Ahh I love invigorating Korean food. Came to this place after having a silver spring adventure and…read morewe exhausted. This food put satisfying smiles on all our faces. I ordered a tofu soup with miso base and a kimchi pancake for the table. The pajeon was so appetizing I may have forgotten to take a picture before we dug in, and the tofu soup was just very warming. I didn't want anything spicy or I would've gotten a jjigae. You'll notice if you come here that this place is frequented by local Koreans, which tells you this is a good spot haha

Not sure I'm following the collective psychosis that believes Yett Gol is good, let alone anything…read morespecial. The seolleongtang mostly tasted like the salt that was added tableside. The predominant flavor of the kimchi jjigage was gochugaru. The haemul pajeon didn't have much seafood and came with several burnt spots. The japchae was extremely oily and included very few vegetables. I make better Korean food at home just by watching Maangchi videos. Speaking of videos, the only reason I found this place was through a TikTok, which offered a rave review and showed a packed restaurant. I guess this is how I know FoodTok has officially reached the mainstream, because I'm seeing more and more staged scenarios and dubious opinions. The only thing anybody had anything positive to say about was the rice, which was technically perfect. There is an old adage that goes, "you can judge a restaurant based on how well they cook their rice." But if you have a table full of food and the only thing people want to finish is the rice, then you've got a whole other problem.

OMG I can't believe I let almost a month go by without writing this! We went for DGD's birthday…read moredinner back in March and it was terrific. Parking isn't fun - there is a big garage across a very busy street, and it's free, but man! taking your life in your hands to cross? No thanks! Anyway, we had to wait somewhere around 5 minutes, which isn't bad considering how busy it was on a Saturday evening. We were just extra glad that (1) we had a reservation and (2) we made it for early. Our server was very efficient and took good care of us, although not especially friendly or fun. It's OK, since we make our own fun, and there are times when I at least prefer less interaction. I don't know that any of my family members were bothered by it. The food was excellent and it's always fun to cook your own. One other thing we were very glad of and that is we were finishing up when they cranked up the KPop music to ear-splitting volume. I guess on a weekend night at 7 pm you should be prepared to skip the conversation!

Every single space was taken even though there were barely any customers inside. Dunno what was up with that! Street pay parking was available, though. We chose our own table to sit at and the server came with the menus. After a short while, the server came with hot water. Looked over the menu and decided on what we wanted.... Placed an order of the regular Bibimbap with Beef, a Chicken Fried Rice and an order of the Pig's Feet. We also asked for iced water. The server brought out some side dishes and along with the plates and silverware. Then our dinner entrees came out one by one. Tasted the side dishes which seemed a bit old and not that fresh. The Bibimbap and Miso soup were tasty. There wasn't too much beef, but a lot of veggies. Our Chicken Fried Rice was good, but a little bland. Needed more seasoning. My wife said the Pig's Feet was good, so she liked that one. Our table service was fine.

We came back for an early lunch and were seated on the other side of the restaurant, which was empty at the time. The service wasn't great until that section began to fill up. Even though they make their noodles fresh, the jjajangmyeon wasn't great. The noodles were on the softer side, and the sauce had very little flavor. The tangsuyuk, however, was a nice portion--we opted for the larger order for just $5 more. We would return to try their jjamppong, which many people were ordering.

The bibimbap itself is delicious, clean - you put your own sauce on. Our waitress generously brought us one of each sauce so we could experiment.

Andrew is genuinely one of the best servers I've had anywhere. Super professional without feeling stiff, really easy to talk to, and just completely on top of everything. He managed the grill perfectly the whole time, paced the meat so nothing felt rushed or slow, and kept the heat just right without us ever having to ask. Our table never sat empty either. Banchan refills came out fast, drinks stayed full, and everything just flowed. What stood out the most was how seamless the entire experience felt. You don't realize how much that matters until you have someone who does it this well. It made the whole meal way more enjoyable. On top of that, the food here is already great and for $45 AYCE it's honestly a steal. But having Andrew take care of us twice now is what really made me want to leave this review. If you come here, definitely ask for Andrew if you can. He elevates the whole experience.

I had the tofu bowl with rice, lettuce, onions, eggs, cheese and broccoli with black beans. YUMMY!!! So here's some background information because I have never heard of this place before: Bibibop has been described as "an Asian take on Chipotle." It was founded in 2013 in Columbus, Ohio by Korean American entrepreneur Charley Shin, the founder of Charleys Cheesesteaks. Casual eatery providing customized bowls, rice and salads along with a selection of Asian-inspired toppings. mixed rice Bibimbap meana (mixed rice), sometimes romanised as bi bim bap or bi bim bop, is a Korean rice dish... In my opinion I would say bibimbap is generally considered a very healthy and nutritious dish. It provides a balanced mix of carbohydrates, protein, and fiber. Typically featuring steamed rice, various vegetables, protein (egg or beef), and sesame oil, it is low in fat, high in vitamins, and supports healthy weight management.
