    (Edited) BEWARE! WHEN PAYING USING YOUR CREDIT CARD. Our dine was paid using my friend’s credit card. He handed it over to one of the employees. Then hours later after our dinner, there were unauthorized charges on his card. To the owner - I haven’t told you the date and time we dined in. How are you able to review and rewind which video? Please take necessary actions on this one. This could happen to your future customers. Watch whoever in charge of the counter.

    One of the best Korean restaurants I've ever been to! We scored a lot for less than 2k. Food was quite cheap and the quality wasn't compromised. It' really delicious. They have lots of side dishes to offer too.

    Me and my workmates dined at Premier The Samgyupsal The Rise Assembly Grounds and were disappointed. Kudos to the server, as she is welcoming and accommodating. However, the food failed to enhance the experience. We ate at different Premier Samgyupsal branches, but this is the worst since the rice cake has an insect (a cockroach) in it. In addition, the server is the only one who apologized. When we saw it, the server took action and immediately checked with the kitchen; however, the other staff there didn't do anything. Then I only watched Ate check the whole rice cake. The saddest part is that they didn't even care how the other customers there would feel since the whole rice cake was a mess. Instead of getting angry, we stayed silent for the other customers and for the staff to take action, but nothing happened. I hope this will be a reminder that you need to double-check what you serve your customers. It is very disappointing, and we all lose our appetite and leave the branch without saying a word.

    Prices are held at pre-pandemic rate. Meat are of great quality. Relatively good service. Room temperature is comfortable.

    Their meat and steamed egg were delicious, but with other side dishes I'm not satisfied. There were a lot of people when we went so the service was a bit slow. We were no longer asked for vaccination card. My suggestion is to go early because when we went there there's a waiting list.

    Went as a group of 6 on a Monday night. There wasn’t a lot of people but it took about 15mins for our coal to be lit. Sidedishes weren’t served despite many follow-ups. Almost an hour after being sat, we were then informed that they ran out of beef. Talked to the manager and asked if we could just leaveβ€”to which he agreed. For 600 pesos, I don’t think it’s worth it when there are other samgyup places down the block.

    They are legit 24hr samgyup place! I like the cuts of the meat here. Soup is the best hindi tinipid sa ingridients. We even have this little cute crabs sa soup LOL!. Also enjoyed eating korean luncheon meat here. Over all expressing is very good πŸ‘ I just hope they get a bigger place to cater more people at the same time.

    My daughter and her friends had lunch earlier. 5pax in total. I was asked three times outside the parking if my child was not done yet. Seems like the guy wants me out of their parking. I was planning to bring my family 10pax in total but we will use two cars. He might ask us six times to leave?

    Been here twice this december but second time was not as great as the first. Here's why.. Waited not less than 30 minutes outside for them to prepare/set up (there's no queue and it was raining outside, we could have waited inside). Waited 20-30 mins for the 2nd refill -- Yes it was unli but we lost our appetite waiting and following up for the refill and that's the time I thought that the price that we would be paying was not worth it. Business seems to be understaffed.

    Good food. Customer service good though slow due to low staff count. Staff masked most of the time though cleanliness of venue is bad. Small cockroaches coming out even during busy dining time. That's a big no-no (very bad) because it is an indication of heavy cockroach infestation and population and breeding. Tables chairs the way food is served and refilled (side dishes) not hygienic. Will not come back for personal dining.

    It’s my first time to dine here at this branch. Knowing that this is the first branch, it’s kind of disappointing it was difficult to get the attention of the staff they were quite a lot on the floor. Next refills took a while, even the heating up of the grill. Meat quality was not the best at this branch. I think utensils were not enough because we were given plastic spoons and a plastic cup. Hope customer service will improve. The cheese dip was the only pleasant thing here.

    If you are willing to wait for the food to be served then you can definitely eat here. Though once food is served, you will defenitely enjoy. Another thing I didn't like was there were flies on this establishment and one fly got into one of the side dishes. I told the waitress about it and just apologized for it.

    I have tried many samgyupsal places but this one is the best to date. They have more side dish varieties compared to the rest. The beef pieces were thinly sliced but not too tiny. Very tasty pork. The soup is more flavorful and the staff are ever courteous. The one thing that prevented me from giving them five stars is that their restroom was oh so dirty! Disgustingly dirty! I wish management would act quickly to address this.

    Very nice authentic. They are using the traditional way of grilling by using charcoal which bring more flavor to the grilled meat. Side dishes are good as well.

  • 5/5 Leslie-Anne B. 5 years ago on Google
    Tasty.and real tender. 😁 I've been to others but Premier has real good meat which is made tastier because they use charcoal. They have cheese! Plus they serve two kinds of soup, egg and bulgogi. They have good ban chans and their refills are overflowing. Service is superb considering that we went here on a Sunday during dinner time. Parking won't be a problem since there's a paid parking lot nearby. Date of visit: 03.03.19

    ive been here multiple times. even before the pandemic its open 247. ive tried going here bfast, lnch , dinner even tried going here around 3 or 4 am.. the food is really good for thr price... however... cleanliness is its downfall... the floors... tables... cr.. if you are very sensitive with cleanliness this resto is not for you.. if its just the food and price its 5 stars for me..

  • 2/5 Marren C. 4 months ago on Google
    I've been dining in this restaurant for almost 6yrs and I can really see the downgrade of the service and food quality of this area. Imagine yourself paying 600+php and the rice quality is the same to NFA Rice and you even have to wait for nearly 15mins. A refill for an Iced tea would even take longer because they ran out of ice. Everytime they would bring refills and other side dishes, servers would always have to say sorry and thank you for patiently waiting. The soup is a joke. It has smokes but it's not even that hot. Taste wise, it's not recommendable.

  • 3/5 Cyril B. 4 years ago on Google
    If you are looking for a clean Korean BBQ where you will grill your meat ( here pork and chicken ) over a charcoal grill built into the dining table itself, then look no further. The crew is fast, efficient, polite and helpful. You will be given an assortment of side dishes that will be refilled as you desire. The meat was tasty, the grill was very efficient, our grill was replaced regularly to ensure a clean culinary experience. A must go.

  • 5/5 Aileen Charmagne E. 5 years ago on Google
    * Overall, great food and accommodating staff. * Soft drinks are a bit pricey. * No long queues when we arrived. * They have limited parking but there's a pay parking near the area. * Restrooms door knob and faucet is broken. Hope they get it fixed soon.

  • 4/5 Robbie L. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved the choices of meat. The meat was tasty. Only complaint is the lack of leg space when sitting in certain tables. I cannot sit well because of the big water tank in underneath the table

  • 5/5 CUBELO-MOTIN S. 6 months ago on Google
    Good food at its reasonable price...we come here everytime we crave on Korean barbecue..

  • 4/5 Maria 4 months ago on Google
    This place is ok. Food is average. We ordered the unlimited set which had about 9 kinds of meat. We really liked the thinly sliced one. Soup was tasty and you also get unlimited refills of the sides and drinks. However, they didn't have bottled water or juice. I also wish they had corn as a side. Waiters are very attentive and nice. The place itself is a bit tight if you have kids but if only dining with adults, it should be fine.

  • 4/5 Jan Paolo P. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is never an issue it is still one of the Premier I have tried..Waiting time is forgivable as we are on a pandemic situation. I just hope that they have a Valentines Promo or Giveaway earlier not just for Valentines but for other occasions too πŸ˜ƒ

  • 5/5 Yassi Y. 7 months ago on Google
    The food was great and also included the steamed egg that I'm looking for. Service was fast but a lot of people were waiting in line so you need to book in advance. πŸ₯Ή Hope to eat here again here soon.

  • 5/5 Jilliane Pauline M. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best K-BBQ places I've been to. Meat selections are great, and they have lots of side dishes too! Staff are friendly and are proactive with requests, too!

  • 4/5 Missing L. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is good. The servers are very accommodating. The price is ok. My sister frequents this place, which tells me that it's good. The Korean owner sometimes talks to his customers, especially the regulars & asks if they need anything else. Sometimes there is a wait line to go in because the place is packed.

  • 5/5 Kenner R. 9 months ago on Google
    The staff are very approachable especially sir Jerry. The side dishes are ok especially the egg. I love their marinated beef. The waiting time per serving is really fast. Overall I'm very satisfied with everything, a good value for your money.

    Premier The Samgyupsal is one of the few kbbq restaurants that is open 24/7 to satisfy your kbbq needs anytime of the day, plus it is on the affordable side. The ambiance of the place is nice and clean, and the guard and servers are very polite. However, the food failed to get my attention, and the meats are not marinated although very tender. There are many side dishes, but they have already run out of it according to the server. Mind you, we ate there at 8:30 am. It's taking them more than 30 minutes to serve you another round of meat and by the time you get it, you are no longer hungry, they only have 2 servers at the time we were there, assisting full house of customers. I guess you get what you pay for.

  • 5/5 Bernard Daniel E. 8 months ago on Google
    Pretty top-notch place for Korean BBQ. Great selection of sides and meats. It seats around 50 pax but you do have to line up yet it's worth the wait. Parking might be hard to find so do look around or ask the people outside for safe and decent parking.

  • 5/5 Cris G. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff are approachable, the place is decent and side dishes are ok especially the soup and the egg. In terms of meat choices, there are just a few choices. Although they have spam included in the mix and match menu (598) and the quality of pork is nice. You can't also ask for a refill, unless the previous order has been consumed already, though this is understandable. What I like the most is they are available 24 hrs.

  • 4/5 Alexis M. 1 year ago on Google
    I’ve been a fan of Premier the Samgyupsal Tomas Morato branch for years and this is the first time I tried their main branch in Malate. The place is easy to find and we were seated right away even though it’s a Friday night. The place was small and the side dishes are somewhat less than the Tomas Morato branch. Staff are too busy that you need to follow up stuff you ask a few times to get it. Basic stuff like scissors and tongs are not given right away and we had to ask for it a few times, same goes with the steamed egg. Overall, not happy with my first Premier Malate experience but might come back if I’m around the area and give them another shot.

  • 1/5 Rachel A. 1 year ago on Google
    I made reservation for 9 pax, only 8 came. @530 per head. I didn't know that the guarantee they send to confirm reservation will force to pay another 530.00 for one who didn't eat. Will never go back, ever to recommend to go to Premier again. So disappointed service😑

  • 4/5 Vincent T. 1 year ago on Google
    Good Korean samgyup. Sides available on request. The meats are good, but nothing super fancy or "premiere". Same for the sides. Space is a little on the small side, but not restricted. Still decent value for money for samgyup fans.

  • 5/5 Alex L. 9 months ago on Google
    The food was good, worth it yung price. The meat is okay plus the service staff, special mention kay Sir Jerry who assisted us the whole time we were there. The side dishes were good and marami. Will definitely come back here 🫢🏻

  • 1/5 Aaron James C. 1 year ago on Google
    If you want samgyup with NO rice then this is your place. Slow service, check. Unattentive staff, check. We sat and we were given the meat but no rice. So we followed up three times before they told us that they actually ran out. They were only able to give "3" cups of rice for 5 people. For the whole service, that's all we got to eat and I guess the side dishes that are so so in taste. RICE is LIFE!!! XDD

  • 3/5 Michael Oliver E. 4 years ago on Google
    I'll give it a 3 star due to sanitation and cost. Unlike other samgyupsal restaurant they're more expensive than others with limited types of meat. Also, I wanna call the management's attention because of the sanitation. There's a lot of flies inside the restaurant. But overall we still enjoy the food before the flies came in to the picture.

    Fresh meats to cook. One of the very nice place to eat Korean meats. The place is very wide and clean but needs to improve their ventilation. The place is quite hot when there are many customers inside. Still recommended.

  • 1/5 Eughe O. 3 years ago on Google
    Over priced. They will only serve you a total of 2 sets even though you're supposed to be paying unlimited. They will make sure to keep you waiting to lose time. AVOID!
