    Those looking for a modernized Korean-Gran Canaria restaurant look no further, BUT NOT AUTHENTIC. Their were no side dishes, not even one, the gyozas instead of the AUTHENTIC soy sauce and vinegar, it had red mojo, the beef in the bulgogi was dry and instead of having rice in a bowl, it was on a plate with green onions. Overall the experience was mediocre, food was ok, but I warn you not authentic.

    Good, basic Korean fare. The bibimbap was a decent portion. Service was friendly and quick. A selection of banchans and Asian beers would be a welcome addition.

    This place is a one man band cooking and serving about 4 to 5 small tables. The menu is simple. There are only 4 items on the menu and in small or large sizes. We came as a couple and ordered small Mandu, small Bibimbap and large Buchujeon and large Dakgangjeong. One beer and one bottle of Soju. The bill came to €44 and we enjoyed everything. Mr. Kim is the Chef, waiter and owner who is very helpful and very hardworking. Call and book early. Be patient and you'll really enjoy this authentic little Korean hidden gem. Bring cash. They don't take card.

    The place is not bad although there are much better real korean restaurants around the Playa de Las Canteras area. The menu is really short. Worth a try though.

    It was nice to taste good Korean food in Las Palmas. We tried several food from the menu and we enjoyed them very much overall. I highly recommend to try Bibimbap and Buchujeon with prawns, they were very delicious. Ssam de Panceta and Bulgogi were on point as well. The meat was very tender and my 4 years old daughter also enjoyed very much. I recommend ordering several food and sharing like Koreans normaly do. The staff were very friendly and checked our table often. If you want to eat Korean food at a young and trendy atmosphere, visit Kim's Pojangmacha.

    Hands down one of the best restaurants in Las Palmas. Just a small place with few tables and with a nice and friendly owner. Only a small selection of dishes but everything was fresh and tasted amazing. Definitely recommended and if I could I would give more than 5 stars.

    Service is fast and efficient and they are nice. The place is cool too. The ingredients though you can see and taste they are not selected and so the food is nothing special. Price quality is not great. It should be around 15 euro per person for the food you get. It is over 20 though

    The beef bulgogi is very delicious. The fried chicken is just fine but a little bit sour for my taste. The rice wasn’t very well cooked. We were just very shy to tell the server because he was very accomodating.

  • 3/5 Thomas S. 7 months ago on Google
    The fact that they don’t have any Korean beer should have been a red flag 😅 but since I got the last table, I wanted to give it a go. The positive: service is well intended and efficient. The negative: No hand soap in restroom, which really makes me hope that the kitchen staff has somewhere else they “do their business” Probably the worst cooked rice I’ve ever experienced - dry, severely undercooked, almost like a pilaf. Very odd rice to serve with Korean food. There is no way any chef tried this rice before serving it… The meat in my Ssam Bulgogi was OK in terms of flavor, but the texture was odd. Almost like ground beef, just drier. Some very large chunks and other very very small, almost ground meat like. The Kimchi (€5,95,- extra 😅) was decent, but a bit too high in acidity, but that’s just my opinion as a fellow kimchi-maker. All in all, a weak 3/5, and in my opinion not worth the calories

    We had bibimbap and bulgogi, was good. The menu could have more options, really missed Naengmyeon

  • 5/5 Diane G. 1 year ago on Google
    The restaurant seems to have been upgraded. They have a few waiters now, the decoration is quite modern and appealing. The menu is more diverse and has additiona. The food is really good! We tried the vegetable dumplings, the Bibimbap, Dakgangjeong, and another plate with sweet potato noodles. All fantastic. We would definitely come back.

    Kim’s deserve a Michelin star. Never have I eaten food cooked with such passion. Korean Food made for the soul, cooked at what feels like someone’s home. Thank you Kim!

  • 1/5 Daniel M. 1 year ago on Google
    Went there on Thursday. The doorshutter was closed. We went there because of the good reviews on google maps. But the restaurant did not open at 20.00. We waited for 20minutes but no sign of opening. There was also no sign of it being closed for the day or any opening times. Google said it would open at 20.00. So a disappointing walk from across the city to get here for nothing.

    Delicious authentic Korean food, wonderful owner in a no frills setting. Not many tables so book ahead or be prepared to wait.

  • 4/5 Gabriel E. 3 years ago on Google
    Great authentic Korean food in a hole-in-the-wall style location. Fair prices and good portions, highly recommended!

  • 5/5 András T. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a brilliant place. It is only open for a few hours because the whole place is run by one person (I assume its Mr Kim). He takes the orders, cooks and serves the food. They have a tiny menu (4 dishes) but everything is super fresh. It is like being invited to a Korean home in Gran Canaria!

  • 5/5 Björn D. 5 years ago on Google
    Just really really great korean food. Great service and very affordable prices. Kim will make what he has, so if you want to eat a particular dish - check with him the day before so that he can buy ingredients. Also, best kimchi I had outside south korea.

    Love this place food is so nice 🤤 1 man job but it’s totally worth it try def coming back

  • 5/5 S.R. W. 2 years ago on Google
    It is a one-man restaurant, and there are only 4 dishes on the menu. The waiting time could be a bit long but all worth the effort. Reservation is highly recommended as it is really a hot spot in the city. Tried the bibimbap and fried chicken wings, both were really great.
