    Seafood soft tofu stew and spicy pork bowl
    Liz B.

    A new gem selling authentic Korean takeout that feels like a home-cooked and healthy meal! I tried the seafood tofu soup, which came with a generous amount of seafood, including shrimp, mussels, and crab. The broth was flavorful and had a rich seafood flavor, and it wasn't overly salty like other tofu soup restaurants. It was also incredibly affordable compared to other spots, especially considering that it had so much seafood. The spicy pork bowl was also tasty, and I loved the addition of salad to make it a more refreshing and light meal. Next time I'd love to try the kimbap! I came near closing but the staff was very friendly and welcomed me in. The interior has a few tables and counters where the food is displayed. They are still in the grand opening phase, so I'd imagine things are still constantly evolving. I would definitely recommend supporting this business.

    Japchae with beef was so good! Noodles were perfect and bouncy!

    Great new spot to grab some healthy and delicious Korean dishes to go! Arrived an hour before closing and most items were already sold out -- a good sign! Loved the japchae and gimbap. You can taste the quality of meats and vegetables. They also sell Korean drinks, side dishes and desserts. Will definitely come back when in the area and grab some before heading to the beach. So convenient!

    So I debated on rating this spot or not... it's not really a restaurant but more of a to-go prepared food pick-up spot. There isn't any place to eat inside unless they let you eat at the counter (which I have no idea) Super clean and nice inside. The staff was amazingly kind, but being the only person in there they didn't really explain the concept or what they had to you. I'm not sure if the food was excellent, average or poor because I just took a try at a box of food. Some of it tastes good, other parts not so good but it may because of my preference and not because of their preparation. If you know this style of food you may love it, but I would have no idea how it compares. Just wanted to give an honest review. We really like the vegetable preparation and sauce. Other than that! You are on your own for picking. My suggestion to the staff would be to have a conversation with someone and try to point them towards something that seems like a match. I guess in the end this is as much a negative review of my own ability to rate this food. Give it a try... you may absolutely love it!

    Soybean soup and burdock kimbap
    Hannah K.

    Seoul Eatery is a quick food spot with authentic korean banchan, soups, and kimbap. I got a few items to share with my husband at home and everything tasted fresh and delicious! I loved the burdock kimbap. The soybean soup had ample beef brisket and lots of veggies! The interior is clean and modern and all of the items are well organized. I regret not buying more items while I was there.

    Food was delicious! It was made fresh and hot to our order and was delivered very quickly. All the staff in the shop were extremely kind and welcoming, and the interior of the shop itself was very crisp and clean. A wide variety of food was available at extremely good prices especially considering the quality! Will definitely come again!

    I've been to many tofu houses, and Kaju is by far one of my family's favs & go-tos!…read more Located in Heritage plaza on the corner of Culver Dr. & Walnut Ave, to the right of CVS/Pharmacy, Kaju has been an Irvine staple for as long as I can remember. It's changed ownership since I first discovered it, and now has a more modern, tech-forward dining experience. You order tableside from a kiosk (with pictures!), and they even have robot servers. Service is efficient and always attentive. The restaurant is always bustlin' and loud, but nothing out of the norms for a Korean restaurant. My fam loves the Kaju special combos ~ esp. the galbi (short-ribs) + small tofu soup. My go-to is always the pork kimchi tofu soup (+/- beef dumplings..depending on my mood & hunger level for the day lol). Their galbi meat is marinated to perfection--sizzling hot, juicy & flavorful every time. Their tofu soups are comforting on a cold day and filling enough to be a meal on their own. Always opt for the fresh egg, to crack into the piping-hot soup and let it cook right in the pot.It's the perfect protein addition! My hubs always enjoys the spicy cold noodles. It's YUMS! If you haven't tried Kaju Soft Tofu already, this RxFoodie highly recommends it! It'll surely become a regular in your foodie rotation.

    Unfortunately i had a bad experience when i dined here on Sunday…read more I have been to this restaurant for a while because I like their galbi, tofu soup and cold noodles. When i came on Sunday, i was the first party to be inside and to order and somehow, the table next to me got the food first. I ordered 2 galbi and they only gave me 1, i had to ask them after waiting for a while and looked like they forgot about my order. Plus, 1 of the galbi came out good, the second one (late one) came out all burned and portion was smaller. I tried to eat but it was not good, i did not eat the whole thing because of how bad it was. The lady asked if everything ok, i told her no and told her the problem. She offered to redo but it was too late, me and my mom already finished the other galbi and no longer in the mood, then I asked for the check, she offered $5 coupon and I told her i refused to get the coupon because it does not make sense that she charged me for a full price meal with the old burned quality. I did not take photo because i was pretty upset and just want to pay and leave and be done with this (i paid for full price) This is pretty disappointing as this used to be my fave place
