SLOW service. empty on the inside yet it took 34 minutes to make a simple bowl. Worker said he doesn't care about this job and he isn't sorry for the long wait. Management needs to FIRE HIM. Friday march 29 12:30pm. Food ended up tasting like literal garbage by the way.

Taste of the Korean dishes is good, but the portions are really really minimal. No joking...I'll avoid...

I tried them twice. First time the rice was so hot that my salmon was baked.Second time I found a big black hair in it. There is no 3rd time ofc.For some unbelievable reason my husband still wants to eat there so I went to PokeChop to get my bowl and my husband ordered a Bowl Eater. We are informed that we could not eat there because I was eating PokeChop (there is no label, so pretty much sure whoever saw us eating didn't know what I was eating and would think the restaurant had customers, it was pretty dead). I think they lost the opportunity to ask why I rather to go to PokeChop than eating their food. Anyway, don't worry about me we will be at PokeChop.

We had the bowls and the ramen. The bowls were delicious, I thought the ramen was pretty good. I don’t have it often so i don’t have much to compare, my girl said it was just okay. She’s a ramen fan, so if you’re big on ramen I guess it was just okay.Bowls were delicious. She had salmon and crab salad, and I had spicy tuna, crab salad and salmon. We put on all the toppings. Amazing.The guy who was working wasn’t very friendly. It was about 9:30 and close to closing so I can understand if he was ready to go home. But, he said the ramen takes a bit to make and he has other online orders so he’s going to do those first. So we had to wait while he did other orders first, so one less star for that. We were there in person, I think we should’ve been prioritized.Food wise it would be 5 stars.

The worker of place was putting food in a bowl without wearing gloves , spilled the soy sauce while filling up the to go cup and handle it to me without even cleaning his hands and a cup . For a price of a small bowl we got a tiny , not even small .. only good thing about the place that they have glass noodle as an option .

Food was ok but very small portions, and service was lacking a lot. The employee said literally nothing other than answering questions with one word answers, and there was no music or anything in the store so it felt very awkward. They were low/out of a lot of items. During the transaction, was told the total was $16 flat, gave my card but was never offered a receipt, credit card said it was charged $16.86 sooo not sure what that was about... Been a few times before and it was a little more pleasant than this, but probably won't be back

Intriguing idea poke with Korean meats like bulgogi. The problem was there was only one person working who I think was working on other orders or something because despite us being the only customers he kept going to the back and coming back several minutes later. It took almost 20 minutes for 3 bowls.

Great portions, fresh ingredients and delicious! The owner is a young guy who was providing such exceptional service I commented, “ you are a great employee” to which he indicated he owned the place.

Simple menu with good food! Great after beach day to feel full. I get half rice half salad and poke/Korean meat. Great! The guy at the front was very friendly.

Best poke bowl I have had so far in my life!Freshness, flavor, lucky today to have perfectly ripe avocado and mango, and perfect spicy tuna. Gray ginger, generous amounts of stuff, nice chef/owner. Also tried the Bulgagi beef and noodles and also one of the best I have had. Looking forward to coming back.

This place is SO underrated. A bowl with 2 proteins is $15 and you get soooo much food. Huge scoops of proteins, good toppings, great sauces. And the workers were so nice. 10/10
