Great food and prices. Got the gamjatang, soondubu, and grilled mackerel. The soondubu was my fav as it tasted homemade. Will go back!
Located Inside the mall. I’m very surprised found this authentic Korean cuisine spot. The Owner is Korean couples. The lady she was super sweet and cooked very well!! I like their cold noodles which is not sweet broth. Also their soybean noodles very authentic. An amazing hidden gem. Next time will try their LA Galbi and fried Mackerel . I love their tea as well.

The Semi Korean & Japanese Restaurant, nestled in the food court of Newin Centre Mall, has long been a local favorite, even after the pandemic-induced shutdowns. This eatery, run by an elderly Korean couple, continues to serve up authentic and delicious Korean classics, such as Soondubu, Gamjatang, and Jjajangmyun, as well as Donkatsu and Spicy stir-fried pork. Despite the somewhat run-down food court and the need to retrieve keys for the washrooms, the seating area remains open for use. While the elderly couple may be slower in serving, the food is well worth the wait, with many regulars attesting to its quality. Customers are advised to be patient, clean up after themselves, and try the #28 Sweet Pork Bone Soup and the grilled mackerel, if they're not afraid to navigate the fish bones. With reasonable prices and adequate serving sizes, this cash-only establishment is a hidden gem worth visiting.
