Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Overall, everything was good, but the waitresses could be more welcoming with a smile. Food taste"
"Ordered jajangmyeon and hot roasted barley tea. The jajang was ok, not sure how close it is to the authentic jajang. No meat in the jajang, just potato cubes. Portion looks small but when i finish eating it, i felt quite full. Maybe it was due to the flat noodle, tasted like it's handmade. The meal came with free kimchi as side dish, kimchi was good and most likely made from scratch by the korean owner. We got free soup too, it tasted like miso/seaweed soup. The soup is self-service and free. Barley tea was served hot without sugar. Would love to try their kimbap next time since it's their huge hit based on comments."
"The food is delicious, authentic. Love the kimchi. The seaweed soup is really soothing to eat during the cold weather. The soup dishes comes with rice and side dishes."
"Very nice food & staffs here. Shall come visit again. Went there 6 persons for these food. Cost each of us around rm27 per person."
"Affordable prices and really good food. The kimbap was fresh and filling, and the kimchi jjigae was very nice — rich, comforting, and full of flavor."
"Fresh and tasty kimbap with generous fillings. Good portion, friendly service, and worth the price. Will come back again."
"omgggggg I haven’t had authentic kimbap in so long!! It’s really delicious"
"The Kimbap is known for its kimbap, so the kimbap tastes good. Cannot say for other dishes but as they increase the price (inflation and such), the portion and food quality are not on par with the value for money. It used to be affordable but with its average taste (not bad but not great), the current price makes it less worthy. With an increasing amount of competition in Kuching, the Kimbap is no longer superior as they need to compete with more cafes and restaurants. Kimchi jjigae is flavourful and nice. There is a bit of noodles, kimchi and soft tofu in the soup. The apple juice is just from a box and not cold-pressed or fresh. Tastes sour and refreshing like the one you have in MAS flights. It is nice to clean your palate. Atmosphere is wonderful as they play Kpop music videos to watch and listen. Service was alright, nothing extra or special about it."
