    Spicy Pork Bulgogi Bowl
    Lei G.

    The spicy pork kimbap was delicious, warm & fresh. The spicy chicken bulgogi bento was tasty. And the spicy pork bulgogi bowl had a nice kick. Enjoyed all the dishes!

    Veggie Fried Rice
    Darla M.

    We went here late night around 9PM to try it out because it had good reviews and now we know why. The food was absolutely delicious. My husband got the bulgogi entree and I asked for the japchae with tofu. We also got an order of veggie fried rice and it's a dang good fried rice. The owner was very nice and patient while we looked at the menu and the place itself was cute and clean. Definitely recommend!

    The bibimbap was ok, not the best I had, there was too much sprout in the dish, and didn't have enough beef. But the fried chicken were great, very good flavor and crispy.

    Tofu bibimbap - delicious, A+

    I've been here a few times and have always enjoyed coming here when I need something to eat thats fast casual but not completely fast food. After climbing on Saturday night, I was hungry and wanted some soup. My favorite Korean soup is any kind of soondubu, which is a tofu soup. I love tofu, grew up eating it and its a staple in my diet. I came in here around 9pm and the owner (ahjussi- means middle ages man or boss) is always very nice to me. I ordered the seafood tofu soup, mild, no spice. He rang me up and my order came to a little over $15 with tax and with tip, was under $20 for me. You get a little buzzer that lights up when your food is ready. Ahjussi was nice and brought me my soup as it was very hot and steaming. I sat in front of one of the TVs and happily watched K pop videos while having my very hot and satisfying tofu soup. Even though I ordered it mild, its still a little spicy so be prepared for that. I can only handle mild. There were a few mussels in it, some squid and a nice plump shrimp. Soondobu was a little smaller than at other places but I didnt mind. It also comes with white rice (not purple) and the egg is already in the tofu soup. Also, note, no banchan (side dishes) is served but remember this is fast casual Korean. If you want an authentic Korean food experience, go to a tradition tofu soup house like The Stone Korean Tofu House in Mesa. My experience at GOGI made me want to take a trip to South Korea - I have always wanted to visit! Overall, I love this place and also know you're supporting local too. Ill be back again and again!

    Not from the Arizona area, but still a professional when it comes to eating good Korean food! I was really glad that the area had something so convenient for me to enjoy, along with the flavor being there! I thoroughly enjoyed this family's restaurant, I felt that the food was not oily and relatively well portioned for the price. The restaurant is clean, there is lots of seating, the menu is straightforward. This is just a personal preference, but I was a little bit sad that they didn't have any Korean sides. I would have really enjoyed some kimchi or even some radish has an optional side.

    This was my first time visiting Arizona, and I'm so glad I trusted my gut and gave this place a try! The portions were huge, easily enough to share among 3-4 people. My partner and I really enjoyed our meals, and everything was just as delicious as it looked. The dining area was clean, and the customer service was excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive, and never made us feel rushed. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in Arizona!

    Spicy Pork Bulgogi Hot Stone Bibimbap
    Aron J.

    A quick craving for bibimbap led me here. It's a self seating, order at the front restaurant. I orders the spicy pork bibimbap in a hot stone. Have no complaints on the food it was good. All parts of the bowl mixed well and was very balanced. Pork was not spicy but that is fine as they give you a bottle of sauce to adjust the heat to your liking.

    안녕하세요, This is a great place to check out Korean dishes without being yelled at by an 아줌마. This location has some new dishes and some spicy options. It is located in a plaza right next to Snowtime (convenient for dessert). The owners and staff are friendly and dishes arrive hot and freshly made. I love the many options of noodles, rice or soups/stews. If you like seafood you have to try the seafood pancake The dishes are a fusion of korean dishes with American palates which makes the food more appealing for those who may be overwhelmed by trying new dishes they have seen on a K-drama or in a K-pop video. Great fried chicken!They also have great tradional style dishes of gogi=meat or bap=cooked rice, chigae=stew, etc. I had their spicy pork with udon noodles which is usually a soup but came as a stew. It came in a flavorful gochujang sauce. It was a bit spicy tempered by a sweetness. As a Korean I can taste that recipes are a bit sweeter than traditional dishes, but that is not a bad thing. The dining area is relatively quiet so you can carry on conversations or enjoy some of the K-pop hits. The prices are fair and the serving sizes are sufficient. This is a friendly place to expand your palate and branch out to try some flavorful options. 잘 먹겠습니다!

    Vegetable yakisoba noodle with chicken and shrimp
    Haneen O.

    Met up with some folks for dinner here on a Friday evening. I don't find myself in this part of town often but it seemed fairly happening. This spot wasn't too busy when we arrived which was good. I ordered the veggie yakisoba and the protein choices were chicken or shrimp. I asked if I could get tofu instead since I prefer that. We grabbed a table outside and waited for our food. We were given buzzers to notify us when our dishes were ready. I grabbed our food from inside and noticed that mine had both chicken and shrimp in it, but I decided it was fine and ate my bowl. I liked it, I added some chili sauce since it was in the sweet side. Not too many shrimp pieces but there was enough chicken and veggies. I also tried the kimchi fries which were good. Service was friendly and our table enjoyed their food. I'd come back and try some different dishes if I'm in the area.

    Beef Bibimbap!! I can wear this all day!!! So flavorful.. SO AUTHENTIC!!!!

    Ramen regular flavor with pork dumplings
    Yu W.

    The fried chicken was an easy 10/10--crispy, juicy, and packed with rich garlic flavor. The thick sauce complemented the chicken perfectly, and the portion size was huge, making it well worth the price. The restaurant itself was clean, conveniently located, and had a welcoming atmosphere. The service was excellent--the server was always friendly. However, the ramen was just alright. It tasted almost identical to Shin Ramen straight out of the package. Don't get me wrong, I love Shin Ramen, but if that's what I wanted, I would've just made it at home. If you're coming here, I'd definitely recommend the fried chicken, but maybe skip the ramen.

    Galbi Bento Box
    Elliot S.

    I honestly love this place. I usually order the Galbi or Bulgogi Bento Box, both amazing. The sweet and salty combo of their meat marinade is delicious. The service is always great, it's the same guy working the counter every time I go in and he's really friendly. I highly recommend this place, it has a very clean atmosphere and always hits the spot.

We arrived a little after 5pm and the restaurant was mostly empty. But in the next 20 minutes it filled up and there was open sitting at the bar only. The mood was initially quiet but quickly turned more up beat as the restaurant filled and pop rock music was playing. We asked our waiter a few questions about a few of their rolls and he was very helpful with guidance and recommendations. We ordered Salmon Lemon, Spicy Tuna, Salmon Avocado Maki and California rolls to share for two. This restaurant uses purple rice rather than traditional white rice. This was the first time we have tried a sushi roll made with purple rice and we both loved it. It added a nutty flavor and hearty texture. Purple rice is similar to wild rice and far nutritionally superior to white rice with more antioxidant and fiber. Shortly after we ordered we were served a potsticker dish. I mentioned that we did not order the item and were informed the appetizer was complementary. We thanked the server and tasted the dish. The potstickers were nicely pan fried and had a great crust and flavorful chicken filling. Delicious! About five minutes later our rolls were delivered. All were fresh tasting and delicious. Our favorite was the Salmon Lemon roll. We loved the pop the lemon added. Honorable mentions to the Spicy Tuna roll, very well done, excellent balance of heat and flavors. We truly enjoyed our dining experience and look forward to returning. Highly recommended for a quality sushi experience!

I was dining solo and had no trouble finding a seat since there's plenty of seating throughout the restaurant. That said, I was surprised by how quickly the place started filling up after opening, which is always a good sign. One of the first things I noticed was the large sushi bar and being able to watch the sushi chefs at work. There were five of them, which I took as a sure sign this place gets busy. I ordered the spider roll, salmon avocado roll, and steamed edamame. Everything was fresh, well-prepared, and exactly what I was hoping for. One unique thing about Kodo is their rice blend. They use a combination of black and white rice, which gives the sushi a distinctive purple color. It's not something you see every day, and it definitely makes their sushi stand out. I also have a food allergy, and the staff handled it carefully and without any issues. They offer fountain drinks, which I always prefer. And I liked their plastic to-go container. It kept my leftovers from getting soggy by next day. Easy five stars.

The tuna and salmon pieces were a little fishy, maybe not the freshest, but it was also quite late (~10pm) so I wasn't expecting too much. Beautifully presented, and the cuts were quite large which was nice! The food came out pretty fast, and the service was pleasant. The restaurant vibes are pretty dark, and moody. The bathroom was kind of scary personally, super dark and a little messy, so I decided to wait till I got home. Overall, a solid experience, and definitely a good choice if I am in the area.

Hamachi is usually a little too fishy for me, but this just melted in my mouth and left me wanting more. We also had one of the specials, the 808 roll.

Never got my water refilled, had to flag them down to put in more food, that sorta thing. The vibes- thought the bar was pretty lit and is prob pretty fun during HH. The food- overpriced for what you get and portion size while the fish and flavors being a smidge above average. I left still hungry after getting the gold omakase, bad and buri roll, and hamachi crudo. The hamachi was the best part of the meal but I'd still expect at least 5 pieces for the price. Anyways, this spot will hit the spot if you have a sushi craving. I can't vouch for the drinks but I assume it more than checks the box in that regard judging by the menu, selection, and vibe. But know that you're in for some trade offs imo.

I don't remember which roll we got, I think it was the blue dragon one, but that was delicious, good amount of rice and fish and great flavor. The truffle rib pasta was good as well, the short ribs were cooked perfectly and the flavor on that was insane. I do wish that they would've tossed the pasta in the same sauce the rib came in before adding it to the red pasta sauce. The pasta sauce itself lacked flavor and just tasted like blended down tomatoes. If the pasta had a scoop of the rib sauce too, that would be absolutely insane!! For dessert we didn't have a choice and it was just the miso caramel cheesecake. Now that is some of the best cheesecake I've had in an incredibly long time. I don't taste the miso flavor in the caramel besides the salty sweetness of it but that combo was perfect, especially with the homemade candied pecans. I don't know if the cheesecake was left out or purposefully like that but I love how when the cheesecake was served it wasn't cold! Usually cheesecake is served really cold and kind of like a cream cheese brick you have to cut into it with your fork. But this was barely chilled so the cheesecake was not super cold and it just melts in your mouth. It's so smooth, best dish of the night hands down. This place was very nice and great location. Everything is clean and a great ambience. There's a bar you can sit at when you walk in before you go to the tables. I do think that every side smaller table should automatically have the table lamp for light because it was just too dark to see the menu from my perspective. It looks like great lighting in the pictures because the phone took it in night mode and corrected the lighting but... it's a bit dark and I saw that they do have those modern battery table lamps so I think every table against the wall should have it. Now onto why it's only 4 stars. The service was so beyond incredibly slow. I kid you not we waited 35min at least before our first dish was served and it wasn't even the appetizer, it was the entree rib pasta. You could tell just how short staffed they were and you could hear that there's only 1 sushi chef 1 regular chef and that's it for the kitchen. I don't know who is managing the shift schedule, maybe it's because we came on Memorial Day, but this type of service is not acceptable. I don't take this on the employees at all. They were so incredibly nice and apologetic and doing the best they can and even the front of house was now bussing tables to help out!!! Because they're so busy, I had to keep reminding different waiters for small things like ginger for my sushi 3x, refill on my water, and he almost said we're good to go without paying the check but we didn't even receive our cheesecake dessert yet OR paid the bill. In total it took us 2 hours from sitting down, ordering within 5min, and waiting and waiting and waiting to eat... inexcusable on management
