Halal Reviews for Yori King's Cross

I chose this place based on its Google Maps rating, but unfortunately my experience was extremely disappointing. First of all, this is the first Korean BBQ restaurant I’ve ever been to where the side dishes (kimchi, bean sprouts, pickled radish) did not appear to be freely refilled. Considering the £50+ per person price point, this felt unreasonably stingy and completely out of line with standard Korean BBQ dining. We ordered the most expensive platter for two. No one helped us with the grilling, and while the portion size was acceptable, the quality and flavour of the meat were nothing special. What really ruined the experience was the complete lack of proper ventilation. The grill had no effective smoke extraction at all, and the smoke simply spread throughout the restaurant. The smell was overwhelming and irritating, making it very uncomfortable to dine there. To make things worse, I ordered a cocktail and was shocked to find the glass was chipped. It could have easily cut my lips. Neither the bartender nor the servers noticed or addressed this, which raises serious concerns about basic safety and attention to detail. Overall, this place is overpriced, poorly managed, and not worth the hype. I would not return, and I would not recommend it.

food is decent. authentic I would say. probably 80% to Seoul standard. cannot complain on that part. price is affordable in terms of central London. only thing really annoys me is the table is too tight and spacing is not that good. waiters hits ny chair couple times. Not their fault but the floor design is just too tight. friendly staff overall.

First time trying Korean BBQ. All the meat was good quality and great way to spend time and laugh with friends or family. Service was amazing as well. Did not have to ask for anything.

I visited Yori and tried the beef selection, and it was outstanding. The meat was fresh, tender, and full of flavor, with each cut prepared and cooked to perfection. The whole experience was truly enjoyable, and Yori is definitely one of the best places in London for authentic Korean barbecue. Highly recommended for all beef lovers!

Overall I would not go there again. Yori barbecue selection was fine to share for 2 people and it came with some small garnishes (3 types: onions, cucumber and radish), as well as some salad. It did not even come with rice or any sauces. Most of the meat was not marinated and the quality of the meat was basic, so it was chewy and did not have any special taste. They loaded the meat selection with cheap chicken but only put two shrimps. The place itself was not very clean - the chairs were sticky, and the table was stainy. The pot you cook on of course emits a lot of small droplets and smell and by the end of the evening you clothes will completely soak the smell. That could potentially be a nicer experience with the real charcoal but they only have electric pot. The staff were nice
