Bo Drake - City of London,Westminster

These days, London is truly at the culinary crossroads of the world. So much so that some of the Boozybunch have almost eaten our way through the alphabet in the alphabet dining club where we started in a restaurant serving food from a country starting with the letter A, then B, C, D, etc. So perhaps, London does need a Korean/Mexican BBQ restaurant. The brainchild of a colourful pair of chefs, I think they and the media have settled on the term Korexican to describe their food at Bo Drake. By the way, Bo Drake is not related to Bo London

For Muslim diners the search for a halal Korean restaurant was always a relatiw reckless task. as such it would be very easy to recommend bo drake on this basis alone, but that would be nothing short of a great injustice. the truth is that bo drake is a pretty good restaurant in its own right, and the bold and lively aromes that are to be found in their food are all as seductive as their unique fusion menu. admitted, the menu is currently a little limited for Muslim diner, and there is still much room for improvement, but that does not change the fact that they bring something completely different. actually, how the tired old cultural conflict of east vs. west projects...read more

Great place to experience some beautiful Korean fusion small plates. we didn't try anything from the netzen, but they sounded fantastic. we got a good rehearsal of the small plates.

I highly recommend to book as this place is busy quickly!

I loved going to Bo Drake for a refreshing take on Asian fusion cuisine. Bó Drake combines everything I love about Asian food, from the sweetness of the pickled kimchi to the succulent seafood, with the rustic smoky flavor of European barbeque. Before I even talk about the food we enjoyed, I have to mention the quality of the service. From the moment my friend and I entered the restaurant, we were greeted with smiling, friendly faces.

Korean fusion and a little more, Bo Drake is a nice establishment in central Soho. Walk ins accepted, it has an eclectic mix of food. We started off with cocktails as they do have a nice selection, and sampled the variety of dishes, tapas style. I rated the japche and baos which were delicious. It's a great venue, and the food is decent, however in my opinion a little too dear in comparison to the level of dishes served.
