“Sometimes you have to abandon what you know (burrito, hamburger, lamb kabob) and try something new like bibimbap (pictured) which means mixing of cooked rice with cool stuff mixed in. Seriously though, a few new places have opened up on the block: no knock on Rosy's Taco Bar, but you just might feel more satisfied at Nam Chon (Korean). The hot bowl/pot cooking technique puts their bibimbap dishes over the top. Come down towards the east end of South St. and check it out. The chef/waiter will give you a free appetizer assortment sampler for your enthusiasm.“
“Me and my family really enjoyed coming to this location H Mart in Philadelphia. Very nice and clean stocked with wide variety of fruits and vegetables frozen good. My only dislike was on the variety of fresh products that were made especially with the brown sticky rice with the nuts and raisins.. And also with the mochi frozen and fresh that was not available. Food court was really outdated. Prices were pretty high.“
“Dining in for a birthday party of 10 we ate half of everything on the menu. Spoiler alert: delicious. We had an assortment of bibimbap, each a generous serving of meat and veggies sizzling in the bowl, the Galbi skillet (slow braised short rib) and the veggie Japchae. Let’s not forget pork buns, which got us started.All together the meal was less than $30 per person and absolutely worth it.“
“We love SavoriBowl as our go to spot when we're a bit too lazy or busy to cook, great poke bowls, good flavor, and the owners are super sweet. The last time my husband went in to pick up, they recognized him and recommended their favorite sauce combinations which we will surely try next time. Their poke bowls are solid, ingredients have been fresh and solid, and I like how easy it is to modify and create your own bowl here, and you get a loyalty discount if you use their system. My only comment is probably not a popular one - it's almost too saucey sometimes - but my husband for example, loves the over sauce and he loves their sauce. For me - I generally love ingredients as is, so sometimes the sauce feels like it overpowers the natural flavor of the vegetables or ingredients - but I do agree that the sauce is delicious! My guess it he majority of people like a very saucey bowl, and I'm the exception. We have also tried their chicken katsu - which was very well made, well fried, to perfection. I hope for the best success of SavoriBowl and will continue supporting them“
“A great casual Korean spot in the spring garden! They have many lunch specials and lunch boxes, appetizers, noodles, rice, soup, and rice balls (to go). I personally really liked the flavors of the soup and was satisfied! A few tables are available for seating but can be filled up quickly. The cashier and other staff were very friendly as well!“
“⭐️4.5 - Amazing food that was incredibly unique! Only reason I can’t give 5 full stars is due to the atmosphere/ambiance.?Absolutely loved the food and wide variety of unique options.?Wonderful service. Restaurant was packed but we felt that the server was still attentive and didn’t rush us.? Get the mystery seltzers!! So fun. Happy hour deals are *okay* - 3⭐️. We realized that not everything on the happy hour menu is actually discounted.?Restaurant needs a better playlist! Or at least louder music. The atmosphere was a bit off. You could too easily hear neighboring conversations.“
“My husband and I had a pleasant lunch here the other day. We were immediately greeted and the staff explained the menu to us both. It was very clean and service was efficient. I really enjoyed my soup, the broth had a good amount of spice without being overwhelming. My husband also loved his sushi rolls and finished everything, no leftovers! We definitely recommend eating at Mari Mari, and will most likely return someday.“
“Wow! What a beautiful restaurant modeled after traditional Korean buildings! The restaurant was spacious, lots of booth seating, potentially great for large parties, free parking lot.The soon tofu dishes were fresh and delicious..the hot herbal tea was a nice touch.Highly recommended!“
“I usually come here alone because I like the process of cooking and the assortment. the food is always fresh and I have never had bad service. the staff is always attentive, they will change your grill in time and are always ready to help. I like this place. their range of sauces is also excellent and I can always make a mix of what I like“
“Had a perfect experience with my fiancée i looked at reviews here good and bad ive seen none of the bad reviews being right the food was amazing the service was amazing perfect had a good life and was very helpful in helping me understand the food how it mix and what goes together gave good recommendations and not every place does this right but help loads with my allergies and carter so well to it for the price was so worth it me and my fiance was so stuffed recommend a drink that was really nice as well i will say hands down best Korean food id ever had“
“The food is really good. I loved the kimbob and the steamed pork dumpling is very good too. I would love to go to this place regularly. Although they need to update their online menu and the prices because the prices i saw on here google menu isn’t what they have in the restaurant. Might have adjusted due to inflation - understandable. but recommend to the owner to update on google menu too.“
“Very clean and welcoming atmosphere. The food is fresh and delicious. We had Shee soup and traditional Samarkand style plov. I have been coming to this place since they opened and have never been disappointed. After they remodeled the place it is very spacious, bright and pleasant. The host and servers are very attentive.“
“Mouth watering corn dogs that wont make you want one of those sad county fair corn dogs. The variety and texure and cheese and the batter!....ugh its all like food crack and dont expect to do much if you eat kore than one cuz you will need a nap. The egg toast is unique as well and the flavors marry so well in your mouth. I recommend the ramen dog with mozzarella, and the original k dog along with the bacon egg toast and the ham and cheese egg toast.....I CANNOT LEAVE OUT THAT LEMONADE SLUSHIE! IT WAS DELICIOUS!“
“Cool spot! We visited 1225Raw with a friend after visiting the Philly Flower Show nearby and had a good time. Prices were a tad high, and they were out of some options we wanted to try, but overall service was fast and the food solid. Would come back.“
“Fantastic place inside on the Philadelphia Hmart food court.Their combo deals for 13 are great and they throw 12 rolls of your choice at you, with you choosing the three types of four that you get. The inari are fantastic too, and while the price is a tad high for a food court place, I feel like the quality is good enough to warrant it. Definitely more American style rolls for sure (mayo and katsu and so on) but delicious all the same!The rolls that cost extra are pretty huge, I'd definitely order those again, despite the added cost. You can see how big they are compared to the normal smaller rolls on the side in my photo!I come here on the frequent, and I can never complain about the food!“
“Definitely a hidden gem! I got a recommendation to visit Jopok Topokki, but when I searched it up, the Korea locations showed up first!We ended up with enough food to serve a small army since there were so many things to try along with the tteokbokki- the portions were generous and VERY filling. Everything in the Handmade Fried Set was perfectly crispy and not greasy, and the Fish Cake Skewers are a great add-on if you're extra hungry (we were stuffed).Heard someone call in to place a takeout catering order and I might have to steal that idea to get a party tray of Rosé Topokki for my next potluck...“
“The portions are big my bowl was really big. We also ordered a burrito, fries and a slice of the churro cheesecake. The fries look seasoned but taste like normal fries. The cheesecake looks sugary but it tastes like normal cheesecake. Definitely would go back and try other things. Very good flavor in the bowl and burrito.“
“You know how you find a restaurant that’s a hidden gem and you want to be your secret forever but you also want their business to thrive? Yeah, this is one of those places. The food is soooo good! They give wonderful portions and the best part is it isn’t expensive at all!I ordered the grilled chicken rice bowl with soy ginger sauce and I couldn’t stay away until I was overstuffed. This place is heaven on 11st. GIVE IT A TRY!“
“The only reason I’ve been going here since 2008 is for the wings—I kid you not; I violently crave them, at least once a month.Cons-- Probably the worst customer service, the servers aren’t very attentive to the customers.- the music is super loud- quite pricey, for everything on the menu.“
“First time ever at kpot our waitress was so kind, so patient. I loved they had pictures of tasty sauces yu could make to go with the food. The kimchi was sooooo good & the spicy beef. We got drink on the way out & loved the bartender.“
“this place is awesome, i enjoyed it a lot id definitely go here again, even though i dont think i did well with cooking the food, but I can't really blame the restaurant for that, because I'm just generally not a very good cook. everything they did to actually help prepare me for cooking the meal was done well.i especially appreciate the fact that i was able to get a fork when asked. i have dexterity issues due to dyspraxia so i tend to do poorly with chopsticks, and im glad i was given a fork when asked without anyone being condescending to me (something that has happened in the past before), so that makes this a great experience in my book!All in all I'd definitely recommend“
“currently writing this review while eating… hehe. amazing food and service. we got the sweet and sour pork and shrimp and the black bean noodles. omggggg so delicious and the portions were HUGE. plus our waitress was super sweet!!! will be coming again :)))“
“The first but definitely not the last time. My family of five ordered a pretty wide variety of items and each one was delish, fresh, packed with flavor. I had the veg pizza, spectacular! Service was spot on, friendly and knowledgeable. Cannot recommend enough!“
“I seriosuly drove 40 minutes more only to eat in here rather than going to other hmart. There Jjam-bbong is more like a Gyo'dong style, which has a very deep and smooth soup, loved their noodle and Tang-soo-yook as well.I highly recommend Kongnamul Gochu Jjam-bbong.It's a truly great tasting party. Gyodong Jjamppong has been well researched and the soup has a strong aroma and taste, but it's not too irritating or irritating and has a high level of taste bb.“
“I have been coming to this place for about two years now and I am definitely not one to write reviews at all, but this place really deserves it. I am a senior in highschool and the chef john is the nicest and humblest man i know. He is kind to every customer and makes amazing food (I like the garlic rice bowl the best). Today, he saw that i wasn’t eating and came over to me directly with my favorite order. I didn’t mention that I was fasting for the month of ramadan. This just goes to show his character and i hope that he gets all the customers he deserves“
“Christmas Day Dinner at So Korean Grill Restaurant.Absolutely pleasant surprise! Amazing food quality and portions!! Not to mention that their service was phenomenal!!!There were 7 of us(6 Adults and a child) entered at around 4pm and the restaurant wasn't busy at the time but soon after, all tables were filled w/customers. Lucky us! We ordered 6 portions of Pork Galbi and Naengmyun(cold noodle), a few minutes later Pork Galbi w/side dish sets hit the table and all of us were just...'WOW'....the portion and taste were way beyond our expectations. Throughout the dinner, a young male server and a lady(maybe the owner..)kept us feel super comfortable and served all the extra items promptly. We will definitely go back and try other Korean BBQ soon.“
“We ordered take out and our order was made very quickly. The chicken is delicious and crispy! (Though not the crispiest Korean fried chicken we've had). We ordered the honey garlic and soy garlic and I preferred the honey garlic slightly more. We preferred the wings over the boneless. I wasn't expecting to love the sweet potato fries but I did!“
“There was a 45 min wait at K- POT and the kids were starving. This place is within 5 min drive of Kpot and cheaper too. With 9 people we were given a private room and unlike most K BBQ/hotpot places that all members of the party have to order same, half of our party opted for Kbbq and the other half preferred hotpot. There are cameras in the room so might not be a good idea to try and mix up the food. Service was fast, and to be honest, as we pulled up to this place we almost left coz it looked empty and definitely doesn't have the more hip atmosphere that kpot has. Upon entry, the place is spacious and they have a good selection of sauces and sides for bbq. There was no wait for us. The prices are reasonable and if ever we are in the area, would return !“
“Excellent service. Delicious, VERY well prepared food. Love the Korean inspired options. Good date or double date spot. Prices are very fair - $3 for a miso soup which is a must, so delicious and cozy. BYO with a $5 corkage. Nearly a perfect little casual restaurant. Looking forward to returning!“
“Searching for places to eat in the local area and this place popped up. I don't normally leave reviews but I feel compelled as the food was absolutely exquisite. Cutest little spot with amazing food. Their cheesy corn is to die for. IT WAS FIRE!! Also the service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience. Our waiter Jin was so kind to us and made our entire night. :) Just annoyed I had to share it lol.“
“This Korean restaurant is an absolute gem, deserving of a solid five stars! The authenticity of the cuisine shines through in every dish, delivering a true taste of Korea. From the savory bulgogi to the flavorful kimchi, each bite is a delightful experience. The ambiance is inviting, with a blend of traditional and modern elements, creating a perfect setting for a Korean dining experience. The attentive staff adds to the positive atmosphere, offering helpful suggestions and ensuring a pleasant meal. Whether you're a Korean cuisine enthusiast or a newcomer, this restaurant is a must-visit for its exceptional flavors and warm hospitality.“
“As soon as we got out from the parking lot, we could smell the barbecue. What makes this place special is that they use charcoal instead of gas. The waiter cooks the meat for you. The cooked meat was put on the side so that it wasn't overcooked. I picked beef tongue. Very short cook time because they were thinly sliced. I dipped them in the sauce that came with the order. Rich in umami flavor. The marinated beef and pork was well seasoned and not overly saturated salty soy sauce. They provide several side dishes but the portion was very small. The lettuce was fresh and big, perfect to wrap the meat. I ordered hot Korean tea. Unfortunately, they served the piping hot tea in a plastic jar. High risk of chemical leeching. It's not a BYOB , you can buy beer there“
