My kids and I spent the afternoon together at the Japanese festival and decided this what they wanted to eat afterwards. Its a mixed menu, Korean and Mediterranean food..Interesting menu and flavors. I saw alotta snacks and desserts as well. I had the pineapple cake. It was moist n flavorful. I think the kichi fried rice was freaking delicious. I also had a bite of everyone's sandwiches. I dont know the names. But it was an enjoyable experience and I will return. I definitely recommend giving it a whirl.. read more

Best lunch spot in Midtown. Their food is outstanding and is affordable. They're super quick and friendly and the food is consistently amazing. Another place the locals come. The inside is like a deli counter with tables in the open. read more

I've been wanting to try the famous kimchi burrito, and it did not disappoint! It was absolutely delicious. If you're in the area, I highly recommend giving it a try. There are plenty of other options on the menu if kimchi isn't your thing--I got mine with beef, and it was fantastic. They also sell mochi and other desserts. The restaurant is inside a small convenience store with tables for dining. It was busy when I visited, and I noticed several people ordering the noodles, which smelled amazing. I can't wait to go back and try more dishes! read more

Hole in the wall place that's a hidden gem. Great food and super cheap!!!! Food is always fast and fresh.

Ehhh... I admit it. I don't get the hype of this place. We waited a pretty long time for our sandwiches. We got the ninja and the pork roast hoagies... The quality of the meats weren't great. The sandwiches were just OK. Like I said... don't get the hype. read more

It's just so good. Every time. We usually call ahead but eat there to make it a little faster. Everything else is awesome too, I just can't stop getting the soup! read more

Awesome sandwiches and you ca not beat the prices. Call ahead to place your order as the wait can be a little long if you order at the counter. read more

I mean, it's no fancy palace, but if you are looking to shove something delicious in yo face, you've come to the right place. The Bi Bim Bap was tasty and well prepared, and the Kimchi burrito...hello?!? Kimchi burrito! This needs to be in the world. It'll burn ya, but you won't care, because the flavor slaps! In Memphis? Go here. read more

Love this place! Been going there for over a decade, and it's only gotten better. Unfussy, low-frills, with kick-ass food in a convenience store setting. Can't go wrong with a gyro, the Memphis, the Bi Bim Bop--anything, really. (And of course, the baklava.) Grab a tall boy and a copy of The Memphis Flyer while you wait for your order. read more

Most delicious veggie pita and it's truly quick. We prefer to pick it up because when it's delivered it's too soggy. It's worth driving there though. read more

I love sandwiches and this definitely satisfies my cravings. Staff here is so nice and food comes out quickly. They also have Korean snacks, drinks, and food options which is good for those who want to venture into trying new food. It's a great place to grab some lunch or a snack. It's close to overton square so after you grab some food you can walk over to Berkshire or Sweet Noshings for some dessert! read more

This is a true hidden gem! It looks like a gas station, but they are serving delicious Mediterranean and Korean food. I recommend bringing a friend so you can give them a wonderful surprise. read more

This is my go to quick eat stop in mid town if you like bibimbap or a gyro or muffuletta. They are a simple order at the counter almost deli style setup and it is fast and the staff are very friendly. My go to lunch is a sandwich and they are all good and my go to dinner is either their bibimbap or burger! read more

Its been a long time Kwik Chek but your food continues to not disappoint in the least. Its been almost 20 years since, and I dont remember there being Korean food? (I could be wrong) Anyway wife had a falafel plate which was decent. Good falafel (could be better seasoned!) nice chewy texture and not oily or tasting like the fryer, baba ganoush and tzatziki like sauce were about the equal. Came with nicely toasted and seasoned greek style pita cut into corners. I got the "kabab" with chicken, which in my hungry state figured for the mediterranean thing (despite the spelling and like a big dummy) and not the spicy, mushroom and onions stir fried Korean thing that came out. THAT was great! Better than the falafel plate, absolutely would have again. It came on a small skillet, like fajitas might be served on, and obviously had been finished in an oven, giving the rice a chewier than average texture, really really liked this dish and glad I stumbled into it!. I do have to say though, this whole experience is minus one star for the mildly shitty flatlander treatment we got when ordering. Definitely had to "negotiate" a little and not return attitude with attitude, the lady taking our order really seemed to do so reluctantly. Anyway, crappy service is crappy service but I'll always return for something way better than average to eat, and a unique place. read more

I recently started working one day a week in Memphis and this is my favorite place. Everything I have had was delish -- sandwiches, Korean dishes, deviled eggs -- and love the wide range of the menu. Can't wait to try nearly everything on the menu. read more

DELIcious!! never would have thought to mix mediterranean and korean food, but it works heavenly so. could eat those veggie dumplings for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks too. the veggie pita sandwich was really good, the habanero sauce gave it the perfect kick.

An authentic mom & pop restaurant run by mom, grandma and granddaughter, or at least that's what it appears. The Korean/Middle-Eastern menu combination is very surprising, but both the Bibimbap and Gyro were well executed. The atmosphere is very simple and down to earth, but cozy and welcoming, the food tasty, I definitely recommend this place. read more

I was pretty impressed with this place. It looks dinky but it serves pretty good food. I got a gyro and it was a standard gyro. They also had a type of salad that I can't remember the name of. But I would definitely come back and try some of their other options. To Try: Korean BBQ Burger Bi Bim Bop Kimchi Fried Rice Liked: - Gyro Ok: - Gogijeon (meatballs) - Mandu Beef read more

Super yummy food in a random spot. When we pulled up it wasn't what we expected. But give it a shot because the food is great!

Yo so I walk in the spot. I usually hit the gyro if I'm on the go or do up the Bippity-Bop if I'm dining in. But on this occasion I wasn't sure what route to take. So the homie across the counter asks me what I want to order and I'm just like,"you tell me. I can't decide if I want the Gyro, Kimchi Wrap or try the Kabob." He's like,"damn, that is a tough choice!" I say,"yo that's why I'm putting this on you, chef." He looks down. I know he's stressing. This is a hard decision. I said, "I'm sorry man. I know this is difficult. Try being in this mind. It's like John Malkovich all day." He realizes the gravity of the situation. He stutters and asks, "do you want beef, chicken or tofu in the burrito?" I say, "Man I still don't know. WAIT! NO TOFU!" He's like,"I got you, Son. Chicken it is!" I'm all, "Word. I couldn't have done this without you. Namaste ". I had to wait a few minutes because the spot was poppin'. My order was to go, but a woman mistakenly brought a dine-in Kimchi Burrito, already plated, my way. I nodded my head as she called out the order - but at the same instant a woman happily raised her hand at a dine-in table. For a millisecond I considered taking the dish and dinning in rather than waiting 2 more second for my to-go order. Within that millisecond the consciousness of the universe beheld itself to me and I recognized I'd be carrying that karmic debt for at least 3 days (possible 3 lifetimes ) if I chose to eat the dine in burrito. So I pointed to the table and said, "that must be hers. I got a to-go order." The archangel Gabriel nodded to me and flew off. That woman looked so relieved and happy to be given the plate. Moments later my chicken kimchi burrito arrived. I paid for the item. They put it in a cute to-go bag. I brought that shit home and crushed it. Now all I got left is this empty rolled up paper and a full stomach. Damn that was a good meal and a very exciting evening. Will be returning again. I wonder what I'll eat next time. read more

At first, I thought it is a restaurant. But when I got there, it's more like a food court inside a small convenient store. I ordered Bibimbap, which is very decent and plain. Not having enough sauce and not having options for non-spicy eater. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Writing this as I'm eating because this place totally lives up to the hype. I'm so glad we finally got to try it. We placed our order on grubhub and picked it up 20 min later. We got the bi bim bop, kimchi fried rice, beef dumpling mandus and the falafel plate. Everything was amazing. The fried rice was so flavorful with a kick, which I love. The falafel plate is delicious. The mandus are amazing - tasty, juicy, plump full. I mean everything was fresh, so much flavor. This will be a new frequent stop for us!!! Did I mention they have AN AMAZING RANGE OF DESSERTS? Key lime pie, blueberry cheesecake, snickers cheese cake, and several different cakes. I can't wait to go back! read more

Best Korean food in Memphis! The kimchi fried rice was absolutely delicious. I've been to Seoul before and the fried rice was comparable. The dumplings were also nice and thick. They were fried perfectly. This is a great spot for take out orders during this quarantine. I highly recommend it! read more

Husband and I stopped by on our road trip after seeing so many mentions through top blogs and the reviews on yelp. We were excited to find a go-to Hole in the wall when passing through Memphis. We ordered the bibimbap and the Memphis sandwich and while the food was tasty, the surrounding area is pretty rough and can be quite surprising if you are not accustomed to that. Overall, would recommend if your feeling up for adventure but not if you're just passing through the city. Husband, "could've just stopped at Cains". read more

$25 for a 6 inch sandwich and a tofu bi bim bop. That seems excessive. I called in the order and picked it up so there was no 3rd party service charge they had to pay. What gives? read more

This place is truly unique! It combines subs and hoagies, Greek, and Korean food all with the convenience store items you may desire. They offer some Korean snack and menu items, and the owners are a Korean family! You order at the counter, collect your order when called, then check out by the door. I ordered 'The Turk' hoagie, and it was one of the best sandwiches I've had in Memphis! The bread was fresh and had a nice crust on it. From the fridge, I grabbed some pasta salad and baklava. The pasta salad was pretty good with sun-dried tomatoes, onions, and Italian herbs. The baklava was alright, and I don't know if I'd get it again. Next time I stop by, I hope to try the Korean menu options. Definitely worth a try! read more

Kwik Chek - Kimchi Fried Rice - Mediterranean Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Ji you are awesome!!! Thank you and your family for all your hard work and dedication. I'm on vacation so won't be a regular but I will definitely be back before we leave. The best gyro meat I've had outside of Chicago. No contest. Obviously right off the spit and cooked to crispy yet juicy perfection. I have been eating homemade gyros since the 70's, growing up in an Assyrian neighborhood on the northwest side of Chicago. I later spent over 20 years in the Chicago F&B industry professionally and was even a serviceable chef in a past life. I hate social media and have no idea what a foodie is, so Ji this is just for you. Also might be the best piece of baklava I've ever had. Wow! read more

What's great about Kwik Chek: - this is a true small operation: you can see the ajummas (older women) behind the counter making dumplings right in front of you, and everything (for the take-out counter at Kwik Chek and for the noodle restaurant next door) is made in front of you. - the food is good and vegetarian (probably vegan, though I tend to "don't ask don't tell" in situations like this) friendly. they have an eclectic menu: American and Greek style sandwiches (both meat and veg), and some traditional Korean dishes. We tried fried veggie dumplings (good!), pajeon (green onion pancake - which was great) and an order of tofu bibimbop (delicious). What's no so great: - the parking lot is a disaster: it was small and totally full, with some cars just waiting in spots that weren't actual parking spots. As a tourist, I wasn't sure if there was street parking nearby. - it took *forever* to get my order: I should have called ahead. When I ordered at the counter, I asked for an estimate, and was told maybe 15 minutes. It was more like 40 minutes! - there's a market that sells a few snack items and beer. I bought a couple of beers; no prices were marked, and they were a lot more expensive than I expected! 3.5 stars rounded up cause it's a clearly a family-owned business read more
