgrill it to make it medium rare. Kimbop is also a must have. Sides are also yummy. You can go there a little after lunch to avoid crowds but noise is manageable.
Not an all you can eat which is fine by me. Samgyupsal is only at 170 by the way but you have to purchase the greens separately.

So I ordered a pork set, with gochujang soup (?), and beef brisket, and honestly, it was above average, but definetly not the best I've tasted.
The beef brisket, in my opinion was a bit rubbery, but the pork cuts were juicy, and tender. The Gochujang was a bit spicy for me, but the flavor was there, and I really did enjoy the few spoonfuls I had.
The variety of greens provided did make me happy HOWEVER the fact that you're basically forced to order a set is confusing to me. I asked my waitress how much a set of greens cost, and she told me that it was 120 per, in most restaurants you don't even have to pay for that kind of thing. Moreover the small array of side dishes provided (only 5 if I remember correctly) was saddening. Though the fact that they were refillable, and pretty great offsets that.
The ambiance and lighting were good, and it was actually really, really cold. The doors were open as well, so we didn't get the usual stuffy greasy air that permeates most Korean BBQ restaurants, and allowed the music from the nearby concert grounds to flow in.
Overall, the experience was, like the food, above average, I'd definetly go there if I were in the area with no specific place in mind.
Ah yes, the pricing, I almost forgot, generally well priced, and costs around 2000 for 3 people, without drinks.
If there’s a 4.5 star, would have rated that!
Nice two meat u was definitely one of those premium KBBQ experiences I had yet. Such an excellent service where staff cook meat for you. They serve aged meat that were so good to eat 😭😭 And they use cast-iron grill that makes perfectly-cooked meat.
Would love to taste meat differently from the other though so this explained the .5 star. But really love this place!!
Super delicious hot pot!!! I really enjoyed the Samgyeopsal, Hangjeongsal and Galmaegisal. the overwhelming delicious Daenjang ❤️ very nice and friendly stuff, they will even cook it in front of your very eyes, mouthwatering!!!!
Very tasty BBQ and fast serve. The restaurant is easy to find and you would feel quite hungry when you enter. One thing I would suggest is to remove the Chinese translation. It is not clear about the idea after reading several times.😅 Overall it is a bit pricy. I ordered the couple set but finished alone without any effort. haha, Bon Appetit!
We both are avid Korean BBQ fans. We probably have tried over 20 Korean BBQ restaurants in total. Our experience with nice two Meat u— absolutely amazing!
We ordered the Chadolbagi, Galbisal, and Samgyupsal. We make it a point to try the thin beef, thick beef, and pork when we visit any KBBQ. This was near-perfect.
The Chadolbagi was succulent, marbled perfectly, and was soft any way you cook it.
The Samgrupsal was great. The porky, grilled-to-perfection taste you’re looking for in a nice cut of pork belly is all there. Irresistible down to the fat.
The Galbisal was extremely savoury— though it was a bit tough.
One amazing dish that we totally died for was the Mashed Potato (cheese) dish. It was one of the most perfect side dishes to have with your beef and pork.
Finally- one indicator that this restaurant truly lived up its goodness was the fact that the Kimchi was on point. Many times, we know when a KBBQ is good by the taste of their kimchi; this one was on point.
Cozy place to have a nice Korean dish, perfect ambiance, very clean and well lighted place, very authentic quality of ingredients, but most especially... very accommodating and friendly staff! Will recommend this place! 😊👍
Searching for an authentic Samgyupsal restau? “Nice two Meat u” got u! This is how it should be: Grilling on the stone, having varieties of Korean greens wraps (Ssam), and fine cut of meat.
Food: Expect much. They will teach you how Samgyupsal experience should be.
Price: A little pricey but its worth it.
Place: Cozy place.
The food was great and the service was excellent. I like that they will cook the food for you as it is more efficient and energy saving. However, note that there were not a lot of people when we went there (around 12am) so I am not sure if they will be as efficient if it was full. But my overall experience is amazing and I will definitely go back!
Ordered chadolbagi and prime ribs (?), we tried ordering whatever the equivalent of beef and pork belly were. The food we ordered was alright. We liked the side dishes and the servers were accommodating for the most part.
The battle now with Korean barbecue places is to serve unlimited proportions. But with Nice 2 meat u, what they offer is not the amount but the experience. No more hassle on over/under cooking the meat as they will cook infront of you and the best thing is you’ll simply eat.
#shallireturn to nice two Meat u?
Went there with my friend last friday and needless to say I had the time of my life! It wasn’t your typical KBBQ since they were serving us actual steak! It was sooo good but being noobs in cooking these type of beef we had to ask help from one of the waitresses. Gladly they were all very much willing to help! They crew was so many everyone could be accommodated very well. 5🤩 for me! Definitely one to try.
"You come for the food, and stay for the service." Food was great, the meat and banchan was spot on but the service is what sets the place apart. Will definitely be coming back.

In search for the best korean bbq joint, we ended up dining at nice two Meat u.
Location. It’s easily accessible if you frequent the area but if it’s your first time going to Circuit Makati, it might be a bit of a challenge.
Ambiance. I like the chill ambiance of the resto. It’s very modern and I like the cement finish of the walls as well as the open ceiling showing their ventilation. It also doesn’t scream korean unlike other Korean themed restaurant.
Service. Kbbq joints usually have attentive but overly hovering staff but that’s not the case here. Each staff is designated to a specific table but they don’t hover around. They have this button on the table you just need to press to get the attention of the designated staff. They also cook the meat for you but I don’t know if they allow the customers, if requested, to grill the meat.
Food. Food is fresh and that’s a plus especially for a kbbq joint. I love that they have perilla leaves and that they have several options for the greens. Not in love with their kimchi but I so so love their doenjang hotpot. Also, I never had wet-aged meat before so I don’t know how it should taste. Should it have a distinct taste? Like I said, idk so I can’t give a comment on nice two Meat u’s claim that they do wet aging. All I can say is their meat is fresh and that is really, i mean REALLY, a plus point.
The ambiance and service was great. There was a remote on the table so its easier to call for assistance. The food was good, i really hope that their serving would be bigger.
Loved the sides, especially the japchae. Pork belly was so good. Good ambiance and not so much people compared to other korean restos so that’s a ++. Staff were also very friendly
They deserve 5 stars because of their service! They are all very attentive and helpful. Kudos to the manager for the effective setup/system.
The food is not bad either.
Don't forget to tip! :)
Based on the name of the resto, I didn't expect that this is another Korean restaurant. We ate hede during Father's Day and there are quite a lot people. Many were on the waiting list but they can accommodate them very well. The foods are delicious but not that unique. Just korean foods. The foods are a bit pricey compared to other korean restaurants. The service is great! So fast! Love it!
nice two Meat u is another Korean themed restaurant located at the second floor of Circuit, Makati. Its spot has a perfect view of the Globe Circuit Event Grounds. It definitely is a perfect venue to bond over Korean food with family and friends. The place is spacious with lots of Korean items to see, this is a sure hit to those who love Korean culture. Even the music is all Korean too to make you feel the vibe.
Please visit my website for more information. :)
we've been here last nigth for our late dinner.
we ordered beef set C for just two of us but this set is good for 3-4persons. It comes with sides two kinds of meat,different vegies wrap and it comes with soup.
i really love their meat for all the korean restaurant i visit this is the best,their meat so tender and juicy the quality of meat is excellent. Also the sides is refillable,
I like the ambiance too,every table have a buzzer if you need something else,the staff is so friendly they will asisst you.
i will go back here again now this is my favorite korean restaurant,althougth they're not buffet or unli. Price is worth it.
This hidden gem tucked in the most hidden corner of a hidden corner (for now) of the Ayala Circuit Mall has 2 unique value propositions to its adoring crowd of Korean Cuisine fanatics: 1.) Wet aged meat and 2.) full cast iron grill. This is what makes their meat flavorful (especially the brisket). It’s that packed with flavor that even the gas you belch would have remnants of the meat and the marinade (please don’t get grossed out). Coupled with fresh and high quality sidings, dining at Nice two meat you is a culinary experience you should go through if you relish on Korean food.
Kung gusto niyo ng relax, maluwag at hindi magulo na Korean BBQ Restaurant, I would recommend Nice 2 Meat U. Ok, hindi siya eat all you can Korean BBQ so wag muna kayo ma-disappoint dahil may explanation ako dyan. Pwede itong date place or place para makipag kita sa mga friends ninyo kasi cozy ang lugar, at syempre malamig, malakas ang aircon. Unlike sa mga unli na Korean BBQ resto, aminin niyo na masikip, mainit, walang sandalan ang mga silya (it means para mangalay ang likod niyo para umalis na agad kayo), mamantika ang table saka ang sahig. Tama ba? Hahaha. Quality ang mga meat nila dito so "reasonable" ang mga prices nila dito. I ordered galbisal, kasi yun ang favorite ko hehe. Basta ok dito!
What I loved the most about this place other than the food is the ambience, cleanliness, and great service. The menu does not only focus on Korean bbq, they also offer a lot of other delish dishes!
First of all the place is clean from the place itself and their utensils. The meat are cooked on cast iron grill. The beef is soft and tender once they are cooked. I love the soft and juicy texture (di makunat in short). Will be coming back from time to time. They have a lot of drinks coming from Korea.
It definitely was Nice two Meat this Korean Grill that I've never heard of until it popped out of a Zomato search! I'm glad it's still not on other people's radars, so I can enjoy it somw more without falling in line.
Jap Chae could use a bit more meat for the bite, but was tasty. Samgyupsal cooked by the crew who provided 100% undivided attention.
Will definitely be back! P.S. They're open until past midnight, in case your cravings come at ungodly hours.
Been in Hiatus for sharing reviews of various restaurants for a year now, but I never stopped eating and exploring food.
Been here in Nice Two Meat You Korean Restaurant and I can't remember how many times I came back.
What I really love about this place is the set meals they offer and the unli side dishes... haha
Also the refreshing fruit ades that they serve...
Recently, we tried the fishcake soup... hahah with different kind of fishballs and veggies... no charge for for additional soup. Nice!
So if ever you drop by Circuit Makati, I would recommend this one.
I've been wanting to try this place, when I did it was worth it, used to live near the area when this was still a race track and felt sorry that there were no places like this. I used to go to here because there is a famous lugawan and gotohan nearby. This place is one of my favorite now for Korean restos open until 2AM even on a Sunday which really good for us since we go to mass late..
The food was good and reasonably priced. Generous serving of wraps.. The meat though is thick if you want it bite size then you can ask the friendly staff for a scissor. All the dishes we had are good and flavorful, I enjoyed the fish cake and the egg and cheese. Will be back soon! staff and service are fast and friendly!
Our tummies were so happy after we finally got to try Nice Two Meat U, a Korean restaurant at Circuit Makati, a few weeks ago! We were supposed to have our wedding anniversary lunch at Nice Two Meat U last year, but we were disappointed when we found out that they start their operations at 2PM. We then made countless of attempts to try Nice Two Meat U but to no avail. Until one day after hearing the Sunday mass, I noticed that there was already someone manning the store! Ang OA ko nga because I remember screaming out of excitement as I told my husband, “Tay!!! Bukas na ‘yung Nice Two Meat U!!!” My husband reciprocated my excitement as I saw his eyes gleamed with joy! HAHAHA! Nice Two Meat U is very spacious. We have been to the restaurant twice this month, and we were the first customers on both occasions.

Food: 4.5/5 - We ordered the Pork BBQ Set A (Samgyupsal and Gochujang Hotpot). Everything was refillable except for the Hotpot and the pork. I really like the variety of vegetables and toppings and also the pork is really tasty. Also, this is the first Kimchi that I liked to eat. I’m not a fan of kimchi but this one is just goood!
Service: 5/5 - The crew is the one who would cook the meat and hotpot for you so you can go ahead and enjoy talking with your company and relaxing. They have a buzzer per table so if you need anything it would be easy to call the crew. Also, they refill the water (water has lemon in them, super like this!) every 10 minutes or so.
Ambiance: 4/5 - You can go here with your friends, family or even for a date. It’s a nice place to chill and also, the place is not really crowded. There is no Wifi service, so you really get to bond with the people you are with.
Overall Value: 4.5/5 - I was really full from our order and I would really try the other things from the menu next time. (They have the so called wet aging technique for their meat, I think this is what helps the meat to be real tasty) 💕
Pork BBQ Set A has samgyupsal, hotpot and the usual greens and banchan. I like the thick meat and the flavor that goes with it. Opted for the mild version of hotpot. Ample amount of tofu and beef, although hotpot serving is just enough for 2 small bowls. Not much choice on banchan but I did enjoy the pancake.
The place is spacious, very clean and well-lit. Service spoils you. Meat is pre-cut and cooked for you precisely. Same goes for hotpot.
Great food, great ambiance, superb service, truly value for money!
Will surely be back to try out more of their dishes.
What we had:
Fishcake hotpot - very flavorful
Pork belly set B - love the mac and cheese and the thick slices of pork belly
Love that their wraps and side dishes are also refillable and unlimited.
Good food, instagramble resto, value for money. Just take note that prices in the menu excludes service charge and value added tax. This is a good hide away not recommended during rush hours for the location
Food: Awesome but not worth the price (Huge Hole in my pocket). Meat is good but I've been into places were meat is great but will not blow a massive hole in your pocket.
Place: Could have used maybe 3 Aircon.. I asked for a restaurant not a Sauna. Maybe they should just become a sauna instead LOL
PS: Came here on a Busy Sunday Lunch time at Circuit Makati. There was an event at the Concert grounds so the amount of people really tripled than your average Mall traffic...
-very friendly and accomodating staffs
-well-ventilated place even if the food is being cooked on your own table
-food set meal is too pricey for its normal taste and small quantity
Loved the food and the ambiance. The girlfriend's crazy about the hotpot, spicy and tasty. Pork BBQ set A is more than enough for two (samgyupsal + hotpot + banchan + wrap me) for only 888php. You can order rice for 50php a cup. Place is non-smoking but there is a smoking area at the ground floor. Definitely dining here again soon. :)
I celebrated my bday here with a blast, last September 15, 2017. So much satisfied with their korean food as well as very good customer service. The place was excellent with cozy and very nice ambience. I highly recommend this resto such a great experience to dine in with family, friends and loved ones. I'll definitely come back again soon thanks for the heartwarming experience.
Probably one of the best Korean Restaurants I've eaten at! Protip: Don't go without ordering the meat platters and corn cake (P199) 😋❤️ Great food, great staff, and great ambiance! I can definitely see myself going back here again. It was truly Nice to Meat U, @nicetwomeatuph! ❤️💕

One of the best korean restaurants that offers korean authentic food. 😊
We ordered their BBQ Set A which consists of samgyeopsal (any combination), doenjang or gochujang hot pot plus a banchan, gim K and wrap me. All their side dishes are refillable as well as their wraps for the samgyeopsal. 👍
The meat is tender, fresh and very tasty even without the oil and paste. Their crew cooks your food for you including the hot pot. I'm just not sure if you can cook it yourself.
The mac and cheese is one of their mouth watering side dishes. Suprisingly, the top of this dish is filled with oozy gooey cheese. The tomato sauce used is a bit sweet which is a nice contrast to the melted cheese. 👍
Overall:
Korean ambiance ✔
Accomodates customers in big groups ✔
Quality ✔
Quantity ✔
Price of food ✔
They have a nice place, a cozy one. Good services but the food is slightly expensive. I prefer it for special occasions like a date night or with friends.

Finally! One of the best barbecue chain restaurants in Korea has arrived in Manila! nice two Meat u with its spacious interior and contemporary feel is such a delightful place to dine in.
nice two Meat you is probably one of the best Korean restaurants that I've been to. Ideally shared with friends or family, their menu never fails to impress, especially when it comes to the taste and rates. By the way, they don't have wifi here as they encourage interactions with the people you're with.
I extremely enjoyed the Pork and Beef BBQ Sets! Each come with sides, and the freshest leaves for ssam (wrapping the meat with leafy veggies). You can also avail ala carte orders of these (the wraps are refillable!), but note that they have a minimum of 200g per order of meat.
To take advantage of the optimum quality of the meats that they offer, do have their staff prepare it for you. Apart from the wet aged meat wrapped with natural herb, a meticulous process of heating the cast iron grill to 250°C is done before putting the meat in. And then they cook each side for 44 seconds. That's how they cook it to perfection! I like my ssam and will keep on saying it until you try it. However, if you simply can't eat without rice, better have a go at the Stir fry Bibim Rice. It's healthy and is paired best with the bbq sets, especially if you think that eating ssam wouldn't be enough.
For all you spicy lovers out there, you might want to consider trying out either their Doenjang or Gochuchang Hotpots. If you like your hotpot light and flavorful, go for the Fishcake Hotpot.
There's a high chance you'll fall into a food coma after eating such rich and delicious food, so make sure you aid your digestion with a cup of their Hot Quince Tea. That fruit is like a lovechild of pears and apples, and I guarantee you that you'll love it. They also have a wide selection of colorful Fruit Ades if you like carbonated fruit drinks.
Overall, it was a remarkable experience because I did actually meet several new friends when we dined here. The atmosphere and service were highly satisfying and the levels of perfection that they put into creating their fine food is outstanding. Excited to take my other friends here next time!

RATE: 4.5/5
One of the best Korean restaurants that offers authentic quality Korean dishes.
nice two Meat u is located in the second floor of Circuit Makati overlooking the Globe Event Grounds. The place was spacious and could accommodate plenty of guests. The interior has a casual dining feel. They purposely did not place Wi-Fi so the customers could spend quality time together.
This restaurant serves traditional Korean food like galbi, sangyeopsal, bulgogi, and more. You have the option to cook the meat yourself, or you can ask their crew to assist you in cooking the meat. Their meat undergoes “Wet Aging” process. An aging process that allows the meat’s natural enzymes to break down the connective tissues that makes the meat more tender.

Went here yesterday for a proper Korean barbecue dinner, and this place did a good job of it.
As for the food we got, pork and beef cuts as our meat, and ordered rice balls, soup and such extra.
The meat was grilled well for us, I enjoyed the beef overall, though the pork was a bit fatty and overly chewy.
The soup and rice balls as well as all the side dishes were nicely made and had good tastes all around really.
Another highlight here though were the drinks. Both of the Korean style drinks we got were super tasty, and on top of that were served in big goblets which was just a nice extra touch.
The entire meal overall did really taste good and I did enjoy it all except as said for some of the meat not being top notch. Another thing to highlight was the live cooking aspect here, as the service personell will bring the food and make most of it right in front of you. It was enjoyable and I liked it a good bit.
The staff in general as well were quick and attentive. The prices here as well are vat exclusive, but at least this restaurant mentions this in the menu, on every page.
Overall a very enjoyable experience, mostly let down by some meat that could have been better.
Went here on father's day. The place was spacious. The food was tasty, and our dad enjoyed it. It's not the usual grill place where you cook for yourself, they do it for you. It's gives plenty of time to eat and chat. The hotpot and bibimbap were great too.
The picture says it all. A legit Korean resto in Makati. It is spacious and feels clean. The servings are just right and justifies the price. No wifi, that is why I'm uploading this just now. Paid 2k+ for the a wrap BBQ set, fish cake soup(not sure), cheese macaroni for my baby and a bottle of soju. Definitely will come back..

Nice Two Meat U is located at Circuit Ayala Mall. The place was spacious enough that could accomodate a lot of guests they also have a cozy ambiance since you'll have a view of a wide skyline of makati and a greenery open field from the Globe circuit event grounds which is literally beside the resto. The place reminds me of the modern houses in the Kdramas that I watched since the resto has huge glass windows that you could literally see everything which is I like a lot "homey vibes". Also, if you're a fan of kdrama's soundtracks you'll surely love this place.
😜
What's unique about Nice 2 meat U is their cooking process start off with their meat that were processed through "Wet Aging" which makes the meat tender and so delicious. Next, their Grilling process, they use 100% Cast-Iron Grill which is an expensive one where meat are grilled to literally perfection.
*Galbisal USDA Beef Short Ribs P449
*Samgyeopsal Pork Belly P159
*Hangjeongsal Jowl Meat P159
Three hearty korean meat to die for! 3 words could express my love for these meat.. Tender - Juicy - Delicious!!! I love the way it was prepared that was also cooked with a right amount of fat. There were no any added flavor or marination into it. You could simply taste the flavor and aroma of its own meat. High quality meat it is that would simply melt on your mouth which is a perfect match with the fresh cruncy wrap me veggies.
Here are the other dishes that we've tried:
Egg N Cheese P249 - This egg was not dry not like the other korean resto that I've tried. The egg and cheese were cooked nicely. The egg was moist and there's a right amount of seasoning in it.
Mac N Cheese P249 - Who would have thought that this English dish would be one of the mouth-watering side dishes that I could try in a Korean resto. Surprisingly, this Mac N cheese were topped off with a lot of melted cheese and a bit sweet tangy tomato sauce.
Mom's Fried Dumplings P199 - Crunchy dumpling that was filled with lots of fillings. Nothing extra ordinary for the taste but it was nicely fried.
Fishcake Hotpot P399 - Hotpot with Korean fishcake, veggie & mushroom. I actually liked this soup that I didn't mind eating those fishcakes even though my tummy was full already haha. Special mention to that yellow striped fish cake that has a yummy filling.
😋
Doenjang Hotpot P299- Traditional Korean Soup with Korean bean paste, tofu, mushroom, veggies and beef that was rich in flavor from the korean beef itself and the bean paste.
Gochuchang Hotpot P299 - Spicy version of the Doenjang Hotpot that has a Korean chili paste. I like this hotpot more because of the spicy kick in it which I love more.
Stir fry Bibim Rice P299 - Every Korean dish wouldn't complete without a rich bibim rice that has a lot of colorful and tasty ingredients that would make a rice standout.
Spicy Seafood Ramen P199 - I super loved this Ramen the spicininess was intense yet tolerable for me thjat I find it delicious for me also because of the seafood flavor coming from the mussles, and other seafood.
Grapefruit Ade - Nice two Meat U offers a wide variety of fruit ades that was so rich in flavor and so refreshing. I ordered the grapefruit one since it is one of their specialties and since grapefruit wasn't an ordinary fruit.
Overall, It was a great experience. The food was prepared and cooked with quality. The place was lovely. The service was awesome they all treat their customers nicely and cheerfully. I do respect the fact that they don't have Wifi 'cause you're here to eat and have a quality time with your partner, friends or your family. Would definitely come back! "Nice 2 Meat U.. Again?" 😉☺️

Nice Two Meat U is conspicuously located in Circuit Makati. It has a great view of the open field in circuit, which is a great location if you want to peak an eye on Circuit Makati's many events(you're welcome 😜). The restaurant does not have WiFi for it encourages human interaction, a more laid back feel to really enjoy the experience intimately with the people you're around, while being served with great Korean dishes right at you.
Serving up wet-aged processed meats, Nice Two Meat U steps up to the plate as one of the unique Korean restaurants that graces the heart of Manila. With their unique process, their meats give off a more juicy, clean, and flavorful taste compared to the usual means how other Korean barbecue is served.
Some of the meats that they have are as follows:
Galbisal USDA Beef Short Ribs
Sangyeopsal Pork Belly
Hangjeongsal Jowl Meat
Nice Two Meat U also follows a standard cooking procedure on it's Korean barbecue to assure it's patrons a delicious feast. From the cooking temperature, to the cast iron's quality, down to the cooking time (44 seconds! Who would have thought!?), everything is calculated to assure that standards are maintain to achieve quality Korean barbecue.
Aside from the meats itself, Nice Two Meat U also has a wide array of dishes. Here were some of the dishes that can be found on their menu:
Egg N Cheese
-fluffy, flavorful, and definitely cheesy! A great pallate cleanser that helps fill you up and keep your heart warm if you had enough meat.
Mac N Cheese
-served up on a hot plate, this mac and cheese is hot and gooey, a nostalgic treat that reminds me of a bowl of my favorite home made mac and cheese at home.
Mom's Fried Dumplings
-these dumplings are packetts filled with a mixture of flavorful meat and vegetables, a great side dish that gives off a good crunch on the outside, and a savory filling.
Doenjang Hotpot
-I loved how refreshing the soup was! The soup's light broth help clense your palate and tease you for more.
Seafood Ramen
-I normally don't eat spicy food, but this one was an exception! The broth was also light and flavorful and with the spices that were included on it, it helped hyped up the dish to a whole new level. It's noodles were cooked right and is very flavorful for the broth has seeped through it. With the broth and the seafood, it maintained a harmonious rhythm altogether.
Overall, the food is very tasty, diverse, and affordable. From a hefty budget of Php1200 to Php1500, a group of two to three people will definitely be fed full and highly satisfied. Nice Two Meat U opens from 3:30pm to 2am on weekdays and 11:30am to 2am on weekends.

Where to meet for meat? At Nice Two Meat U most definitely!
It's another Korean restaurant to add to your list of must-tries. Conveniently located at the 2nd floor of Circuit Makati, it offers a good view of the Globe Circuit Event Grounds. The place is airy, clean and quite perfect for big crowds/families or intimate dates. I love that the place has glass panels that open to the veranda outside. It has a huge space too and is very versatile since the restaurant has tables outside for people who would want to enjoy the view of the grounds. It also makes the place well ventilated and not feel stuffy at all.
Their food is quite IG-worthy too! The owner is keen on details and food art. I appreciate the well-placed presentation of the meat, the careful balance of the colors in the bibimbap, and the symmetry found in lined-up banchan and lettuce wraps that all added to the aesthetic appeal of their food.
Their food is also not just pretty, they're quite flavorful! The owner boasts of the wet ageing process they employ to enhance all their meats. In wet ageing, the fresh meat is seasoned with herbs, vaccumed sealed in plastic under 5° between 3 to 4 days. At the table, the meat is cooked using 100% iron grills, with natural pork fat, garlic and herbs instead of butter. The meat is grilled at a 250°-heat, and their friendly staff even monitor the cooking time to the second to make sure the meat is done right.
They offer different cuts like USDA Beef Short Ribs (Galbisal - P449), USDA Beef Rib Eye (Deungsim), USDA Beef Brisket Deckle (Chadolbagi), Pork Belly (Samgyeopsal - P159), Jowl Meat (Hangjeongsal - P159), and Blade Shoulder (Moksal).
All these cuts can be ordered by 100-150g platefuls. However, I highly recommend getting their meat sets since these come with the meat of your choice, an arsenal of unlimited banchan (side dishes) and a refillable tray of lettuce and vegetable leaves for wrapping. It also includes one or two of their hotpot dishes and sizzling sides or salads. For banchan, they have odeng (which I thoroughly enjoyed because I had numerous bowls of it), kimchi, and pickled vegetables garnished with black sesame seeds.
I have also listed a few of the other dishes which you can enjoy with your meat sets:
Salad
- This was presented beautifully on a stone slab. The vibrant colors of the vegetables make this a lovely-looking dish. However, I am not entirely a fan of salad so I let the others finish this.
Mac N Cheese - P249
- First time to eat mac and cheese hot off a skillet! Still flavorful but tastes nothing out of the ordinary baked macaroni. Could be more cheesy. I believe this would be one of those dishes you can order if you have kids in tow.
Egg N Cheese - P249
- A simple opener for your meal but a must-try for every Korean food lover. I love that the steamed eggs came out fluffy! Better eaten when it's piping hot to enjoy the melty cheesy goodness of both the eggs and the cheese.
Spicy Seafood Ramyeon - P199
- A Korean feast wouldn't be complete without spicy ramen! The heat made this fairly appetizing. They included huge prawns and mussels to complete the seafood experience. A nice addition to your meal specially if you want a bit of heat to liven up your palate.
Stir Fry Bibim Rice - P299
- One of the prettiest bowl of Bibimbap that I have seen. Tastes authentic too! The vibrant vegetables and seaweed mixed with that sunny side up egg meld well to give a harmonious delicate flavor. Add this to your samgyeopsal for a tastier wrap!
Mom's Fried Dumplings - P199
- I like that there is just a faint hint of kinchay in this dumpling.
Doenjang and Gochuchang Hotpot - P299 each
- Complete hotpot filled with Korean chili and bean paste, tofu, mushroom, veggies and the beef soup makes for a delicious pick-me up after eating all those grilled meats. Choose between the bean paste-laced broth or the spicier version to go with your meal.
Fishcake Hotpot - P399
- A hotpot filled with sticks of odeng, mushrooms and vegetables in a simmering broth. I would have liked this to be spicier but you can actually add some spicy kimchi in and chili paste to suit your tastebuds. Perfect for big groups and families. Plus, it's so Instagrammable that you'd want to take lots of pictures of it!
Enjoy huge goblets of Korean Ades - P249 in different fruity flavors. The ades are sweet and refreshing juice drinks with a fizz. Try their sojus and other alcoholic beverages to pair with your bbq sets.
Nice 2 Meet U makes for a really nice place to meet and eat! The staff are well trained in grilling the meat cuts to perfection and they will be more than willing to assist you in cooking your chosen bbq sets. Prices are quite afforable given the amount of food you can consume with their unlimited banchan and wraps that come with the sets. Value for money is A-ok and "two nice" to pass up! Pardon the pun but enjoy the food!

An Act of Honesty.
Two weeks ago I dined at Nice2MeatU Circuit Makati. After leaving and halfway back home someone called me. It was the restaurant staff, telling me I have left an extra in my bill. They only knew when they made after a certain impromptu accounting. I would have never known about it until i received the call. It took me two weeks to return and the first thing they presented is my extra payment back.
I always say this, honesty is the most important foundation in life. It's the basis of respect and love. It's what makes us able to make lasting relationships with our fellow humans. Thank you to the staff of Nice2MeatU for restoring my faith in humanity 👏😄
Good ambiance with helpful and professional service. I would recommend the outdoor area for a great view of the mall concourse. I recommend to always order 2 servings of their meat entree for full satisfaction.

A spacious place where you can bring someone you want to get to know just make sure their mobile phone is not equipped with Data. Yes, the place does not offer free wifi so you can talk to the person or people you're with. A unique dining experience because as what the owner says, the meat undergone "wet aging" and is cooked under a specific temperature in their cast-iron grill for a specific time at your table. what makes a good Korean restaurant experience? the unlimited/refillable Banchan (sides)!
Beef - P1275 / Pork - P888 Bbq set
Galbisal (USDA Beef short ribs) / Samgyeopsal (pork belly) comes with hotpot (doenjang or gochujang - not spicy or spicy), Banchan, and Wrap me (ssam).
meat is flavorful so you can eat it as is or you can wrap it up with some veggies or just eat it with Banchan (fish cake and kimchi are my favorite). Hotpot is a meal on its own (korean bean paste, tofu, mushroom, veggies and beef soup, and your choice if you want a little kick by getting the spicy one).
Fishcake hotpot - P399
heaven in a bowl for fish cake lovers with mushroom and veggies. hahaha
Seafood ramen - P199
a flavorful bowl with a kick, yes it's spicy but you'll enjoy it. who wouldn't enjoy a bowl of seafood and noodles? 😋
Stir fry Bibim rice - P299
a colorful yet tasty dish. make sure ro mix it up well, so you'll get distinct taste of each ingredient in one spoonful.
Egg n cheese / mac n cheese - P249 each
this is heavy and the taste is just right, not salty.
mom's fried dumpling - P199
nothing really special on the taste but is ok.
Blueberry Ade from Korea - P149
huge serving, a nice pair to your sets to cap off the experience if you are non-alcoholic. i loved the bits at the bottom that brings more flavor.

Nice two Meat U has a great spot over the Circuit as it's the only Korean Restaurant in the area. Located at the 2nd floor with a view overlooking the Globe Circuit Event Grounds, it has the potential to be a good spot whenever there are events at the grounds. The place itself is very spacious and it has several tables located at the outside as well. Their setup, along with the Koreanovela background music really sets the mood for a good meal.
One of the things to note on is they don't have any available WiFi here. This is to practice human interaction within meals. And also to keep the meat cooking at their optimal suggested approach, they prefer their staff to cook for you. This gives you time to talk with the people that you are dining with. Now this is an approach that you surely want to take advantage with. Or if you are a frequent diner, you could cook it by yourself.
Speaking of the cooking process, there are couple of things that makes them different from other Korean restos:
1. They are using 100% cast iron grills that ensures the even cooking of their meat.
2. Their meat undergoes through a wet-aging process that gives their meat more flavor.
And now for the food. Since it's a Korean Resto, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to try out their Pork (800+ php) and Beef (1,225+ php) BBQ Sets. Each set comes with side dishes, and greens for wrapping. You may also choose on what part you want for grilling. Want more meat in your meal, you could order additional meat separately. Not feeling the extra sides, you can order the meat ala carte but minimum of per order is 200g. You have to purchase the wraps as well but it's refillable
Aside from the sets, there are other dishes that you might want to try on. Couple of items you want to try on are the Fish Cake Hot Pot (399 php) and the Egg and Cheese (249 php), both of which you could really enjoy with your meals.
Another thing to note is that most of their drinks are imported from Korea. You might want to try out their Ades as they go well with your meal. If you are not sure in taking one, you can always depend on the regular Coca Cola products. They also have alcoholic drinks here both local and imported. Have a bottle of soju for the complete experience.
It was quite an experience dining here as it may seem unconventional on how they cook their meat here but it all works at the end. Good food, along with good service goes a long way. Looking forward to my next visit here.

One of the most striking restaurants in Circuit Makait Mall is Nice 2 Meet You since you can easily see their logo from the parking lot. Unlike other KBBQ resturants which are usually easy to identify because of the use of hangul or other Korean markers in their logo, Nice 2 Meet You seems more cosmopolitan than traditional. Their space had a clean minimalist aesthetic composed of greys and browns and the open feel might remind you of a certain KDrama that stars Gong Yoo. There are no exhaust pipes dangling from the ceiling as most of the dishes are cooked on a gas stove. Each table is fitted with a button which quickly alerts servers to handle your requests. The space is huge! So you can easily invite a huge entourage or an intimate meal with a few people without having to wait in line.
They attest that the pork and beef that they serve undergo a secret “wet aging” method that brings out more flavour from the meat through allowing it to mature in a controlled environment. They also use 100% cast iron grills to assure that the meat is cooked in only the best cookingware. Even their grilling process had to be precise that they can only grill the meat once the grill hits a certain temperature. They even monitor the cooking time of the meat down to the second to ensure that the meat is cooked through but not overcooked.
You can order their Galbisal (USDA Beef//P499-P399 per plate) and Samgyupsal (Pork//P159) one plate at time or You can get a “Meat set” which comes with a plate of a meat of your choice, unlimited banchan or side dishes, and vegetables(P1275-P828). I suggest going for a meat sets because it includes
unlimited Banchan and Veggies without extra charge as well as a hotpot or a Sizzling Sides.
Galbisal and Samgyupsal: Each plate had several slices of meat (around 100G for ala carte) and a slice of lemon. There was no trace of any seasoning or marinade so the pure flavour of the meat can really shine through. The end result were crisp yet tender slices of meat with a unique flavour that was absolutely fantastic I swear you haven’t had pork or beef in KBBQs that taste quite like this before. The aging process really deepened the flavour of the pork that its almost comparable to beef while remaining
sweet and tender while the beef developed and even beefier taste. You can savor it melt on your mouth
and coat it with meaty juices on its own or dip it in their house sauces. If you get their Wrap Me veggies
you can even try mixing and matching different greens and sauces to create your own SSam or Wrap. I suggest making a Perilla leaf Ssam (the dark green leaves) which have almost minty flavour that gently cuts through the meat!
Siides and Salads: Each Meat Set comes with refillable Banchan or Sides, currently they have 4 things which include Kimchi, Odeng (Fish Cakes) and a few other veggie sides which are really tasty as Ssam fillings or palate cleansers in between bites of meat. The regular salad (P149) was plated beautifully but wasn't really anything spectacular mostly shredded cabbage.
Spicy Seafood Ramyeon (199): Another Korean treat that Kdrama lovers can easily identify is their Ramyeon! A steaming bowl of noodles is super esy easy to prepare yet incredibly delicious and heartwarming. In order to make this a restaurant worth dish they added mussels and prawns which enriched the savory flavors of the broth with an oceanic touch. The result was a simple, delicious and
comforting with a bit of heat just like a good K-Drama.
Egg N Cheese (P249): A delicious but simple appetizer which can be found in almost every KBBQ restaurant are steamed egg casseroles. Scrambled eggs are cooked in an earthen pot and served piping hot and to make it extra special, a layer of white cheese was melted on top creating a nice crust. The outcome is a fluffy and delicate pillow of eggs and cheese which was almost like cake. A fantastic way to get your appetite rollin’ or end a meal with a sweet treat.
Stir Fry BibibmRice (P299): The owner was also nice enough to give us a taste of their own bibimbap. The rice bowl was beautifully arranged in the signature sunburst pattern with the egg yolk in the middle surrounded by other topping which resembled the rays of the sun. Mixing everything together was just as exciting as looking at the presentation because you can see everything come together harmoniously.
The result was a mix of fresh and savory flavors coming from the ground meat, veggies, and Korean
seasonings like soybean paste which coated every single grain of rice. I really liked the mix of flavours and the fact that it doesn’t feel heavy even with so many things added into it. That’s harmony I guess.
Doenjang and Gochuchang Hotpot(P299 each): Another thing that you can get cooked on the spot on their menu are their hotpot soups. Each bowl is filled with a Doenjang or Bean Paste based broth or a Gochuchang or Chilli Paste broth with some slices of beef, tofu, mushrooms, and veggies. The broth itself was light, comforting, and it might seem familiar to Filipino tastes as it tastes like a cross between
nilaga and sinigang. This comparison is even more evident with the Gochuchang hotpot as it is spicier with a hint of sour at the same time having that deep flavoured base from the Doenjang broth. The flavour of their meat and the flavour of the broths came together into one hearty and comforting hotpot dish. If I could choose 1 however, I would go for the Gochuchang because of the heat and the hearty soup seems perfect for the cooler, rainier months.
Beverages: They have an extensive Juice and alcohol menu perfect for a nice, long BBQ sesh. Their signature juices are their “ades” (as in lemonADE) which come in different fruity flavors. I tried the
Peach Ade (P149) which was really peachy and fizzy, the serving is quite huge so you be thirsty for awhile.
Overall Nice 2 Meet U is another Korean Barbecue spot that you shouldn’t miss! Their signature meats are ridiculously delicious while the other things in their menu are composed of authentically Korean dishes that easily appeal to Filipino Tastes. The service was really great as their servers are cheerfuland eager to serve and prepare your food. My only suggestion is that they could expand their side dish options to include other things that might excite their customers and include sides to their ala carte meat orders for those who are on a budget as well as have wifi. There are affordable and expensive items in their menu but they are mostly worth every penny. Their meats alone are worth the visit! China Lara Alexa Retardo Ken Lingling

Nice Two Meat U may be found on the second floor of the Ayala Mall in Circuit Makati. They serve authentic Korean food that caters to the Filipino taste.This newly opened joint boasts of a spacious and well designed interior, and top quality food that wont break the bank.
This restaurant not only serves cooked dishes, but also meats and soups to be cooked table-top. During my visit, we were served the dishes they are most proud of; each one with a wide range of ingredients, distinct flavour, and enjoyment factor. A few of my favourites were:
SEAFOOD RAMEN with shrimps, mussels, and spicy seaweed broth - the noodles were one of the best ramen noodles i've had in a Korean restaurant. The broth lacked depth of flavour; it needed a little bit more spice and seasoning but the entire dish was enjoyable nonetheless.
FISH CAKE HOTPOT - the serving is large and good for sharing. The fish cakes were top quality and the broth was surprisingly savoury and very flavourful compared to the others i've tried.
EGG AND CHEESE - the restaurants version of "steamed egg". The egg is mixed with cheese and cooked in a cast iron skillet. More cheese is put on top to melt. The way they prepare it makes the egg a little heavy and dense, and you can eat this as is or as a side dish.
PORK BBQ and BEEF BBQ SETS - each set comes with a 300g serving of meat, 4 side dishes, and an assortment of lettuce wraps. The pork set will set you back about 888++ and the beef set ranges from 1200++ to 1400++ depending on what cut you choose.
I would definitely come back here for the PORK BBQ SET because they have one of the most tender and well-flavoured samgyupsal i've had in Manila. The owners say that they achieve this through their 'super secret' wet ageing process - they place the pork in bags with herbs and spices and store them for 3-4days at a constant 5 degrees allowing the pork to become tender and absorb the flavour. This process is not only time consuming, but also expensive, and the owners say its well worth it if it produces a better product.
Aside from the savoury courses, Nice Two Meat U also serves great drinks! They have a selection of carbonated fruit coolers with flavours ranging from pineapple to orange, and grapefruit to green apple. I loved the sweet tartness of the GRAPEFRUIT ALE - comes in a large goblet for about 149++.
Overall, i had an enjoyable visit to Nice Two Meat U. The company was fun, food was good, and service was exemplary. Definitely looking forward to my next visit.
Gave this restaurant a try just because I'm craving for some Korean delight. We ordered the Samgyeopsal and Seafood Ramen. This isn't the typical Korean BBQ restaurant wherein you will have the liberty to cook the meat yourself, I was surprised when the crew stayed at our table and cooked the meat herself.
Food-wise, the meat is good. It is tender and delicious. Also, I love that the Seafood Ramen is a bit spicy because it adds excitement to the whole dish: shrimp, squid, mussels and noodles.
Overall, the ambiance is great, really bringing the Korean vibes, the staff is pleasant and accommodating, and the food is great.
Best Korean resto in the PH so far. The staffs are all accomodating and promptly responds to customers. Food servings are good. Side dishes are refillable for free. Good ambiance.
Good food.
Friendly staff.
Affordable prices.
Food servings are to-share. A good place for family meal. They also serve cold lemon water.
Happy tummy!
Cravings satisfied!!! Ordered the bbq set and an additional bibimbap. Banchans and ssam are refillable! Generous servings although a bit pricey. Staffs are helpful and will happily refill your plates. Will definitely go back!
Nice 2 Meat U can give you all that Korean vibes restaurant (duh) as it looks like you are really in for a Korean treat. The food was surprisingly good and the fishcake soup didn't disappoint. You will also get that amount you are looking for in every order. What I dont like is that the menu won't tell you that service charge and vat are excluded it the price. Servers didn't also advice us of this. Also, normally the lettuce wrap and side dishes are already part of the bbq grill set. But not for this, you have to pay for the wraps and side dishes.
