Our first family visit to Kimchi was a delight. Service was excellent, the food was lovely and overall experience was very good. Even though chef was on his own in the kitchen he managed to get food out super quick. There are 2 adults and 5 children in our family and we were made very welcome. The lady who served us gave us complimentary pork pancakes which were delicious. We will visit again soon!
Ate in here. Nicely decorated and comfy restaurant. Great tasty food. Portions were good but not too massive and filled us up. There was little food wasted!Three of us had three starters for the table and three mains. Can recommend this place.Plenty of vegetarian dishes or veggie variations, and a good selection of different things.Reasonably priced, friendly, and the food came out really quickly.One quirk... if you want a gap between starters and main order separately or let then know otherwise itll all come out at once! Not a problem but was amusing.
I have been in other two Korean restaurants in Birmingham and this is my favorite. I liked the ambience and the friendly staff. But the food, wow is just very tasty. They have several options for vegetarians and every plate was delicious. I recommend it a lot. Cant wait to go again.
Amazing food and great customer service. Definitely will come back more often. And good prices too! I love the food
Really lovely, reasonably priced, was just great.
Wow, what a truly amazing place, the food was perfect, every single dish was a joy to see, to smell and to taste. The smells from the kitchen gets your attention straight away. The service is polite, and personal the staff are attentive to every customer without being overwhelming, I just wish I could have eaten more, so now I will have make repeat visits till I have tasted all the delights on the menu!
Took a friend here for her birthday tonight as there was a good range of vegetarian options. We had never been before but reviews were good so thought we would take a chance- so glad we did!! The food was amazing! All of it was so delicious- we will defintely be back again as there was so much on the menu we wanted!It is a lovely little restaurant, clean, friendly staff and a nice atmosphere but best of all delicious food in good sized portions!
Food service is super speedy, food itself is delicious. Staff are friendly and its always a joy to visit. Wide selection of food and easy to read menu :)) very affordable prices especially for students.
Had a really great meal here with some friends and also amazing service from this family-run restaurant! We ordered several dishes but I only managed to take the picture of the Kimchi Jeon as we immediately tucked into the food after it all arrived! I recommend the Jeon and bibimbap (personal favourites), hopefully will be back soon :)
The food here was so great, everything was fresh and so full of flavour. The portions were generous too. The lady who served us was so so nice, everything about this restaurant is warm and welcoming. Thankyou, we will definitely visit again soon. 😁
Delicous food at very short notice. We popped in (2 people) for a take-away 30mins before closing time and the staff were very accommodating and kind. The food was also delicous, freshly prepared and filling at a reasonable price. Would definitely return again, and looking forward to eating in.
Lovely little restaurant. Friendly and helpful staff. Went not expecting much. Overwhelming surprised by the food and the whole experience. Cant wait to go again.
Nice little Korean restaurant. Good food
Visited here for the first time, we ordered some starters and I was so lovely and fresh, couldnt wait for a mains to come. I ordered chicken katsu and my partner ordered ramen, the mains were just as good very flavoursome. The service is good the food is quick, cooked fresh and piping hot. Give this place 9 out of 10. Would have got 10 out of 10 if they served alcohol, ( some type of Korean beer ). Will definitely visit again though.
Nice family run Korean restaurant. Food was good but menu choices were quite limited.
Was... ok... Chicken was average, ramen was again average.. beef with rice pretty bland. For the price I expected better. Little disappointed. Cocobabs is better, sorry guys
Ordered for the first time on Saturday night, excellent! Speedy delivery, amazing noodles with a generous portion. Son and husband had boneless chicken boxes with coleslaw and fries, the silence and empty boxes spoke volumes! We will be ordering again very soon
Walked in for a takeaway and there’s no one at the restaurant. Ordered some food and was expecting a 10% discount for takeaway and was told that I had to call to order beforehand. Asked if I can call now and wait and was told no. Felt that they make it difficult for one to enjoy the discount.
The food is good but there isnt many vegetarian options.
Revisited the restaurant again this afternoon and it was a delight. They have revamped the sitting area and it has made it more spacious. The staff was wonderful (knowledgeable) and friendly. The food was delicious too. Would have to go back and try the Korean BBQ one day!!Below was my review 3 yrs ago:Good value & good food. Clean restaurant & friendly staff :)
Cheap and cheerful. Not bad for a first try of Korean food
This restaurant is amazing. Seriously, I can’t even describe how delicious the food is and the premises is so cute and lovely. The owners are wonderful and very nice! I’ve eaten Korean food in a few different places over the world, but this is my first experience here in the UK and wow, it’s fantastic! My partner, who has never tried Korean food, said that this was the best food he’s ever had! Definitely come here if you like Korean food or If you want to try! You will not be disappointed! HIGHLY recommend!
Service was great and foods were fantastic.
Had takeaway from here earlier today. Food was fantastic. 30% discount for collection made the price more reasonable. Would have been nicer to have had more than 2 prawns and 2 clams in the denjang chige. Nevertheless, we really enjoyed the food and will be back for more!
Please make sure you try Formosa Izakaya in the city centre too if youre also going to eat here or have done before. The food is fine but nothing to write home about in comparison. The best item out of the four that we had was definitely the crispy fried chicken with honey and garlic sauce. The Chasu ramen was average at best unfortunately. Might come here again to try the more traditional Korean dishes.Overall, a decent enough restaurant in the Selly Oak area but definitely not the best in all of Birmingham.
I absolutely love this restaurant!!! Me and my partner call it our place because is our favourite place to order food.the lady who works there welcomes uss every time with a big smile.The food tastes like heaven. love pajeon and miso soup is my favourite
The food here is incredible! Very authentic and tasty and the family who run it are very welcoming and hospitable.
Based on todays experience we were quite satisfied with everything; the food, ambience and service. Reasonable prices with good portions. Been in few other korean restaurants in Birmingham but by far we liked this more. My husband was quite happy with his fish cakes ;) Will definitely come back! Highly recommend.😊👍
The best Korean restaurant in Birmingham
We love to go out. Yesterday we found this excellent restaurant which we didn’t know before. We spent a beautiful evening there with exceptional cooking and a well-trained stuff and a great cook. We put this place in our phone list and we will surely come back very soon. We highly recommend.
AMAZINGLY DELISH FOOD. I come here regularly and the seafood and veggie options are yummy and its a great place to dine with friends. Im here risking my safety during covid because Ive been craving the takoyaki and rappoki for days. The waiter is also very lovely. 💖(The meat is not halal btw)
Definitely the best Korean food Ive had. Portions were great, service was quick and friendly and the food was amazing! Will 100% be going back soon!! The sizzling chicken was a personal favourite!!Well done guys, hope you can survive the Covid crisis and keep delivering!!
Excellent food and excellent service. Could do with music perhaps, but had no issues in the slightest! Extremely clean amenities too. Modern and fantastic cute dinner spot.
Great food even to Korean
We had takeaway, and sadly the food was very bland, greasy and not as described on the menu. Definitely not accurate of authentic Korean food. Unfortunately we were disappointed and wont be returning. But the service was fast and very friendly!
Absolutely delicious! First time there and I would highly recommend. Fair prices, great portions. Staff were lovely and helpful!
The food I ordered was so good good. I ordered Korean garlic chicken, pork pancake and Hot stony pot.It was so authentic and very good taste. The staffs are so kind and atmosphere is so clean. I strongly recommend it.
Really amazing food, vegetarian and vegan options are tasty, everyone there is very nice, would recommend :)
Thanks for the food the noodles with the red sauce was nice but needs a bit more spice. The tempura squid was nice but I liked the fried calamari better also the sticky rice was nice so was the sea food noodle and the rice with some red sauce and noodles.what is the red sauce thats mixed with the thick noodles thank you.
Ordered takeaway from Kimchi because Id been wanting to try it and it did not disappoint! It was seriously delicious, Im already planning for my next takeaway night. I had the chicken katsu curry and the BBQ wings and those wings were heavenly. Cant recommend this place enough, cant wait to try more of their food!
The price of this dinner is not cheap and you can find more better choices with the same price you cost.The fried chicken is rough. The denjang soup is very disappointed which the soup is very small with only two baby clams and some vegetable. The beef is the best one i try this time but i will never try this restaurant again.(-᷅_-᷄)
Amazing dinner with my other half tonight !! Great portions, delicious katsu, plenty of vegetarian options - would recommend the kimchi pancake too! Thank you for a lovely meal :)
This place is absolutely one of the coolest place in the area. Anytime I go there I am incredibly satisfied. They maintain their very high standard service and the topmost level of meals they offer. You will be always satisfied with this place. Very recommended.
My husband and I often came here before lockdown and we cant wait to come back! We have tried many of the things they offer and we always enjoy the food very much!
Great food. Authentic as recommended by Korean friend. The fried chicken is amazing!
Guy serving was really nice, nice and clean pleasant premises, wasnt mad about my food but my partner really enjoyed his.
Very nice food and staff.Very welcoming , really enjoyed it great food especially the Sizzlers ( pork )Thank you
I take my family to this restaurant often! This is my favorite spot to eat. I go to this spot many times. The meals are excellent, the staff is friendly and the payment is reasonable. I like going in this place for a decent lunch.
THE BEST FOOD
Fantastic place, great food and very well priced. Highly recommended.
This was my first time eating at a Korean resturant and was very impressed with the whole experience.Friendly service from the staff, great looking menu and a relaxed environment that wasnt too busy.The food was delicious and the service was quick, its well priced too, so will definitely be bringing a friend back there soon !!!
Very nice food, great service highly recommend
Really good food and helpful staff. Decent price. Would be nice to have a beer with food though - even if BYO.
Great food and service. Highly recommend.
Great food, was served very fast.
10/10, lovely food and fast and friendly service
Authentic Korean food at a cosy restaurant. Great food and service!
Really good food, friendly staff. Some meals come with miso soup which was a bonus.
Really tasty food ! I recommend 😉
Just called, asked if the restaurant was actually Korean? I lived in South Korea for 3 years and having came back I have tried places selling fake Korean food, namely Chinese people trying to ride the Korean wave. Guy who answered the phone who I assume was Caucasian couldnt even answer a question like how do you say hello in Korean? He said the owners and staff were Korean so I dont understand why he couldnt at least reply with 5 syllables, which he should have known. He then hung up the phone on me. So it is a no.
My favourite Korean place in Birmingham. Staff is quite friendly, prices are fair and the food is really good. The have many options and there are grills for kbbq.
Lovely food and great customer service 😍😍
Delicious food
Really nice cozy place, big flavor foods, just would like then to take card payment
If you want authentic korean food, go to korea. This is adjusted for brittish tastes in the worst way. Bland.
Never had Korean food before. It was pleasant enough but I prefer Chinese. My Chinese friend said it was more like traditional Chinese food than your usual Chinese takeaway so I guess it was pretty authentic. Good service and helpful staff.
All good
Oh yes! OH YES! The place is amazingly cosy and cleverly set, the food is delicious and the service is absolutely flawless! I highly recommend!
Tasty Korean sizzling pork, however needed a second waitress as service was a little slow, but food came out quickly once ordered.
The food and service were both excellent. We will definitely be returning soon.
Super fast and lovely food!! :)
Ive been here 4 times and the food is great and comes quick. Ive had friendly waiters and the owner is really nice.
Best Kimchi in Town
Great food, great service! Will DEFINITELY be going back there!
