Clean, spacious, chill atmosphere. This place has authentic flavors without being overwhelming or hard to understand. The kimchi was fresh and mild, the ramen was just the right amount and the egg for the Dal Sot was perfection (if you know, you know). We wanted to eat in and were greeted right away. They play current hits Kpop and the walls are full of interesting mountain climbing maps and photos. I guess the owners must be or have been part of the Seoul Alpine Rescue team and also various other climbs. I will certainly be bringing all my friends here for the ambience and am so excited they seem to have Grubhub as delivery service! read more

Love this place. Awesome Korean fried chicken and kimchi. Such a cute little place. Great service and even though we generally get it to go, it is very cute inside. read more

Homestyle.Korean.Food. Did not expect to find this in PA. Surprise find and they even had my fave uhmuk bokum and jjanggachi banchan!!! If you are in the Camp Hill/Mechanicsburg area- GO immediately and enjoy this deliciousness. You're welcome. read more

I have read comments before about prices, and I would agree, it is a little expensive, but the quality of food you get is AMAZING! It's a small restaurant with a big flavor! We got the spicy soy garlic wings and the fried dumplings! And there is plenty of extra sauce to dip the wings in on the bottom of the dish. I didn't get much of a chance to speak with the owner, but all throughout the restaurant are pictures of him on climbs and there is a little area with all of his past equipment. I appreciate eating locally to spread wealth for the community! read more

You are missing out if you haven't tried this place. The fried chicken is to DIE for! However, the traditional dishes are really amazing, get adventurous and try some things you've never heard of. The soups and pancakes are all amazing. The owner is incredibly nice and helpful. This place is the definition of eating local, let's go Camp Hill, Mechanicsburg and Central PA as a whole!!!! Give this place a shot!!!! Something for everyone. The owner is an avid rock climber and has his gear and pictures near the front, so cool! read more

I have eaten a lot of Korean food throughout the years. I was disappointed by the Bulgogi because they added mushrooms as a lame filler. Bulgogi done right never has mushrooms! read more

Best Korean fried chicken in Harrisburg. They have so many great sauced for their chicken but my go to is spicey soy garlic. This is a regular take out place for me, and it is so easy to order online and pick up in store. read more

My husband and I finally got to check this place out last weekend. We dined in and loved everything about this place! Quality food, service and ambience was all on point. We ordered sweet/spicy wings, soy garlic wings, pickled radishes, fries and their strawberry snow dessert. All amaaaazing. Wings are huge, flavorful and cooked to perfection. Food came out fast too, which was a plus. We also ordered two meals to take home - kalbi and bulgogi. My husband enjoyed his kalbi and my bulgogi was okay but I'll plan to ask for it to be made spicy and more saucy next time. The snow dessert was so tasty! My husband is a picky eater abs didn't want any but I had no problem eating the entire thing despite being pretty full! Will be back ASAP. Highly recommend! read more

The Koop - Strawberry snow dessert - Korean Near Me - Camp Hill, Pennsylvania

I tried the spicy soy garlic with rice as my side. The Korean fried chicken was good. There's no competition in central pa yet so it tasted very good. The Korean fried chicken is almost as good as the places in Philly, but I do believe they refry whatever they made in batches and put their delicious sauces on it. The service was great, food came out in like 10 min, way faster than typical Korean fried chicken order which makes me believe they refry their frozen battered chicken. It doesn't mean it's bad or the quality went down. It was still excellent. I will be back to try their other dishes. read more

Their food is pretty good and tastes authentic. Love it! The fried chicken and beef bulgogi was so good!

Great little mom and pop Korean Restaurant from Daegu. Delicious food. We ate samgyup Sal and kimchi chi ge.

Great fried chicken. Lots of other good stuff on menu, always full of flavor but I'd come from A long way away to get their chicken

Wings are amazing, tasty and have a great flavor. Great price. Have had great quality for dine in and take out.

Went on a weekday and almost all the tables were full, place was being run by the owner and maybe his daughter? but it was only him and her working. They were so nice and hospitable. Place is full of the owners climbing and hiking gear, he used to do Alpine Mountain Rescue. I don't have lots of experience with Koren food, but as far as I could tell everything was really excellent. Best thing was just the sweet&spicy fried chicken. Go and be patient, its all worth the wait. People are going to complain that some things on the menu are sold out and some of the prices are "high". This is not a generic American Asian restaurant thats in every neighborhood. This is a Korean immigrant serving Korean food using quality fresh ingredients. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants. They are consistently great, and it's not the typical go to Chinese buffet. They're pricy, but I don't mind here because the food is so good. read more

The food was pretty good! Portion is generous, price is fair, there's really not much to err!

Amazing Korean fried chicken. One of the only ones in the Camp Hill area. The hangover ramen is nicely portioned and SPICY for those sensitive to spice. Absolutely delicious though!! read more

Absolutely terrible I placed an order for pick up and was told that it should be ready within 20 minutes. I was stuck waiting in the restaurant for an additional 20 minutes. When I got the food the box was very light but I assumed nothing of it. When I got home and finally opened it I noticed there was absolutely no sauce on it as well as minimal pieces of chicken. I got a whole bunch of fried batter instead of chicken. Absolutely terrible. read more

For the record, I'm giving The Koop a 2/5 because the description for a 2 is "Meh. I've experienced better." I'm hoping the restaurant is successful in the area, as Central PA needs more Korean-centric options! After having various versions of Korean fried chicken, including in South Korea, Bok a Bok in Seattle, and Bonchon (east coast), I was really excited to have a KFC restaurant in the local area! Actually, the chicken logo of The Koop is VERY similar to Bok a Bok's chicken logo....It's a unique decor insight, with climbing gear and National Park paraphernalia plastered all over the walls. Pretty neat, just not what I was expecting. When we got there, it was fairly empty but we also arrived around 5:30. Starting off, one thing the waitress didn't tell us was that they were out of the "whole" option (the first option on the menu) for the fried chicken until she came back later to take our order. It would have been nice to know that 1/4 options for the chicken wasn't available as soon as we arrived. With only wings/drumsticks/boneless options left, we ordered a small of the wings (8 pieces) and a bibimbap. The wings came out SURPRISINGLY fast, almost within 6(?) minutes, which wasn't a good sign. In my opinion, the defining hallmark of good Korean fried chicken is that it's CRUNCHY, typically because it's double-fried. So the fact that they came out before even the bibimbap wasn't a great sign. If you would have blindfolded me and gave me Koop's fried chicken and Kentucky Fried Chicken, I think the Kentucky Fried Chicken would have been crunchier. The spicy soy garlic had a good flavor, but overall was about a 3/10 on any spicy scale. By the time we finished our meal, the place was packed. So the local area must be receiving it really well, which is good to see! Overall, I wouldn't be opposed to going back but it might not be on the tip of my tongue when someone is looking for a recommendation for Korean Fried Chicken. I don't know if the restaurant double-fries their chicken (I'd have a hard time believing they do given that ours came out in 6 minutes), but that is where I would start. The Koop has a lot of potential to bring good KFC to the area, but for me, the chicken just fell short of other Korean fried chicken that I've had. read more

Bulgogi was delicious on the hot plate. Rice was crispy on the bottom and a little caramelized. My friend had the hangover ramen and loved it as well. read more

Yes... I do eat takeouts a lot! Went back there for the spicy trotters, can I say it's even better than the one I had in NYC K-town? It is now my favorite dish from the Koop. Looking forward to going back! read more

This a great addition to the area! We were very excited that another Korean restaurant opened after Spring Garden closed. Very friendly staff and amazing food! The dumplings were amazing! The sweet and spicy wings were well served and not very spicy. The Gangjeong chicken was crazy! It is a bit too spicy for us, but we worked through it because it was so good. You should ask Andy, the owner, about his pictures climbing all over the world and his license plate collection on display :) We definitely recommend it and will definitely be back soon! read more

I'm pretty happy with this place, the service was pretty good and quick. The chicken is a must try it's what's they're franchise are known for. While I was waiting for my order they bring out a complimentary crispy garlic chicken which is to die for. Looking forward for next time. If you had Bonchon wings before it definitely pretty similar.. read more

I've eaten a lot of korean fried chicken in my day but i've always had to drive far for it, so when i heard the koop had opened i was so excited. I've eaten here since it has opened and their food continues to get better and better each time i go. It rivals the restaurants in Philly, especially since the service is quick for the fried chicken dish (although it's worth the wait either way). Another plus is being greeted by the uncle on our way out i think he's very sweet. I will be a loyal customer since i consider this the best korean place in central PA! read more

We were on the road and was going to order take out. We knew we could order on-line but figured the business got charged extra for the use of it and decided to save them the cost and order over the phone. We knew what we wanted was a small order of chicken. Didn't realize that we also needed to know what kind. The site dose not mention it and we have never have been before. Instead of being nice when we didn't know what we wanted. She said she didn't have time for this and hung up on us. read more

Very happy to see a Korean Fried Chicken place in our area. Traveling to Korea every couple years and having eaten at JinMi Chicken in Suwon, Korea made me wish that something like this could be found in the area as this food is something that should be shared with the masses. Grateful that The Koop came to be. And, the chicken at The Koop did not disappoint! Maybe not as good as JinMi in Suwon, but still good! Maybe it was the fact that we had BEER with the chicken in Korea that made the difference. If The Koop gets a beer license, I'm sure they'll make a killing!!! As far as suggestions to make things a little better...and I hope the staff takes this as constructive criticism...I think there should be more interaction between the wait staff and the customers. Our table had no chopsticks, spoons or napkins. We had to get up and go to another table and grab those items and bring them to ours. We were not asked what drinks we would like other than given standard glasses of water (no ice) which were never refilled. I think the sides were a tad "lacking" for a traditional Korean restaurant. I think this is the first time I've ever had to pay for kimchi...or pay extra for a sauce for the chicken. But, great concept...and the food certainly was good!!! read more

Upfront a top highly recommended visit - the best Korean entrées and fried chicken you, the family and kids will have in Pennsylvania and likely across the northeast. Best to get there early to avoid lunch and dinner crowds. Meals are cooked to order and served fresh and hot. The owner Mr. Yeon Mook Choi greets everyone and ensures you have a pleasant experience. His restaurant is decorated with his lifelong experience as a Korean Mountain Rescuer and avid world traveler that he'll humbly share if you're interested. My family and I always enjoy our experience and trust that you will too. Give it a try and be sure to share to keep this small business around for all to continue to enjoy. Gamsahabnida! read more

They have amazing Korean bbq chicken here, and for a good price. However it seems to be that their State College location has a bigger menu than the Camp Hill location?? Because the Camp Hill menu didn't have everything the State College one did. Either way, really good read more

Pretty amazing food. I think management needs to pay the female waitress more money for her customer service skills. She was the only one waitressing and had to answer phone calls and act as a hostess while people walked into the restaurant. She seemed extremely overwhelmed and while we waited a while for my party to be seated and order, I was more concerned for her the entire time. She held it together and was very apologetic. Kudos to her for making the best of the situation. I had the Galbi which was really good and cooked to perfection. My bf had Chicken Fried Rice as they were out of the Teriyaki Chicken. My friends ordered the fried chicken which smelled and looked amazing. I would definitely come back. It does get busy and packed quick so there may be a wait. It's worth it! Give this place a try! read more

I think its safe to say this might be my new favorite place! I discovered Koop when it popped up in my Yelp recommendations, and have been wanting to try it ever since as it reminded me of a Korean restaurant I miss from living in DC. Sent the husband and kiddo out to pick up these delicious chicken wings and we are hooked! Although we do think our order was wrong (he ordered spicy and neither was spicy) it is completely fine because they were both out of this world delicious. As my husband and son were waiting for our takeout order, he said the owner was playing with my son and brought them a sample! He was so impressed and it's extremely difficult to impress my husband, so we will take the family back here soon. Looking forward to trying the spicy wings next time ;) among many other things on the menu! read more

The Koop - WINGS!!!! Amazing! Also the raddish is perfection. - Korean Near Me - Camp Hill, Pennsylvania

I was looking forward to Korean food and was a little disappointed that it wasn't more traditional. They did not serve the traditional banchan and kimchi was not even offered. I got the Bibimbap and was slightly disappointed they used hamburger instead of the traditional bulgogi for the meat. It did lack some flavor but was not bad, only okay. The chicken is their specialty so that may be something people come here for. The staff was very friendly and it appeared clean. So they only get an okay from me, but I have lived in Korean so my expectations may be higher than someone not overly familiar with traditional Korean cuisine. read more

I have no words for how amazing the food is here. My only advice (other than to try everything) is that if anything says it's "spicy" then it's REALLY spicy. So if you don't tolerate spicy things, avoid those items. The owner is super nice as well. read more

I would not recommend this place to anyone based of my experience. Good was so pricey comparing to the portion. We pay above $50 for two dish with such a little portion and two serving bowl was paper bowl. Not only that the guy who greeted us made us to sit on the table near the door with another such a crowded table with lots of stuff on it next to the garbage can, when asked him to give me another table he insisted us to sit there because it's near the kitchen and it will be near for him to serve us. We had to eat while near the garble can. Service was horrible with bad food.. waste of money. read more
