    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.

    Premium Dosirak with Spicy Pork Ribs - $18
    Michael X.

    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!

    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).

    Premium option with bossam $19

    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.

    Spicy pork ribs premium dosirak - IG @bougiefoodieboi

    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.

    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.

    Premium bento with bossam
    Huong L.

    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 :)

    Beef Bulgogi Dosirak ($15)
    Kimmy L.

    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

    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.

    Dosirak and Japchae
    Nicole H.

    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.

    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.

    Spicy chicken
    Megan G.

    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.

    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.

The crowds are less heavy now and yelp joining the waitlist is super convenient. Although today's waitlist join said it would take 16-33min to be seated, I got the text that table was ready within 3 minutes. We were still en route and made it within 15 minutes but were removed from the waitlist because we didn't answer the 3 minute call. Nonetheless, we only waited 10min for another table. The dining area that is nearest to reception can get "cold" particularly the corner, we sat there once and your elders will not like it. Today we got seated there again and decided to wait for the other side where the AC wasn't full blast. Its all chill. Friendly, accommodating staff. The food comes fast, like Din Tai Fung. The cost too, is like DTF. Overall, its good, but not worth the higher cost, but the service and cleanliness make it a combined 5 Star. The Kalbi Tang is the star, a must get every single visit.

    Food was mediocre. The marinated beef wasn't too bad tho. There weren't much sauces. I thought the…read moresnack bar had some more sauces where you could make your own but there's only one on your table labeled dipping sauce. The pork belly comes with a sauce they bring for you. Speaking of pork belly they were too chewy we cooked it for long enough and it was still very chewy. Service was trash. The lady that was our server poured all the meat on our fryer so half of the meat was stacked on top of each other so it took longer to cooked. We're already on a 90 minute time crunch. If my step dad wasn't pestering the lady for a next round they wouldn't have checked on us and we would've been waiting for 30 minutes. While we were waiting for the second round the lady told us to turn off our heater when we're not using it, the man later came and turned it back on and told us to keep it at level 400-500. The next time we got the food she tried to put all the meat on the fryer again my step dad said "It's okay we got it, thank you" she looked at us like we didn't know what we were doing. Later on she looked at how we put everything on the fryer she looked and laughed at us TWICE.

The food itself was enjoyable and we appreciated having a place where we could gather and cook together for a special occasion. The meats were flavorful and we still made the best of our time there. Unfortunately, the service experience was disappointing. Throughout our meal, staff did not check in on our table to see how things were going. Our grill and grill parchment paper were not changed, and our banchan dishes were not refilled. No one explained whether banchan refills were available since we did not choose the AYCE option. We also noticed that sesame oil, which is typically offered at most Korean restaurants, was not provided and seemed to be kept behind the counter instead of being offered to our table. One thing that stood out to us was that we were the only Asian customers dining at the time. We observed staff spending a significant amount of time checking in on other tables multiple times, while our table did not receive the same level of attention. The difference in attentiveness felt noticeable, and honestly, it felt intentional. At the end of our visit, no one thanked us or said goodbye, which made the experience feel impersonal, especially since we were there celebrating a birthday. We came in excited to celebrate together as a family. While the food was good, the lack of attentiveness and communication impacted our overall experience. We hope the service can improve so that all guests feel equally welcomed and cared for..
