“I love Korean fried chicken, so I had to come check out Ttobongee Chicken. I ordered the Yang Nyum chicken, it is at the top of my list for KFC! The flavor was on point, spicy and sweet. It came with a side of radishes and I also ordered steamed rice. I hope I can get back there soon. If you are ever in Moterey, check out Ttobongee Korean Style Fried Chicken!“

Also, the noodles were perfectly chewy and not overcooked. We enjoyed the homemade fried dumplings which had great flavor and wonderful crunchy texture. I'm only sad that we found this place so late during our visit to the East Bay, but we look forward to trying out more dishes when we return to the East Bay.“

“K-Bob is such a cute little shop! We walked in and Peter was so accommodating and friendly with menu recommendations and suggestions. We got our food pretty quickly and enjoyed the K-pop music that was playing at just the right volume. My husband enjoyed his beef rolls. I was a little surprised to receive my ramen in a microwave cup, but it was pretty tasty, if a bit spicier than I typically choose. There were lots of customers coming in and out but it wasn't too crowded or cramped. I was a little disappointed to see that they don't recycle their soda cans. Overall a very pleasant impromptu meal.“

Service: one of the warmest I’ve had in Bay Area for sure. The guy was very welcoming, attentive and helpful! Makes the overall dining experience better.

Ambiance: I love how the name of the restaurant and “delicious” in Korean is corresponded. Overall it’s casual but I hope the kitchen vacuum is better so we don’t get too stuffed by the smell.“

“Decent breakfast/brunch spot with some Asian flavors. Mostly self-service - even a robot rolls out and sits there until the orders are picked up.

Original Egg Toast ($8.25) - Strongly recommended to add meat! It gives it an extra layer of flavor and much needed saltiness. They cut a THICk toast about 3/4 through and stuff it with fluffy, cheesy eggs.

Spicy Pork & Egg Burrito ($12.35) - Pork is sweet and reminds me of bulgogi. They have little packets of Tabasco which made it much better.“

“This is our go to place for korean food in Fremont for years. The food has been consistently good. We always order beef bulgogi & tofu soup combo for our family. We love the beef bulgogi. It has sweet savory sauce with tender beef. The tofu soup can be hit or miss. We got seafood white soup (not spicy) for our kiddo - it was good but I personally prefer medium spice for more depth of flavor.

The only downside was the parking. The parking was limited and got crowded during lunch or dinner time. So, most of the time we parked on the street nearby or we just do take out.“

“I only got 8 ban chan, that's still ok. Just the side dishes alone made coming here worth it. The Yuk gae Jang spicy beef soup was very delicious, I use it as a barometer to determine the level of the chef kind of like you can use plain fried rice to determine the level of a Chinese chef.

1/2026- The potato ban chan is my personal favorite, followed up by the bean sprouts and kim chee.

Bright atmosphere, hardly any of the customers here were speaking English. Strongly recommend this place.“

“I haven’t had Von’s Chicken for a very long time and I wanted to come back again because I was told that the chicken is super good there.

Honestly, I never step foot into their restaurant but had mines since my parents ordered a take out and come back home to eat their chicken. It’s my first time stepping in as of today. The interior looks alright. It’s just mediocre but at least they have pictures hanging on the wall. It’s not really a best place to really dine in unless you’re into quiet places.

I ordered lunch combo with Soy & Garlic boneless chickens with rice. I had no idea what that fruit was but it was colored light purple. They put the rice and chicken into one small container and the rice was sticky. The good news is that the chicken tastes really good. They really did put much effort into adding flavors to the chicken. I also like the fruit too. It came with a very small container and went with that first since I wanted to finish vegetables and fruits first.

The food is good but I don’t think it’s worth dining in especially if you’re into atmospheres. Yeah, I’ll try and order like a shareable versions of those chickens if I come back.“

“So....ended up at this place after going to a concert at Levi Stadium, heading home to the North Bay and needing some extra late night dinner. If you like Korean food the place won't disappoint. Had the army stew, which my 17 year old son had been wanting to try for a while now, plus some kimchi rice, short rib stew and a bowl of spicy edamame that the server brought us as a free treat. Service was amazing, especially for an after midnight visit. Next time we have to try Andy's fries because I saw someone at the table next to us order them and I'll he honest, they looked like late night foodie heaven.“

The customer service is always wonderful. Everyone is so kind, welcoming, and friendly every time we come in.

And you HAVE to try the Peanut Butter Passion Toast! It will not disappoint. The bread is perfectly crisp on the outside while still soft and chewy, and the whole combination is incredibly delicious.
