Been back twice to this place in the last month.
What I liked:
1. Good location along the exit to the Victoria street car park which has affordable weekend parking rates
2. Good variety in their menu.
3. Prices are reasonable when you look at the portion sizes which are generous and great for sharing. Some of the dishes like the popcorn chicken also offer an add on beer option.
Must tries:
Dumbu tofu which is slices of firm tofu served with pork stir fried with kimchi in the traditional semi spicy red sauce. Very yummy . Also their corn and cheese hot plate which makes a good starter and their popcorn chicken which was crispy and just the right bite size. Woulld love to try the army stew on my next visit!
Will definitely be back!
Out of the many Korean restaurants in the cbd, this might be my favourite. My favourite dishes here are the spicy beef soup (lunch only) and the spicy chicken wing. Also order their seaweed rice thing to have some fun making rice balls with your friends. Spice levels are adjustable so don't be afraid. Service is also great, you won't be disappointed.
Got the o dol ppeo 오돌뼈, which is spicy chicken cartilage. Highly recommend to anyone that hasn’t tried! It is quite spicy even on the least spicy option so if you enjoy spicy things this is the menu for u!
They have some really nice Tteokbokki - a popular Korean spicy streetfood with rice cake, fish cake, a variety of seafood and heaps of melted cheese on top. Many Korean restaurants in Auckland have have this in their menu and I think this place makes the best one! I also really like the OddolBbyeo - spicy stir-fried chicken cartilage with vegetables. All these spicy dishes can be a lot more enjoyable if you add seaweed rice balls, as it will neutralise the spiciness and make it extra filling.
Came in yesterday night with friends after design hand in. Tried the budae-jjigae ($40) with the extra glass noodles. Glass noodles were only $3 but they gave an extra large portion inside the pot. Tasted extra good when it was cooked with the spicy soup, sausages and luncheon meat. Loved the whole feeling of sharing a large korean hot pot with friends after an exhausting day of design. They also had free maxim coffee and tea packets by the water, which was a bonus :))))
Korean restaurants most of the times is synonymous to table top indoor barbecue where you will be offered with all sorts of raw meats and it’s all up to you to cook your own meals by grilling them in front of your dining table. It is very seldom to see Korean restaurants that offer a different kind of dish like this restaurant that we recently tried in Auckland CBD’s High Street.
Best rice cake I’ve ever eaten. We got medium spicy but even that was a bit much for us but still nice. They give lots of seafood and other toppings :) we also brought the jumukbap that too is cheap and we made about 10 medium sized rice balls. The cold noodle was also the best I’ve tasted the broth was nice and refreshing.
Always go for their boneless chicken feet and hot pot but this time we decided to try something else. Had chicken curry katsu, chicken deopbap and steak egg. All of them were nice especially the chicken deopbap and the female staff there was really lovely, friendly and welcoming. Good spot for both lunch and dinner.
Had the Budae jjigae pot, ordered mild which wasn’t spicy at all. Very flavoursome soup base. However there were only a few rice cakes. Portion is a little small, suitable for up to 2 people.
Tried the sashimi don and the pan fried noodles with rice. Both were delicious and the portions were generous. We later tried the steamed egg - a must try!!
A Korean restaurant that the youngster likes to go and popular with Koreans as well. The food is great like the seafood pancake and Budae Jjigaeand. Selections here are a bit different to your usual Korean restaurant. You can even get chicken feet! If you get the seaweed rice, you will be given a glove which one person is in charge of making rice balls for the tables 🤣. Service is very good and the food order is out fast. Definitely highly recommended!
Bulgogi lunch special was tasty. The ingredients were fresh. If you add some chili sauce, the taste would be even better.
Lovely food, atmosphere and staff. Came here late Saturday night for some food and drinks with my friend and found everything to my liking. Staff was kind enough to put up with my constant song requests (sorry 😅) definitely recommend chicken feet and the crispy chicken and chips. Tastes especially good with 고구마 막걸리 Will definitely come back again.
Service was fine, food were tasty and reasonably priced. Dubu kim chi was really yummy!

Mouthwatering dishes!!! Very good service! Will definitely come back! Highly recommend ❤️
We enjoyed our meals here. Delicious Korean food. Recommend o try salmon salad and their hot pot. Helpful staff. Store is a bit small. There is a toilet which is well maintained.
All staff there is super friendly and polite. The chef seemed to have forgotten to add glass noodles to our soup, probably due to being swamped during dinner service. However, the staff swiftly addressed the issue, offering us two fruit milks as a gesture of apology. We truly appreciate your kindness and assistance. The food is always delicious, and love their hot pots and soups.
Food was good. I always thought Korean food is bbq, but this restaurant serve very special and different Korean food. I love the hot pot. Hope to see more variety as we have friend do not eat beef
The restaurant happened to catch my eye. My group and I came back for dinner and sat outside. I enjoyed watching the K-Pop music videos. The service was really good, food was reasonably priced - and it came out surprisingly fast!
Good Recommend. I think management or chef changed. We ordered cheese buldak and mulnaegmyun(cold noodle). Food taste amaging. Sizzling plate with spring onion, seasoned chicken and melted cheese was very good combination. Lady Who servef our table was very kind. We used to order bulgopmak from this Place. I cant wait to order this one.
