I paid almost $40 for a small portion of Galbi, and they were so cheap with the side dishes, literally one bite size of kimchi, one bite of bean sprouts, and one bite shredded turnips. Even napkin is just one piece and they don’t give you more. I am a woman and the small portion of Galbi didn’t satisfy me. I call this place a total rip off. Can’t wait for KPOT to open in Quakerbridge mall on July 31st. You can get “all you can eat” BBQ and hot pot buffet (with meat and seafood) for less than $40!

The bulgogi beef kimbap was tasty, I also enjoyed my beef bibimbap but I felt there was hardly any beef in it. My absolute favorite however was the pan fried pork! It was spicy, flavorful and hit the spot. I know what to go for next time. The service was fast and I liked how tidy the restaurant was. Great place for some comfort food!

Very good and authentic Korean food

Food is really good here. The General Tso's Chicken is the best I've ever had. My wife loves the soup based meals as well. Friendly owner. It is a casual environment with the food of a fancy restaurant.

Nice place- good food, fast service. A little hard to find due to construction but worth the visit.

I visited this place with a foreign lawyer couple a while ago. However, the quantity, taste, and side dishes were very dissatisfactory compared to the price. The price has gone up a lot in just a few years, but on the contrary, everything was below expectations. The friendliness hasn't changed!

Good food. Very friendly owner.
Ordered the jjamppong. Pretty good but didn’t have that spicy kick even though I ordered spicy. Different noodles from what I’m used to. It was more of a thin udon style noodle, but still good.
Tangsuyuk was good.
Wife ordered the dolsot bibimbap and she said it was good.
Son ordered the curry chicken - he said it was ok.
Will come back to try some of the other dishes on the menu.

Been here twice now. I had mulnangmyun last time (i think) but cannot remember taste. Couldnt remember anything bad.
Kalbitang was as korean as it could get. Meat comes bone-in. Scissor is provided if you do not want to chew while holding bone. You get couple option if you dont want rice; udon noodle and pho noodle.
Banchan selection is fairly limited, but expected considering price range and quality of main dish.
Definitely one of the best korean restraurant on a budget. You know it's getting serious when there's old korean lady being chef of restraurant (probably owner too).
Do note the restraurant is self-serve. You pick up food and return trays before leaving. Tip is not required nor expected.
I have been ordering every week religiously from Asian Bistro for 8 months because it was consistently good and my local favorite restaurant. 2 weeks ago, they seemed to have changed chefs and cut costs on ingredients and the food quality suffered.
My favorite was the spicy Asian noodle cioppino, the shrimp went from 2 big shrimp to tiny ones, the soup leaves a lingering taste of vegetable oil without any of the spiciness and umami I previously enjoyed.
They also had a great Chinese pork fried rice that had bits of red boneless spareribs, it was among the best I've had anywhere. Now it is sad, bland, and colorless with just bits of plain pork, the rice is mushy, no taste of wok hay.
I had looked forward to ordering from here every week so I'm very disappointed that the quality has all of the sudden gone down.

You order at the counter and then pick up your food on a tray. Food was excellent.

I eat here as often as I can and every time has been a great experience. It’s a great self service restaurant where you can enjoy some alone time in a nice, clean environment and eat a hearty meal.
Some of my favorite entrees include the Spicy Asian Noodles, the Soft Tofu Stew with seafood, the Black Bean Noodles, any of the K-Maki/Kimbap, and the Sweet and Sour Pork, which is especially great because you can choose to have the sauce on the side so it stays crispy when you take home leftovers. The Hot Stone Bibimbap also seems to be quite popular, but I’ve yet to try it—no matter what you order, you can count on it being tasty and authentic. The portion sizes are also quite large for the price, which I appreciate.
Additionally, the service is great and the workers are all very nice. The owner is especially attentive, always noticing whether you may need extra serving spoons, baby utensils, etc. She also remembers every customer and their specific food preferences and treats everyone so kindly.
Overall, great local restaurant that I highly recommend!

Used to go to this place all the time pre covid but then they changed ownership and chefs and made the food 3 times more expensive. This place fell off so hard if you want Asian confusion go somewhere else because your wallet is not going to like you afterward
Quick, good food.
