    One of my favorite places in Eugene! Great service, quality meats, and a wonderful ambiance. It checks the boxes for KBBQ! While the menu is limited compared to other KBBQ experiences (like in L.A. or larger cities), for Eugene, this is the spot. I recommend getting the steamed egg and galbi--but there really is something for everyone!

    Having been gone from the Bay Area for decades and missing the cultural diversity, I was all in when I heard Eugene had a Korean BBQ spot, and All You Can Eat (AYCE)... say whaaaaat?!? So they give you 2 hours, with a last call at the 1.5 hr mark. You can order 3 meats at a time, from their extensive menu of 3 different pricing plans. Got there before 6pm on a Saturday evening and the wait list grew rapidly, but we were sat within 15 mins. Lotsa young kids tending to the tables, giving friendly and helpful service. This team was always moving and I quickly realized we would need to snag them on their way coming and going. I loved that they changed our grill plate as it got gooey... they probably saw me trying to scrape it clean, haha! Though they were pretty busy we didn't feel forgotten or like we were bothering them if we needed to flag them down for something. All in all a fun 1st time for most in our group. My favorite part was that my growing boys finally got stuffed from the mass quantity of protein... it's not often they will tap out when there's meat around!

    amazing food and service! we got the AYCE premium package and had 5 sides and rice ready at the table when we were sat. we got bulgogi (to die for), spicy chicken, and shrimp. first KBBQ experience and it was so fun! our server Lisa was on top of replacing our grill, getting new meats, replacing water, etc. the melona ice cream was so refreshing and yummy too, perfect end to a perfect meal.

    Corn cheese, LA Galbi, and Hawaiian Beef!
    Taylor B.

    Wow. I had never had Korean BBQ before, so I was a little nervous about the whole process. However, I had had such a blast! The employees were very helpful with any questions and were attentive. We got the step up from the standard package, and I think I would do that again. Every meat we got was so good, particularly the soy garlic pork belly, the LA galbi , and the Hawaiian beef! I'm still thinking about them days later. We also tried the steamed egg and cheese corn, which were also fabulous. Something you must order is the soju cocktail! I wish more restaurants offered soju cocktails and this one was so good. I also liked how the restaurant itself was very nice. I appreciated the very separate tables and the ranges that kept odors and smoke to a minimum. We will absolutely be back, and hopefully soon!

    Seafood pancake
    Darcey H.

    I LOVE this place. It reminds me of living in NYC and going for late night dinners in K-town. The food is hot, the beer is cold and the place is open late. We always get the seafood pancake to start followed by marinated ribs and bulgogi beef. This is the perfect amount for 4 people. We've never done the all you can eat. It seems like overkill for just the two of us. Service is always friendly and prompt. And the K-pop music videos are mesmerizing.

    Taste is solid but I've never seen an entire head of cabbage in a dish... there was more cabbage than tteokbokki

    At first, we didn't know you had to sign in for wait list as many would ask you if you were waiting or who was first. Another party walked in as we were sitting and waiting for someone to come to the front. They hostess knew them and immediately got them set. I then asked how does this work and got my name on. They didn't remember to bring things we requested as they seemed short handed. If only our they could've done so the rating would be higher. Food was decent and we ate good. Hoping for a better experience, but there is also another Korean BBQ place to give our hard earned money to.

    Are there any gluten free options?

    Any meat or veggie without sauce definitely qualifies for that requirement and they do have plenty of that for you to cook on the menu.

    I had an amazing time here at Tiger Mama! I've heard from many local people saying that this place…read moreis the best and I have to agree. It reminds me of a mid-scale, small family owned, hot spot in the Silverlake/Los Angeles area where everybody goes for good food and a fun evening out. We were seated next to the doll from Squid Game. It was perfect spot because it felt like we were in the middle of the room to see everything. We joked that the Squid Game girl should speak every so often. lol Had a few of the Tiger Bomb (beer and shot of soju) drinks to start and for appetizer, we started out with a half order of the honey soy KFC. Those wings were crispy and delicious! For dinner, I opted for the bulgogi bi bim bap. It came sizzling in the cast iron bowl. I was surprised at how much meat they put in this dish. I was expecting just a few small pieces but they load it up for you. It was really good and I like how the sizzling pot was hot enough to actually crisp up the rice on the bottom. My friend had the beef bulgogi japchae. It was a big portion and since I was only allowed to try a little bit, it was all i needed to know that it was delicious. Decor was cute and service was good. Our waiter came and checked on us a few times. I'm excited to come here again next month!

I stopped in for a drink while my to go order was being made and had a Tiger Bomb, a beer with a shot of soju mixed in. The drink was great, and the service was incredibly hospitable. Even though I was just waiting on a to go order, they offered me complimentary banchan, little bites of cabbage, carrots, and cucumber, to snack on while I drank and waited. That was much more hospitality than I expected from simply picking up food. The prices are very reasonable for what you get. The portions are generous, everything tasted fresh, and the food felt genuinely high quality. The Korean fried chicken is really, really good. I got the Volcano sauce, and it is legitimately hot. Not restaurant spicy. Actually spicy. I eat the spiciest of the spicy food, and this was a good 8 out of 10 for me, which is probably a 15 out of 10 for most people. It has serious heat, but plenty of flavor underneath it. The dry rub chicken balanced it perfectly, with a tangy, acidic, savory flavor that cut through the richness and paired really well with the Volcano sauce. Crispy chicken, acid, spice, and a cold beer is a pretty hard combination to beat. I also got the kimbap with spicy pork, and that was amazing too. The rice and fillings tasted really fresh, the pork had a great savory sweetness and heat, and the vegetables added freshness and texture. Every bite had a little bit of everything. Between the food, Tiger Bomb, complimentary banchan, and service, I was already thinking I had found a new place I really liked. Then I got home. The only real downside was unfortunately the tteokbokki, which is ironic because that was the entire reason I found Tiger Mama. It was literally the term I typed into Yelp that led me there. And this is where the review gets complicated. Flavor wise, it was amazing. The sauce was sweet, tangy, savory, and a little spicy, with that deep gochujang flavor you want from tteokbokki. The fish cakes were tender, plentiful, and full of flavor. There were glass noodles, mandu, and half a hard boiled egg, giving it a lot of different textures. It felt like a more elaborate, modern take on the classic Korean dish. The rice cakes themselves were fantastic. Great size, wonderfully tender and chewy, and soaked in that delicious sauce. Honestly, the tteok I did receive might be the best I have had while dining out. My problem was that I received three of them. Three individual rice cakes. In an $18 order of tteokbokki. That was genuinely disappointing. Tteokbokki was why I came here. It was what I searched for and what drew me in. The menu picture showed plentiful, delicious little rice pillows sitting in sauce, which was exactly what I had been craving. Instead, I got a large serving of glass noodles, fish cakes, mandu, sauce, egg, and three rice cakes in a dish named after the rice cakes. If this had been the only thing I ordered, I could easily see myself leaving a sour one star review and never going back. But that would not represent the experience I had. Everything else was too good. As someone who loves Korean cuisine, both cooking it at home and eating it out, I can tell there is a lot of care put into this food. Even the tteokbokki was excellent in every respect except the rice cake quantity. The sauce was perfect, the fish cakes were great, the mandu was a nice surprise, and the sweet, spicy, tangy, savory flavors worked ridiculously well together. It also pairs really well with a beer. Or six. Unfortunately, I live too far away to have noticed until I got home, and they were already closed. I'll call tomorrow, and based on the service I received, I'm confident they'll make it right. Three rice cakes for $18 was genuinely disappointing, but I'm not going to let what seems like one portioning mistake outweigh an otherwise excellent experience. The food, atmosphere, hospitality, and care put into everything were too good. Tiger Mama is a great addition to the Whit, and I'll absolutely be back. Especially for more tteokbokki. Hopefully next time, more than three.

I missed the entrance so I parked at the big parking lot adjacent and walked over. I was greeted right away and was seated in a booth. There were a few people enjoying their meals. I ordered the steamed egg as an appetizer and the bi bim bap. The entree comes with an assortment of banchan and I was pleased with the selections. It was fresh and flavorful. I wasn't too happy with the steamed egg. It was dry and felt more like a baked egg. You can smell the baking soda/powder metallic, bitter smell in it. The bi bim bap was good. It came sizzling hot. I think the rice was just a tad wet because it didn't make a nice, even crust on the bottom. Instead, it burned some parts of the rice. As for flavor, most of it had to come from the bottle of 'bi bim bap' sauce that was watered down. After I doctored it a bit, the dish came out perfect. I feel this place has a lot of potential. Prices were a bit on the high end, but this is Eugene and there isn't much or any competition for Korean restaurants here. Overall, good place, good service, clean restaurant and please don't be shy about using full flavor!

    There are no reservations at this restaurant, so it's first come first serve. Street parking was…read moreeasy to find, and we arrived around 7. The place was packed, but thankfully we were seated quite quickly with a 5-10 minute wait. The interior is cozy and welcoming. It's dimly lit with mood lighting on the tables. It felt lively since the tables were packed. We started by ordering the sake and shoyu flights and some fries with wasabi mayo while we explored the rest of their menu. We received the flights quickly. Both flights had 3 flavors and were tasty and fun to try. Each flight comes with a menu describing the flavor profile and how the drinks were made. The flavors of each flight were distinct and matched their descriptions. The fries with wasabi mayo were pretty basic fries. They were well seasoned, had a nice crunch, and the mayo had a subtle wasabi flavor without it being spicy. For our next round we ordered the salmon misoyaki, butternut squash, tofu kushiyaki, and steak kushiyaki. Unfortunately, our server forgot to bring our butternut squash, but we ended up being full with the rest of the food we ordered and just took it off our order. The salmon misoyaki was delicious - perfectly cooked, tender, and well seasoned. The mustard greens on the side added a nice sourness. The tofu kushiyaki was tender and flavorful. The steak kushiyaki was well-seasoned, but more well done than I preferred and a little tough. Next, we ordered the spinach goma ae and umeboshi unigiri. The spinach goma ae was such a pleasant surprise! It's a chilled spinach dish with a tamari/black sesame sauce that was refreshing mid-meal. Really good umami flavor! The umeboshi onigiri had the expected sharp salty/sour flavor that balanced well with the ratio of rice. Ended up dipping the umeboshi onigiri in the goma ae sauce to get every last drop. For dessert we ordered the basque cheesecake and créme brûlée. The cheesecake was just okay. The menu said there was sake and black sesame flavors, but apart from some black sesame dust on the plate we couldn't taste the sake/sesame. The texture was thick and not super smooth. It was a pretty heavy dessert and not very sweet. The créme brûlée was yummy. The custard was smooth and the crunchy caramelized sugar on top was a nice contrast in texture and flavor. The service itself was slow. We were waiting around 15 minutes between orders. Given, it was a busy night. However, we felt a bit forgotten as our server did forget to bring one of our dishes, we had to ask for our dessert menus twice, and we were accidentally served two basque cheesecakes instead of our order of cheesecake and créme brûlée. The staff were friendly, and quickly brought out the correct desserts at the end. I'd recommend ordering more dishes at once so you can enjoy more food in between orders. Would definitely come back again to try the rest of their menu. We wanted to try the Japanese sweet potato but they had sold out that night. The oysters, sashimi, and udon also looked quite good!
