A bit disappointed after having great Korean in Stockholm.  The rice was on the hard side and the soup was both salty and cold.

Staff was nice and the food was served promptly.

In hindsight maybe the other place was the exception and this is what to expect for Asian food in Sweden.

Great food! I ordered bibimbap, the staff was very friendly and the interior is very minimalistic which suits the restaurant quite well! The service could be a bit better though. Maybe not the most authentic but good nonetheless. Overall good experience! Loved it!

The food took forever to arrive, and the bowl looked huge, but there was barely 3/7 of it filled with food. The total price was 181kr, and for that, I'd rather hit up a buffet. No need to settle for this. After walking almost 20k steps in Uppsala, seeing food like this is just disappointing. Feels like my life's falling apart.
I don’t know how this place got its rating. In our group’s eyes, it’s a big no-go.😩😩😩

One of the most unique interior designs in Uppsala. It’s not flashy but it is very unique.

Everything is solid brown color that surprisingly pleasant and calming

The whole place mixes the old with the new and has a touch screen for ordering at the big counter top where they also prepare the food

The dolsot bibimbap was amazing - great balance of flavour and spiciness; that like the design of the restaurant is minimalistic but packs a big punch for flavour
