Asadal (Holborn)

• The dumplings and sticky chicken are amazing and the BBQ is defo a must to try
• It's not the cheapest place in the world but the waiters are very friendly
• There's a real buzzing atmosphere and the food is tasty and authentic
• When you walk down the stairs immediately you see why Asadal (Holborn) is a gem of a find
• With the decor perfectly combatting the fact that the restaurant is lacking natural light due to being completely underground
• My first real Korean BBQ experience and it is now sure to be a regular occasion
• Highlights of the meal for me were the Bul Go Gi and my first taste of Kimchi (it's taken me agesss
• The absolute kicker for me however was the Kan Poong Gi (deep fried chicken in a sweet
• Spicy marinade) which combined with the Kimchi was delicious and the speed in which this disappeared shows the consensus was widespread
• Overall a perfect meal for a big group who are looking to try a little bit of everything and considering we all only spent £
• ) the cost is very reasonable as well
• You can't really ever go wrong with Korean Bbq
• It's centrally located but the entrance is small a narrow stairway leading to a basement level
• The BBQ dishes come with an assortment of complimentary sides
• Luckily Asadal is close to Holborn Tube
• T understand a word they were saying it was obvious they were having a damn good time
• I walked through the door and down the staircase leading to the restaurant and I was greeted with a different but just as exciting buzz as found at street level
• T booked and this was Saturday night) and I soon had an excellent ice cold Korean Hite lager in my hand
• Moreish and freshly prepared with a delicious coating of sauce
• T disappoint as getting involved in making the dish by building lettuce rolls filled with the succulent beef and additional bean paste and onion was fun
• I can see why this is a hangout for those cool Korean kids when in London as it feels like a lot of care and attention has gone into making home style Korean food
• When food is made with love it shows and at Asadai it shines through
• I don't know why is it popular
• Don't think meat was marinaded properly
• You have to wait for long to be seated though there are many tables are empty there
• U also need to wait for long time to pay your bill though there are not many customers
• We told him that It is not comfortable but he told us to be tolerant
• Remember if You are westerners
