A pleasant, bright, and welcoming Korean with plain seating and tables which make for a comfortable, informal atmosphere. There is an extensive choice of Korean dishes, and the food is delicious. There is a good range of dishes for vegetarians and vegans. I nice place to meet a friend or meet some mates. Good location.

The food was not good so we left full plates. Waiters did not even bother to ask if something was wrong. The ambience is not nice as well. I would not recommend the place.

I found Barn Ju as a good local restaurant to Holborn Station. I also read some reviews on it and opted to be sat downstairs. The staff were a bit surprised as I guess it made servicing us as bit more of a task as we were the only two down there, but they didn't grumble. The food was quick and really good, and the drinks were reasonable. Two courses, a bottled beer and a pint were about £44.

Food was lovely, full of flavour and reasonably priced. Sat on the ground floor which was okay; the downstairs may have been better for ambience. Staff were attentive. Absolutely will return.
