How we read reviews →Cosy West Melbourne Korean diner famed for kimchi kalguksu, galbi-jjim and truly homemade kimchi.
A small, family-run Korean diner with a warm, homey feel. chef and owners greet regulars personally, though the tight dining room fills up fast at peak times.
Homemade, properly fermented kimchi; unlimited banchan refills; stone-bowl service for galbi tang; a surprisingly strong coffee and black sesame latte menu for a Korean restaurant.
Strongly praised for authenticity by Korean reviewers themselves, several writing in Korean to say it's the best Korean food they've found in Melbourne and tastes like home.
Mid-range for the portions (soups around $20-30), with a 10% surcharge on weekend orders that draws some criticism, though most reviewers say the quality justifies the price.
