777 reviews. 4.5 stars. One very grateful Kimchi team.
We have reached a milestone that means a great deal to everyone at Kimchi. Our Google Business profile now has 777 customer reviews, and we want to take a moment to thank every person who has visited, eaten with us and shared their experience.
A review might take only a few minutes to write, but its impact lasts much longer.
It helps someone choose where to meet their friends. It helps a family find somewhere welcoming for dinner. It gives a student an idea for their next society meal. It may even convince someone to try Korean BBQ for the very first time.
Behind every number is a person, a table and a memory.
That is what makes 777 so special.
When we look at the number 777, we do not simply see a review count.
We see Korean BBQ grills heating up as friends gather around the table. We see bowls of ramen arriving after a long day of lectures. We see families sharing dishes, birthday groups taking photos and first-time diners deciding who gets to flip the meat.
We see people laughing, talking and trying new flavours together.
Some guests visit us for a quick meal. Others come to celebrate something special. Many return with new friends, relatives or housemates because they want them to share the same experience.
Kimchi has always been about more than serving food. Our goal is to create a warm and welcoming place where students, young professionals and local families can enjoy generous portions, authentic Korean flavours and time together.
Your reviews show us that these moments matter.
Every time you choose to eat at Kimchi, you are supporting a local restaurant and the people who work in it.
Every time you recommend us to a friend, tag us in a photo or leave a Google review, you help more people discover Korean food in Selly Oak.
That support can introduce a new diner to their first Korean BBQ. It can help someone find their new favourite ramen. It can turn a casual meal into a regular tradition between friends.
For a local restaurant, word of mouth means so much.
A five-star rating, a photo of your meal or a few honest sentences about your visit can help someone feel confident about booking a table. Your comments give future guests a real sense of what they can expect before they arrive.
So, to everyone who has taken the time to leave feedback, thank you.
