White Tomato reviews
61I’m not sure what the situation is, but we came in under the impression it was fully licensed, they delivered the food and drinks menu. Placed our order, only for the staff to come back and say, “we can’t serve alcohol”. Ok, bye bye.
직원분들이 정말 친절하고
고기 맛도 맛있지만
사이드 메뉴 음식들이 특히 맛있습니다
All the staff were so welcoming and professional, the BBQ and stew was delicious. I loved all the banchan (side dishes) and sauces. Recommend 100%
I have walked past this place multiple times and finally decided to try it today and boy was that a great decision. The food was fantastic and the service was fast and the staff were very friendly.
Korean BBQ didnot disappoint, and location is central, right in the city too but there were drops of water leaking from ceiling that hit the table and head few times! Apart from that we enjoyed our meals.
Very Disappointing. The restaurant looks well set up and the food quality / quantity were fair for the price. But the gas bbq was nowhere near hot enough so the meat wouldn’t cook properly while the dipping sauces were minuscule in quantity (About a toothpaste cap of the tengnang/miso paste and half a thimble of the light soy based sauce). When I asked for more the non-Korean waiter poured straight soy sauce in the dish and didn’t appear to know what the difference between the sauces was. This looks like a place that was probably good once (or maybe we caught them on a bad day), but on our visit the students running the joint had no idea what they were doing and the results were very ordinary indeed.
Recommended by a friend. It is really average, service is rude and expressionless. Waiter trying to squeeze in every single dish on the table without being considerate. It is definitely overrated if this is not a understatement. Surprisingly the kfc is good, that's the only bonus.
Love white tomato. Their food is excellent and in particular the bbq. I would highly reccomend this to anyone who was looking to try Korean food for the first time or was looking for a fun, enjoyable and memorable experience.
Only thing I would advise people who have yet to experience Korean bbq is that if it is a busy night you may need to pay close attention to how your food is cooking as the staff may not be able to monitor it as closely as they would like.
Yea. Everything about this place. I love it. This is my go to when people come to Melbourne or I’m just looking for a really great dinner date. Love this place?
Omg the best Korean food! Fantastic customer service and love the ambience in the restaurant. K-pop music in the background so cool ️
When we approach the table to sit my wife accidentally knocked over the glass causing it to fall and break
Off course we apologised
When we ordered a bottle of wine we were refused by the waitress because apparently my wife was drunk
Make sure if you go there for dinner don’t break anything
The place is good and serve good food. But it will be great if the staff can help to cook instead of cooking by ourself. Even there’s not many customer and the staffs are free, they can offer themself to cook for us. Yet, their food still deserve a LIKE from us.
Best BBQ ever.
We had a range of food and it was perfect.
Great experience with my siblings. We were satisfied with our food, the service and the atmosphere. I will be back shortly. Keep up the great service everyone.
Expect for long food delivery time or non at all. They seems to forgot to do my order, while my two other mate got theirs. We chase it up half way and when we are leaving after 45 mins wait, the food still not ready even for take away. I received few sorrys but no compensation. From the waiter attitude it seems it is a fact that I have to accept and common practice. It was a really poor service.
Good food and nice friendly service while cooking. At the start they were a bit slow to take an order but otherwise a good place for Korean BBQ or chicken. The BBQ is a mesh grill type which I prefer over the plate type Koren BBQ's as it gives the meat a nice chat to it which tastes way better.
Can highly recommend the kimchi and cheese pancake! The portion sizes and quality are good here, and the staff are really friendly.
Food is fabulous, menu is great atmosphere is really good, but service is very disappointing. Takes forever to get the attention and considerable wait from order to delivery.
Fast service, good BBQ experience. Particularly really enjoyed the egg souffle like dish and calamari chips. Would go back again!
Great Korean restaurant - food was great, service was great and for the price, quantities were very generous.will return.
Really delicious food! The meat was amazing, there were lots of delicious sides and sauces which came with the order, and the service was very good. It's not cheap but you get what you pay for. Very fun and lively atmosphere.
Place was busy, they serve takeaways too. Some tables are placed on corners where it was cramped and hard for people to move. Food was pretty good, but my aunt found the meat cut was too thick for her to swallow. Pretty good for groups and price was reasonable. Recommend booking a table in advance to avoid disappointment as they get really packed during dinner time.
