Korean Fried Chicken Wing -
The best and fast seller over here. The chicken was fast grab by the customers. The chicken wing was well fried and marinated. It was sweet and savory, the meat was tender and flavorful.
Taste: 4/5

It wasn't a good japchae but it wasn't the worst. The japchae is lacking of some flavor as it was slightly bland. But the noodle was soft, smooth and chewy.
Taste: 1.25/5
Korean Pancake -
The pancake wasn't good. It was soggy and tasteless!!

The deokbokgee was awful according to my bro Olivier. It wasn't flavorful and it wasn't chewy enough.

Korean Ice Cream -
Get a ice cream to complete your meal. The ice cream is just pretty normal.
Taste: 1.5/5

The marinated spicy pork collar was just normal. The spiciness was just right but it was lacking of some flavor but it was still good.
Taste: 1.5/5
Bacon -
Pork Belly -
Signature Volcano Chicken -
The signature volcano chicken was the worst dish. It was just purely chilli oil, we tasted just chilli and nothing else. It wasn't flavorful and it tasted weird!!

The garlic chicken was the best meat dish out of all meat. The garlic chicken was fragrant, flavorful and addictive.

Food: 1.5/5
Ambiance: 1.5/5
Service: 4.5/5
Overall, The food quality wasn't good enough for me to be back again! But the service was excellent. The service staffs at I’m KIM Korean BBQ are friendly and helpful too. There's always roaming around and clear our dirty place fast. I have no problems getting their attention for service and they always approach us with a smile. The ambiance was kinda noisy as everyone is talking loudly.
They are not equip with air filter so be prepare to be get smoked.
