This place is absolutely delicious. Kinda pricey, but with it IMO.

Why the low rating? The hours are incomprehensible, and it's almost always closed when I want to eat there. This week, it's not even open in the evening at all.

There are self serve kiosks for cards and a window for cash. Overall the experience doesn’t necessarily pull you in. Lightly decorated, but without any interaction it feels a bit cold. I got the cheesesteak and it was a blend of flavors. Spicy bulgogi with melted cheese and some veggies that were cooked just right. Bread was also great regarding texture and taste. The food is good, might just take it to go next time. Also be prepared to spend around $20 per person.

Unfortunately, I can’t support Angry Korean anymore. The hours are ever changing and every time I order delivery (only open during hours I am work so I am unable to go in to the restaurant) it gets cancelled. I love the food but it’s too much of a hassle to try and get. Also after reading responses to reviews from the owner, I cant support that. Guess he really is an Angry Korean. Happy to return in the future if things change.

Easy 5-Star. I've seen this place for a long time and just went for my first time. Easy to understand the James Beard award nomination. Fries were crispy with a unique flavor. Sweet and Tangy Chicken Rice Bowl was exactly as described and just the right portion. The price is in line with any similar establishment....this isn't McDonalds. Interior is not much to look at but that is how I knew the food would be amazing. Kiosk ordering makes it easy. We'll definitely be back.

This is my new favorite restaurant! The rice bowls are huge, I get two meals out of it. The food is delicious and so flavorful. The Sweet and Tangy Chicken with a fried egg, and Mandoo is what I have gotten every time. It’s so good and I highly recommend!

This was my first time trying The Angry Korean, I’m my opinion the food wasn’t as good, it’s not bad but it’s not amazing but that’s just my preference. I still would encourage people to try it at least once because someone else might like it but don’t take my opinion and not try it. Price was really high and again, I think it just wasn’t for me so I don’t think the price was worth it. Atmosphere was chill for the most part. If you pay by card you order on a kiosk so not much interacting happening. Again, this is just my opinion and preference, I’d encourage people to try it at least once.

Save yourself the trouble and just read all the reviews and more importantly the owner’s responses. They say it all. I was excited to try this place because I miss the incredible Korean restaurant that used to be in this strip mall. The stench inside is barely tolerable even just to wait for a take out order, it smells like rancid overused and old fryer oil. There is no table service here, you order on an iPad. The chicken katsu bowl was drenched in thick sauces, making the lettuce inedible. After I removed the lettuce and added the kimchi that I had to buy separately I barely took a couple bites before I just threw the overpriced meal away. The breading was nice and crispy but it tasted like old fryer oil and I couldn’t detect any authentic Korean taste, just an Americanized, over sauced, bland dish that left me thoroughly disappointed. The kimchi didn’t taste home made, it tasted like it had been pickled for long past its prime. Overpriced, no authentic ‘Korean bowl’ elements, you pay extra for anything you want to add. Unfortunately for me this is definitely a place I would never go back to.

I recently dined at The Angry Korean and was thoroughly disappointed with my experience. First and foremost, the prices are exorbitant for what you get. I expected a high-quality meal, but instead, I found myself paying far too much for average, underwhelming dishes. The portion sizes were small, and the flavors were lacking.

What made the experience even worse was the restaurant's attitude towards customer feedback. I took the time to leave a review on Google, hoping for a constructive dialogue. Instead, I received an extremely offensive and dismissive response from the owner. It was clear that they have little respect for their customers’ opinions and prefer to belittle anyone who dares to criticize their overpriced and mediocre offerings. This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable in any service industry.

Overall, I would not recommend The Angry Korean. The high prices are not justified by the quality of the food, and the hostile, disrespectful manner in which they handle customer feedback only exacerbates the disappointment. Save your money and dine elsewhere where your concerns will be met with genuine consideration and respect.

Great flavors, the sweet and tangy chicken is ?. But the plate was half empty. I wasn't full, and I ate my first lunch 2 hours before. Now yes I'm fat and always hungry, but this didn't even satisfy me. I paid 15 dollars to be hungry still lol. I'm not Korean either, but if real Koreans saw how little rice they gave, they would think we are at war again. Absolute shame. Rice is like $1 per pound and I literally got 8 teaspoons of rice ?. They gave me more salad. It's called angry Korean because they are still hungry after, not satisfied Korean.

While the food is good, the place looks and smells dirty. And if you say this is a take out place so atmosphere doesn't matter then you don't know your customers. Because it's 100 degrees everywhere even at home people want to get out and sit somewhere cool and clean to eat their food. At least fix the A/C.
