    Been here a few times and all have been good experiences. Serving time is reasonable, sometimes there are delays but it comes with the volume of people coming to this place.

    Food is good, nothing fancy, just honest, hot and heart warming korean dishes served fresh.

    The place is neat and tidy, well kept. Area is still new, commercial spaces are still empty. so expect quite good parking.

    Did i mention they have random free dish(es)?

    My most favorite Korean restaurant. You can say I have tried all their menu and all perfect. Why la island branch closed ?. Now I have to cross the sea to eat this.

    Food meets standard. Clean + spacious environment. Easy find parking.

    Just that the restaurant seemed understaff. Very understaffed. So might missed out customer’s order. Especially during peak hour. Make sure you follow up your order with the staff regularly if it takes too long.

    Looking forward for the service improvements.

    The environment is clean and comfortable, and it’s easy to find the parking slot. The food is delicious, must try their kimchi hotpot, bbq chicken and the pan fried bulgogi. Their service is good as well,especially the manager was very friendly . Highly recommended.

    1. Overall experience is good for lunch.
      Food serve in short time. Portion of the fried pork a bit less but at the price of RM14.90 still acceptable.

      Environment good but there are flies in the restaurant. Hope this can be improved.

    2. Waited for around 30 mins for the pancake to be served. Look at the photo, I’m not sure am I eating pancake or drinking oil? Checked with the waiter and he answered, yes this is the way they cooked ?. Very disappointed with the food and the service, especially the attitude of the waiter. WILL DEFINATELT NOT VISIT AGAIN, for those who are planning to come, just don’t waste your money and time.

    3. Visited on 03-August-2023
      Worth to try it!
      Always full house
      Make sure do reservation before heading there
      New update: Iconic point now need to pay for parking before entrance. Ready with touchngo (minimum RM20)

    4. Price considered cheap, but need to improve in food, services (all foreigner), cleanliness & drinks!!! Cultery was dirty, side dish was prepare too advance then caused watery.

    5. Highly not recommended!!
      Very dissatisfied with the service and order fulfillment. The foreign staff didn’t understand the language. They couldn’t understand my questions in Chinese, English or Malay. It was a very unpleasant experience and very frustrating.

      1. I had questions about the buffet set and asked the staff, but they were completely unable to understand and answer my simple questions, no matter in English/Chinese/Malay, because they communicated with me in Chinese first, I thought they could I understand, I didn’t expect it to be so hard to communicate.
      2. Some drinks on the paper menu do not appear on the electronic menu. After communicating with them, I can place an order directly with them. After confirming many times, I waited for a long time until I almost finished eating, the drinks still not even delivered.
      3. That’s okay with the above late deliver or they missed out my order! The other point is I’ve been reminded more than 5 times that I need two cold and one hot drinks, but it either didn’t come or all came in cold.
      4. I ordered 3 lunch sets with free side dishes, but I only got 1 set of free side dish.
      5. Until it was time for them to place the final order, they asked us if we wanted to order any other food? But the other food we originally ordered hasn’t been served yet. I wasn’t sure if they were being negligent or if they thought I didn’t order, so they took my order list and asked me and they said all were served.
      6. In the end very lucky, there was a Chinese waitress who explained to us that they didn’t order drinks for us and the foods I ordered was wrongly sent to other tables.

      At least it lets me know how outrageous the service in this restaurant is!
      No next time!!!!!!!!!
