Wow haven't had a taste of Korean food like this since I was in Korea stationed as a army com troop.

If you value great presentation and love food that looks as good as it tastes, Ahram is calling your name. This contemporary mom-and-pop restaurant is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal.
The lunch boxes are beautifully crafted, with sushi neatly arranged in rows and each side dish nestled in its own cozy compartment. Every bite is a delight on its own, and together they create a harmonious symphony of flavors.
And the complementary soup was a nice touch as we are new to ordering from their menus

We were super excited about Ahram when they first opened earlier this year, and was a regular customer for a while as the quality of the food was great even though it was pricey. However, our recent orders have left us pretty disappointed (service and flavor have went downhill) - given the pricing we’d expect the quality (and quantity) to be decent.

Absolutely perfect. I mean it. The owner and their workers are completely passionate about this establishment. The food is top quality, the presentation is superb, and even the utensils are top quality. You must try the premium box. It's worth every penny.

I placed a pickup order at this store, and later noticed they added $6.95 to the original amount without my authorization. This is unacceptable and feels dishonest. I placed my order in person (not through a self-order machine) and paid using Apple Pay. I have a receipt showing the discrepancy and have disputed the charge. Please make sure to double-check your receipts and payment amounts before leaving.
FYI, This was picked up order and I marked zero dollars for the tips prior to signing.

I heard good reviews from friends but my own experience was subpar. I am very familiar with Korean food and these lunchboxes did not deliver. We ordered a spicy pork and a spicy chicken. The pork had no sauce and the chicken was swimming in sauce, so much so that it ended up in the sweet pasta grape situation next door. What is with these semi-hard beets too? The sides were terrible. I expected some homemade kimchi from other photos and I got 2 starches (potato salad, pasta) which was very disappointing. The portions were small. From previous photos, I can tell that the box compartments was recently changed so there's less sides now. The beet compartment was super shallow like for sauce.
I'm not a fan and it wasn't really worth it for me. I'll just go to a real Korean restaurant where I can get a refill on sides and be happy.

Tried out a lot of their menu options and the food is mostly good. I would say the bossam is my favorite and I'll probably just get that since the other entrees weren't as strong.
Also some of the daily sides and soups were a miss for me. Wasn't a fan of the perilla leaf ,and I would rather get the beef soup instead of their seafood soup. It would be nice if they could post what are the daily sides/soup that way I know what I'm getting instead of playing roulette and getting something I dislike. But overall pretty solid for me and I will be back.
My rankings based on what I ate so far:
1. Bossam
2. Spicy Braised Chicken
3. Bulgogi
4. Spicy pork ribs
5. Yuk-Jeon

Cozy corner Korean restaurant serving no frills, high quality, lunch boxes (dosiracks) at a fair price. I appreciate their focused menu, which allows them to do a few things well. The beefsteak was tender and flavorful, kind of like a Korean take on loco moco. Will be returning to try more!

Tried Ahram Kitchen today because the dosirak and fried baby back ribs sounded tasty and were very reasonably priced… I was not prepared for how incredible the food is!!! Large portions, absolutely delicious, very well-packaged for take out. I wasn’t familiar with the banchan, but ALL of them were so tasty, and the seafood pancakes were a great choice. I will DEFINITELY order from Ahram Kitchen again, and soon! Thank you for the delicious meal!

I really wanted to love this place. It’s close to home and I enjoy Korean food. I was especially excited about the kimbap, but unfortunately, it was a terrible experience. The rice was dry and hard, and the seaweed was tough. When I picked it up with chopsticks, it completely fell apart. I’ve visited three times and tried a variety of dishes, but aside from the perilla leaf side dish, everything was disappointing. I don’t think I’ll be going back again.

When we first saw this place open, we were excited because we just don’t have any good Korean options nearby, and I loved the concept of banchan (side dishes) and dosirak. We’re always needing takeout on busy days for the family. I was skeptical though, I don’t get impressed easily with new restaurants because it’s just really a hit or miss.
This one is a hit! And thank goodness for it. We were first pleasantly surprised by the packaging, loved how beautifully it’s packed and the side dishes they offer are such a good variety- with every single component being SO good! I was worried that they might have smaller portions but they don’t, it was the perfect size. We ordered quite a large order today and got to try a bunch of different things. I don’t think you can go wrong with anything you order here, please go and support! You’ll thank me later. :) I’m excited to try their soups next.

Food was great. We also like the variety in the small dishes. We were stuck behind 2 big orders but the lady was so nice—she gave us a squid dish and a mochi to apologize for our wait. The mochi is so good, we will order that next time. Will definitely come back for take out again.
