    And I've got no case To take my place with the human race  KBOP Bulgogi & Spicy Pork Bowl from #KBOPKoreanKitchen
    Mojo S.

    Sometimes I spend a lot of time looking up new restaurants to try. I'll waste hours trying to focus down what's a good food joint I haven't tried yet. And other times they open a new Korean kitchen next to where you get your haircut. And by a happy accident they do a decent Korean bulgogi and spicy pork bowl. It may not quite be to the level of an ANB, but it's more than delicious enough to pick up after an appointment with one's barber. The service was great. Other than telling me it was $1.50 to add green onions when it's actually free and included with the bowls, there were no problems. They got my bowl to me quickly and the ordering was actually pretty speedy. The ambience was nice. Everything was vibrant and upbeat. They have enough tables for the amount of customers coming in. Plus, the music was kind of lively compared to what you usually get in a bowl food joint. I didn't have my book with me but I bet it's very friendly to killing off a chapter or two after you eat here. All in all, it's a good find and one I suspect I'll be coming to every now and then just because it's so convenient and tasty.

    Food: KBOP Bowl - choice of base (White Rice, Multi-Grain Rice [+$1.50], Salad) + 2 proteins (Beef Bulgogi, Chicken, Spicy Pork, Spam, Fried Tofu, Mushrooms), served with salad & dressing; Kimchi Fried Rice Bowl - choice of protein, stir fried white rice, kimchi, onions, roasted seaweed & fried egg (optional); Korean Fried Chicken - Boneless or Wings - (Flavors: Original, Soy Garlic, Sweet Chili) served with small white radish & one dipping sauce (BBQ Honey, Insane Spicy, Spicy Mayo, Sweet Chili, Ranch) All were very tasty, but the Kimchi Fried Rice Bowl used sour/older kimchi. The KFC Soy Garlic goes perfect with the Ranch. Service: friendly service and everything is made-to-order Design: interiors is contemporary with concrete floors, white walls, tables, brown chairs, nice graphics & posters Overall: if you want really good Korean fast food, then I would highly recommend this place

    Such a good grab-and-go spot! I was hungry and wanted a quick fix so I went with the Kbop bowl - beef bulgogi and spicy pork. Both meats were surprisingly tender and there were more meaty than fatty pieces, which I appreciated. The base comes with half white rice half salad but you can change it to your preferences. It was the right amount for me to feel satiated and not overly stuffed. The process of ordering and receiving the bowl took less than 5 minutes. I went at night so parking was super easy but it is fairly small. There was no one dining in when I visited but the interior is bright, spacious, and modern with its own ramen station.

    I drive by this place everyday on my way home from work and had no idea that it was here. I think it used to be a sushi place and I just never paid attention. I came here today for lunch and I got a Kbop bowl with beef bulgogi and chicken and a large Korean glass noodle. Total was around $22 so it is a little expensive, but the portion size is pretty decent. I wish there was a bit more protein and maybe less salad, but they give you a lot of rice and the bowl filled me up. The glass noodles also tasted really good and it was a pretty big portion for only $6.00. Place was clean and the worker was friendly. I ordered online and the food was ready when they said it would be. Parking lot is tiny, so it might be hard to get a space if it's really busy. Overall, the food was pretty tasty and the menu is pretty big. I will definitely be back to try some other things on the menu.

    Came here for lunch since I wanted to try something new Got the mixed bowl with beef bulgogi and chicken. It comes with rice and salad. The beef bulgogi was a bit tough and hard to chew. The marinade was ok. The chicken had no taste, really bland! The salad dressing tasted too sour like vinegar and did not compliment the salad or bowl since it got mixed in with the meat and rice. The ribs were pretty good, cooked well and had some nice fat/meat pieces. Chapjae was not the best. It had a nice soft chewy texture, but the flavor tasted like there was too much sesame oil where it felt greasy and it was really peppery. The flavors were too Americanized for me. I prefer a more authentic Korean place.

    I am so excited that KBOP finally opened today! Every day I drive by, I look to see if it's open yet and finally the day has come. I've driven by a KBOP on Huntington in Monrovia and they confirmed it was the same restaurant. KBOP took over the former Domo Sushi & Roll location across Mt. SAC. They've completely renovated the interior and it's beautiful. It's very bright and welcoming and enough seating for about 25 guests. The staff was very welcoming and happy to explain the menu and give recommendations. I ended up ordering: KBOP Bowl w/ spicy pork and beef bulgogi KBOP Bowl w/ chicken only Boneless Fried chicken (6 pieces) in soy garlic flavor w/ Spicy Mayo sauce Side of Korean Glass noodles (aka japchae) They also have KBOP fries, but I'll have to try that next time when I have the whole family in tow to share with me. The food was great! Bowls come with a base of half white rice and half salad. I enjoyed the chicken bowl, the chicken was tender and well seasoned. Salad was refreshing and helped to balance the palate while eating the savory food. The fried chicken was yummy! I really liked the flavor and sauces I got (which the staff recommended to me). The glass noodles were good but a bit saltier than I'm used to. There's also a ramen station on the side of the restaurant. It's not ready to use yet, but they said you can order a bag of ramen from the ramen wall, they'll put it in a bowl and then go to the station to fill it with hot water. Makes me think of a convenience store.... The food was ready quick! I love that they stick a label on each container so you know what's what. I don't know why more places don't do that and you have to guess what everything is. Only downside is that parking can be really challenging as it's a small lot and there aren't a lot of spaces available, especially if you have a lot of customers visiting the other shops in the plaza. Overall, KBOP is a great addition to Walnut, and I can't wait to come back!

    Kbop bowl
    Shirley C.

    I've been here when it was a Japanese sushi place. I think this place as a Kbop modern eatery is better fitting next to Mt. SAC. Pricing and the food selection were great and reasonable. Everything is bright, white, clean and updated. Service was good. I supposed they cook the food to order so everything is really hot and fresh. I assumed if you're in a rush you might want to give yourself enough time to get the food. I have the KBOP bowl ($14), adding glass noodle side dish ($3). I think it's delicious but a bit dry. My daughter ordered the beef potstickers and boneless chicken. Also very delicious. I'll want to try the instant bowl of noodle option in the future. Sounds interesting.

    Korean Fried chicken

    My kiddos think they are Asian, so any new Asian place they want to try. Yes!!! This is a must lunch or quick dinner place. It is delicious and very filling. We got 4 bowls and fried chicken. Very good! And super clean! A must try and college student discounts.

    Korean fried chicken bowl
    Cindy M.

    First time here. Ordered a Korean fried chicken bowl and regular fries (not pictured). Very flavorful. The guy who took our order was nice, helpful and open to questions if we had any. The place is small, but there's seating. It's bright and clean. There's two water stations to make your ramen if you choose that for yourself. It's across the street from Mt. Sac so I predict this place is busy during lunch time some days. The fries were perfectly seasoned. If you want ranch for your fries it's an extra 55 cents (not a dealbreaker). It's a cool place. I'd happily come back.

    Clean and inviting
    Paolo T.

    Finally open! Right across from Mt. SAC. Place is clean and inviting. Cashiers are welcoming and helpful if you have any questions. Menu prices looks reasonable. We ordered a Mixed Rice Bowl w/ Chicken and a fried egg (optional no extra charge) and a order of 6 Piece Boneless Fried Chicken Soy Garlic flavor. Food was very good and the boneless chicken was also very good! They have a Ramen Station if you're craving ramen or Jjajamyeon. They have extra toppings for the ramen too! Maybe we'll try the ramen next time. Over all this is a place I would definitely come back too. Parking lot is kinda small but we had no trouble finding a spot right in front.

    Mixed rice bowl
    Katie Y.

    Ordered the mixed rice bowl, almost $16 and the protein portion is so small. There were only a few pieces of chicken. The bowl was pretty good with the base having half rice salad but just wasn't filling enough for the price :/ There's an online ordering system, was able to pick up the food quickly.

That said I was pleasantly surprised with how balanced the meal was. I ordered three pockets: spicy tuna, grilled pepper salmon, and takowasa (octopus and wasabi). I will say the spicy tuna has got a kick to it! While the yubu is sweet, it's a very nice balance with the flavors from the toppings. Portion sizes are generous too, although there was more rice than toppings. Parking is plenty in this plaza. I came here on a Monday afternoon and there was no wait.

After a while the smell also started to get to me mentally as well, which kind of hurt the overall dining experience. So I'd probably go to a different location from now on. Maybe the staff have gone nose blind to the smell... Aside from that, great banchan selection for the bossam but they could have been more proactive about refilling the banchan dishes that got emptied or just checked on the table a bit more.

There's a good amount of space and the separate rooms make it feel a lot more private. Overall, good food and really great service.

It's simple and quiet in there, with minimal decor but enough tables and chairs to fit a few different sized groups. Service was average to me, if not a little below that; they serve your food and leave you alone. I don't think the older gentleman came over at all due in our meal except to drop off food, and I had to go up to ask for additional utensils and later, pay for the food. Food (4/5): Honestly, the food was pretty on point. The jook (porridge) came out piping hot and much larger in size than expected, but that explains the higher price point, although not everyone may feel it's justified. I'm used to getting jook from their other Buena Park location to go for sick days, but eating it fresh was so much better. Kids loved it and got several servings. We also got the yukgaejang, which was the perfect amount of spice and a good amount to share if you're not particularly hungry. It had chewy, medium thick vermicelli noodles, came with a bowl of rice and the usual helpings of greens and meat. Restroom was clean, although the soap was strangely watery/watered down. Would we come again? This makes for a tasty and quick meal in the area, so it'd be a decent place to meet up to eat or eat with the fam if you're looking for good Korean comfort food. They also serve a variety of other things like ginseng chicken soup and bibimbap varieties.
