    The taste/quality of the food was not compromised despite its cheap price. You’ll get more than what you paid for. Definitely one of the cheapest Korean restaurants here in the Philippines. If you will eat alone, it is not advisable to have Rappoki with Cheese, Yang Nyeom Chicken, and Mango Bingsu all at once since the serving is quite big. Well unless you have big appetite.

    Good food, and plenty of space to catch-up with friends. The staff are very approachable and helpful with our requests, thanks again! They also have Silly Lily as pastries, which I’ve been waiting for months to try and I finally got to try them! Needs to be pre-ordered/reserved in advance though because they sell out quick.

    Seoul Kitchen is our go-to place for Korean food. It was in 2016 when I first ate there and I always go back. Even during the pandemic, we would order in advance and pick-up our orders from the store. I think I've tried almost all food items in the menu and they remained consistent over the years. The staff are always accommodating ever since and even the owners are warm and friendly when they are in the store. I only have good words for this place and it's super highly recommended. 🤩

    One of highly recommended Korean dishes with affordable price. We tried their Bibimbap Chicken with kimchi side dish, Kimbap, and Rappokki with Cheese. Will try the other dishes when we go back here.

    Ive been a loyal customer of seoul kitchen since 2015 and the tastes of their food didnt change. It is still comforting. As time passed by, they’d added new dishes in their menu which is really appealing. One of them are the cakes & pastries. So, here are my recommendations. 1) rapokki with cheese or teokbokki. ( favorite!) 10/10 2) korean fried chicken (yang nyeom flavor) 10/10 3) kimbap (kimbap, beef, tuna, spicy pork) 8/10 4)salad pasta (8/10) 5)bibimbap (7/10) 6) chicken mayo (5/10) 7)kori kopi (10/10) 8) croffle baked by silly lily (9/10) 9) matachalatta (7/10) too sweet 10)bingsu (9/10) As always, their service is good and crew members are very hardworking. Good job! The only downside is the price of each dishes is slightly higher than before but I understand why. Overall, best korean restau in LB.

    Surprisingly good. The only issue is they dont have the typical korean snack, which is fried chicken that's bite sized and boneless.

    The food is great, absolutely enjoyable and price is reasonable. I wish the appetizer came first as it should, cos you're starving from waiting but then you're full enough to even have the main dish as they arrive the same time. The dessert was light and sweet, which was heavenly... Would be my favorite there. I had Tuna Kimbap, Pork Donkas Curry and Matcha Tiramisu. Service is a little slow, but it is to consider I went during lunch rush; There's even a line waiting to be seated since the space is compact.

    We had beef bibimbap, japchae and mango bingsu. The serving size is reasonable. The beef in the bibimbap is flavorful. I didn't get the flavor that I want in the japchae. It's a bit salty for my palate. The texture of the noodles is just right. We love the bingsu. I love the combination of the chunks of cheese and the mangoes. We particularly love the cheese( I am a cheese lover). The size of the chunks are just right for the bite. I think it's just a bit pricey since they have the same price or slightly higher price in Metro Manila.

    I’m just newly discovering Korean cuisine and I love how I got to explore more of it through Seoul Kitchen. After a three-hour road trip, it was so satisfying to eat authentic Korean dishes. We ordered sundubu chigae, fried chicken, haemul pajeon and bingsu. Not yet an expert but I can tell that each were created in the most authentic manner. Will definitely be back whenever we’re in Los Baños.

    Third day during our return to Elbi and we were losing hope in our never-ending search for good coffee. Seoul Kitchen to the rescue! Even though they're more of a Korean restaurant rather than a fully-pledged coffee shop, the coffee they offer is top tier. They actually use specialty coffee! The food was also A+! And the croissant! *chef's kiss*

    I really enjoyed the food here. My friend booked in advance and we waited for around 10 minutes to have our seats ready. The service was pretty good.

    If you're in LB or somewhere near it, and are craving Korean food, SEOUL KITCHEN IS THE PLACE TO BE! Luscious food, gracious staff, and cozy atmosphere will welcome you. Get your ears ready for Korean entertainment courtesy of their TV playing nonstop Korean music videos. Plus, the prices are relatively lower! I recommend their Rabokki with Cheese! <3

    I highly recommend seoul kitchen! 😇 affordable prices and authentic korean foods 😇 It's my first time to try rapoki with cheese and I really enjoyed it, the flavor blends well with spiciness. 😇 We also ordered mango bingsu! 😀and tuna kimbap How to get there? If you are from manila ride a bus going to sta cruz laguna get off the buss at los baños (caltex across olivares) then ride a jeep going to UP (UP kanan or UP gate will do) then tell the driver to drop you at mernels. From mernels walk a little then turn right then walk straight maybe 5mins more seoul kitchen is on the right side 😇😇😇 Enjoy!

    Affordable and delicious Korean dishes are served here, from the appetizers to the main course and up until the dessert you will have more than one reasons to come back and share the great experience with families and friends.

    “To order, please call one of our friendly staff” the menu reads. The only problem is, none of the staff wears a badge to identify whether they are or not. So, I stopped one and asked him if he was friendly. After looking at me as if I’d come from another planet, he pointed out that all the staff in the restaurant are friendly. So, I could take my pick as to whom I would place my order with! So with that out the way, I would say that this is definitely one of my favourite restaurants in Los Baños. The food is good, the staff are super friendly, it’s good value for money. This was my 5th visit and I will definitely be returning plenty of times in the future. Well done SK!

    Love the croissants 💞. The place is clean and peaceful. It is good for students or dates, which is near UP and dorms. They only accept cash or Gcash, and the receipt is handwritten. We ordered butter croissants over the counter, and there were plenty of them. They said it is out of stock!! And they offered us another option. Anyway, I will visit them again to try other dishes.

  • 4/5 Cernan M. 11 months ago on Google • 65 reviews
    the croissants are worth the visit. the best that we tried in the area. pork galbi 4 out of 5 bibimbap 5 out of 5 soy garlic chicken 4 out of 5 (can't taste the garlic) kimbap 4 out of 5 pork cutlets with curry 4 out of 5 japchae 3 out of 5 caramel macchiato 5 out of 5 cappuccino 4 out of 5 will come back for the pastries and coffee will try the bingsu next time

  • 5/5 jinnie b. 1 year ago on Google • 54 reviews
    my second time to visit this place. my fave was bibimbap but this time i tried another from the menu. i liked the kimbap and really like the oreo bingsu. it was great for sharing💙 a bit pleasant experience yet great food! i didn't enjoy the atmosphere that much because we had lunch during peak hours. if you're looking for a place to have a peaceful meal time, don't go on weekends and peak hours... the area was fully packed. there were group of customers who are really loud. :( i wish the owners are planning to expand or have another branch. we also have to wait for some time but it's alright. I'll still go back here.

    Location very accessible to everyone, there's parking and you can park anywhere I think. As long as you're not blocking any gates and the road. Ambiance is also okay, very cozy and a bit spacious inside. Food was amazing as always, but one flaw is there was hair on our beef kimbap, which is we noticed late. but we of course let the staff know about it. Food servers, after we informed them about the hair on our food of course they did replaced it, but we don't mind it at first but we didn't hear any apologies from them. They just went away and fix it. Yes we all want that fast resolution but that ruins the overall experience as a dinner, I don't mind the hair, I was not mad or anything but hearing no apologies throw me off. nevertheless food is amazing, and delicious 🤍

  • 4/5 Jemimah Ruth C. 4 years ago on Google
    Aunthentic. You get what you pay for. A little up high for the price but food are great. Would recommend for you to try jjampong and bibimbap ( sorry I forgot to take a pic). They have coffee and cakes too. Their bingsu is also a must try

  • 5/5 Dominik J. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful, clean place with delicious food for good prices. The quality and presentation of the dishes is really complementary to the place. Love having meals there and so do a lot of other people so expect to wait during rush hours. Definitely worth the wait though.

  • 5/5 Arvin Lester Cornejo J. 1 year ago on Google
    The place got better and more spacious. They now also house a croissant and pastries corner, and those croissants are superb, as well. ❤️❤️❤️

  • 5/5 Lolli Mae G. 4 years ago on Google
    In photo: Oreo Bingsu, Matcha Tiramisu and Ddalki cake After so many tries, I finally was able to taste their Ddalki cake! It's so yummy! I love the tartness of the strawberry and sweet cream icing of the cake. The sponge is so soft and milky too. The oreo bingsu is great too. For chocolate lovers like me, it was such great flavor. I love the textural contrast of the brownies against the shaved ice. Yummy! The matcha tiramisu is wonderful. The bitter matcha flavor compliments the tangy flavor of the cream cheese icing thingy. 😇

  • 5/5 Adrian A. 4 years ago on Google
    Excellent quality of food and ambiance, service is great! The employees know what their roles are and are very quick, responsive, and have the good sense for tables that need help or need water bottles that need refills. I first ate in Seoul back when they're starting, having their place rented in a dormitory, their food was good but not that appetizing to look at. And now, I'm really amazed on how they've been successful all these years. More power to them.

    It's my first time eating here. My friend and I entered the restaurant at around 8pm and ordered after approximately 5 minutes. Received our orders: Soy Garlic Chicken (P175) and Donkas Chicken (P220) at 8:34pm (they didn't disclose the waiting time so we were waiting cluelessly for a while). I don't know if this is the usual waiting time or because it was Saturday and was nearing closing. Nonetheless, the food was good and warm and the serving sizes were appropriate for its price. It doesn't include drinks but they served it with water. Their staff are indeed friendly. But if you are in a hurry, I suggest looking for another place to eat. Overall, it was a nice experience to dine in. Would go back soon to try their other dishes.
