This place is all fun! The restaurant has the cutest cubbies for traditional dining, a nice bar area, and of course the karaoke rooms are a blast. The host did a great job of telling us how to run the equipment and how to contact him if we had questions. He also made sure we had our food and drinks and checked in often. The food options were plentiful and the food came out warm and was just as described.
Solid late-night spot for Korean food and karaoke in Spring Branch.. The space is fairly spacious, with bar seating and more intimate booth options. There's plenty of K-pop playing in the background to set the vibe. We tried the pancake, fries, and wings (good for sharing).. all solid and pretty on par with other Korean spots along Long Point. They have happy hour deals and specials on karaoke rooms during the week too. The drink menu is also pretty extensive.. service was efficient, and you can use the usual call bell to order, but the staff still came by often to check on us. Parking is easy since it's in a large strip mall with shared parking. Overall, a good spot for a fun night out with friends.
Nut allergy friendly, they were very cautious to take nuts off of the wings dish for me. We got here for late night bites around 11:20PM and got a booth with no issues. Plenty of parking in the huge strip mall. Time to food: - 15 Minutes (Pancake) - 25-30 Minutes (Fries, wings) Perfect late night Korean bar food. Vibes are great and the food hits with some drinks. Fried food came out crispy and the portions are really sharable.
Great vibes, great drinks but the food was unimpressive. We ordered about 7 different plates and everything was lacking flavor. They gave us complimentary shots to start off with which was nice of them. It was also my first time trying SOJU and I loved it. They place is small but cozy. I'm sure people love to karaoke here -- the atmosphere was vibey.
This place gives good vibes for a night snack or hangout with friends. My friends and I were the only ones at the restaurant on a Monday evening so the service was pretty fast. The pork belly dish we got was decent and got a decent portion. However, the spicy rice cake dish we got was a little disappointing. It was very sweet. My friend who had it before mentioned it's usually pretty good but it was unusually sweet this time around.
This place is a time and a half! Great vibes, cute seating arrangements, and some good kpop music to fill the space as well. I had a large group drop in after some volleyball and the staff was incredibly attentive throughout our meal. Food was quick to come out and each dish was actually great! They have a pretty fleshed out menu to pick from. I would highly recommend the smoked bossam, though, as it was my favorite of the night. They also have the option to Karaoke! Left here very satisfied!
It's not often I'm on this side of town, but I was and was wanting to eat some bossam and this place popped up on my Yelp so I decided to check it out. Upon walking in i must say that's its pretty dark, but a total vibe. They have K-pop music blasting, I like sitting in the booths cause it feels very intimate and cozy. I also love that there's a bell you press whenever you want service ! They come pretty quickly and staff is friendly. I very much enjoyed my bossam, it's not traditional bossam, but it's still pretty good. Lettuce was nice and fresh, and everything in general was delicious. If I was on this side of town again I'd come back and try something else on the menu!
Cozy vibes and great food inside. Unexpected from the outside plaza feel, there's private karaoke rooms that you can reserve and enjoy drinks and food while you sing. The Servers are great, good for groups or solo dates
Service is great and they also have karaoke rooms too. Food is very Korean bar food focused, with a heavily stocked variety of liquor and cocktails. Our favourites are the bossam, odentang, and saucey fried chicken. The non sauce fried chicken lacked seasoning inside. The karaoke controls are different from other karaoke bars and everything was in Korean on the screen so we figured things out as we went along. The bar owner is very helpful and friendly. He also managed soju 101 in Katy Asia town.
The menu is so large that I had a hard time narrowing what I wanted to eat. Sand with the drink options. So I ended up getting a soju sampler and a combo plate. Both were yummy. The waiters were very nice, fast, and helpful. It's cool that there's a button by the karaoke room door to call for help. The room was a nice size. The sound quality was good from the mics and the sound system. I have light sensitivity so I was afraid what the lights moving around might do, but I was fine the whole time. There was happy hour on drinks and the room from 6pm-8pm. They said they could only split the check 4 ways for a large party. So we had to bring cash to split it. They had an official karaoke machine with a large button pad or an iPad with YouTube. The night was so fun. I would recommend coming here for your next party.
We stopped by for dinner tonight, on a Tuesday. We were prompted greeted and sat in a booth. I like the intimacy of the booths, cute string lighting strung throughout the restaurant. The bar vibe is nice, especially with the music corresponding to the music video playing on the TV's and projector. We had the following items: * Strawberry Colada - non alcoholic and delicious! * Takoyaki - crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It was covered with the right amount of sauce, prepared well. * Bossam - this dish was well presented, with the pork belly served on a hot plate - see photo. I love the sauces that accompanied the dish, along with the slices of romaine lettuce. I'm used to this being steamed, not pan seared. It was also a tad bit too fatty for me. * Fish Cake Soup - served on top of a burner to keep it hot. It has a few jalapeno peppers to add a little kick to the soup. There was at least 4 varieties of fish cake. It was a mild soup and pleasing for our palettes. While we were dining, a few groups came through for the karaoke rooms. There were a few others dining while we were there. I think it would be nice to come back for some cocktails, with their huge list. I would like to try their fried chicken and some other menu items and maybe get a room to karaoke as well.
Barkord is more of a lowkey alternative to the other Korean bars in the area. There were plenty of tables when my group came at 10 PM on a Friday. The smoked bossam and fried chicken were standout dishes to me. I would've liked more lettuce with my bossam! The fries and tteokbokki were on par with other pochas. They have a pretty good selection of drinks to choose from and I enjoyed their apricot soju recommendation. They also have karaoke rooms for a decent price if your group was looking to sing! Overall, the food here could be improved upon in my opinion if they wish to remain competitive...
Came in on a Friday at 5:30 and I'm surprised this place isn't packed! The interior was clean, spacious, and very well decorated (this was during Halloween season). My friend and I came in during happy hour so all the drinks were half price. I ordered the Moscow mule, The Tokyo tea, and some Tteok-boki. The Moscow Mule was delicious! The drink was refreshing and I loved the spicy kick from the ginger. I ended up ordering one more since I really enjoyed it. I wish I could say the same thing about the Tokyo tea but I couldn't bring myself to drink more than 3 sips. As for my friend, she enjoyed her French Martini (I believe that was the drink she got) As for the Tteok-Boki, the rice cakes were nice and chewy, the veggies on top were great, and the sauce was sweet, spicy, and savory! Overall, if you're looking for a spot with a ton of drink options, this place is it!
I've visited this place twice now, although I was only able to dine in during my first visit. For my most recent visit, I stopped by for one of their World Cup watch parties but wasn't able to get a table because I forgot to make a reservation. However, the staff was kind enough to recommend a few other places I could go to, which I really appreciated! Here's my review of the food from my first visit: My friend and I ordered a small platter of chicken wings with two flavors: garlic soy and spicy Korean. Both sauces were incredibly flavorful, and the chicken pieces were huge. The wings were easily the standout dish of our meal! The uni jjapagetti is a new menu item and tasted like a more elevated version of classic jjapagetti. The honey butter fries were sweet, savory, and addictive. Lastly, the seafood pancake was good, but it wasn't particularly memorable for me. Although I wasn't able to stay during my second visit, the tasty food, lively atmosphere, and friendly service left such a positive impression that I'll definitely be back. read more

Open late, it's the spot where you can have korean eats, drink some jinro/soju, and sing karaoke with your squad. Seating involves either bar/high-top seating or grabbing a covered booth. And of course the karaoke rooms to belt out songs while pretending you're on American Idol. The setting has a lot of k-pop playing with tvs around blaring k-pop music videos or some type of k-drama. So you feel you're at some korean club or at a k-drama netflix night. As for food, the items we ordered were made for sharing, specifically the kimchi pajeon (pancake), loaded korean fries, and the KFC (that's korean fried chicken for those who don't know) wings. We also split a bottle of jinro to wash everything down. All the eats were solid although we were pretty plastered that night since it was the NFL Saturday wildcard round. Service involves the call bell to order but our server came by to check on us and get us what we needed. They recommended the pajeon which I'm thankful for since it was my first time ever having it. Some food does take a while to come out, specifically the wings/KFC; we timed it at around 20-25 minutes but I'm sure it'll take longer if the place is packed. Plenty of parking. I'd be down to frequent here again and also to try karaoke. read more

My friends and I came here on a Tuesday evening for karaoke through a recommendation from social media. We had such a great time! We got a private karaoke room meant for 8, but I honestly thought it was the perfect size for the 5 of us. Probably because we ordered a lot of food to share and needed the table room for it. From everything we ordered, the crowd favorites were the seafood pancake, the kpop fries, and the tuckpocky and ramen. Cocktails are half off until 9 and my friends really enjoyed them. Service was so good here! You ring the bell, and someone will come to the room. Caris was very attentive and answered all of our questions and requests. A cool thing about the karaoke room here is that you can connect your phone to the tv, so it was a lot easier navigating the session. I will definitely be coming back and recommending this place to my friends! read more
There's a new, fun, and delicious spot on Long Point y'all need to check out asap! Bar.Kor.D stands for Bar, Korean dining, + Karaoke. Alongside other Korean bars and restaurants on Long Point, the parking is aplenty in the strip mall. However, it does fill up pretty fast early on in the evening. Belting out our favorite K-pop hits at the ultimate Korean karaoke bar! Where the soju is cold, the vibes are lively, and the singing is...well, let's just say enthusiastic! Even if you don't sing there's regular dining booths and tables that are great for groups and solo diners too! The food was great and so comforting! We enjoyed everything especially the gimmari (love the deep fried seaweed), kalbi (very well marinated), smoked bossam (great tasting pork belly), + wings (crispy, perfectly sauced)! Cannot wait to go back for more. They have a whole lot of alcohol including soju (the owner cans his own!) , cocktails (and mocktails), beer (domestic and imported), and specialty drinks like Korean Kokaine (order at bar only...you'll see why)! Service was friendly and efficient. Tip: Call ahead and reserve a room for karaoke! There are different size rooms depending on # of guests and rates start from $20/hr. The ambiance is cool and vibey! Its a fun night out with friends... read more

Barkord is a great Korean restaurant in the spring branch area. The drinks are very unique. Definitely worth a visit. read more
We were celebrating my belated birthday and wanted to do karaoke, so I chose this place because we kept passing it while we were in spring branch. We booked a small room for 2 hours at 20$ each hour. It's cheaper than other places so I was pleased. They texted me a few times to verify and thank me; the last place we went didn't do that so that was nice. The karaoke setup is either you use your phone for YouTube or you use their machine; we chose YouTube because there are more selections. The last place we went to had a tablet that kept going down, so again this was a good change. We ordered the bulgogi rice ball, Korean fried chicken and popcorn shrimp with fries. We also ordered my daughter a mock tail which they had several of and these were included on happy hour so it was half price! Everything was good, the waiters were nice and attentive, and we had fun. The only negative was the room was super cold, so bring a blanket!! I think though if you have more people and you're laughing and singing, you wouldn't mind because you'd be sweating! Go check this place out, book a room, and have a ton of fun with good eats and drinks!! read more

Ambiance was great, food service was good, but food quality was bad. The takoyaki had a really weird texture. They were hard in the outside but were raw in the inside. I think they were frozen and just heated up. We were expecting Korean style wings, however, these were the same as if not worse than Wingstop. But more expensive. The Ramen was actually fine. It was actually the favorite part of the meal. read more

This place was good for drinks. All cocktails were amazing but the food was okay. Sausages was delicious. It was not salty, crispy from skin and soft inside. Spicy oden soup also good and umami. However, corn cheese had no flavor and also stired fried intestine. I highly recommend to go happy hour for cocktail. Everything was half piece. Big parking lot read more

Recommended by Caris, a matcha martini & it was pleasantly surprised. The vibrant green color caught my eye, and the first sip was smooth, with the earthy matcha perfectly balanced by a touch of sweetness and vodka's kick. It felt refreshing and unique--definitely not your average cocktail. Great vibe, great drink. I'd visit again. read more

An amazing Monday experience at BarKorD to kick off the week. Pictured is my favorite drink on the menu, a pineapple mojito - cool, crisp, and refreshing the best way to beat the heat in Houston. I ordered to go today, selecting the best seafood pancake in the branch along with an order of garlic soy wings, teriyaki tofu. Service was prompt and polite as always, with Steven behind the bar. Don't miss out on this great spot! read more

I can't wait to come back read more

I am not huge on Korean bbq, and I thought that's what this place was. It was not. I had not had such flavorful Korean dishes. Everything we ordered was very good. The wings are soooo good. I am still thinking about them, and all other wing places are ruined. The services is immaculate, whole other level. We were seated and greeted with complimentary seaweed chips. We ordered the smoked bossam it was ridiculously good. The sauces complement the pork perfectly. Don't get me started on the k pop fries, I want to stop by just pick up these fries made with ground beef and kimchi. Who knew it went so well with cheese. Honestly I can't wait to go back to eat and try karaoke. read more
