Small shop located inside Beseto. Been wanting to come here for years and am severely disappointed…read more I asked if I could have freshly made Bungeoppang (Korean Fish Shaped Filled Dessert) and the lady insisted the ones sitting out in the open (exposed, no cover) were fresh (they had very minimal heat to them and were a bit soggy) and didn't bother making fresh ones despite me asking 2-3 times. Got all 3 flavors-Red Bean, Vanilla, and Chocolate. Vanilla tasted like store bought vanilla pudding mix and the Red Bean was too sweet and not appealing. The chocolate maybe was the best but it didn't taste all that or like the best quality chocolate. The batter was soggy or no crunch whatsoever. I usually never regret trying new food spots, but I regret spending money here. What a shame.

My one compliant was that one of the times I went, it was really hot in there, perhaps the day of the Arbutus Festival in May 2024. If in Arbutus, this is a solid option for a bubble tea.

I won't really speak on the service, but there was one employee making the drinks and he was HUSTLIN. By the time my bestie and I ordered, it got super busy.

I gotta come back and try the food next time.

On the other hand, the hot dogs on a stick are still delicious and worth it!

TLDR: BeSeTo in Catonsville is a beautifully renovated Asian food court offering generous portions,…read moreexcellent Korean comfort dishes, and a fun dose of Korean culture through its downstairs shopping area. A must visit if you enjoy authentic Korean food and variety. BeSeTo Food Court in Catonsville has become one of my favorite local spots. Located right next to H Mart on Rolling Road, BeSeTo (short for Beijing, Seoul, Tokyo) occupies the space that used to be the longtime Hanori food court where I had been going for nearly 15 years. The renovation here is massive in the best way. The entire space feels brighter and more modern and the mix of vendors has improved dramatically. The food court is now located upstairs and features five total vendors offering a wide mix of Asian comfort foods. Over the course of a dozen visits I have tried all of them and everything has been fantastic as well as fairly priced. Some of the absolute must tries are the kalguksu with its rich handmade noodles, the sundae which is incredibly hard to find locally, the jajangmyeon and jjambbong duo for when you want to go classic Korean Chinese, and the jokbol when it is available. Portions here are extremely generous, many large enough to share, so it is well worth coming with friends or family. Ordering is very simple. Each vendor has a numbered menu and you can order easily in English if you do not speak Korean. Food comes out fast and always piping hot which makes it a perfect spot for a quick lunch or casual dinner. Downstairs you will find the shopping vendors specializing in Korean home goods. They carry everything from cookware and tabletop items to traditional style furniture and even herbal supplements. Browsing through the aisles genuinely reminded me of the household stores I visited in Seoul and it adds a cultural bonus to the overall experience. Overall, BeSeTo is a gem in Catonsville and a must visit for anyone who loves Korean food or wants to explore a slice of Korean culture. Generous portions, great pricing, and a refreshed space make this an a homerun pick.

I recently visited Iron Age and had such a great experience…read more The atmosphere was lively, the grill stayed hot the entire time, and the service kept things moving so we were never waiting long between rounds. It's definitely a fun spot whether you're going for a date night or with a group. For meats, my favorites were the seasoned steak, soy pork bulgogi, and the Hawaiian bulgogi -- all were well-marinated, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. You really can't go wrong with any of those. The sides were just as good and really completed the meal. I especially enjoyed the grilled veggies, kimchi, and the cheese cream corn (which was super creamy and a standout). Also, don't skip the lemon drops -- they were really good and paired well with the whole experience. Overall, this is one of my go-to Korean BBQ spots in the area. Great food, great vibes, and a place I'd definitely come back to.

From their steak cuts, I think the Iron Age one was our favorite. And of course the classic bulgogi meats

It is still a bit far (35min), but doable.

I had originally made the nice lady very nervous with my request and she tried to convince me to try the dish that was advertised with the glass noodles, but i assured her that it would be fine as i normally eat noodles without soup. I ordered the 3 oil noodles with ground pork. It was very tasty. Especially after i added vinegar and the house chili oil. Definitely coming back.

One of the highlights is the handmade noodles, which you can customize in thickness, from delicate angel hair to something as hearty as fettuccine. The menu has plenty of variety beyond soups, including dumplings, spring rolls, stir-fried noodles, and oil-tossed noodle dishes. I also tried the braised intestines on the side; while they were well-prepared, the texture wasn't quite for me--I'd probably enjoy them more if they were fried. Ordering is convenient, whether you prefer doing it in person, through the app, or at the kiosk. The space has a good number of tables for dining in, and there's even a piano if you know how to play. Overall, it's been a consistently enjoyable spot for lunch.
