3.5. Expensive for what you get. Food is generally solid for the Valley/if you're unwilling to drive to Ktown or a more Asian area. Got the kimchi and salmon triangle rice. Kimchi had a little kick which was nice. Salmon tasted almost smoked which was really interesting. Service was good. Staff was friendly and quick. It's in a plaza so plenty of parking. Overall it feels like a restaurant of trends . Rosé tteokbokki included.

Authentic Korean food - super yummy spam-egg musubi. Great for an after work snack, dinner or lunch! Nothing else like it in the area! :-D

This is exactly what the SFV and specifically Northridge needed! Bop+Hago was on my way so I wanted to stop by for a snack but ordered a bit more than that! The cashier was very sweet and she was keeping an eye on customers and their orders to make sure everyone got what they needed. Maybe 5 minutes after ordering my bag was ready! I ordered two triangle rices - Salmon and Crab, along with a Spam egg musubi , which all came to about $13. I ate the musubi first and let me tell you, LET ME TELL YOU - this is one of, if not the best spam musubi I've ever eaten. The rice was perfectly cooked and well seasoned with furikake, the seaweed was crispy, the egg was fluffy and slightly sweet just like Japanese tamago, and that spam - slightly sweet, tangy, and so crispy! I thought it was a piece of schnitzel or katsu because of how crispy it was. That texture makes such a world of difference! For the triangle rice, the rice itself was again well cooked. I did not like the salmon as much as the crab because the skin left on some pieces were pretty fishy and overpowered the flavor. But the salmon itself was soft and the seasoning was nice. And the crab was like one of the best Calfornia rolls you could have! Creamy, crabby, and full of meat. I definitely need to return for more and to try the other dishes offered

Honestly I just love Bophago soooo much. I’ve never been in store but I regularly order online and they never fail in consistency. Food always tastes great for the price, and it is very affordable especially for a college student. They always listen to the order notes and whenever I call in for a special request they take it into account and act accordingly. I only wished they would add a bit more to the menu like fried chicken. But other than that a great store and you will not regret it if you order from here!
I love coming here for the rose tteokbokki. It's so delicious and creamy. Also can't forget a little boxed taro, banana, or strawberry milk. They are so good. The service is quick just give them a call and it will be ready shortly. The ambience is a cute quiet little store and it deserves more love. They also have shaved ice that I have yet to try but I will definitely have to give it a try soon.

I've been here twice and I love getting the rose tteok-bokki. Very savory and creamy, with just the right amount of mild spice. I tried the injeolmi bingsu which I enjoyed once I stirred the powder in more. The mochi was a bit hard but it was not too bad. Thoughtful of them to put ice in the bag since I got it to-go. Easy parking and kind service. Space is cute and they sell some snacks in the store.

I was so surprised to find a place like this exists. It’s definitely an amazing spot. It’s affordable, the meals are a good portion, they are so tasty and the customer service is amazing as well.I had the rice balls, the one with the tofu and the regular one with bulgogi beef, crab meat as well as Terri-chicken and it was so good ?. I also ordered the ramen cup bop, I have never tried something like that before and my taste buds were pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend this place
Love it!!!! Fresh, fast, delicious food. Super friendly staff members. Will definitely be back!!!!

Food was really good and workers there were super friendly. I was even given a bingsoo on the house. I'll definitely be coming back when I return to LA.

The food was good for the price. There was nobody in there so we had no time finding a spot to sit and eat. Everything came out quickly but then the staff disappeared for a while and we couldn't get ahold of anyone to give us boxes to go. Otherwise not bad, would eat here again.
I love musubis so when I saw this place on Yelp, I wanted to try the entire menu. These are pretty filling and are made to order. I ordered the tuna, tuna mayo, spicy tuna, crabspam musubi and the special garlic butter shrimp. Everything was delicious and hit the spot. It's definitely snack food but you can probably get 3-4 as your meal if you want to get full. It looks super cool inside and person who took my order was very friendly.

Love this place! Definitely a nice spot to grab a quick bite and drink! They have a variety of Korean snacks and drinks! The vibe is really cute inside with K-pop music playing on the tv. The triangle rice balls are good, my personal favorites are the crab meat, bulgogi and the spicy tuna. The bingsoo is good too as well as their k style iced coffee. The service is quick as well. It's a fun hangout spot!

Affordable korean comfort food, perfect for a grab and go or a quick stop for a quick bite, w kpop music vids to complement ;) Aside from the tteokbokki sauce being grainier (almost like spaghetti sauce?) than I would've liked, the rice and fishcakes were yummy ($7.99) I would definitely come back to try their ramen and bingsu. Coffee at $3.50 was a banger - and I'm usually not a coffee drinker but I liked that there was little to no bitterness. Rice balls were seasoned nicely, tho I liked the bulgogi ($4.25) flavor more than the salmon ($4.45) Nice staff and huge parking lot.

First time here and I thought everything was so great. I got a few triangle rice balls to try out and my favorite had to be the shrimp and the pork one. I also had to try out their rose tteok-bokki and wow it was so delicious. I also love the vibe and design of the shop. It's a really nice place to sit and hang out with friends or even study at.

We wanted a light snack and found this place in Northridge. The restaurant looks pretty cool inside and they carry Asian snacks and drinks. We ordered the Tteok-bokki (rice cakes in a spicy gochujang sauce), a few triangle rice (kimchi, spicy salmon, bulgogi, teriyaki chicken and spicy tuna), fried dumplings, and Bing-su Injeolmi (shaved ice with condensed milk, topped with mochi and shaved almonds. I thought the Tteok-bokki was tasty, a bit on the sweeter side, and has a nice spice to it. The Trice (triangle rice) all looked great. The taste was fine, but felt it could have been tastier. The fried dumplings were standard, but when dipped into the Tteok-bokki sauce, it made them that much better. The Bingsu was good. We loved that condensed milk flavor and the toppings. They have a few other toppings as well. The staff and service were great. Overall a good experience for what we were looking for. If you're looking for a snack, and not a meal, come check this place out. Happy Nom Nom!
