Got this on Uber eats. Wasn’t bad but also not great. Super mushy overdone rice, too much slaw and cold dry bulgogi.

I rate based on price to quality. This place is $1-3 too expensive but the food is amazing.

I was in town for a concert and went to the market to get food for the evening, but after eating my bowl I wanted to move to DC so that I could eat this every day, no lie!
The chicken and pork were so flavorful! The kale slaw and pickled cabbage were so fresh, and all the toppings were just perfect!
If I could eat this once a week I would be so happy...
Thank you guys for being so nice to your customers, we appreciate you and your delicious food.

Hola Beautiful People,

There was tacos in this bag. I swear to you. Alas, the smell hit me. And then the hunger and by the time I got done licking my fingers I was like, "??‍♂️" I didn't take a picture.

Fat kid activities when you're only sorta a food blogger.

At anyrate, whatever you order you can't go wrong. The Bulgogi taxos are an exceptional fusion of cultures, cuisines and taste buds experiences.

I really like this place. Today is my second time here. Yesterday I door dashed a bowl & it was so delicious that I decided to eat it again a second night in a row. However, I am so focused because on door dash with delivery fees, tip, etc I paid $26. When I went in person tonight, I expected it would be cheaper since I picked it up but it turned out to be $31(more expensive). That’s pricey for a bowl that I can finish in one sitting. I feel ripped off because the prices weren’t consistent two days in a row. I hope someone can explain this.

Takorean Review: Fast and Flavorful Korean Tacos

Located in Union Market, Takorean offers a unique "Chipotle-style" concept for Korean tacos, making it a great option if you're craving quick Korean flavors. They're usually open later than most other stands in the market, adding to their convenience. Overall, it's a good spot for fast and tasty Korean food.

TLDR: Food and service are ok at best.I ordered fried chicken tacos, I discovered at home the tacos were made with fried fish instead. Drove back and they happily remade the tacos, but were reluctant about trying to compensate me for the wrong food and the two drives it took for me to go up there and back home a second time. I called before I went and was told by the MANAGER who wasn’t working to ask and they’ll give me a free dessert or appetizer. I finally got my food and a small piece of cake as compensation and *drumrollll* the tacos were very mid. The chicken was dry and clearly unseasoned, just battered and fried. I expected more because of the ratings, but there’s nothing special or magnificent about this place. The tacos weren’t nasty, but I can’t really say I enjoyed them either. The Oreo cake was nasty, overall a waste of money.

You can get your food fast. (Update) for some reason I kept the water bottle that I got there

Vegetarian options: Of course there are vegetarian options. why wouldn't there be.

Wheelchair accessibility: The doors to the place are low to the ground.

Stopped by on a very busy Saturday afternoon (Dec 23) and Edwin gave great advice and customer service. He suggested I get the three taco combo. Be sure and ask the server for TaKorean's flavor picks! They've got killer combos ready. I savored three soft corn tacos, each loaded with different meat + slaw options. Topped 'em off with lime crema, Korean-style salsa roja, and sesame seeds.My fav was the pork and kale slaw. All three were delicious, but that one was my top choice. The flavors were very distinct. Next time we go to Union Market I’ll encourage the family to try it. We will be back.
