Reviews

The back of the restaurant has great aesthetic, with amazing ambience and spacious also. The food was really delicious with a concise menu so you don't need to spend ages thinking about what to order. All decently sized with amazing tasting cocktails as well. The steak was well cooked to a medium rare but was a bit plain in flavour. Everything else was great! Good service to top off as well.

Unremarkable from the road front. Even as you enter, it looks like a rather drab diner. Feeling a little confused with the empty seats; we were told this place was awesome. After a minute of waiting to be seated we were taken through the drab diner, out the back to what is like another world! A small bar and beautifully set out restaurant. A nice array of plants, colours textures and lighting that together created a nice ambience to dine. Then came the food! Oh my god what lovely, well presented food. Very tasty too. It was a little on the pricey side and we were still a little hungry when we left but an otherwise great experience. Highly recommend a visit.

Great place. Extremely fast and friendly service. The food was super tasty and good portions too. We went via first table so we were sat in the front of the restaurant. It was lovely for our date night and even the music was good.

Definitely worth a visit to try something new. The chef is doing a really good job. The other staff seemed a bit indifferent in my opinion. I believe some friendly touch/attention would make it a 5 star experience for me. Otherwise, the atmosphere is very nice, thanks for the effort to make it look lovely and cozy.

Good food. Kimchi flavour was mild in dishes to cater for people who are new to kimchi, however they do sell it as a side. Menu variety is on the lower side so hard to justify multiple visits if you’ve tried everything. Service was good, the staff were friendly. The restaurant actually opens up to a courtyard kinda thing if you walk to the end, and clean modern bathrooms. Had this as a first table, can’t go wrong with those prices. Would recommend the bao buns though chicken ones were a bit dry, calamari, kimchi fries and rice. Personally would avoid eggplant - it was a bit flavourless but I think that’s just me.

I would have given 5 stars on the food, but I felt the portion size was a little smaller. Otherwise, this place is AMAZING!! The kimchi fried rice is simply superb! Also, they don't do the waffle fries anymore!Recommended dishesKimchi Fried Rice

Come to the CBD shopping.  The storefront is simple, sophisticated, and clean, with a garden at the back, well worth backyard dining.  Randomly walked into this shop and was surprised to see that I like spaghetti with squid ink sauce, and it really tastes good.

First Table:  If you dine with FT, you will be sat at the cafeteria area, despite the fact the back which is gorgeous was completely empty. But part of their T&Cs. Yuzuonade was nice, not too sweet. Kimchi trio was great. I would say the highlight. Mainly the White Kimchi. Ordered Korean BBQ Feast, which could easily feed 2-3 people.. Instead of waffle cut fries, we got potato wedges which tasted like made from frozen packaged. Meat was OK. The chicken had just a bit of marinade on the top. Prawns were delicious. Pork was nice. But overall lack of flavours except a sauce you get on the side which is a bit hard to pour, if you clumsy like me.. Haha. Green salad was just regular dry mesclun leaves without anything on it. For Korean fusion I was expecting big strong flavours..

Portion absolutely not acceptable.  Ordered take away rose rice cake, it tastes great but the portion is seriously not expected from $25 dish. Just a bite rather than a meal.Food: 1/5

I really enjoyed their courtyard and the ambiance, but the food and flavours didn’t wow me. The food took longer than I expected, so if you’re out there wanting an express lunch then I suggest you go elsewhere. The soft shell crab was good. The seafood kimchi laksa was spaghetti pasta noodles, which was too fusion in my opinion - as kimchi and laksa together are semi-fusion itself. Mussels were rubbery - not fresh. Would I go again? Yeah, of course. It’s a nice venue to catch up with friends and menus change anyway, but I would have less expectations next time.
