  “This was our first time having Korean bbq. Staff were very kind and showed us how to do. Some cuts were better than the others and overall the food was good.”

  “I have eaten at this restaurant a few times over a couple of months but I had never tried their marinated crab until today. As I was staying away, I decided to order it to my house. I have had marinated crab before several times and normally in different restaurants the crabs come small with a soft shell. However, the crabs I got were hard with barely any meat inside of them, no matter how hard I tried to break it. The meat that did come out was rotten and stringy. The crab meat smelt horrid with a grey sort of colour to it. I liked this restaurant so for my own piece of mind, I want to believe it was just unfortunately a bad batch not checked over 💔. .”

  “Dining at Jin Go Gae offers a mixed bag of impressions, a place where the warmth of the staff outshines the culinary execution.The food, while generally enjoyable, struggles with consistency. The ban ban chicken disappoints because the flour-heavy batter leaves a lingering taste that overshadows the intended crispness. The grilled meats show potential but would benefit from deeper marination. The pork tastes bland, the beef is more successful and the chicken is the strongest dish overall. The atmosphere is serviceable but unremarkable. The restaurant accommodates large groups comfortably, making it suitable for dinner gatherings. The lighting is dim and may not appeal to everyone. The toilets are impressively clean and well maintained, which reflects positively on the establishment’s attention to hygiene.Where Jin Go Gae truly excels is in its service. The staff are personable, proactive and genuinely delightful. Their professionalism and warmth elevate the entire experience and leave a lasting impression. In summary, Jin Go Gae is a restaurant I would revisit because of the staff rather than the food. Their hospitality is exceptional, even if the kitchen needs a touch more finesse.”

  “Absolutely fantastic Korean BBQ! The quality of the meat was exceptional, especially the beef bulgogi and pork belly, and cooking everything over the charcoal grill made it even better. The staff were friendly, welcoming and happy to explain how everything worked. Great selection of authentic side dishes, generous portions and a brilliant atmosphere. Easily one of the best Korean BBQ restaurants I’ve been to. Highly recommended if you’re in New Malden – I’ll definitely be back!”

  “When I checked the restaurant online, I saw it only had a 4.1 rating, and many of the reviews complained about the food and service. But my friend told me to trust him because the flavours were just like in Korea. To be honest, after trying it, I think he was right. The food tasted very authentic, just like in Korea, and everything was good by UK standards. The service was also very nice.”

  “Glad to have lunch at this authentic Korean restaurant, and it has a lunch deal at £8.99. Parking is limited, but we were lucky to park right in front of the restaurant. Will definitely be back in the future.”

  “I had an amazing experience at this Korean BBQ restaurant. The meat was tender and flavourful, and the side dishes were fresh and well-balanced. The staff were attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, perfect for both friends and family gatherings. Highly recommend trying their marinated beef ribs bbq and the beef rib soup!”

  “Jin Go Gae is located in the heart of New Malden, an area home to over 20,000 Koreans. The restaurant serves traditional Korean dishes such as BBQ and fried chicken. While the taste may not be as authentic as in Seoul, it’s still better than many other options in the area. The prices are also reasonable.service is good and fast.”

  “I went to the place around 9:30pm but still felt really welcomed. The food was amazing, the best ox tail soup I have ever had. Definitely one of the best Korean restaurants I have been to in London. The ladies were the nicest people, the service made the food even better. A definitely 5 star place and will come back for the soup for sure.”
