Second time here and it was still awesome 🙂
(My first time was actually so many years ago 😅)
But I recommended to my family to come here for my partners birthday and everyone enjoyed the food.
The service was very attentive and patient with our large group 🙂 also very helpful when picking out extra choices from the menu 😄
The stews are my favourite for a winter fix 😍 lots of spice, flavour and portions are decent.
And the KBBQ is a great larger crowd pleaser.
Also the peach soju is delightful 😍👌🏽
Definitely coming back to make my way through the menu 😁❤️
Thank you!

The authentic and delicious Korean restaurant in Wellington. Although food is served slowly, but the quality is guaranteed. And the Kimchi fried rice here is the best I’ve eaten so far, and they are friendly to help me change the corn cheese to mushroom because it is a little bit too sweet for me. And they are the first restaurant serving Korean Zzang Jang Mian, I’ve never been to Korea, but I know the black bean sauce noodles is popular.

Food was very lovely, friendly staff, good service and very reasonable price for the quality and the amount you get. The only problem I had was that the place was a bit cold but I still had a very good experience. Highly recommended!

Very friendly staff. The manager gave me a discount on karaoke and a free Korean beer on my birthday. Love the upstairs karaoke.
Soju(Korean rice wine) is very good there and comes flavoured. Nice sipped or as a shot.
The food is really good. Korean style BBQ meals, spicy dishes, great sides and every pair of meals comes with a free side dish of Kimchi and other light sides. Most dishes are served on a hot plate or bowl and are still sizzling when they get to the table. Really hot and tasty food.
Highly recommended.

I got a voucher for Korean BBQ. The lady at the restaurant spoke minimum English however she was such a lovely lady and there was no problem to communicate. The BBQ was fun to cook by yourself with a hot pan and taste good. Homemade Kimuchi and other side dishes were tasty. We definitely  will go back.

Excellent drink. Great show. Very nice. Perfect.
When I was a young boy. I discovered my father's stash of whiskey. I broke into it using my brothers skateboard. Neither were very happy. That was not a good night. But it forever inspeired my love of Korean folk. 10/да would bang. Peace.

Went here for dinner. My partner and I were very impressed with the food. She reckons the kimchi stew (her favourite dish) is the best she's had in Wellington. Bibimbap and pancake also very nice. Good service

Whenever me and the boys go out to eat we always hit up New Kor. The atmosphere is chill and we always feel welcome and comfortable when we visit, we also get the same table too which makes the experience feel intimate. The service is great and the employees are very kind, the food is good for the price with a decent selection of beers and soju. Its not a 5-star restaurant but the vibe is what makes it very enjoyable and relaxing.

저는 이 식당은 너무 좋아해요! This restaurant is so good. Me and my friends try to come here at least once every month. The staff here are lovely people, we are always greeted with a warm welcome and they always make sure we're okay. The food here is amazing. 10/10 would recommend coming here whenever you can!

I've had the Little Devil fried chicken wings, and I enjoyed them! There is plenty of the sauce to coat the wings, and it's definitely spicy! I've tried the garlic and parmesan fried chicken, and I really liked that flavour, probably my favourite out of the options. The Cajun and honey mustard sauce wings were ok. It would have been nice to have more than a quick drizzle of the honey mustard sauce, but other than that, I do like the flavour combo of cajun and honey mustard. I enjoyed the kimchi dumplings. Nice and crispy and crunchy. The filling was tasty! They're really good when dipped in the sauce for the Tteokbokki! I've tried the pork dumplings, which were also crispy (panfried), and they also taste good with the tteokbokki sauce. I've tried the spicy pork on rice, and the flavours were great. I think the spice level was more on the milder side, but you can definitely still tell that there is spice present. I will say that the prices are on the higher side, considering the portion size/how much you get. However, the food tastes good, and I would recommend you come in and decide for yourself.

Went here back in June, the food was very delicious, great atmosphere and the staff was super friendly and helpful, this is definitely one of the best korean restaurants in Wellington. My favourite dishes that had was the kimchi dumplings, tofu stew and beef ribs, their chicken was also really good full of flavour and very crunchy.

great for a group of people, we all shared some fried chicken which was crispy and tasty. also got individual meals which were the tteokbokki and chicken noodle soup. looooove the tteokbokki, not too spicy and the tteok (rice cakes) is soft and chewy. put some of that tteokbokki sauce in the noodles and its extra yom

Nice food, nice ambience. Japche is a must try for starter because the taste is very solid. In the other hand, my spicy bbq is not really attractive at all, quite salty and lack of the bbq flavour that I love. And if anyone is a fan of fry chicken then please don't even hesitate for once. It is absolutely stunning from the taste of the sauce and the chicken is so so crispy. Coming back is a yes.

Great place for a group to have some very nice Korean BBQ. Good sized venue with plenty of large tables for bigger groups and this is the best way to enjoy Korean BBQ. Lots of options, meat and vege which you cook on the gas BBQs in the middle of the table. Make sure you try the lettuce to wrap you choice of meat with the bean paste, delicious. Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. Kimchi pancake is a must try too. 😉👍

Got the bulgogi. $60 and it was enough for 3 people. It was also on par or even better than most of the bulgogi I had when I lived in South Korea. My only criticism would be that it is lacking in the variety and amount of complimentary ingredients. The kimchi was also my favourite kind. Lots of red and a fair amount of spice. The soju is export soju, which sadly means it is packed with sugar. A bit sickly and not worth the $21 price tag. The staff were fine. Not the friendliest, but certainly not rude or anything.
