    I loved the plate! It was delicious with flavor and had me full without the discomfort! Will go back again soon!

    This was a really good experience. I've wanted to try this place for a while, and I was not disappointed. I teetered between 4 and 5 stars, it's just a regular Korean BBQ place and they were a tad slow at cleaning tables, but it was great food so it gets 5 stars today. We only talked to one person for a brief moment but he was really nice. I ordered the spicy garlic pork bowl and iced coffee and my boyfriend ordered the crispy chicken bowl. I actually really preferred his bowl, although I did have to sauce the chicken because the breading is really bland. I'm sure that's the point, since they have some great sauces, and the crispy chicken was great with their signature sauce and the sesame sauce. Yummo!! The coffee was great, very much like a Vietnamese coffee, sweet and luscious. The spicy garlic pork was really good, but the bowl really needed some texture. The quick cooked zucchini and broccoli do add a little crunch, but there's not enough of them to provide different textures. My bowl had three tiny pieces of broccoli, so maybe if there was more of the veggies, or some green cabbage. When you're ordering, there's no way to request extra veg. Overall, the bowls were good, the veg was fresh, the sauces were excellent. The bowls have great flavor and still manage to feel healthy and filling. We'll be back, for sure!

    This place is very delicious. A little pricey but I justify that by making my meal last at least 3 days because the portions are large. I've noticed a quality difference between eating in and taking out. *much better to eat in. The Bulgogi Bowl is my go to and I highly recommend. It's card only, no cash and there is no phone to call and place an order which is a little inconvenient but not the end of the world.

    I ordered this on delivery, so can't comment on the vibes in person. But this was so good! I ordered the rice bowl with bulgogi beef and the seaweed japchae rolls. The bowl was a pretty good sized portion, and the beef was a great texture - not chewy, nicely tender, and with great flavor. The japchae rolls were nice and crunchy, and the sauce on the side really added to the flavor. I'm looking forward to trying more items from Burning Rice soon.

    Bimbimbap.

    The bimbimbap was so authentic and the best I've had in awhile. No place like this in San Antonio so I had to try it since I was in Dallas area. Not very busy when I went so service was very quick. The place was very nice and well kept. If you don't know what Bimbimbap is you should just try it if you like Korean food. Highly recommend this place!

    Adventure for a lunch. An interesting experience of environment, ordering, interacting, and presentation of the food. A few screens to place your order that allows you to scroll down to see what might be next. A lot of options and may not know what you will get if you have not experienced the restaurant. We both ordered the hot Bibimop bowls. My sponsor ordered the Shrimp as protein. I had the chicken and pork. The cast iron bowls kept the food very hot. There were 5 or 6 sauces to choose. It was a fun experience. We did not need the double protein in our order. We had plenty of left over take home. Add the sauces to direct the flavor you desire. My sponsor said she would like to return for another adventure.

    This place is the chipotle version for dolsot bibimbap and I'm all for it! We've been learning the hard way that Asian food in this area of the metroplex can be an extreme hit or miss PLUS this place is a chain - so we approached this place with caution. Luckily we were pleasantly surprised! The dolsot bibimbap comes out sizzling hot and the toppings are generous. Bulgogi is on point and it's such a good option to have japchae. And sure - there are some things that are kind of Americanized like the chicken bites and certain sauces. That being said, they taste good so who cares ? We love bringing our baby here because it's a big sitting area and they have plenty of clean high chairs and boosters available - plus there is just the right amount of ambient noise that a rowdy baby won't bother anyone too much. Ordering is all done on a touchscreen near the entrance and the servers wheel food out, sizzling hot! That being said, if I was any closer to Zion market or Hmart area, I would probably just go there for bibimbap. Definitely recommend if you are close by looking for something fast and tasty.

I hit the drive-thru and the service was excellent. I could even understand through the speakers! Nice displays of menus and specials. Looks like they even have a Thanksgiving package (hint hint). Lots of drive-thru ambiance. I ordered the 2-meat plate (brisket and sausage), and instead of 2-sides I replaced with a loaded baked potato. When asked which sauce, my eye started twitching. I dont like pouring sauce on meat after the fact...I prefer it baked and baked in. But...I told them id take their spicy BBQ sauce on the side. So...once I got home, I tore into the potato. It was HUGE so I cut it in half. The meat did not have sauce baked and baked in, but it was good. Really good. And then I went crazy. I tasted the spicy BBQ sauce. Very good. And went crazier and poured it over the brisket, sausage, and baked potato. There was a lot of food on the plate, so I saved half for leftovers. It was really really good and I'll definitely be going back.

The food was just as delicious, was good to have some Soulman's BBQ again. Their double barrel baked potatoes with pulled pork are second to none. Got our big bottle of Soulman's BBQ sauce, we were almost out, can't have that! And of course, you can't skip the buttermilk pie. This portion is bigger than we used to get! And the pie is thicker, absolutely delicious. Sunday never tasted so good.

    My wife and I visited a barbecue restaurant we hadn't tried yet, "Rosako's Soulfood and BBQ." (2816…read moreBrown Trail, Bedford, TX 76021) As soon as I got out of my car, I knew I'd found something interesting. The restaurant had a sign stating, "Electric vehicle charging available here." Just to the right of the sign were two Level 2 chargers. We each ordered two 2 meat plates, which included two sides. When we got home and opened the to-go boxes, we realized we had WAY over-ordered. We had enough for two meals for each of us! We had chicken and pork ribs, mac & cheese and flat green beans. It was very tasty with a sweet and spicy barbecue sauce. I spoke with the owner and thanked him for supporting EVs, to which he replied, "How could I not? It's what's coming. How could I not get on board?" He mentioned that quite a few of his customers found him on Plugshare.com and stop by regularly for a meal and charge. I had to Google "So mote it be."

    We decided to order from this restaurant through the Too Good To Go app…read more I rarely write harsh reviews, but this experience deserves every bit of criticism. What happened today was unacceptable from the moment we walked in. The place was visibly dirty and completely unappetizing. The back area was mostly hidden behind what looked like a shower curtain, which did nothing to inspire confidence. There appeared to be only one man working, and he came out only a few times during the entire 45 minutes we waited. Even more concerning, there was a child who looked to be about eight or nine years old wearing latex gloves and repeatedly coming out to the front, apparently helping with restaurant tasks that no child should be doing. Despite having prepaid through Too Good To Go, no one acknowledged us for nearly 10 minutes. We stood in a hot dining room with almost no air conditioning while the child wandered in and out and the adult remained behind the curtain. More people arrived behind us, also with prepaid orders, until there were about 10 people waiting. We watched three other customers receive their food before us. One was a DoorDash driver, which made sense, and one woman had arrived before us. However, another woman with a very small order was served ahead of us even though she arrived after we did. When the man finally came out, we showed him our Too Good To Go order. He swiped the app, marking our order as picked up, then disappeared behind the curtain again and never returned with our food. After waiting 45 minutes in a sweltering dining room on a nearly 100-degree Texas day, we gave up. We left without the food we had already paid for. At that point, losing the cost of the meal was preferable to staying in that environment any longer. This was one of the worst pickup experiences I have ever had. Between the unsanitary conditions, the lack of staff, the presence of a child apparently performing restaurant tasks, the complete absence of customer service, and the fact that we never even received the order we had already paid for, I can say with complete confidence: We will never return.
