A great value Korean barbecue place. The reason to go here is definitely the quality of the meat, they have prime meat here and it's definitely better than the beef you could get at a lot of places. Their prices are reasonable, you can get a set for 1190 that's enough for 3 or would make 2 really full. The sides are pretty good, and their service is pretty great. All in all, definitely one of the better Korean barbecue places I've been to, criminally underrated. Parking can be a hassle, but it's worth it.

After a long day in the mall, my small group decided to go here as suggested by one of our friends. The staff are very accommodating and they know how to talk to the costumers. When we got it, I was really shocked by how inexpensive the foods were. Even if we didn't pay A LOT (unlike in other korean bbq restaurants , Tong Keun So managed to satisfy our tummies and we even left with smiles on our faces!We ordered set A which consists of rib finger, prime chuck eyeroll and brisket point. Our orders also came with steamed egg, soup and a loooot of side dishes. You can ask for more if you want ; The staff kindly cooked the meat for us and the sizzling of the meat made me more hungry HAHA My favorite here is the sikhye, which they give you after you bill out and the steamed egg! DEFINITELY WORTH IT!

In our many months of writing down reviews here in the Team Glasses Food Blog, we finally had a chance to eat at a Korean restaurant. And all of this due to a last minute change of plans when my dad arrived from Davao, a day before his birthday. To celebrate, we ended up at Remedios Circle in Malate and picked a place called Tong Keun So. For the frugal person my dad is, the signage displaying the PHP 990 for the Tong Keun So Hanmari (which consisted of rib finger, prime chuck eye roll, and brisket point) was enough to seal the deal.

My FAVORITE Korean restaurant!!! Been to this place more than 10 times already and it doesn't change the place is huge, the food is delicious and the people are such a delight to see. Food 10/10 for the 990php price for the Set A it's really affordable. 500g of pure beef goodness! Plus they give you unlimited sides too, my absolute fave is their egg bomb. Service 9/10 the manager knows how to train his staff. When they opened 60% of the staff still work here until now. Ambiance 10/10 super comfy couches and you can choose to stay in the authentic Korean dining table they have. I personally do not like eating doing the Indian sit but they have that option! This restaurant is super underrated! I recommend you to go here and try the beef sets and I promise you'll go back to this place like me!!!
