Visited this Korean restaurant with a bit of apprehension as to whether the Korean cuisine will taste good to our palate . But surprisingly it tasted quite nice . We had chicken fried rice and bibimpap . We had not ordered soup , but both these items are served with a small cup of soup . Complementary khimchis were also served in the beginning.After the food,they also serve complementary chinnamon tea which was quite tasty .Had hotteok as desert which is icecream on a doughnut like pastry . Tasted different and good . Ambience is quite elegant.Service is a bit slow . Parking is not a issue Overall we had an excellent lunch

It was a special occasion, so it had to be a special place. We went to Aeseo for dinner. The place being in Cone Nast Top 50 in Zomato site is one of the main reasons to pick it. To be on the safer side, we booked a table, but it wasn’t very crowded. I didn’t expect even that many people in a non-vegetarian restaurant on a Hindu festival. Initially, I wasn’t even sure whether the place would be open, but all my doubts were put to rest that day. Being in RA Puram, parking was never a problem, thanks to the wide roads and roadside parking. The place could easily be missed from the outside as it isn’t very bright, but inside it looked great. I discovered that day that there was even a K-pub there. We got comfortable seating — a four-seater table with a barbecue and exhaust. I ordered Soju immediately, as I had researched its availability beforehand, but I didn’t expect it to be that strong. I had only three shots, and that too I sipped slowly, but it still felt quite heavy. The sides that came before the main course were heavenly. I couldn’t figure out what was what, but everything tasted great. As for the food, we had to order dumplings since it was a Korean restaurant. We chose the shrimp dumplings, which were good. Our next order was Banban Chicken, a Korean-style fried chicken that I had recently been tempted to try after seeing pictures from a nearby restaurant. Being a fan of KFC, nothing is quite as finger-licking good as that, but I loved the sauce that came with this one. Finally, since it’s a Korean restaurant, we wanted to try at least one authentic dish, so we opted for the Beef Dolsot Bibimbap. I loved the presentation and the way it was mixed, but the burnt sticky rice wasn’t really to my palate. Even though I’ve been a bit critical about the food, I’d still give it four stars for the wholesome experience.

The food was great! The service was decent. I thought the servers could be a little more attentive and communicative. I ordered the lunch box and the servers got be starters which I thought was the food because it had similar dishes. They didn’t clarify that until I asked. They got me the bill and left without asking if I would pay in cash or card, resulting in me calling them again. Maybe they behaved this way because I was a solo diner. Overall a good experience food wise

This place has one of the best authentic korean food in the town. I really like the service and they are easy sweet. However the pork in this place has its good days and bad days. Just be careful thereon that.

Went a few times. Always left unfulfilled. Overhyped & pretentious with no real plus points. Perhaps it has good rating because people of Chennai are so short of options.

We saw a big rat running close to the ceiling. It came running down on the wall towards our table and ran back up and disappeared into the false ceiling
