“This place is legit, authentic Korean food. The outside looks unassuming, and quite possibly easy to pass by, but the dishes I’ve tried have been on point especially for being a hole in the wall. Classic Korean dishes done right without being made overly sweeten or watered down like a lot of places these days. Recommend!“

“Yubu-Yubu isn't your average food court restaurant. The friendly staff goes above and beyond to make your experience fantastic. They were incredibly helpful with explaining the menu and offering suggestions based on my taste. I ended up trying the Garlic Butter Shrimp, Torched Salmon, Grilled Eel, and Garlic Butter Mushroom, and let me tell you - everything was phenomenal!

The Garlic Butter Shrimp was bursting with flavor, the Torched Salmon was perfectly cooked with a lovely sear, the Grilled Eel was melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the Garlic Butter Mushroom was a savory vegetarian option I highly recommend. Each dish was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.

But what truly elevates Yubu-Yubu is the amazing service. The staff is attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. They made my food court lunch feel like a special occasion.

If you're looking for a delicious and satisfying meal with top-notch service, look no further than Yubu-Yubu! You won't be disappointed.

“Yukgaejang (spicy beef brisket stew with glass noodles) was solid! Large portion too! I didn’t even finish my rice. It even comes with some banchan. I had food coma for a few hours on the recliners afterward 🤣

I thought it was a fair price for the convenience of not leaving the sauna. I like that it is not expected to tip, since you bus your own table. That makes it extra fair!“

Bulgoki Kim Chi fried rice (K17 on menu) was out of this world! I usually get the bibimbop, but I wanted to try something different today. So glad I did. Also had the seafood pancake. Absolutely fabulous!

Parking: In food court so definitely casual dining.“

“We tried this place for the first time and it did not disappoint! We were originally nervous because of the high price point, but it was quickly justified by the quality of the food.

The fried chicken from Combo A had a light crunchy exterior, and the meat was juicy, hot, and succulent. The chicken was perfectly cooked.

The waffle fries were crunchy and slightly spicy on the outside, and fluffy on the inside. Order them as fresh as possible so it’s at its peak crunchiness.

The chicken sandwich was AWESOME. The bread was sweet which paired well with the spicy Mango Habanero sauce that we selected on the chicken. While it was on the pricey side, it was large. Worth it!!

The soy garlic sauce was sweet yet garlicky. It was really flavorful. The Seoul Buffalo sauce however, was not good. It was too tangy, and tasted like Franks Red Hot Sauce despite all of their sauces being house made.

Overall we’d HIGHLY recommend this place as a place to splurge when treating yourself to some awesome fried chicken 😍😍😍“

“INSIDE OF H-MART. Ive come here a lot since the remodel of the food court, each time getting the spicy pork with rice. It's always the same quality, and always exceptionally hot when I get it (in terms of temp. spice level a 6/10). Price is around $21 with a drink per person, and it fills my stomach. Always the same workers. Nothing bad from any of the times I have been here. (Cleanliness is always hit or miss, but H Mart staff do their best to keep the food court clean, it's really the patrons that can make our break it for the day).“

“Like their sushi(especially specialty ones). Usually, do takeout. My last takeout was delayed for 40 min(first time ever) due to absolute "customer jam". Usually, they are half empty when I order, this time, they were packed, and there was a line waiting too.So despite huge delay - still 5 stars.. They provided me a small table after it became available, brought some tea while I waited, and even added some extras while being absolutely apologetic for the whole issue. Have no hard feeling whatsoever - guys really try their very best.“
