We catered Korean food with Uhmamama and loved it! We got a large pan of japchae ($100), large bulgogi ($150), large chicken ($150), and 2 sets of veggie kimbap ($130). We loved that the japchae had oyster mushrooms and wood ear mushrooms, and that the kimbap had eggs and a ton of fillings so that there wasn't much rice. read more

To go bowls! Have seen this place several times and was curious as to what it was. It is to go Korean bowls that are very affordable and filling. This is the place you go to before work to grab a bite, it was a very quick friendly service and super tasty! This is a takeout place, you cannot sit and eat here but honestly you don't have to sit in the place to enjoy since the food speaks for itself' Located in a plaza, it's a little hidden but if you look it up you'll easily find it!

I was looking for a Korean catering place and came across Uhmamama. The name of the restaurant translated in English means "Mother" in royal terms. That being said, the dishes that I ordered did indeed taste like a mother's homemade cooking. I ordered three types of Korean pancakes (fish, Korean meatballs, and pumpkin), stir-fried glass noodles (japchae), beef bulgogi, small order of kimchi, and cold crabmeat salad. What I really appreciated about this catering place was that I informed the ajuma (owner) how many people the food was for, and she was able to help create a reasonable budget for me. When I went to pick up the order, the ajuma helped load the trays of food into the car, which was very sweet and kind of her. I see that they sell lunch bento boxes, kimbap, and spicy rice cake (ddukbokki), fried chicken, and different types of tempura/deep-fried items so I'm looking forward to coming back to try those! read more

The food was fresh and delicious! We had the kimbap, burdock, perilla, etc. The Korean fried chicken was yummy! Friendly service. We'll be back! read more

I've done catering orders for Kimbap from Uhmamama twice now and they are always a hit. Super easy to order by DM-ing them on IG. Pricing is very reasonable for the portion sizes. My orders are always ready on time. They also have so many side dishes to choose from - the sweet burdock chips are a new favorite of mine! read more

Such a great place to get banchan. They also sell bento boxes, ddeokbokki, kimbap, soup, glazed fried chicken, etc. They change the menu for the bento boxes everyday, so it's always a nice surprise and you don't get bored even visiting multiple times a week. The two times I've gotten them, they were really good. The ladies are really sweet and friendly. The space is small and more of a takeout place. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch and grabbed a Pork Bulgogi Bowl, a Beef Bulgogi Bowl, and a Beef Bulgogi Kimbap. There was a wide selection of bowls and Kimbap that you could pick up ready to eat. There's no space for eating inside so we took our food to go. The staff was friendly and offered to answer any questions we may have had. Would recommend dropping by for a quick lunch or dinner bowl. The food was delicious and was very filling. The bowls were $10.50 and the Kimbap was $8-neither of which were very expensive. read more

Their food tastes fresh, good and is priced correctly relative to quality and portion size. One issue, however, is they run out of things quickly and too early in the day. If you can get here before early afternoon or especially in the morning you'll probably get the best selection. I've tried prepared meals like the bentos and also a few flavors of the kimbap and the quality is there. I also like how they use clean, simple ingredients and there are plenty of vegetables in the prepared foods and meals. Service is good and even though some workers speak limited English they do their best. I prefer their kimbap to similar restaurants in the area. read more

An unassuming, strip mall korean joint serving hand held, picnic classics like kimbap, tteokbokki of various varieties + protein options. It's in a competitive location, as there are some excellent, comparable joints in the greater BP area. However, even with this in mind, the $ to quality ratio here is superb, like a satisfying sleeve of delicious kimbap for around 7 bucks good. This place is a no brainer for an anytime, cheap yet delicious korean food. 5 stars. read more

I saw it twice and I was like "dam, it's a sign." and this place had like a $1 Ttekobkiii and it was FIRE i'm talking about FIRE WITH THE FOOD AND THE PLACE. Just look at the picture below. I ran out of storage so please ignore the right lower icon. My camera roll is filled with like 1000k pictures of my girlfriend and she won't let me delete them. I apologize brothers for the blurry picture but THE FOOD IS FIRE 10/10 for the $1 ttekobiik!! it fills you up so good if you like spicy, you came to the right place!! that spice got me siZzzling 10/10 for the portion! they have really good combo deals! 10/10 for the customer service it's a little small inside with a couple of seats read more

New banchan place in BP! All the side dishes are fresh and clean quality. Very decently priced and perfect portions to try variety. They have different kinds of kimbaps and korean lunchboxes that are made fresh each day. Also, the pumpkin shikhye is my new obsession here. Will definitely come back as a regular now. read more

My sister & I saw the $1 deal (goes until end of March) for the Mama's TBK in a cup on TikTok. It was very good and had a lot inside especially for the size of the cup! It had rice cakes, corn, fish cakes, sausages, green onion, and kimchi cabbage. We both really liked the sauce because of the strong kimchi flavor & it wasn't too sweet like most tteokbokki sauces. The ugly sticks/mozzarella sticks (4 pieces for $7) were decent, but also a bit small for the price. They taste good dipped into the tteokbokki sauce! The cashier was super nice and checked in on us to see if we needed anything else while we were dining in :) Definitely would come back in the future! read more

Saw that there was a soft opening for this spot and decided to give it a try! They have $1 tteokbokki until the end of March, so we ordered two Mama's TBK and bulgogi fries. I got my tteokbokki with normal spice and it did not overwhelm the flavors of the add ins. The portion is generous for ONE DOLLAR! It comes with rice cake, fish cake, sausage, cabbage, cheese and corn on top. Normally I do not order tteokbokki at restaurants because it is a simple dish to make at home, but this place makes theirs so yummy! The bulgogi fries were $17.50 and were just okay. They are generous with the toppings but I found it to be a bit underwhelming for the price. The shop is small and it is more of a take-out spot than dine-in. The cashier was very sweet and offered drinks on the house. Overall I definitely recommend giving this spot a try if you love Korean street food! read more

UHMAMAMA is an absolute game-changer for Korean street food lovers! I was blown away by the tteokbokki!!!!! EVEN though I usually shy away from spice, I couldn't get enough. It's the perfect mix of sweet, savory, and just the right kick. And don't even get me started on the portions -- they're HUGE. H U G E. Seriously, you'll be stuffed and still craving more.

5 stars for the exceptional hospitality and delicious food! I came in a little past 2pm on a Saturday not knowing they close earlier than usual.. The nice lady already had the door locked but saw me walking up and still opened the door for me. They only had a few things left over but she happily explained what each item was. She even threw in a free pack of gobo for me. I had no idea what it was but she gave me a sample and it was delicious! I look forward to coming back and trying more dishes! The little kimbap rolls and gobo were the star of the show for me! Im so glad I discovered something new. read more

I have been here before in the month of February that I have came across on instagram reels and came to try their food. I really enjoy the rice cakes, it is actually more spicy than normal than other rice cakes I've tried so far so I would suggest the mild spice. Got the $1 tteokbokki rice cakes. So good!! read more

Food was great and the woman at the front extremely gracious and friendly!! Everything I tried was amazing!

We found this place on both on Yelp and TikTok as we were last minute scrambling to figure out catering for our daughter's birthday. They were able to take our order one week out and their service and food (and price) were top tier!! They were super accommodating, kind, and generous with their portions. Everything was ready on time for pick up even though it was a big order (food for 40-50 ppl). The lady was so nice and we got soo many compliments on how delicious the food was from our guests. Thank you Uhmamama!! read more

i went to grab just a banchan but i ended up getting beef kimbap and a banchan too (stir fried fish cake). while i grabbed the kimbap these two ladies im assuming the owners, greeted me and wanted me to try a sample. i tried picking it up with a fork but struggled but one of the ladies helped me. i'm not sure what it was but it tasted kinda crunchy but good too. i placed all my things down and as they ringed me up they were asking me questions just small talk. it was nice. as i finished paying one of the ladies ask me if i wanted to try this drink they made. i said sure (why not another free sample lols). they told me it was this all natural healthy pumpkin drink. it was good, caught me off guard when tasting pumpkin but it was good. they were so cute and nice i love it. they also gave me small container of kimchi and macaroni salad. which were both so yummy. especially the kimchi. i am so coming back here again when i get the chance!! beef kimbap $6 10pcs: so good so crunchy 10000/10. theres more carrots than the other ingredients but i dont mind it stir fried fish cakes $3: once again so good i love fish cakes in general so its so good read more
