    One of the few local Korean spots in the EL area. I love getting their hwedupbap. They have a lot of seating and very cute decorations. Overall, good Korean food with good service.

    Side dishes

    Neat place near MSU with good waitstaff. Food came quickly for a Korean restaurant. Food wise there were 4 of us. 1) Bulgogi Beef 2) Spicy Pork 3) Kimchi Chigae - type of soup with beef, tofu, vegetables. Etc. 4) Meat Fried Rice - Chicken The Bulgogi Beef was good. Everyone liked it but it was not as flavorful as some of the other restaurants I have been to. Spicy Pork was a hit. It was very good. Kimchi Chigae was good but not we won't order it again. Meat Fried Rice was plain. The side dishes were good. Given the uneven dishes, we rated as 4*. Note: We will come back and eat here again. I would recommend to people in the Lansing area to come and try out and figure out what dishes you prefer the best. 4) meat Fried Rice-Chicken

    Their version of tteokbokki looks quite good here. Someone had a large order and thus would delay our food from being done sooner. Our order would take about 25-30 minutes. The restaurant entrance is actually in the back part of the building. The sign at the corner threw me off. They do not take American Express here at all. Only MasterCard Visa. The tteokbokki is quite spicy, flavorful too, but not that impressive. They gave little containers of kimchi, radish kimchi, fish cake, radish. The fish cake and the radish kimchi were good. The kimchi and the white radish weren't my favorite. Be careful opening all of the side dishes and the tteokbokki too, there was a nice mixture of water or condensation with resources around the edges of the containers when I open them. It splashed everywhere and got anywhere and everywhere. It was a mess.

    Gimbap - rare to find in many Korean Restaurants, maybe because it's not cheap to make?
    Nyobie Q.

    When you arrive, go around the side of the building where the entrance is located. We parked out front and at first, we couldn't find the door. The large sign on top of the building got us to where we needed to park but it was raining and we could have parked closer to the door if we knew the entrance was around the side. No big deal. It was a minor issue but I thought I'd try to save you some time trying to find the front door. :) We tried this restaurant last weekend and it was really good considering that my absolute favorite is really hard to compare against which is in Novi. The dishes we ordered were Gimbap, LA Kalbie, Ojingo Bokkeum, and Bulgogi. Banchan was plentiful and tasty as well. Everything was fresh. I had covid during the fall of 2021 so my taste buds have been off a bit since I regained some of my sense of smell but I can still tell a difference between dishes served at different restaurants. I'd definitely come back again. The wait staff were efficient and food came out rather quickly considering the restaurant was about 75% filled with dine-in customers. The only minor down-side is ventilation which is pretty common in Korean Restarants. It was a big muggy out because of the rain and the food aroma from the kitchen lingered in the air because of it. When we left, I could still smell the cooking oils on my clothing and in my hair for quite a while. So, if you're sensitive to smells, getting carry-out might be a good option. It would be worth the trip, especially since the alternative in the area did an awful job cooking Ojingo bokkeum as they served it nearly raw so definitely try this place and I think you'll be pleased. Enjoy!

    Spicy Chicken
    Paul Yelp N.

    Wow what an awesome experience. I use to come here as a student and thought it was great. So.. coming in I was not certain if I was just starving back then or if it were really good. JUST as good as I remember! Great food, great service, and a really good value. I had the Spicy Chicken dinner for just $9.51 after taxes and without tip. Food: Kimchi and other relishes we very good and a large variety, which I loved. See pix. I was not expecting the seafood cake. That is the pizza shaped item. It was different and decent but a tad bland. The rice was sticky and perfect. The chicken itself was very flavorful with some vegetables that were not over cooked. The only area for improvement would be I detected a slight warmed over flavor in the meat and it was not nearly spicy enough. However not even close to making the food not enjoyable. Service: outstanding! I had 3 separate servers so that was slightly confusing but they were all very kind and down right

    Complimentary Miso Soup
    Stephanie L.

    Korea House is a hidden gem. You wouldn't expect this but they serve both sushi and Korean food at an affordable price and generous portion. I really like the hand rolls are here. My favorite hand roll is the spicy tuna. They even have a fried salmon skin option which you don't see often in this area. My favorite stir fry dish is the spicy pork. Before you receive your meal, they give you a complimentary bowl of miso soup. They also give you about 4-5 side dishes. If you want more, they will refill it for free!

    I came for one purpose.. to have their jaengban jjajang (tray black noodle). I was told it was decent and at $24 and pocket change, it was a good value. First of all, I can eat, but there's no way I would have finished this... so I enlisted my nephew to join, ordered the dish, and we still had leftovers. This should be more for 3+ people. While their jjajang is not the best in Michigan, the taste was decent, far better then most other restaurants that offer jjajang... their jjajang had a hint of spice that hit you and we weren't 100% sure, but we think they add chili powder into the sauce when they made it. This is the only jjajang with seafood, so if you are craving seafood jjajang, grab a buddy and swing by. Their banchans were ok, not the best of quality, but decent. The service was okay too, there were time when you had to flag the staff down. The entrance is in the back, so park towards the back of the building.

    Bowl Express - Seasoned Chicken

    Bowl Express

    3.6(14 reviews)

    If you ever wanted to visit a restaurant that was having an identity crisis, then this is a place…read morefor you!! Instead of Bowl Express, they should call the place 'United Nations Cafeteria'! In fact, the front of the restaurant really has no sign that identifies the place as a restaurant, other then pictures of Korean foods, even then the place is hard to miss! Unless you happen to go to Tasty Twist since it's located next door. The decor is very 70's.... the wall colors of purple and orange-ish yellow color mixed in with green MSU banner, etc. doesn't not blend well.... The main menu is on the wall behind the cash register and they have one menu that's on the counter top. We were the only customers there and our intention was to get the chicken to see how it was, but ended up ordering other foods. After we looked at the menu, we settled on the following: - Bulgogi Burger - Bulgogi Gyro - Original Gyro - whole order of seasoned chicken The man who took our order also did the cooking... don't expect to get your food quickly; we got all of our food together.. I think it took around 20 minutes to get them. Bulgogi Burger - concept is the same as hamburger, but the meat is replaced with bulgogi, since the meat is loose, expect some to land on your lap. It's served with lettuce, tomatoes and 1000 Island dressing on a sesame buns. Gyro - onions, lettuce with either original or bulgogi served with cucumber sauce. The original was decent... even for E. Lansing area... granted I had better Gyro's in my life, but being in EL area, it was decent. Chicken - whole chicken is chopped into smaller pieces, battered, fried and mixed with Korean Red Sauce and topped with chopped peanuts (if you are allergic to peanuts, make sure you let them know). The chicken was hot (temp hot), the sauce had little kick to it thanks to the chili powder and black peppers that were used. The sauce is thick, thus it'll stick to your fingers. If you get the seasoned chicken, you should get some side of rice. For the Burger and Gyro's we opted to go with the combo, which comes with fountain drink and small side of fries. The fries were okay, bot the best... frozen fries refried and served. The fountain drinks are hidden in the back, so you'll have to find your way for the drinks. There is no focus on single product with offering of others around that product... it's free for all, as you can get hamburger and bibimbop all at once. The Fusion foods they have was nice... the place is also outside of MSU campus area, thus requires one to either walk, bike, bus it or drive. I did notice that they take online orders through third parties. I think they can streamline their menu and focus on few major food items... it took us some time to decide on what to get because of the so many offering. I ended up giving 3 stars since 2.5 isn't allowed... I think this place could become something, but again they should redo their menu and shrink it down.

    I visited recently for the first time and had one of the best meals I've ever had in my life! I got…read morethe Den Jang Ramen. It had a kick to it, but the flavor was perfect. With noodles, beef, bok choy, and delicious broth, I would highly recommend trying this dish. While the building is a bit unassuming due to the "Teriyaki Gyro" sign connected to Tasty Twist, go right in. Order at the counter. Make yourself at home.
