Great new place for Korean food. The best part is definitely the delivery of the food. It is brought to the table by a robot. The food is good and the staff are very friendly. The dumplings are delicious. My daughter enjoyed the ramen and I enjoyed the pork cup bap. read more

1.28.23 I love Korean food and was excited when I discovered this fast casual restaurant on yelp. I was surprised to see how much foot traffic it has. I guess it's been open awhile longer than I thought as many people are aware of this restaurant. Orders are placed at the counter and they call the order when it's ready. Orders can also be placed online and they also do Doordash. The menu is limited. They offer bulgogi boxes, bibimbap, cup bap, soups, and sides. One minor irritation and inaccuracy on the menu is that it says vegetable tempura when it's not tempura. They should definitely update the printed menu as it's misleading and could be disappointing for patrons like me who are excited to see it on the menu. I ordered the galbee bulgogi box and a bottled Mountain Dew. It took longer to prepare than I thought it would, about 10 minutes. The galbee was perfectly marinated although slightly chewy. It would have been nice if they provided a knife and fork. They provided a metal spoon and disposable wooden chopsticks. The rice was cooked just right in terms of chewiness and moistness. I am a harsh critic when it comes to rice so if I say it was perfect then trust me. I thought the veggies were going to be dry, raw, and flavorless, but it was sautéed and seasoned. I got my veggies in today AND actually enjoyed them, which is rare. On my way out, the gentleman who took my order asked how my experience was, which was nice. Good food and friendly service. I am definitely a fan and will be back to try something else next time, perhaps the beef bulgogi. Until next time... read more

I ordered lunch pickup. The place is located in small strip mall right off of Snowden River Parkway. I walked right in and picked up my order at the DoorDash pickup area without having to talk to anyone. I ordered Pork cupbap, fried dumplings and cheese ddukboki/rice cakes. Honestly the taste was just ok and had better at other places. I felt all of the food items were lacking in flavor but it's not terrible. I will have to try their other menu items and also try sit down option. read more

New spot that opened up that's part of a small "chain" in the local area. They started up in 1999 in the Lotte food court over by Route 40 and have since "rebranded" I think for better appeal to other demographics. Their menu consists of a mix of traditional korean dishes and tweaks on Korean dishes that make it feel similar to street food. There are entrees that range from bibimbaps to soups and other goodies. Flavor is good and the staff is friendly. If you decide to dine in, they even have a little segway robot that delivers your food to your table (excessive? probably. but is it fun? definitely) Great experience overall and I'm always glad to see more options like this pop up in the local area. read more

K - Manna - spicy pork bibimbap - Korean Near Me - Columbia, Maryland

Food is very good. Gotta try everything in the menu. If you ever need a quick lunch, this is the place to go. Service is fast and you even get to enjoy a robot serving you your meal. Their banchan is really delicious. Especially the cucumber kimchi. You can buy their banchan in small batches to take home. This is really a delightful place to have a meal! read more

I first went here in February with a friend, and today I did an online delivery order for lunch. It's located in the same plaza as Papa John's on Snowden river pkwy, so there are some parking spots but it can get crowded in that center. When I first heard about this place, I wondered if it was somehow tied to "Manna", one of my favorite food spots inside Lotte in Ellicott City. After seeing several photos on the wall inside K-Manna of the Manna I just mentioned, I'm assuming they may have the same owners (but not confirmed). My go-to entree is the Galbi short ribs box. Nicely marinated and you do get several pieces, along with cucumber kimchi, veggies, egg, and rice. I also love their version of the yum-yum sauce that they serve with it. My husband likes the spicy pork bulgogi. I've also had the chicken karaage and fried dumplings, and both were tasty and fairly crispy. It seems like their main specialities here are the combo boxes and the cup baps (basically bibimbap in a large cup), and keep in mind it is more like a fushion style restaurant. Menu isn't too extensive, but they do also offer a variety of classic soups and stews like kimchi jigae, budae jigae, soondobu, yukgaejang, etc.) Yummy food, and I'm glad there's a Manna in Columbia now! The one in EC definitely serves the more authentic Korean food (since it's not fusion) that I love so much & offer more options as well, so I still prefer that one even if it's a slightly longer drive. But again, I'm still happy to have one that's closer especially for when I want a quick lunch delivery. read more

This was such a pleasant surprise! It's one those when you're not sure what expect when you order for the first time (from a delivery app), and it exceeds your expectations! Authentically Korean and a little bit of everything lunchbox. Got the spicy pork box which comes with the pork, rice, rolled omelette (gyeran-mari) with some side dishes (banchan). Also got their fried mandu (dumplings). Everything was delicious and great portion sizes. Definitely a great spot for those who want to try Korean bbq meat without doing the the AYCE bbqs. I definitely want to visit in person and bring my husband. So glad I've discovered K-Manna and will be back soon! read more

So it's an extension of the Manna restaurant in Lotte food court. Ordering is easy and a robot brings you the food. My mom and I tried their bibimbop. It did not have the traditional go-sa-ri which I was fine with, but it is a stable in bibimbop. Flavor was fine, with fresh ingredients. It was in a container that shaped liked the clay pot but not actually. It's a quick stop by or pick up place for standard Korean cuisines read more

Business changed. It is no more Korean food restaurant. It is now Korean style pub and under construction.

This is a fun place for good food. They have a little robot cart that brings the food to you. Service is fast and the food portions good size, we had lots to take home. They have a good variety of Korean style soups and bibimbap. This is definitely a stop to add to your list. read more

I'm a huge fan of their Odenton location. I always mention K Manna if anyone I know is working in that area. So glad they've expanded and this location is the same in quality. Stopped by recently and ordered their kalbi and beef cup bap. The kalbi and ban chan were perfect. The beef in the bap was so tender and seasoned well with their house soy garlic seasoning. My friends got our food fairly quickly. Prices are reasonable and if you're looking for a fast casual Korean restaurant this is the spot. read more

K - Manna - a bento box with a variety of food items - Korean Near Me - Columbia, Maryland

I'm happy this place dropped into this area, makes it super convenient for the commute and for south Columbia in general. You may remember this place from the Lotte or Hmart food courts like in Ellicott City. Great authentic Korean food (traditional and fusion). So like if you dine in and order Bibimbap you'll get it in a sizzzling hot bowl of goodness just like anywhere up north. Staff is friendly and you can order in Korean if you're more comfortable with that. Vegetarian options as well. I think the gochujang and kimchi could be a little spicier but they may already be too much/just right for some people. Overall flavor profile is 8.5/10 for a good bowl of Bibimbap. Will definitely be coming back. read more

Was looking for something light to eat for lunch so searched Yelp for a place that served dumplings. This place seems high tech as they have a robot as a waiter. Didn't get to try it thought since I ordered take out. Got some beef dumplings.. although couldn't taste the beef so maybe they accidentally gave me the plain? Either way, nice spot.. will be back to try other things on the menu. read more

Shoutout to our local community heroes! I was excited about this venue opening up. I have several appointments around this venue and today was the day that I was able to come by to sample some of favorites. It is a nice venue. Order at the counter and wait until you get called up. There was a fairly large group before me and all I saw was a bunch of happy patrons! I looked at the menu prior to arriving, so that I could be considerate and keep the line moving. The atmosphere is professional and energetic. Kpop music plays overhead, but not too loud. Coolers of cold drinks. The dishes are a good variety. Meal bowls, boxes, etc... and soups!! On this chilly winter day and doctors appointments, the hot hearty soups and well balanced spices on the proteins were like having a warm hug from the inside out! I had some leftovers and I packed them with care. It will be like a treasure box for dinner later. A good time was had by all my taste buds! I can't wait to see how well this venue does in this area of town! I'm sure hoping that everyone will be able to go buy and try out some good eats! Happy New Year Columbia area! It is a blessing to have this wonderful spot to visit when I have my appointments in this area :) read more

K-manna is A-O-K. The food was tasty and authentic; the price was right. We had the pork bibimbap, fried dumplings, the mondookuk, and cheese rice cake and enjoyed every bite. The robot delivery was cute touch and the kids loved it. Parking is limited so you might want to get there early. Enjoy read more

I enjoy the Beef bulgogi with brown rice. Tofu stew was pretty good too. Order online and food would be ready when you arrive to pick up.

My friend found about this place when he was driving Snowden and I wasn't truly convinced about the hype, but man I enjoyed this meal so much. I got the pork cup bap and it was so worth it. When I ordered the lady at the register was very kind and friendly. Not only was it at a good price but it was very filling. It comes In a big cup with marinated pork, egg, kimchi, and lettuce with a savory sauce. The pork was tender and the sauce gave a savory punch. The noodles were cooked perfectly. I'm usually not a big kimchi guy but I loved it. Not only was the food good but the chef came in and asked us if we liked it and we said we loved it. He gave us tips on how to eat it correctly with the different sauces and overall the cook was very kind and funny. The restaurant gave a very cozy vibe and I'd totally recommend it to my friends and family. 5 stars. read more

Horrible quality of foods especially the so called rice and veggies that came with combo meal. Meat was seasoned well but thin. Total waste of time and money , forget that stupid robot , spend that money on quality veggies and rice read more

Absolutely delicious and well-seasoned bulgogi beef stew. I also appreciate that the portion was large and my meal was nicely packaged for carry out--no spills and the food was still hot by the time I arrived home. I plan to return soon. read more

Pretty good casual Korean food. They use robots to serve you which is cute. The stone pot bibimbap was good and the portion was pretty big

A hidden gem in Columbia. Customer service is incredible. All staff were patient and very friendly; answered the questions I had about the menu items. The food was incredible too! I ordered the short rib cup bap. Authentic and delicious. The kitchen is visibly clean and well taken care of. It's clear that the staff here put a lot of effort and care into their food. Highly recommend! read more

Five stars for the food, one star for their integrity. Multiple times now I order extra meet for my bowl, while my wife gets the regular order, and its the same amount. Even "extra egg", they give me a single egg. Don't pay for extra portions and you will be alright. read more

Really tasty, very friendly, and overall a wonderful experience. Our entire family enjoyed the food, which is a feat in itself, and the person working went out of their way to interact with our boys and make them smile. Can't wait to go back! read more

We're glad to finally have a Korean place in Columbia proper, and the location of this one is really convenient for a stop while out doing errands, etc. K Manna is a pretty casual place, located in a former deli in a strip mall. We brought our kid and ordered a short rib bibimbap and stir fried spicy pork box, and some dumplings. To our delight it was all brought to the table by a robot, which fascinated my kid! The food was reasonably priced, good portions and really tasty. I would definitely make this a regular stop for our family. read more

Did not care for anything about K-Manna, server, ambiance and definitely not the bulgogi beef box. Will not be going back.

Have to give 5 stars for the robot. bibimbap is really good, reasonably priced. would go back read more

Very filthy everywhere inside restaurant. I wish the kitchen might not be as dirty as dining area. I saw filthy floor and checked the restroom (men / women shared) and found uncleaned. Looks like they only want to take care take out customers. Be alert when you like to dine in. They hired robot to serve not to clean. I had bibimbap and found very small amount of veggies and meat inside oversized bowl. Not recommendable for dining in. read more

Stopped in for dinner tonight. Ordered the beef bulgogi bimimbap, which was delivered by a robot! So fun. I thought it was very authentic but wished it came with more kimchi and a spicier sauce. Also, I grabbed some kimchi to go from the refrigerated display. Will definitely come back! read more

I ordered for pickup, so I cant speak to the service when you eat-in, but pickup was easy and the workers were nice and efficient. My order was delicious. I got a pork cup bap and my friend got the short ribs cup bap. I also got the dumplings. Everything was fantastic. The food was presented beautifully and tasted like heaven. Seriously, I was very impressed by flavor and by quality. I would absolutely recommend to anyone! read more

Great Korean food. Tasty. Large portions. Ready quickly. We ordered take it but the done in atmosphere looked fun.

I saw this place while driving on Snowden and thought I would check it out. I went in and the staff was very friendly. While I was paying for my food with cash I was a cent short or whatever when trying to pay with some coins and they didn't really care. I got the pork bulgogi box with no egg and it was incredible. The food came out very fast but I could tell it was all fresh. The pork had a really good texture and flavor. All the veggies that came with it was also delicious. The food isn't really pricey at all for how much you get. If your thinking about going to this place do it you will not be disappointed. read more

The owner of business called a customer motherfucker! This is not acceptable. I ordered food many times from this location. Previously, I did not have any complaint. The food was good and service was acceptable. Today, I found that the quality and ingredient was bad while missing something and side dish change and not consistent. I called the business to provide feedback as a customer as I wanted to provide genuine feedback so that they can keep the quality. The owner of business said that he won't give a damn shit about the quality and it is dependent on what the chef of his restaurant feels like on that day. What a joke? And the owner of business was yelling at me on the phone saying "Motherfucker and motherfucking I will give you a credit on the order." I told him that i just wanted to provide my genuine feedback so that it can keep good quality and don't need credit. The owner was saying that he won't give a shit while keep saying motherfucking and motherfucker to me... This is a terrible mindset of an ethnic small business owner. I can't still believe what came out of the mouth of the business owner read more
