This authentic Korean restaurant in NUS serves out decent Korean food at reasonable prices. Located in the spanking new and bustling NUS University Town, it is a popular lunch place for many students and it can get really packed during lunch hours.They serve a variety of Korean barbecued meat sets, rice, noodle and soup sets.

They serve a variety of Korean barbecued meat sets, rice, noodle and soup sets. This restaurant operates in a typical American school cafeteria style- First, grab a tray, then join the queue. As you move up the queue, grab drinks and/or appetizers (such as rice cakes) to go. (BTW they have quite a few interesting Korean can drinks available). Place your orders with the waiter and wait for your food order to arrive then pay. I realised the waitress at the counter was Korean only after attempting to order my set in Chinese and she didn’t really understand me. (Me so embarrassed!) So just order your desired meal set number in English. I had a Fish (mackerel) and Chicken BBQ meat combo set for $6.20 (after NUS student discount). I really thought it was worth it, especially since the portions of meat were really generous and big, served on a sizzling hot pan. The combo set also came with a bowl of rice, soup and two korean condiments (kim chi and seaweed). Taste-wise, the meat combo was really decent, somewhat above your ordinary food court stall standard. The mackerel was really fresh and the outer skin was grilled to crispy perfection, whereas the flesh inside remained soft and juicy. A slice of lemon is provided so you can squeeze some lemon juice to pour over the fresh white fish. The chicken was very well marinated and as a result, it was really tender and flavourful. The sauce is a typical Korean marinade sauce- a combination of sweet and spicy which tingles your tongue, definitely a delight with white rice.
This is definitely a great place to enjoy good korean food!
