    Waiter was dismissive and outright rude , he kept forgetting to bring things ( soy, water, bill etc) we had to keep reminding him , it was unbelievable. They didn't have 2 out of the 4 pre-theatre starter options and had not given alternatives. Food was bland when it arrived An outright appalling experience.

    Super tasty food as always, the starters offer the best choice and the main curries are tasty if a tad dry.

    Food was great and the restaurant looks very smart. Went for pre-theatre meal as its 3 min walk to Saddlers Wells theatre. Great set menu 2 courses for £10. Can't fault it!

    I've only visited Bibigo once so I have no idea if food is normally better but on this visit we thought the food was pretty average. The bulgogi was dry and overdone, the bibimbap didn't have a lot of flavour, the japchae noodles were too broken and didn't feel like we were eating noodles. I've definitely had better Korean food in central London. The service staff were friendly. In terms of ambiance, the decor was nice was the restaurant was really loud. I could hear chairs being moved really loudly from across the restaurant. It was fine on the night but I can imagine it to be really hard to hear each other if the restaurant was busier. I think the high ceiling makes any sound resonate really loudly.

    Very good service and tasty food. Visited a few times, they've since taken menboong (Korean drink) off the drinks menu, gutted but probably for the best As I'm sure a few scene missing moments happened on that stuff. Nonetheless, a more sober affair this time as I returned with a friend visiting from France and still received the great levels of quality food and service in the stylish surroundings of Bibigo as I had ob my previous visits. Just as a heads up, the phone signal is terrible inside so arrange with friends before your get there! They do offer free decent Wi-Fi inside though.

    Amazing food, good value but slow service and we had a round of drinks go missing. I'd still happily go back, though!

    The main kimchi stew was good but the other dishes, dumplings, calamari and chicken (all these 3 starters) were not good. The dumplings were very average and not freshly cooked. The calamari and chicken was mainly batter and not very hot. These dishes were poor and overpriced for the tiny portions. I would have complained or sent back those dishes but I didn't want to embarrass my friend.
