Great food, friendly service! Four of us stopped in for a late lunch over Labor Day weekend. We tried the Bulgogi lunch box and Galbi lunch box, as well as a Pork bibimbap. Everything was delicious and came out pretty quickly. Would definitely go back here!

Everything is tasty here! Love their seafood pen cake so much it's also good to have their tofu soup when you need a hot soup during cold day! Their service is super friendly. High recommend!

Loved both dishes I got here! The veggie cheese kimbap and Tteok-bokki were great. Inexpensive too. Will definitely order again.

Our server was super friendly, and stayed on top of everything. The dumplings were great, and the beef bibimbap was good. They were out of multiple menu items (4+) which was a little disappointing. We also were served room temperature water which was odd. Also was put off by the sign that read "2 Free Sodas for a Yelp review, positive preferred".

Never have I ever had or seen tteokbokki so watery before. It’s like a broth. And so sweet…I feel like I’m having a container of Splenda. Disgusting.

I grew up in S CA with a TON of Korean friends - the food brings back great memories. I have the kimchi jjigae whenever I'm feeling under the weather - the spiciness and hot soup clears up my sinuses real quick! And I love the bibimbap bowls. I've tried the ramen during the winter too. Totally satsifying, homemade tasting, traditional Korean food for reasonable prices. Many veggie friendly options too. A nice break when you're craving Asian food but something different from traditional Chinese or Thai. Highly recommend!

I ordered via Yelp and I waited for 20 minutes and when I finally approached them, they said they had never gotten my order until now. I told them I put it in 20 minutes ago and they scolded me for not calling them instead of placing it online. If you're gonna put your business on Yelp to order, then obviously I wouldn't need to call. They didn't even cancel or refund me the order. I asked her and she said she didn't know how to. Hopefully Yelp will refund me my order. I ended up wasting my break with no meal.

Ordered their tteokbokki and bulgogi kimbap. Their tteokbokki was disappointing and soupy (even with part of the soup spilling because the delivery container wasn't properly sealed). There were only about 10 rice cakes in total for the whole dish as well. The bulgogi kimbap was average. The meat was pretty dry and they included a fair bit of rice in their too. Overall underwhelming.

K-bap serves exceptional Korean food. They are nicely tucked away from the busy midtown streets so it's a good place to get a quiet bite to eat. The service is exceptional and our food was quite good!! Flavors are good and the menu has variety. Would highly recommend!
Stay away! It's true all other yelpers said woman at front desk is awful. Had one meal dine-in & one meal to-go. Was asked tips at the counter, when I just paying meals before I even seat down. When I said I will pay tips at the end, she said everyone else pay up front always. I never seen paying tips in advance, unless nail salon. She also asked me, if I'm Fresh off the boat from Korea & where I'm come from then. WTF? I lived here almost 30 yrs in US, never had this rude encounter. No side dishes. Ttukbokyi is bland, tasteless. I had to ask water & extra napkin. She also said why asked more napkins, if I already have one. When I leave, She mumbling something in Korean, when she saw my cash tips next to bowl. Once I got home, kimchi fried rice is not typical one I used to eat in other restaurants. Dark, Burnt and some white rice is still stuck together, not fried. Not worth $13. Never again.

I ordered the dumpling soup and the seafood pancake. The seafood pancake was good actually but the service was horrible. Dumpling soup lacked flavor and the mandoo dumplings in it weren’t good. Usually mandoo is very flavorful. Server wasn’t attentive either and took awhile to get my check even when I kept calling out for it.

I've had better. Upon entrance I was ignored by the lady at the front desk. I dine in Korean restaurants very frequently. I was not given side dishes. The food is bland. I give this place 2 stars because location was convenient. Might as well take a trip to ktown to receive proper service and tasty food.

Food was good before but now horrible after they raise the price . Not only the staff (older Asian woman )don’t answer the phone for hours and while we stepped into the store she yell at us that they don’t serve the food in store ( when there is another Asian customer eating there ) and only do to go.She said because they are very busy when there is one customer in store only while all other table are empty )so she yell at her high pitch voice if we going to order or not.We said yes so she told us to go to front of desk to order and we waited and no one come from inside to take order and she just cleaning table outside while keeping us waiting for another 5 minutes . Finally came to take our order and told us to enter tip and sign and come back in 10 minute to pickup our food!So we order 2 dishes to go and when I went back to pickup there is another new customer (American young guy ) having a soda while waiting for his food.My spicy tofu soap was very watery and NOT spicy no favor except little sour. Rice in the plastic container that come with the spicy tofu soap was half empty and normally they gave a small portion of kimchi but nothing this time. The price was $14 for the tofu soap included tax. This dish was awful now nothing like before.My kid’s plate beef over rice $18 plus tax was ok but it would have taste better if we can eat inside the store on the sizzling plate that they normally put on.Photo is the spicy tofu soap with beef before I start eating and as you can see it is not even full like before. I lives half block from the store and often order or eat in store with my family before Pandemic like once or twice a week. There used to be some younger Asian ladies taking order but the woman work there now on jun8 2021 was just rude! I won’t be ordering from this restaurant again.
