After frequenting it and recommending it for over ten years I'm afraid to say I will ACTIVELY DISCOURAGE people from eating at MYUNG GA Korean restaurant on Kingly St in Soho.After overcharging our group (and we're all quite good at adding up!) the manager CALLED THE POLICE when we quibbled politely about the bill. Initially they refused to remove the over-charge (which we proved we were correct about by consulting the menu), so we said we'd just not-pay the service charge (optional by law anyway). I can't stress enough how measured, sober and polite we are, this was not a 'lads night out' rowdy group by a long shot. But anyway, the manager exploded at this point (not literally unfortunately) and ran screaming and shouting to pick up the phone and dialled 999 to summon the police, actual police, blue lights, nee-naw, 'now then now then' POLICE. (They never turned up obviously as they have genuine police work to do and don't need time wasters like Myung Ga management stopping them from doing their work).Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

We went to Myung Ga while spending a few days in London as we wanted to try something new. The location is great, and easy to find. We waited about 10 minutes for a table and then were shown to a table near the bar with a table top barbecue, which we wanted to try. The tables are close together, we were pretty much sharing ours with another pair of diners, but this was part and parcel of the friendly atmosphere and hands on approach to the meal!
We had a set meal for two as we weren't sure what everything was. The dishes came to the table seemingly at random, and the waitresses were happy to explain anything we asked about the food. The waitress also barbecued the beef on the (gas) table top barbecue. I'm not sure if you get to cook your own if you seem more competent with Korean cuisine than us! Everything was delicious except for the cold cabbage roll (Kimchi, I think) which was not to our taste! I would recommend this lovely restaurant to everyone. We would love to go again.
