Oriental Spoon is my favorite restraunt! Their meals are not only delicious, there's a great variety to choose from. I've almost ordered every item on their menu over the years that I've eaten here and every item is fantastic. Mostly I've ordered take out recently since I live farther away, but in the past dined here as well. My only wish is that they have more locations. Cannot recommend them enough!
This is my favorite raman place. Great food, great prices and very friendly staff.

Not much to look at but the Ramyun is great and the spicy wontons are divine.

I don't know how to say how much I love this place. It's not fancy, but the simplicity is where it's at. The staff is always awesome (many have been there for quite some.time, so they must be treated right by management, which is cool) and the food.....the food has never disappointed. The egg drop soup and bibimbap are the best ever. I wish I could give 10 stars. Please don't ever change.

I have enjoyed my experiences both times I’ve gone here. The servers are great. The restaurant is clean. My only gripe about this place is that every dish I’ve had is very “one note”. I feel like there isn’t any depth to the flavor of the dishes I’ve tried. I have had multiple starters, a noodle dish, a bibimbap dish, and i have tried their ramyun. All of it, while good, just felt sort of lackluster. I would think that a simple addition of maybe bean sprouts, lime wedges, or even cilantro to a few dishes would be a huge step up. That being said this restaurant is loved by many people, I’d tell anyone reading this to go try it out. It just isn’t for me.

If you want good food come to here. The restaurant reminds me of my trips to Japan. The curry the katsu. The best restaurant in
The food is always fantastic and everyone who works there is so nice and helpful! I love coming here and I encourage others to go!Vegetarian options: Several veggie dishes are available!
Went for a family lunch on a Sunday. The beef bulgogi and the spicy pork bulgogi were both delicious.Parking: Strip mall parking lot is shared, but seemed to be large enough for all the businesses there.
Any time i want a great egg drop soup and amazing beef bulgogi this is the place for me. The service is always fast and friendly. The food always comes out quickly and it is consistently delicious! The decor is lacking, it’s a bit of a hole in the wall type of a place, but it is clean and amazing so no complaints from me!

This was a wonderful dining experience. It was my first time trying Korean cuisine but loved the food as it was delicious and good staff service as well. I will definitely stop again here if I visit this area in future.

This was a cute, intimate space for a date. There is a lot for parking, so no worries on that front. I ended up getting the strawberry chicken, which imho was the best dish of what we ended up getting. The strawberry flavor was light and not too sweet - 10/10 recommend. My date had the coconut shrimp and ramen. He didn't say anything particularly special about either of them. Service was hella quick, and everyone was friendly.

A tiny place to stop in and get a taste of Korean food. You won't get authentic sides for the bulgogi, but the kimchi is good, and they have the more popular dishes. It is great each time I visit, and it is good for a fast lunch.
This is the second Korean restaurant that I have been over the couple of years, and hence I probably cannot judge the test of their foods much. However, in comparison to the first place, it is not were close! The tables were sticky and not cleaned well...
Another Very nice dinner. Fresh and hot. Great
