Halal Korean BBQ and samgyetang at Tampines 1.
Namu Bulgogi at Tampines 1 is a Halal-certified Korean restaurant that serves an extensive menu including BBQ, stews, and one of the more comprehensive Halal samgyetang, or ginseng chicken soup, offerings in Singapore. The halal certification makes it a rarity in the Korean dining scene, opening up authentic Korean flavours to Muslim diners who might otherwise have limited options. The BBQ menu covers marinated beef bulgogi, spicy pork, and chicken, all grilled at the table, while the samgyetang is a slow-simmered whole chicken stuffed with glutinous rice, ginseng, and jujube that doubles as comfort food and nourishing tonic. Banchan, or side dishes, are replenished generously, and the menu extends to bibimbap, kimchi jjigae, and tteokbokki for those who prefer non-BBQ options. The #B1-K18 kiosk in the basement occupies a compact but inviting space with the scent of grilling meat drawing passers-by. For Korean food that everyone at the table can enjoy, Namu Bulgogi at Tampines 1 is a standout. It is inclusive, authentic, and deeply satisfying.Operating Hours

Umar
Ordered takeaway chapeghetti and it was so horrible. The noodles are just cooked in what seemed like just soy sauce? The chicken doesnt even have the smokey taste even tho it is supposed to be smoke grilled. And for the price it is not worth. Pls consider revamping this menu. 😢 …

Went on a weekday dinner, not much crowd as weekend. Ordered Haemul pancake, Chapagetti with chicken, and Haemul Seaweed Jjigue. The pancake is not super crispy and hope it will have more seafood in it. The noodle used black soy sauce to make flavouring which can be better. The seafood soup is okay.

I enjoyed the spicy seafood noodles, it had a bold, satisfying seafood flavor. However, the chicken bulgogi fell short of expectations, it lacked the promised fiery heat and the chicken hadn’t absorbed the seasoning so it wasn’t flavorful enough.
Wei Jie
The mixed grilled chicken was delicious! Portion was big as well! Love the cheese in the middle which goes well with the chicken! Fast service too!
Valerie
Serves good and delicious Korean dishes. Grilled ox tail or chicken with gochujang sauce surprisingly tasted awesome.
