Also side dishes and meat take too long to be replenished like they want the less liked side dishes to be eaten first even though its cold and doesnt taste nice.

    What good about this Korean Unli bbq is that the sides are also good. First time to try the bulgogi sauce in a KBBQ. Since people come and go, that's why floors and some parts are a little bit messy.

    Very disappointing. Not as accomodating as before. Also side dishes and meat take too long to be replenished like they want the less liked side dishes to be eaten first even though its cold and doesnt taste nice. Server even told us that it takes that long to replenish because there were many customers when in fact there were only four tables occupied. Tables are also sticky. General rating might have been for the Hodori before at the old Olympian Building and when it was a full floor but not now. Ambiance doesnt make it feel like a restaurant but more of a karinderia and some karinderias have better ambiance and service. Same goes for their Bonifacio branch. Just transferred at ChilCheon Gak Legarda which before has this kind of review but now deserves the better rating.

    Very affordable food. The food that you'll cook tasted fresh and the ones they prepare for you tastes good too. They have buffet and ala carte orders. Toilet needs improvement tho.

    There were alot of side dishes to choose from. Wide selection of meat and seafood. 350 pesos per pax is a good price. But they lack points when it comes to ventilation and the attentiveness of their staff is quite annoying.

    Slow refill and there aren't much food to choose from for an unlimited dining within the time I was there. The wasabi wasn't tasting like wasabi at all. The kimchi I had was too salty too. I have been dining in the same restaurant, but it's the first time I had to experience this.

    Affordable buffet here in Baguio City.The side dishes really taste good. Choices of meats are wide. Authentic taste of korean food.

  • 5/5 Jiří B. 5 months ago on Google • 69 reviews
    I have been there many times and my impression is always very positive. The food is good, it's very peaceful-it's not crowded place and also the food is good. Even though the kimchi-chigae is bit different than any other I have tried before, it's tasteful and also a big portion of meal. The service is very kind and whether I come again to Baguio, definitely will come again.

    If you are samgupsal lover you must try this one. It is not just samgyupsal (pork and beef) but has japchae, gimbap, chicken (they offer two flavored chicken), and tempura. Their kimchi is not that spicy but youll definitely enjoy it.

  • 5/5 Ruby O. 5 years ago on Google
    Buffet ❤ You can enjoy variety of food here. From chicken, beef, pork, seafood and vegetables. You can really eat all you can here. The side dishes are really delicious.

    This establishment is not affiliated with Hodori Korean Restaurant (now located at Bonifacio Street, in front of SLU Baguio). I confirmed this by messaging the original Hodori, whose staff mentioned that the one in Mabini is using their name to attract customers who used to go there years ago. That explains the huge difference in their service and food quality. These are my observations: 1. Moldy walls and ceilings (yes it's rainy season, but they're operating a restaurant for goodness' sake, HYGIENE!) 2. Slippery floor 3. Salty, over-fermented kimchi. Who knows why it's already over-fermented 🥴 4. Other side dishes don't look appetizing at all, so we didn't try them. 5. Availed of their 350 unli buffet but it took them a long time to serve the beef, tempura, and California maki. 6. You would expect shrimp for a tempura but they served crab sticks covered in tasteless tempura batter instead. Not worth the wait! 7. We left and not waited for the California maki anymore, because even the lady customer who was there before us was not yet served her California maki. 8. They served Romaine lettuce which I personally don't like, no other options 😞 9. The customers' disappointed looks on their faces upon entering the establishment and tasting the food there 🤣 LOL. We should have all backed out when we saw the ambience. I pity the students who came after us, imagine wasting your allowance on this restaurant. In short, sayang pera.

    Tasteless kimchi, slow service, fatty meats, boring atmosphere. Definitely far from the quality they had years ago when I first visited. Not recommended.

  • 3/5 Berlyn Joy B. 4 months ago on Google • 1 review
    Lack of ventelation. That's why the atmosphere is hot and smokey. Lack of service, food? Gimbap/Kimbap has more rice than the filling. Plus one to the meat. Overall 5/10.

👍👍 Ate here everyday that we were in Baguio because we love the home-cooked style. Plus the price is definitely a great selling point Highly recommend their chicken (tastes good even without any sauce) and their cinnamon twists (100 times better than Starbucks' cinnamon roll). The only thing I didn't...

👍👍 Famous for their Cream Puffs, but was not available. We had Sinigang which was really good and their buttered chicken which was okay. Service was amazing, there was a 'bot' serving the food and the service crew are always available to help. Great way to start your Baguio vacation

👍👍 A wonderful family restaurant to be in Baguio. About a 15-minute drive from the city center, Lemon and Olives specializes in Greek cuisine. Due to its popularity, waiting in line is common.

🫤 What would have been a pleasant family gathering to celebrate my niece's recognition ceremony turned sour at Grumpy Joe. Their waiting staff aren't nice or accommodating. They're all a bit stand-offish, it's like they resent you for being there and hope that if they just ignore you, you'll go away....
