delish! I got the soondubu and the mandu. mandu was so tasty and the soup portion was good. really appreciate what they bring to the neighborhood! read more

We didn't know what to expect from here, but I could easily see this place being a new favorite of ours! We ordered two BigNorm Bibimbaps which each came with Gochujang Sauce. I absolutely loved my bowl. It was satisfying and felt healthy aka I didn't feel heavy after. I really loved each of the portions of vegetables included and felt like it was a good variety. The tofu was yummy. My only note is that the Gochujang Sauce isn't spicy (but it's still REALLY good). I also wish there was a tiny bit more rice :) I will definitely order from here again. read more

Such a great takeout option if you're in the mood for Korean! I love their soups. Favorite is the dukguk - so simple and warming to the soul. The food is a little on the saltier side though so be warned! read more

This is the cutest little place in Cobble Hill - I loved the menu options and the set up inside. It is super small, and has max like 3 seating options but it's so adorable!! The two ladies working were so sweet and helpful, I felt like I was at home being fed by my family. The soondubu was super yummy, would 100% come back here! read more

The existing reviews give an accurate picture of what to expect. The employees deserve recognition for their service. My friends know I stand behind this restaurant. The food quality is self-evident. The expense here is completely warranted. read more

Delivery We ordered the dduk guk with added kimchi dumplings, soondobu, and crispy rice bibimbap with tofu. I also got a kiwi Yakult drink. Everything arrived fresh and piping hot! The dduk guk was so comforting and savory. The soondobu was amazing. I would order either again in a heartbeat. I didn't get to try the bibimbap, but no leftovers remained, so I think it was enjoyed! The kiwi drink is gonna be my treat for later today. Go BigNorm! read more

This tiny take-out spot is f***ing delicious!! We sat at the tiny counter which has 4 stools but actually seats 2 most comfortably. Took in the artistic details, the sculpture on the walls, the cool deconstructed bar counter... some crazy acid-jazz hip hop music was playing, and our Jap Chae rocked our socks off. Can't remember the name of the other dish but it was good too! read more

On a gorgeous day in November, it was such a treat to stroll upon a new Korean spot in the hood. It's super tiny and likely set for takeout, but there was a nice table outside and with the unusually high temperatures my wife and I decided to stop for lunch. and there was a small menu with some usual favorites in the Korean cuisine. Service was quick and friendly and you'll love the fresh vegetables and flavors served up. Whit had a Japchae (which did come with sticky rice too) and I had the Nuloongji Bibimbap. The crispy rice bottom was just right and when mixed up with spicy Gochujang sauce. We also shared a refreshing Lime Rickey to drink. Check them out and you'll be in for a great treat. read more

Got the bibimbop. Delicious. They make everything to order so be prepared to wait or call your order in advance. Service is friendly. It's kinda if small so only 3-4 stools to sit on so take out may make more sense. We will be back. read more

Two lovely ladies were working behind the counter took my order and that of my neighbor. I asked about gluten free options and one went through options with me. I had the Big Norm Bibimbap (the sauce adds a nice punch though you can choose how much to add) and the Kakult Fruit Juice in kiwi. Both were absolutely fantastic. -- We ate at the small wall/counter on the side of the place. It's more of a take-out place than sit down option. The food was fresh and was made with care -- I cannot wait to order other things on the menu for my family. Yay! read more

BigNorm - BigNorm Bibimbap and Kiwi Yakult Fruit Juice - Korean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Ordered Uber eats and it came nicely packaged. Everything arrived safely despite me ordering tofu soup and a drink. I got the soondubu which was really flavorful and perfect for the rainy day. It was a bit salty but the flavor was so good I didn't really mind. I had anchovies on the side too - $4 felt a bit steep but I'd get it again because they paired really well with the rice and tofu soup. I also got a fizzy drink called Lemonade BigNorm Sparkles and it was really good! I'd be interested in trying this place in person in the future. Good experience overall :) read more

I am new to the neighborhood and found this spot on UberEats while perusing for my corporate comped dinner (due to working past 8pm), while I was internally crying due to working late - boy, am I glad I found this spot. This will surely be a new staple for me! I got the bibimbap and the jigae - absolutely delicious. I will be ordering from here again soon! So happy to support a locally owned small business in my new neighborhood. read more

It's totally worth the trip. We happened upon this restaurant after a trip to a a book store! My dying wish is for kimchi jigae to be my final meal, and this recipe overwhelmed me with joy!!! Staff was very friendly! read more

Welcome to the neighborhood! We finally have a real deal korean comfort food spot in south Brooklyn. This gem jumped onto the scene not long ago. Filling a small storefront I worry they will out grow very quickly. Some counter seating and one outdoor spot. But really it is a grab and go joint. Simple clean interior. Simple menu with Korean comfort staples. The staff is friendly and helpful. Service is fast and the food is out of this world. Best kimchi jjigae I have had since Seoul. Will be back to try all the other delicious options. read more

This is close to my house and I always walk past, struck by the odd name (not super Korean, let's face it) but the food is just terrific. I ordered the dolsot bibimbap (or whatever the takeout name for this is here) and it was great. The rice has a crispy crust on the bottom that really does the trick when you mix in all the sprouts, egg ribbons etc. I devoured this. For the hell of it, I ordered a $6 side of kimchi mandoo and these were excellent. The filling was savory and fresh and the wrappers were homemade -- or seemed to be. I do hope folks in the neighborhood can look past the slightly unorthodox name and give these people your business -- the food is so good, and who doesn't want a local bibimbap specialist that delivers? I'll be ordering from them again, and soon. read more

Really good!! The music played was really sweet and melancholy music. So there was a really nice ambiance. I ordered the tofu jigae and it was really amazing! It was the right amount of spiciness and was a really big portion. The lady at the counter was really sweet too. They do have some items off the menu: tuna onigiri and other onigiri I can't name on the top of my head. read more

The GoonMandu and Nuloongi Bimimbap were delicious, and the folks were so nice and friendly as I was trying to decide what to order. A great new addition to the neighborhood! read more

Wow, Big Norm's has the best Korean takeout ever! I ordered the jajangmyun which was super flavorful and the noodles were perfectly al dente. The japchae had beautifully cooked veggies and was delish. And the crispy rice bibimbap had crunchy bits that were so yummy with the big Norm's sauce! The food was beautiful to look at too. Everything was so clean tasting, you can tell they don't skimp on good quality food here even though they do mostly a take out business. A lot of care got put into the delicious tasting food and the well thought out packaging for delivery. They even accommodated my vegetarian daughter. Very special spot. I will definitely be ordering from here again! read more

Great food and very friendly staff. I have gone twice so far and tried the japchae, tofu bibimbap and miso soup. I would recommend all of them. Such a great addition to the neighborhood! read more

Delicious and fresh! Had it last week and I'm back again today! Dumplings, tofu bibimbap and beef bibimbap - all excellent!

Love BigNorm! Sometimes you go to a restaurant and the food looks nothing like the photos "from the owner" you see on yelp... Not the case here! The bibimbap is beautifully presented in person, and most importantly, delicious. Also love their yubu! read more

Ordered from this place twice already. My daughter loves the Jjajang Myun and she's choosy with her food. The ingredients are really fresh and it's a creative take on korean cuisine. We love it. read more

i absolutely love korean food, and was excited to order from this place; i got the tried-and-true favourite: bibimbap. after paying *$15* i received an underwhelming amount of food, ground beef instead of bulgogi, and no goddamned egg. seriously, guys... you can do better than this. read more

Wow. Finally, authentic Korean in the nabe. Small shop with very reasonable prices and food that's as good, if not better, as it is in Korea. The small shop adds to the authentic appeal, and you know their focus is on providing good, quality food. I got the bibimbap - and it's probably one of the best I've had. There's clear quality to the ingredients and a perfect blend of flavors. I'm looking forward to trying the kimchi chigae - my favorite dish - which the sweet shopkeeper said is made in a special way with pork ribs. They're pick-up and delivery only for now, with sit-down options to come. This will be my go to for Korean. read more
