I came by with my friends around 7pm and there was only about one other group there. We ordered on the kiosk and sat down for our numbers to be called. I liked the self-service aspect of this place, it definitely made things more efficient. We all ordered a different dish and they all tasted great! The signature beef kooksoo (large) was very flavorful and a huge portion of noodles. My friend tried the galbi jjim and he said "fantastic/outstanding, I'd definitely eat again." My other friend tried the king rib jjampong and he said it had a delicious broth/noodles but the meat was alright (but still good overall). He felt that the "regular spicy" was the perfect amount of spicy. I definitely enjoyed the convenience of this spot and id definitely come back.

Kooksoo totally won us over! Right from the start, the staff was super cool, breaking down their ordering process and even lending a hand with our bags after our engagement photo shoot – major points for that!They also surprised us with these cute little hand creams as a sweet wedding gift. It's those extra touches that make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.The noodles were incredible as well. Chewy and not soggy at all – just the perfect texture. We basically inhaled our bowls lol It was that good.Already making plans for a comeback with the squad. Highly recommend giving it a go!

A nice place to eat. Self service kiosk makes it quick and easy. The staff were very nice and pleasant. The food was delicious. The noodles and broth were very tasty. It is a little pricey but I think the combo gives u the best value.

Great spot for quick korean comfort food. The restaurant is self-serve so you place your order at a kiosk and then they bring your orders on a cute rolling cart. The combo meals are a great deal which include a big bowl of noodles, your choice of meat, a drink, and side of kimchi. My husband got the tangerine tea which was good. The staff is very friendly and were helpful in guiding us through the ordering process. The restaurant is situated in a complex with other restaurants, that has a shared parking lot.

You enter and there is a machine where you select what you want. The host then says you can sit anywhere you would like. The food is very good. Service is very quick on preparing the food. Everything else is self service.

A great self service noodle shop. The couple running the places are very nice and hospitable. If it's your first time, the owner will explain everything on how the place operates. The noodles are very fresh, and the rice dishes are so good. Parking is on site, if there's nothing available on the top side there's plenty on the lower level.
Get: King Ribs Jjamppong Woah. I'm not a jjamppong fan (It's a spicy noodle soup). When my family gets this dish, I usually stick with the black bean noodles or "jja jjang myun". My friend took me here because of how delicious the King Ribs version was. The King Ribs Jjamppong dish was stellar. The broth was "art" and the meat from the ribs melted off the bone because it was so tender. The seafood utilized in the dish was all high quality vs. the cheap seafood you get at so many other Korean Chinese restaurants. I usually reserve five star reviews for a place that has something you can't get anywhere else. This is that dish! It has converted me to a Jjamppong person. Also, it's instagram perfect because of the giant rib bone that comes with your noodles. When you enter, the resturant, you're welcomes with a nice clean asthetic. With cool looking ropes (noodles?) hanging from the ceiling. It's a little confusing on what you're supposed to do. Put your name on the waitlist first and only when the hostess says you can enter your order, do you use the touch screen to put in your food selections. They do this so that the food comes out when there is seating available and assigned. I found the services to be really good even if the concept is self service. I will wholeheartedly come back to get this dish again and also try some others :)

We went to Kooksoo to pick up some noodles on our way home from an international trip, exhausted and hungry. We were so delighted to find that they were open on New Year's Day. We ordered kooksoo, champong, binbim kooksoo, and spicy chicken noodle. All were delicious - distinct and flavorful, wholesome broths with silky yet substantial homemade noodles. We highly recommend ordering extra Kalbi - yum. The owners were delightful and attentive, too. We were thoroughly impressed. Though we live upstate, we will most definitely go back the next chance we get!!

Very homey no frills noodle soup! The workers were extremely nice even though it was majority self service. The ribs fell off the bone and the bulgogi, as part of the combo, had a sweet yet savory taste. Good price, clean restaurant and fresh noodles!
