B'Bimbap beef on brown rice
Scott D.

Nice new location in the Vintage Park area for this spot that we have enjoyed in Austin for some time. Nice to have one close to home. This is a counter service casual build your own bowl kind of spot. With Korean themed proteins and toppings. Both the KPop chicken and the Korean BBQ beef are very nice. They offer a nice range of sauces as well, ftomild to quite spicy.

Bing-bop-boom-boom-boom-bop-bam! The type of flavors they're on you wouldn't understand! But really though, the food here is really good. Even though it's a small chain, I had never heard of this place before but I'm glad they opened up near me. I can lead off by saying that I enjoy the food so much that I've been able to make a friend of mine a fan as well. I think I had recently ate Chipotle a few times the first time I decided to give here place a try, and essentially it's Chi'Lantro is the Korean BBQ version of Chipotle. I must say though that with the about of veggies they give you it is kind of funny to think of here as a "BBQ" place. Just like Chipotle the main entrace here are served as either a bowl or a wrap, which they call a ssäm. As it was my first time eating here I wanted to go with one of their customer favorites so I went with the #1, the Chi'Lantro B'bimbap bowl. This is a mix of white or brown rice topped with marinated beef, black beans, grilled corn, a fried egg, and green leaf lettuce and cabbage, garnished with cilantro, onion, kimchi, sesame seeds, and drizzled with a sweet chili sauce. I got mine with white rice and add ed grill veggies and caramelized kimchi. I also got a side of fries and a strawberry lemonade. When I got home with my food I did of course think the bowl looked very fresh but I also thought they didn't give me much meat. Diving into it however I was pleasantly surprised to find that they did give a good portion of meat with the bowl. That was enough food between the fries and the bowl that I believe I had food to eat for later. From a flavor standpoint I believe the food was very subtle yet flavorful. As I said before the food looked very fresh, and it tasted fresh with vegetables, which is exactly what I was looking for. The fries were fries they weren't bad but they were anything to rave about. The strawberry lemonade as well was cool but nothing to go crazy about. Since that initial visit I've also had the #2 K'Pop Chicken bowl and the Korean Fried Chicken Wings. Both were very good. My only issue with the chicken wings is that they were a bit small and I should have had them fried harder. They also have a nice selection of sauces there to choose from and I feel like honestly you can't go wrong with most of the sauces I've tasted. The restaurant itself has a nice clean feel to it on the inside. I haven't dined inside but I believe that has been someone eating inside each time I've gone there so that's an option if you want it. The staff as well has been very helpful anytime I've had any questions, include my most recent time when I had some issues with the app that they tried to help look into, and even though they weren't able to resolve it they were diligent in trying to help.

Their flagship bowl ft kimchi fries in the background

Went with friends for lunch. The place was very clean. I ordered the house specialty bowl as is- it was bomb. Service was fast and the male lead who prepared our meals was very hospitable. I got the sauce it came with and another sauce on the side (gangham I think) both were tasty. I would have gotten pineapple cream soda but they were out. Instead I tried the basil lemonade and strawberry limeade, both were great. In the background of my attached photo you can see my friends both attacking the kimchi fries, they were so yummy! I will definitely be checking out the Houston location soon as it's a lot closer to my house. I watched the shark tank episode when we left after seeing a picture about it in the restaurant. The founder seems like a great guy. Awesome experience all around.

I'm 1 and done if you can't even be bothered to read the order correctly. Ordered Chilantro B'bimbap with chicken and a couple other substitutions, (no kimchi, added a couple extra sides of sauces to try), and a side of chips and guacamole. Received normal B'bimbap with beef, kimchi, and no sides. Thanks guys!

I finally got to go to a Chi'lantro! Long time follower, first time diner! My husband, son and I went around 6pm for dinner and we all left full and happy. I had #1 bibimbap, my 9yr old had the quesadilla after he found the K-pop Chicken a little spicy and couldn't pass on the Kimchi Fries and Wings. Little secret, before pandemic, Louetta had a Korean chipotle style restaurant but it didn't do well because their flavors weren't right. Let me tell you, Chi'lantro flavors were so en pointe. The texture of their chapchae noodles and flavor was just right. Kimchi fries - I was hesitant because I don't like fusion but I'm so glad we ordered. It was a a really good blend of spicy, savory and textures Next day we came back for more kimchi fries, double the wings. The wings were so good, that's all my 9yr old wanted even if he thought it was a little spicy. No extra sauces are necessary. The way they come are excellent. On the second day I wanted to try a different bowl and it wasn't as stellar as the previous day. The sauces were too salty. The chapchae noodles were too salty. The spicy ranch dressing wasn't spicy, just salty. But we're coming back hoping they'll be as amazing as the other day.

I got the "KPOP bowl", and it was awesome!

I ate Chipotle earlier today and felt price gouged as heck!! Compared to them Chi'lantro clears the area! There was also a rude customer but the manger and employees took care of them respectfully and effectively, they were also super friendly and shoutout to them!! I also enjoyed the ambience super chill and relaxing!!

Create Your Own Bowl with Soy Glazed Chicken
Sapna S.

This was a brand new location of this restaurant that just had their grand opening so we got 25% of our order! I went with my sister and brother in law and we were all so amazed by how delicious the food was. This place is like a Korean/Mexican fusion style chipotle, where you go down in a line and tell them what you want in your bowl/wrap. I got the tofu noodle bowl and wow the flavors of the tofu, all the toppings and the spicy mayo dressing they put on top were delectable. The tofu was cooked perfectly, which some places don't do so I was pleasantly surprised with that. The other 2 bowls were create your own bowls with different types of chicken. The K'Pop chicken had a really nice flavor to it. The soy glazed chicken wasn't my favorite, but my sister really enjoyed it. We also got the kimchi fries, which took a while to actually get to our table. They were good, just wish they had more flavor to them. The fries by themself tasted pretty basic, but with the toppings and sauce drizzled on top elevated the flavors of it. There was a lot of seating available and it was spacious. All the workers there were super friendly and eager to help!

Kimchi Fries
Tommy C.

This brings back so many college memories and I'm glad they're open in Vintage park (only a few miles from me!). I love that their concept is Korean Tex-Mex fusion style. So you can get Korean food at an affordable price! You can build your own bowls, or ssam (burrito/wrap). Don't forget about their kimchi fries! I've had these throughout my undergrad years and these were life changing (and it's fully loaded with flavor too). Service was so quick and the employees there are super nice (they also help you navigate through the menu if it's your first time!)

Everything came out hot and fresh, just the way I like it. The chicken was lightly breaded and panseared to perfection! It was topped with Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. It laid on a bed of noodles covered in a delicious homemade white wine sauce, with tomatoes, broccoli, and a grilled lemon that added a nice touch to the dish. It was packed with flavor, and I thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end! I'm already looking forward to having it again! And I can't forget to mention the staff! They are always welcoming, polite, and pleasant, which makes the dining experience even an A++++!

I remember having a fairly good opinion of this bellagreen location in the past (before I had a…read moreYelp account), but my recent visit left a very unappealing impression. The self-service fountain drink area smelled strongly of mildew or old sponges, and the counter was very sticky and wet. I understand a mess during a lunch rush, but the lingering odor was a big turn off. I ordered a White Chicken Parm, and the chicken was unpleasantly rubbery in some areas- I regretfully had to spit out a piece, which I genuinely try not to do out of respect. Pasta was also too salty for my taste. The menu description also lists broccolini, but the reality was more of regular broccoli that was also soft to the point of being slightly mushy. I'm hoping the best for this restaurant, and also hope that this may have been an off day since there are recent good reviews; but in the meantime, I'll be exploring other Vintage Park options for lunch. - Ambiance: 2/5 - Food: 2/5 - Service: 4/5

The food used to justify the price. Now it feels like the menu got a raise while the kitchen took a pay cut. Our order was entered correctly, yet a completely different dish showed up at the table. Thankfully, the manager was professional and fixed the mistake immediately easily the most impressive part of the meal. The coffee deserves special recognition for achieving the impossible: tasting like hot water that once made eye contact with a coffee bean. As for the service, our server never introduced herself, never acknowledged the mix up, and seemed determined to complete her checklist without interacting with the customers. A simple smile or "I think this might be the wrong order" would've gone a long way. Instead, we got the hospitality equivalent of an automated email.

My experience started online , I made an order for pickup and when I sat to eat it, there were a few mistakes made that I could not just ignore. I hate being the guy who needs a correction or a refund etc. I'm real go with the flow and trust me I know EVERYONE makes mistakes so I never get angry or frustrated at all, but I spent my money there and thought I'd at-least call them to see if anything can be done. Well I spoke with management and they not only apologized sincerely but guaranteed they would fix the issue by remaking my order completely whenever I chose ! All I had to do was go in and say my name. Today I took them up on that offer and they made me one of the best bowls I've ever had from Cava in my life and didn't charge me a dime! They were friendly , nice , and most importantly professional about the entire situation. I am big on customer service , I own a few businesses and when I see people doing the right thing I think it deserves a shout out! So to all of the Cava staff this is my shoutout to you!

Whether it's trendy or not, I'm happy to say that after 2 years away, I can now revisit Cava with fresh eyes and a fresh perspective. Most elements of this shop have remained the same over the years. Fast casual customizable product. Simple straightforward options with a Mediterranean twist. Fountain drinks with a few worth while additions. They are however mixing things up with glazed salmon, seasoned pita chips and something strawberry sesame for the summer. I won't detail the ordering process because if you've been to any restaurant of this type, you've been to them all, but I will say that even though there were a few hiccups in my order (the crew was replacing meats, but did not replace the salmon leaving me with older salmon, and my greens ended up on top leaving a pool of sauce at the bottom of my bowl after confusion around limited power greens), they're still worth the revisit. They were slammed after all and even with the hiccups I enjoyed my bowl and appreciate the ingredient transparency. Happy healthy eating out!

My husband and I ate here many years ago that it doesn't even count since we couldn't remember our…read moreexperience. We ordered in the drive-thru during that time. Thus, we were literally in shock when we entered into the venue and realized that it is a SIT-DOWN RESTAURANT! I didn't think it would be fast food style like Popeye's or KFC. However, I imagined it would be along the line of Cane's, but a little more upscale. My first reaction was, "Aww man, I'm going to have to pay more for something that is already sort of pricey." I'm thinking in terms of tipping. HOWEVER, I actually had a really great time here. The menu is simple, yet unique simultaneously with monthly special burgers and Korean inspired flavors. I LOVE the fact that you can substitute the crispy chicken for GRILLED. I'm all about eating out, enjoying food, but also trying to select better options. Healthy eating doesn't mean boring! This place seems like an American/Korean fusion restaurant, or an Americanized version of Bon Chon. The vibe is really cozy, intimate, and chill. It's a great spot to casually hang out with friends or family. The wait for the chicken was long, BUT it was worth the wait. The food was hot and fresh. The Korean BBQ OG Grilled Chicken Sandwich - It was huge! Even though I am a petite 95 lb lady, I devoured that sandwich. The flavor wasn't an authentic Korean flavor, but it wasn't bad! It was more sour and salty for my taste. I think it would balance out more if there were no pickles, and a mixture of the kimchi carrot slaw + regular mayo based coleslaw. Szechuan Fries - The Szechuan mustard sauce is powerful and incredibly overwhelming. I do NOT recommend that sauce at all. I think if you order these fries, just OMIT that mustard sauce. I felt like all my sinuses cleared up and my eye balls were about to pop out. Dirty Fries - You can't go wrong with cheese fries. I am not a sour person, so I didn't enjoy the pickles on the fries. Our server, Brenna, was INCREDIBLE! She is the main reason why this review is getting a 5 star. She didn't know that it was basically our first time and she still gave us exceptional service. She was friendly, patient, and sweet. We ordered the Szechuan Fries because it was a free offer upon signing up for their rewards program. I told her I didn't like the mustard sauce and she offered to get us the Dirty Fries! I was like, "What?!" The fries were already free, so I didn't expect her to even offer a substitution. ALSO, for the Kid's Meal, she let us know that the side could be substituted for something else at no extra charge. If she didn't make that known to us, we would have had no idea. I'm glad she mentioned it because the boys LOVE mac & cheese, so that was perfect. Also, we were already getting fries, so it helped us to get more variety. All in all, the place is a little expensive, but I had a great time. The service was superb, the food was great, and I noticed that they are involved in the community. I love supporting businesses that give back. Thus, I would recommend trying this place out, even if it's just once!

Boy was I surprised to be seated by a hostess only to glance around to find a bar, enclosed patio and semi open kitchen. Did the meal itself differ from its fast casual counterparts? Not by much, but the offerings were more robust. I love to see pie on the menu alongside shakes, and while Mac and cheese and fries are welcome, orange chicken, Korean spices, broccoli salad, collards and heavenly eggs are a welcome change of pace. Our first trip (dine in) was about a 4-5 star experience. I waiter was not the most attentive and the food took quite awhile but the experience was positive enough for me to return. The second trip was a drive thru experience and it was...not as pleasant. Our service wasn't the best, our attendant less than enthused to be doing their job. A matter of fact, I felt like I was bothering her by ordering. While my food was fine, my sandwich came without napkins and again the food (one sandwich) took quite awhile. I'm unsure if I'll return with so many options in the area, but I'm glad I experienced them twice!

You can choose to sit either inside or outside. We went with the Houston Restaurant week menu which features some of their most popular dishes. For the appetizer, we tried the sautéed calamari and gumbo. The calamari had a nice creamy garlic sauce which paired well the sautéed bell pepper, onions, and tender calamari. Their gumbo is solid, not too spicy and had nicely cooked rice and a mix of toppings. The rice had a good bite and absorbed the flavor from the gumbo well. I would recommend the sautéed calamari. For entrees, we ordered the wild caught king clip and steak Diane. The very buttery king clip comes with sautéed spinach and is basted in a creamy, slightly lemony sauce which compliments both elements of the dish. The kingclip is garnished with micro greens and comes with an extra lemon for additional acidity, but I felt that it wasn't needed. The steak Diane had a medium cook and was soooo tender to the bite. I would recommend both, but partial towards the king clip if you want to try something unique! Lastly for dessert, I ordered the passion fruit crème brûlée which had such a unique flavor profile! The tartness of the passion fruit goes surprisingly well with the warm vanilla custard. The texture of the creme brûlée toasted sugar top was perfect as well and added a really nice crunch to every bite. My friend ordered their sticky toffee pudding, which was arguably the best one I've had yet. The toffee syrup is incredibly rich and adds a nice caramelized flavor to the ice cream and moist cake base. It's garnished with bits of sugary crumble and fruit. You really can't go wrong with either, but if I had to pick, their sticky toffee pudding is a must try. All in all, such a fun and intimate dining experience!
