“This is a place to go for good comfort food.The popularity of K-Grill has definitely grown. And well-deserved.The place is either packed or have a line of people during the normal lunch and dinner hour. It’s easier to get a table outside of the normal meal hours.The staff are friendly and nice, albeit a bit brusque because they are so busy. So they are super efficient too.Banchan and tea/water graces the table very quickly after an order is place. And everything that comes from this kitchen is delicious! The is the only K-restaurant where banchan includes a whole croaker for everyone.If I describe every dish, it would be a superlative on everything. I don’t think one can go wrong with anything on the menu. Just go with whatever category you feel like and a delicious meal will appear.Save a bit of the crunchy rice in the original rice container. Before the end of your meal, ask to have some hot tea added and enjoy it with any remaining banchan.“
“Ordered on Uber eats, made a few substitutions in the special instructions. The substitutions were perfectly followed and the total was adjusted accordingly. Food was delicious, well priced and came in good packaging. Very pleased to find a good go to sushi when traveling to the area.“
“Excellent place to have lunch and experience a little more of Korean cuisine, the atmosphere was warm and not too crowded, the music was low, the waiters were attentive and friendly. The food was delicious, the salads were well dressed and fresh, the meats They tasted good, I will return with my friends and family. You will need a reservation!“
“Came here with a reservation and needed to wait about 5 minutes to get seated. I was sat at the bar in the back which could see into the open part of the kitchen which was fun to watch preparation and plating. I really enjoyed the pancake with mountain yam. I thought the lettuce/greens basket was fresh with good variety. Service was very friendly.“
“Food, service, atmosphere all satisfactoryOrdered Jjajangmyeon, Jjambbong, sweet and sour pork, walnut shrimp, and fried dumplings.Everything was delicious and the portions were plentiful.The owner was really friendlyBe sure to find parking on the nearby streets, and be sure to bring your luggage with you to avoid getting lost!“
“We usually get the hash brown sandwich with my partner. It’s always delicious and very simple looking breakfast, with lots of flavor. They are faster than F1 fast car.!!! Friendly environment. Parking on street is pretty much available during the morning since not much people is there.This one of the many pictures in the table which makes the place pretty interesting to look at.“
“Go now for brunch before it blows up!!!Omg not only are their brunch items so aesthetically beautiful they are DELISH!!!We had the fluffy cakes, the Benedict Sando, and the 1398 Rancheros. The Benedict Sando was deconstructed- sandwich and then a dish of delicious poached eggs in mustardy hollandaise sauce. Wow!! The bulgogi on the rancheros was delicious and sooo flavorful, and spiced very mildly- not too spicy at all. The fluffy cakes stole the show. I even used a few of the dry cakes to sop up my Benedict sauce. Yum yum yum!!!!Also service was great, not slow at all, and super attentive. They ran out of the Thai iced tea and replaced it immediately with another beverage. Very thoughtful.“
“Love this spot! The service is very welcoming and friendly, and the food tastes like a Korean home cooked meal. They don't mess around with flavor here!I would say everything on the menu is a must try, but my favorites are the Hangover Soup, Fried Chicken w/ Yuzu Sauce, and Corn Cheese (addicting).An honorable mention would be the stuffed mushrooms.Lastly, the restaurant is a fun vibe with great music. They have an event almost every week so check out their IG for a party!“
“Well, how do you do! What a fantastic foodie find. Small shop that packs enormous flavor.Their kimchi fried is great with onions, kimchi & tiny squares of tofu that is seasoned to perfection. Jap chae with slivers of carrots, green onions and yellow onions.That galbi was a show stopper, grilled before my very eyes, lightly sauced tender to the touch it separated from the bone every so easily. The small portion of kimchi that's included is not enough. You can thankfully purchase a mason jar of kimchi. The portion sizes are fat kid pleasing.Go in pairs parking is terrible.They take cards“
“I went last fall for the first time to meet up with a friend and her new boyfriend. It was really cold so I really appreciated the fire heat lamps outside the store. The service was pretty good, and the standard side dishes in korean cuisine were up to expectation. It's standard Korean food but nothing absurdly amazing that stood out to me, but I'd give it another shot later down the line if I'm entertaining visitors out of SF.“
“I've tried the Daeho in japantown SF and I've had the Daeho in San Jose...but I feel like this Daeho tastes the best??? I'm not sure if it's the meat quality, portion sizes, flavor or what but this is my favorite location out of all the Bay Area locations.Daeho specializes in galbi-jjim, which is Korean braised beef short ribs in the most delicious sauce. You MUST get the cheese on top because they torch it at your table and it makes for a great IG story haha. I also like to get rice cakes in it. The large size can feed a table of four.The spice level is kind of inconsistent among the chains or even on certain days. I usually get spicy and I thought it wasn't spicy, during my most recent trip. (Maybe my spice tolerance went up? Maybe the chef just made it less spicy?) If you're unsure what spice level you are, I would err on the side of less spicy because you can always add spicy to it later.Aside from the beautiful galbi-jjim, I think everything else on the menu is pretty good. I like to pair my galbi-jjim order with a cold noodle to offset the heat. I think the soups here are so good. Their galbi-tang (short rib soup) is perfect on a cold day.“
“Nice place to enjoy a hot breakfast by UCSF Mission Bay area by 16 St. The menu offers sandwiches and Korean dishes. Excellent service by the lady in charge. The restaurant has an extensive menu for breakfast and great specials for lunch. Seating outside. Parking lot is free while you eat.“
“This is my favorite shop in H Mart food hall. They have good quality of traditional Korean Beef Rib Soup and Bone Soup. First time ordered beef rib soup noodle and noodle it’s chewy and taste better than ramen. Soup base has beef bone aroma too. Highly “
“I can’t believe I haven’t been here yet and I’ve passed this restaurant about a million times. For a native San Franciscan (40 year resident), something affordable without compromising the flavors and the service is a welcome deal! I’m definitely coming back here. Thanks to my professor and friend from SF State for treating me here.“
“The galbi jjim here is amazing! It's pretty pricey, but I don't mind because the food here is really good and I don't come too often. There're a ton of different things you can try. I like the modern atmosphere and I love how cute the menus are. They're like little gates that open up and welcome you in. Be careful if you don't like spicy food, though. The spice tolerance required for mild is already pretty high.“
“I came by here while visiting a friend - we got to the restaurant around 7:30pm.The restaurant, on the outside, was very unassuming, however, upon entering, you find a warm and inviting dining interior. There are few booth seats near the entrance, with semi-see through privacy curtains.There was only one party of 2 ahead of us when we got there, but it was still a good 15-20 minute wait.We were seated in the back dining area, and got some drink orders in, as well as an order of spicy edamame.I ended up ordering the stir fried chicken gizzard, which came out sizzling on a serving tray. The gizzard was a bit tougher than I was expecting, but the flavor was good and paired well with the rice and beer.Not too bad overall, but I wish they had wifi, since their menu is via QR code, and signal is very spotty at the back dining room. They did have some printed menus on hand, but we ended up having to ask for them, since neither of us managed to get enough signal to view the online menu.Parking: There are a good number of street parking spots around the area, but they can fill up pretty quick.“
“Loved my experience here. I was craving a Sizzling Bibimbap with beef and Manna was closed. Decided to give this place a try and I'm so happy I did. I would highly recommend! Although there were several other tables I was seated right away. Service was quick & efficient. My Bibimbop came out sizzling hot!! I was so impressed because it stayed sizzling for a while even when I started eating it. The rice at the bottom was perfectly crispy without being over-burnt. It was absolutely delicious! Price was also very reasonable. Total came out to $22 with tip. I will definitely be coming back and trying other things on their menu like their stuffed mushrooms.“
“The Alemany Boulevard location of HMart opened in 2021, a 48,000 square feet Korean-American grocery store and a small food hall. The seafood selection offers perfectly sliced sushi and fresh seafood from live tanks. The marinated meats are a favorite in my house, especially the kalbi short ribs and the bulgogi beef. Don't skip the snack aisle, chips, nuts, crackers and candies galore. The noodle aisle is an experience in itself, each time I discover something new to try. The banchan is my favorite, radishes, cabbage, scallions and more. If you are looking for prepared foods Korean sushi or kimbap are my choice for a quick snack when I get home. My son loves the Korean corn dogs, the frozen dumplings are always in my cart. In the food hall you can dine at a table or take out. The Korean Fried Chicken at Left Wing, Daeho for Kalbi Stone Pot and Paris Baguette Bakery for pastries and cake. ,“
“I’m a truck driver, just delivering in the area, this place was recommended to me by the owner who I was delivering to. Now I’m from the east coast, and those burgers hit home for me. 10/10 recommend !! The best burger I’ve had in a while. Service was amazing, nice friendly guy. Served in like 3 mins. Amazing“
“We tried Da Pan in the Hmart food court and decided to try the cheese katsu (because the picture looked very cheesy) and the bulgogi fried rice. The Cheese Katsu was good and came with a side of miso soup, rice, salad and kimchi. Unfortunately the cheese was only on the top layer and not all around like the picture. So the bottom was missing cheese. The katsu was crispy and cheese had a nice pull. The Bulgogi fried rice was very tasty. This one came with a side of miso soup and kimchi only. The rice didn't crisp up when I mixed it around the pot, but overall the flavor was good.“
“We were in as a group of six and treated our friends who have been amazing helping us move to our new condo nearby and puppy sitting the past half year.We had enough people to make a reservation so waiting was minimal despite the weekend.The atmosphere was on the loud side, music and TV wise so not a lot of conversation (but how much taking when there’s SO much food anyways, I guess?). The variety was pretty good; a nice mix of fresh veggies, decent meat and seafood and lots of fun bits like wok fried peanuts and sesame balls to round out the usual sauces and fruit. The service was good, we got our orders in and everything arrived pretty fast.We did get stuck on a table without the conveyer belts so we didn’t exactly get the immediate satisfaction of grabbing what caught our eye but it was fine as a one off.“
“Mandoo is the bomb.. there is not alot of seating so make sure to secure a seat before you order! The jajang rice is what we got. The sauce was not alot tbh, but the egg on top made it just fine!! They give you extra soup to enjoy the food even better!!!“
“I recently had lunch at Bay Pocha in San Francisco and it was a fantastic experience. I ordered the Galbi and Soft Tofu Soup. The Galbi was just amazing – it was tender, marinated perfectly, and cooked just right. It’s clear they use high-quality ingredients. The Soft Tofu Soup was the perfect comfort food, with a rich, savory broth that was both hearty and flavorful.The atmosphere of the place added to the dining experience. It was cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot for both friends and family. Service was also top-notch. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive.I'm definitely coming back and would recommend Bay Pocha to anyone looking for delicious Korean food in SF. It’s a gem that’s worth checking out!“
“Looking for Korean places in the neighborhood and was delighted to find this gem! They are super accommodating and made several dishes vegan for us. I really appreciated them asking about food allergies as well. Rice cakes, soft tofu soup, and bibimbap were all stellar. Highly recommend!!Vegetarian options: Chefs were very accommodating and happy to modify dishes and make them without fish/meat/eggs“
“The bulgogi street tacos at this restaurant offer a delightful fusion of Latino and Asian flavors. The succulent bulgogi is complemented by creamy crema and refreshing cilantro, creating a harmonious blend. Served with chips and lime on the side, the dish presents a thoughtful combination of textures and tastes. Highly recommended for those seeking a unique Latino x Asian fusion experience.Additionally I got “snow ice” as a dessert. It was described as a vanilla frozen dessert in a pouch. Similar to those apple sauces in a pouch that has a twist able pouch. It was delicious and creamy. I recommend you wait about 5 minutes before consuming to let it thaw. Lastly I had a dead phone and they charged my phone in the back and I appreciated that so much while I had my meal. I will definitely be returning.“
“Wow, what a hidden gem! I recently visited Jar Jang Geum Tofu House and was blown away by the delicious and varied menu options.First, the Bulgogi (thinly sliced marinated beef) was cooked to perfection - tender and flavorful. The short ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and richly flavored. The fried chicken wings were crispy and spicy, just the way I like them. But the real standout was the Bimbimp Bap with beef in a Hot stone Bowl - the beef was tender and the rice was cooked to a perfect crisp on the bottom. And the Tofu Soup was creamy and comforting. Each dish was expertly prepared and presented. Highly recommend this restaurant for a taste of Korea in Daly City.“
“Came here with a large group of friends so I didn't get the experience the conveyer belt. Nonetheless the selection was great and everything was tasty. The service was attentive and checked on us often. Will need to return to experience the conveyer belt soo.“
“It’s great to have this Korean option in San Bruno. Water is self service with tiny cups. There were only 6 bonchon dishes. Some restaurants have 10. Food was otherwise pretty good including Spicy Squid. Service was perfunctory. For the pancake, they don’t cut it for you, but leave you a butter knife.“
