Whenever I crave asian food I normally order something fried instead of something more authentic like a bowl or soup in Riverside County because of the number of times that I've been disappointed at other places. To be fair I grew up in LA where asian food's just on a different level! So naturally I was hesitant to order a bowl from Chef's Kitchen.. but Wow...I'm soo glad that I tried their bibimbap! The marinade of the spicy pork was perfection, the spice & consistency of the red chili paste was spot on, & the veggie/rice portion was Huge for the price (not to mention fresh!). I'm Korean & I've got to say.. hats off to the chef for nailing bibimbap. I'm pleasantly surprised, I wish I ordered this dish sooner. It totally reminds me of home~ Btw, red chili paste is totally an acquired taste, so I think it's a great idea that the sauce comes on the side (for anyone who might not be a fan). I slathered my entire bowl with it though. So good~ Also, their yellow pickled radish went SO WELL with this dish (it's also an acquired taste for some) :) read more

Service is the worst !!!! Not enough information!!! This place should just close down!!!! Tell people you don't sell food, don't ask people to go there and waste their time!! This place is a house doing business at home. They don't sell food!!! Horrible experience!!!! Ruined my day!!! read more

I am so happy to have found Korean fried chicken locally!! SO YUMMY! I need to go back...

Extremely happy with the food, pricing, and service. Pick up was a breeze. We will definitely be dining again! And it's great to support small business! Order early before things sell out. read more

Great food! Love the portions! We are definitely going to be returning customers! Food was ready right when i pulled up. Easy communication! read more

Boy do I love small businesses. They tend to their craft with such care and humility. This restaurant is actually located in a residential area, so be prepared to pick up your food from a home. I have heard countless of great things about Chef's Kitchen To-Go from my friends. The restaurant is amazing. The chef explained to us how to eat every dish, how it was made, and even included free pancakes and cookie. He took the time to walk us through the meal and how we should prepare our food at home. The food is 10/10, portions are very generous, and it is fairly priced. Will I be coming back? Yes. Should you try this small business? Run, don't walk! read more

Where to start with this home based restaurant? First the food is extremely fresh & delicious. I don't really care for spicy foods but we took a chance and ordered the bulgogi fries. They were outstanding. The spicy habanero sauce on top has the perfect spice level complimented bye a very delicious flavor. The fries wouldn't be the same without it The servies is very fast and polite. Second the young man who helped us with our order when picking it up was very fast (running) and offered a different banchan when he didn't have enough potato salads for my order. Pick up was fast and easy. Outstanding food and servies. 100000/10 Just ate the onion banchan and it's AMAZING read more

Highly recommend this place for whom craving for korean food. The chef is nice and all the food was packed carefully

WOW. Great service, good quality, and they add new menu items regularly! So happy to see this spot open up. I called in for an order and to my surprise, this location is actually within a neighborhood! I simply parked my car, waited at the curb, and someone came outside with my food. The man that has helped me these past couple of times is extremely friendly. He reassured to me that they are approved by the county to be open for business, they sanitize between customers, and you never have to leave your car! A very COVID-friendly business. They also offer delivery with 2 miles or on different apps like GrubHub. Onto the food: my favorites are their bulgogi kimbap and the original fried chicken! The kimbap is flavorful and fresh. The chicken is tangy, saucy, and savory. Everything they cook has great quality ingredients. I definitely recommend you try their Korean Street Food Combo! It comes with 20 pieces of chicken, 2 rolls of kimbap, 2 cups of tteokbokki, and 2 sides of potato salad (but they gave us mandu instead). If you check in on Yelp, you also get $5 off! I hope to see their menu develop and continue to grow soon. I noticed that they just added Kimchi Jigae to the menu! Hopefully they will add more and more menu items quick and show Moreno Valley what Korean food is all about. Fingers crossed that they add Galbitang to the menu someday! read more

the best home made food in Moreno Valley , the chef is very nice and the food is DELICIOUS!!!!!!! 맛있어요!!!!

Came across an Instagram ad for Korean food next to my old place. Since I don't live in the area, I showed my BFF so she can try and she loved it! I was in MoVal spontaneously so I placed an order over the phone. I called before they opened at 11 and they were able to take my order and prepare it in a reasonable amount of time, especially since I ordered last minute. I got home 30 minutes later and the chicken was still crunchy!! Cured my craving for KFC. I love Korean fried chicken because it isn't super oily and doesn't make you feel weighed down and gross after eating. The fish cake kimbap was sooo good too. I have enough food for a couple days now. Also came with potato salad and chicken mu. Potato salad was BOMB next time I'm gonna order a whole container to keep in my fridge. read more

Wow!!! Their wings ALWAYS have the same amazing flavor and are hella juicy!! It doesn't matter what time in the day or what the weather is outside, their consistency is on point and continuous! And, get this: the man who runs the food out to the car is Head Chef Park! (Ka-boom!!! Mind. Blown.) How many chefs talk to each and every customer about food and their favorites pretty much every single time they get an order?! I mean... WOW!!! What dedication and passion!! Their rolls are exceptionally soft and fluffy, so much better than Hawaiian rolls!! Their potato salad is creamy and full of textures in the best and yummiest way possible! My goodness, so filling and tasty! And their pickled radishes are so point, it's that additional flavor of home and love that sparks the nostalgic memories for everyone who eats it! I know I'm gushing, but I eat Korean food everywhere and Chef Park's food is unrivaled. Trust me when I say... Best Korean food with original flavors. Always looking forward to more!! read more

You can taste in every bite that the chef really cares about the quality of his food. We got the Korean wings which were very crispy and the best wings I've ever had. It seems like they even break the bones in the wings before frying so that they are easier to eat. Each wing was tasty and crunchy and also quite filling. I would love to try their other flavors. We also got the beef bibimbap, fish cake kimbap, potato salad, macaroni salad and bread rolls. The beef bibimbap has fresh ingredients and tastes very healthy, light but still had great flavor. Everything we ate was delicious and I would try it again. The wings are a must try. Though it may be pricier than the average franchise wing chain, you can certainly taste the difference and will not want to go back to regular wings. read more

First off I love to see some Korean cuisine stops out here in Moreno Valley as there aren't too many here to begin with. I do wish that the full menu was in stock regularly so I could try everything. Before I got the food, I did experience some frustration with the ordering process. We called thinking we could call in the order but the only way to order is by their online ordering page. The page did not function properly on my phone (android) and we managed to get to the order by chance via yelp link after several tries. After we ordered the food, the wait time was moderate, but fair. I love that we received a good amount of sauce for the katsu and the pork was tender and thin cut how I like it. I do hope that the owner considers call orders or gives the website an update, but I definitely want to try more of the menu. read more

Came here a couple days ago to satisfy my Korean craving. Ordering was easy and they were very cooperative with the curbside pickup. Food was still hot after my drive back home and everything was very good. Very generous portions of katsu, rice, and salad. The picked onions and jalapeños on the side, which tasted homemade, were fantastic and were some of the best I've ever had. They were even generous to include a chicken wing in my box and that was enough of a preview for me to order next time. I also ordered on a Wednesday which meant free potato salad on the back and that was very tasty as well. I will be back! read more

Food was so good! And the owner I feel bad for not catching his name is a really cool dude and you can taste the passion for what he's doing through his cooking! I cannot recommend ordering food from here enough the food is absolutely wonderful there's not anything on the menu you can go wrong with I tried the chef's plate which is the chicken katsu, beef bulgogi, wings, and various side items and everything had amazing flavor and passion cooked into them. I also tried the bulgogi fries which were also quite amazing.needles to say I was more than full and will be ordering again soon. read more

I tried Chef's Kitchen to Go for the first time and it did not disappoint. Everything was conveniently packaged hot and fresh. The Spicy Pork Bowl was a mix of tender pork and onions in a spicy chili sauce with a hint of sweetness on white rice. I got it with delicious crispy dumplings and kimchi. It was so good that my wife that "wasn't hungry" when I ordered ate half my bowl. Luckily I got the curry vegetables also. The mild curry sauce has the deliciously savory flavor you look for in comfort food. Ordering on their website is so easy. They contacted me as soon as I placed my order and gave me updates along the way. They provide curbside service by text message. I will definitely be ordering again. read more

I just recently moved to Riverside and have been looking for good Asian food, was really happy to find this place. Like others said, the pickup is in a neighborhood but the entire process felt safe and not sketchy at all. I ordered and paid online via the website and gave them a call when I was there. I got the spicy Korean fried chicken wings, the spicy pork bibimap, and bulgogi kimbap. All of it was so good. My favorite was the wings. I have no photos because i was hungry and everything looked delicious lol. The photos of the tofu and mushroom bowl looked so good, but they were sold out online when I checked around 6pm. Definitely will be back to try. Really happy I found this spot! read more

The family was craving Korean fried chicken and didn't feel like traveling long distances to scratch that itch. Luckily, this place popped up and looked to fill the bill. We ordered the naked and the spicy chicken 'sets' and omg, it was so good. Even though we picked it up and brought it home, the chicken was still crispy and oh so delicious! The chicken moo was fresh and did it's job cutting through the fat and oil and made you ready for more chicken. The potato salad was just like the kind you get in korean restaurants and was much appreciated as well. We will definitely be back for more whenever the itch arises and a plus is that we're helping to support local businesses. A last word about the service, even though it was pick up, the guy who helped us out was pleasant and professional and made sure we were comfortable with the whole process and satisfied overall. If it's not obvious by now, I highly recommend you try this spot out, you won't be disappointed. read more

Quite honestly the best Korean food in the area. Being from Los Angeles, I miss the good asian food living in Riverside, and this is one of the only korean fried chicken places in the area. I got the bibimbap and spicy fried chicken to-go and it was delicious! Taking a bite out of the food here makes me love this area even more now, and I can't wait to come back next time. Keep up the good work, I'm very thankful that this place exists. read more

Chef's Kitchen To-Go - Bibimbap and Korean Fried Chicken - Korean Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

I saw that someone had given them a one star rating because they did not understand why they were no lights on at the home and then didn't answer their door when they knocked. Wow. This is an approved and permitted Homebased Kitchen only, not a sit restaurant at a residential home. OK now that I got that out-of-the-way let's talk about the food. EXTRAORDINARY is the only way I can describe it. The best Korean ribs I've ever tasted. The chicken wings and spicy rice cakes were amazing as well. Outstanding food and customer service. I would suggest leaving business cards with customers when they pick up their orders so they can display with the food. My guests were hounding me for your information. so many more dishes I cannot wait to try!! Thank you Jae for making my daughters going away party success. read more

The Food - Its soooooooooo good. That's all I can say! The customer service- is excellent and very accommodating. I called in late for an order but still accommodated me.

Where do I even start off?! This is my second time back at Chef's Kitchen To-Go! The first time, I was here helping one of my friends pick up a catering order for a party we were having. The chef was super nice and helped us with the catering order and even gave us free fries. The food the first time was amazing. Today was my second time back and the service is still so amazing! He gave us free fries again for waiting, and got us our food super fast. The food here is 10/10 and priced fairly. I will be coming back!! Thank you so much for your generosity! read more

Once again, outstanding food this time we ordered the bulgogi kimbap, bibimbap with bulgogi and spicy rice cake. We dug in too quick lol couldn't take a good picture, but we have no regrets! This just means we will have to order again in the future ;) ! , ! #1Fan read more

One of the best places for KFC (korean fried chicken) in Riverside. Very authentic and ran out of a family kitchen. Everything is made fresh! We ordered the Korean street food combo and I think it can feed about 4 people comfortably. The chicken is crispy while still being coated with the flavorful sauce. I liked eating the spicy soup with some rice (not included), it's slightly fishy and very strong! Potato salad is very basic and kimbap was solid! Overall really tasty and a charming idea to run a home kitchen! It hits the spot if you're craving KFC and don't want to drive out for it! Tips: You have to pick up from a house. Would recommend ordering at least 45min before hand to give them adequate time to prepare and cook! read more

Don't let the residence site scare you, it's a well to do family business in Moreno Valley. When I ate the KFC, it felt like I was eating true home made korean food and it was very comforting.

One of my favooorite spots to get lunch in the Moreno Valley area. This was my second time going and the owner did not disappoint! I ordered a spicy pork bowl with sautéed kimchi and I can immediately tell the food was freshly made! The bowl itself had a lot of delicious flavor, you won't regret it! If you're ever in the area, I recommend trying this place as the 5 star Yelp reviews don't lie. ;) read more

I am always a fan of Korean fried chicken, but I had to drive far to get it. Now I won't have to do it anymore because the very first one in Riverside has opened, which is very close by UCR. I ordered 20 pieces of Korean fried chicken, spicy. There were white radish on the side, orange and potato salad for a trial, which was very nice. They made it fresh, so the chicken was very crispy by the time I picked up. Since they twice fried the chicken, so they wasn't disappointing me on the crunchy. The spicy sauce was also really good. I highly recommend to eat the chicken with rice or salad. It would be better if they also have cabbage salad on the sides coming together with the chicken. Korean chicken is also good with beers. This is a home chef business certified by Riverside county, so go ahead and support the local home chef during this time. I was so hungry and no time to take picture :( I definitely comeback to try another dishes :) read more

100000000/10!!!!! Everything we ate had such good flavor and felt so homemade yet professional at the same time. We ordered the chicken katsu, bulgogi fries and the korean chicken wings. It was all my favorite but the fries were my extra favorite. Spice level was perfect, wasnt overwhelmingly sweet and the fries had the perfect texture. You would think they would have been soggy especially after driving home with the food but they werent soggy at all! Same goes for the chicken katsu breading. I also could never have Ono chicken katsu again after trying this chicken katsu. I will be thinking about this food for a while and i'm already looking forward to trying it again read more

I found the location and it was at a residential home. I was confused. It was dark and all the lights were off at the house during the open hours. I came and knocked at the door and rang the bell and no answer. There was no sign at the door saying closed or sold out. I also tried calling once I was there to see if it was correct and no answer. It was a waste of time driving out 20 minutes. They should have put out a closed sign on the door or window. read more

BE SURE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS ISN'T A SIT DOWN RESTAURANT BEFORE ORDERING I was craving Korean fried chicken wings but wasn't sure if there were good places near me. Ordered online, got my time slot, and drove over. As soon as I pulled up, I got a text saying the wings would be a couple minutes, so big ups for clear and friendly communication Got my wings and bulgogi fries and BOI lemme TELL you. They weren't lying when they said the wings are "Super Crispy, Never Greasy!" Super flavorful, super juicy wings, incredibly good fries. No complaints! It even came with a glove and a free side of potato salad 6 out of 5 stars for the food, communication, and vibes.
