The cook was on her phone and cooking while wearing gloves. She never changed them or washed her hands between using her phone and preparing my food. Food handlers certified behavior? No.
Soups and tteokbokki are very very tasty and are pretty affordable given the price. The ordering and pickup system is a little weird but food was so good and cheap I will be back here many time
Casual place popular with college students with a variety of snacks and vegetarian options.
Food itself is nice. Not the kind of Korean food I personally love, but the noodles and Korean cheese dogs have good textures. They use the same noodle in the japchae as in the soup so it isn't like I'm used to, but it was better than most japchae I've had with good sesame oil.
They are popular for their kimchi fried rice, but takeout of that is a fair bit smaller than eating...read full review

Kimchi Garden is a casual restaurant popular with college students, offering a variety of Korean-inspired snacks and vegetarian options. The menu includes dishes like kimchi fried rice, beef bulgogi, pork belly, beef kimbap, and hotdogs such as Korean cheese dogs. Many customers enjoy the tasty soups and tteokbokki, which are affordable and flavorful. The kimchi fried rice is frequently praised, and the kimchi stew is seen as fair value for the price. Some dishes, like japchae, are considered oily and soggy, while others like the ton katsu rice bowl are highly recommended. The restaurant also offers unique items such as mochinut and drinks like ube and horchata, which receive positive reviews.
However, the service experience is often criticized. There are reports of poor hygiene practices, such as food handlers not changing gloves or washing hands, and a lack of attentive service, with no plates or bowls provided, and customers responsible for sorting waste. The ordering system is automated via kiosks, and the atmosphere is minimalistic, with no decoration. Some find the food tasteless with low-quality products, especially when eating in, while others find the dishes decent for takeout. The restaurant's late hours make it a convenient choice for groups, but the overall quality and service may not meet everyone's expectations.
