Long story short, Miga is LEGENDARY. Please hear me out.

This place doesn’t give you the feeling of “Oh yeah the food is nice, I want to come back soon” but more of “I am more than willing to dwell in their pot of oxbone broth day and night” mood.

As a Korean who’s been living abroad for a decade and an enthusiastic home cook, I know how hard it is actually to make Korean food taste not just good but eyeopening. Our ingredients tend to taste overwhelming therefore it is always a matter of balancing out the flavours, which I assume is the trickiest part of all.

And the chefs here never fail to find the sweetest spot. Every dish is a flavour bomb yet it is swinging within the range of delicateness back and forth. I tend to sigh when the food is too good, and jokes aside I was sighing throughout my meal.

Needless to say the atmosphere is impeccable. The servers do not just serve you food but they cater to both your taste and mood. On my first visit one server noticed that I was opening soundhound app to catch the background music and they handed me a small piece of paper with the title and the singer. How considerate of them!

Also it might be worth mentioning their music choice. Ranging from the oldies but goodies from the 70s and 80s to contemporary trots from the 00s, dining there makes me feel like I’m at a karaoke with my grandma.

I would give 12 stars out of 5 if possible. Or maybe 100. Could be a million.

Went in to this with high anticipation. And it was fabulous. A family run business with a curated short menu.

The star of the show is the beef short rib. My god it packs a serious punch. The sauce is so flavoursome and the salad with dressing is really delicious. A perfect well balanced dish.

Also had the japchae, fried tofu and oxtail soup all of which was delicious.

Staff are proud of their work and very helpful.

An immaculate place.

Went for lunch and loved EVERYTHING about this place.

This place is bookable 28 days in advance, make sure you have a booking.

The menu does change between lunch and dinner and I think they suggested there were more changes coming. Be open minded and just enjoy whatever may be available. I was gutted there was no tartare but ready to come back to try more dishes for a dinner setting.

It’s a beautiful space, nice spaces between the tables which is rare in a London restaurant. The restaurant is currently BYOB was a great work.

The experience from start to finish was incredible. Every person who served us was friendly, kind and just great at the job.

All the dishes we ate were 5*. Between two we shared: prawns, cucumber kimchee, ox broth noodles, chicken, short rib rice dishes. I would recommend all of them but in particular the short rib and the noodles in broth.

Couldn’t fault this place, highly recommend and can’t wait to go back to try some new dishes!

Flawless experience in food and service. Tour de force of dishes, each exploding with flavor and visual appeal. I can’t rave about the duck or the rib enough. We gleefully ate each plate and found the praise the restaurant has received well deserved. The service we experienced was warm and prompt. Recommendations received were spot on. A must-visit restaurant for sure.

We enjoyed dining at Miga for lunch today. We ordered the fried chicken thighs (did not have too much meat though), enjoyed the mung bean cake, the short rib was delicious and the spinach side was fantastic! The ox bone broth was too bland for our liking and lacked flavour. Overall, decent experience.
