Sauce Bar
Tyler N.

Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 4.5/5 Overall: 3.2/5 I think this place has been suffering from some overall quality issues as of late, and I'm skeptical of ever going here again. Their grill heat, even at the maximum, didn't really do enough to actually grill the meats, rather it kind of just grayed the outsides. The broths here overall are a little bit disappointing, since they all seem watered down from when they originally opened. My main issue is their ordering system. Sometimes entire rounds of food that we've ordered haven't come, or sometimes it'll just be individual dishes. Also, I don't exactly agree with some of the portioning for things like the noodles or the vegetables, which is an issue I've experienced before, but these past few times it has gotten quite extreme (ex. ordering one order of spinach and crown daisy, and receiving one piece of spinach in a bowl and the rest is filled with crown daisy). I think, for the current price, some of the issues I have been experiencing are inexcusable and I would love to see some change before I consider coming back.

False advertising. For the 3 days before/after, it's 50% off, not free.
Sozon K.

False advertising. Nowhere does it say that "free" only applies to the actual day of your birthday, and that for the 3 days before/after, it's 50% off. They could've chosen to put it anywhere in this flyer, even the fine print, but chose not to, despite the fact that it's "always been policy". It should've been policy to honor the words that were written on the website. The aiyu jelly and potato salad were good. The self ordering from the tablet was cool, and the food came out pretty fast. However, meats were cut too thick. No standard brisket for lunch bbq. Soup and resulting meat from it were flavorless, and according to the other three people that all got the KPot Special flavored soup, it was very oily. Clams were full of sand.

The Restaurant

Everything. It was our first time trying a Korean BBQ & we loved it all. Our server was very friendly & was very helpful in providing details. And the restaurant vibe was great & inviting. We loved it all.

Birthday celebration

Jacob was a great server. The environment was a vibe and it was very clean. We always have a great time when we eat dinner here, it's a great experience 10/10

Well sauced and not overly so. Really delicious selections
Trung N.

Honestly a really great experience! I'm not entirely sure when this place opened up down here but its really clean. The entrance lights are a really cool touch despite how old the building is. My friend and I got seated immediately (right before dinner rush) and while we were allocated a new waiter to Kpot, a more experienced waiter came and made sure we were going to be well taken care of. Shout out to... man i shoulda asked how to spell her name but... it's pronounced "Ee-vian" I'll have to revisit and get her name right for justice The only item on the menu tonight that was missing were the scallops which was a bummer considering its at the beginning of dinner time. For how quickly busy it became, everything came out in super fast. There were staff near the sauce bar keeping it clean and organized, and the new waiter kept our grill new and replaced it frequently. One qualm is the sauce bar is quite wide to reach the back side to get stuff so i find my face literally up to the glass shield. Not necessarily enough to touch it but uncomfortably in my face. Tbh I was so hungry I forgot to take more pictures than just my food so I'ma have to redeem myself in the near future :P

Cousins, look at here if you want to eat good and cook your own food, you can still go to KPot. They'll have all the trimmings you need to make it just how you like it. Tonight was a celebration for my Sugar Bear. He is turning 50. we celebrated all weekend long and after we rested all day, we came here for dinner with the girls. We had a great time discovering and experiencing food that we've never eaten before such as snails, something that looks like a scallop, but it's not, I was digging in on the ribeye and the crab legs. The miso soup broth was amazing and I love that they kept bringing out the food once we requested it on the iPad. The bill was about $35 per person. The only thing I would add is the ability to have your own table space for all the extra dishes that you are not using once you start cooking the meats and proteins. We had a great time and there's been a running joke even though it's his birthday to have the restaurant sing to him. He just giggles like a little kid . Thank you and Paul our waitress for taking the time to make my bay feel so special.

Our server Annie!

I ordered the Nobi dog, Nobi egg sandwich, and the bittersweet sundae. I was initially hesitant to order the Nobi dog, but my doubts were immediately quelled with the first bite. The Nobi dog was a standout item with the perfect balance of flavors and textures. The savory Kosher beef frank is complimented by the sweet and salty chargrilled pork, pickled carrots and daikon, and spicy sriracha mayo and jalapenos. The crunchy pickled vegetables and creamy mayo stand out against the tender pork and beef frank. I would definitely reorder the Nobi dog at a future visit. Unfortunately, the Nobi egg sandwich was only mediocre and left and impression no more than the simply the sum of its parts. The chargrilled pork was flavorful and egg had a pleasant fluffy texture, but the sandwich as a whole tasted rather boring and uninteresting, especially compared to the Nobi dog. The bittersweet sundae was a stout brownie with vanilla gelato, covered in whipped cream and was the lowest point of this meal, and I would recommend against ordering it. In my opinion, there was entirely too much whipped cream, which was foamy and runny and had a metallic off-note, perhaps from the can it likely came from. After digging through the mountain of whipped cream, I was further disappointed by the texture of the brownie, which had an unpleasant eggy taste and texture. The vanilla gelato was only okay, and did little to salvage this disappointing dessert. Despite its shortcomings, Nobi's service was excellent and attentive. Even on a crowded Tuesday dinner, our waiter frequently checked in on our party. The restaurant is fairly spacious and can accommodate large (8+ people) parties, however it may be a challenge if you plan to visit on a Tuesday night. Overall I would return to Nobi's, specifically for the Nobi dog or the amazing $10 pork chop deal and to explore their wide selection of beers. Aside from that, I would be willing to try other items, but I definitely would not reorder the Nobi egg sandwich nor the bittersweet sundae.

I ordered the totoro coconut forest, mango slush(?), and the churro mochi donut to wait and it took maybe max 8 minutes from ordering. To be honest, I took a shot in the dark with the Totoro Coconut forest but wow it's very coconuty lol. It was layered with the matcha, blue powder mixed with coconut milk, and then sweetened coconut milk and the crystal boba. If anything, it reminded me of like the last bits of eating Vietnamese che thai minus the fruits. Very sweet. But refreshing! I can't say much about the mango slush or the donut because that was devoured by my boyfriend in seconds so I guess it's good since I wasn't able to try it at all haha. Rating: very cute and trendy! Would try to go again for the donuts

Okay so we are so back. If it wasn't obvious enough, I come here too often and just haven't updated…read moremy review. This place continues to be my family's top hot pot spot, even after going to many locations in the greater Houston area simply due to the soup bases being so incredibly strong and the selection of ingredients always being top notch. The only things I have food-wise about this place are the following: 1. I think the meat selection is often inconsistent. Sometimes I will order the number 3 and 4 and it'll be really good, and other times it will be hard to eat. 2. I think that the noodle selection is missing like a handmade and hand pulled noodle. The closest thing currently is the lo mein, which I really like, but I'm still wanting more options. 3. Often, the sauce stations will have some empty bottles on the side, which is often inconvenient since I tend to add most if not all to my sauce. Other than that, the service this time was much better and much more on top of it. I will most definitely head back here again and again. Like I said in the beginning, WE ARE SO BACK!

I did try all of the meats and it was a lot of food but every cut was great! Nice open restaurant with plenty of seating and arranged so you feel as if you have your own space. The only reason I dropped it by a star was that there was only one person waiting on a large portion of the guests. She really tried hard and this is not a knock on her. But even though it was a slow night she struggled to keep up at times. I would have given it 4.5 if I had the choice.

This counter-order joint is roomy, with a slew of arcade claw games lining the wall. I've been to Japan, and arcades such as this are a huge thing there, though they usually don't combine restaurants and arcade games. Perhaps they do in Korea? I digress though, because this is a fun, clean interior, and the service is polite and efficient. We had Korean Chicken Fried Rice, Shrimp Udon and an order of Spreggrolls. Everything was delicious, and there was seriously enough for another meal or two. The chicken was nicely cooked with a sweet/spicy sauce. Same for the shrimp. These guys also do an outstanding job with their rice, which is almost served al dente. The spreggrolls, which are a fusion of fried egg rolls and cold spring rolls, stole the show for me however. It's such a simple idea, yet no one (else) seems to have thought of it. These folks have a huge menu, and I look forward to making my way through it.
