"This modern family-run Korean spot in Hackney has a warmth to it that goes far beyond its finger-licking king prawns in gochujang sauce. Siblings run the show, dad’s in the kitchen, and diners salivate over tender soy-braised short ribs that will collapse from the rumble of an Overground train." - rianne shlebak

"You’ll find Miga on a corner of Mare Street, but the modern Korean restaurant feels different to the nearby bedlam of Broadway Market. The calming family-run spot has a warmth that goes far beyond its finger-licking king prawns in gochujang sauce. Siblings run the show, dad’s in the kitchen, and diners salivate over tender soy-braised short ribs that collapse from the rumble of an Overground train." - jake missing, sinead cranna, daisy meager

"Meet the Migas. They’re the family behind this modern Korean restaurant in Hackney, with dad in the open kitchen and his kids, the cool, unabashedly kind siblings, who are responsible for the warm welcome and service. It’s a calming, white-washed blank canvas of a room we want to spend the majority of our time in, even if a fleeting thought of the gochujang sauce didn’t already make us blush. The gelatine-adjacent glass noodles carry the exquisite smoky flavours of the oyster mushrooms straight to your sinuses, and we have no words for the beef tartare—only dazed mumblings of “love you pear slivers”. Whether you come for lunch or dinner, the crowd is treated as one big extended, blended family." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley

"You’ll find this modern Korean restaurant on a corner of Mare Street. Miga feels different to that part of Hackney, though. The family-run spot has a warmth to it that goes far beyond its caramelised king prawns in gochujang sauce. Siblings run the show, dad’s in the kitchen, and tender soy-braised short ribs collapse from the rumble of an Overground train. It’s great, it’s little, and it’s sure to make anyone you bring take any future recommendations from you like it’s scripture." - heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna

"You’ll instantly feel like part of the family who runs this minimalist Korean restaurant in Hackney. The siblings at Miga greet everyone warmly—whether it’s your first time or you’re a local returning with friends “to spread the word”—while their dad cooks in the open kitchen. Beef tartare with sesame oil and slivers of crunchy Korean pear is a revelation, sweet, tender short rib falls off the bone at a nudge, and meaty prawns come on a gochujang sauce we want to mainline. Our adoption papers are in the post." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
