This is my favourite restaraunt in Adelaide. Great meat and as much as you would like to eat? You can’t beat GONG!

Always a buzz walking in, and rightly so. The staff are always walking around and collecting dishes and taking orders, providing a smooth operation throughout the night.
The quality a meat is good and cooking on the wonderful BBQ is always a delight.

Great value for the money as long as you're quick and hungry, recommend getting the all you can eat option and ordering beef and lamb as they cook the quickest and taste amazing, quicker cook time equals more skewers. Peach and Lychee Soju along with a Cass beer go well with the meal, bring family or friends along for the experience.

Skewers were fine and well portioned. Loved the innards and lambs. The seafood balls were a miss but squid very nice. Pancakes and fried rice came in small tasty portions and rice cakes were delicious. The garlic flowers were really nice but side dishes disappointing for a Korean restaurant Surprisingly no kimchi were offered as side dish but available as fried rice in an Korean restaurant. The meats could have done with some simple sauces eg vinegar honey, peanut or garlic ginger or even just pour it yourself bbq sauce just to vary the taste a little. Service staff were busy but very attentive. Food came quickly. Buffet was ok value for a fairly limited variety (no mushrooms as a side) and could’ve come with some simple flavored drink eg lemon water or grape juice. 90 minutes ok for eats but no much time for chit chat. They actually closed further ordering at 90 minutes but they allowed us 30 minutes to finish what we were cooking so that was really nice. Would come again.

I think the food was great and good portion. Plus the way of grill the meat was interesting, as first I didn't know how to use it so I burn my skewer. Others than that everything else was fine, the kimchi pancake was very crispy and taste delicious.

Called to make a booking but they insisted that I had to book online. Could not load booking page from Insta or the link they provided. When I finally managed to get one page to load, it kept timing out trying to load the page to enter my payment details. Will just have to take my business elsewhere.

One of the worst korean bbq experiences in terms of taste and quality of the food. The positive is customer service- waitresses we're positive and okay with us dining in last minute unlike other places

Hands down 10/10 my FAVOURITE restaurant in Adelaide, We always get buffet and it is very great value for money. The meat has great flavour and it’s very easy to cook and the kimchi fried rice is sooo delicious. My partner and I have never experienced any issues with staff or service and we always get what we asked for, We go here almost every fortnight and I could never get enough of it. 1000/10

Generally, the food was great and atmosphere was alright, there is no so much of smoke in the resaurant. We ordered buffet which costs $37.50 per person, which i think it is reasonable for 90mins duration. The beer costs $12-13 per glass, which i would consider to be a bit expensive. I recommend people who would like BBQ buffett to go there, but not to order many drinks.

Great food and service.
We actually came a but lat (9: 30pm) but they still welcomed us.
We just landed a bit late and we had great first meal in Adelaide.
Staff were so friendly and food was all good.
Want to visit again before we leave if we can.

I always wanted to try this place, but kinda disappointed. We ordered heaps of skewers, but the cooking process was a bit different to a classic korean bbq place. It was very difficult to cook, and most of the food was always half burnt. Probably was just not used to this type of cooking.

I like the lamb marinated meats that gave a slight middle eastern/indian flavour to it while still retaining mostly korean/chinese flavours. The automated turning meat skewers are excellent, tasty, quick to cook.

Great customer service experience! We went to dine on a weeknight. You can experience unlimited BBQ for a limited 90 mins with fresh ingredients!

The food is great and reasonably priced. As it's pretty small you normally have to book to get in.

Worst value of Korean BBQ in my life.
We didn't pick buffet but I ordered a lot.
I order 5 chives, they served me 3 first and I was shocked. I asked the waitress how many gram is one serve. She asked the kitchen and said they don't know. And then served me the last 2 serve of chives. It was even worst. It was less than one bite. We didn't eat any of it and we paid for it.

Nice and special Korean style restaurant. Went for buffet. The buffet menu includes meat, veg, seafood and Korean style main course. Can order a few times with either same or different food. I tried nearly everything on the buffet menu and they all taste good. If you don't want buffet, there is another menu which includes more dishes that you can order as you like. Small dishes of vegetables are provided for free as soon as your order is taken. Parking available by roadside and streets nearby.

Being able to cook straight on charcoal bbq without all the smoke going everywhere is the best bit to this style of bbq. They’ve also polished up their presentation since I last went about 12 months ago. Stack tray holders to food & container to hold the use sticks adds to a very experience look to the the restaurant. Since there were only 3 of us, didn’t go for the all you can eat buffet, which cost about $40 / head. Total bill for us any $100 only

Had a buffet here, what you pay is the experience. It would be nice if there are more choices in the menu. Pork is not included in the buffet. Some of the skewer are unmarinated if not most of it. What i love here is lamb ribs and chicken wings
