Insadong Waterfront Korean Restuarant

Cute restaurant with panda plushies and totoro figurines everywhere. Good value for money, this restaurant is not high end but definitely delivers. It's a gas BBQ but still has 2 lumps of ?coal in it. The food cooks very quickly and it would have been better if they showed us how to regulate the temperature. Although there are no exhaust fans, the area is well ventilated and in fact, less smoky than other coal places. Eg. Hangari) Prawn entree could have been cooked a bit more. BBQ meats are not marinated. The pork jowl and belly were fatty and full of flavour goes really well with fermented sides and the onions in vinegar to cut through the fat. Beef ribs had great flavour. Ox tongue frozen just so so. Generous serves. Spicy KFC not for the faint hearted and you have been warned. Good service, but the wait staff need more finesse. For example, our wooden boards were all cleared as soon as we placed all the meat on the BBQ. But this left us without somewhere to rest the meat on after cooking, or to stop it from overcooking or burning on the BBQ. Usually in most Korean restaurants, the wooden board is left behind. Then some waiter comes over to cut the meat with the controlled aggression of a serial killer. This is how you know this is not an authentic Korean place there's no one to attack the meat with scissors here. Interesting playlist, it's rap/trap with the occasional Nepalese song thrown in.

The beef was great but the pork was a little fatty for my liking this was the pork and beef set. The KFC was exceptional and the soju was tasty

Awesome dishes with fantastic cooking quality meat; staffs are friendly. We enjoyed so much. Highly recommended!!

Great place! Highly rate the kimchi pancakes, fried chicken and the BBQ. Some pork had a little too much fat but otherwise good. Only real let down is the parking situation.
