    Spicy shrimp hot bowl
    JT T.

    I got a spicy bulgogi hot bowl, it was great. When i went there, the atmosphere was empty, but the food was fresh. Will def go back. I ordered thru the screens. It asked for a tip which not sure why if i just placed the order thru the screen. Tip for the cook? For doing their job? Wasnt sure about all that but to each their own. Would def go back.

    Absolutely incredible food. The service is fast and the sauces are next-level. I ordered in store and got the deluxe with bulgogi and a side for $27. I initially thought it was a high price, but I'm a big eater and still couldn't finish all of the food. Very good value and absolutely amazing flavor. I'd recommend this place to anyone! The bowl comes out hot, so you can get your eggs over easy and still break it and stir it in to cook it more if you prefer. I haven't had a meal this good in a while!

    I continue to enjoy this Korean bibimbap restaurant chain every time I come here. Their food is very fresh, their ingredients are great, and it tastes really good. If you want to light yet, flavorful bowl of food, you should 100% come here. I personally love the spicy bulgogi bowl with everything on it and kimchi fried rice.

    The food was very tasty. Nice selection and service. The price for the protein made the meal a bit more, but I guess prices are up everywhere in this post-COVID era.

    Takeout customers (who have prepaid) can go up to the counter to pick up their order. Dine-in customers can either place an order through the multiple kiosks available or via the QR code on the tables. We ordered via the kiosk (which features pictures), grabbed a number and had a seat. A waitress delivered our order to the table a short while later. There is a self serve area for drinks, chopsticks, napkins and sauces. We ordered the galbi, spicy garlic pork bibimbap, mandoo and the 5 pc signature wings. The ingredients were fresh and the dishes were hot. The galbi was delicious. The spicy garlic pork was also tasty but not spicy at all. I prefer the spicy pork at Palama Market in Honolulu, HI (Snack Corner at Makaloa) and compare all spicy pork dishes to that particular standard. There wasn't that much rice in the bibimbap, but they were generous with the toppings. The mandoo was standard but the wings were flavorful.

    First time visited on 12/10/2023. Ordered the Bulgogi Bowl with Miso Soup. It was pretty darn good! Just something to be aware of that they cook it fresh so it does take a bit to get your food after ordering at the kiosk. I would return to try a few more of their dishes.

    A decent lunch place. We came at 1pm on a Sunday and there was plenty of seating in their clean dining room. What I liked about it were the self-serve kiosks where you can order from pictures, which is always great if you're not sure what something is. The service is quick. The Kim chi ramen barely had any Kim chi, which was disappointing. But overall, great comfort food.

    Good bibimbap/kbbq place in Addison - just happened to come across it while I was in the area, so my friend and I stopped by for lunch. The ordering process is quite simple and efficient. When you walk in, you can just sit at a table and scan the QR code for the menu and order straight from your phone! The food is delivered to your table if you're dining in! The only negative is that if you use separate phones to open the menu and order, then it creates separate tabs, which is a little inconvenient if you're trying to pay together. They had a dine-in lunch combo, so we both went for that. I got the bulgogi bibimbap on hot stone with classic mandoo (fried dumplings with soy protein), and my friend got the BBQ chicken bibimbap with beef mandoo. The combo also came with a bowl of miso soup, so this was plenty of food for each of us. The combo comes with 2 mandoos, so we traded a mandoo so we could try the other flavor. I liked the soy protein (classic) mandoo, as it was rich in flavor without being overpowering. But honestly, I'm not a huge fan of fried dumplings. For the bibimbap, you can customize the egg, rice, and veggies in your bibimbap - I chose sunny-side-up egg, brown rice and got all the veggies listed (bean sprouts, kimchi, broccoli, carrots, etc.). I had a bite of the bbq chicken bibimbap, and I liked the bulgogi better. The bulgogi has more sweet flavor, and I personally enjoy the thinly sliced pieces more than the larger pieces of chicken. I loved the crispily burnt rice at the very bottom of the stone bowl! I had some rice left over at the end of my meal, but it was SOOO good! I would definitely come back for a casual lunch hangout!

    Went here for dinner tonight with our son. Dinner was good and service was good as well. The hot stone bibimbop was very tasty and my husband and our son ate everything and enjoyed it. They had their bibimbop with spicy pork and I had it with tofu. Mine tasted different than one at The Colony but still good. I think I prefer the one from The Colony a bit more.

    Spicy bulgogi kimchi bowl with dumplings, perfect egg on top, miso soup and spicy wings. I was starving!! Haha

    I had never been to Burning Rice but saw the reviews for this place and instantly got excited to try it. It was a provincial downpour and I walked to the restaurant from my hotel and was not disappointed at all. The great part was, I was able to walk right in, use the digital screen to order my food. The food was delivered perfectly Al exactly as ordered which was fantastic in the sizzling bowl. The fragrance of the food filled the restaurant as they put out some fantastic food. Soup was fantastic on such a rainy day. The wings were crispy and dressed to perfection. The crunch you want to feel with the juicy meat was absolutely there which o was craving that day. Can't say enough about the bowl as it was scolding hot, the kimchi rice was delicious. The kimchi spicy bowl was extremely flavorful, delicious enough to forget the fact that the restaurant got somewhat flooded and all of us were sitting in a pool. Haha I was there for work and I will certainly be visiting this place again and try some of the other items. Happy eating.

    Ordering and paying from the front kiosk was easy. You take a number and grab a table and drinks are self serve. Everything is made fresh so there is a short wait. There are three Asian sauces to compliment your order. We tried the bulgogi and short rib bowls. We customized them so we got to choose among different rice, noodles and vegetables. The order was brought to our table. Hot and delicious. I do recommend and I will be back. You can order to go.

    Good place. I've come here twice and I liked it. The food is super hot. Sauces are good. It's very basic but good and tbh it tasted fresh. I'm not Korean and I just really enjoy eating good food and I taste this place does good.

I do think prices were slightly on the higher end and service was a little slow, but again, given the circumstances, I personally did not mind. There is an impressive selection of banchan that could almost be a full meal in itself. They were all very fresh and high quality. I ordered the galbi and spicy cold noodles. The galbi came on a sizzling plate. It was tender and flavorful. However, it was expensive, at almost the same price of dinner AYCE KBBQ. I personally wasn't the biggest fan of the spicy cold noodles, not because it was bad, but more so due to personal preference. The portion size was very generous though. My family ordered the shrimp fried rice and bulgogi quesadilla. The fried rice was very solid; it had good flavor, texture, and they nailed the portion of vegetables, protein, and rice. The bulgogi quesadilla was also delicious and I appreciate the creativity. The combination of bulgogi, japchae, and cheese might sound sacrilegious to some, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

When I walked in, the place was empty. I stood at the "Please wait to be seated" sign for way longer than necessary--especially since there were no other customers. I finally peeked in and saw two employees busy counting receipts and money at the register. (Bad Impression #1). After being seated, I was actually enjoying the music until I felt something sticky on my forearm. It was a stray bean sprout left on the table (Bad Impression #2). To make matters worse, the tables are incredibly low. Even at my height, I had to hunch over the entire time. I eventually gave up on table manners and just held the rice bowl up to my face to eat comfortably. Regarding the food: it was a bit salty. The kimchi fried rice was average, but the kimchi stew really missed the mark. That was the moment I realized this is a fusion spot, not authentic Korean. It wasn't horrible, but it's definitely different from the real thing. BUT, can we talk about the massive portions? (Good Impression #1). Everything is clearly meant to be shared. The service was actually good. They have a buzzer on the table for service, which I loved. It saves you from having to track down a waiter. (Good Impression #2). The ambiance is loud, poppy, and "hip." You better like K-pop if you're coming here. It's not a first-date spot because it's hard to hear each other, but it's a solid place to hang out with friends who like the genre. Will I come back? Not actively. But if someone else suggests it, I won't fight them on it.

    JOA Grill stands out as one of the top Korean BBQ experiences in Dallas, delivering a modern,…read moreupscale-yet-approachable take on classic table-side grilling in the heart of Koreatown. The restaurant shines with its premium, high-quality meats--sourced thoughtfully, including standout options from 44 Farms--carefully selected and prepared by Michelin-recognized chefs. Whether you go for the popular Taste of JOA (Signature or Premier boards) or individual cuts, the beef and pork options consistently impress with rich marination, perfect tenderness, and that satisfying sizzle on the grill. Popular favorites that reviewers rave about include the marinated bone-in short rib (galbi), prime short rib, ribeye, hanger steak, pork belly, and specialties like flash-fried short ribs or shrimp. The meats arrive beautifully presented, cook evenly at the table, and deliver deep, savory flavors--often described as juicy, flavorful, and reminiscent of authentic home-style Korean cooking elevated with premium technique. Sides (banchan) are a highlight: fresh, generous, and "unreal" according to many, with standouts like mushrooms, Brussels sprouts, steamed egg soufflé, corn cheese, kimchi fried rice, and soybean paste stew (doenjang jjigae) that round out the meal perfectly. The experience wraps up sweetly with ice cream for a complete, shareable feast ideal for groups or celebrations. The atmosphere enhances everything: lively, stylish, and vibrant with a sleek, modern interior featuring neon accents that feels fun and energetic without being overwhelming--perfect for date nights, family gatherings, or special occasions. Service earns frequent praise for being attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, with staff guiding first-timers through the grilling process. Cocktails and drink towers add to the festive vibe, pairing beautifully with the smoky, savory food. Nuances and considerations: Pricing reflects the premium ingredients and experience (Taste of JOA runs around $42-$54+ per person, with upgrades for A5 Wagyu or larger parties), so value opinions vary--some see it as worth every penny for the quality and fun interactive element, while others note it can feel a bit higher-end for casual dining. A few reviews mention occasional inconsistencies in service pacing during busy times or subtle variations in ambiance depending on the crowd, but the majority describe it as consistently enjoyable and welcoming. Portions work best when shared, and the interactive grilling adds a social, hands-on layer that many love (bring a group to maximize the fun). Note that as of recent updates, the restaurant has been temporarily closed--check their website, social media, or call ahead for current status before planning your visit. Overall, JOA Grill excels at blending tradition with innovation: fire-kissed premium cuts, abundant flavorful sides, creative cocktails, and a lively yet comfortable setting make it a standout choice for anyone craving high-quality Korean BBQ in Dallas. It's frequently called one of the best in the city for good reason--great for meat lovers, groups, and those seeking an elevated yet fun dining adventure.

    Took me a while to write this, but I came back here because I had a good dinner here and decided to…read moredo a Korean bbq closer to my home. We were even greeted with a welcome back and given a welcome back coupon, which I loved, so the night started out well. Now for context to my frustration, last time we went here, our server cooked everything, so we only came back because we wanted to go to a Korean bbq specifically where they cooked the meat for you as well. Apparently, that isn't the norm. We ordered drinks and then waited a substantial amount of time before the servers came back to ask for our food order. Literally the table next to us ordered before us and we're basically near the end of their meal before we even ordered. Mind you, we were seated right in the thick of where the servers go in and out of the kitchen and you can see everything going on (or lack of anything). Drinks took forever to come and they started cooking one of the meats and then never came back. They kept walking past our table and not saying anything. We had to tell them that we needed help and asked if someone was going to cook for us. They apologized and would start cooking again only when we complained, but then would proceed to leave and not come back until we asked again. They kept giving us excuses that they were short staffed, which is understandable, but not when we can see them literally doing nothing about it. There was no sense of urgency or trying to work harder since they were understaffed. They would stand at the little computer at the door to the kitchen looking like they were doing something, while the rest of the restaurant was being ignored. We mentioned to them multiple times that we were being ignored and they offered to take care of us with dessert or maybe comp something at the end. At this point, I'm quiet because I'm visibly annoyed by the incompetence and got to the point where I didn't even want to talk to the staff anymore. I kinda have RBF, so I know they were feeling my frustration. We were almost done eating and were waiting for them to start cooking the shrimp, which was the last meat on our combo, and the server came by and asked if we wanted the check. I was like, "we aren't even done eating, we were waiting for someone to cook the shrimp." Now if they initially told us that we would be cooking, this all wouldn't be a problem, but we were under the impression that they would cook our food, which was the root of the entire service problem we were having. Finally, they came by with desserts that were on the house, even though I really wanted them to just comp something instead, but they didn't give us the option. We didn't even want dessert, but were forced to eat it because they felt it was a good solution to the problems with service. They even asked if we wanted a shot on the house, but I didn't want to drink alcohol that night, and when I refused, they teased me about it. It's my business if I want to drink or not, but don't assume everyone thinks alcohol solves everything. That left a sour note in my mind and sealed the deal that we won't come back. For how expensive this restaurant is, they need to have top tier service, and this was not it. I suggest you stay away!
