Great for large groups. We were a group of about 14.The food is quite expensive but the portions are huge. I found the pricing very uneven , some dishes like dumplings for $22 (6 pieces) or beef tataki for $29 in comparison with mains.About 4 times they brought us stuff we haven't ordered and on the other hand my papaya salad took the longest. When everyone finished their meal, I got mine.Mains should be served at the same time. There were about 20-30mins gaps between all of us getting our mains.My tuna tartare was very bland and missed some crackers with it. And so was my papaya salad (tasteless)Others liked their food. I tried the Bulgogi which was delicious, so was the karaaghe chicken.

Can never go wrong with these guys, food is always consistent and delicious. Dined in twice and have bought takeaways many times within a space of 2 years. Always my go to for gourmet Asian food, fresh and mouth watering. Staff are very helpful and friendly, I have visited at 11.30am which I suggest is a great time if you don't like busy crowds. Night time is very lively and busy, either way food is never a let down. Highly recommend.Update as of 07/08/2021I can agree with recent reviews in regards to the change of ownership. I bought drunken noodles and it definitely does not taste the same. Lacks flavour and was tad dry which before was never the case. Also the customer service has gone done from a 5 to a 2/5. Dont think I will be returning here anytime soon.

Great flavours, BUT horrible beef: big chewy gagging inducing lumps as well as nice thin strips. Get better beef trim and check it, don't just chuck it in sight unseen. Better stick with chicken from now on.

Good food, bad service. We arrived on time for our 6:30pm dinner with 6 people. We were asked to order via the QR code on the table. When we did not receive our meals or any drinks by 7:30pm I asked at the counter and was told the online system had gone down and they had not received our order - which we had already paid $250+ for. They promptly prepared our meal based on the receipt on my phone, had run out of 2 of the items by this time - which I’m still waiting for a refund for.In addition to this:- we were not given cutlery when the dumplings were served and had to wait & ask, while watching the food get cold- they forgot to give us soy sauce for the mixed sashimi platter (we had to ask twice)- they did not clear the table between servings, I had to personally deliver the empty plates to the dish washer throughout the meal so that the table had enough space.- we brought a bottle of champagne to celebrate an occasion and was provided only 3 glasses for 6 people.By the time we left we had spent over 1.5 hours waiting for the food, and took almost 2.5 hours.I’ve been visiting here multiple times and the other times were great. But last night was memorable for all the wrong reasons.

Good customer service and pretty quick. Both the size and the price of the food portions are reasonable. A large menu with many of options.

The food is great and I'm usually a fan. However the service we experienced was very disappointing. We ordered via the online app as we were told it would be faster given they were understaffed so we did. The meals was staggered coming out, waiting for 30 minutes between them. 2 meals did not come out despite them already being paid for so after a reminder they started to prepare them, this was 2 hours later. Nothing against the meals they are great, but a recommendation. Don't put a GF option if you're chef isn't willing to make them. And don't overbook the restaurant if you don't have the capacity to provide the service. Thank you.

I have been here about 6 times now and enjoyed it every single time. The food is really great (you should try the pork belly bao)! And we were pleasantly surprised to have live jazz music played while we dined. Shout out to the lovely lady that sang happy birthday for my brother's birthday.

Came after a very long time. We ordered karaage chicken, soft shell crab and drunken noodles. The karaage chicken was very very good, I think lack a little bit of salt on the chicken but the dipping sauce pairs well with it. Soft shell crab was not bad, I was not a big fan of the sauce though. The drunken noodles was very yum and portion was generous and lots of prawns. Overall it was very delightful meal.
