Reviews
Delicious Korean classics, including snack foods like kimbap. One annoying thing is you have to pay for water, no hot tea. Otherwise, worth the food.
I loveeee the food! 10/10 for the food, I wish they had different sides if you’re ordering multiple entrees. Sucks they don’t have free water and only bottled.
I’ve eaten here several times. Everytime before tonight has been awesome! I guess the quality goes down when they’re busy.
The beef bulgogi is usually very tender and easy to eat. This time it was hard to eat, even cutting it with a knife and had crazy amount of fat on it.
The cabbage and onions that fine with it were raw.
Highly disappointed.
We've been coming to K-Bop Korean Bistro since it opened. Despite the last time we were here, our seafood pancake wasn't extra crispy like we requested, it was still delicious. We enjoy everything we've had over the years. The service is good and quick. Price per portion and quality is worth it. And I enjoy all the K-Pop music accompanying every bite.
First time going today. The beef bulgogi plate was absolutely beautiful. The sides are provided with each plate, and the kimchi had the perfect amount of kick and flavor. Will definitely return soon. Thank you for the food!
K-Bop is probably my favorite korean restaurant i’ve tried yet! We got the jajangmyeon, kimchi chigae, and kimchi jeon and the prices are really good for the amount and quality of food you get. we also didn’t have to wait long to have our order taken and food prepared. we probably had to wait 5 minutes max! the ambience is also very nice and aesthetic. the only con is that there isn’t any free water but bottled drinks can be bought for $1.50
Been a while since the last time we ate here; blame it on pandemic and street parking at the U. One thing I realized, the price has gone more than 50% since before the pandemic; hope some of the proceeds help the folks working at the place. As to the food, we had dolsot bibimbap, mul naeng myeo (cold sour noodle), kimbap. All are very good; we love this place.
Excellent Korean spot in dinky town! Very spacious with small and long tables. Pleasant and friendly service. A must-visit location! Definitely coming back.
1. Jampong $16: Flavorful and exactly the right amount of spice and saltiness. Seafood (clams, shrimp, calamari rings, octopus tentacles, and baby scallops) were perfectly tender. A good amount of veggies but could use more ratio to noodle proportion. Very generous bowl!
2. Du Bu Dae Chigae $12: Rich and flavorful broth, perfectly cooked Ramen, and ingredients. Rice was cooked well. Bowl was worth it and it came out sizzling!
3. Fried Mandu (veg) $11: Crispy exterior with a moist interior. Tad bit soggy filling but good. Came in a quantity of 8 per order. The dumpling soy sauce was good but a bit salty. When eaten with the mandatory it paired well.
4 Kimbap $6.25: One roll to go. The daughters enjoyed it at home but said it was salty but ok.
Banchan sides:
A. Sweet pickled cucumbers: Crunchy & fresh but sweet. Sliced onions round out the bite.
B. Napa cabbage kimchi: Mild and tangy but very crisp and great.
C. Fish cake slices: Mildly sweet but savory and the texture is perfectly soft and not tough.
