    A Korean Restaurant in front of Robinson's Manila in Adriatico Street. Although signage is posted they are 24 hours open but in actuality, they are only open for lunch and dinner. There is an adequate safe distance between tables and the place looks clean when we arrived just in time for their lunch opening. The menu is not big, mostly beef and pork for bbq but I guess reasonably priced. My companion ordered for Woo Samgeop but was informed that minimum order is 2. Since I am lacto-vegetarian, all I was able to order and munch on was the Mul Naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles in miso with pickled cabbage and cucumber), steamed egg (which came with the Woo Samgyeop; PHP 100 if ordered as a la carte), and side dishes (kimchi, pickled radish, sweet potato). No dessert. For payment, they only accept cash and GCash. Add: next to the restaurant is another outlet that offers unlimited bbq and on the second floor is a Korean cafe.

    Not a lot of people go here probably because it's not an unlimited KBBQ place but I think its a plus because there are no queues. Try their LA galbi. Everything comes with free unlimited side dishes. The only thing I'd really complain about is their soju price (P270... around $5) per bottle. There's an Assi store right beside it that sells the same bottle for half the price but they have corkage so it'll be the same. For 2, budget of 700-1000 would suffice which is the same, or even less than what you'd pay unlimited KBBQ restaurants.

    Makchang With the restaurant name as our guide, we just had to try their Makchang. It is exotic since this meat part is rectum, which was mostly chewy, then crunchy outside from the grilling. We liked it enough to have a second round so if you're adventurous, I'd recommend this. Beef Galbi Among the meats we ordered, this is my favorite for its softness and sweetness. This ran out pretty fast! Samgyeopsal It's our all-time favorite everytime we go for Korean grills. Theirs was memorable for being crunchy, similar to chicharon or fried pork skins but cut very thin. Service It was pretty good but a bit of extra effort was needed to call servers' attention. There were times where everyone was in the kitchen or elsewhere. Ambience They have many tables. Place looks more casual than classy and it's pretty cozy. Upon entry, you'll smell barbecue. Upon leaving, you'll definitely smell like barbecue!

    We went to the all you can eat side to the right. It was 599php per person. You first select 2 meats from 6. Eat those you can have more. No extra charge. In the muffle of the restaurant are the Kim Chi and other vegetables and sauces. We tried the pork the spicy beef, the beef and pork bugogi. Everything was very tasty and we had plenty to eat. We are already planning to go Navi before we leave Manila.

    They have limited side dishes but it's one of the few places that serves pamuchin (spring onion salad). It goes really well with your grilled meat.

    (Translated by Google) Anyway cheap. The amount of the first overhang that comes out of the Korean restaurant promise is not odd. A level that fills your stomach. Meat level is not high. The water comes out and sticks out, so it's a good choice if you want cheaper rice. (Original) とにかく安い。韓国料理屋お約束で出てくる最初の突き出しの量が半端ない。それたけでお腹がいっぱいになるレベル。お肉のレベルは高くはない。 お水も突き出しと出てくるので、ご飯を安く済ませたい時にはよいチョイスだと思う。

    Food is good. Must try the mak chang (pork intestines) grill it til toasted, so that it'll be crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside. Place is just a bit hot with the grilling and customer service isn't the best. Side dishes were also limited.

    There are many side dishes, the barbecue is affordable and delicious, and there is unlimited supply of lettuce. This is a must-try restaurant in the Philippines.

    The standard for meat-order Korean grill, if you’re done with the unli-samgyup. You can request for other side dishes i.e. steamed egg; chillis, among others. The waiters are there to help you cook the meats or they/you could cook it them/your-selves. Meals/sojus are cheaper than other k-restos. If it’s late you can go to their branch near Remedios circle. Guards are helpful on the parking with about ten street-parking slots beside Rob.

    The part I like about this Korean bbq is that their grill cooks quite fast, unlike other that I've tried before, you're already drooling over the smell of beef over the grill and it takes forever to cook. The sides are also set in a buffet style so you don't have to keep on asking the staff for more. Will definitely go back.

  • 4/5 Joel M. 2 years ago on Google
    This is an all time korean barbecue buffet restaurant! It even start way way back before samgyupsal craze here in the Philippines 🇵🇭. Although thy limit the greens/leaves to only lettuce but before there are 3 varieties ☹🥺

    (Translated by Google) I don't really understand why it's 4.1 stars here. Reviews have also hired Alba. It's really messy inside. I sat at the table, but Anshun was still preserved with Kimchi soup and red pepper powder on the side dishes. The dishes do not seem to have been washed properly. The meat was frozen, but the frozen meat came out so it was tasteless and the quantity was small. There was a Filipino sitting next to the table, and the table was grilled with meat. Cleanliness, quantity and quality of food, service ... all are bread shops. Never go, it's the worst. (Original) 여기 왜 별점이 4.1이나 하는지 정말 이해가 안됨. 리뷰 알바 고용했는지도. 안에 들어가면 정말 지저분함. 테이블에 앉았는데 안딲은 김치국물 그대로 묻어있고, 반찬으로 나온 고구마에 고춧가루가 묻어 있음. 그릇도 설거지 제대로 안한것 처럼 보임. 고기 시켰는데 냉동된고기가 나와서 맛도 없었고 양도 적었음. 옆 테이블 필리핀사람 한명 앉았는데 그 태이블은 고기 구워주고, 우리 테이블 두명인데 우리가 직접 고기 구움. 청결상태, 음식의 양과 질, 서비스...모두 빵점임. 절대 가지 마세요, 최악입니다.

    If it's the meats you're after, you can try this one. If it's the sides, try Hwang So Ga (the unli samgyup nearby).

  • 5/5 Hanz S. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Emilene D. 4 years ago on Google
    The very one place that introduced me to Samgyup and I really love this place. First, as I am an owl person, it’s 24hrs so you can go here anytime! The staff are always bery accommodating, they can even cook your order for you. The place is spacious and really clean. The most important part, food is absolutely amazing! Not unlimited like the others but a sure quality and worth the money.

  • 5/5 Glenn C. 1 year ago on Google
    The ingredients were amazing. We both felt like we should have gotten one of our own because by the time we were finishing the last bites of our half, we were wishing there was more. The ingredients were fresh and the vegetables and meats were prepared properly and the grilling pan are clean to perfection.

  • 4/5 marv e. 5 years ago on Google
    Located just outside of Robinsons Mall and the Adriatico Residences, this is conveniently placed with Hwang So and Cafe Esso for a complete Korean experience. Food is always good here having tried it many times. There are several meat options from marinated to the simple. However, I ate here today and found out that the sidings are no longer unlimited. That's sad :(

  • 4/5 Robert M. 4 years ago on Google
    Very good Korean BBQ with authentic dishes and atmosphere. Service is good and price reasonable. They use charcoal which makes the BBQ much better. It's a bit smelly when you first walk in.

  • 3/5 Maria Lyra Ruth C. 3 years ago on Google
    Place is big enough and spacious enough to cater to several groups. Pros Not crowded. You will not need to wait in line. And they have parking area in the curb side although not big enough if customers will come in all at once. Guard and crew are accommodating Food taste okay to good. Nothing special but it is filling. They put lots of meat in their jjigae or beef stew. Comes with unlimited side dishes Cons Not eat all you can serving unlike the usual samgyupsal place Selection of food is also limited A bit expensive compare to others Choice of side dishes is also limited. kimchi, radish kimchi and green kimchi plus steamed egg although this taste good Cr needs a lot of improvement. P.S. they do not accept credit since pandemic happen.

  • 4/5 Nico Samneil S. 3 years ago on Google
    Good meat and most importantly on any samgyup is that they have friendly, quick and good initiative servers. from the security down to crew. Good job. they follow health protocols here too.
