It may took 15-20mins when you order here but I think its worth the wait as their food tastes so good when you are craving for something Korean food like Japchae? This is the perfect store to pacify your appetite

The food at this place was really good, but the service was a bit slow. Surprisingly, even when there were no other customers during lunchtime, it took a while for our meal to be ready. I can't help but wonder how much longer it would take if the restaurant were busy. However, the delicious food is worth trying, as long as you have some extra time to wait.

This place makes great fast yet homemade delicious Korean food. It's the best I have ever had. Go try it out! The pork belly and spicy pork bulgogi cup bap are amazing!

This place is a hidden gem! Best Korean food with big portions and affordable price. Owned by a sweet couple. Best advice is to call and order ahead since I think it’s usually just two people running the place. Highly recommend!

Place is amazing with great food and wonderful food! The bowls they have here are outstanding and give you so much food for the price you pay per entree. Highly recommend this to anyone in the area and/or visiting the plaza and want to get a glorious meal.

Very friendly and patient staff. Prices are quite low, and the place isn’t busy during lunch. I paid under $15 for a HUGE bowl. Clean, quiet, and a great spot for a relaxed meal.

Wow. Came for takeout, got one of the best, crispiest pork katsus Ive ever had!! Brought a person who grew up in Korea and is pretty picky, and they also agree!! Totally unexpected for just a quick bite we wanted late at night! My pictures don't do it justice because we got takeout but hopefully you can tell how light and crispy it is. Not greasy, the inside is almost creamy not dry at all, perfectly seasoned breading, such that even if you didn't eat it with sauce it would still be delicious!! The Korean style katsu sauce was a great pairing though!! We also got odeng an ddeokkbokkk which were quite good! But we really want to try the kimbap next time because they looked so scrumptious in the photos and they were just like the ones they sell in Korea and have an ideal filling to rice ratio as they are supposed to! They were sold out by the time it was late night though, so we will have to come earlier next time! Additional bonus: the place was quite clean despite being a couple years old and run by a very small team it seems! A very cute simple hangout spot I'd love to bring a few friends at any time and the man at the counter was so kind and nice. Highly recommend, if you can't tell already!! :). The little flower lights and blue and white theme was so cute. I definitely want to dine in next time too!

This is an amazing place. The owner are so kind. I have been eating here so long, I would say I eat here once a week. That's how much I love there Cup-Bop. I have also had there kimchi fried rice and dumplings which are also amazing. I have recommended this place to my friends and they started coming regularly. I would recommend this place to anyone who would want great Korean food.
