3. Spicy Tuna Kimbap / 매운 참치 김밥
Julie H.

Annnd I'm back again. $30 for 2 orders of spicy tuna Kimbap. Can't beat the quality and price!

Jimmy C.

Great tasting kimbap which is made to order with fresh ingredients. I ordered the beef kimbap, my go-to kimbap, and it did not disappoint. My only gripe is the price. $15 for kimbap is kinda wild. Historically, at least in Korea, kimbap has always been known to be cheap and reserved for the broke person who is looking for a quick meal on a tight budget. This price doesn't fit that description at all. With that being said, I would come back here to satisfy my kimbap craving with no hesi.

I picked up a box of beef Kimbap as a snack today. It was freshly made. $14 They do offer inside seatings with a few tables and chairs. Friendly service. Plenty of parking in the lot.

13. Shrimp Tempura Kimbap/새우튀김 김밥
Yena W.

This is where i go when i want kimbap made by aunties and ummas because i cannot for the life of me roll a nice kimbap and i am okay with this personal cooking flaw, this inability of mine to prepare a deceptively simple korean staple food as a korean person, because i can just go to kimbap paradise and order 10 slices for myself for a quick meal, or order their kimbap party tray that i would never lie about by telling my crowd of course i made these for them, no, it was made by the loving hands of the nice agassis at kimbap paradise. There are only a couple tables inside and none outside so definitely order ahead for takeout. Tell the kind ladies hello and thank you, bless their hard working hands that rolled your beautiful kimbap for you.

Party Tray (6 orders): 8. Vegetable Kimbap / 2. Tuna Kimbap / 1. Beef Kimbap /
Corona S.

It was my first time here, and after hearing great things, I decided to order a party tray of kimbap for a work function and it was a hit! My Korean colleague even said it was one of the best she's had, and I completely agree. I called ahead to place the order and got three flavors (vegetable, beef, and tuna), two of each, for a total of six rolls. All were delicious, but the tuna was my personal favorite. The lady who took my order was so friendly and patient, and when I came to pick it up, she was just as warm and welcoming in person. The shop itself is small with just a couple of tables, so you can also sit down and enjoy your kimbap right away if you'd like. I'll definitely be coming back!

Spicy pork kimbap
Vivian T.

Ordered the spicy pork kimbap and it was great! Very flavorful meat and the rest of the vegetables were fresh. The bulgogi kimbap here also tastes amazing. They filled the kimbap very full as well and did not skimp on the ingredients. I ordered my order for takeout as the seating is a bit limited, however parking is ample in the large lot. Would come back!

11. Bulgogi Kimbap / 불고기 김밥  2. Tuna Kimbap / 참치 김밥
Sahar A.

I've been on the hunt for a kimbap restaurant that tastes like the kimbap I had when I visited Korea, and this place is definitely it. The flavors taste authentic and really reminded me of what I had there. The vegetables are all seasoned perfectly. This is easily my favorite kimbap spot right now, and I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm craving kimbap.

Tulisa T.

kimbap is good but i don't think it's worth of the price around $16. service was quick. it's a small place with lots of parking. overall, not bad but not sure if i would get it again.

Virginia J.

This small shop is located in what seemed to me to be a plaza full of other Korean shops. I was very surprised. The store sign says 'KBOP TOP 10'. I happened to be in the area and heard a lot of good things about this place so I thought I'd stop by. The staff were very nice and they had a family kind of dynamic. Kimbap is made fresh. I got the bulgogi kimbap. There are 18 pieces in one order. The shop is small with only a few tables. I'm on the fence about this place. The kimbap was okay. I wasn't blown away by it. I don't know if it usually comes with any sauces or not but I felt like it was missing something. For ppl who like kimbap, my all time favorite is still Chan Chan. I don't think I will be coming back here as it is quite a drive from where I am.

Shannon Z.

Kimbap here is really delicious and hits the spot! They have a variety of flavors. We ordered the beef, tuna, and shrimp. The sauce it comes with is super delicious (tastes sort of like wasabi flavored). They also offer party trays for bigger events!

18. Fire Fishcake Kimbap / 불오뎅김밥
Catherine T.

no other place specializes in kimbap like they do! the flavor and quality are consistently good across many menu items, but this time i wanted to get one of my go-tos: the fire fishcake! (the spice was spicing...) it's rolled right then and there, so it will take some time for them to make it (a full bts music video, which they'll play on a small tv screen for you, or around 4 minutes). with that in mind, you can rest assured the ingredients used are fresh since they package it after you order and pay. you get around 3 rolls of your chosen kimbap. i paid $12.95 for the fire fishcake, so it's a bit on the pricier side even though it's one of the cheaper rolls offered. it's a cute shop that's a little cramped, so it's definitely just a spot to stay for a short time if you plan to eat there.

Doreen B.

4 only because of the confusing signage. It looks like KBOP Top 10, but it's actually K Bop Top 10 Kimbap Paradise. If you ever wondered what authentic kimbap tastes like. This is the place. So good, fresh, and a ton of selection. Not in the mood? They have ramen, tteoboki and lots of other sides like cheesy fried rice. You'll also find some unique beverages to go with your

17. Spicy Pork Bugogi Kimbap /
Natalie N.

My favorite Kimbap place! It's always made fresh to go and the ladies are so sweet here! The spicy pork and spicy tuna mayo are def spicy but also my two faves here. I love how there's soo many options and combos to choose from and it's worth the price for the amt of rolls you get. I always cater this for my parties and it's a big hit. Not much sitting area but it's more of a grab and go place.

Kind of reminded me of Baekjeong. Got the combo A that came with either a choice of pork belly or pork collar + beef brisket + choice of stew + cheese. Opted for the pork belly and soybean paste stew with seafood. I usually don't like pork belly, but the pork belly here was exceptional. The fat and juiciness was not like any other kbbq spot where you get tired of eating the meat. It was a plus that they had instructions of how to pair the meat with salt, cheese, or their other sides that they provided. The salt really enhanced the pork belly flavor and the cheese paired perfectly with the meat too. The soybean paste stew didn't really have much seafood in it that I noticed. Overall, plenty of seating and great customer service. I also like the set up of their grills here. Would definitely come back when in the area!

Wow what a great experience! The staff starts to set your table as you're walking up to the door!…read moreTalk about efficient use of time. Sunday early dinner around 430pm. Ordered Combo C- with pork & Kim chee stew as our stew choice. Banchan of: Kimchee (very good, not too spicey, garlicky full of umami), bread & butter type pickle slices, cabbage & red pickled beet combo, mustard green(?), and pickled white radish/daikon. Interesting unexpected banchan. Staff sets up and cooks/cuts the meat for you. Much like Mo Rak Do up the street does. Combo C has a variety of pork pieces. Excited to try pork jowl for the first time. Ample portions. All fresh with the added bonus of aging sticker info for the pork belly. All the meats were VERY good. The belly had a nice distribution of fat to meat ratio. The jowl had high fat content with a slightly firmer bite to it. Great choice. We selected the pork & kimchee stew. Also very good. A side thinly sliced green onion salad also served. The dipping ingredients: course sea salt, wasabi, sweetened shoyu with garlic/green onion bits, & a samjang mixture. All very tasty. Course salt is a nice upgrade. Beautifully presented. Plenty of staff to attend to your table. Menu also has add'l meats to add for a larger group (table of 6 to our right). Honestly I was glad it was my female cousin & I. Too much competition to grab our meat portions if the 2 piglets had to share. A definite return in the near future. Yes, these aren't all you can eat prices. Because it's above AYCE quality meats. This place is a winner all around for service, food quality, adequate venting, parking isn't bad (strip mall). One thing noticed. I never did get my one bowl of rice. Gotta have meat & rice right? Well...miss piggy didn't miss it.

Love soup! If you do too, this is the place for you!…read more Friend and I came Sunday night. It was busy. Busier than I expected and service was still great. It's quite lively. The ladies working here are kind and on top of things. My friend and I got the army stew to split. It was a TON of food. It was quite deceptive when it came out. When your order is brought out, they place a table top burner in your table first. Then the banchans come out. Banchans: - cucumbers: crisp and refreshing, mild spice - radish: very crunchy - kimchi: very tasty here - fish cakes: my fav, they are a bit sweeter here Then the main cauldron of soup is brought out. What's in it: - hot dogs/sausage: cut up and I think it's kielbasa - spam - meat chunks - oval rice cakes - tofu - a square of dried ramen noodles with American cheese - some veg like onion, green onion - tasty broth!! - bowl of rice too Let this cauldron boil up over the table top burner then dig in! This hit all the right spots, especially as the temperature is starting to cool down. There was so much food. My friend and I ate to our fill and had enough to each bring home leftovers.

The servers are aunties that won't check on you after every bite but will come over the second you raise your hand. I took my mom for lunch and we dug in a little too quick - photos were snapped after we've made a small dent on the food. We got the Seolleongtang and soondae platter which was plenty to share between two people. We ended up taking half of the soondae platter home and enjoying it for breakfast the day after. For those not familiar with Seolleongtang, the soup comes out very basic. You're given a bucket of scallions, a little pot of salt, and shaker of ground pepper to season the broth as you please. I recommend adding a few spoonfuls of the radish kimchi sauce. Speaking of the banchan, Jong Ro prepares some of the freshest and most flavorful banchans on the street. I wish they offered a menu option that was just a bowl of rice and bottomless banchan. The soondae was perfectly springy, paired with a salted shrimp sauce and flavored salt dip. The platter also came with boiled (or steamed?) pork belly, pig ear, and other pork innards that were nicely cooked. I love restaurants like this because they are simply good at what they do. Nothing is over-the-top. There is always a constant stream of customers. The times I've gone have been during your typical slow hours and the place was always 60% full. I imagine the house is full during dinner time or on weekends and rightfully so. Definitely stop by if you're looking for a heartwarming and belly filling comfort meal.

More people need to get on this spot, it's sooo good!!…read more Located inside the HMart food court, tucked into the back corner, a sweet little auntie mans the counter. You order with her, get a buzzer, then collect your food when you're called. Obviously, you're going to get an order of the rice cakes. Now which kind, that's up to you, but you'd be remiss not to opt for the large tteokbokki. The texture of the cake is soft and chewy all the way through. I thought either the outside would be too mushy or the inside undercooked, but I was pleasantly surprised that the texture was consistent all the way through. We got the rose tteokbokki and the sauce had a good cream ratio. The spice is solid, a good kick at the medium level. I don't think the spiciest level would be overkill, and I will be ordering that when I come back by myself. We also order the fishcake soup which was wonderful. I recommend starting with the soup to warm up the palette and stomach. And something about a nice hot soup is so satisfying. The fish cake skewers were so fun to eat. We did leave one to soak in the broth and it absorbed so nicely without getting mushy and breaking apart. Also got the chicken. My group didn't enjoy this as much because the sauce was very sticky to the point of caramel-y. I personally did not mind, but if you're considering this, be mindful that it's may stick to your teeth as your chewy. Great flavor nonetheless. Portion size and price was very good. Fair price, solid portion. All our food was shared between three people and we were very full afterward. Will be back!!

I'd recommend always checking their Yelp page ahead of time to join the waitlist before arriving just in case. Sometimes, they have people on the Yelp waitlist but they don't have staff actively checking it, so it's best to sign up and then arrive at the restaurant to let them know you're there.
