This restaurant serves a variety of food ranging from ramen, soups, sushi, and bowls. The woman working there was very friendly and my food was ready within a few minutes. I ordered the Seafood Noodle soup The soup included bits of shrimp, clams, mussels, octopus and noodles. The broth did not have a lot of flavor, there wasn't a lot of seafood included, and the ingredients weren't very fresh. There was also a side of pickled radish that wasn't fresh. read more

KPop Sushi - Seafood Noodle Soup - Korean Near Me - Irvine, California

This restaurant is located inside of Zion Market (an amazing Asian grocery store that is closing down at this location). Hence, the setting is very much like a food court than anything else. That being said, the food was AWESOME. Like I did not expect it to be so good -- the stir fried squid udon was packed with flavor, strong Wok Hei (breath of the wok; it's a distinct taste) and the ramen was savory and warmed the heart. All for a decent price too! This definitely is not a sit down restaurant kind of deal; you order at the counter and they call your number. However, if you need a quick bite to eat in the middle of shopping, this is the place to go (and honestly I'd come here just to eat too -- it's that good)! read more

Amazing gem! Great customer service! Had seafood soba noodle-huge portion!!! Going a second time to try the rolls read more

I ordered from here two tines for food delivery at work. First time the food tasted like it was spoiled - like they passed on old food for the delivery ordered. I have them a second chance thinking maybe it was a fluke/ but the second time- saw tbi g the food is definitely not acceptable. Perhaps they do a better job for dine in.... Definitely a hard pass for delivery. read more

My daughter was taking coding with Code Ninja for the summer camp so after I picked her up, we decided to check the surrounding for food. We went to Zion Market's food court. My daughter is extremely picky in a way she doesn't want too much sauce or sauce touching her food. So, I was surprised that she wanted to try the teriyaki chicken but she just wants chicken and rice. The owners (husband and wife presumably) were packing for a very large takeout order. The husband, the cook, took my order and I was very specific about just chicken and rice only, everything else on the side. He even asked me if green onions were OK. I told him on the side, only chicken and rice. He made it just as I described and my daughter loved it. She ate half of it and we took the other half to go. My daughter was happy and I'm happy too. He came out later to check on us to make sure we were OK and also gave my daughter a gummy snack! My lunch was spicy pork BBQ. Very yummy. Nice heat and very good over rice. I'm now motivated to try other dishes! read more

Well - might as well get the pre-boxed sushi at H-Mart in my opinion. A little cheaper and better it appears to me. Don't get the Veggie Roll whatever you do. It used to have more varied veggies and nice crunchy texture, but is now almost all lettuce with a bit of carrot and a bit of avocado here and there. Easily falls apart as well. read more

The food was great with a lot of seafood and the portion was definitely big. I would say for two people. Over all great read more

Located in Zion market, K-pop sushi is our goto whenever we are grocery shopping! K-pop sushi offers a variety of sushi rolls and hot foods. We have yet to try the hot foods but have tried several of their sushi rolls! They sometimes have a special where you buy one roll and get the second roll for 50% off! They usually put out a sign or I always ask if the special is offered. Some of our favorites here are the baked salmon roll, spider roll, shrimp tempura crunch roll, and California roll. The sushi is fairly priced and most of the time made to order. They may have some rolls already made placed in the fridge for you to choose from! A good place for some affordable sushi. I'd definitely recommend supporting and giving them a try! P.S. you can phone in your order, find them on postmates or ubereats. Sometimes they even have special promotions on the apps! read more

If you're looking for something quick, affordable, and delicious, K Pop Sushi is a great choice! It's also located in Zion Market if you want to get banchan such as kimchi or cucumber. There's also another location inside Wholesome Choice Market. Each time I visit, the cashier is always super sweet! I actually get the Korean food rather than the sushi. I highly recommend the Spicy Seafood noodle (I've gotten it twice!). It comes with a good amount of shrimp, clams, squid, and pork. I also really enjoyed the grilled vegetables and texture of the noodle. The squid udon was also delicious! My friends and I had to pass on the black bean noodle and sweet and sour pork. The "crunchy" pork was difficult to chew and the sauce was ok. Other than that, I'd definitely come back again to try different dishes. read more

Okay, restaurant name aside, this is a place I'll definitely be coming back to. Located inside Zion Mart, it's right across from the jjajangmyeon place. There's enough seating where you can order from either place to sit down and eat, but it can get pretty crowded. After browsing the mart for a long time while deciding what to eat for dinner, I settled on getting the hwae-deop-bap (raw fish with veggies and rice mixed altogether with gochujang and sesame oil) here for to-go. The ahjusshi working here (I presume he's the owner because he was the only one working there at that time) kindly told me my food will be ready in about 10-15 minutes. During that time, I was preoccupied with browsing all the side dishes in the refrigerated section, and the next thing I knew, he brought out my order. I got back home and ended up eating more than half of the food (I was stuffed, but the food was so good). The raw fish tasted fresh, there was more than enough sauce, and I think I got my weekly intake of veggies in one night. Rice cooked just right, and I loved the side of miso soup. After storing the leftovers in the fridge, I ate the remaining ~1/3 for lunch the next day. Still tasted as good. Value food worth 2 meals, was only around $11. Highly recommend!! read more

KPop Sushi - hwae-deop-bap (rice and miso soup separate) with sauce and sesame oil - Korean Near Me - Irvine, California

This is the little sushi stand that could...it's inside the Zion market. The one off of Jeffrey and Michelson, not the one off of Irvine Boulevard. I keep telling everybody to come here for sushi, my favorite is ordering a Catering sushi platter for all of my potluck, and social events. They are generous with their cuts of the nigiri fish and they work with you on your rolls selection. They are so kind to take into consideration shellfish allergies for school parties, and other specifications that I ask for. Sometimes I will ask for more cooked items in my rolls and they always hook me up. Their sushi platters are always the first thing to be snatched up at every party. I will just call in and tell Ryan if i want a $50 or $100 platter. I labeled them in my photos. Go in and place an order of rolls made to order and Mandu-gu (dumpling soup) or katsu Curry over rice. One serving can feed two people. The value is awesome and it's a tasty meal made to order. Go shop for your groceries and by the time you check out and double back your order is ready. read more

This was my first time trying sushi from this place. I was worried the recent stay home orders were going to keep me from writing reviews, but I realized we could get food delivered for free. The food was pretty decent for the price. I had a standard rainbow roll, which was $8. I didn't think the raw fish tasted too fresh, but I didn't really expect much out of a delivery. It still satisfied my sushi craving though! My husband had the shrimp tempura crunch roll ($9?) and he liked it, but the rice was a little soggy. Overall, we were fine with it because we didn't expect it to be top grade sushi, but good enough to fill our cravings! read more

Got food poisoning from their California roll. Didn't seem fresh when I ate it and now I can confirm that it definitely wasn't fresh. Should have listened to the other reviews about getting sick. Looks like it's a trend. Maybe this place needs a health inspection. read more

I've only had K Pop Sushi twice and both times from UberEats so I can't comment on service or what the location is like. However, the food from here has all been quite good. The first time around I got three sushi rolls and all of them were a healthy serving with about 8 pieces per roll. They came nearly packed and had plenty of fish, avocado, shrimp, etc. Like they were healthy sized rolls, not the scrawny cucumber stuffed ones you get at fast food places. They recently added their hot foods as well to their takeout menu and I quite liked their dumpling rice cake soup. A very hearty serving and you can pay $2 to get it topped with about 8 pieces of fish cake! I really liked the option to get some toppings put in your soup so that you don't have to choose. My dad and brother have ordered their fried udons and both enjoyed them. They came with a side of shredded cabbage and danmuji. read more

Ordered through UberEats and everything went smoothly. Make sure you let your driver know that the store is located INSIDE zion market! I ordered: - California roll - Dragon roll - Shrimp tempura crunch roll - Pork cutlet rice Everything was delish and packaged securely! My hubby gobbled up the pork cutlet. Highly recommend read more

Sushi is good. Very fresh and not expensive. It's a great take out place for a quick pick up on a week night. They have pre-made options right in the display case, just pay and go. However, the ramen was epically bad. They actually used SPAGHETTI noodles!!!!!! And the broth was greasy and flavorless. I didn't even eat it. When I got home I was super disappointed and hungry. I ended up having a power bar and going to bed. read more

First time visit. So many selections of Japanese and Korean cuisine. Truth be told, this place rivals Mitsuwa's Food Court, for me at least. K Pop is located INSIDE ZionMart at the Parkview Center (University & Michelson). I ordered the Pork Cutlet Curry Rice. They make it fresh so it took about 10-12 minutes to actually get my lunch. For $10, it was pretty good, so YAY, I'M a fan! The pork was deep fried just right where the juices were still there & the meat was not dry (reallllll easy to overcook pork katsu). The curry is not spicy, though you can request it, I like mine with taste, not spicy, so for me it was great curry. The corn, carrots, & potatoes were soft (not mushy) mixed in with the curry, then poured on top of the pork cutlet. The combination was delicious. I enjoyed this experience very much. Highly recommend trying this place if you are in the area needing a quick lunch. Happy Eating and Fight On! read more

I ordered the chicken ramen. It was instant ramen noodles inside a "chicken broth" that was nothing more than chicken flavored water and grease with a few vegetables and half a hard boiled egg on top. Absolutely disgusting. read more

Nice & friendly people. Clean & tasty food. I really got chills eating their cold soba noodle (Korean cold noodle "nang myun" style with soba). Icy cold broth - little spicy, little sour, & little sweet! Soba was cooked perfectly. Would be great thing for a HOT day~ Hubs ordered their seafood noodle. Big giant serving of spicy seafood base soup with noodles~ good heat and smoky flavors that he enjoyed very much. Even said that it is the best champong noodle in Irvine~ Portions are very generous. Offers combo specials and has a large menu. Great place for a quick meal! read more

Oh man what a wonderful bowl of seafood soup. This is their version of jjamppong. It's perfectly spicy if you want it spicy, and man, the broth was just so good. Not your usual mash up of chicken broth like the other food court places. This is the real deal. The California roll I got also tasted so fresh and delicious. It was surprisingly good considering it was food court food. I thought this might have been something I'd get at a sit down place. Definitely be back! And will try more things. Also -- the supermarket has now changed to Zion, it's no longer Farmer Direct. read more

I got sick after having a sashimi bowl, diarrhea for two days. She was nice, but the fish was not fresh.

I've ordered twice from here within the last month using GrubHub. The first time I ordered the sushi was AMAZING so delicious and fresh, today, the second time I've ordered, I got food poisoning. When I got the sushi it didn't look as fresh as it did last time and smelled a bit funky but I though I was just being me so I ate it anyways. I got the spider roll, rainbow roll and taco yaki. First I threw up the taco yaki, I though okay maybe I'm sick like stomach flu but then 10 min later I threw up the spider roll, how do I know what I threw up? By the colors. I just threw up for the third time in less than 30 min and decided I got food positioning. I gave them two starts because my first experience was great but my second experience was awful; I hope that the quality and freshness of the fish didn't lower due to COVID and making less orders. read more

One of our go to spots. Good sushi at a great price. As others have mentioned, this is a relatively small place inside Zion Mart with a walkup counter to order a few tables. The service is always friendly and fast. We usually do takeout and pickup some cold sake while in the market. Woohoo. Note* - The sushi quality is significantly better than grocery store sushi, but not exactly on par with a great (and much more expensive) sushi bar. The value/quality ratio is excellent. read more

Amazing naked salmon rolls and great service. Fast and friendly. Includes soup, too. I eat here many times a week.

This is the food court inside Farm Direct Market . Got California roll today and was very creamy and good . At $2.99, can't beat that. Lower star for the jajungmyeong, the sauce was too runny, was watery and need to thicken it up a little. Couldn't hardly keep sauce on the noodle. Also they put cabbage in their sauce which for me kinda ruined it. The portion was small, they just use a huge bowl. The price @$7.99 was kinda pricy for food court food . I mean you can get much better tasting jajungmyeong at a real restaurant for $1 less and the restaurant. The people work there was really nice though . The food court next to them that quit made this better hands down. The donkatau was not great either. $$$ with small portion @$8.99 . I may come to try something else . But won't be my go to place . read more

Tucked away in Zion Market, this place was such a nice surprise! Sashimi bowl had fresh fish, wasn't overdressed, and was generously portioned to say the least (1L Nalgene for reference). For $12, I don't think you can get better value. read more

Very delicious sushi, we ordered a lot of rolls for a family dinner and the amount we got for the price was amazing, it's inside Zion Market which makes it better to grab some soju and other snacks. read more

Initially came here to just get the fried chicken that they sell next to this place. The lady that was helping me recommended the chicken teriyaki. It was a lot of food for one person. They are really light on the teriyaki sauce which was perfect. Great place to eat while shopping for groceries. read more

Absolutely excellent food and selections. A bit pricey on some items for the amount of food but well worth the taste. Lots of good choices I recommend their spicy pork or any rolls and baked salmon. Usually good service and faster than some other sushi spots. Our fam loves it as do any business or work partners when we treat them for lunch / door dash gift cards, we always recommend this spot. Keep it up. read more

I ordered the Alaska Roll and Baked Salmon Roll through Postmates. The food was delicious and didn't take too long. 10/10 recommend

Quick, affordable, and delicious! I LOVE this little place located inside Zion market and often stop by for a quick meal of spicy squid over rice, ramen, or California rolls. Their portion sizes are great, particularly for the spicy squid over rice, which is also cooked to tender, chewy perfection (not tough or rubbery). The California rolls were yum, the dragon rolls were only ok, and the ramen and udon options are good. Overall, TRY THE SPICY SQUID!! Beyond the good food, the owner/employees are kind and I appreciate their excellent service! I will continue to come back. :) read more

I love the value and quality. Definitely not paying full price sitdown prices just to kick the craving for a few rolls, but soooo much better than the supermarket/gas station crap you'll find in Mr. Rodgers neighborhood. Just great and simple sushi and rolls for a quick meal. read more

We ordered curry, poke and sushi. Sushi was stale and bad. Fish had dried out, it probably had been sitting in the display case all day. Poke was good, because it was after we ordered it. Curry was average. Overall, an average experience. I don't think I'll come back. read more

This was the absolute worst sushi my husband & I have ever had. The sushi they make at Ralph's grocery store is better. This stuff tasted cheap. The California rolls tasted very fishy and not in a good way. The wasabi was a color green I'd never seen before. The rice tasted old. They didn't add the masago on my California roll like I requested. Overall, huge disappointment. I've never thrown away sushi in my life, but we couldn't even finish the rolls they were so bad.... do NOT waste your money here. read more

I've tried this placed many times and the lady is super nice and courteous. The price of sushi is reasonable and pretty good. Since the change of the market owner, this place put out some more variety of food items. I really like this place. read more

This place is located inside the food court area of Farm Direct supermarket. I came here to do some grocery shopping but I got hungry so I ordered the salmon lovers roll. *Menu: they have most of the basic Korean style sushi. There's just a board with a picture, price, and name with all the rolls. It made it easier to decide based on price and image. *Food: I ordered the salmon lovers roll to-go. It was about $6 which isn't bad for a random roll. I took it home since I ordered to-go. I'm guessing it was 25 minutes from pick up to the time I was able to eat it. Glad to say I did not get sick and the roll survived the car ride home. I thought the amount of fish and freshness of the fish was worth $6. You just order at the counter. No service was required but the cashier was a sweet little Korean lady who made sure I had enough soy sauce and chopsticks. I'm glad I took a gamble to try this place and now I know where I can get a quick and cheap sushi fix. read more

Great taste, pretty fresh, and great prices! I usually order sushi from Crazy Rockin Sushi on Alton. Last Sunday I wanted to order sushi lunch to go for my kid, but they weren't going to open until 12pm. With the help of Yelp, I discovered K Pop Sushi inside the Zion Market on University Drive. They were open at 11am. I ordered a rainbow roll and a dragon roll. Compared to Crazy Rockin, fish slices were bit smaller but not too bad! Dragon roll tasted almost the same as CR's. Considering the CR's price being about $4-5 more per roll, I loved it! I would order again. read more
