Jungyi Korean BBQ Restaurant Review: Authentic Korean Flavours hit Siglap
Jungyi Korean BBQ Review: Yes, folks, these guys used to be located at 727 East Coast Road, within the 3838 Eating Place coffeeshop, then known as Jungyi Korean Food where they offered a delightful selection of traditional Korean dishes in the heart of Siglap: it really was rather good. This eatery, run by a Korean lady with experience in Singapore’s restaurant scene, quickly became a favourite among locals seeking genuine Korean cuisine.
So maybe not a surprise that she has now opened up a new restaurant on the site of what was Starbucks, Siglap, and made it al la carte, plus the iconic Korean BBQ offering now.

Jungyi Korean BBQ Siglap: Ambience and Setting
We walked past it last night and it looked lovely, with an avenue of beautiful plants to this restaurant emitting a lovely glow. Situated in what was Starbucks, they now have al-fresco and indoor dining (indoor is where Jungyi Korean BBQ is due to the need for extractor fans. They have so much more space and now aircon, that when at 3838 Eating Place: so I’d suggest it is a more comfortable environment for diners now.
It was mobbed. We did ring both numbers in the public domain but neither is working, and on social media, it just shows them as closed: perhaps they are waiting for Google to make the big announcement.
Jungyi Korean BBQ Menu: Highlights
When at the Siglap hawker, Jungyi Korean Food boasted quite an extensive menu with over 15 dishes, catering to a variety of tastes. Steamed Egg, priced at S$4.90, which was a delicious and value-for-money option. For meat lovers, the Beef Bulgogi set at S$7.90 included rice and a selection of banchan, such as seaweed, kimchi, and tofu skin. The tender, thinly sliced beef with appetising side dishes was ever so good.
Diners praised Jungyi Korean Food for its authentic flavours and reasonable prices. The generous portions and complimentary side dishes added value to the meal when at the hawker. Many became regulars, drawn by the quality of dishes like kimchi, bibimbap, and beef bulgogi: here’s hoping Jungyi Korean BBQ goes the same way with a loyal following.

When at 3838 Eating House Google reviews gave them a 4.7 out of 5 across 138 Google Reviews. One Google Review stated: “Most probably, here is the best Korean coffee shop in Singapore. For the taste, much better than many other Korean restaurants.” And, another said: “Tried the Sundubu Jigae with beef set today for lunch.
