About Took Bae Kee Restaurant

No frills, fast turns, and real Korean home cooking in the Perth CBD. Took Bae Kee operates as an unassuming diner where tables fill quickly for steaming pots and sizzle rather than lingering lounge ambience. Regulars head straight for the spicy soft tofu stew and whole ginseng chicken soup stuffed with rice, flanked by refillable banchan like seasoned bean sprouts and kimchi. Dishes arrive in minutes—hot, unadapted, and built for a proper workday recharge.

  • Unadapted Korean staples: Traditional recipes like whole ginseng chicken soup stuffed with rice and spicy stews arrive without westernized shortcuts.
  • Quick city pace: Food turns around in minutes, making it a reliable lunch stop for a quick, warming bowl of kimchi jjigae.
  • Generous banchan spread: Every main arrives with complimentary sides, from seasoned bean sprouts to crisp kimchi and steamed rice.

Why Diners Choose Took Bae Kee Restaurant

Authentic Korean comfort food, soul-warming stews, and generous shared plates in Perth CBD

  • Hearty Korean Comfort with Complimentary Banchan

    Traditional staples arrive with complimentary banchan side dishes like kimchi and seasoned bean sprouts, delivering satisfying Korean comfort at affordable prices.

    I love the banchan and steamed white rice that comes with every main dish.

  • Uncompromised Traditional Flavours

    Authentic recipes stay true to heritage cooking rather than toning down spice or seasoning for western palates, including traditional stuffed ginseng chicken soup.

    it felt authentic, not particularly tailored to a soft western palate, fairly priced, and full of flavor.

  • Soul-Soothing Stews on Cold Days

    Piping-hot kimchi jjigae and spicy seafood stews provide warming comfort, serving as an ideal restorative meal during chilly days.

    Kimchijijae hands down was really good and paired with the friend dumplings.. makes for a soulful lunch on a cold day!

    The flavors are so rich and authentic; I can confidently say this is the real taste of Korea right here in Perth.

  • Exceptional Value for Group Sharing

    Generous shared plates of sizzling barbecue, savory pancakes, and dumplings offer exceptional value for groups of friends and families dining together.

    Four people for lunch with drinks was $111.00. Amazing food and exceptional value for money too.

Before you head over

Practical advice on ordering, portioning, and dining pace at Took Bae Kee.

  • Trust standard spice levels

    Dishes arrive with genuine Korean spice levels that are not dialed back for mild palates. Unless you actively prefer high heat, stick to the standard seasoning rather than requesting extra spice.

  • Skip extra rice with ginseng chicken

    The ginseng chicken soup already comes traditionally stuffed with rice, so hold off on ordering extra steamed rice unless you are looking for an especially large carb portion.

  • Expect a brisk eat-and-leave pace

    The dining floor is compact with tight walkways and geared around quick turnaround rather than relaxed lingering. Plan on a brisk meal, especially during peak lunch and dinner rushes.
