Great food. Very kind and gracious team working very hard! Will definitely be back. Good variety, value for money. Worth a visit. Highly recommended. Try it
Recommend booking on a Saturday night. Cosy place with nice interior, friendly staff and excellent food! We had Teokbokki which I don't always come across in other Korean restaurants, korean pancakes, kimchi, seafood soup, fried rice and Hite beer!
Really fun eating experience for Korean food aficionados and novices alike. Food and service were excellent. Wide variety of dishes and Korean and Western drink options.
This is a small restaurant and it has been busy each time we have been, so it is a good idea to book. The Korean barbecue is excellent and the very friendly staff are great at guiding you through the process. We will be back.
Overall food tasted good and service is good. Some dishes had slight variation to the traditional cooking and might not be to certain people's taste. Price is reasonable but bottled water is way overpriced!!
Small and friendly Korean restaurant tucked away in Rayners Park serving delicious authentic food. We always enjoyed their friendly service and love eating at Gaya.
Food is reasonable and tasty. The stuffs are working efficiently and providing a good service. I would recommend this place to both an experienced and a new to a Korean cousin.
good food, good service, good ambience - very happy to discover this little gem on my doorstep. Best Korean food I tried so far in London
Excellent food and delightful staff, who were extremely helpful in guiding us through a menu with which we were unfamiliar. Helpings are generous, flavours complex and interesting.
My first experience eating Korean BBQ and it was truly excellent. I would especially recommend the BBQ beef. Service was fantastic too. And all for such a reasonable price!
A friendly and welcoming restaurant offering a wide range of Korean food. Very popular with the local Korean families. Particularly recommend the table barbecue dishes.
The food is very tasty with lots of interesting spices. We ordered the set menu so we could try different things and found the portions very generous. The staff are extremely polite and kind. We look forward to returning with our children, I think they will particularly enjoy the table top BBQ.
This was a return visit for a meal out with friends. The food is great and the staff are helpful and friendly. We all had a lovely time. Highly recommended!
Excellent soup and appetizers. Delicious food and great service. Always a pleasure.
Really good place!! Small and nice, staff very well prepared, amazing kitchen and location! We spant such a lovely hours. Wide menu and good wuality food! Only thing, the stuff don't have a good english but they where relly happy so it didn' matter.
A small restaurant with excellent, well mannered members of staff. The facilities were clean and orderly. I had never had Korean before and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The food, also, was reasonably priced. In terms of the location, the venue is in close proximity from public transportation in both directions of Wimbledon and Sutton. In other words, I would definitely go there again. Well done Gaya.
Service was good. Food is authentic especially the sweet and sour pork and chicken ginseng soup that is the closest you can find to the real deal in Korea. Have visited a few times and will definitely keep coming back.
Always fresh and great quality Korean food have been coming for years. Changed ownership a couple years ago but hasn’t missed a beat. Always busy too.
Fantastic food and friendly service. This was my first time at Gaya and first experience of Korean food but won’t be my last of either!
Food took too long to arrive, and service was worst than expected... Food wise - it was just ok.. not sure if I should have gone elsewhere..
Service was great and the food was amazing. We had the set menu and everything was really delicious. Would definitely recommend as it’s great value and perfect for a family meal.
Excellent place! Really enjoyed the food and good value! They also give you a few complimentary accompaniments which is really a nice touch! Keep it up!
Gaya is one of our local restaurants serving typical Korean food. The food is great and the service is excellent. The tables have a barbecue in the middle and it is a real crowd (child-) pleaser to have some meat cooked on it, which can then be eaten wrapped in lettuce with spring onions.
we went for lunch but they didn't give us lunch set menu while other customers ordered lunch set. So we ordered from ordinary menu and it costed a lot for only lunch. They even didn't serve us tea while others were having as a service. We were really disappointed their services.
For some in our party, this was their first taste of Korean food - it will not be the last! Great food and really helpful, friendly and attentive staff who helped the novices with dish selection and the barbecue cooking.
Great food and prompt polite service as always. Good choice of starters and mains. Very reasonably priced. Shared starter, 2 mains a soft drink and glass of wine all for £36 including service.
Delicious food and attentive service in a neighbourhood restaurant. Ingredients, especially the vegetables, were fresh and tasty. My daughter (9 yrs) liked the BBQ arrangement in the centre of the table, which made sitting through a meal with Mum and Dad a little more interesting.
Great restaurant with wonderful food. This is a return visit and it is always a pleasure. Suitable for vegetarians as well as meat eaters. The sizzling plate is particularly impressive!
The food was really tasty and tasted authentic. We tried various Korean restaurants in the area and all over London and this is one of the best. The waiters could be a bit more friendly and smile sometimes, but maybe it was just too busy and they looked tired. Will definitely go back.
First time and definitely not our last time. We were well looked after as we had our 1year old daughter with us. Went for a set meal and thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was great and would highly recommend.
Really nice food! service was a bit slow for one of the dishes but other than that it was lovely! Homely korean food from kimchi to bulgogi!
I have been going to this restaurant for many years and have always had a positive experience. It has an informal atmosphere and friendly service from the waiters, and the food was fantastic.
Excellent meal. We really enjoyed it and the staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend the restaurant. We will definitely go back again. Thank you.
I had a really nice time and the food was quite good. Probably the second best Korean restaurant after Jin Go Gae in New Molden.
Nice people and quick service. The food was ok but not as good as we were expecting from the reviews. The salmon was dry and the egg fried rice a very unappetising grey colour.
Very good Korean food, excellent service, nice atmosphere relative to other Korean restaurants in New Malden area. Among our favourites: seafood pancake and Udon noodles.
Authentic Korean food at affordable price. The tasting menu (min for 2) is excellent if you want to try different starters + the typical meat barbecue at the table.
The place was busy but in an atmospheric way it was not over crowded or too loud. The staff were really friendly to my family and i. They were very patient and informative! The food was excellent! Great quality and great flavour. My parents had the bbq and my girlfriend and i, being vegetarian, had a bibimbap and spicy seafood hotpot pot. The staff showed us how to mix the bibimbap and saved us from ordering something which contained meat! This particularly impressed me as i had only mentioned over the phone that there were some vegetarians on our table and they remembered! I will definitely be coming here again if not regularly!
Food was spot on - fantastic quality & taste! The restaurant was packed and more guests were coming in non stop that the service was a bit slow. Nonetheless great restaurant! Will definitely continue to come back again & again.
The staff at the restaurant provided good service. There is a lovely and friendly atmosphere where you can bring the whole family for a meal (remember to book a table). Great food.
