Came upon this truck because there was a "Lose Your Wallet" event promoting Apple Pay in downtown Burlingame, and Korean Bobcha was a participating vendor. Even though there were many people in line, they worked very efficiently and got the food out quickly. The lady who was taking orders was also calling our numbers for pickup, and she was a rockstar. We had a choice of three items and we could choose from three different proteins - bulgogi beef, spicy pork, sweet soy chicken. Cup Bob - zucchini, lettuce, garlic and magic sauces over steamed rice Bob Burrito - bacon kimchi fried rice, pineapple, sweet sour cream, lettuce, magic sauce Bibim Bob - mushrooms, beansprouts, zucchini, red cabbage, carrots, and lettuce over steamed rice with fried egg on top and magic sauce Consensus was that the bulgogi meat was the tastiest, and the Bob Burrito was the favorite. The spiciness of the kimchi fried rice complemented the sweetness of the bulgogi, and the sweet sour cream they put in was a perfect addition that wasn't too tart like usual sour cream. Korean fusion and "Korean Mexican" isn't a new thing, but Korean Bobcha does it very well and we really enjoyed our lunch today. As this was a promotional event, I don't know what the normal price is for these items, but I would definitely choose this truck again if cost was reasonable. read more

Bobcha SF - Bob Burrito with bulgogi on the left, Bibim Bobs with chicken and pork in the middle, and Cup Bob with bulgogi on the right - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

There are a ton of Korean fusion options around the city and sometimes it feels like Korean Tacos/Burritos are more common than Mexican ones. Hence, Korean fusion no longer gets the novelty star inflation and must be compared to other Korean fusion. I just felt this place was ok, hence the 3-star. Didn't seem as flavorful as its competitors. Mandoooo~ (sic): These are called potstickers on the menu, but they are clearly deep fried instead of steamed & seared (so they stick to a pot). Thin and long instead of typical dumpling shape. Average filling, but the creamy spicy dipping sauce was nice. Bulgogi Burrito: The smoky bacon flavor within the bacon rice really dominated the burrito flavor profile. At times it felt more Southern than Korean. A little bit too much lettuce for my tastes. The bulgogi was in long thing pieces; the meat was good quality but they could have used more sauce. Felt a bit bland overall, maybe kimchi should be a default instead of a possible upgrade? read more

Quite good Bibimbob, fresh, ample. I should dock two stars, but practicing moderation, I'm only pulling one. A huge bowl of meat, good rice, fresh veggies and an egg... but they charge extra for kimchi?? Let that soak in a moment. Well, maybe you could go with it, suffering only minimal shock, if at least it was a major addition and flavor shift for the dish. But you know what they give you -- gave me, anyway -- for a dollar? I'm not kidding about this: About a tablespoon. I took a photo. Seriously. Really. True. For honest. And that that airborne dusting of Kimchi costs you a dollar more. How much is a perilla leaf -- three? W T F , Dudes? read more

Ordered a healthy bowl from DoorDash (probably my mistake). It was mediocre. No sauce, veggies has zero flavoring and everything was just meh. I know it's a healthy bowl but there are other healthy bowls that taste much better. read more

I don't know what took me so long to try this food truck. I'm so glad they were nearby my office today because I was craving fried chicken and rice! I ordered the option with choices of two meats, rice, and kale salad (I think it's the Cup?). I got bulgogi chicken and Korean fried chicken for an extra dollar. They were both so good, especially with the fried egg, which was another $1.50. I didn't like the kale salad too much.. I think the kale could've been massaged more, but also it's really hard to beat the taste of fried chicken! The fried chicken had a sweet and spicy sauce, and the bulgogi chicken was delicious with their Magic Sauce. Service was really quick! There were at least 6 people ahead of me, and after ordering, I only waited no more than 5 minutes. My total meal with tip costs around $14. The portions were a lot for me that I ended up saving half for dinner. And I'm glad there wasn't a lot of rice... At first I felt it wasn't enough, but it actually was just right because I would've been full much faster. read more

Korean good. Korean burritos better. Seriously, whoever came up with the idea to put delicious Korean food in a burrito was a genius and I'm glad we have a few options for it in SF. When Korean Bobcha was in the Food Eaze spot, I figured I would give it a shot. They have the standard items: burritos, bowls (which they call cups), loaded tots, bibimbap, and KFC wings. While I was focused on the burrito, seeing the bowls and loaded tots made me definitely consider getting one next time. But I was set on a spicy pork burrito. What I got was HUGE. Definitely a deal for the price as I got two meals out of it. It's one of those burritos that even the dedicated would have trouble polishing off in one sitting. It also is a flavor ride - spciy from the spicy pork and magic sauce; smokey and sour from the bacon kimchi fried rice; sweet from the pineapple and sour cream. Now that flavor profile might not be for everyone, but I enjoyed it! I got about 2/3s done and saved the rest for dinner, which was fine. Would definitely come back to this truck when I want two meals. read more

This was a really great korean burrito (though I quibble strongly with the idea that kimchi should cost extra. it's literally free at almost every korean restaurant). I thought they did a good job getting a melty outer layer of cheese and the sauces are on point too. I would recommend standing by the truck to eat so you can sauce up every bite. read more

KFC Korean fried chicken is crispy and coated in a tangy and sweet sauce that had us licking our fingers! At $13 for 12 wings with a kale salad, it was also a bargain. I need to come here again for the tater tots! read more

Bobcha SF - KFC Korean fried chicken with kale salad - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

My all time favorite asian-fusion place in San Francisco. I can't express how much I like the food here! I still remember the day (like a few years ago man) I tried this place randomly. I have been hunting this place down for a year now and I'm so happy I found it. Similar to HRD, they have pineapple in their burritos..but OMG this place man. The SAUCE and the bulgogi meat, seriously blows every one else out of the competition! Came here with my coworkers and even they couldn't pass up this place! The tots + chicken looked delicious, DEFINITELY going to have to try them out next. Will be back + I'm looking forward to updating you guys on my favorites! read more

Bobcha SF - My fav bob burrito :333 - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

The closest restaurant to my office park is a few miles away. To compensate for this middle-of-nowhere location, they coordinate for food trucks to come every day at lunch. The Bobcha truck is by far my favorite truck on the rotating schedule. I've tried most of their menu and decided that the burrito with bulgogi is my favorite item on the menu. They are the tastiest. They are the best deal (in terms of meat to dollar ratio). If this truck is rolling by your area you'd be a fool not to stop by. read more

A little disappointed to spend $18 on a Healthy Bowl w/ Spicy Pork at the SFO Food Truck and find mushy pre-frozen vegetables. Broccoli, cauliflower and baby carrots seemed defrosted and corn was probably too. Three stars because the food altogether tasted pretty good, but I would expect fresh vegetables for the price. I could put frozen vegetables on rice at home. read more

Got the burrito, highly meh. Doesn't hold a candle to HRD. First, extra $1 for kimchi? Really? On the burrito - unnecessarily large, falls apart immediately, the lettuce is soggy and bland, the cheese is out of place, and half the ingredients are warm while the other half are cold. I tried something else here months ago, it was also too much food, and the flavor profile was boring. I actually gave it to a homeless dude. Give me HRD any day over this joint. read more

Food trucks at Devils Canyon, a Friday night ritual. LOVED the beef burrito "Cali style" with an egg. The Man got the spicy pork tacos. We split both, I'm so happy. Korean food and Pineapple lager, thank you mam! Ps. Cali Style has tator tots with cheese instead of rice...hella yes. Ate too fast to get a photo. read more

Great Korean food in a truck! I tried their Bi Bim Bop, and it was deliciousness in a box! Mashisseyo! Their potstickers were different, rectangles with a little hot sauce on them. Meh. I would like to go back and try some other goodies, though! Found them in the Soma Food Truck area, 428 11th street, on Halloween night. They were participating in Truck or Treat. But I think they are based in South San Francisco. Kam sa ham nida! read more

Bobcha SF - Bi bim bop - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I can see why the reviews are great! I highly recommend the bibimbop with KFC (extra $1 charge). The portion is generous for the price and you don't quite feel as guilty eating it since they give you lots of veggies-it's filling but not heavy. My only complaint would be that they could maybe give a bit more rice since it's cheap but overall the proportions were nice. The KFC was soooo good! I got the sweet and spicy sauce and the chicken was hot out of the fryer with just the right amount of spice. I would pass on the passionfruit tea. I was disappointed to see that it came straight out of a bottle, tasted more like lychee(?) and was a whopping $4! In general food trucks are overpriced and the food can be disappointing but this one is a winner! Im looking forward to trying other items on the menu. read more

It's been a while since I last wrote my review for Bobcha, so I figured it'd be worth writing a update since I've stopped by a few more times to try their other menu items. I really like how they've completely expanded their menu and added more options to customize their food items. Now they have burgers, tacos, and kimchi fries, and even nachos!! I've had their Cup Bob and their Bulgogi Burger. Both were pretty good and pretty satisfying. The Bulgogi Burger alone is a hearty meal even with it being without fries. Bulgogi Burger -- http://bit.ly/1kuJi9e Bulgogi Marinated Beef Burger with Cheese, Lettuce, and Magic Sauce This was one big and messy burger! Very juicy, though I didn't really taste the Bulgogi marinade from the burger. Where Bobcha totally won me over was their Spicy Bacon Fried Rice and how they included it into their Bobcha Tacos. Bobcha Tacos with Bulgogi Chicken -- http://bit.ly/1reZ86p 2 soft tacos with spicy bacon fried rice, choice of meat, lettuce, magic sauce, and onion. Because they included their spicy bacon fried rice, it definitely gave these tacos more substance and they didn't skimp on the meat which was awesome. Every bite was full of bulgogi chicken and spicy bacon fried rice. No fillers. I'm definitely coming back for more of these! I'm glad to see that Bobcha has made these additions to their menu. It may be jumping the shark a little bit, but their flavors still very unique to differentiate themselves from all the other Asian fusion food trucks out there. read more

This is one of my favorite food trucks! I always get their bobcha tots and DO NOT EVER REGRET IT!! Once in a while I head towards their rice plate and it does not disappoint either. Get the beef! Food is yummy. Their staff is super friendly and they are very efficient. Will continue to visit! read more

Very tasty. The nachos were pretty tasty. The fried shrimp were a little more standard and unimpressive, though still tasted good enough. I've had better Korean-style nachos and fries at other food trucks (whose names unfortunately escape me at the moment), but Bobcha's offerings were still fully enjoyable. Perhaps a silver or a bronze medal if we're making this a contest. read more

After touring the ship from Fleet Week, my friend and I decided to get some food since we were starving. Luckily, there were food trucks nearby and decided to get Bobcha. What was confusing was that there were no prices on the menu... Wtf? We ordered two bulgogi beef burritos and two drinks and the price was unbelievable high. The lady who took our orders was rude as well which made our experience unfavorable. The only reason why this isn't getting a 1 star was because the food was actually good. SUGGESTION: post prices. read more

KOREAN IN A BOX (3 stars) Sadly to report... It gave me the runny #2!!!! FOOD, tasty PRICES, decent SERVICE, quick All these Korean mobiles have the same concept, Korean burrito, Korean nachos, etc. The only thing that caught my eye was affordable pricing and good portions. CUP-BOP ($7.75) - they should call it box-bop because it doesn't come in a cup. selection of two meats and rice and veggies. Anything extra to add in is $1 each, I got the kimchi. The Bulgogi resembled ground beef/chopped beef. But it tasted fine. The spicy chicken was spicy only cause of the overly excessive orange hot sauce. The kimchi was okay, tasted good with everything. I wish there was room to mix it together because I had to dig around just to get to the rice and veggies at the bottom. Great portion, just condensed in a tiny box. Will I be back? Sure, only if someone can hand me some Cottonelle wet-wipes. Until the next review.... read more

I tried this food truck for the first time yesterday. They came over to Foster City. Anyways, I love Bibibom bowl , #1 on there menu. I think that is how you spell it , well the food had no taste to it . I even put extra sauce on it , thinking probably the spicier the better but wrong . I had about 5 bites, It was just tasteless. I will not try this place again, if I want Korean food I will just drive 5 mins. From my job and have their delicious food! I was disappointed in this food! read more

Decent food truck, more like Korean fusion food, with burritos, tacos, and rice bowls filled with your choice of meat. As with normal food trucks, they are low in fresh vegetables, so whenever I do get food from here it's my "splurge day" or "bad decision day". I like the variety of items they have - the marinade on the meats are decent, and the portions are quite large. Most of them come with their magic sauce, which is quite sweet. In general I find their food not spicy enough unless I add extra hot sauce - which isn't a crime, since it's more accommodating that way - but I do like my Korean food spicy. read more

Got cha. Two gigantic tacos overflowing with spicy chicken and lettuce. Fried rice too if you are into it. Less a taco and more a meal. Generous in size and flavor. Well worth the $5 for the pair. Got more? read more

Went to the food trick at Civic center today, and ordered the Cali style burrito. Unfortunately i waited until i got back to my office before i realized they just gave me the regular one. I heard the cashier call Cali style out but they just probably forgot. I think they charged me a little extra for it too. My total was $12 something after tax. I believe the regular is $10 +tax Make sure to check your burritos before you leave if you ask for extras or changes! Other than that the regular burrito is pretty decent.. read more

Here's what you need to know about Bobcha. Do yourself a favor and get the kimchi fries - they are life-changing! I'm a huge fan of kimchi and bulgogi beef and potatoes are basically my favorite food group so it was worth giving them a shot. I am SO glad I did. Bulgogi beef, kimchi, melted cheese, magic sauce, and hot sauce. Sweet and spicy and savory. So like I said, get the kimchi fries, you won't regret it!! read more

Bobcha SF - Kimchi fries! - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I'm spoiled on Korean food, living in the East Bay. The bibobap gave off a funny taste. I think the onions were onion, which is weird cause onions are not a normal ingredient in bibobaps. The meat was tasty, and the spicy mayo sauce that I got on the side was good, but after that there were things to pick at. The bean sprouts seems old and not clean. Then there is the white onion and red onion that gave a weird taste. The worst thing was the mixed greens, when I mixed it into a warm rice, it kind turns to mush. If I am in the mood for a rice bowl, Bowl'd is delicious. read more

I've only had Bobcha at SoMa StrEat Food. I wasn't crazy about Bobcha when I first tried it, but it grew on me. Bobcha is one of the more satisfying options at SoMa StrEat, so I kept going back. Utilizing Korean ingredients in some type of burrito or taco is becoming ubiquitous, but this type of Asian fusion never appealed to me. Their menu options resembled that of a Mexican eatery, since most of the items include the same ingredients, just constructed in different ways. Same filling, w/ or w/o tortilla, you choose a meat option, pay an extra couple of bucks to add an egg. It didn't sound too exciting to me. Then I realized Bobcha serves food that just grows on you, like how some people can eat an entire bag of chips without even thinking about it. You may not love chips, but you keep going back. Mr. Joy goes for Bobcha whenever we're at SoMa StrEat. No surprise there, he usually downs a bag of chips in one sitting too. Bob Burrito w/ Bulgogi Beef - bacon spicy fried rice, lettuce, magic sauce: I tried a bite, not bad. Then another, pretty good. Would I get this again? Yes. A little spicy. I don't know what's in the magic sauce, but it is pretty sweet. Either that or it was just the bulgogi that was sweet. Bacon fried rice doesn't sound so exciting. I mean, I put bacon in my fried rice all the time, but it is pretty tasty too. I just didn't like the soggy lettuce in the burrito. The burrito just worked because the ingredients were seasoned well and full of flavor. Although I wouldn't mind if they took it down a notch with the sugar. Cup Bob - lettuce over steamed rice, magic sauce: It's what you'd expect, pretty much the same thing as the burrito sans tortilla. It's nice to order something from a food truck you can eat with a fork and spoon. Kimchi Fries - bulgogi beef, kimchi, lettuce, melted cheese, magic & hot sauce over fries: Messy & gooey. You kind of need a fork for these, to be able to try the different ingredients in one bite. It was fun to try, but I wouldn't order it again. The spicy flavor and the tanginess of the kimchi kind of made the mixture taste a little like Frank's hot sauce. Does anyone else feel that way? Nope? Just me? Ok. So it's pretty good for street food. I won't develop cravings for bulgogi beef in tortillas anytime soon, but the burritos are tasty. Not a bad price at around $9. It fulfills what I look for in a food truck - food you don't usually find in a restaurant that you can eat on the go. read more

3.5 stars A good food truck serving Korean-fusion items, I had the Korean Tacos, which were very good...sweet and slightly spiced beef including a zesty and flavorful rice.

Love their bulgogi burritos and kim chi fries. The burritos have a good serving of meat and coupled with their "magic" sauce it's an awesome combo. I was hesistant to try the kim chi fries, it just sounds like a really weird combo. But once I tried it, I'm hooked. The truck seems to only make it's rounds in the peninsula. I wish it would make it's way over to the east bay. read more

Solid food truck for the amount of food they give you. Tried the Bowl and there's such a large variety of veggies and meat and rice and everything you need I've also tried the burrito, it's pretty big and packed with meat but the cheese and filling inside wasn't melted. But the overall quality of the bowl carries this to a 5 star. read more

The food here is DELICIOUS! But beware, it is definitely not the healthiest choice (ha ha). Actually, not even remotely healthy. The portions here are huge though, which is great!

We stopped by this place while looking for quick eats around the city, and got two Bob burritos.
