Persimmon Tree - Victoria

I’m rounding this one up to a 5, because the meal was excellent, but I think this is more of a 4.5. The food was great. It was our first time here so we tried a few things. The fried dumplings were exactly what you’d expect, crispy, flavourful and hot. The Bulgogi Bibim Bab was easily the highlight, wonderful flavours throughout the entire dish. Will be returning just for that. The short ribs were solid, but quite pricey at $36 for the meal. Crème brûlée was fantastic. Tried Korean beer (Cass) and Soju for the first time, quite enjoyed both. The only thing keeping this spot from a true 5 in my mind was the ambience. Bright and white lights, my nightmare at a dinner spot lol. Disposable, take out chopsticks are a little disappointing when you’re eating a $40 entree. Thankfully these are pretty easily fixable problems. Service was great, our server was very friendly. Will be returning for the food absolutely, but hopefully they take some steps to add some more ambience into the room. Will see you again!

Fabulous modern Korean restaurant served my east Asian food crave. First visit and at lunch time from how quick the place gets packed up tells me it’s a popular place for locals. Family and children are welcome with child seats available. There are booths and center tables. Ample natural light with friendly waitresses, and the owner is a wonderful and kind lady. I ordered veggie bibimbap and jasmine tea. For lunch it came with a bowl of soup. The bibimbap is delicious and you may add however amount of spicy red sauce. A slight disappointment but this may be for safety concern is that the stone pot isn’t hot enough to harden up the rice. Overall, pretty satisfied and will definitely return for more.

I ordered stir fried yam noodle. It came in a generous portion. The dish was pretty decent. The price was also quite reasonable. The service was great. The waitress was all smiling and cheerful, she really made our dining experience very pleasant.

Everything you'd expect from a korean bbq restaurant. Great service, excellent food. Right in the neighborhood! We'll be back. Thank you!
