Kbop? More like K, BYE! Today is my sixteenth birthday party, and Im from the Rochester area, so me, my family, and a group of friends decided after viewing your menu that wed head there for the special occasion. I was SO excited as I havent tried Korean food yet and was happy to branch out from my usual diet. But today upon arrival, immediately I broke down, because upon the door, with NO warning online (online they CLAIMED to be open 11:00 am to 9:30 pm today!! and we arrived there around 2pm) there was a piece of paper taped to the door saying basically, sorry on vacation closed for like a week. How disgustingly upsetting. I was really looking forward to experiencing what I have heard was great food, but after driving almost two hours just to be let down and have to on the spot decide where to go (we ended up going to Mango Thai - a delicious restaurant I WOULD reccomend) Ive decided to never come back, as the management obviously doesnt care about their customers enough to let them know if theyll even be open or not! Thanks a lot, Kbop.

Its alright. The meat on both my and my husbands entrees was very chewy. Sure, it was traditional Korean type food, but believe it or not I prefer my homemade bulgogi. $$ for the price. Re the place itself its actually pretty cool. You order and your meal comes on a tray (drinks extra unless you want tea or water, thats free). Once you eat, you bring your tray up to this tray stand like a school cafeteria has. Then they clean it from there. So you clear your table. Its quite efficient! Each entree comes with several little dishes of stuff. For example, one dish was the best kimchi Ive ever eaten, that was my favorite part. Gamja Jorim was another. And theyre rice is near perfect. I dont know if wed ever go again but it was a fun experience.

This casher named ANNA (short Asian girl with LOTS of make-up) is super rude and disgusting. She is very rude when you order the food and She sticks her nasty fingers in the side dishes that are on the counter and eats them and put her nasty hands back to the food when customers and the manager is not looking. I caught her doing this and I confronted her and she is all rude and acts like its normal. DO NOT EAT there when the casher ANNA is there. Your food is probably contaminated by this nasty casher. who know where her fingers has been. So gross. she looks like she has herpes or something too. I liked this restaurant but ANNA is putting this business down. This restaurant needs to fire this girl or something.

This is so disappointing. I dont write reviews but I will as I need to have proof anyway about today. I go all the way over there in a uber and I order chicken wings and three other things to go and take them home. When I open it, it is buchimgae-something I hate the most. It ruined my appetite for everything else, resulting in a loss of time and money. They say they will make up for it next time. I dont really want to go again, but Im going to go there to see if they will keep up their promise.

"K-bop", more like "K-Why, dont i eat here more often?" I went here for my sweet sixteen and IT WAS AMAAAAAAAZING! I drove all the way from Rochester, and it was well worth the trip. The manager obviously cares immensely about the customers, (he gave me an extra rice, free of charge). (Also Mango Thai is Thai food and a completely different flavour and style, not really a good comparison). I had a great experience and I will definitely be coming here again. Thanks Kbop!!!!!!

I came here with a friend for lunch, and my first impression of the restaurant is very clean and welcoming with a modern twist. We ordered three dishes and they were very affordable. Three dishes came out surprisingly fast with wonderful presentations. All three dishes were very authentic and they were very generously portioned. Ive lived in mn most of my life, and I have to say we finally got korean food RIGHT. I think KBOP might be the best korean food in the state.

Disappointed because we were looking forward to a Korean delivery place. Ordered 2 rice cakes but they put it in one tray which really honestly look like only one order of it. Next time they should separate the orders even though its the same. Didnt have anymore kimbap so we had to call to make sure we have a refund on it. But I mean the rice cake was good but overall more disappointed. Just to make things clear Im not mad just disappointed.

Kbop is pretty okay, and there was street parking on a Tuesday at lunch, so that in itself is amazing. Food was pretty good. They have dok bokki, extremely good, perfect spice. There are weird things here though. Salad lettuce in the bibimbop. Cut up hotdogs in the Kim bop (oh hell no thank you). Overall, its good, and mostly authentic, but be ware, there will be American food surprises in your orders.

Nice atmosphere and delicious Korean food. There is an Asian server who is friendly and very helpful. Everything on the menu is delicious but not sure if its vegan or vegetarian friendly. I would recommend asking the servers. Water is self serve by the registers and you put your trays away yourself. Kinda like a fast food structure.

Living in Korea right now, the food made me feel like I was at "home". Our kids, adults who have never been to Korea, really enjoyed it too. Oh, and be careful - ample portions can be enough for two, especially with the banchan (side dishes in the traditional style).

Fun restaurant. I had the bulgogi. It came with 4 sidedishes. I wish I knew I could easily gotten more kimchi I would have loaded up on that. Check it out its a gteat food, prices are fair. This place will be one of the best restaurants to open this year.

Easily the best Korean food in the Twin Cities. Many of the older joints have gotten by on lack of competition. This place is clean with good service and decent prices. Quality of ingredients is clearly a level above the other Korean joints in town.

Last time I went I ordered the bulgogi and they barely gave me any meat and a ton of vegetables... which is ridiculous because Im paying 7-10 bucks for it. Quality was good but quantity was not.

They are new and kinda busy; which is good but they cant handle it well. Things cant be found, not produce enough. I have 2 dishes and I will go detail about the food with the pictures included.

Affordable, clean, friendly, and kpop at kbop. This place is a must go, one of the best korean food Ive had so far. Get your grub on and walk a couple blocks down for some bubble tea at Chatime

I waited for my food for 35 min before i got my refund. They completely forgot about my food and lied to me they were still making it. Worst customer service ive ever seen.

Nice spot for lunch! We got ours to go and were super impressed by their friendliness and generous portions of side dishes. We will come back again when we are in the area.

For a counter service restaurant it was pretty good. Our order didnt come all at the same time but it was tasty when it came. Try the wings, they were the best.
