Great spot for a quick and satisfying meal. Ambiance is clean and casual. The tteokbokki sauce at Dookki was seriously good, rich and flavorful. The Honey Brown sauce was incredible - easily my favorite. The chicken was the highlight: super crispy outside and juicy inside. Rena was amazing as well. She was not only extremely kind and attentive, but also had such a warm and lovely presence that made our visit even better. Overall, a really solid experience read more

Dookki - Honey brown - Korean Near Me - Fullerton, California

We had the original tteokbokki sauce, and it was delicious--perfectly balanced, not too spicy or too mild. Next time, I'd be open to trying a spicier level. It would be great if we could choose our own toppings like in Korea. Our dish could've used more veggies, and having to request each topping individually felt a bit inconvenient. Maybe the staff just needs to help when adding the sauces at the end. It would make a big difference if the staff had a friendlier attitude--it really goes a long way in improving the overall experience. Surprisingly, the fried wings were really good! We got the sauce on the side but barely needed it, since dipping them in the tteokbokki sauce worked perfectly. We were there at opening time and it was packed. But space is very ample so it didn't feel too crowded. Overall, my second visit was a good experience, and my friends enjoyed the flavors as well. read more

Dookki is fantastic. You build your own tteokbokki from start to finish -- choose your sauce level, then load up on rice cakes, veggies, noodles, and toppings. If you like the assembly-line concept of Chipotle but love Korean flavors, this is your spot. We also tried their Honey Brown chicken wings -- crispy and packed with flavor. Just my suggestion: they should consider selling ice-cold beer. With the World Cup coming up and their spacious interior, this spot would be perfect for a chimak night (chicken + beer) -- maybe even some "tteokmak." Big screens, cold drinks, spicy bites -- it would make an ideal spot for a sports night. Fun concept, good value, and great for groups. Fullerton needed this! read more

There's a waitlist as this place just opened (worth the wait) but you are immediately greeted as you walk in and the concept is build your own custom rice cake tteokbokki. The company is originally from Korea, so I was super excited this California location opened up! Food is great and customer service is friendly! read more

I'm so excited that they open a dookki in Cali, always wanted to try it. I was expecting all you can eat like in most other places. But this was good too. The services was really nice and attentive. We came at a good time so the wait wasnt too bad, they have option to text you when your table is ready. You can walk around the plaza (target, Ross, Barnes &Noble, etc) My friend and I got the regular size with the best dookki sauce (spiciest they have) and friend chicken. We eat pretty spicy and this was the perfect level for us (bit less spicy then fire noodle) not too overwhelming maybe will for some people. We will definitely come back when we crave rice cake. On side note: it's prob just funny to us but I would recommend having smaller Togo boxes for leftover. They were huge lmao. Also it would be nice to serve some ice water. The water was lukewarm and we constantly have to ask for more ice. It gets kinda awkward read more

Went for the first time today and it was an amazing experience. The One Size Build Your Own Pot ($34.99) is A LOT of food and they have a nice selection of add-ons. We got the Mixed Fried Snacks and Fish cake skewer which was so good for an affordable price. The service was good, we got seated right away and were helped swiftly. The ambiance is nice and the restaurant is clean. There is a lot of parking and ample seating in the restaurant. 10/10 would come again to try more menu options!! read more

Went on the waitlist around 5:22 and got seated after 45 minutes. The wait wasn't so bad, but the entire process was extremely messy. We got up to order and there was only one person at the ordering station so it took a while for them to get to us. We ordered a tteokbokki, a pouring cheese, soy garlic chicken and two drinks. First, the pouring cheese did not come with our tteokbokki, we ultimately had to cancel it. The soy garlic chicken was also forgotten about and at this point we'd been sitting down for maybe 40 minutes. We decided to just wait for it since we had nowhere else to be but there were a few workers scattering around. They forgot to bring us water like three times. It's clear they're severely understaffed and ill-equipped to handle such a crowd. The food was ok, but it's extremely uncomfortable, messy, and like half of our order was forgotten about. Lol. At this price point, I expect better service. Won't be coming back unfortunately. read more

We checked out Dookki after seeing it on social media and also some friends told us about this DIY ttekobokki place so we wanted to see what it was about. The place itself is really big, clean and everything looks relatively new. So to get started, you basically go down a assembly line and tell the worker what you want in your tteokbokki. There is quite alot of options for noodle type, veggies, meat, sauce type, and other add-ons. We got a variety of ingredients, pretty standard, and went with the rose sauce. It comes out cooked, and it placed on a burner to keep it hot. It was really good, spice level not too bad, and it's very hearty and filling. We also got the K-fried wings, sseottok skewers, and sundae fry. The wings I thought were the standout for me, with the cheese powder on it, very good. The sundae fry we really enjoyed too, and combined w/ the tteokbokki sauce, it was on point. Overall, we really enjoyed it, and want to come back. read more

Great selection of options for items to add into your tteokbokki. The staff was kind but the restaurant was a little too warm for a winter night. The Rosé tteokbokki that we ordered was really good in quantity but just lacked a little bit of the flavor that we've had from other restaurants. Overall, would go again as it's a great price and a fun dish to share with a significant other or friends! read more

Worth the Wait We waited about 1 hour and 30 minutes for a table at Dookii, and honestly - it was completely worth it. The staff was incredibly welcoming, kind, and attentive the whole time, which made the experience even better. We went with the rosé sauce for our tteokbokki, and it was the perfect level of spicy for us. We ordered the Regular, Cheese, and Cheese Corn tteokbokki, all delicious, but the Cheese tteokbokki was definitely my favorite, followed by the Regular. The Cheese Corn was good too, just more of a sweet-savory combo. For add-ins, we got some bok choy, green onion, enoki mushrooms, cabbage, and sausages. All the veggies were fresh and cooked perfectly in the sauce. The sausages were just okay, just like a mini hot dog (so I'll probably skip them next time). Also got ramen noodles, which were a perfect addition. We also tried the garlic butter fries which were super tasty, though a bit smaller in portion size compared to everything else. Still worth getting. And finally we got the boneless K fried chicken thighs. Moist, flavorful, and the crunch on the outside was perfection. Great contrast to the soft and chewy tteok. (Forgot to snap a picture) This is absolutely a *go-with-friends-to-share-everything* type of spot. We'll definitely be back! read more

Dookki definitely deserves all the hype it gets. It seems to be quite busy even on a random Tuesday, but that's good. We spontaneously came here and were able to get a table for 5 in about 20 minutes. After being seated, you go to the front and the food comes out family style. You can choose a lot of different topping to add to your tteokbokki, so its great for multiple people. They also have a few flavors of fried chicken to choose from. We tried the soy garlic and the yangnyeum. Both were great, the soy garlic was a bit light on the flavor but still delicious. Staff is definitely very friendly. Will definitely be back again soon read more

Great food and service! We got their combo #1 which came with the tteokbokki, rice bowl, cheese fries, and fried platter, as well as two drinks. It was a good amount of food and everything was delicious. The tteokbokki was cooked nicely and the food came out pretty quickly. The service was great as well. Our server, Mahbi, was attentive and helpful. Will defintely come here again! read more

This is a really unique topoki place to try as there's nothing else like this in the area. I appreciated how many different options there are to customize your food! I really liked the cheese stuffed rice cakes. The rosé sauce is on the sweeter side ( even for my friends with a low spice tolerance) so next time we want to order a little more spice. It's nice to be able to put what you want! Their chickens are really yummy as well and you can't go wrong ordering any of them! read more

Listen, you HAVE to try this place. Period. Why? Cause u dont really know how good Teokbokki is until U TRY IT. Many people think this is all about fish, and its so far from the truth its actually funny. I cant even describe Teokbokki. What I can describe is how great this place is, from the setting and decor, to the service which, I have to admit need a tad bit of improvement: you should charge FIRST before u order the food u want, so u can get ur number and place it on the table, and then proceed to build ur teokbokki with a ticket system if u may. The way how u have to sit first, leave ur stuff on the table (unnatended if both people want to go to the topping station and choose) is very unorganized IMO. This is not South Korea no matter how much u wish it was, and people COULD steal ur bag if u just leave it there. If u guys fix that ordering system, this place is going to be a fan favorite even more than what it is now.. read more

Had a great experience the first time so I came back today. We had a party of 6 so immediately they tell us they need to add 18% gratuity. Which is fine, but there was no service. They never come by your table or refill water unless you flag them down, so not sure why we need to tip. They ran out of their honey brown chicken so we got the regular and the chicken was so dark. They need to change up their oil more frequently, it looked nothing like the photo. And for a place that sells rice cakes, they give you very little rice cakes inside. Overpriced, but the sauce is tasty. read more

I LOVE DOOKKI! Was put on this place by some of my classmates and it is absolutely perfect for a casual celebratory meal! A big bowl of tteokbokki is $30 and it easily split between 4 of us, accompanied by some sides and an order of chicken wings. I'd recommend getting the corn cheese tteokbokki! Never had anything like it since this place and it's just SO GOOD. Service is great and quick! Even with it being my first time there with my classmates, the servers walked us through the process of ordering, paying, etc. New go-to korean food place in Fullerton! read more

this was soooo delicious! i love the self serve style of tteokbokki so much. its all you can eat for $30! you can share this with 3+ people it was just me and my friend but there was sooo much leftover. the sauce is so good and so warm. i love the variety of rice cakes and fish cakes so much. i also tried sweet potato rice cake for the first time. i would come here again with more people! read more

I came here yesterday around 3:00PM by myself, though I definitely recommend coming with friends/family since the portions are huge! I ordered tteokbokki with the best sauce, pouring cheese, fried snacks and boneless honey brown chicken. The tteokbokki was really good. They had so many options and all the food was so fresh and delicious. The fried snacks were a great add on as well! Additionally, the fried chicken was so crispy and flavorful. Definitely one of the best I've had! The service was alright, sometimes a bit inattentive. But overall, it was nice. The ambiance was cool too, and I enjoyed how the tables were set up. All in all, I had a good experience eating here--I'd definitely come again and would recommend it! I have plenty of leftovers that I'm going to enjoy for the next few days haha. read more

It was my first time at a tteokbokki buffet type place and definitely not my last. It's kinda giving Korean, chipotle, hot pot, malatang. The food was so awesome. I like how we can customize our order however we want with a lot of different ingredients and sauce. I got the rose flavor sauce since I don't like too spicy and it was perfect. After ordering our food it didn't take long for them to prepare and bring to our table. We also ordered the soy garlic and that was also bussin! Super saucy, juicy and crispy. I came on Saturday around 5pm and we got seated immediately for a party of 2. I can tell the place is pretty popular by how many people were already there during early dinner hours. The restaurant itself is large too. read more

Very odd. Came here on opening day at 6:30pm (closing time 9pm) to find out that they are no longer taking guests? The restaurant was full of people and the waitlist didn't even seem long. No reason given why they couldn't seat us. I love korean rice cakes and was very excited to try it. Will update my review in the future. But just wanted to give a heads up to some people and to confirm what other people have been experiencing. read more

Unique concept -- I've never had a build-your-own tteokbokki pot (kind of like malatang-style) but I wish there were more. One price and you can add as much stuff as you want in the pot (there is a weight limit though). They have a wide variety of toppings including different rice cake types that were fun to try. Portion size is good to share with two people alongside an order of chicken. I would recommend it if you're craving tteokbokki !! read more
