Been here twice and tbh I would come back a third time!
Quality of buffet items is consistent, perfect meat, quiet (no annoying kpop music playing!) cold a/c, clean bathrooms (with bidets!) and staff are intuitive and prompt to replace our water jugs or ask if we need more meat. Oh, and other than the usual greens, they also serve Perilla leaves!!!
We've eaten here on weekday evenings on both occasions and there's hardly any lines. Other diners quietly enjoy their dinners like us.
I'd pick this place over all those other overhyped, overcrowded kbbq place. 500php and you get a myriad of buffet items at malinis pa CR. Sulit!
One of our favorite samgyupsal places.
--== AMBIANCE ==--
Thr restaurant looks like a well-maintained local eatery. It's simple, nothing fancy like other restaurants. Simple doesn't mean bad in this case. It actually makes the restaurant feel more homey.
--== SERVICE ==--
It's self-service but they still do provide service when you need it.
--== FOOD QUALITY ==--
And this is the reason why we love it here. The food is really good. Now it's not amazing but it's much better than what you're paying for.
Aside from the Korean BBQ, you also have a small selection of buffet and desert. You get more here for a fraction of the price you'd pay for at other samgyupsal restaurants.
What also works is the self-service system. Since you don't need the wait staff, you get things much faster. At other restaurants, you lose your dining cadence because of poor service which ruins the experience. Not here though.
Overall, we recommend going. It has improved since the last time we were here and we're happy with it.
Authenticity at its finest, one of the first samgyupsal place before all the hype.
This place has unlimited ban chan in the form of a buffet table right in the middle, you even have noodles soups and bibimbap. They serve great cuts of pork and beef and their marinated version as well. They even have fruits and other desert items.
Definitely one of the better samgyupsal places out there.
Superb selection and quality for only 499! 5 types of meat (plain beef, Beef bulgogi, plain pork belly, pork bulgogi and spicy pork) spicy pork was the best for me! Apart from the bbq you get a wide variety of cooked food kimchi and other pickled spicy veggies and lots more. Definitely a favourite spot
We've been there last March and the food was great. I'm such an introvert person that's why I like it coz it is self service buffet and you don't have to call the crew for refill except for the meat LOL
I am always after the authentic taste of Korean dishes and this restaurant delivered well. Aside from that, they have huge selections for their buffet side dishes and you can customize your own bibimbap. Their staffs were all nice and they even served us calamansi for our soju. Good job!
Treated my sister's here for them to taste what's korean buffet's like and they didn't disappoint me. We'll difinitely coming back again.
Good points:
1. Big servings.
2. Varieties of side dishes.
3.Good service.
Not so good:
1. Place a little bit crowded.
The concept of buffet side dishes is awesome but they lack those sides that you typically seen on other korean buffet like steamed eggs.
Suggestion:
Additional of authentic korean side dishes.
Staff were really friendly and very accomodating, the food from the buffet table were good and their meat were of good quality too! Really nice and clean place. Definitely one of the best korean restos. Worth every cent you pay!
I've tried a lot of K-BBQ places within metro manila but this one's so far is the most sulit considering the food quality and service. Tables don't have exhaust so expect to be sweaty while grilling.
We went to this place for my aunt's birtbday dinner and we went out happy and full. The service is good. The staffs are mindful to your requests and they deliver in a satisfying manner. The food is really good. From their kimchi rice, korean spicy chicken, bimbap to other side dishes. The thing is they only have 2 kinds of meat but their buffet spread will make up for it. Overall, it's a nice dining experience.
