The place isn't the same as it was when it first opened. I remember in the beginning, there was an Asian manager who was always smiling and happy to help everyone, regardless if it was busy. Now that there are other workers, there's no enthusiasm, as if it's just another miserable part time high school job. I would think I could add any toppings to my rice bowl, but apparently it's limited. I requested tomatoes, since it was on display as the other regular rice bowl toppings, but she said it's for tacos only? I didn't think I wasn't allowed to add certain toppings since it's a freestyle bowl. I didn't complain because I was just over her demeanor. She also didn't offer kimchi, which is included in the order. When my friend ordered after me, she forgot to give him his drink. I'm not sure if that specific worker had a bad day, but it ruined our appetite. read more

This is definitely my go to eatery at the mall. Fresh ingredients, friendly staff with plenty of food court seating. The service is always fast and I love that you can mix and match your protein. Since KK is located in the mall court it can get a little noisy. We went on an early Saturday morning and there was a gentle hum of conversation around us but we were able to have a quiet conversation. KK is a must try and it's worth mentioning that they pack the entrees in recyclable boxes. Thumbs up for the packaging. read more

This was an unexpected find at Springfield Mall. I stopped to charge my car and was looking for a quick bite at the mall food court. You never expect to find something tasty at the food court. I was surprised by the quality and flavor of the food at Kokee Kitchen. The flavors were incredible and surprisingly authentic. Even the side of kimchi was delicious. And the glass noodles that came as a side had that amazing texture and bite. The young lady who helped me, quickly explained the setup (pick your protein, then pick your sides and sauces). Nothing overwhelming, and you really can't go wrong with any selections. In my opinion, this place is the best food selection at the food court. And that is underselling the place. Worth a trip just for the food. read more

Kokee Kitchen - Beef bulgogi Kokee Box - Korean Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

90% sure I got food poisoning from visiting this location yesterday afternoon. Haven't been able to keep anything down a few hours after consuming this. I got a bulgogi beef box and everything tasted great! I got all the toppings but for me the noodles and rice was a bit overkill. Just my personal preference. read more

Kokee Kitchen is located inside of the spring field mall a tad bit tucked away. I didn't get any food but I got the half dozen donuts because I didn't know which flavor to get so I just decided to get the ones I wanted to try the most. I got the coconut, Oreo, red velvet, matcha, and taro. I personally love taro flavored stuff and I'd say the flavor was the most distinct out of all.... Well I mean the taro and the coconut (I'm just not crazy about coconut). I tried all but the matcha because it was getting to be too much. The good thing about these donuts is that they aren't overly sweet like American donuts are but I'm not sure if I'd say these half dozen donuts were worth $16.95 which is what I paid including tax. They all kinda tasted the same in my opinion. I just like the chewy texture and the not too sweet ness of these donuts. Would I come back? Eh probably(if I'm in the mall) because I love desserts but I definitely would not pay for half a dozen or more... I'd just get my $2.99 taro mochi donut and call it. I don't think this is something I would necessarily crave either but I'm glad I killed my curiosity and tried it! read more

Kokee Kitchen - Half Dozen Mochi Donut - Korean Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

Located on the 2nd floor of the old Springfield Mall currently Springfield Center I think???? Anyways ordered a Beef Bulgogi taco it was amazing.. added kimchi, pico, cilantro and cabbage with soy garlic sauce, that first bite was incredible! Then ordered a half cheese and half sausage corn dog... so glad I did because it was also amazing with the soy and garlic sauce! Even with the surprise I got when I realized the sausage was actually a Vienna Weeny... but it works it was good! The young lady working the counter was so friendly and willing to help with any questions great customer service! Def recommend this for a quick delicious snack or meal.... read more

Terrible, the kimichi has a piece of plastic bag in it. Both the Bulgogi and spicy grilled chicken Kokee boxes we ordered were salty and not very tasty. I would stay away, it makes sense why no one else was ordering from them when we got to the food court. Simply terrible. read more

I ordered Kokee Box. It consists of half rice half japchae along with some greens & steamed corn. I chose Bulgogi as a topping with creamy chipotle. They have gochucang sauce as well as any other we can pick and NO, YOU CANT have 2 sauces :( The associate insists that we can only get one no matter how you convince you're willing to pay for extra lol Also lack of English maybe cause the misunderstanding about the sauce, maybeeeeeeeee idk but anyway it was OKAY. edible but of course we had better bulgogi everywhere else, right? But, if you are in the mall, hungry and wants a quick fix and refuse to stand on long line and Sarku Japan, this is your alternative for a quick ten bucks fix :) make sure you add some of those sauces because if not, it's quite plain and painful lol cheers! read more

I was in town for a wedding. Decided to get a bite to eat while my wife shopped around. I walked around the food court and saw that lots of people had these brown paper to go boxes which looked like some kind of Korean concoction. I made my way to Kokee kitchen and saw the brown boxes. There was an ideal taco special that was on displayed that looked like it would hit the spot. For 10$. It was the best food court food I have ever had. You get a pork, bugolgi, and chicken taco. Complete with whatever fixing and sauces you want. I live in Rockville and would be so happy if they opened a small stand or eatery in my local mall. read more

Kokee Kitchen - Taco special- Added spicy mayo, the fav special, and spicy sauce. - Korean Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

Kokee Kitchen is located in the Food Court in Springfield Mall and is a decent option if you are looking for a quick bite while shopping. They have an interesting menu that includes tacos with a variety of meats, Korean fried wings, and even a corn dog with cheese inside. We decided to go with the bulgogi tacos and Korean fried wings in soy garlic sauce. Both were pretty average overall. You get to choose from a variety toppings (lettuce, corn, Kim chi, cheese, etc.) for your tacos which was a nice surprise. The wings were pretty big and freshly fried so you are guaranteed a hot entree. The soy garlic sauce isn't as sweet as you would expect like some of the other chains but still pretty tasty. Wanted to grab a quick bite so I didn't want to get the corn dog... might be something for next time. read more

Try everything. I haven't yet but everything iv had so far is 10/10! YUMMY! My fav place in the malls food court.

It feels so wrong to review a restaurant in the food court of a mall, but the food is so good that to not write about it would be selfish to you, the public. For $11 I got a pretty good and filling meal. The bulgaggi box with meat, rice, dumplings, and noodle all tasted fresh and delicious. The meats had excellent flavor and texture. The cellophane noodles are absolutely excellent as are the crispy dumplings. The fresh greens balance out the spicy with that extra aura to minimize the intensity of that Korean BBQ flavor. I also got a Passionfruit Boba tea. It tastes great and is plentiful. Definitely worth the $3. The container it comes in is not the best. Unless I eat this with chopsticks, you will lose some food. Then again I am a bit of a messy eater so take my criticism how you want to take it. Whether you like Korean/Asian fusion cuisine or not, this was a great value lunch. I will not hesitate to return. read more

Interesting taco with a little different ingredients from the usual taco. Chicken needs to be a bit more moist. read more

Kokee Kitchen - Kokee chicken taco. - Korean Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

Food was cold and the chicken was mushy. I had high expectations and was disappointed by the food quality.

The Korean chicken wings isn't newly cooked, very salty.. did not finish it after one chicken wing. And I only felt bad that's why I finished one chicken. Threw everything away. I feel bad for my wallet smh... would not order again. read more

This place was a little hard to find since it wouldn't show up on google maps, but it's just in the food court of a big mall. Anyway, I got a Kokee Box, which came with rice, salad, choice of meat (I did half pork and half shrimp) and a sauce to top it off (chili kochujang). The rice was hot, like it was just cooked, the shrimp was crispy and went well with the kochujang sauce. It's a genuinely good take out place in the food court. I believe they also have a cafe with bubble tea and stuff somewhere else in the mall as well. read more

A friend of mine introduced me to this place. She told me how delicious and affordable the food is and that I should check it out. I was wondering why there was a long line. No Lie. The Bulgogi Kokee Bowl is delicious! It's my favorite one so far. I tried the spicy pork and it's just as good . They give out military discount, by the way. Unless they changed it. ‍ Either way, food is amazing and the staff are friendly. They will give you that big smile. I recommend eating here . read more

Kokee Kitchen - Bulgogi KOKEE BOX - Korean Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

I ordered K chicken mild and it was so bad the chicken was so dry with no flavor . And the cashier was so weird like no customer service.

Who would have thought that tucked in Springfield Mall would be a pretty spectacular Korean-American place with an awesome value. Trying to eat out tonight but not looking to spend these crazy high inflation prices? Go here! It's fast. It's better than other surrounding joints, and a variety of flavors in one box! read more

Kokee Kitchen - Beef Bulgogi Box with all the fixings. Included japchae, a little kimchi, and your choice of toppings and sauce. Thumbs up! - Korean Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

This place is probably the best spot to get Korean cuisine at a affordable price or just when you're in a hurry. I had the k-dosirak combo with beef bulgogi | chicken dumplings. Everything was great| rice | chicken dumplings was nice and hot. However the beef bulgogi I had wasn't fresh off the grill or even slightly hot when they serve it. I will come back and give it another chance Overall very happy!!! read more

Pretty tasty! The tortillas were not as good as I would have liked but the meat and toppings were good. A nice spicy sauce and a good mango slaw was on each taco. Staff had a hard time answering a question but it all worked out. read more

Good fast food spot in Springfield Mall. Delicious Asian mix of rice, noodles, with choices of tofu, chicken (and maybe shrimp) in a bowl with vegetables. Reminded me of a delicious mix of Chinese and Korean with the appropriate spices and sauces. The service was good and luckily there was no line at the time. On a subsequent trip to the Mall there was a massive line of folks placing orders. I'd recommend looking over the menu online and if you are curious its well worth a meal or two. read more

The food has gone downhill. I think there is new management. My food got burnt the last time I was there. I couldn't finish it and threw it away. Didn't bother for a refund. read more

We will be back it was so yummy read more

Delicious, affordable Korean food. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The wings are amazing. I had the soy honey garlic wing with gochujang sauce on the side and the fried shrimp. The Kokee box or dosirak is plentiful and delicious. read more

I wish I could give 4 stars because the service was excellent, food was delicious and portions were big. Alas, the food was not hot, except for the rice. Rice, noodles, dumplings, salad with 1/2 bulgogi and 1/2 K-chicken for only $8.96. There's also an array of self serve sauces including gochujang and sriracha mayo. read more

I ordered via Uber and I was wowed by the sauces, sometimes the food came a bit soggy because how much sauce was drenched but I'm sure if I would have ordered in person, it wouldn't be that way. I enjoyed the fried shrimp and the spicy pork: they did manage to get my order wrong but it's all good. Loved the spicy sriracha. read more

I got the K-Dog it was okay and reasonable price. However the dough was overcooked and over crunchy. It was not a K-Dog I had this was by far the worst K-Dog I had. Others may like it but I had better and not as heavy & crunchy. It tasted more like a big mozzarella stick because the dough shouldn't be this thin and crunchy. I'll have to keep trying and look around. read more

Maaaaan, am I happy to have randomly find this place. My fiancé had the Bulgogi Box and I had the three tacos. Our meal was amazing!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our food and the staff was very kid.

Yum yum yum a very surprising place inside the Springfield mall food court!! It's a korean street food/rice bowl place. I came specifically for the street dog which is basically a giant sized mozzarella stick. It's SO GOODDD and I've only ever gotten it in korea and California before now :') I highly recommend getting the wasabi garlic sauce with it. read more

Finally got the chance to try this place and was pretty impressed. Fast food in a mall food court can be hit or miss and this was def a hit. They have an abundant selection of meat, fillings, and sauce. They're known for their "boxes" but I got the tacos with half bulgogi and half bbq chicken - both delicious meat. Their slaw is amazing! Everyone else I was with got the boxes which were good, but with everything thrown in there without dividers it was a little messy and unappetizing. The box presentation is the only reason I'm giving this place 4 stars instead of 5. If I could do 4.5 I would. Also the woman at the register was so sweet!!! She gave us extra sauce in our to go order so we could try them all. Didn't get her name but she was a delight! read more

I was quite pleased with this restaurant. My girlfriend and I went to the mall to grab some food. First thing we see is "kokee kitchen" at first I thought I read that wrong. I thought "kokee tea" just relocated. The manager on duty was quite nice. Actually, offered us coconut shrimp, which was crispy and cooked to perfection. I ordered a bulgogi kokee box with Korean style japchae, topped with spicy mayo. The bulgogi was very flavorful, and well seasoned. The box is packed with white rice and a homemade salad. Overall, the food is very delicious. It's a good fix if you're in the mood for Korean food. Definitely would return. read more

Kokee Kitchen - Food was so good, I couldn't stop to take picture - Korean Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

I have no pictures posted for a reason. My only regret was sleeping on this establishment for as long as I did. Anyways, I had the kokee bowl with beef bulgolgi. Added some cucumbers with light lettuce and the two spicy sauces and hit the spot! As a lover of spicy food, it didn't hit me till I was almost done, and the flavors were there and so on point. Then I had two tacos, one chicken and the other bulgolgi. Each of them had the same toppings, just tomato salsa and shredded cheese with the chipotle dressing. All I gotta say was wow, I was really Impressed. To me, it's even better than chipotle. read more

Great food with good and fast service! I really love being able to have more Asian options (even more excited that it's Korean food) in the Springfield Mall Foodcourt. I ordered the Bulgogi Kokee Box and it was DELICIOUS. I like how you get so much for a very affordable price. With the Kokee Box you can choose from a wide variety of meat and you can choose from lettuce, green mix, rice, japchae, or ALL OF IT. Really recommend trying out! read more
