| - I've been eating at Ga Bin since it opened way back when. I've tried a variety of dishes from here, but my usual go-to dishes are the bulgogi-style soup or the mild rice cakes with beef. Quality of food is still just as good now as it was when it first started up. Definite thumbs up for the authentic Korean flavours they provide.
In terms of service, I feel that they are lacking compared to the good service they once had. Don't get me wrong; service is great when it's empty, like maybe on a weekday, but when it gets super busy, it's a different story.
For example, I went with two of my friends on a Saturday night around 7ish. It was pretty much a full house with only two servers. We were seated and given tea. We decided on dishes pretty quickly but had to wait quite a while before our orders were taken. After multiple failed attempts of waving one of the servers down, one finally came to us and took our orders. The time for the main dishes to arrive was quite long but understandable, as it was really busy. However, what was not understandable was when our main dishes finally arrived, we had not even been given our utensils nor the side dishes yet. I felt like our table especially was a neglected because we were the farthest table from the kitchen and main counter. The food was delicious though (because I was super hungry), but I was a little disappointed that my dish was warm and not freshly hot, as if it had been sitting there for a while before it was brought to me.
The main thing is that they need more than two servers when it's a full house with additional people waiting to be seated. Nothing hurts a delicious eating experience more than disappointing service! Here's to hoping that Ga Bin will hire more staff soon.
