Simply Delicious
I have tried various recommended kimchi products but not one compares to Mr Kimchi.
Instead of the typically mushy content, Mr Kimchi contains large chunks of vegetables within a tasty spicy sauce.
Simply delicious.

The flavour this time was very bitter
The flavour this time was very bitter, it the usual Mr Kimchi order. And I am stuck with 2Kg of it.

Hi Mansoor,
Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear the flavour wasn't quite what you expected. This was from a freshly made batch that passed all our checks, but sometimes a piece may taste different early in fermentation.
Please check your inbox — we’d love to offer a replacement and share some tips to get the best taste experience. We truly appreciate your support and are always happy to help!
Kind Regards,
mr. kimchi team.

This time was excellent and fast delivery. But when I ordered some in December it did not come until January. Quality is just as good as ever.

Fantastic meal!
I went just before lunch time with my children. The food was delicious with excellent, friendly service. We had a corn dog and deep fried seaweed rolls, both of which were piping hot and just as I remember from Korea. Bulgogi rice came with a big portion of well seasoned and tender meat. We left as three very happy Koreans!

Reliable delivery, good kimchi
I've bought kimchi and some of their ready meals a few times now, always reliable on the delivery and the packaging is solid which is pretty important when you're sending kimchi. Most importantly the kimchi and the bulgogi taste really good and authentic. Happy to be a repeat customer.

I recently ordered from MR
I recently ordered from MR. KIMCHI via mrkimchi and was very impressed! Their authentic and fresh kimchi truly stands out, far better than supermarket alternatives. Delivery was prompt, even to remote areas, and everything was well-packaged. Generous portions with great communication throughout. Highly recommend for those wanting real Korean flavors. Four stars!

Made a great present
Bought as a present. It was delivered on the requested day, the recipient told me it was all beautifully packed, with 3 freeze packs to keep everything cold. I’d requested a jar of the red and the white kimchi which wasn’t available as a mixed pack on the website, and that was sent. I haven’t tried the food, but the recipient was happy and said it was excellent. We’re thinking of getting one delivered to us now for when we want a Mr Kimchi meal and don’t have the time to go to New Malden. Very happy, thankyou.

I regularly order from Mr Kimchi
I regularly order from Mr Kimchi! Tasty, real kimchi that is value for money. I usually buy the 2kg family bag, but also tried their white vegan kimchi jars and it's all so delicious! Delivery is also very good, always comes when they say they will deliver, kept nice and cool.
