Poke bowl
Christina M.

Great Yelp find friendly staff Their portions are huge for poke bowel. Lots of options to build your bowl and with no limit on the free toppings it's not hard to build a big one. Their Korean spicy sauce has a huge kick do not play around with that one unless you can handle some serious heat. Come hungry and leave satisfied

Kinda underwhelming. Small portions and tiny amount of crab salad. Good flavor, good idea, bad execution. I even got the large bowl and it wasn't very much. Probably would not come back.

Spicy Pork Bulgogi Bibimbap
Jill C.

So much yum! Excited that this place is on the edge of Reno close to the Cali border. We all got bibimbap bowls full of fresh and tasty ingredients, topped with our choice of sauce and toppings! Meat was super juicy with the right amount of spice. Veggies were fresh and vibrant. Service was very friendly and patient with us as we were new to all the options and choices. Great spot we are eager to come back to!

I hated it
Paul A.

I live down the street and wanted to try something close to home. Glad I did! Almost licked my bowl clean. My two year old also ate one of the spring rolls and he hates everything! Staff was very friendly and clean. Definitely give this place a try.

We visited Kokos Bowls for the first time and were pleasantly surprised. You choose the ingredients for your bowls and everything is fresh and prepared very flavorfully. My husband had the poke bowl with ahi tuna, crab and various other items and sauces-it was so good! I had the teriyaki chicken bowl over rice with edamame, broccoli and green onions. Miso soup was served with both. Friendly, helpful service and great food!

This place is amazing and authentic. The owners are so very sweet and kind too! I highly recommend this place. It has become my go to

This is the first visit since they've changed from Koko's Kitchen to Bowls. We order at the counter, building your own bowls, in Poke style. We, a party of three, had all different bowls, and everything was great! The staff was really kind, and the attention to details, making sure we get freshly prepared food at the same time, is wonderful. The bowls are beautifully presented, the spicy bulgogi is flavorful, picked daikon is crispy, and the brown rice is perfectly cooked. Also the portion is just right. I loved everything about it! We will be back, and next time I'm definitely trying the Korean waffle sweets (the Korean version of Taiyaki, I think).

Calamari, eggrolls, and potstickers appetizer
Duncan H.

We called ahead and asked if they accept pets, they said no problem, "we are dog friendly" and we go in and wait 20 minutes while they serve two customers. Nobody else was in the restaurant. and after 20 minutes they tell us "pets not allowed" I said, "we called ahead" and she said that was a misunderstanding. I then asked "why would you wait 20 minutes to tell us . the rude lady's reply, "we were helping other customers". I said, all that would've been needed was a quick "hey no dogs allowed" when we entered the door. She was completely rude. I will never return again. The place is totally dead, and this was over the lunch hour. I am not sure how they stay in business. Avoid.

Beef Bulgogi Bibimbap
Jessica L.

Hands down the best bimbimbop place in Reno it's def made with love. The beef was so tender & yummy & the pork was perfectly cooked. The service was so good and I couldnt ask for anything better.

Wanted poke so we got some poke. Their decor in here is super cute and it is very inviting. The people working the counter were friendly, fast and informative. Killer deal on their Mon-Fri lunch specials. Poke bowl was very filling and came with soup not bad portions for $13.99. Bibimbap bowl was beautifully put together and looked delicious also. $16.99 for a monstrous size bowl and soup on the side!! We did tempura shrimp as our appetizer which were also, beautifully cooked. FRESHEST SELECTION AND FOOD FOR THIS SERVING STYLE I HAVE SEEN YET. VERY CLEAN AND VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER.

Lunch Spicy Pork Bulgogi Bibimbap
Karla R.

This place was absolutely amazing! Chongsuk was so incredibly helpful and patient since it was my first time! She helped me decide on the Spicy Pork Bulgogi! It wasn't too spicy and had an amazing texture! I also tried the picked radishes and even though i'm not a fan of normal radishes these were the so delicious and added an amazing texture! It also came with a side of miso which was pretty good! Inside was also so pretty and incredibly clean! I'm so glad i decided to come here! I definitely will be coming back again and asking for more recommendations!!

Spicy Pork Bulgogi Bibimbap

I've gone to koko's a few times. Both to go and dine in. The last time I visited I was with my best friend since it was down the street from my parents house in the north west area. It was on a weekday around lunch time but I was surprised it wasn't busy, there was one table finishing their meal and another order was for pick up. I ordered the spicy pork bibimbap which came with Kim chi and soup for my sides. The pork was nicely marinated which gave a little bit of sweet and spicy tones and the pork was tender. The veggies were fresh and crunchy and the egg was cooked to perfection. Kim chi and the soup gave balance to the bibimbap. We noticed there was dessert offered which we ordered 2 different fillings to try: Nutella and custard and we were not disappointed! They were made fresh and when we received it it was hot! Service was good, the same person that took our order checked on us frequently to make sure we were doing ok, which is appreciated. We spent about $52 with tip with my order, my friends order, and 2 desserts. The food is made to order and you are able to see them cook behind the counter; your clothes and hair will smell like the food being cooked, unsure if the fan or exhaust isn't strong enough. I hope this place continues to thrive in our community because their food is consistent and the service is always great! If you are ever in the northwest area and craving Korean food, definitely stop by!

So been wanting to try this place for a while. Was greeted…read moreimmediately as we walked in. We were a group of 4 and we were sat right away. The place was clean and no cleaning smell of any sorts as stated in some recent reviews. Also water was tasted fine too. Grills were very clean Rueben was our Server and he was excellent. We ordered All the meats . Spicy pork , Bulgogi , Hawaiian steak, Maple seasoned pork, Kobe beef , pot stickers , short ribs , spring rolls . Everything we had was great . Sides were good too. Had Rice and Rice paper too. Service was excellent they were on top of changing our grill when needed . Price is a little higher than a spot I usually go to, $42.95@ person for dinner . But over all I was satisfied with the food and the service. It was also my son's friend first time having ayce Korean bbq and he really enjoyed. I would come back , Family Enjoyed . Enjoy !!!!

Lacked ice and they dont have hot mustard other korea bbq places serve this kind of dish. Thought it would be another go to place for my korean cold noodle place but failed to make it. The dish also has slices of apple vs what is normally sold with shredded meat. Previous reviews still hold that the prices are really high for cheap meats. The ayce setup still gives you a lot on each dish and you risk over ordering and get the dreaded wasted food surcharge. Until they set their prices to a steal I would visit this place cautiously or it will drain your weekly dining budget quickly. Staff still is friendly like always and the place is always good to bring a big group but I wish they would make it "local" friendly on the pocket. If they perhaps gave smaller dishes each time you order beef you could order more variety but it limits you because one plate of beef is good to feed some people a full meal. That then defeats the purpose of ayce. A la carte items is also priced so high you cant get more than one dish for each person to get variety. To sum it up, they've rigged it to have each person spend at least 40 to 50 dollars to have a reasonably enjoyable experience here trying their many good items.

We hadn't been here for several years, but since we were in the area, we decided to give them…read moreanother try. One thing we noticed right away was that the bonchon was already set on the tables before guests arrived. It wasn't a large spread--just a small tin of cheese corn and a divided tray with kimchi, bean sprouts, and fish cake--not sure how long they were left out and did look and taste dry. The servers seemed to work well together. Different team members checked on us, cleared dishes, served food, and helped other's tables. Once it got busier, they also used robot servers to help deliver food. We started with the salad with house dressing and the popcorn chicken. Both were good, and the chicken was nice and moist. For the BBQ, we ordered the Chardol, Ju Mul Luck, Hawaiian Steak, Tri-Tip Bulgogi, and Galbi (short ribs). Having eaten at quite a few Korean BBQ restaurants in Las Vegas, we noticed the portions here were a bit smaller. They also limit each round to three appetizers and four meat selections. Overall, the service was good, and we especially appreciated Eurie for being friendly and attentive. The only thing that concerned us was when another server changed our grill. Instead of lightly drizzling oil onto the grill, she forcefully squeezed the bottle, causing the oil to shoot out onto grill. It seemed like an unnecessary safety risk for both guests and employees. Our favorites were definitely the Tri-Tip Bulgogi and the Galbi. Both were flavorful and tender. The Chardol was good, but the slices were very thin and the portion felt a little small. The restaurant filled up quickly between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m., so it's clearly a popular spot. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and would come back for the Tri-Tip Bulgogi, Galbi, and the teamwork displayed by the staff.

One of the biggest reasons I keep coming back is that it's one of the few Korean BBQ spots that…read morewelcomes solo diners without requiring a party of two. As someone who occasionally likes to eat alone, I really appreciate that. I've visited several times over the years, including recently under the newer ownership. Unfortunately, some of my old favorites aren't quite the same. I used to love their deep-fried oysters, which are no longer on the menu and have been replaced with deep-fried mussels. The kimchi stew recipe also seems to have changed and wasn't as memorable as before. That said, they still serve my favorite gopchang (beef small intestine). When cooked properly, it gets wonderfully crispy and reminds me of Mexican tripas tacos--definitely worth ordering. I'd personally skip the bibimbap appetizer. The rice was hard, the ground beef was cold, and it felt like it relied too heavily on the gochujang sauce for flavor. Even with those changes, I'll continue supporting this business. Service was also attentive.

I'm a HUGE fan of Chef Kwon...he's a genius in the kitchen!…read more Before I tell you about this great restaurant, let me give you some history. I first met Chef Kwon when he had the original Hiroba Sushi. At the time, it was my fave and considered as arguably the best sushi joint in the area. I followed him to Sushi 7 when he left Hiroba...equally delicious. Then I followed him to the original Tofu House when he opened that in Independence Square on Moana. I was puzzled when I found him at his new restaurant, being that he's trained a LARGE amount of the area sushi chefs and I only knew his sushi. He told me that Tofu House was his passion...as he put it, Korean Soul Food, straight from his roots and his heart. Unfortunately, the original location didn't survive the pandemic... After the pandemic, he opened Poke Doke/Bowls N Go, poke in Carson City...great food there, too. Then, finally, he reopened Tofu House in this new location! Located in a strip mall in South Reno, the ambience is casual and comfortable. The service is friendly and consistent...and the food is AMAZING! It's NOT all about Tofu...he has all the standard Korean dishes available, from Bibimbop to Bulgogi and his Japchae is out of this world. He also offers some unique spins on other dishes. It's one of my 2 favorite Korean places around and both are uniquely different from each other. I'll visit here whenever I get to the south end of town...in fact, I'll go out of my way to visit. I think you'll be very happy when you visit if you like this style of food...his cuisine is outstanding! I suggest, as always, that you go see for yourself to see what YOU think...

The food was really good overall. The flavors were rich and satisfying, and everything tasted fresh…read moreand well prepared. A solid spot when you are craving Korean comfort food. Service was friendly and attentive. Everything came out in a reasonable amount of time, and the staff made sure we had what we needed throughout the meal. The ambiance was comfortable and casual. Nothing overly fancy, but it had a nice atmosphere that made it easy to sit down and enjoy the food. Overall, a really good experience with tasty food, friendly service, and a comfortable atmosphere. Definitely somewhere I would come back to.

Let's just start with house made noodles daily. The Chow Fun noodles are made the way the server's…read morehome town made them. Wide and flat, just right to hold the mild savory sauce and bits of pork, green onion and bean sprouts. Not your run of the mill from dried noodles made in a large batch. A simple dish that in each ingredient is made to perfection and the sum of the parts is wonderful. The crab Rangoon was unlike any I've ever seen or tasted. Check out the picture. Beautiful and flavorful. Fried rice is my favorite and by which I judge any Chinese restaurant. Must be oily and but so much to cover the bottom of the bowl only cover the rice. Perfect! The space is small and reservations are required. Several parking spots adjacent to the restaurant and many more on the street. Service is up close and personal. You will be treated as friend and special guest. So make your reservation and prepare to be wowed. Of course they do take out.
