Tohbang - Camden

Found this restaurant after getting off our bus in Clerkenwell. Food is very good and the staff are very accomodating. Gamjatang seems to be good for 4 people instead, but enjoyed everything overall.

If you want to eat real Korean food, this is the place to go! The menu was varied and all of them were delicious!! The owner and staff were friendly, so I had a pleasant stay

The staff are friendly and helpful. The decor is … well … the food is really good and authentic … come here for the food!! It would have been nice to have a way of drying one’s hands in the bathroom though. And the plastic table covers are utilitarian, if they lack in atmospheric charm. Back to the food! I must admit that I haven’t had gamja jorim as basically small fried potatoes, but they were still tasty. When I have made them or had them before, they’re typically braised, but perhaps this is to appease the locals. The tteokbokki was very good! I’ve been privileged to have some fantastic tteokbokki in the past and this was quite good and satisfying. Just the right level of spice. Available both traditional and vegetarian too. The yachae dolsot bibimbap came close to one I love at a restaurant that is sadly no longer there, so well done. Creating nostalgia is a great feat to pull off. The bokum udon had a good balance of beef to noodle to broth and was a pleaser. And for someone with a low spice tolerance, this particular guest still found it a perfect combination. The KFC was one would expect from Korean spicy-ish chicken and fit the bill. Definitely an authentic spot. If you know your Korean food, this certainly passes the mark.

Really delicious authentic Korean food. Decent prices as well especially for London! Sundubu jjigae (comes with rice) £12.5 4.8/5 Seafood pancake £9.5 4.5/5 ddokbaegi bulgogi £12.9 4/5 They also provided a free sweet potato appetiser which was very nice.

Got lunch to take away, food was great and would recommend, but it's very pricey for what I ordered. Maybe save it for a rare treat!
