TLDR: Incredible food, amazing service, and a fantastic time…read more We had such an amazing experience at Gogi Korean BBQ! The food was outstanding from start to finish the Kalbi tender steak and the spicy pork belly were absolute top notch and the Banchan had excellent options. We also grabbed some lTerra beer, which was a great value and paired perfectly with the meal. What truly took our evening to the next level was our server, Andrew. Since we were KBBQ novices, Andrew was exceptionally polite, patient, and considerate in guiding us through everything. Beyond being super helpful, he just brought a fun, welcoming vibe to the table that made the night so enjoyable. If you're in Jacksonville and looking for top-notch Korean BBQ with top-tier service, definitely go to Gogi and ask for Andrew. We'll absolutely be coming back!

Both of us recently had a LONG day so we got a late (for us) dinner at Gogi Korean BBQ. They're…read morelocated at 416 Commerce Center Drive, in the Regency area. We've been here a few times before and always enjoyed it. This visit was no different and actually, we probably had the best server we've had so far. He was a super nice guy named Mas. We tried a lot of the menu, which is one of the great things about this style of restaurant. I included pics of their menu which has all the details about how their All You Can Eat pricing works. It was a very nice way to put a cap on our long day. I'm really glad we have this place within minutes of our home. This review originally appeared in the Jacksonville Fun, Eats & Events Facebook group.

Finally made it here. Service was fantastic. Was immediately brought to my somewhat private table…read more Given menus. Shown button on the wall to call for service. Looked over the menu and was in a pho mood. The special looked tasty with added variety-ramen, crispy chicken, chicken bao and unique lemonade made with sparkling water. Was served very quickly. I ate the egg first-- perfection. I tried all the condiments on their own with a spoon full of broth. I loved the Shichimi togarashi but the pepper sauerkraut was phenomenal. I ate both in bites of broth and on my bao. I've had a better bao but seriously nothing to complain about here. The chicken was well seasoned, not dry but not juicy. The broth was not as spicy as I would have liked. The ramen noodles were acceptable. I'm definitely headed back for the omurice! Can't wait! Not sure why all my menu photos didn't show up. Anyway, check it out!

So I finally found my way to Kyuramen. Upon being seated I discovered that they have a great lunch…read morespecial. It's any ramen off the menu, a pork bao or an order of gyoza and either a Thai iced tea or a lemonade, all for sixteen bucks. The ramen was quite decent (and spicy!) and the bao was tasty, too. The tea was well made and refreshing. I also noticed from looking at the regular menu that they serve omurice. Am definitely trying that next time! Service was very kind, friendly and efficient and the place was immaculately clean with a cool vibe and layout. If you're near there between the hours of 11:30 and 4:00, it's definitely worth stopping in to take advantage of this great lunch deal. And don't scoff at it being a chain - some chains (like this one) are good. Kyuramen 9846 Old Baymeadows Rd. Jacksonville, FL 32256 (904)647-5772

I'll say at the start I feel sad I missed not taking photos of my Ramen meals!! The reason is…read moresimple - we ordered takeout and hunger overtook me!! However, I'll make up for it in the near future because both bowls were outstanding and I'd certainly visit Bunsik Heaven again. This Korean street food shop is lined along the other Asian food outlets in the food court area of Latte Market. This area of Latte Market is really a must-see area to visit as it also offers a coffee shop, a dessert/danish shop, among a couple of other shops. But Bunsik Heaven was a good choice in that its prices on what they offer and the value in what they give you in return are really good overall. They have three large menu boards to choose meals and sides from. We went with the Ramen board. Don't know why but I've had a ramen craving lately, especially since my Hangar Bay experience! I chose the kalguksu noodles soup, which came with beef and vegetables. It was a large bowl with sliced tender beef, mild broth and a good mix of vegetables that happily made this a two-day meal! It's B5 on the menu board! I highly recommend it. My dearest chose the mandu ramen - or dumpling ramen. This one had a little spiciness to it - by no means overwhelming. Really, I liked this bowl better than the one I ordered. The dumplings were delicious, along with the broth and noodles were the perfect combo! It's B2 on the menu and I highly recommend this one as well - just a little above my meal! You can't go wrong with either. Our cashier really knew the menu impressively. She also could tell about what the other food outlets offered as well. She helped us with our order with concern that we make the best choice - and she did! I encourage people to visit this section of Latte Market! I look forward to eating in the food court area instead of at home next time I visit. However you choose to do it, if you have the inkling to try Bunsik Heaven or one of the other shops here, I do highly recommend Bunsik Heaven! Recommend: HIGH

We started with the steamed dumplings, which were delicious, and then ordered the Stone Steak Bibimbap for our main dish. They brought out banchan with our meal along with sauces for the bibimbap, and everything was so fresh and flavorful. But that bibimbap?! AMAZING. The egg had those perfect crispy edges while the yolk was still runny, the veggies were delicious, and the steak was super flavorful and tender. And then you get to the crispy rice at the bottom of the hot stone bowl... UGH. It made the whole thing even better! The service was great too! They came by and refilled our banchan a couple of times without us having to ask. The restaurant was very clean and pretty full when we were there. They did ask us to share a table since they were busy, which we weren't expecting, but honestly it wasn't bad at all and didn't take away from the experience. We really enjoyed our food and I would definitely recommend this place. Everything tasted homemade, comforting, and full of flavor. I'm 100% coming back because now I need to work my way through the rest of that menu!

Wonderful lunch with the team. I had the Chicken Shoyu Ramen and brought home 4 sushi rolls: Green…read moreDragon Roll, Hawaii Roll, Shrimp Tempura and Salmon Avocado Roll. The ramen was good, settled, good seasoning with the umami flavor with chicken, egg, seaweed, bamboo shoots and green onions. Green Dragon Roll had always been one of my favorite essentially shrimp tempura, cucumbers, avocados, green tobiko and eel sauce. Hawaii roll was semi-sweet with mango, salmon and cream cheese. And lastly, salmon and avocado. All sushi made fresh and delicious. I've visited this restaurant several times in the past, but just now writing about it. I love how they updated the decor since I last visited in 2023. The service and staff were wonderful and attentive. Looking forward for more visits and try out more menu items!

After two years of searching for a quality sushi location (I am from southern Georgia) I finally…read morecame across Kiko Sushi and Ramen (what a drive). If only I lived within or on the outskirts of Jacksonville would I visit this sushi spot more often. Walking into the restaurant transported me back to a fancier sushi restaurant I would visit growing up in California. There were so many fun colors, upbeat music, and traditional Japanese architecture. Another fancy thing that I appreciated as someone raised in California was the freshness and photogenic display of the variety of sushi I ordered. The milk tea also reminded me of the quality I used to enjoy back in California. I did not have to wait a long time for my drink and food to be served. Overall, I hope to visit again soon to enjoy fresh quality sushi and milk tea.

We had a great late lunch experience at this location today…read more We have gotten takeout from the location off Hodges multiple times (they have several locations in Jacksonville) but had not tried this spot that is actually very close to our house. The restaurant is casual but was clean and inviting. I called ahead about bringing my own wine which I take everywhere and their corkage fee was reasonable. We started with the veggie spring rolls which were very good. Hubby had the spicy tuna roll and really enjoyed it. We both ordered hibachi meals. I had the tofu and veggies minus the onions with white rice and a salad with ginger dressing. The hubby had the chicken and steak with the fried rice and salad with ginger dressing. Hubby thought the steak was tough but that was his only complaint. It was SO much food! We couldn't finish it but enjoyed it very much. Dominque gave us great service! We will add this to our dine out schedule. Ample parking and again very good.

Every roll we've tried has been beautifully presented and packed with flavor. This visit, the specialty rolls were excellent, and the yellowtail appetizer was incredibly fresh. We also ordered the salmon hibachi (not pictured), and it came with a generous portion that was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The spicy edamame is also a must-order! If you're looking for fresh sushi, consistently great service, and generous portions, Volcano never disappoints. We'll definitely keep coming back!

We had a gang meet up that included Goldie, Jimmy, Lea, Loan and myself. We get together each month to try a new restaurant, and of course, to enjoy each other's company. It's been a while since I had a Vietnamese meal and when I go, I'm always stuck on ordering something of the Vermicelli variety. Yep! That's what I did on this day. First off, I have to say that quality of the fresh veggies - lettuce, carrots, cucumber, etc., along with peanuts, were the best in freshness status I've ever seen in just about any restaurant. Between the appearance and the taste, they stand alone in this category. I wasn't worried about having the rolls with this meal, so I chose the B1a - grilled shrimp and pork. As a full bowl, the appearance and quality of the toppings over the noodles was stellar. The pork was chewy, but not in the range of the impossible to deal with. Just something that people who have difficulty chewing might wish to be aware of. There were three large pieces of shrimp that were tasty but a tad overcooked - not enough in any way to drop my score. With the fish sauce mixed, along with the bowl, it turned out to be a fantastic meal! Loan recommended we visit Q-Cup Boba Tea and it was totally worth visit! I will say that Loan's, Goldie's, jimmy's and Lea's offerings looked pretty amazing as well. The sub sandwich and beef cuts on Jimmy's meal looked superb! May have to try that one someday. I'll let them tell you about their meal in their reviews. This is a fantastic ma and pa shop. It's basic in appearance, not the most highly rated in decor. But I'm sure anyone who visits will be happy when they leave. Our server was great - took awesome care of us. I encourage readers to put this restaurant on their bookmarks list! Recommend: HIGH
