Review highlights

Based on 399 reviews

Korean Banban Chicken Batam is widely praised for its authentic Korean flavors, particularly its fried chicken, which is described as crispy, juicy, and well-seasoned without being overpowering. Popular menu items such as banban chicken, cheese balls, and various traditional Korean dishes contribute to a diverse and satisfying dining experience. The restaurant exudes a cozy and genuine Korean atmosphere, often appreciated for its homely vibe and friendly staff. However, common feedback highlights the open-air setting without air conditioning and older furniture, which may affect comfort. Service quality appears inconsistent, with occasional long wait times and slower service noted by some patrons. Despite these service and ambiance considerations, the food quality and warm hospitality consistently draw positive remarks, making Korean Banban Chicken a favored spot for those seeking authentic Korean comfort food in Batam.

The chicken is very delicious! rose topokki is also quite good, kimbab is delicious when dipped in topokki sauce!! there are many menu options available and I think I’ll come back to try various other menus. (the waiting time is a bit long, if u come and chit chat with ur friends it might not be noticeable, but if u’re very hungry it might be a problem)

BanBan Chicken is a hidden gem if you’re craving authentic Korean comfort food. The dishes are served straight by korean soul, which really adds to the homely and genuine Korean vibe. Their fried chicken is the highlight, it's light, crispy, juicy, and not overly salty, served hot and very satisfying. The yangnyeom version leans sweeter with a gentle kick, perfect if you enjoy sauced fried chicken. Beyond chicken, the menu is surprisingly well-rounded. The sundubu jiggae is clean, warming, and full of fresh seafood without any fishy taste, while the bulgogi kimbap is generously filled and well balanced with pickled radish. Snacks like goguma cheese balls, gun mandu, and hotteok make great add-ons and feel just like street food in Korea. The semi-outdoor seating gives it a casual, laid-back feel. Overall, a comforting spot for honest Korean meals that keep you coming back.

A good spot if you’re craving Korean food. Open space dining area with some garden view, you can come after playing golf beside. The taste of the food feels right, reasonable price. They say it's authentic Korean food. Definitely would come back to try another menu.

I lived in Korea for a couple of years and since moving back to Indonesia I haven’t been able to find one that nails the texture of Korean fried chicken, until now. This place is legit!
