Love this hidden gem! So delicious! My favorite are the Bulgogi Kimbap and the spicy rose tteokbokki but everything is made so well and yummy! Great customer service and never disappoints! A must try! read more

Been to this place quite a few times and honestly everything about it is great. Bowls are nice proportions, bulgogi is juicy and tender, and menu has alot of options. read more

The food was fresh and delicious. The portions were very generous and quite filling. Will definitely be a returning customer. The owner was very kind and provided excellent service to us. Originally I thought this would be a sit down restaurant, but it is more designed for takeout. The food was well packaged and made it home piping hot (15 min drive). Their kimchi addition was a nice surprise when we got home. read more

I ordered the bulgogi kimbap, and it honestly tasted pretty bland. The bulgogi itself had some flavor and a slight sweetness, but the rest of the vegetables lacked seasoning. Each bite felt unbalanced--you'd either get a strong bulgogi flavor or a completely bland mix of vegetables. I also noticed they used chives, which I've never seen in kimbap before. The chive flavor was quite overpowering and took away from the other ingredients. Overall, I've definitely had better kimbap at H Mart. read more

Bunsik 88 - Bulgogi Kimbap (Beef) - Korean Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Solid grab-and-go spot for some kimbap! I tried the tuna mayo and spicy pork bulgogi rolls, and both were really good. It does have the look and feel of a chain (not sure if it actually is), and the kimbap pieces are noticeably larger than the typical market-style ones. Flavor-wise, everything was well-balanced and complemented each other nicely. The bites were a bit big for me, but still very appetizing and well-seasoned. I ordered two rolls without realizing how large they'd be, so I ended up with leftovers--next time I'd probably just go with one. The tuna was great, and the mayo didn't overpower it. There's a nice contrast of textures throughout. The spicy bulgogi sauce was a little different from the usual Korean-style--more peppery and slightly fusion-leaning--but still really solid overall. Packaging was clean and convenient in small boxes, and parking was easy and free. If you're into a more fusion-style take on kimbap, this is definitely a spot worth checking out. read more

Togo Korean comfort food. Small little shop with vibrant interior and super friendly staff. Primarily ordered a plate to go but saw that there were 2 seats available to sit and eat. Ended up ordering previously viral cheese coin. The rose Tteokbokki was creamy with a chewy rice roll. I'd recommend adding ramen to this since the sauce isn't as viscous. Good amount of fish cake inside. We got the cheese coin with mozzarella and the cheese quality was amazing. Made fresh and came out melted and hot for a nice cheese pull. Server said it's high quality and isn't mixed with other cheese. Would definitely come back to try their other stuff. Place is good for delivery orders! read more

So I stopped by this spot for some lunch today! The parking lot was crazy busy and packed. I did find a spot eventually and the owner was super nice when I walked in. I got the king size Bulgogi cupbop and he also gave me some sauces to try with the bowl as well. The portion size was pretty big and everything was delicious. Definitely recommend! read more

Was in the area and found this cute Korean snack good place so gave it a try. We arrived right around opening so there was no line to order. The store is very small inside as it is mostly meant for take out and not dining in. However, they do have a small bar seating with two seats if you want to eat there. We ordered the Popcorn Chicken Cupbap regular size (10.95) with the sweet & spicy sauce and two rolls of the Bulgogi kimbap (17.50). We opted to sit at the cute bar and waited for the food. The food was ready pretty quick and looked delicious. The cupbap meat portion was a bit less than I expected since the popcorn chicken pieces are small but it tasted very good. The sweet and spicy sauce was a bit spicier than expected but tasted very good with the popcorn chicken. As for the kimbap, the rolls are very generously rolled that are nice and fat of the ingredients. However, the bulgogi was a bit dry. They did give this sauce for the kimbap and it tasted very good when you eat it together. Also, they provided kimchi with your order. This could be a filling meal. Overall, this place has a lot of good options on their menu if you are craving Korean snack foods. Their food tastes pretty authentic as well and the portions are decent. read more

Was in the area so came to try out this place for lunch. Located in a busy plaza that has a market and multiple boba spots, it gets busy later in the afternoon. It wasn't too bad at noon when I arrived. There is only two bar seats inside so not much seating. You order at the counter and food was ready in 10 min. I got the popcorn chicken cup rice and bulgogi kimbap. Both were delicious, though their sweet chili sauce for the chicken can be a tad spicy. Portions were good. The rice bowl comes with some salad but not much. read more

I ordered on Doordash for the spam kimbap and tuna mayo kimbap. They were so delicious and just the right amount of filling. I like that you can choose to order one roll or 2 roll. I also didn't need any sauce. It was plenty flavorful. Didn't realize it was so close! I will be visiting in person soon! read more

I crave korean street food and this is the place to go! Definitely worth the price for what you get! Food: 10/10! I love getting the kimbap and tteobokki whenever I stop by! Every time I've tried this place, it's always a hit! Service: 10/10! There's always a lady who takes my order when I stop by and she's the sweetest! We always have some kind of small talk and I look forward to talking to her when I do visit. Ambiance: 9/10. Cute ambiance inside and interior, it just sucks that it is very small and it is like a stall. Definitely a type to just order and take to-go. Overall, love coming here and will def be back :) read more

Food is bomb. So family of 4 tried it for the first. Been wanting to go here for like 6 months. We walked and we kinda took forever figuring out what we wanted. I felt bad for the guy patiently waiting behind us. Turned out he was the owner!! LOL So everything was d*mn good. So even though they have the sizes in front of you, its kinda different when you get it filled with food. King size is ginormous. read more

Delicious kimbaps! Absolutely love that theres now a spot with amazing kimbaps. I got the galbi kimbap (which, like, whatttt?!) and the shrimp tempura kimbap ans both were delicious! Super fresh. One roll was like a perfect portion and so healthy. I also got the sausage and rice noodle skewer cuz I was curious and zero regrets. Great sauce. Super appetizing. They also have cupbaps and coin pancakes. Both of which i must try next time. Absolutely perfect for a snack, a whole lunch or dinner, to share with someone, a picnic, or whatever else youd like to do with delicious food. Very minimal space inside to dine, max two people id say. More of a take out spot. But would be perfect for like a little walk in schabarum down the street. read more

I haven't Korean street foods for years. This is the that provides the foods that I always wanted!! As a Korean, I guarantee the taste and quality of foods. The owner is nice and well-prepared. You will not regret it!! Some of my colleague told me this place and I loved it!! read more

I found this place on my newly found Fantuan App. I was intrigued when I saw a place that serves cupbap around here. The last time I tried a cupbap was in Idaho where I was not impressed. I ordered a bulgogi cupbap, a spicy pork cupbap, and an order of their fried shrimp all for pickup. With the coupons and discounts, it was a good deal. My food was waiting for me as I arrived. The cupbaps were enough for me to share with my wife and daughter. It tasted much better than the Cupbap restaurant. The meats in the cupbaps were marinated well they were generous in their portions. The spicy pork had a good spicy kick to it. Not enough of the glass noodles. We all liked it. The fried shrimp were okay. The gentleman working inside was nice and friendly. It was a good discovery for me to find this place. I probably will be back. read more

10/10 This place is the definition of a HIDDEN GEM. From their authentic kimbap to their creamy tteokbokki and housemade seaweed rolls, everything is insanely delicious with such great prices. Especially in this economy! Everything is made fresh to order, you can tell when the food comes out steaming hot. I also love their popcorn chicken cupbop, a healthy and cheap meal to take on the go. The owner is so kind and friendly, I definitely recommend this place and will be coming back! read more

We got the bulgogi kimbap and the teokbokki with sausage. SOOO good!! The flavors are perfect especially if you like spicy. Smelled so good immediately as we opened it. Even when we got the food to go, our food was still piping hot. Good bang for your buck and very quick service. The guy, I'm assuming the owner, is very sweet. Will definitely be coming back! A must try for quick cheap easy food. read more

They have really good kimbap. We tried cream cheese and katsu and it was bomb. Owner was very friendly and accommodating with explaining his new shop and menu items. It is a soft opening so I'm sure there will be some employee training but my experience went without a hitch and pleasant. Again the kimbap is bomb and perfect. Flavorful balanced and not too much rice as kimbap should be. I haven't tried their coin bread yet but apparently it's popular in Korea rn and is like boonguhbbang or taiyaki. Will be coming back for that. read more

Great service and menu selection. Not really any place to eat there where you won't be in the way. I would say TO GO only here. Kimbaps were freshly made and generously stuffed. Bulgolgi was too dry but I would try the others. The 88 roll has great variety and costs less too. I will be back to try a bowl and their other items. read more

Great food, service and price. My picky 10 yr old loves it we went back 2 days in a row.

Delicious Korean Street "comfort" food hits all the right spots! I learned that the recipes are from the owner's mother who had a restaurant serving similar comfort food in Korea. Very authentic flavors with fresh and quality ingredients makes Bunsik 88 a must try. Highly recommend the Galbi Cupbap and go for the King size, it's that good. It's served Galbi-chim style and the sauce is amazing. Poured over rice I could eat just that alone. The Seaweed Roll (noodle center) was surprisingly one of the best items too. Simple yet so yummy. Kimbap's are all generous in size, definitely go for the double roll they go quick! Service was quick and fresh, but call ahead for larger orders. Best for take out. Very casual atmosphere and ambiance. See you again soon! read more

came on a Saturday evening (7:50pm). we ordered the sotteok sotteok, bulgogi cupbap, and mozzarella won bread. the male owner was incredibly friendly. he told us it was take about 10 mins so we went next door to walk around and we picked up our order in 15 mins. sotteok sotteok - so good! the rice cake was crispy on the outside and the sausage made a good combo. the sauce wasn't too spicy or sweet, but balanced each other out! won bread - very FRESH & HOT. the outside is crispy and gives you a nice cheese pull! will try different fillings next time like red bean bulgogi cupbap - good portion size. the bulgogi meat isn't too sweet and it's delicious. it comes in the to-go container already so perfect to take home as well! come here early if you want the kalbi because they marinate the meat the day before and it's grilled-to-order. it's amazing how much quality they put in serving their customers. will definitely be back!!! i really want to make note that the owner is super sweet and kind. he told us he opened a month ago and sometimes he can get busy with online orders but still put care into the food quality. a lot of their food is made in-house and made-to-order which is so healthy and fresh. i love supporting small businesses! read more

Bunsik 88 - sotteok sotteok, mozzarella won bread - Korean Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Super cute and yummy. The shop is very small with two chairs for waiting and dining. They made everything to order so there is a wait. I ordered two tuna gimbap and two cheese coins. The tuna gimbap had lots of filling, which is nice. Compared to all the other stores, restaurants, marts, and shops they have the most filling. The price is also affordable and when you get two rolls there is a slight discount. The coin breads came out piping hot, so you get a beautiful cheese pull. They make the coins right behind the counter, so you can see your order being made. Service was also great. I have tried it dining in and to go and both times they have been kind and patient. read more

2.0 The guy was super nice and the place is so cute too so I was so excited and I really wanted to like this place but boy was I disappointed Dry, flavorless, oily, bland, HAD HAIR ‼‼ Kimbap's rice was hard.. it was bland overall, Hmart sells better kimbap than this. Besides the fact that there's HAIR in it, Cupbap had the most tasteless bulgogi ever, there was raw onions inside for some reason (?), mayo is supposed to help with the flavor but it didn't.. no taste at all. Gimmari usually contains little carrots n green onions but this is just glass noodles, its SO OILY literally dripping w oil and the outer batter is hard. Once again, also tasteless. read more

Yum! Had the Tuna kimbap, kimchi fried rice, and spicy tteokboki. The tuna kimbap was really well made, only (small) criticism would be to add some more other fillings to give the well rounded taste of a kimbap mix The kimchi fried rice was surprisingly tasty. I really enjoyed the balance of flavors (the fried egg on top was small but also, oddly, the perfect size for the bowl). The tteokboki had REALLY great flavor. Only small complaint would be it was a bit... soupier than I'm used to. But somehow still packed with flavor. Will definitely be back! Bonus points: the nice man at the counter remembered my friend who visited two weeks ago - down to remembering what he ordered! read more

I came across Bunsik 88 while getting boba nearby and I decided to go back to check it out. I ordered 4 bulgogi kimbap and a spicy tteokbokki. The interior of the shop is very small; it has one bench table with two seats. It looks like it was intended to be a takeout spot. The owner was very nice and courteous. He told me that my order would take about 10-15 minutes. I went to the grocery shop nearby to walk around and kill some time before going back to the shop. When I got back, I saw him wiping the edges of my tteokbokki container. I was impressed by how neat he was. He explained that my kimbap order would take a bit longer to come out because those were made to order. I didn't mind and I patiently waited in the shop. He said I could also call in to order so that the food would be ready for me to pick up the next time I come. I also had the opportunity to try their canned peach drink which was super refreshing on such a hot day! My friends and I were very impressed by the kimbap. The rolls are massive and so neatly organized. They had bulgogi, fish cake, spinach, yellow pickled daikon, burdok, egg, and carrots. The colors were so pretty! And the rolls were tightly wrapped so they did not fall apart when we were eating. The tteokbokki was pretty good. I think they used flour tteokbokki (I could be wrong). I didn't add any toppings. It was a good snack that satisfied my craving. I would come back to try their cup bop and to get more kimbap! I'm really happy that a Korean snack shop opened up here. read more
