I want to first say that I’m the most understanding when it comes to service as I am also a server so I understand we all have our bad days, and some people only make $ off of tips. As soon as we stepped in the door the man told us really rushed, “hello guys will you be ordering takeout? the kitchen closes in 20 minutes.” (it was 7:30 and online it says they’re open until 9). I told him dine-in if that’s okay, and he said “okay alright as long as you guys order quickly.” we sat down, he brought us all waters to start then asked if we were ready to order. it had been maybe a minute. i told him to give us another minute because i had just sat down and opened the menu. he came back around maybe 2 minutes later and asked again impatiently and i asked my friend if he was ready, he was still deciding, but i went ahead and ordered while he was still looking, so he rushed and ordered something afterwards. the man didn’t ask if we wanted something else to drink, which was fine for us because we would’ve stuck with water. the food came out really fast, but when he took it out he asked if we wanted to go boxes. i hadn’t even gotten to take a bite😭. he also told us like 2 separate times that they close in 10 minutes but it was like 8:01 so that doesn’t make any sense. what restaurant closes at 8:20? then at 8:04 he said they close in 5 minutes…he just wanted us out!! i couldn’t even fully enjoy the meal because he was staring me down angrily the WHOLE meal. it was awful. and the food was incredible, that’s the worst of it all. the vibe was even nice, beautiful decor and music. i felt so rushed so i ate really quickly even though it wasn’t even 8 yet and they supposedly close at 9. after a couple minutes, the man started to really obnoxiously put the chairs up and roll his eyes and shake his head when passing us by. then i saw him grab the tabloid thing to give us the checks, he came over and asked if it was going to be all one check. i said separate checks. he then already handed me to pay, which i already wanted to leave so i went ahead and took out my card to pay. he leaned over while i went to sign and put the tip, which as a server you never do, because it’s like pressuring the customer to leave a good tip. he went “mmmm” when he saw i didn’t leave a tip (i never do this btw, i don’t even leave bad tips, always at least 20%) then my friend paid (keep in mind we’re both still eating and only like 10 minutes have passed by since the food came out) and he didn’t leave a tip either. the man had purposely walked over to be behind him to see what tip he left. then after that he goes “mmmm. is there any reason you guys didn’t leave a tip?” and honestly…that left me speechless. that’s another thing you don’t do as a server, i know how shitty it is to not leave a tip but tip is optional at the end of the day, and he couldn’t even do the bare minimum of service for us. i had previously asked him for the receipts when paying, so then after that he stomped over to grab the receipts and threw them at our table. extremely childish and honestly made me laugh i was so shocked. my friend was still eating but i told him to pack it to go because i didn’t have the nerve to stay there any longer. never coming here again, which is a shame because the food was outstanding, but the service made everything not worth it.

I've tried this place several times and have been disappointed each. The food just isn't good. The concept is enticing, but the execution is lacking terribly.

This is not Korean food! The food isn't horrible, but nothing you'll eat here taste remotely like Korean food. The waiter came up and said "The food is great right". We told him we didn't get any flavor or spice that it was Korean cuisine. He got the owner/ cook to come out. She was super nice and asked questions about our food. We explained that we didn't want a discount, but it just had no flavor or characteristics of being what we came for. We have eaten Korean food all over. Again, this is not what you are looking for if you seek Korean food.

I recently visited Bulgogi Box, and it was an outstanding experience! Despite its small interior, the restaurant maximizes its space beautifully and offers lovely outdoor seating options. The ambiance outside was delightful, making for a perfect dining experience.
The food was phenomenal. I had the spicy pork bulgogi box, which was tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The spiciness was just right, adding a perfect kick to the dish. Alongside, I had a side dish of cole slaw, which was fresh and crisp, providing a refreshing balance to the savory pork.
Customer service was top-notch. We visited during a not very busy time, and the staff was attentive, friendly, and prompt. They made sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond to ensure our experience was enjoyable.
Overall, Bulgogi Box deserves all five stars. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy delicious Korean cuisine in a cozy setting!

Matt H served extremely rude, when I call he does not let me speak to manager and told me I had to sit” outside and wait all because I did not tip him on a takeout order. Unprofessional and rude. Also not worth the money for the amount of food given.

The food here is so simple yet so delicious. I ordered the Beef Bulgogi Fried Rice while my partner ordered the Spicy Pork Box. My beef bulgogi was perfection. Melt in your mouth texture and the fried rice wasn't overly oily or dense. The spice level of the pork box was perfect, not burn-your-mouth texture, but still a nice kick. The flavors of the box were tasty and not overwhelming and paired nicely with the white rice. The miso soup was flavorful but still light. This food seems perfect for takeout/doordash on a night in.The staff here is incredibly nice and welcoming. We went in at about 4 pm on Friday and were told that plated, restaurant dining doesn't start until 5 pm. However, they let us know that they would serve our meals in to go boxes instead and let us eat inside. We were so appreciative of this. Our main meals were served in to go boxes (which worked out perfectly because we didn't finish it all) while our miso soup and sweet potato cheesecake were served in a bowl and plate respectively out of convenience. The staff was attentive and let us know options for dessert, which we definitely tried.The shop inside is quite minimal and small but it is very clean and well decorated. It is definitely in inviting space. I saw some outside dining seating and I imagine that would be quite a relaxing vibe at night.
Pricey Stuff..Not worth the $$$..Not going back there again. Construction workers outside seeing what we were eating didn't go well with some of the girls in our group...

Beef box had good flavor, but for what you get, seasoned beef over rice, it's not worth $20. The coleslaw that comes with it has a pretty harsh flavor profile.
