I prefer this location over the garden Grove. It is more spacious and wait times are more reasonable

This place gets busy so arrive right when they open to put your name down and have patience! They have robots to deliver your items so it cuts the work for the servers because they have a lot of tables to wait. For was delicious. Me and my cousin got the combo with an entree plus soup and rice. Both items can be customized how spicy or non spicy you like it. The rice in the clay pot was so good, bc the bottom crisp up! Love that! Lots of people so keep your kids in your space. This place is good for family gathering or meeting with friends. Menu is limited to kids choices. Will be back soon again!

We love this restaurant but I just need to share our near death experience for memory's sake. 6 of us dined in for lunch on Sunday. We're all regulars except for one guy who's Filipino but he might as well be Korean lol, so we all asked for the "triple spicy" soondubu. I just want to reiterate we ALWAYS order this level of spice and we come 2-3x a month. Here comes 6 boiling hot soups making its way to our table and 2 minutes later, everyone is gasping for air. The ENTIRE restaurant was smokey and every table was gasping for air, coughing into a napkin. Even the kitchen workers had to take a step outside. This should've been a red flag for us but we figured it was bc of the steam from the soups coming out at once. Now that I think of it, the whole restaurant almost died too. Everyone takes 3-4 bites and no one speaks...turns out we're all thinking the same thing -- "is it just me or is this unusually f**in spicy?" Within 5 minutes, we began dropping like flies one by one. My husband is drenched in sweat looking like the key n peele meme. My stomach was hurting so bad I couldn't sit straight. One guy went to the restroom. Our gf weakly says "I can't see" and we all watch her with dry ass lips and completely lose color...she gets up ON HER OWN and her knees are trembling and as soon she walks halfway through the exit, she falls to the ground and passes out in the restaurant. At this point, the entire restaurant is looking at us (again) and we rush her outside to get some fresh air. I start to feel dizzy and end up throwing up behind the restaurant. Our friend makes it to the car and throws up. The kitchen workers come out back and offer us water and soy milk. 10 mins after our friend passed out, I felt better and asked the servers what happened since we usually order "triple spicy" and it's NEVER a near death experience like today's. It turns out the server that took our order went home...so they call her and tell us we asked for "TRIPLE TRIPLE spicy"...TRIPLE. TRIPLE. SPICY. YALL. THATS 2x triple WTF?!? We didn't even know a "triple triple" existed, so yeah no wonder we just about died right there. After 30 minutes of absolute pain and contemplation on life, we got new soups togo and they gave us shikhe (Korean sweet rice drink) on the house bc they felt so bad LMAO. One of the servers even came outside to check on our gf and luckily we didn't need to go to the ER, she smiled with a thumbs up hahahaha. I don't think we'll be eating soondubu soon since we're completely traumatized but we will be back -- the service is great, the food is amazing (aside from yday) along with the banchan but just make sure you never order "triple triple spicy" unless you want to die. Some of us had to call out of work but we're all alive and recovering. I rly wish we could get access to the footage bc it was Korean drama fr fr.

Nice comfortable place for lunch. Fun to watch the robot serve food. Nice portion. Food quality is authentic

Great place for some comforting Korean food. I love coming here for their tofu soup. The service is typically pretty fast, and most days that I've visited I haven't had to wait. This location is quite a bit larger than their Garden Grove location so it's more spacious. The mild tofu soup is a good level of spiciness for me and the soup is always very flavorful. I've tried the kimchi and oyster and kimchi and beef tofu soup and it's very delicious. I've also tried their bulgogi and galbi which is pretty good too. They offer good banchan too, and come around every so often with a cart to refill them, or you can ask directly as well.

This place was awesome! I always order their mild Oyster tofu soup! It was perfect specially when it's cold. Dumpling was so good and the galbi was tender and juicy. Service was good but sometimes they're in a hurry because a lot of customers were eating, so they're not that attentive. Ambiance was typical korean restaurant, there's a robot server which was cute though. Will keep on coming back here for sure.

Korean comfort food! Loved the bibimbap and bulgogi. The clam tofu soup needed a little more flavor for me. Overall- nice place, quiet and private (we came at an odd hour too-3pm) and parking wasn't a problem. We asked for seconds on the side dishes too!

Kaju tofu house is best Korean restaurant in California! They serve authentic Korean cuisine with top-notch service. Hard to find a place like this. Seafood tofu soup was my favorite! The wait is always long, but food is top notch. Love the ambiance! The servers are happy to refill side dishes. Support them, show up and love them.

This is the place to go for a seafood pancake. I just wish they had more veggie dish options.
Ordered a to go order combo and they forgot my extra bowl of rice! I have included the picture of receipt and everything in the bag. The sides on to go orders don't include mashed potatoes, anchovies, and raw egg FYI. I don't recommend getting to go from this restaurant because the amount of food you get is much less than dine in. If you want the actual experience then dine in.

They were quite busy (Sunday evening) but the service was solid! The robot cat server (?) is a fun touch; I've only experienced something similar at sushi restaurants. There's a timer on it--very amusing for me when we were trying to grab all of the side dishes before it timed out. The food was delicious. Everyone had a tofu soup. We also got the pork which was solid. I also loved how they served their rice in a stone pot. Make sure to leave the lid on for long enough to get a good crisp! I took mine off to cool the rice--bad idea as the rice dried up and less heat = no crisp! Next time I will be leaving the lid on for much longer, and closing it as soon as I scoop some rice out to eat. My partner did it right and got a beautiful crisp on the bottom. We were in a bit of a hurry so didn't ask for hot tea, water, or sesame oil. Next time though, we will have to do that to add to the stone pot to have with the crispy rice at the end of the meal. I plan to visit again!

I'm a regular at BCD for tofu soup but decided to branch out and try Kaju Soft Tofu in Buena Park, and it didn't disappoint! Even though it was really busy on Friday night, the service was good. It was super cool to have a robot bring us our food, which made the experience fun. The tofu soup rivaled, if not surpassed, what I've had at BCD, striking the perfect balance of flavors that warmed the soul. Additionally, the galbi was a standout, arriving juicy and deliciously marinated, leaving me already planning my next visit. Kaju Soft Tofu has earned a new regular!

I always come with my family but lately the flavor of the beef tofu is different, it has no flavor, and the Galbi the meat is very thick and has a lot of fat
