    We went for AYCE lunch and our waiter explained that we can do both: ordering from the menu (those with orange dots are only available for dinner) or going around and picking up items (Korean pizza, japchae (very yummy), corn, corn dog (it was okay), candied yucca, twisted potato, fried dumplings, variety of soup, fruits, pickled vegetables). They also have a ramen bar, fridge of drinks with jellies, tea, and bing su (shaved ice). If you want soup, get a bowl, fill it up with rice cakes, noodles, veggies, seafood, dumplings, etc. Afterwards, tell your waiter/waitress which soup flavor you want. We tried the sweet original and my friend said it tastes more like Tabasco. I tried the coconut seafood and it was bland to me. Next time I'll try the other flavors. You also tell them which ice cream you want. You get 2 scoops. Overall, the price is pretty good for all the things you have available and will definitely be back for more.

    This is the best Korean buffet. It's similar to a hotel buffet, but it's actually a restaurant. They have soups, food on the bars, fish cakes on sticks, ramen, boba, rice, and teas. I really enjoyed trying different Korean dishes from the bars. I wouldn't mind coming here again, and I would recommend it for both small and large groups. Just make sure not to eat breakfast too early, as you can skip it and save room for the buffet. The service is excellent, and Harding works hard by himself. He serves and takes orders from the customers.

    Corn cheese! Slightly sweet and delicious

    WE. FINALLY. HAVE. KOREAN. FRIED. CHICKEN. IN. SUGAR LAND!!!!!! The real KFC has returned and I've been missing it since the beloved Bonchon closed. I love the galbi and soy garlic flavors!!! I'm also ecstatic that you can order it to go, along with other delicious set meals. For the dine in options the buffet is a solid deal! Something like $30ish per person, with all you can eat made to order dishes like tteokbokki pots and gimbop meat dishes. We tried the rose tteokbokki and it was quite yummy! You can go to the self serve area and choose all the fixings you want to go in the stew and they cook it for you in the back. I just wish they had some kind of hot plate at the tables to keep it warm. Another fav is the boba fridge. Because who doesn't love an all you can drink boba option. So many other options in the self serve area, some good, some not so good since some items don't do well sitting out buffet style (the fried things weren't very crispy anymore). But that's really the only gripe about this place. There's so much other foods to eat it's easy to just ignore the less appetizing stuff. The staff is super friendly and helpful as well! I highly recommend this spot and am so happy they have opened up in our town.

    I found this place trying to exit out of a shopping center and decided to try it. We came around 7pm on a weekday and we were seated immediately. The place is clean and parking is plentiful. I love the concept of the choose your own soup base but the noodle option was very limited. Nonetheless, I opted for the seafood broth with the ramen noodles and once you add your fixings to the bowl, you send the bowl off to the kitchen for them to cook it for you. The food is good and I love some of the menu options from the food bar. I would absolutely return as everything was nice!

    SUMMARY: Weekday lunch they seemed to be very understaffed. It looked like only two people were working. Buffet was missing many items, the fridge was missing many drinks. Wanted to try out because of the high rating, so we pushed through despite seeing how empty it was. Would not recommend. Service 4/5: Shout out to the two hard workers. I think the person that sat us down wasn't the host, he appeared to be a kitchen staff who acted as a host and server. I do not blame the workers at all since they had to juggle a lot of things. Food 3/5: Ordered the fried chicken, Tteokbokki, Seaweed pockets, corn cheese, sweet and sour pork, shrimp tempura, skewers, Gimbap, Ice cream. Food was pretty good when ordered, just out of stock for many things. - Fried chicken texture was nice and crispy. Sauce was decent. Honey cheese chicken could have used more honey. One chicken was potentially undercooked. - Tteokbokki was pretty good. Grabbed items from buffet to assemble. - Seaweed pockets were good. Ordered multiple times. - Corn cheese... informed us they didn't have it in stock. - Sweet and sour pork was pretty good. - Shrimp tempura was okay. Similar to Costco frozen shrimp tempura. - Skewers were good. Just took a while to get. Sadly they also didn't have chicken for chicken skewers as they were out of stock. - Gimbop was decent. - Green Tea ice cream... they also didn't have in stock. Only had vanilla. Ambiance 2/5: Was awkward because how empty it was. A lot of sitting and waiting because they were understaffed. Experience 1/5: Was extremely disappointed. Saw many videos online and reviews that showed things that weren't there. Out of stock for quite a few things. Would not recommend.

    Was pretty excited and curious about this new AYCE hotpot spot in Sugar Land. Went for lunch with a friend and upon arriving, we were greeted by a courteous and attentive server. The interior decorations are trendy and has a nice modern vibe. There is a pretty wide array of Korean-syle foods - pizza, soup, hotpot, instant noodles, desserts, teas, drinks, etc. Weekday lunch is $18.45 while weekend is $20.45. Kids under 3 eat free and under 10 is $9.99 (for lunch). You get 90 minutes to eat (although we went over and no one said anything, but it was also not very busy). Unfortunately, to me to food was OK. Certain things were tastier than others, but given the price and the fact that it's AYCE, it's definitely reasonable, at least for lunch. It's a fun, casual option in the SL area, which I think would be great if I was still in my teens or 20s.

    The most all you can eat Korean food options I've seen in the Houston area. Super clean, and love the variety of things. They even have boba and ice cream after you finish your meal. Super friendly service. Someone will be there a few seconds after a press of the call button Super clean place. Hope they keep it up. Will be back again soon

    Order the sweet pot and any made to order items! Pass on the buffet if you can. It's tempting but not as g Lunch includes bevs, AYCE dishes, sweet pot and a tea station.

    We arrived after the lunch crowd departed, and a good thing we did. The isles around the AYCE food trays were narrow, and there seemed to be no rhyme or reason to the items on the buffet: "gimbap" was next to "jap chae" across from "bulgogi pizza?" Our server had a heavy accent, so when asked, "WTF is this" he had to repeat himself several times before I had any inkling as to his answer. Really annoying since we only had about 40 minutes for lunch. I finally gave up and just filled the large bowl provided at the table with condiments; Something like a Mongolian Buffet, with a couple of important exceptions. This first was protein was ONLY seafood. The second was preparation. Instead of frying the bowl's contents, you pick a broth, and chef boils everything. WHICH broth to choose? There's 5-10 choices, but knowing nothing about Korean Broths, I just threw a dart, and it was OK. Very much like Hot Pot, which I avoid except when outdoor temps fall below 0F. This NEVER happens in Houston, TX where on this particular day Real Feel was above 100F. Not the restaurant's fault, and now I, and you, know what a Korean Buffet is all about, OK? Bring a towel.

    Ok if y'all haven't tried Sweet Pot K-Kitchen in Sugar Land and want to try Korean dishes, definitely come here for lunch ($20pp and $9 per kid -- sodas included). It's AYCE buffet & menu. Tteobokki hot pot, ramen bar, Korean cheese dogs, French fries bar, tea bar, boba drinks bar, Sul bing bar, rice waffle dessert bar, Korean wings, gimbap and japchae... cheese corn... bimibop bowls... we ate for 1.5 hrs waiting for the storm to pass through Service was great. The staff constantly checked on us, clearing our table and suggesting food items. You have to ask for the sul bing. You cannot walk out with your boba jelly drinks.

    Great place to eat with friends! The service is good, and the place isn't overly crowded. There's a lot to grab yourself, and there's other things to order off the menu as well. For your sweet pot, you gather the ingredients yourself, and then they will cook it for you. Personally, I liked the Ssam the first time we came, but they added honey mustard onto the wraps the second time, which I thought wasn't needed. My favorite things are the desserts here. The injeolmi rice cakes cooked with the waffle iron, bingsu, and boba are must tries!

    Bulgogi soup

    The buffet section was extremely disappointing. The selection seemed much smaller than before, and the food looked very dry, old, and barely replenished. Portions were tiny, and there was honestly nothing worth taking from the buffet. I ended up just standing there wondering what I was supposed to eat. The food coming from the kitchen was just as bad. Everything took an unusually long time, even though there were only three tables in the entire restaurant, including mine. The server even brought out a dish I never ordered. By the time anything arrived, I was already too full from waiting. And when the food finally came out, it was honestly shocking. Most of the dishes had absolutely no flavor. The only thing that was somewhat decent was the kimbap. I ordered tangsuyuk, and I genuinely have no idea what they served me -- it took over 30 minutes and didn't resemble what I ordered at all. I also brought ingredients from the buffet for tteokbokki and asked for a bulgogi-style flavor, but what I received was a watery, completely unseasoned dish that tasted like nothing. Overall, it was such a disappointing experience. The food was terrible, the wait was unbelievably long, and it felt like a complete waste of money. I honestly wish I had walked out before ordering drinks. I definitely won't be returning. In the end, the orders kept coming out late or not at all, so I couldn't even eat a proper meal. I only paid for my portion and left -- $22 for basically a few pieces of kimbap. It's unbelievable. If I had donated $22 somewhere instead, I wouldn't have felt nearly this frustrated. I walked out feeling like I literally paid $22 for nothing. I'm never coming back.

    Sofia C.

    Very happy with my first visit, I definitely see myself coming back just wish i had a bigger stomach Taro drink and cupbop are the highlight of my meal today.

He pointed at an order that had been sitting on a table the whole time we had been waiting and we were told THAT was our order.. The girl behind the counter literally threw up her hands and ran away. So disappointing. When we got home, we saw that one of our bbq dishes was missing. We called the restaurant and they said they were unable to credit the missing order. Instead, they took down our contact info and told us they would give us the dish next time we came into the restaurant. We do not have high hopes that will happen. Management may want to consider staff training as the restaurant was not busy and service was lacking which is a shame because the food is actually good. But it is very difficult to consider coming back even with my prepaid unfulfilled order waiting for me.

    This is probably one of our favorite Korean BBQ spots in Houston…read more It's all-you-can-eat and even includes sushi and sashimi. Personally, I haven't tried those because Korean BBQ and sushi together just feels a little odd to me. I grew up in LA where we usually went to separate places for each, but I'm sure plenty of people enjoy having both options. The meat quality is really good, and everything is well-seasoned and flavorful. My only complaint is the soups--they don't really taste like the traditional Korean soups they're supposed to be. They could definitely use some improvement. That said, other side dishes like the tteokbokki are actually really good. For the price, it's an excellent value. The service is usually good, although it can be a little inconsistent depending on your server. One thing I really like is that they include dessert, such as Korean ice cream bars, regular ice cream, and other sweet treats. We've been here several times already and definitely plan on coming back. There's also a huge parking lot, and the area has plenty of cafés and other places to visit afterward, which makes it a great spot for a meal and a day out.

That said, the consistency of both service and food quality between visits can be noticeable. Service can be very slow at times, even when the restaurant isn't particularly busy. We've had issues with banchan not being brought out, grills not being turned on, and fish orders taking nearly an hour to arrive. Food quality can also be hit or miss. For example, the Cheese Crab Puffs have occasionally arrived completely cold with barely any crispiness or color, and we've had similar issues with other appetizers. My favorites are the Garlic Salmon Sashimi, Black Angus Marinated Short Rib, Wagyu Beef Belly, Black Angus Rib Finger, and Thick Cut Pork Belly. I also enjoy the Takoyaki, Crispy Tuna Rice, and Tteokbokki. There are a few dishes I would skip, including the Spicy Scallop Sashimi and Nigiri unless you enjoy very small scallops, the Baked Green Mussels, which are overly sweet, and the Prime Beef Brisket, which I've found to be tough and dry. Overall, there are plenty of dishes I genuinely enjoy here, but the inconsistency keeps this from being a place I can wholeheartedly recommend. When everything is executed well, it's a great meal, but you never quite know what kind of experience you're going to get. That being said, I tend to get good ones the majority of the time.

The light took a little bit to get used to. I think we picked the bad spot because the fan above us had a light above the fan so it kind of got stroby. The breakfast plate is garlic rice, one meat, some tomato slices, and two eggs. (The breakfast plate is served all day.) If you have a friend, get two breakfast plates and a street food (3 sticks of one type of meat only). And share that. It's very filling. The pandan dessert was a refreshing after dish but I think it would taste better cold. (I'll ask for some ice next time to put on top of it.) Parking is free and out front. There is a lot of space. This place is in a new looking plaza with plenty of shops ready to rent out.

When you pickup your food, the sit down area is dark, and there isn't much of a waiting area. It looks to be run by two folks, the cook and the cashier. It is probably best to order over the app, as the one cashier is busy packing the food in the fancy packaging and dealing with the money transactions. Since it is only two people, it can be slow to get your food when it is busy. I waited an additional 20 mins from the projected time it was suppose to be done. As for the food, the miso ramen was packed in this fancy box. The box contained the soup separated from the noodles with a few side dishes. I believe this is the only vegi ramen they offer. It is nothing special. The broth is basically miso soup with soy sauce. (2 out of 5) The cold sesame noodles was better. It had more flavor. (4 out of 5) The Salt & Pepper Chicken was good (4.5 out of 5). I couldn't help eating it while in the car, as it smelled so good. The Braised Pork over rice was decent. It was cut up thick pork belly, braised in an Asian brown sauce. The flavoring was a little one sided. (3 out of 5).

I have passed by their restaurant many times, but it never occurred to me to go in until one day I was surprised to see them ranked in the top 100 ramen places nationally on Yelp! With less than 300 reviews, I was skeptical at first but was intrigued to give it a try, and I'm so glad that I did! I visited on a Friday afternoon right before New Year's and was greeted warmly by the staff inside. As I was indecisive on what to order in the ramen section, I asked the staff for suggestions. She was kind to walk me through the menu without rushing to get an order, and she mentioned that their most popular item is actually the beef noodles. That was all I needed to make a decision to try the beef noodles. While waiting for the food, I chatted with the staff and learned that the restaurant opened right before the pandemic then shifted their model to take-out only as the pandemic begin. Since then, they've tried to make use of their restaurant space to return to dine-in but it has been difficult to find reliable workers. In the interest of keeping the quality consistent and customers happy, they've decided to make sacrifices to keep the business model as is for take-out only instead of scaling up with additional staff, which is such a shame given the rent in the area is not cheap and they have such a beautiful space! When you hear "take-out only", I know what you're thinking, BUT I promise you this is the best takeout food you will ever have! The packaging is very well-designed to keep the flavors and ingredients at its finest! As I mentioned, I ordered the beef noodles, and typically noodle dishes are not ideal for takeout, but Asia Blue separates the soup from the noodles so that the noodles are not soggy, and even after half hour, the soup stayed warm and flavorful. The noodles also came paired with many mini side dishes as palate cleansers, which were a nice surprise. From my conversation with the staff, I've also learned that this is one of the rare places that truly make their broth fresh from premium ingredients! You can be sure that it's MSG free and packed with healthy nutrients, and that's a quality that you can taste. I highly recommend this place for your next ramen adventure, and I certainly will be returning again very soon to try the other menu items. :)
