## What diners say

Mikey Davies ★★★★★

Love this spot 🇰🇷 Recently awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand and fully deserving of it. Proper Korean BBQ packed with flavour. We went with our kids aged 5 and 2 and they absolutely loved it. The veg dumplings were a big hit 🥟, the Korean fried chicken in a soy dressing was a winner with the kids too 🍗, the cold noodles were super fresh, and the BBQ with the homemade sauces and punchy kimchi 🥬 was outstanding. Great atmosphere, relaxed but still feels special. We’ll definitely be back. 🔥🥢🇰🇷🥟🍗🥬

Had a fantastic experience at Ssam Ssam! The Korean BBQ was definitely the highlight. The meat was fresh, well-marinated, and great quality. The side dishes were generous and complemented the BBQ perfectly. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, even helping with the grilling, which made the experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for authentic Korean BBQ in London, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I’ll definitely be back!

4.9 rating on Google Maps and a Michelin Bib Gourmand to boot. After eating here, I can see why You have to choose either a bbq or non bbq table. My tip is to go for the KBBQ. The meats are all so flavoursome. We supplemented our meat platter with mandu (Korean version of gyoza dumplings), yuk hwe (beef tartare with pear), grilled black cod, fried chicken and banchan We’re relatively new to Korean BBQ, so it was nice to have friendly staff to guide us We’ll be back as there are other dishes I would like to try on the menu

Really enjoyed our recent visits. Visited Ssam Ssam a year ago before a trip top Korea and the staff were engaging and helpful. Then came back again to revisit the flavours of Korea and had another great experience. Tasty, high quality food, friendly, helpful staff. Next time will come as.a bigger group so we can try more things on the menu!
