  “We absolutely love Bento Bab! We first came here a couple of months ago and ended up coming back twice this week—that should tell you how much we enjoyed it. The food is delicious and tastes authentic. The banchan were excellent, and we’ve enjoyed everything from the tabletop Korean BBQ to several other menu items. The citrus tea is an absolute keeper! Just as impressive as the food is the service. Everyone has been so welcoming, friendly, and professional, making every visit a great experience. If you’re looking for authentic Korean food in a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend Bento Bab. We’ll definitely be back!”

  “Bento Bab Is our all time fav when we fancy Korean BBQ/ food. Kimbab is my fav. It has really fresh flavour with meat and healthy veg in it. Love it! We always do BBQ here too. We have tried all kinds of meat except lamb. Chicken galbi and beef bulgogi are must try! The service is excellent. They always serve you with a smile and they help you with the BBQ too. Inwon is so lovely and sweet :) You might need to make a booking at weekends or come early. One thing is that if you are a big group and you want to do BBQ, the seating at the back isn’t very comfy. Authentic Korean food and we will be back soon :) Gamsahamnida!!🥰”

  “The Flame Grilled Beef BBQ Bibim is the best! The restaurant has a very warm and welcoming atmosphere! You will enjoy it when you go. Also, do not go without getting the Kimbab - Beef!”

  “I had such a lovely experience here, and I just want to say a special thank you to Nora/management. From the moment we arrived, she was incredibly warm, kind, and welcoming to both me and my friend. She made us feel so comfortable and genuinely cared for. All of the staff were really kind and attentive, which made the atmosphere even more enjoyable, but Nora especially stood out and made our visit unforgettable. I had been having quite a difficult day, and her kindness completely turned it around. She went above and beyond, and it truly meant so much to me. Nora’s warmth, attentiveness, and beautiful personality made this visit so special. She didn’t just provide great service, she truly made my day. Thank you again, Nora!💜”

  “We came here by accident seeking for food, curious and... this place is amazing! Food was great, the place was incredible and the service was so nice and lovely! When we came in the first thing we saw was BTS pictures on the wall - it's definitely place for Army! In that place I definitely felt like in Korea.. I highly recommend to come and try their KFC, kimchi jjigae and of course soju! We will definitely be back! 💜 폴란드 아미 💜”

  “Randomly stumbled across this restaurant while I was walking around the area, and I can honestly say I have tasted the best food here. It would be a crime to keep this place a secret. I am beyond grateful to have found the most authentic Korean food in London. Having been to Korea before, I truly appreciate how this spot brings back amazing memories and delivers next-level comfort. The Soondooboo Jigae blew me away from the very first bite. The rich, fresh seafood flavour, likely from the prawn broth, was unbelievable. After trying so many Korean restaurants around my neighbourhood, nothing even comes close to Bento Bab near Aldgate East station. Everyone deserves to experience food this good!!”

  “The staff in this restaurant is so wonderful and friendly. I went dining with 2 of my friends, with our aniteez. They surprised us with with the music of our favorite group and and took pictures of our aniteez. I would highly recommend going to this restaurant, even if it was just for the staff and atmosphere. It is a huge bonus that the food is also delicious. We ordered a variety of dishes to share and had more than enough food for the three of us. We are definitely xoming back here next time we are in London! ❤️”

  “We went there for the first time and it was a great experience. We've had chicken Bibimbab, Bento pumpkin and a chocolate pistachio cake for dessert (a bit too sweet to our taste, just ok). The food and the service were top. We were served by very nice, and very kind, and very fast man. He advised us from the beginning on what to get to have the best experience. My husband who is chef really enjoyed it as well. We will be back to try other dishes. They have quite a few vegetarian and even vegan options. There is a Korean music playing making the experience more authentic as well as nice and welcoming decoration. Definitely a place to try.”

  “Amazing lunch experience! Me and my whole family really loved and enjoyed our time here! The food was just so delicious and while we were eating we're already planning what we're gonna get when we come back 😆😆 We literally finished everything! We ate and left no crumbs 😋😋😼 My dad is a chef and he absolutely loved the food (and he is hard to please when it comes to food so that says a lot about how delicious the food is! 😉) DEFINITELY WORTH IT!!!! 💯 % RECOMMEND!!! The staff were very nice and helpful too! It was my first time having makguksu so I didn’t know how to prep and eat it, but one of the staff was very kind and he showed me how to prep it ☺️ My sister also noted how she loves the aesthetic and style of the place! It was very cozy and relaxing and very aesthetically pleasing with bits of South Korean culture displayed as decorations; it was very nice 😼👌 Overall, it was an absolutely fantastic lunch experience with my family and we got to enjoy delicious and authentic Korean food! 🇰🇷😋🫶🏼😼👌 Thank you so much to the staff!!! ps. I didn’t get to take any pictures because I was just ready to devour the food 😛😆 but my sister took a picture of her beef dolsot bibimbap!”

  “As someone who enjoys both K-dramas and Korean cuisine regularly, I was excited to try Bentobab. The food was delicious and the portions were generous, we couldn’t finish everything. The only drawback was the lingering food smell on my clothes, like i brought the kitchen home with me ..so improved ventilation would make the experience even better.”
