Daiu Cardiff Bay

Absolutely unreal. This was genuinely one of the best dining experiences of my life. The atmosphere alone is stunning. The hotpot & BBQ food was incredible, super fresh, loads of choice, amazing quality, and so much fun cooking everything at the table. Every single thing i tried was delicious. Im completely obsessed and will be recommending this place to everyone. 10/10 😍🫶🏻

Excellent value for money, we paid £36.75pp (I believe this includes arriving 5% service charge) for unlimited Hot Pot and Korean Bbq but also includes buffet style oriental food and a small section of desserts which mainly includes ice cream or fruit, drinks are paid separately which you can order via QR code on the table or you can go up to the bar. Food - It was delicious, definitely tasted fresh including the vegetables and meat. Chicken, beef and lamb is halal. Service - Staff were really helpful, and provided excellent customer service. Coming over from time to time to change the sheets on the grill or add water in your hot pot. Overall would definitely recommend this place, the food and quality is excellent and definitely good value for money, and its halal which is super hard to find unless you live in London.

We had such a brilliant experience at DAIU Cardiff Bay. From the moment we sat down, it felt different to your usual restaurant visit. The interactive Korean BBQ and hot pot setup makes the whole meal feel immersive and fun, without losing any of the quality. The broths were rich and full of depth, and the range of meats, seafood and vegetables meant everyone could build exactly what they wanted. The marinated short rib was a standout for us, beautifully caramelised on the grill, and the hot pot ingredients were fresh and generous. We visited during Lunar New Year and the atmosphere was fantastic. Warm, lively and welcoming. The team were attentive and helpful in explaining how everything worked, which makes a big difference if it is your first time. It is rare to find somewhere that works just as well for a family dinner as it does for a fun night out, but DAIU manages both with great sake to boost! Highly recommend if you are looking for something a little more interactive and memorable in Cardiff Bay.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an amazing experience at Daiu! It’s an all-you-can-eat place with a unique twist — you grill your own meat right at the table, plus they offer a great hotpot setup as well. The quality of the ingredients is excellent — super fresh and flavourful.

Limited choice of food. Very bland and oily stock pot, made everything you boil in it bland yet immediately overfilling. Tinned peaches on the bottom of the large bowl and the cheapest ice-cream, that was refrozen, for dessert, not to mention a handful of mouldy tomatoes in a fruit bowl. The toilets were absolutely filthy and no soap to be found, bud for an eatery, were you cook your own food. The seating arrangements is very crowded, industrial style, suppose to maximise on profits. Good concept, bad execution. Same bad management as the previous business on the premises. We popped next door to a chocolate place, for a cuppa and dessert, to wash down the grease taste in our mouths, seen quite few others doing the same. I do not recommend. The good comments are probably based on a novelty value, by those who have never experienced this style of eatery as it should be.
