Came to Chingu Cafe with high hopes, but honestly left disappointed. For some reason, the online menu only showed a very limited selection — mostly fried chicken and bulgogi — and none of it looked particularly appetizing even from the start. When the food arrived, it was even more underwhelming. The bulgogi came in a sad-looking bento-style box, and unfortunately, the taste matched the presentation — forgettable. We also ordered fried chicken with some kind of sauce, hoping it would redeem the meal, but it didn’t help. The drinks were another letdown. We ordered Dilmah iced tea, which turned out to be mostly ice (about 70% ice cubes, 20% sugar, 9% water, and maybe 1% tea). For the price, it felt like a rip-off. It’s really unfortunate to see how much the quality has dropped. Chingu used to be a fun, unique place to enjoy Korean food, but this visit felt like the end of an era. Goodbye, Chingu.

This place is certainly a sanctuary for Korea-mania. The setup of the place is great. Embrace the spirit of Korea-fever. Either the dining place design or the interior, both are designed to satisfy K-Pop lovers. There are a couple of themes of dining tables with thick Korean ambience so you wont get bored even if you visit this frequently. Now, talk about the food. If you are a local resident, the price is fair. But if you come from Jakarta Greater, this restaurant provides cheaper price compare than similiar at Jakarta. They provide a good range of korean food. But the BBQ is the main star. Ordering food here is offering an unusual experience. You have to order via apps on the web. Cool. But the interface and user experience is far from great. I rather to order with conventional way.

I was here for the food, so the Korean/K-pop atmosphere ignored. Had smoked jajangmyeon and corn tea, also tried the egg rolls from the Katsuben, all for 77k, using discount from grab and got 53k. Smoked jajangmyeon was good and smoky, served in hot plate (diameter 15cm, filled to the brim). Egg rolls just so-so, the slices were too thick, imo (4 pieces, in photo I had eaten one before remember taking pic). Tea is just thin corn tea, my suggestion without sugar, otherwise you'd have sugar iced water. Came here at lunch time on weekday, and the dining room was empty. Lots and lots of online orders in and out, though. May come again to try other menu.

Ambience: 5/5 Taste: 3/5 Price 4/5 If you’re a Korean fan, you’re gonna love this restaurant’s theme. The ambience, playlist, and restaurant theme feels like you really are in Korea. They also have good variations of dishes. The problem with this restaurant is the taste, you can look at the quality of the Kimchi. Look at the cucumber and the radish kimchi, mushy and soggy. There’s no crisp texture.
