First time eating here. It was amazing! Of course, I had to try the oriental fries everyone raves about. No words. I could eat them everyday for the rest of my life! I can only imagine what their own native dishes taste like. I'm willing to devote my time to try every single thing on their menu! Even their American dishes are fantastic. Highly recommend! You won't regret it!

Opened in 1975 this local favorite is definitely a must stop. It’s small and cozy but I love how it feels inside. It feels very cozy and welcoming. Reminds me a lot of the 80’s and 90’s restaurants because of the decorations and ambiance. I really appreciated it.We were sat down immediately at 5pm which is nice. 5pm on a Saturday could be a risk going out to eat and having or wait for a table. Our server was friendly.The food is really the best part which explains why it has such high esteem in the community. You absolutely must try the beef bulgogi. It’s incredibly tender and flavorful. I was also very impressed with my burger. It was simple but full of flavor.The oriental fries were also very good and the onion rings were crispy. We will be back to try the bulgogi burger next time!

Uber Eats delivery for lunch from this long-time in business Waco restaurant. Long ago I used to go with my wife and other family member almost weekly for dinner to this restaurant. Alas, probably haven't eaten here or taken out food but a few times in the last few years. Glad I ordered lunch delivery today. The potato and shredded chicken soup was tasty, nice small (but fresh) salad, 6 mandu, that were crispy on the outside, but soft on the inside with a nice teriyaki-liike sauce. And, the beef bulgogi, with Kitok's of version of fried rice was a nice size portion and great! The veggie fries were a bit soggy, which I was somewhat concerned about when I ordered them. Would recommend not ordering the veggie fries to go, as best served hot and crispy! They still tasted good, however, just a bit soggy. Good (large) lunch. Glad I thought of this place ...

I tried the Bulgohgi burger with fried egg and I asked for grilled onions . The beef patty had a sweet and delicious marinade. Next time I told my waitress I want to try it with bacon and cheese. She was going to order her first one that day for herself..And of course the Oriental fries were spot on.

Visiting from out of town, found out about this place on Reddit. We absolutely loved it! The customer service alone is incredible, greeted with smiling faces welcoming us in. The lip locker burger was so good. 10/10- make sure to add bacon and jalepenos… chefs kiss. Oriental fries had great texture, needed some salt but nothing ketchup couldn’t fix. Thank you!Parking: Parking located behind the restaurant

The Bulgogi and Kimchi were great.

We have heard that Kitok is a Waco Texas Staple. Beware. I had the double meat burger and the meat had a strange flavor. The "Asian" fries were dry and had no flavor. The other person in my part had the Chicken fried Steak and regular fries. The steak had a powdery coating, and it was DRY, the regular fries had no seasoning and old tasting. I really wanted to be able to leave a good review but unfortunately I cannot.

This place is a little slice of magical heaven! The atmosphere is filled with love and amazing aromas! The warmth from the people who work here is like no other! The Korean food is absolutely delicious! I almost didn't want to leave this review because we love this place so much we kind of wanted to keep it our little secret lol! Thank you Kitok! Many many blessings ❤️✌️?
