“Oh K-Dog is a quick service food vendor within HMart Quincy that serves a wide variety of street foods and quick bites, such as Egg Toast, Korean corndogs, and soon to also serve Bingsu as well.

Service is very quick, the corndogs do take a while to come out though but makes sense as they make it fresh.

The corndogs are pretty good, lightly fried so the dough is crispy but still chewy. The fillings are decent for the price, and there is a wide arrangement of sauces and condiments to place that can enhance the flavor.“

“Dining out lately has been disappointing—expensive with mediocre food and service—so I rarely do it anymore. However, this restaurant was a wonderful exception. Both the food and service were exceptional, and the atmosphere was lovely.
​The fried chicken was perfectly crispy and delicious, and the seafood soup was full of flavor. They even treated us to a complimentary small drink at the end! What impressed me most was their honesty: they calculate the suggested tip based on the pre-tax amount. Many places nowadays calculate tips after tax, which I find unfair. It’s refreshing to see a business with such integrity. Highly recommended!“

“For spicy lovers, Gamjatang and Shrimp Papaya Salad are recommended! Must try!!!“

“Oh my god, this place is so good. It totally hit the mark when I was craving Korean BBQ. For $40 per person, you can eat as much Korean BBQ as you want. Not only pork, but chicken and beef too, and all the side dishes are excellent. I couldn’t believe how good the kimchi stew and egg soufflé were.

I am pretty sure the place is run by Chinese owners, so you cannot really expect ssamjang, but for this price point it is about as good as an all you can eat Korean BBQ place can get. Even though it is AYCE, the food quality is still very solid and I honestly do not know how they make a profit with how generous the portions are.

Loved it and I am honestly considering signing up for the membership. Will definitely come back again. But beware there will be a long line. We waited about 40 minutes starting around 8 p.m. on a Friday.“

“Incredible kimbap. We ordered one bulgogi beef and one pork. They made them fresh on the spot. Far and above the best I have ever had, and only $8 per kimbap. I hope these folks do really well. They’re so friendly and everything was outstanding.“

“We were able to walk in without a reservation at 5pm and sit at the bar (only a la carte offered at the bar). The food was fantastic. For 2ppl we ordered a bottle of soju, the large kimchi set, the small namul set, the scallop appetizer special, and the samgyetang. It was the perfect amount of food, and after tip it cost $98/person. As I was leaving another table got the galbi jjim and it smelled so good! I want to come back and have that.

The service was friendly and quick. We had a slight issue with the wrong entree, but they quickly fixed it.

One final note, as I'm scrolling through reviews, I find it interesting that almost all the Korean reviewers give this place 4 or 5 stars (myself included). That says something about the food and authenticity. Not saying everything is perfect (charging for banchan), but the flavors hit in the right way.“

“We are the Harvard Korean Association (HKA), a group of undergraduate Korean-American students at Harvard. For one of our major events involving Korean-Americans across the school, Seoul Topokki was our catering of choice. 사장님 was so kind and helpful in supporting us and the food was of course so delicious. A lot of the students rated this some of the best Korean food they’ve had in the area, and many of us hadn’t had such good authentic Korean food since leaving home. Seoul Topokki remains our students’ favorite food places and we are so happy we spent all our food budget here!! Thank you Seoul Topokki!“

“Honey garlic If there’s one dish that knows how to hit all the right notes, it’s this honey garlic boneless chicken. From the first bite, you get that perfect balance of crispy, juicy chicken coated in a sauce that’s the definition of sweet, garlicky perfection. The honey brings a rich, sticky sweetness that isn’t overpowering, while the garlic adds just the right amount of savory depth to keep every bite interesting.

The texture is spot-on—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and absolutely drenched in that glossy, flavor-packed sauce. It clings to the chicken just right, ensuring each bite is loaded with flavor without being overly messy. Whether you’re pairing it with rice, veggies, or just enjoying it on its own, this dish delivers on every level.

If you’re a fan of that irresistible combo of sweet and savory with a little garlicky kick, this honey garlic boneless chicken is a must-try. It’s the kind of dish that keeps you coming back for more—and honestly, restraint is not an option.“

“I usually like the food here but the service is usually terrible. I think if they improved their service, the restaurant would be somewhere I’d like to return to. This was my third or fourth time but this last experience made me not want to come back. 😔

The food taste/quality also wasn’t as good as I hoped. Mandoo ttuk guk didn’t have enough mandoo and too much ttuk - they should also bring a burner so the guk stays hot.

I think the waitress got mad bc I asked her to switch out a combo item for bulgogi which cost less than galbi - I was confused about why they wouldn’t want to do that.“

“Incredible experience! Wait staff were very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Food was cooked to perfection for us over a charcoal grill. Very tasty sides dishes. Next time in Boston we will definitely be back. One of our waiters, Jinoh, was in training and gave great service! Hello from Nova Scotia Jinoh!“

“It might sound strange to some, but I want to thank SGD for having some of the best rice in the area. A lot of restaurants go for cheaper rice options to save on costs. SGD using better quality rice really does elevate the meal, and helps it stand out among other Asian dining options. Thank you for this attention to detail!

SGD is also my favorite Korean restaurant in the Quincy area. The clam 순두부찌개 (soondubu jjigae) is my go-to!“

“If you're looking for truly authentic Korean food, this restaurant is perfect. All the side dishes were flavorful and tasted just like real Korean home-style cooking. The crispy chicken was excellent, and the seafood soondubu was rich and delicious. Highly recommend!“

“One of my fav places in boston. Been here multiple times tried almost everything in the menu. Samguypsal bokkeum was superb. It's chewy with the spicy taste that makes me keep reaching for to another bite. Chicken katsu and jokbal so worth to try.“

“Great place for dine-in and take-out! and awesome staff!!!“

“Great place to catch up with friends and families. Great food and nice atmosphere..“
