I wouldn't go back not because the food was horrid or anything but they can do better. A lot of korean restos are opening because they are in demand now a days especially at banawe. Upgrade the food and the interior of the shop and maybe i'll give it a try again.

We went here earlier ( 12mn i think).The waitress is friendly and cooperative while the food is quite ok, not so bad.We were already eating our main dish while waiting for our samgyupsal and crepe when suddenly a lady came in ( i assume its the owner), she went straight to the kitchen and yells at her staff. The kitchen door was open so me and my partner hears every word she says " konti lang bigay mong lettuce" " sabi ko konti lang bigay mong lettuce tuloy tuloy ka pa". We lose our appetite while hearing what she says. Really unprofessional, she should have just closed the kitchen door and talk calmly with her staffs.Very disappointing.

Would’ve rated it a 5 only if ventilation was better and staff were not shouting at each other like there’s no customer in the restaurant.. Anyways, I have to say, for a restaurant not claiming to be a Korean resto, they serve reaaally good sundubu jiggae - better than other Korean restos I’ve tried. They don’t skimp on the clams, egg and tofu. Their tempura, although Filipino style, was good too. The caesar salad, on the other hand, had more croutons, bacon bits and parmesan than lettuce. Strange. Orders took a while to be served but they looked freshly prepared when they came. We’ll probably go back to try other dishes.

A small but nice place to go when you're craving for Korean and Japanese food. The good thing also, it's just near our home :) We ordered for SpicyChicken and Gyu Saikorodon. We thought to have a salad so we tried their Caesar Salad and all of this taste really good :-) My hubby enjoyed the free kimchi but I'm not a fan of it. For drinks, I chose Choco Milk Shake and I loved it! Good job!

We always go for a pet- friendly restaurant and it's good to find out that Cafe Monaco is one.Our baby shih tzu enjoyed the beef stew that I shared with her. The place is quiet and you can enjoy good conservations with your loved ones while you eat.

This is probably one of my favorite korean restaurants that offers cheap and quality food. This store is located along Banawe Ave a slight diagonal from BDO. It is hard to find in the morning since it is not well lit and the signage of the store is small. During nighttime, it is easier to see the store because there is a very bright light along the borders of the store.It is also hard to find a parking space especially when the store is packed with people. The guard however would sometimes guide you where to park your car thou. 😂Upon entering the store, you will noticed that the place is now newly renovated and turned into a well lit store and the atmosphere is cooler since they have installed/fixed a new air conditioning system. Good job!The servers were also very friendly and would recommend and explain the dishes which is hard to understand since it is spelled in Korean haha. There also serve condiments of kimchi and radish slices. I especially like the kimchi in this store making us buy 1kg of kimchi worth around 230php. It is worth it! 😊 Now on to the food. Bibimbap (150php) was served in a big black/hotpot/clay bowl. There were a lot of different vegetables, meat and a sunny side up egg. You can opt to choose between spicy and mild spicy in your bibimbap. I prefer spicy bibimbap thou. Haha. Insider tip: you must mix your bibimbap immediately upon receiving your meal. My second dish was ramen (130php). It is served in a big bowl with instant noodles, a big of seaweed and a few slides of carrots. You can also choose between mild and spicy. I would prefer the ramen to be mild in spicy level since you will have your bibimbap as spicy already haha.

Since 2012, my family and I eat here around night time for family bonding, and the food here is the reason why we visit this place until now. Their Pota Pocket is delicious, their Fruit Crepe with Ice Cream takes you to heaven, and most of all, their new Korean Spicy Chicken is so spicy that you want to eat more. It is a great place and the prices are just right for your wallet. I suggest people going to this place. Also, thank you for your service these past years of eating in your place.

We've been here twice.I was impressed at first, their gyu nikuyakidon was recommendable. I liked their kimchi as free side dish(refillable!!!!). We tried ramen at our second time, I was so disappointed, it is comparable to instant noodles that you can buy from a grocery store.

Had a great time eating alone (during my office break). Their serving is big with a very affordable price. They serve mostly Korean cuisine, and I can honestly say that the taste of each dish I ordered (Bibimbap and Ramen) is reaaaally good for the value of it. They even serve free Kimchi and sweet, pickled raddish on the side. I just think they need to push on the marketing side of business. They lack promotions that can earn them a lot of customers, since they are a fairly good restaurant, from my observation :)
