an honest review of Doobydobap's Mija Seoul

although we didn't particularly love how the food tasted, eating at doobydobap's mija seoul was such a dream and we would definitely come again for the ~vibes~ and to see what other dishes kevin, tina, and the team end up creating
to make a reservation (they go out fast!), go to: shor.by/mijaseoul

    update: kevin and tina are closing the restaurant (explanation in a video on her channel). very sad that the place is closing so soon but understand that it was a very hard decision for them to make and will always be grateful that we had the opportunity to dine there :)

    It seems more like a multiple course restaurant than edgy. It’s only edgy if you are edgy, it could be very laid back if the person going there was laid back. They didn’t advertise it falsely, the videos they show of the restaurant are exactly they same level of culinary craft I saw here. I’ve seen a handful of her videos from the restaurant, so I didnt expect it to be like her vlogs since I knew that it wasn’t a restaurant that embodied her vlogs but one she created to be something different from that.

It's just often disappointing to watch the reviews and too also feel a gap, the way her vibe is on social media her food feels off, off in a way like I know high end fancy restaurant exist and it's good that you want it but it too does not feel proper in that genre as most of the time people say it's not fulfilling or tasted good, espically given the high price

    I think this review is fair. Apologize that I can't remember, but there is this other very famous Michelin restaurant that sort of has a disclaimer saying they will make food you probably won't like. It's just because they want to do something so different that not everyone will enjoy it. I get the feeling of wanting to like something you just don't. I really enjoy Dooby's videos, but even though we will visit Korea soon her restaurant is 1) too far away from where will be 2) not exactly the experience I'm looking for. I think what they're doing is super awesome. Great review.

    This is my two cents: my partner and I dined at Mija Seoul in December 2024. We actually loved it! Not every dish was to our taste, but we expected that going in since it was a multi course tasting menu. The atmosphere was really warm and welcoming, and the staff was fantastic. I always find it interesting how people can have very different experiences of the same food! (Most of our dishes were different to yours, but, in general, I think it’s fair to say people have different tastes.) Anyway, I enjoyed the video and hearing about your experience! 😊

    Lol wtf just because he’s a chef doesn’t mean she “had” to go into fine dining. She could’ve just went into something that she’s more familiar with but instead created a bland and flat fine dining restaurant that’s only working out because she’s the face behind it. Just because Kevin has worked in fine dining before doesn’t mean he’s too good to cook non fine dining cuisine and there’s TONS of chefs who’ve done the same. This decision to go into fine dining wasn’t because of Kevin.

Did you do any research prior on the type of food they were serving or was this based on blind faith, since you were a fan of her channel? Just some background about you and your guest, have you guys ever dine at Thomas Keller French Laundry in CA? And what's you and your guest affiliation in culinary?Just curious. Thanks.

    Ohh Filipino ka HAHAHA magtatagalog na siguro ako and will give my straight opinion based on watching her countless vids. Siguro kaya rin nagsara yung restau niya dahil super busy ni Kevin and ewan ko feel ko masyado siyang busy sa pagv-vlog niya. Yung experience din ni Kevin is sanay talaga siya sa restau/food work kumpara kay Tina na let's say walang work experience. I think expected din yung pagsara nung restau kaya ayun. Tinagalog ko na baka atakihin ako nung mga diehard fans hahaha, well fan din naman ako pero this is my unbiased opinion.

    I genuinely don’t understand people saying that dooby decided to open a fine dining restaurant just because her BF has experience in fine dining. Just because he’s worked in fine dining doesn’t mean he’s only capable of making fine dining food and the decision was ultimately made by her since I’m sure she’s the main one funding the restaurant. There’s TONS of chefs who go working into fine dining and end up working at a more casual place. Also Dooby herself as a creator is so contradicting and completely out of touch I cannot stand some of her tone deaf videos. Mija seoul’s dishes look so pedestrian and it feels like they just rushed the opening just to keep the hype alive with her die hard fans. This place only works because of the celebrity behind the restaurant.

    Mija serves more traditional Korean style dishes with a “modern twist”, so it won’t be as flavorful or taste like western food. It’s more like natural flavors. With that being said, some of the dishes look very small. It’s probably not unique or amazing but it is a dooby experience.

  • @wifimeagan

    yes this is a good point - many korean dishes tend to be milder than western food so we were mostly comparing to the other meals we had in seoul (which were amazing!). so final take is that mija falls short in comparison to the food you can get throughout the city (other fine dining included) and also has such a high price tag for a pretty mediocre food experience

It's so different from what she usually does on her cooking chanel, that's all about hearty comforting meals...I wish the theme could've been like that along with a touch of fine dining. But your fall menu was just...absurd..I can tell that your pockets hurt after this meal and mine would've too!! I understand she's new to the business, but She should definitely improve her customer's experience. I mean the thin slice of onion with...vinegar? I don't know how to feel about this😂.
