Tofu House is a cozy spot for Korean food, perfect for sharing with friends. Known for their hot stone bulgogi and Chef's Special boiled tofu soup combo, this place hits the spot on a rainy day. The food is served piping hot, and customers can adjust the spice level to their liking. The restaurant is small but clean, with fast service. Vegetarian options are available, including tasty cold appetizers.
Many families visit regularly, often ordering dishes like Boiled Tofu with Kimchi Pork or Kimchi Beef, and the Hot Stone Bul Go Gi. The Boiled Tofu is delicious, especially when enjoyed with a higher level of spiciness. The Hot Stone Bul Go Gi is loved for its crispy rice and customizable sauce flavoring, along with sides of Kimchi, Spicy Cucumber, Fish Cake, and Daikon Radish Kimchi. Customers note that the combo deal offers better value than just ordering galbi alone, as the galbi portion alone can seem small for the price.
The prices are fair for the quality and amount of food, and the service is quick. The atmosphere is simple, but the open door can make it uncomfortable during extreme weather. The music can be loud at times, making conversation a bit difficult.
Recent reviews mention that while the quality of the food is okay, there are other tofu places that offer better quality for a lower price. One visitor enjoyed their first Korean food experience at this place and plans to return for ladies' night. Another noted that although seafood soups like the Chef's special and Seafood special had plenty of seafood, they lacked flavor compared to other shops.
Overall, Tofu House in San Diego is a good spot for a quick and satisfying Korean meal. The food quality is decent, and portions are acceptable, though customers might wait 15-20 minutes for their food and spend at least $20 per person. The kalbi ribs remain a standout dish.
