Gukbab

The soup was perfect to have for lunch on a rainy day. I enjoyed the music they had in the background and the Christmas vibe they set up in the restaurant.

Will definitely go back when I'm in the area.

Good spot for a quick and very satisfying feed, not as busy as some of the other restaurants in the area so was easy to get a table. Loved the beef bone broth!

Came here due to our craving of Korean ginseng soup.

Although the soup didnt have much of a herbal taste but it was delicious.

We also ordered an egg roll with cheese and LA Galbi. They were very good!
The egg roll was quite huge and really filled us up.

I was also impressed by how fast they served the foods.

The place was quite busy but we didn't have to book to get a table.

Overall, it was a good experience for us.

We came across this place whilst looking for a place to have our dinner. It was getting busy but we managed to get a table and ordered the vegetables tofu soup, corn dog toppoki and beef bibimbap. All the dishes were really delicious and we were happy to have found this restaurant. Will definitely return for another meal.

My favourite place for pork rice soup (gukbap) in Melbourne!

We had an absolutely delightful feast at their newly renovated venue! Thoroughly enjoyed everything ranging from Seafood Pancakes, Japchae, 8 flavours of Korean Fried Chicken to Army Stew and Braised Beef Stew - all these are so delish. Best to pair with Korean beers, soju & makgeolli.
Heartwarming Korean family style dishes, friendly staff and cozy seatinf. Can’t wait to be back for more!

The food is tasty, cozy atmosphere. Great place to hang out with friends, not too crowded or noisy.

Great vibe at this place! Felt like I was transported to a local eatery in Seoul. Loved the Dae-ji guy bap....so authentic and such a soul warming comfort soup. The LA beef short ribs and jajangmyeon was delicious too! I'm coming back with a few more friends so we can have more variety.

My place to go for my comfort food like dwaeji or sundae gukbap. They can be a bit inconsistent sometimes, but overall experience has been great. Their banchans and japchae are simple but pretty good. They also have fried chickens and bulgogi and they are pretty decent.

Decent ambience, great Kimchi, amazing Korean cuisine and decent customer service - not much else is required to make this a dining spot offer the weekend. The cheese and corn dish was out of this world - simple, yet amazing taste. Lot of stews and soups are available and I'm sure all are as yummy as the one we tasted. The chicken dish is pretty standard taste so nothing unique there but the stew had loads of flavour.

Came here and had the soondae gukbap. The soup was good and the soondae very decent. If anything, the soup didn't have enough soondae or other offal. Instead, there was just too much fatty meat. I visited this place 2 years ago as well when I was in town and their grilled meats, fried chicken and other items on the menu were pretty much spot on. It is located in a quiet corner of the city and was quite a walk from the Grand Hyatt but it was good to walk off the food.

Always delicious always quality. Been coming here since 2011 and never had a bad experience.
Still my favorite korean in Melbourne.Dishes are even better,the decor still homely and helpful staff.

really good quality food, their portion sizes are generous as well so you do really get what you’re paying for.

service was fast and had an easy ordering system.

they do not split the bill on groups so just keep in mind!

Outstanding service, the fried chicken wasabi flavour was so good and the ginseng chicken is a must have for anyone whose never tried it, you can eat the whole chicken bones and all. The bones will melt in your mouth.

This place is my hangover cure. Always always always enjoy a nice piping hot gukbab from here when I'm hungover.

It's also an amazing place on cold and wet days, grab yourself some soup and ice cold soju!!

The staff here are super pleasant and are always happy to help me! Also they have more than just their speciality Korean gukbab on the menu, the menu is quite diverse and has great side dishes, the Kimici pancake here is delicious.

Lastly this is the only place in Melbourne that does truly ice cold soju!! (If you give the bottle a good whack it turns into slush((see pics)).

Delicious, hearty and filling food that doesn’t break the bank. The portions were WAY bigger than expected, but didn’t skimp on quality at all. The ginseng chicken soup surpassed all my expectations.
I had no idea that the chicken would be filled with rice, but it was a lovely welcome surprise. There was even a ginseng root in the soup. 10/10 would recommend.

Always delicious, friendly service and quickly served. Must try is the LA beef ribs.

Had an amazing time at Gukbab after their recent renovation. Wouldn't hesitate to go again! My favourite dish is the spicy fried chicken

Have been coming here for 10 years, absolutely love it. Great menu, impressive setup, kind staff. I've never been to Korea,but this place transports me there every visit, which a restaurant should do. I recommend it to anyone who asks.

Tried jjimdak and sundoobu soup absolutely loved both. Attentive and friendly staff too. I’ll definitely be returning.
