Overall had a great time here and would come back! Food The premium bento was $20 after tax. It came filled with plenty of food, enough for two servings for me, and came out fresh and hot. My favs were the pickled cabbage, stir fried fish cakes, and sesame ball. I would not get the chicken again as I found it dry. I liked the fish cakes a lot and in the future would consider buying a container separately. I look forward to trying other menu items Service We ordered on the screen but the food came out quickly. The minimal staff interaction we did have was pleasant. You do not bus your own table Ambiance Very clean and casual. Decor reminded me of a cafe almost. Not a ton of seating, but the way the food is packaged makes it great for travel/to-go read more

This small and intimate Korean restaurant is nestled in a small business center. When I visited the first time, I was hoping to try their kimchi but the smallest option to purchase was a 5lb bag. I cannot commit to large volume when I don't know what it taste like. So instead I ordered kimbop and their soup of the day. That soup of the day - it was a beef and radish soup. Insane flavor! The broth was delicious and left us wanting to try more foods. Came back and of course ordered more of the soup of the day which was still the beef and radish. And also ordered a Korean lunch box. The offerings in the box were delicious. The Korean tonkatsu was crispy and paired with a sauce that was very sweet. A little too sweet for my liking. But the egg omelette was delicious. The jap chae was seasoned well. We will definitely keep coming back to this place. The food is good and offers a great addition to the neighborhood. read more

Picked up dinner here for the family, and it was really good!! Great value and alot of variety! Had the boiled pork, pancake, and hamburger beef Definitely will come back! Everyone loved it! read more

Saw great review from Yelp so I came over to try it out. It's a small cozy mom and pop shop. I order the Kim bab bento for lunch. The service was quick. The bento box was a decent size and I like how flavorful the rice cake was. Unfortunately the rice cake sauce spilled over to the kimbab so it got a little soggy but still tasty. I will be back to try other items. read more

Ahram Kitchen - App menu - Korean Near Me - Renton, Washington

I have been to Ahram Kitchen a couple of times at the time of this review, and I think that for Korean food, especially in the Bellevue area, this place is great! Ahram Kitchen is located in a small shopping plaza, with plenty of parking spaces nearby. I have only done online ordering and pickup, which is usually ready in about 10-25 minutes. Good enough for me personally to run a quick errand and pick my food up. Service has been consistent so far in my online orders, where all requests have been fulfilled. I have ordered the Premium Dosiak a couple of times for $18, and I think that for the amount of food you get for that price, it is pretty solid! For most Korean places on the Eastside, if you want to get a entree or a combo, you could see yourself spending up to at least $25-30, which is very expensive in my opinion. Not here at Ahrams - you can get this collection of food to go for $18! And the flavor is very comforting. The soup when eaten with the banchan and entree are a perfect portion for me, and I think would leave most people comfortably full. As other reviewers have put it, the style of the food here is very home style, which I think is a huge plus as most restaurants tend to amp their flavors to taste good but feel not as good afterwards. I take Ahram Kitchen as a very welcome addition to the Eastside food scene, as most other Korean food options are too inflated in price. The convenience, price, and flavor make this the perfect option to order from if you are feeling like not cooking for the night. I would totally recommend this place if you are in the area! read more

Food is quite authentic. Not necessarily the best I have ever had or anything but very authentic. Bossam was great, Tteokbokki sucked, spicy pork was good, kimbap was solid. All the banchan dishes tasted homemade. So why am I giving this place a 4 star? It's the fact that you can get a combination of above average banchans (lots of options) and main dishes for a reasonable price. Sure, I can probably make everything I see here. Some dishes - I can probably even make better (my Tteokbokki for example is 10x superior haha). But! 364 out of 365 days, I don't feel like cooking for hours. I love to eat a variety of Korean dishes like these but I just don't have the time or the energy to make them myself. Service and ambiance here are not relevant. I recommend this place if you like authentic Korean dishes that offer homemade feel and variety for under $20 (pretax). read more

Korean food, mostly take out but does have two small tables for dine-in. There was quite a selection on their menu and lots of things looked good. I got the premium option with bossam, came with rice, small soup (good addition), few sides for $19 (one of the higher priced lunch options, some were cheaper). It was more food than I'd eat for a lunch. I liked having all the variety as well. Quality and taste were both good overall. I'd definitely come back to try the other items on menu. read more

Ahram Kitchen - Premium option with bossam $19 - Korean Near Me - Renton, Washington

I went here to try their Korean lunch boxes aka dosirak. I ordered the premium dosirak with spicy pork ribs which comes with a selection of 5 different small dishes, rice, and soup. The $3 extra was worth for the soup. The basic vs premium also differs in the meat you get, as they don't overlap. A lot of effort is put into the presentation and packaging of the order, and I love the appeal of variety when it comes to these types of lunch boxes. I only gave a 4 star because the pork ribs were very hard to take out the meat as the meat sticks into the bone, and it was a bit dry. For it being called spicy, it was barely spicy. read more

I heard good reviews from friends but my own experience was subpar. I am very familiar with Korean food and these lunchboxes did not deliver. We ordered a spicy pork and a spicy chicken. The chicken meat was overcooked and dry. The pork had no sauce and the chicken was swimming in sauce, so much so that it ended up in the sweet pasta grape situation next door. What is with these semi-hard beets too? The sides were terrible. I expected some homemade kimchi (which they do sell as banchan) from other photos but I got 2 starches (potato salad, pasta) which was very disappointing. The portions were small. From previous photos, I can tell that the box compartments was recently changed so there's less sides now. The beet compartment was super shallow like for sauce. I'm not a fan and it wasn't really worth it for me. I'll just go to a real Korean restaurant where I can get a refill on sides and be happy. read more

I saw this place from a food blogger I follow and decided to try it since it was close to my dentist :) I ordered online and it was pretty straightforward and pick up was also standard. I do recommend ordering ahead though as they seem to take their time in getting the food ready. They also seem to be training new people as well and was very meticulous in getting the packaging properly. The place has a few tables so it's mainly a take out area. There is also a parking lot. Foodwise: Premium bento with bossam --- this came with 5 sides, rice and soup as well. For $18 portion was decent. The meat was tender and nicely flavored. Some pieces was dry though while other pieces wa fatty and juicy. The sides were fresh and tasty. We also got the marinated squid and the braised beef on the side as well. Both of these were good but it definitely needs rice. It was too flavorful to be eaten on its own. Overall, I would come back on my next dentist visit :) read more

My family and I got takeout from Ahram Kitchen last week for the first time and were thoroughly impressed by both the quantity and quality of the food! Ahram Kitchen serves 11 different types of Dosirak, which are Korean lunchboxes similar to bento boxes. They serve Basic Dosirak ($15 each) which includes rice, 4 sides, and spicy pork, spicy chicken, beef bulgogi, or braised spicy tofu. They also have Premium Dosirak options ($18 each) which include rice, soup, 5 sides, and Hamburg steak, boiled pork belly, spicy pork ribs, spicy boneless chicken, meat pancake, or sweet & sour tofu. In addition to Dosirak, Ahram offers a variety of ban chan (Korean appetizers), kimchi, kimbap (Korean sushi), bibimbap (Korean rice bowl), and home meal kits (Korean stews and casseroles). My family ordered one each of their Basic Dosirak ($15 each): SPICY PORK, SPICY CHICKEN, BRAISED SPICY TOFU, and BEEF BULGOGI. The SPICY PORK was excellent. Mildly spicy, sweet, and savory. It came with sides of crispy vegetable pancakes, sesame oil kelp, pickled yellow daikon, and potato pieces. Of the sides, the sesame oil kelp was my favorite as it was both savory and umami (as opposed to the usual pickled seaweed salad you get at Costco). I honestly would buy an entire container of it next time I'm there! The SPICY CHICKEN was also great. It looked like it had the same sauce as the pork, but I think it's actually slightly different as it was less sweet than the pork. It came with the same sides as the Spicy Pork Dosirak. The BRAISED SPICY TOFU was tasty, especially for being vegetarian. It came with large chunks of potato and onion, purple rice, and kimchi cucumber. It was also mild in spice. The BEEF BULGOGI was well-marinated and came with fish cake instead of pickled daikon. There were a few pieces of inedible fat, but to be expected given the cut of beef. The sauce was sweet and savory and everything bulgogi should be. Note that Ahram Kitchen only has two tables for seating inside and so it's best for takeout rather than dine-in. The interior is very clean though and they sell merchandise and snacks too. Parking here is easy as they have a shared parking lot with the rest of the strip mall. Service was fantastic. We ordered ahead of time and picked up our order within 20 minutes after placing our order online. They had it all packaged up nicely and the hostess was super nice and friendly. Overall: 5/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere read more

Super pretty boxes with tasty food! I'd recommend ordering online so you don't have to wait in person, if not the wait is maybe 10-20 minutes depending on how busy it is. I tried the bulgogi dosirak for $15 which had a lot for the price! It came with 4 sides, rice, and of course bulgogi. The sides were all tasty and the bulgogi was very tender. I'd definitely come back to try other options! read more

Went for lunch with my dad after seeing the reviews and was very impressed with the price and speed of service! Our cashier was very sweet :) You can't find another solid Japchae in this area for $7, that's for sure. Would recommend taking your food to go, as many of the seating options appear to be mostly for waiting or a quick sit-down meal in small groups. The dosirak packaging is very cute, and we were impressed that it could feed 2 people. While waiting we got to look at the banchan display and contemplated grabbing a pre-made frozen meal, which can serve a small family and looked delicious! We'll definitely come back here soon to try more dishes. read more

They opened up not too long ago. I gave it a try. I ordered the basic bento box. I like that they put a lot of care into making the box. Each side dish offered different flavors. The dumplings were sold out before we got there. The lady there was nice. There aren't a lot of seats inside but it was clean and simple. They have a kiosk to order if you want to see pictures. I'd go again in the future. read more

Great concept and tasty execution. Definitely a family run type restaurant in the best way. They staff seem to care about the product and food had an authentic home style taste. The place is unassuming in a strip mall but worth the visit. They served the food in little trays that had all the banchan. They even have home kit meals you can buy and heat up at home. Looking forward to trying that next time. read more

A hidden gem! It's very convenient to preorder online and pick up the perfectly packed lunch. Love the packaging and attention to detail. Food was flavorful and comforting with a nice variety of side dishes. Definitely will come back when I'm in the area to try some of the other lunch boxes. Rice was a great purple rice cooked with nice extras, I think beans or nuts. Restaurant has a good amount of seating. Also, major bonus points for bathroom that is small child friendly including a potty seat and step stool! Just adding to feel of a homey meal experience. read more

We had the Beef Bulgogi, Spicy pork ribs, Jap Chae and Taegu. The bulgogis flavor was very light. The pork ribs tasted ok, it was tender. The Jap Chae didn't come with any meat, the flavor had a little too much sesame oil. The Taegu was spot on, I could have just eaten that with some rice. Everything with two sodas came out to about $55. You order from an iPad kiosk. You also pay on there to, credit card only, no cash option. Yes, they have an automated tipping screen that comes up when you pay. That tipping screen should be removed, tips are given if you are getting service, like at a regular sit down restaurant where you have a server. The place is nice and clean. They only have a couple areas to sit down and eat in there, but it looks like people mainly take out. read more

As someone who constantly craves Korean food, I was excited to discover Ahram Kitchen recently opened just down the street! A Korean-style deli that specializes in dosirak (lunch boxes) we knew we had to stop by! While it looks like they may still be setting up inside, we ordered to go and it was sooo tasty. The woman at the counter was very sweet and had great service. We ordered the premium dosirak with bossam which included a variety of banchan and a cup of the soup of the day (today's was beef & radish soup) which was so tasty and warming. We also ordered ddeokbokki and the tofu bibimbap. All of it was very delicious and will be a new go-to spot for a quick fix or for lunch options. I'll add that everything was packaged beautifully (before I unboxed) and had great serving sizes for the price and quality! read more

There's a kiosk to order as soon as you enter, and plenty of options. In short, it had everything I wanted and nothing I didn't want. There's vegetarian and meat options. I felt satisfied but not stuffed. Sleek and simple design make the restaurant so spacious. There's no crowding because everything is to-go, and if there happens to be seating open you can eat there. Service is polite and staff also answer questions about the menu. We'll definitely return! read more

There's not a lot of Korean restaurants that do fast food with the quality and care that mothers put on your table (집밥). The portions are large and the food is tasty and well seasoned. The packaging is of higher quality but the food was intended to remain tasty even if it's not served piping hot. While eating the dosirak in store is probably better, don't miss out on the banchan and the meal kit to go! The owner is friendly and the handmade cups and arts hung as designs make this spot feel comfortable and like home. read more

Moving to the Seattle area from LA, it is so hard to find good Korean food anywhere here. I gave up entirely and just accepted that Seattle has no good Korean food. Then this place opened up nearby me and thank God it did because it's delicious and tastes as great as anything you can find in LA. Now I just need to find a good Mexican restaurant and life will be great. read more

I tried this place today for the first time and really enjoyed my Kimbap Dosirak. It came with 12 large pieces of kimbap, with several different filling inside. It had cucumber, carrots, egg, imitation crab meat, fish cake and pickled daikon. The side of ddukbokki was the best part though. It reminded me of the kinds they sell at the street vendors in Seoul. The sauce was very thick and the rice cake was chewy. I liked that it was the smaller cylinders of rice cake and not the huge pieces. They said they'll sell the ddukbokki as its own entree in a few weeks due to demand, so I'll definitely be going back for that! The japchae was good; standard and enjoyable. The sesame rice ball was also delicious! I thought the $14.34 after tax price was a bit high, but not super unreasonable. read more
