Moo Bong Ri (MBR Oakland)

Food: we got the korean fried chicken based off of reviews- the red sauce was nothing special, having an awful after taste. Soy garlic flavor was good. The chicken was dry, hard, and honestly inedible. I would bite the chicken, chew it and when swallowing would feel it going down my throat. This was the worst fried chicken i’ve ever had.
Service: so awful… we came in and were seated. Another group came in after us. The waitress went over to them and took their order before ours. Then another table also came in after we had ordered our food. Both tables ended up getting their food before us. It also felt biased via serving (there were others that were being asked if they needed anything while we were ignored.) we didn’t get any utensils and i asked for some and the waitress rudely said the utensils were under the table. As first time (and now last time) customers, we had no clue about that and no one even bothered to point it out when our food came. Things were just thrown at our table and we did not feel welcome at all. Felt out of place and definitely staff was discriminating against us.

Have been coming to this place for more than six years now and have always enjoyed the food here. My favorites are the blood sausage, pork rib soup, acorn cold noodle, and assorted pork soup. Very authentic Korean menu items that you can hardly find anywhere else in the Bay Area.

If you’re looking for truly authentic Korean food, this place is a hidden gem. It’s rare to find a good restaurant serves Soondae (traditional Korean sausage). Highly recommended!

Really enjoyed my visit to Moo Bong Ri. The staff were friendly, the vibe was relaxed, and everything just felt really well done. You can tell they care about what they’re serving. I’d definitely come back.
