Terrible service and even worse system. They were still promoting the deal outside the shop but quietly removed it from the system. It feels like a scam. The staff were rude and unhelpful. Easily one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve had in Singapore.

The waiter was inattentive despite off-peak hours. We had to request complimentary kimchi. Despite it being free-flow, the waiter didn’t bother to refill. The rice served was cold and had hard grains.

This is by far the worst Korean ramen I’ve ever had in my life. No exaggeration. I went in around 4pm, and the dish was prepared by an Indian lady (no offense intended, just stating a fact). The ramen was honestly disgusting. A raw egg was cracked directly into the soup, and the smell was so fishy and off-putting that I felt nauseous the moment it was served. I understand that raw eggs are used in some Singaporean dishes, but this is supposed to be Korean cuisine. It completely ruined the experience. I rarely leave reviews, but this time I’m genuinely upset. Never coming back!

Great place for cheap drinks. It's very chill. My drink was amazing!

We had a late lunch here at 2 PM and had the whole place to ourselves. Ordering was easy via QR code. I ordered the lunch set, which came with a drink, and my husband got the fried rice. The fried rice was too sweet for his liking, but I enjoyed the flavor. My noodles (the spicy one, I've forgotten its name) were delicious and not too spicy. There was plenty of egg and chicken. I prefer the ambience of the Plaza Singapura outlet – it's a little too blue here, but I suppose it matches the night vibe at Clarke Quay. I would definitely recommend it if you enjoy Korean food.

Very cool experience. Came for the food and it did not disappoint! Portions are rather small but still filling! Loved LOVED the fried tteokbokki. Will recommend the kimchi shin ramyeon for those who enjoy spicy food. It’s really good. Crispy tteokbokki was okay; personally, I preferred it to be spicier, but it was quite sweet, unexpectedly. The cocktails are also very cool and interesting. The Dalgona cocktail was surprisingly not that sweet. It leaned more towards a coffee taste. Blueberry cocktail was average. Pretty much just a blueberry-flavoured soju. Peach Long Island is good in its own right, a bit too sweet for me. Melona cocktail was also fun to try! We spent a total of $170, exclusive of GST and service charge. So it can be rather pricey.

We had the Duo Set, which was really worth it. The food was nice, and the service was really helpful and kind. They also offered us complimentary ice cream before leaving the outlet, which was an extra point for me! You might want to sit outdoors for a better atmosphere; we stayed indoors for easier service! ⭐️

Fantastic food and great ambiance for a fun family gathering. Had the 1-meter platter, perfect for sharing. Awesome assortment of street food! The marinated crabs are so good! Must try! Bibimbap are good too, super satisfying. Will come again!

Had a great time at this bar! The atmosphere is vibrant with cool neon lighting, giving it a fun and energetic vibe. The drinks were served **ice-cold**, and the presentation was on point. Loved the Terra beer selection, and the service was quick and friendly. A great spot for a casual hangout with friends. Would definitely come back!

Came in without expectations and left super happy. Happy Hour cocktails were amazing. Service was great amidst the busy Valentine's Day night. The food was the greatest surprise. Love the Korean Fried Chicken, Potato Corn Dog, and Eunok! Will definitely be back.

Best Korean fried chicken I have ever had. I've only had it twice – once in Seoul and the other time here in Singapore – and I found this one a lot tastier.
