It was like the server was avoiding us. We kept trying to get his attention but it was no use. He kept going back to the kitchen. My husband finally got up from the table and waited for him to come out of the back and asked for the bill and it still took him 10 minutes to bring it. It then took us another 20 minutes just for him to pick up the bill from us. We've never had such bad service. Usually servers can't wait for you to leave so they can have another customer take your place. Everyone else that got there after us already left. No apology from him either.

I finally tried Surah Korean BBQ & Cuisine in the Dr. Phillips area. I had always heard it was more…read moreof an upscale, high-end spot, but their lunch specials are actually incredibly reasonable. I ordered the $18 Bulgogi hotpot, and it was pure comfort food--the broth had that perfect sweet and savory balance that hits the spot when you want a cozy meal. True to traditional spots in Korea, it came with six different banchan side dishes, and they even offer free, unlimited refills. Apparently, the K-pop group ATEEZ ate here twice when they were in town for their tour. It really feels like one of those "if you know, you know" low-key gems where visiting artists and local professionals go for authentic Korean food. By the way, September is the low season in Orlando--especially with the Magical Dining promotion happening at other local spots. Because of this, Surah has decided to close for lunch from Tuesday through Thursday this month. This means Friday is your only chance in September to catch their amazing, affordable lunch specials. Keep this in mind so you don't show up to a closed restaurant!

You have access to a buffet which is plentiful on its own. I could probably ok if I had just that. But then, the meats you selected start coming and I was pretty impressed with the quality of meats. Everything was really good. From the meats I selected, the only one I didn't like was the spicy chicken. Loved everything else. Service was very good. Always had someone when we needed them. Ambiance was ok. Quiet Wednesday night. All in all, the price makes this a steal. I highly recommend. So glad it was so close to the hot

I was very surprised in a positive way eating here. I was in Orlando for a conference, and I was…read moretrying to get to a variety of different restaurants for various cuisines. I hadn't had hot pot in a while, so the idea behind KPot all you can eat hot pot and Korean BBq was enticing. I visited on a weekday in the early evening, so I was lucky not to have to wait for a seat. The restaurant is large and it was quite empty given it's proximity to Universal Studios. My waitress was delightful and answered all my questions. She was attentive but not overly in my space. We connected over a conversation about hiking, and I was generally pleased with the service. The hot pot itself was great. I went with a standard Sechuan spicy broth and ordered all my favorite accoutrement: two types of beef, enoki mushrooms, tofu skin, tofu puff, napa, bok choy, rice cake, and ramen noodle. My mixture of sesame oil, garlic, sesame seeds and scallions was prefect and evoked memories of hot pot from days of old. Honestly, it's rare to find and all you can eat hot pot place for such a good price $34.99 and a $5.00 happy hour mojito made this a surprisingly reasonable dinner. I would definitely come back to this location or others based on my experience here.

We had a hankerin' for some Korean food before we left Orlando. We (our tummies) are so happy we…read moreended up here for lunch. The staff is super nice and very attentive to their diners. The inside is quaint and clean. Not a huge dining room, so it isn't too noisy when trying to have a conversation. We ordered Bulgogi Mando, Dolsot Bibimbap with beef, and a pork bulgogi entree. As one can see in the video, everything came out sizzling and piping hot. The portions were generous. We were stuffed when we left. Just because this is a little spot in the Chinatown strip mall, do not pass up an opportunity to have some delicious Korean food. We will visit next time we are in Orlando.

A couple times a year, I get absolutely dumbstruck and shocked with how far a place blows my…read moreexpectations out of the water. BBB Tofu House left me absolutely speechless and wanting to order much more than we did, and we actually ordered a ton of food for only two people. The outside ambiance of this place is very unsuspecting. It's in a poorly lit strip mall in the Pine Hills area of town. Various furniture stores and other Asian restaurants and questionable wellness spas dot the mall, but inside, this place was beautiful. It was like a ruby encrusted coy pond, gently playing K-pop in the background. Very cozy. The service was incredible. These folks were so nice and patient with me as I asked them questions about many menu items, wanting to make sure I ordered the right things. The food came out at a very reasonable pace, too. Everything was hot and fresh and delicious. And the food, it was wow. Absolutely exquisite. Started off with the Bulgogi Mandu (Beef; 5 Pieces). These are a fried Korean dumplings, and the thing about mandu is that they are probably the dumpling with the most filling packed into it. A massive amount of delicious beef filling, a crispy wrapper with a fun little crimping for texture, and a nice, subtle sesame-type sauce. Very good. I also had the Tteok-bokki, my favorite Korean appetizer. It is a chewy, cylinder-shaped rice cakes (tteok) simmered in a spicy, sweet, and savory sauce. And it was delicious. It was also the largest serving I've ever encountered, so it got kind of one-note. I recommend paying the upcharge for the Add Cheese. Then onto the Seafood Pancake. Look at this dang thing in my picture. One of the best things man has ever created. An intricately crispy outer layer of some sort of dough, containing within a cheesy blend of seafoods, all sliced up like a pizza and coming with that same sesame sauce for dipping. This was Super Bowl food, my goodness. I got the Galbi (BBQ Short Ribs), which is another Korean staple. Very mainstream, but for good reason. These short ribs are sliced crosswise, slicing up those muscle fibers, and leaving behind thin layers of delicious, tender beef. Being sliced so thinly also lends itself well to soaking up the marinade very good. So delicious. I finished off with the, here we go, the main event, Dolpan Kimchi Bokkeum Bap (Kimchi Fried Rice) (Kimchi, Beef, Peas, Corn, Carrots and Onion topped with Cheese). They'll ask you if you want the egg. Say yes. This magnificent creature comes to you as a mound of rice in a screaming hot stone bowl, with the cheese kept away from it. Tableside, the man cracks an egg on the whole thing, and then mixes the heck out of all of it, allowing the egg to cook and the cheese to melt. He then spreads it all out against the stone bowl, maximizing touched surface area, creating a crispy cheesy rice crust along the bottom of the bowl, making every bite amazing. You read all that right. And it was one of the best meals of my life not at a Michelin restaurant. I'm actually going to petition this place as a Bib Gourmand. It was that high quality. I'm in love.

While browsing for late night options, I came across this spot conveniently located near Universal…read more The restaurant had plenty of parking outside. After entering inside, we were seated quickly and got our waters. The interior is quite cozy and super clean. We browsed the menu and started off with egg drop soup and then ordered the Thai basil fried rice, Szechwan chicken and Kung pao chicken. The egg drop soup was pretty good but wish it was more heated up. The Thai basil fried rice was really good and loved the amount of chicken it came with. It was super flavorful and not too greasy which was nice. The Kung pao chicken was also really good and came with tons of chicken which was a nice touch. The Szechwan chicken was alright but loved that it came with so many veggies. It appears that this is a family run business and everyone was super nice and loved that the owner checked in on us multiple times. I highly recommend this spot if you're in the area and looking for a Chinese takeout spot!

They recognized me and one employee said to another employee "His order did not come through again." -- meaning they recognize me. I have had their food numerous times and enjoy it. But I refuse to wait again for a confirmed order. I suggested that they check their ordering system because they are going to lose business. The response was "it's only you". No "please wait, we will rush your order." Well, this only you (a loyal customer) will be finding a new restaurant to give my business to. What a shame.

One of the few Asian restaurants open after the parks. It was pretty busy when we came and it…read moreseemed like others had just came from the parks as well. You definitely get bang for buck here. I ordered the brisket in original broth. The meat was very tough though. I'm guessing it's because it was the end of the night? I would order a different meat. The broth is very plain. I guess original- means plain lol. As an Asian I didn't mind it and wasn't surprised by it. Just a warning for those who might expect a beef broth flavor like I did. Bf had the duck ramen. It was very flavorful. The duck was cooked very well. We shared karaage. Or like quicklys popcorn chicken but chicken thigh style. This was actually my favorite out of everything. I could order this, a bowl of rice and a bowl of hot broth and call it a night. It was perfect, crunchy, flavorful in every way. I'd come back just for this. If we didn't have plans at the parks the following day, I would have taken them up for their bogo alcohol special. Hope to see them next time!

Came here due to being pummeled by Instagram influencers saying how good the food was here…read more I ordered the tomato beef noodle soup, cold dish cucumber, and crispy fried pork. Presentation wise, 5/10. The soup noodles looked nothing like in the menu pictures, in fact, it looked very messy, like someone had thrown together with bare ingredients. Immediately, I noticed the handful of shredded iceberg lettuce gathered in the center. First of all, it doesn't belong in there as Asian soup noodles don't use shredded iceberg lettuces. That's slop, I'm sorry. The soup has a ketchup taste to it, not like the typical tomato soup flavor, it was more sweet than anything. Unfortunately because of the soggy lettuce, it ruined the taste of what was left off the soup. The crispy fried pork and cucumber was better, but still for $9, it was subpar. Taste was 3/10 Service 8/10 Would not go back again.

Some places have the better ingredients out during dinner only or on weekends. Volcano has high quality ingredients out all the time. They have a HUGE seafood selection - I was in heaven. Crab legs, scallops, 2 types of clams, shrimp, mussels, etc. Many choices. They also have a wide selection of hot pot meats - pork belly, lamb, different grades of beef. Many veggie selections (napa cabbage, different types of mushrooms, sweet potato), as well as lobster balls, fish balls, quail eggs, etc. We opted for the Hot Pot, Korean BBQ Combo. It's only $5 or $6 more and you can do both Hot Pot and BBQ. If you're new to this concept, they'll explain it all to you and help :) The grill, at your table is really nice. They had many marinated meats to select from at the food bar. Also large selection of sauces and a visual guide on how to make certain sauce combinations. Our favorite meats were the chicken and bulogi. The food bar area was spotless and well stocked. If you have any room left after all that food, they do have fresh fruit and ice cream options also. They serve alcohol, specialty cocktails, beer, wine and soft drinks. I believe this was around $37 per person for the combo option. We'll definitely go back again. Just go hungry! Tables are limited to 90 minutes and they will charge you for food waste if you get a lot and don't eat it. We didn't have any issues with that, but just FYI - they have signs posted at each table.

As soon as we sat down, he asked what base we wanted. We asked if he could explain the process and he was so irritated and impatient. He walked away while we read the menu. When he came back, we had some questions and while he did give us a smile, he answered in an irritated manner. When we asked for spicy, he looked at us and said are you sure? We said yes and then he asked if we wanted it mild, medium or hot. My brother said hot and he again said are you sure it's very hot. We each went with a different heat level to be safe. Then we asked how it worked and he again, very irritably, waved us to the buffet area and talked so fast we were lost. The broth was so bland and the "hot" was not hot at all. The overall experience was underwhelming for most of us and we won't be back. One person enjoyed it and said they'd return. For me, it was less than a 1 star but since one person enjoyed it, I added an additional star for them.
