Since finding out about Newport food market in May this year, I've been visiting once every month and I always order from K-Way! I missed them in July when they were closed but I made up for it on my last visit yesterday!! All pictures uploaded are from meals ordered on 2 visits (I was too eager on one of the visits and forgot to immortalise the moment with a pic 😅) The Korean couple who run the place clearly know their cuisine and are lovely and welcoming! On our latest visit yesterday the owner played songs from the Netflix movie K-pop demon hunters for one of the kids in our party as she loves it. She was disappointed that they did not have Ramyeon on offer but the food ordered was eaten with pleasure and gusto! On all my visits I've ordered kimchi fried rice with a fried egg as this simple dish is my favourite! It's as simple as stir frying some rice with kimchi (Korean fermented cabbage) but it hits the spot every time! I've tried to replicate it at home but K-Way are obviously the experts! The kids tried it yesterday and loved it too but after a few bites it was a bit spicy for their little mouths! I wished you'd do a version with some of your yummy chicken meat as I don't eat beef wink wink 😉 I love their Tteokbokki (rice cakes cooked in a spicy, sweet and savoury sauce). I've ordered it twice now over 2 visits and it is so warming and I love the chewyness of the rice cakes. The kids have tried it yesterday and liked it too albeit a bit spicy for them. I need to have it again on a wintery day to warm myself with some gimbap to dip in!! I loooove their gimbap! These are nori sheets (seaweed) rolled with a filing of rice and cooked protein and vegetables (nothing like the Japanese sushi). We ordered a tuna gimbap and a prawns one yesterday. My favourite is the tuna! I dipped some in the tteokbokki sauce of course and it made it even tastier!! Their corn dogs are the best I have tried so far! I've had the mozzarella with potato dice in the batter, sprinkled with sugar and ketchup 🤤. Yesterday we tried the chicken sausage corn dog with ketchup and a mozzarella one with sweet chilli sauce on top, both without the potato dice in the batter and they were both delicious. Everyone loved the cheese pull! Their Bibimbap is also tasty (it's in my top 5) it's a bowl of rice with various vegetables and some gochujang paste. You should mix it all together to enjoy all the flavours in one bite, yum 😋 we had the egg bibimbap yesterday, with a fried egg and seasoned carrots, courgettes, mushrooms and bean sprouts. The kids enjoyed it before we mix it all with the gochujang paste, as their spice tolerance was already reached that day :D On my first visit in May I had kimchi fried rice and a side of chicken skewers with a buldak sauce 🤤 The chicken was cooked perfectly and tender! The buldak sauce is good if you can handle the heat! Yesterday we ordered japchae, a dish of glass noodles with vegetables. This was a nice dish but the black pepper was overpowering and made it spicy for the kids. I will definitely try it again and see if the pepper will be predominant again. The only dishes I haven't tried so far are the beef dishes but one of my friends had the kimchi fried rice with beef and liked it. All in all I love this place and will definitely be coming back for my Korean food craving and to try dishes i haven't ordered yet!! It's one of the tastiest and healthiest cuisine in the world, always have a good balance of carbs, protein and vegetables! They cater for vegetarian, kids friendly and the meat is Halal. I highly recommend this place!

Came to Newport market to try a different food vendor I’ve been wanting to try for ages, my husband wanted to try tteokbokki so we ordered one to try. Was absolutely amazing and was our favorite thing we had from the whole market! We then decided to get a corn dog from here which was also so tasty and seemed totally homemade. The balance of sweet, salty and spicy in both the dishes was perfect. The guy was also super friendly and chatted to us about Korean food 😊 deffo coming back to try more

I came here after reading the reviews. I like authentic Korean food and it didn’t disappoint. I ordered quite a few and am only managing to eat the gimbap and fried chicken so far. They taste beautiful. Will definitely come back whenever I come back to Newport The owner couple are very friendly as well. 👍

Absolute knock out food stall! Ordering is quick and easy, the owners are kind and helpful, and the food is delicious. I ordered a beef gimbap and it was a perfectly balanced meal for a long day out! I’ll be bringing my family soon!

The best, most authentic Korean food you can find in Wales by far! I was pleasantly surprised that they had become a part of the Bonjuk franchise, as I had known them as K-Way Newport before. The food and service are both excellent, and the owner was so kind and thoughtful. The bibimbap, tteokbokki, and fried chicken were made to perfection, and I will make sure to come back whenever I can! 너무 맛있게 잘 먹었습니다~🙇‍♀️

The service was amazing. The staff were really welcoming and friendly. The food seems really authentic. We tried the bibimbap, kimchi fried rice and a mozzarella corn dog. A great halal option in the market.

Been here a couple of times now and honestly the food is delicious. The owners are really friendly and welcoming. Great service! There’s only a couple of seats there but you can order food and go sit on a table in the main market hall. This time I had japchae and one of the chicken skewers. Both delicious. The beef was super tender and flavourful and so was the chicken. Highly recommended if you’re in the area!

I'm Korean and have been to here twice so far. I can guarantee that this small restaurant feeds you the authentic Korean food. It tastes exactly same what I had in Korea. If you are planning to go to Korea, I recommend you try it here beforehand.

Ordered my self and my wife two of the korn-dogs. Will probably now be one of our regular snacks, was so good, my wife took one followed very quickly by a second bite and proclaimed, "its so strange, but amazing i think i might cry". looking forward to trying more of the menu, it looks incredible and the owner was nice enough to stop by and check we were enjoying them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an amazing experience at K-Way tonight. The Authentic Korean Boss and the Lovely Lady were incredibly generous and kind. Despite our 4-hour journey and their impending closing time, they went out of their way to care for us and ensure we had a great visit. They treated our children to complimentary drinks, mochi, and crispy chicken bites, which was such a thoughtful gesture. The food itself was absolutely delicious—truly super yummy! We travel to Korea sometimes, but now we know we don’t need a long flight to enjoy authentic Korean cuisine. We feel so lucky to have found this gem in Wales. Tonight, we ordered Korean-style crispy prawn sushi roll and chicken skewers for our kids, and it was a highlight of our day. Thank you for creating such wonderful memories for us!

The food is exceptionally tasty, with generous portions that leave us more than satisfied. You can really tell that they use the freshest ingredients; every dish is vibrant and flavorful. The authentic herbs and spices in each dish bring out an amazing depth of flavor, making it clear that a lot of care goes into their cooking. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious and authentic meal!

Me and a friend came today to try the bibimbap and tteokbokki. Everything was cooked fresh and tasted amazing. I forgot to take a before picture as I was too eager with my mixing and eating, lol. This will be my regular whenever I come to Newport. The customer service was amazing too.
