Came for dinner on a Friday night, the crowd started pouring in around 8. Staff wise, there were about 5 people manning the floor. They tried but they were not enough to be honest, it was hard to get their attention. Service was all over the place - rushing to cook the meat that the contents flew out of the bbq pit. If its hard we can just do it ourselves.We ordered one of the big sets for 3-4 pax and some additional meat. Flexibility was good as we could choose a different pancake from the one that was offered in the set. Meats were ok, tasted good but the marinated meats werent as good as I remembered them to be. Used to come here pretty often.
Food that we had: The kimchi stew was excellent (as always) and our first time trying the black bean paste noodles and by far is one of the best I have tasted in Malaysia (not too sweet , balanced and the noodles are fresh). We also had beef stew that is our go to every time and still good.The staff and bosses of Dao Rae SS2 / hartamas / Usj / Puchong have been consistently friendly and helpful. They take care of their customers, place and hygiene.I am always satisfied and happy after every meal. Keep it up !
One of the more comfortable Korean BBQ restaurant chain in Malaysia. Menu is pretty standard but have some new additional dishes. Prices is much higher than others but over here, you get comfort with air con instead of eating outdoors. The waiters are fast and attentive. A good place for families and kids to come enjoy korean food. Also do come early as the crowd comes in during 7pm plus.
All the staff that served us are very polite, friendly and funny as well. The boss offered us a free pork side dish which is finger licking delicious 😋We reached around 8:45pm, and by 9:15pm they actually checking with us whether do we wanna add on any additional side dish as the kitchen is closing soon.We were kinda nervous that they are closing soon, but all the staff calm us by telling us we can take our time to enjoy our food, no rush for us and still servicing us promptly.We ordered a small pot of kimchi jeongul, delightfully satisfied dinner we have. Fantastic customer service 👍🏼👍🏼
Bad Service during MCO3.0Customer have to wait more than an hourEven for delivery riders toono proper serviceHope so they upgrade by placing chairs for customer to sitand add on staffonly one staff is managing the pick up and making order
Tastes like original Korean food. Best branch out of all the daorae in my opinion. Polite and friendly staff and good service.
Super bad service, no kidding.It’s okay if the food coming slow during dinner time, I’ve waited half an hour and tried to call a staff to ask but ignored me. Fine.When making payment the boss is so rude and no manners.And the important part is the food just so so, the vege too old and dry. the whole dinner like just to fulfill my stomach and it’s not enjoyed.Only nice thing is the TEA
Meat overcooked... Same staff attending few tables. Hmm... Lucky still can digest
Very nicely marinated spicy meat. Love the seafood pajeon and pork fried rice as well. They help you barbecue the meat, but it is quite understaffed and the staff do not speak english so communication may be difficult.
Been awhile we have not had good Korean food. Last visit was bang average, but today was a definite improvement in food quality.
Daorae never dissapointed me. And this branch got 1 of the head waitress is so friendly and good services, all the way BBQ the meat nicely to serve us. Make us have a easy & comfortable dinner.
Fantastic service!!! The waiters are super attentive n they ask u if u want to refill before u can even think of doing so. Pork n chicken was also very tender. Will definitely go again.
Food is okay. Service was really good. I accidentally dropped my chopsticks and the waiter immediately came over with a new pair of chopsticks before I even asked. Thumbs up
Generous portion and good service during lunchtime
Not what i expected.! Side dish is limited. But overall OK only
Service is fantastic but this is probably the worst korean bbq i’ve ever had, meat is really tough and chewy and the meats used are not high quality at all. the only good thing there was the jajeongmyeon and the serving size for the vegetables is tiny compared to other restaurants like qinghegu that gives u a giant basket
Ya..korea bbq...mmm..for this outlet compare to other i think i would prefer outlet at Sri Hartamas...
Service was soooo bad. We ordered the set for 4 pax. They forgot the hotpot until we asked, and it then took a long time to come. They also needed reminders to serve soups that came with the sets and refills requests were ignored. Servers dont seem to understand what we wanted and dont even respond. Wont come again.
The restaurant is quite dated, service was abit slow but food is not bad.
Very nice , and the staff service was very excellent
The guy taken my order very polite and professional. However, Im really disappointed take an hour plus only able to collect my 2 dishes. Even the few customer order after me also able to collect first.
The place is quite cosy with half of the space allocated to raised wooden platform. Food-wise, whatever you come to expect from a Korean restaurant they have it. Servers are also attentive to your request. Ideal place to bring clients, dates or have long dinners with friends.
Great food with excelent customer service. The service staff is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
The only thing authentic about Daorae is the owner. The food unfortunately has been changed to accommodate Malaysian taste. Way too sweet.
Food.. Over-all not bad. Nice service! Staff are friendly and the environment is nice.
Pancake is nice. The BBQ meat without sauce is not so nice. Good environment and healthy side dish
Good restaurants
Took Set 5 for 2-3 pax. Very underwhelming side dishes, not tasty at all to be honest. Kimchi stew was watery and bland, kimchi itself was so so. The only tasty thing was the seasoned meat. Wouldnt come back again, although I recall enjoying the daorae lunch set in Hartamas branch.
White and brown Loh Mee equally good...
Its Daorae. Youll find them all around Malaysia. The food is pretty good but the prices are a little higher than some other Korean BBQ restaurants. Still, its Daorae, you wont go wrong here.
The place was nice, the food not bad with reasonable price.
Fresh meat, average kimchi, excellent service. We had the RM208 set for 4 pax and it comes with kimchi soup with ramen.
The food is very good and I enjoy coming for lunch with my colleagues. Somehow, it is a little bit quiet. Perhaps it is the location because it is 1st floor, and they should try to advertise a bit more.
Can’t be denied that the food is delicious and the staff are friendly. However, My only feedback is the minimum 1 order per person. It doesn’t make any sense that my boyfriend had his dinner and he was just giving his companion for me because I was craving for it and hadn’t have my dinner and he also had to order a dish. It was too much for myself to finish it and ended up wasted the food. Ridiculous isn’t?
Standard dorae. Never dissapointed. Food is nice and staff are efficient. Would come back again.
The place is clean and tastefully decorated, and the staff friendly and responsive. The food is of consistently high quality, and there is quite a wide variety of side dishes (banchan) as well. My go-to place for Korean fare.
Good food nut the pricing is steep. But delicious food, free flow ice cold tea, cant complain for good environment. Parking is hell outside. =)
BBQ pork items are very delicious. Side dishes are fairly unique and change each time. The seafood pancake was slightly undercooked though and we would have preferred if it was more thoroughly cooked.
Nice food, nice service
Good food, good service. Very strong Korean atmosphere
Great service and delicious BBQ they will grill for you and unlimited refills of side dish
Attentive and friendly staff. Lotsa side dishes with refills . The boss works hard and shows responsibility . Recommend the bbq
Great food, great service.
Good price for awesome quality food and services
Good foor but a little slow service
Food was great, service was great, totally recommend this place, will definitely come back again
Good service, they change bbq steel pan every meat set they grill to maintain cleanliness of the meat, delicious food and comfort environment
Food taste is good, people is friendly and its make me satisfy on the first time I come
Average Korean BBQ restaurant, but convenient location no need to go all the way to Mont Kiara, might have problem to find parking space during peak hours
Good food and good service
Food is good, better than before. Stops me from going to Taipan USJ branch since they improve. Just a tip, always tell the staff how you want your beef bbq to be cook. Or else they might just over cook it.
Nice food but a bit pricey.
Yummy food but price a little high
Went to puchong branch with high hopes but ended up utterly disappointed. Was there with my family along with my baby today and the Korean boss was taking our orders with very bad attitude when we did not realised that minimum order of bbq meat should be 2 dishes. Worse still, when we requested him to bbq our pork at other tables, he unhappily telling us that all tables are full when they are not, moreover, giving double standard services by bbq other customers meat at an empty table behind us. Not a considerate boss at all when i have a baby with me and hes bbq ing all around us yet there are plenty of empty tables elsewhere! As there are still plenty of Korean restaurants around, Ill never go back to daorae again!
Authentic Korean food with efficient service
Awesome foods. Love it
Ntg much. Just that their foreign workers are more powerful than the customer and it seems like theyre having period at the same time altogether. Asked us to leave even before their closing time and I haven fin my soju at that time. Other customers are still slurping their jiggae without any prob. This happened because I brought 2 other friends who already had their dinner and its just me alone alone ordering. I ordered kimchi jiggae and a bottle of soju for myself and after my food is served, they just keep coming over to check if my friends are stealing my food. Come on, are you expecting them to wait down stairs as I have my dinner alone? By the way, their kimchi jiggae taste as bland as plain water, ban chan was good tho. Not sure if its their way to revenge which I swear I did ntg wrong.
Service considered pleasant...food was ok
Boss and staffs all from Nepal, very kind and enthusiastic with customers. Very 👍
Love the sides... And the Gal Bi Tang

Have to say that the food is not the best, limited side dishes, maybe on that day only. Portion was a bit small for that price.
Got severe food poisoning from their pork belly
Best korean food
Clean and comfortable environment to dine in:)
Servis are good
