Bibimbap (Soho)

• Bi Bim Bap is a very popular little restaurant tucked away on Soho&rsquo
• This restaurant is perfectly suited to a quick meal rather than a three course occasion
• S speciality are stone bowl rice dishes of the same name
• Typically consist of cooked rice mixed with oriental vegetables and topped with raw meats if requested
• The main courses are served up in large piping hot stone bowl which actual sizzle the whole way through the meal
• Present a feast to eyes with its vibrant colours from the many vegetables
• There is also a good number of starters on offer including Kimchi Pancake and Chives Mandoo which are also definitely worth a try
• S aim is to be affordable with the main course costing between £
• The main attraction with Bi Bam Bap is the authentic
• The food here is definitely better and tastier
• This restaurant is already very popular with queues forming out the door even before it opens and deservedly so
• The spicy pork version is the standout for me because they just seem to have nailed it texture wise (always tender
• Never chewy) but the chicken and beef bulgogi versions are also very respectable
• The gochujang (chili sauce) is really key here
• It's that the vegetables are occasionally just a tad too wet and prevent the rice from getting crispy in the stone bowl
• I think this is a great restaurant to take someone who is trying Korean perhaps for the first time
• I think it is also great for someone who loves Korean food
• The service was really friendly (sooo friendly)
• Only thing was that the food was way too hot at the start and me &
• The service is really good
• The spicy pork is a must try
• The portions are good and its really filling for the price you pay
• I was really keen on trying Bibimbap and I was very happy with it
• The quantities are very generous and the prices very reasonable
• Happy to recommend the most popular dishes on the menu for people like me who are still somewhat unfamiliar with the cuisine
• I loved the fact the food was served in a hot stone bowl
• It could do better with a bit more friendly and cheerful staff
• Korean food is hot right now in London
• Restaurants are popping up left
• Right and centre and people are really digging it
• On both separate occasions the super smiley staff were a perfect collaboration with the food
• A recent Sunday Roast in Stoke Newington was a disaster in terms of rock hard broccoli and roasties that had been warmed up in an igloo
• A rice based dish served in a sizzling hot stone bowl with vegetables
• The ingredients are raw and are cooked by the eater at the table
• It is a bowl of warm white rice often served with vegetables
• They tasted fresh and neither were greasy or stodgy
• The one recommendation I would make is to use more vegetables or chicken and less rice and I was full up very quickly
• We were also provided with two sauces
• Whilst both sauces were great additions to the dishes
• Their packaging was quite confusing since I
• Not even a mini Korean chocolate pancake to satisfy those with a sweet tooth
• Had we stuck with water the meal would have been just over £
• This is the place to go as service was great and our food came extremely quickly
• I'm visiting London with a friend and we still decided to give it a shot
• It comes along with a bowl of white rice
• I was left with a pretty lame dinner with a salty soup with European cabbage
• The waiter was already taking my bowl out
• I ordered Bi bim bap soya tofu with mixed vegetables and extra eggs on top which was delicious hot but also cold
• All dishes are served in a hot stone bowl so they remain hot
• I recommend the iced lemon tea which is refreshing in these summer months
• Awesome staff who are more than happy to help and will chase You down the street if you Leave anything behind
• Bibimbap is small chain of three restaurants that are scattered across the capital
• We went to the one in Soho which is spread out across two floors
• S a very casual restaurant with a food bar upstairs and a larger seating area in the basement
• It's a tiny place on Greek street that is more like a cafe than a restaurant
• It's an ideal place to catch up with friends over a steaming hot meal on a rainy day
• We all chose the Bibimbap with different kinds of meat
• They provide you with steps to choose the various elements and then assemble the meal accordingly
• I went for the chilly chicken option and was not disappointed
• It was packed with flavour and delicious
• The only thing missing was that the spice level was medium and I was hoping it to be spicier
• They provide you with chilli sauce and chilli powder to spice it up to your liking
• Perhaps ( my understanding through some other reviews I read on Zomato) the food is not authentic and mainly adapted to the western palate
• I would say the meal was an interesting one
• I tried out Bibimbap (Soho) with my brother and I was a little disappointed
• The bibimbap was bland it was cheaper than Koba so can't really complain
• Rather rushed to get rid of us as it was getting busy early on the night
• Korean food is the new trend this season apparently
• After quite a bit of mixing my beef was cooked and it was delicious
• I d still wait cos the food is so worth it
• The portion size was quite good
• We wanted to split the bill paying seperately and they were more than happy to help us do that
• Soho branch is cute and vibrant and was pretty packed despite it being Tuesday lunchtime
• This dish is a rice bowl topped with namul (sauté
• The setting is very simple
• Their walls are filled with posters of Korean pop stars and polaroid photos of customers
• Vegetables with all sorts of different marinades
• Simple and wholesome Korean food served in a hot stone pot with a perfect balance for meat and veg and flavours
• Vegetable was at a good balance with great seasoning
• S always a delight eating here and can see why there are always long queues
• The menu is simple but the food is done so well
• The service is quick and do try the kimchi pancakes
• It was probably the first time I was introduced to Korean food
• I went there with colleagues
• Decor is youthful with K Pop posters pasted on the wall again
• Just like how it was at trendy Seoul eateries
• One of my many favorites is the Korean style Bibimbap
• The bool go gi / bulgogi bibimbap was very tasty
• Completed with fried egg and topped with chili sauce (forgot the name of the other sauce inside the yellow tube)
• A bit rushing while eating (because they were going to close) (and the food was hot) but it didn't matter because the food was pleasing
• The hot stone bowl is great but will come back for the dumplings
• Quick to get a table with friendly service
• Highly recommend and price is worth the amount you receive
• Been meaning to get some Korean food for a while now and Bibimbap came up as a Korean restaurant with reasonably good reviews and so we decided to check it out
• There was no music playing when we were there it may have helped liven up the place if nothing else
• The anger was because this is one of the few restaurants with a reasonably good rating that simply didn't meet expectations
• We didn't order wrong as we asked the server to recommend their two best bibimbap and we were told to go for the beef and the spicy pork ones
• We did just that and both were as bland as the paint on their walls
• We ordered kimchi and the pork madoo (pan fried dumplings) and they were good but not something that will take us back there
• It's not that it was bad tasting it had no real taste at all
• Bibimbap in Soho is famous for the Korean dish of the same name
• Cor and overall ambience but that is because the focus is on the food (where it excels)
• It is rice topped with mixed vegetables
• The staffs are very nice and quick
• A bit disappointed with the fried chicken
• The batter is soggy not crispy at all
• The tables are a little small to fit in the big bowls
• I cannot associate it with any flavours
