“ The chicken was lovely. I could have had more flavor but it was better than I had thought. The restaurant has hole-in-the-wall vibe and it works for me. The staff is adorable. The service came out really quickly. I didn't like the portions but it was typical for London , I guess. Definitely needed a bit more salt though and I am not a salt person. ”
“ Fantastic food! Very small inside and got very busy before I left. I loved the pear cucumber kimchi. It was the best I've ever tasted! ”
“ The food was good, but not mind blowing! None of their dishes come with banchan. Unfortunately, they have to be added separately. Their beef bulgogi bibimbap was great! I highly recommend leaving a thin layer of rice in contact with the bowl while mixing for a crispy edge. When we arrived, it was pretty empty, but it filled up fast. Even when the restaurant was empty, the service was slow, but friendly. I think they were understaffed because it looked like only one person was waiting tables. ”
“ Likely best Korean food in town. Food 5 stars Service 5 stars Atmosohere 4 stars (it is a bit crowded and don't be surprised if you need to wait in line) Price is fair. ”
“ Lime Orange is a trendy and delicious Korean restaurant in Pimlico serving up authentic bibimbap, bulgogi, soups, and more Korean fare. It's a nicer dine-in restaurant but with a packed and somewhat loud ambiance. You may need a reservation if you're coming on a popular night. Food-wise, I got the pork bulgogi bibimbap, which was fantastic. The portion was large and satisfying, the veggies were delectable, and the the stone bowl came out piping hot (I had to wait many minutes for it to cool down!), leaving behind delightful crispy and charred rice at the bottom. Unfortunately, none of the mains come with banchan, so you'll need to order sides separately, which isn't very economical for a group of only one or two, but it works fine for a larger table. The bibimbap did come with miso soup, though, as well as chili sauce on the side. Overall a great meal. Pay a visit if you're looking for tasty Korean food in the mid-range price tier. ”
