    Combo plate
    Brian G.

    I saw the reviews for this place and was surprised since it's a mall court spot that looks like a Korean panda express. You can get a plate with a couple items choices. They have noodles and fries rice, plus options for stir fries and Korean style fried chicken. Plus the food is halal! I like that they offer samples for you to try. I would say the food tastes good but on par with your typical food court Asian food. Good amount of food for the price.

    Mind you I was with my two year old son and she did this all over me asking if they had black pepper... disgusting!

    Mind you, this happened while I was with my two-year-old child. It was extremely upsetting to witness this kind of behavior from an employee in a public setting--especially in a place where families spend their money, children are present, and staff are expected to maintain professionalism. The conduct displayed was completely inappropriate and unacceptable for a workplace. I find it disappointing that management allows this type of behavior while someone is on the clock and representing their business. I would not spend a dime at any establishment that permits such unprofessional actions. Businesses should uphold standards that make all customers--especially families with young children--feel comfortable and respected.

    Okay, so five stars may be a bit of a stretch, but not because of food quality or taste, and not because of customer service; no, it's only a stretch due to the setting. Seoul Express is located in the Arden Fair Mall food court. So because of the general ambiance, I can understand why some folks would rate it below five stars. I had to rate five, though, based on the awesome customer service, the friendly and helpful demeanor of the team, and because the food tastes really good! I don't make it out this way very often, but when I'm in the area I plan to return!

    Teriyaki chicken and kung pao chicken

    I've been here before and returned for the great service and tasty food. Rachael the owner/manager is always there and it feels like I'm becoming a regular customer. Today I got noodles with kung pao and teriyaki chicken. Will be back for sure.

    I was standing in the Charlie's line but it took so long I decided to try this new Korean Spot. Food for my husband, he wanted the short ribs... Just by looking at it, it didn't look to appealing- got it anyway. Now my family are all cooks, including myself and when we BBQ or cook short ribs it's soaked in marinade and grilled to perfection. This here was NOT at all anything close. Plain and disappointing. It was a new establishment so we wanted to give it shot. But this is why we stick to what we know because when we tend to go out and try different things it's a hit or miss.

    Korean Waffle Fish with red bean
    Michelle D.

    Nothing beats eating local! Seoul Express is the only mom-pop shop at Arden serving what taste likes home cooked meals & exceptional customer service. They also have the cheapest and most freshest boba at the mall AND they serve taiyaki Just like my boyfriend and I, you and the family wont regret eating here.

    Order includes 5 total of these mini fishes but kids took 2 b4 I could get a photo.

    Review is for fish waffles. I already purchased food elsewhere but saw that they sold fish waffles here! Similar to somi somi but they only have two flavors. Custard and red bean. I purchased the 5 mini fishes for $5.99. The other option was 2 original size for $5.99. Filling was good. Powder sugar was dusted on top and the option of chocolate sauce on top. I opted out of it since I was bringing it home for my kids. Overall super cute and yummy.

    A solid place for wings that gets a steady stream of patrons even on a weekday evening. This place…read moreis very centrally located and has really good deals. $0.85/boneless wing on Tuesday and $0.95/bone-in wing on Wednesday. We did the Wednesday deal and it affords you one flavor and a sauce per ten wings. We ordered the garlic parmesan with blue cheese and the peanut butter with ranch. Both wing flavors were very strong but not overpowering. We really enjoyed the fries as well. Perfectly crispy, if but a bit oily. The staff were very patient and understanding and we hemmed and hawed over our order. The food came out fairly quickly and we enjoyed it in the dining area. There are TVs around playing the latest sports ball games and there are a variety of seats - bar seating, high tops, and lower tables.

    Oh how the greats fall…read more About 10 years ago, when Fire Wings started popping up, it was legit one of the best wing spots around. Unfortunately, its time at the top was short lived. Year after year the quality and service declined, and eventually I stopped going. I rarely order delivery, but wings sounded good and Fire Wings is the closest to me, so I gave it another shot for old times sake. I have dined in at the midtown location before and it's fine, fast casual and usually busy late night. Today, I ordered the 10 wing combo with plain fries. Hot take, but I've never liked their seasoned fries. They always feel overcooked and oily to me. I got mango habanero and lemon pepper, added five extra fire wings, and an extra ranch. The total would've been $38, but I had a $10 off coupon, so it came out to $28 before tip. Still expensive, but that's delivery pricing these days, not really the restaurant's fault. What is their fault is the size of these wings. Look at the photos, they were like toothpicks. I used to love Fire Wings because they served good quality wings with a lot meat on them. These had to have had less than an ounce of meat each. And it wasn't just a few of them, like 80% of the order was undersized. I honestly feel like they might have set aside a bunch of small wings for delivery orders, because the last time I dined in they were not this ridiculously small. The fries were whatever, basically standard frozen fries. I do remember that they used to give a ton of seasoned fries back in the day, but it looks like they also skimp on fries as well these days. The ranch was just okay, nothing special. The mango habanero was solid, one of my favorite wing flavors. Lemon pepper was just okay. And the fire flavor, which is supposed to be spicier than regular buffalo, tasted exactly like regular buffalo. This will be the last time I give Fire Wings my business. I have to accept they just aren't what they used to be. At this point I'd honestly take Wingstop over them for bigger wings and better sides. It's a shame, because the one thing Fire Wings always had going for them was their range of flavors.

My biggest blunder while ordering was not understanding the "Chicken Tender Sando Combo" item, I thought it was a combo with a sando and tenders. But instead it's a combo made of a sandwich composed of a chicken tender. It was still delicious though. We ordered a Chicken Tender Sando and some extra Tenders to share. I got the mild because at hot chicken places mild is more like an actual hot anywhere else, but it was exactly what I was craving- very good crunch, moist, and spicy. The tenders themselves were just as good, and the house sauce was super good as well, went perfectly with the spicy chicken- it was less mayoey than roosters, but not in a bad way, it may have been thicker too. Lastly the fries, they had an amazing crunch, definitely some of the best fries in the Sac area, super super crispy and seasoned super well to go with the sauce. Definitely give this place a shot if you're craving fried chicken, or even just some good fries. We will be back at some point, probably for another Sac concert.
