    Updated Review - I returned in March 2026 and had a delicious Korean lunch, very much the same experience as several years ago. All the pictures attached are new. The place is run by a super nice older lady, there by herself doing everything. Beautiful, colorful bibimbap, had the spicy pork and it was great, as were the pot stickers. Vibrant, fresh colors and flavors in the bibimbap - see the photo. After lunch I had a nice chat with her and she's just charming. I'm guessing the horrible reviews of a bad manager were of someone else. Here's my initial review from 2020: Had a terrific lunch here - five ingredients in a bento-style box, each one delicious. The place is chock full of Korean stuff - food, candy, tchotchkes, reminded me very much of shopping in Little Korea. The mother and son team cooking and serving are adorable, incredibly sweet and eager to please. If the place were a little cleaner and kept neatly I'd give it five stars, but the clutter actually made it feel more authentic. I had a blast trying this undoubtedly authentic food and look forward to the next time.

    There's not a lot of choices of Korean food in the area and had a big craving for some kimbap. This place popped up on my search result so I decided to pay it a visit. The café is located in a strip mall. I walked into a cozy cafe, ABBA playing on the speakers, an eclectic mix of Ramen, Korean memorabilia toys, and games. It felt like I was transported into an authentic Korean shop of yesteryear. I think I hit the jackpot! Was hungry and excited so I did not pay attention to any of the signs and just walked up to the register to order . The wonderful aroma coming from behind the counter made my mouth water. Then the lady, in stern grandma fashion asked if I wrote down my order? Dang it, hunger pangs - was not prepared! Should've read the directions. I quickly wrote down "Kimbap and mandu". This was followed by an even sterner "what kind? And you know you should have called this in bc now you have to wait." Shoot double unprepared! Outsiders might find this rude or offensive, but you have to keep an open mind when trying authentic cultural cuisine. I knew that my food was going be amazing! Boy was I correct! Kimbap was one of the best I had! I don't have to drive downtown for some authentic Korean food. Highly recommend the food and great place if you are looking for a quiet lunch. For those who are closed minded and entitled this might not be your scene. Definitely would be back again - this time more prepared of course.

    We all cleared our plates! So good!

    So good! The beef bulgogi was to notch! Great dinner and portions were a good size. Food was out quick and the kimchi and pickled radishes were so good!

    Sweetest lady she makes every by hand even though it's hard. Family owned and the food is high quality. Homemade was is SO good.

    Dirty Floors!

    Food is good, but tables and floors were really dirty. Floor looks like it hasn't been mopped in years!

    Dosirak is a hit with my family. The food is delicious and the ambience is cozy and personable. There's always a different snack for us to try when we go. We love getting the Kimbap and cupbap but recently tried the kimchi-jjigae since it's cold out and it's 10/10. The owner Ms.Kim is a gem and knows whats shes doing!

    Very lovely mom and pop Korean restaurant! From a first impression, this restaurant is unassuming. Food is served on plastic trays. There's styrofoam water cups. Very simple and straightforward decor. But the food and owners were phenomenal! The food is comforting and tasty. You can tell that it was homemade with care. The ambiance was very inviting, warm, and personable. And I think that is what keeps customers coming back. The Dosirak lunchbox was a great deal! You get a combo of meat, rice, kimchi, tempura, dumplings, and the side dish of the day. The spicy pork was to die for!! Def my favorite! And the portions were very filling. The side of the day we received was a cheesecake eggroll- very interesting but good! We also got an order of dumplings, which were 10 for $8. Amazing deal and very tasty! There's also a mini grocery store inside the restaurant. There's a small selection of Asian snacks, such as ramen,chips, cookies, ice cream. I'm so glad I stumbled across this gem!

    HUGE SHOUTOUT to XAVIER, the BEST HOST I have EVER encountered!! It was mine and my wife's first…read moretime ever coming here and Xavier, even though they (I'm unsure of their pronouns and I am so sorry I did not ask while there, I was just completely blown away by the quality of service) were super busy and had a lot of guests already there, they took the time to explain the menu FROM MEMORY PERFECTLY and answered all of our many questions, most of them before we could even ask them, that's how PERFECTLY they explained the menu!! From there, to my utter disbelief and complete pleasure, the service ONLY GOT BETTER! I am making sure to capitalize certain parts for emphasis because words truly do not do justice for the quality of service provided by Xavier! They checked in on us the perfect amount of times and at the absolute perfect times, they refilled our drinks before we even had to ask, they checked to make sure we had everything we needed, they checked to see how we were enjoying everything and asked if there was anything they could do for us, they asked the whole room if the TV volume was too loud or too quiet or just right and adjusted accordingly (it was a tad too quiet, so their asking and adjusting took our whole experience to a completely higher level), and when we were finished they came and asked us if we needed anything "to go" containers which we did, they even gave us a bag and also threw in a set of utensils each for us, some napkins, and a couple of each of their sauce packets to ensure we could enjoy the same tastes that we did while we were there!! I mean, just absolutely 1000% stellar service from Xavier! And all with not only a smile, but a smile with a warmth to it, and a friendly and inviting and caring aura and demeanor, I truly just can not put it into words, you HAVE to experience Xavier's service for yourselves! I have been to many restaurants from holes in the walls to upscale Michelin star restaurants and I have never written a review for any of them but I absolutely had to write a review so that anybody thinking about coming here could see this and know that if Xavier is there, you are truly in AMAZING hands and you will ABSOLUTELY be taken care and made to feel like family no matter how many other guests are there! Thank you so much Xavier, from the bottom of mine and my wife's heart for making our experience here completely OUT OF THIS WORLD and truly EXTRAORDINARY!! I pray that you are there when we come back again! We would also like to shoutout the cooks, Xavier mentioned them to us when taking to us, I believe their names were Key (possibly Keith? I apologize!) and Sebastian! The food was absolutely divine! We ate so much until we couldn't eat anymore and had to take the rest home with us but I'm not even mad about it, the food was so good and the leftovers I'm sure will be absolutely delicious as well tomorrow! Next time we are in town this place, this shrine and palace of Dragon Ball, is an ABSOLUTE MUST STOP AGAIN spot for us!! Thank you again so much Xavier. You didn't ask me to write this review, you never even brought it up, you didn't even want to take our tip, but that's just another tell of how I know your service was so absolutely raw and beautifully genuine. You are a light to this world, you are an absolute asset to this restaurant, and you have done what Michelin star restaurants and my English professor could never make me do and that's write a whole essay of a review! But you truly deserve the recognition, the praise, (a better tip next time and a makeup tip for today!), and so so so much more! Thank you Dragon Bowl C for employing such an amazing human being and such good cooks to cook us such delicious food! (I copy and pasted my review from my Google review but Yelp is limiting me to 5,000 characters which is crazy that I've written over that total so I'm going to delete some of my Google review that I'm going to reiterate here. Xavier's service and the food the cooks Ke (spelling?) and Sebastian made were so EXTRAORDINARY and DELICIOUS that I made a Yelp account just to post my first Google review onto Yelp as well! THAT is how amazing it was to be served by Xavier, to be in such a shrine of my favorite childhood anime, and how delicious our food was! It deserved AT THE VERY LEAST a review, and I PROMISE to do more next month when my wife and I are in town! I am so extremely sorry and absolutely ashamed of myself for not having any more cash save a $5 bill because the service we received in those 30 minutes alone was worth at the minimum 10 times that, $50 at the absolute least, and the food is nowhere near that per person! That's how amazing the service experience from Xavier is! I swear to you that I will make it up to you next month Xavier!! My wife wants to make sure to tell you that she agrees with everything I have said in this and so much more, you were an absolute joy and pleasure to talk to and a light to us both!)

    amazing fresh food…read more great check em out setting is great place is clean staff is kind great awesome !! thank you
