Um ma son Arirang Korean Kitchen

The hostess seems like she’d rather not have any customers come in. So, I will never visit this place ever again.

Their kalguksu is my absolute favorite soup of all soups, particularly the chicken. The best kind of chicken soup :) The dumplings here are also delicious. I hope they stay in business for years to come, as there really aren’t any other good kalguksu places here in Dallas.

I visited Um Ma Son Arirang Korean Kitchen in Carrollton and really enjoyed the food! Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and flavorful — just like a home-cooked Korean meal. The portions were generous, and the side dishes were a great complement to the mains.
Overall, a great spot for authentic Korean comfort food in Carrollton. I’ll be back!

Disgusting service from a young cashier girl and with very disrespectful mouth. I bought something but since I felt so bad from her mouth and attitude, I demand a refund and told her I will never return and she still was mouthy with disrespect until the end. She just couldn't shut up. Unbelievable!

Best Hand cut noodles in Dallas. Nothing fancy here just great Kal Guk Su. They also have the best kimchi.

Absolutely no frill and a self- service spot, with absolutely delicious handmade noodles and dumplings! The noodles were delicious, there was a nice chewiness and bounce to them, I was tempted to get more! The portions were more than generous tho so I was very full. We tried the chicken noodle soup - broth was homey like it was hugging me on a cold day , it was so comforting. We also got the savory sesame noodle soup and I’ve never had any thing quite like it! If you like sesame flavor - this was pretty tasty. Wish they had protein options to add to the soups that didn’t have meat tho. We tried the seafood and kimchi dumplings and they were great - dumpling skin to filling were proportionate.

The lady in front is so rude. If you are the owner, I think you should close the store. This was my first time experiencing someone being angry at a customer. I had such a bad experience that I will never go again and tell my friends not to go there either.

Comfort Korean noodle soup for a cool night. Not much meat but warm broth was flavorful. Kimchi was pretty spicy compared to others. However, home made noodle soup has a large portion. We revisit this restaurant often.

Very nice

If your kitchen closes at 7:30, you should change your hours to reflect 7:30. So annoying walking in at 7:35 and being told no more orders when the sign says open until 8:00pm.

Food is good. Self-serve and very outdated atmosphere but I would return for the food.

A very quaint, no frills noodles restaurant! My husband and I were wanting something comforting for dinner and stumbled upon this place. You do order at the counter, where you will be handed a numbered buzzer. Once it buzzes, you can pick up your food at the counter. Cutlery, water, and all other seasoning items are off to the side and it is self-serve. We ordered the handmade noodles in chicken broth, handmade noodles with dumplings, and a side of steamed pork dumplings. All of it was warming and delicious. It is definitely slurping noodles! I like how the noodles were chewy and a bit bouncy. The pork dumplings were flavorful and decently sized as well. I do love the kimchi here and it’s refreshing eating it with the warm noodles and broth. I believe you can also purchase a jar of your liking of their kimchi.

It does get busy around dinner when we went so plan accordingly. I also think this is better at the restaurant than to have it as take-out. Overall, it’s a must-try and we will definitely be back to try the other noodle options!
