    The food at Bibio is satisfying and filling. I absolutely love Korean food, so I was down to have some fast casual for lunch. It's Chipotle-style, so you can do a bowl, get protein, and add toppings and sauces. I got the brown rice bowl with beef and spicy Korean BBQ sauce, with all the toppings. One piece of feedback I had was that the kimchi was lacking the strong flavor it normally does. Otherwise, it's pretty solid if you want quick and healthy. The service was fine. The tables were sticky and the bathroom was grimy so it just seemed like the place needed a deep clean.

    Food was really bad. Noticeably dirty restaurant. Meat was cold. The zucchini tasted odd. I was afraid to eat the rest of my food for fear of getting food poisoning. The service needs improvement. Not customer service friendly.

    Walk up counter service with menu board overhead

    Stopped in for lunch on a recent business trip through the area, this is good a Korean BBQ place. Walk up counter service that is courteous and professional, place your order and the server will prepare it for you as you move through the service line. Even adding a fried egg only takes a moment, your bowl is presented to you when yourorder is ready. Pay and grab a seat. After viewing the overhead board I opted for the classic BYOBowl this is pretty much you build it the way you like with choices of rices, greens, spices, meats and sauces. I went for brown rice with a spicy chicken, kimchi, beautiful mixed greens shredded cabbage and sauce with an over medium fried egg on top. It was very good and filling with just enough heat to let you know you'd been there. This small eatery is very industrial and minimalist on the inside, with a small amount of seated space to eat, a lot of the orders are take it to go. 3.5 Stars rounded up for the authentic Kimchi 00869

    Cute little build your own Bibio bowls! Quick service and delicious food. Beef Bulgogi, kimchi and japchae, my favorite!!

    This place is absolutely delicious! I have not dined in, but what I usually do if I'm in the area is a stop in and order some Korean bowls to go. Every time I have stopped in the restaurant is clean and welcoming. Recently, I discovered they are available on GrubHub! My family and I have started ordering from here once a week. The food is so delicious that even my seven year old son loves it. I love how customizable the Korean bowl is and you can add as much or as little as you want to it. This is what I usually order: Korean bowl with: Salad & rice base Spicy pork Chicken Bulgogi Pickled Carrots & radish Bean sprout salad Sautéed onion & pepper Red cabbage Kimchi Spicy Cucumber Sesame seeds My seven year old will get a kids bowl with chicken Bulgogi and rice. Every time we order from here he gets excited as he absolutely loves it! I highly recommend you check it out

    It's hard for me to step out of my comfort zone when it comes to dining out, this is not a place I would normally go to, but I was in the area and felt like trying something different. I have to say I was very pleased with the food, it was excellent! I had a Beef Bulgogi bowl and tried the Beef Bulgogi fries. Both were delicious! As for the star review, I would give the food a 4.5 out of 5 and the restaurant a 2.5 out of 5. My issue; it was filthy. The owners need to make sure this place is continually cleaned throughout the day, and probably a deep clean weekly. Aesthetically it's unpleasing and that atmosphere can actually ruin an appetite. If this is how it looks outward facing, I can only imagine how the back area and food storage areas look. Sticky tables and floors, trash on the ground, grime on the baseboards, and stains everywhere. I would still probably go back, maybe it was an off day. But if it didn't get any better, not likely.

    The food is pretty good, especially the mandu pork dumplings. Unfortunately, the service and level of cleanliness is pretty poor. There was only employee working during the dinner rush, and he was running between food and money without gloves. We saw him cough into his hand and then touch the cups Because he was alone the service was also incredibly slow.

    Well.. I was driving by so I thought I give it a try. Well.. It wasn't bad idea is not bad but they got some of the cooking order backward.. So i ordered the hotpot version of the bibimbop.. So you pick your order of stuff to put on including the veggies stuff. But then they cook/heat up the hot pot with all your stuff in it. The vegetables side dishes stuff is not suppose to be piping hot, rice meat and veggies goes on top.. I don't care for my cucumber salad to be piping hot. . The taste was not bad. Not the worst not the best. The meat portions are precooked and sitting there in a big pot.. They did not look appetizing.. I know it's suppose to be kind of fast but not appealing. Staff was friendly didn't care for the sticky table even though it was wiped off. So I don't think I would go again.. For the price I paid I could go to a Korean restaurant and have better quality food. Not to mention kochujang/Korean chilly sauce was weak... Not even spicy.

    This is my favorite go-to place for Korean Tofu soup! I got…read morethe beef tofu soup - medium spicy. Tofu soup comes with rice and the side dishes. I love the rice with the pumpkin/squash in it! And the side dishes are so delicious! They switch to different ones every few months. The soup also comes with the raw egg that you crack it on top when they bring out the dish. The broth is always flavorful and depends on which tofu soup (beef, seafood, kimchi, etc) you get, the broth flavor is different. The tofu is made in house so it is fresh and soft. The staff is always friendly and the restaurant is nice and clean.

My friends and I came to this place together because I had been before and liked the Korean food here. Food was legit and was a good experience previously. However, the day we came in, the waitress got my friend's order wrong as my friend wanted the bibimbap but the waitress heard something else and brought out a soup. When my friend immediately told her that isnt what she ordered, the waitress (new) proceeded to argue with my friend. I watched incredulously as things started to unfold. The waitress even asked my friend to pronounce bimbimpap again and told her she should learn how to pronounce it better. She kept arguing wirh my friend and mind you, waitess wasnt Korean or Korean American. At this point, I had to step in, as I also heard my friend say bibimbap clearly. The waitress didnt know what she was talking about and at the same time was being rude as heck to my friend. Then, my other friend shows up and orders a bibimpap. When the bibimpap is brought out, I asked her to bring some gochujang for my friend. I didnt know if my friend would like this chili paste, so wanted her to have the option to try it. The waitress again decided to argue about this and at this point, she was really testing my nerve. She said bibimpap doesn't come with gochujang and I am like thinking are you crazy, woman? I am not Korean but I have been eating Korean food for 30+ years, I know what I am talking about. She then asked me to repeat gochujang several times and I was very annoyed at this point. Its like, look lady, you dont know what youre talking about, stop sticking your foot in your mouth and come on, be nice to your customers! Because of this terrible behavior, I asked to speak to a manager, a woman came over and listened to what happened and apologized and thats how we found out she was new. I was beyond frustrated at this point. Despite the horrible service, I still left a 10% tip, but honestly the waitress deserves zilch and needed more training. The food is solid here but I wont be returning with that kind of behavior, I can choose where my money goes, and these days with it being so hard to get by, good luck to this place as I am not coming back.

The beef soup was very good - tofu was ultra soft and silky. I loved the spice level and they bonchon was also definitely worth trying. I would recommend getting extra salad dressing on the side and getting the lettuce plate (which is an extra $3.5) for the meat unless you want to eat it with the pre-tossed salad. Huge fan of the ginseng spirit. Not their typical 40-53% though, so be sure to know the difference. They also served me a different one than what I had in the flight which tasted and looked different (it was murkier vs clear when ordered in the full bottle) and the bottle is def 13%. Service is on pointe - never needed to ask for anything other than another box and if you're trying to hear someone on a first date I wouldn't recommend coming here, but the general ambiance is fun and worth a try with good friends and family. Definitely will try again for other menu items.
