I assume the pop was in the kitchen doing the cooking. She notified us that the chicken soup was going to take a while. It actually did take that long. The soup came out delicious. It was my first time having the chicken ginseng soup with rice inside the chicken. The broth was very flavorful. The chicken was easy to break apart and not dry. The rice inside was well cooked. The kimchi was pretty good. I liked how crunchy it was. Other friends got the beef rib soup and kimchi fried rice. The beef rib soup was also really flavorful. The kimchi fried rice was also pretty good. It came with spam. It's a pretty small place. They were able to accommodate 6 people at a table on one side.

We always crave good Korean food but it's usually hard to find depending on the location. Luckily…read morewe came across K Pop Foodz in Cat City because we were dying for good Korean food! We got the spam kimbap + tteokbokki combo which was good. The kimbap could've used a little less rice because I couldn't fit a slice in my mouth lol but not complaining, it was good. We also got yukgaejang (spicy beef soup) which hit the spot. Their kimchi was fire. SO delish! All the staff were really nice and friendly. We will definitely be back next month since we'll be back in the area again and we always crave good kfood.

Maru is actually good kbbq in the middle of the desert. Honestly, really impressed. We're from LA…read moreand surrounded by tons of spots and Maru is better than a lot of those. Ordered the stir fried squid which was really delicious. Great flavor, we loveeee squid. The tofu soup was really good too. Love that they give an egg to crack on top - that set it apart and took it up a level. The kimchi pancake was decent too, but not as crispy as I usually like it. Side dishes hit the spot! Especially the fish cake. When we ran out, they quickly brought more. Highly recommend Maru. Amazing service and great atmosphere. The best kbbq in the desert!

If you are over 5'11" in a booth configuration you will feel a bit crammed. My knees kept hitting the base of the table. Very convenient for hot pot and Korean bbq at the same time. My wife loves hot pot while I love Korean bbq. It's a win-win.

The boneless short ribs were absolutely delicious--our favorite dish of the night--and the cheesy corn was amazing as well. I highly recommend checking this place out!

Ok BBQ. I had the…read moreBBQ Beef Ribs, coleslaw, beans, and cornbread. The meat falls off te bone, but it was lacking flavor; the BBQ sauce helped. The coleslaw was tasty, really liked the apples in it. The beans were under seasoned. The cornbread was good, a little dense, but tasted good. The service was good. Friendly staff and the food came out fast. The ambiance was ok. More like a sports bar than a restaurant.

OK, short and sweet…read more I never would have thought great "sushi" would be found in the desert. Otori is a desert gem. The only down side is the limited hours they are open and the wait for a table on a Saturday night (at least on season) is one of the longest I've experienced in a long time. Once seated the service was spot on. Every aspect was exactly what makes the whole experience all the better. It's a nice space, simple, and while relativly small is well laid out and comfortable. On the to quality of the food. And as I said it is the best sushi I've ever had. The price is very reasonable for sushi, and it is the only time I've ever struggled to finish it all. Usually I could do another roll or two but not here. Followup, went back one a week day, about 6pm and was seated immediately!

We have been to Otori a few times. It's a great little local secret…read more The food portions are big, fresh, and out to you fairly quickly. The service is always top notch and accommodating. They do not take reservations. You have to get on the waitlist via a tablet. Though, I think Yelp offers the waitlist option on the app so you can join before even leaving your house.

10/10 highly recommend. I've been coming here for years, and Katie is hands down the best server…read moreever. She's incredibly attentive, friendly, and even remembers our usual order every time we come in. That said, the experience can be very inconsistent depending on the staff. When we don't have Katie or Alan, the service tends to fall short. Unfortunately, the other day was the worst we've experienced. Our server seemed disengaged, even rolling her eyes when we finally flagged her down to order more food. After placing the order, it was never entered, and we ended up waiting about 20 minutes with nothing on our grill. We'll definitely keep coming back because we love the place, but I really wish the level of service was more consistent across the entire team, more like what we get with Katie and Alan.

The hostess was attentive and understanding…read more The rice is the only weak point, it's more long-grain than either short (calrose) or medium-grain typically served. But at least they added more water to their long-grain rice do it's not very typical. Otherwise, I would have hated it, having the rice dancing all over my mouth...where the sticky ones doesn't. The boneless marinated beef chuck was great! The one that come in cubes. I recommend "B" option to include more savory meats such as Gal-bee and some other premium steak for another $5 or so per person. I enjoyed the spicy tofu soup, which I had it several times for the comfort. Their miso soup was good, also. Their Kimchi wa bit sour, bur I asked for me! Plus the hostess asked me if I wanted an ice cream. That I appreciated the gesture without having to ask...

Located in a shopping plaza. Got the Tori Katsu chicken cutlet set and a spicy tuna roll…read more The chicken katsu was done right. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and not greasy. It came together perfectly with the sides and felt like a complete, comforting meal. Everything on the plate tasted fresh and well prepared. The spicy tuna roll was a nice addition. Clean flavors with just enough spice, and it balanced out the richness of the katsu. The restaurant has a calm, casual feel and it's easy to sit and enjoy your food. Staff was friendly and attentive, and service was smooth. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm in the mood for a solid Japanese meal.

This is my first time coming here, so I didn't really know what goes inside the bowl. The place was not crowded at all, which is nice. It's a small little place, but it smelled clean, and looked clean, and the service was quick. I took my food to go and was very surprised when I got home and opened my container. They really packed the bowl up, and it was absolutely delicious. I did see some reviews saying that the food was very salty, but I didn't taste any saltines. That might've been a mistake, or a new chef or something at the time. My ball had white rice, steamed veggies, a little bit of glass noodles. I think they're called, and a good portion of the beef Bulgogi. Got some sides of teriyaki sauce and hot sauce if I needed it, but the food was flavorful enough already. I'll definitely be coming back and trying something else on their menu
