“The sweet rice drink♡ bingsoo♡ kimbap♡♡ can't wait to go back and try more!!“

“The vegetarian option include the toast with hash brown and toast with avocado. There should be more on the menu. I enjoyed the food and the service is pretty good, especially they use a robot for serving the food! It’s a little bit loud and noisy, other than that, I’d like to come back again.Vegetarian options: You will have to judge whether it’s vegetarian or no based on the ingredients.“

“The little spot was full of surprises. I came here to meet up a friend and everything here was great! The staff were so friendly and made sure we were ok and even helped up with our food. I orders the pork bulgogi and also the sausage stew. FYI pork bulgogi is a little spicy so if you get it expect a little heat. It was very good though. As for the sausage stew. You might want to share this one with a friend because it is a lot. Perfect for those cold days or if you have a pretty bad hang over. This place definitely reminds me of my grandmas cooking when I was little. I'm so glad I came in to try it. I'll be back when I'm in the area.“

“Awesome food and presentation. Friendly service!“

“So I went here for the first time last summer, and it was amazing! Now almost a year later, and the food remains delicious and consistent! I got the half order of their fried chicken, with a side of French fries and mozzarella sticks. A killer combination! The environment was chill, the volume was good, with some really good K-pop playing offer the speakers, which is important to me being a K-pop stan. Service was great and very attentive! I love this place, and I which I lived near here to come by mire often for a delicious meal. Overall 20/10!“

“Thefoodwaswhat I have been wanting for sooo long beef with rice cooked right... the service was excellent I am allergic to seafood and the waitress understood (amazingly). The place was not fully packed when we went in to seat but about 5 minutes later it was full... it's a hit and miss around the movie times lol. Get there early to enjoy the meal then a movie.“

“Great small Korean restaurant! Their seafood pancake is crispy on the outside and with tons of seafood chunks. Tofu seafood soup was flavorful and not too heavy. Only disappointing dish was the cold noodles as they were a bit bland and lack of flavor. Definitely recommend this for your regular Korean crave.“

“Came here for takeout for the super bowl and we were lucky enough to get squeezed in since they were so busy. Shared the medium fried chicken for 2 people which came with rice and salad. Got the soy garlic and spicy medium flavor. Both flavors kinda tasted similar. The spicy one tasted like the soy garlic but it was the perfect level of spice. The chicken was plump and moist, and perfectly crispy, even eating it after taking it home. It's expensive but I do appreciate the sides they give to make it a real meal. The salad was also light and delicious. A perfect compliment to the heavy wings!“

“I would pass by World Wrapps many times whenever I went to City Center, wondering what food they had.It's a good thing I tried, because it's now my go-to place for great and healthy cuisine.They have a wide selection and even vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options. The cost is reasonable, and the serving size is adequate.The only restaurant I could visit several times a week!“

“Craving for Korean food Tofu Dumpling Stew: Comforting, flavorful, satisfying Fried Chicken Original: Crispy, juicy, flavorful (some type of curry taste, very interesting!) Kimchi Pancake: Crispy, delicious, addictive. Half Galbi with Naengg Myon Combo Plum Soju: Sweet, refreshing (never tried this flavor soju, must have!)“

“Happened to stop by right before they were closing the staff member was soooo nice! I was about to leave because I did not realize they closed in five minutes. She said no no and took my order anyways and I had drove a while to get to this spot so this was very very nice and accommodating! Anyways food review : Cheeto dog 5 stars tasted great perfect amount of Cheeto dust ratio to dog!Original corn dog was also equally delicious! The whole place smelled of cleaning supplies and you can just tell this place cares about their service and cleanliness.“

“Pretty great option for chicken around here. I have always enjoyed Korean style chicken so when I saw options such as the honey butter or yangyum chicken here I definitely had to try it. Firstly, both the wings and drumsticks are huge and satisfying to eat. At its core it is great fried chicken with just the right amount of crunch without losing its juiciness. Flavor-wise I think both of these options are really good. The yangyum chicken, kind of wish had a bit more gochujang/garu smokiness to its flavor, tasted closer to tteokbokki type of sweet sauce and that added savory bite would have really hit my taste buds right. The honey butter chicken is equally great with a sweet and flavorful bite, though they only add just enough powder to get the flavor... would prefer it coated.Service is friendly and the front is simply a walk up counter, no dining in, etc. the pickled radish that comes with the chicken is better than alternatives I have been to but is still missing that refreshing bite that I have had in Korea.“

“Every chicken flavor is absolutely delicious!! My daughters and wife love this place!! We have to eat here at least once a week!!“

“Best jajang around“

“We've been here several times now and really enjoy how flavorful the food is. Even our young kids really like it. My favorite are pretty much anything that's spicy, the hot sauce they use is delicious. My daughter likes the brisket and pretty much fills up on that over a rice bowl.My only complaint is how expensive it is. So we only go on special occasions or when we have the extra money for it.Atmosphere is beautifully lit and we enjoy sitting at the booth seating.Kid-friendliness: We bring our kids and they enjoy the food and helping on the grill.“

“Mama Cho's is a GREAT Castro Valley bistro that serves Korean American fare. Due to it's location, it's a hidden gem that deserves a visit whenever you're in the area. It does not disappoint! I tried the Kalbi Burger and KBBQ Plate - both are delicious. The store carries a lot of Korean food products on their shelves. If you're looking for a one stop shop for lunch and kimchi - this place is worth checking out!“

“Such a popular spot for dinner on a Saturday night! The tables were all full at 7:00 pm so we added our name to their waitlist and stepped outside. We haven't been here in a few years since I've been out of the area. We were happy to see that they are still very popular. They were clearing a table in the middle of the restaurant and we were seated fairly quickly but I felt claustrophobic being so close to others. A table of five was seated inches away from our table. It is definitely a cozy atmosphere! The servers are incredibly hardworking and efficient. Menus and hot tea were delivered to our table within minutes. We ordered the hot stone bibimbap (dolsat) and a beef tofu soup. The small appetizer plates (banchan) are one of the nicest assortments I have seen (9 in total). I especially enjoyed one dish that tasted like braised potato with a touch of sweetness. They were all delicious. My tofu soup came with a raw egg that I cracked and added to my boiling hot soup. My dish also came with a whole fried fish which I promptly gave to my hubby. The broth was like a comforting blanket of warmth. It had an amazing burst of flavor and the right amount of ingredients and spiciness (I ordered medium spicy). My husband really enjoyed his dolsat. It came with an assortment of vegetables and beef topped with a fried egg over rice. We were completely satisfied with our meals. Everything was incredibly delicious, no wonder this is such a busy place. It seemed as though there were people waiting at the door every time I looked so this is definitely still a popular spot. The servers are always on the move serving up banchan and drinks and carts are being pushed around that have boiling hot stone pot dishes. It can get a bit chaotic at times but as soon as you request something of a server, they deliver it to your table immediately. Food is truly amazing! Busy parking lot shared with other businesses and restaurants.“

“Had a wonderful lunch date experience at this cute place and enjoyed good food. However, service could be improved. Server was not that friendly and had to be asked for tea many times; it felt like she was being bothered every time we asked for something.“
