This nook of a spot is so warming and cozy, perfect for a cold day. The service to get our food was really slow but it's only because they don't have a lot of people working. The food is really good, this soup came out steaming and was perfect. Overall, I would go again and i recommend. read more

Choi's Restaurant - Kimchi Jjigae with pork - Korean Near Me - College Station, Texas

A very mom and pop restaurant you go and take the good with the bad and still enjoy your experience. With move in week in full force they were quite overwhelmed with a decent amount of business all at once. Food took a while but when it came out it was smokin' hot (temperature) and delicious. We weren't in a hurry so all was good. Cant wait to try more stuff on my next visit. read more

Choi's is probably my favorite Korean restaurant in College Station. The ambiance is always very homey and relaxing. It's a comfortable setting and is never too crowded. The service is always pretty quick and the servers are kind. I love the side dishes they provide, especially the kimchi and fish tofu. I usually get the soondubu jjigae and have never been disappointed. My friends and I tried the seafood pancake this time and I was pleasantly surprised! Super crispy and flavorful, with lots of scallions and seafood! Choi's is always dependable and I can't wait to order the seafood pancake again! read more

Choi's Restaurant was such a pleasant surprise! Honestly, I didn't expect Korean food this good, especially in College Station! We ordered the seafood pancake, and it was crispy, flavorful, and just delicious. I got the jajangmyeon. The jajangmyeon was yum -- chewy noodles covered in a rich black bean sauce that was both savory and slightly sweet. The portion was generous, and the sauce had just the right balance, clinging to every noodle perfectly. If you're a noodle lover, this is a must-try. We also tried a variety of dishes like gamjatang, soondobujigae, and tangsuyuk, and let me tell you--each one was a hit. The pictures I've shared speak for themselves, but seriously, you've got to try them all. Everything had that homemade, comforting feel, and the environment made it even better. I went with a group of friends, and we all agreed that this is the kind of spot you'd want to visit after a long, tiring day or when you're feeling down because the food is just that comforting. It has that small, cozy vibe--almost like walking into a family-run place that's been serving the same amazing dishes for years. It's definitely one of those places where you leave feeling happy and satisfied. The service was also great--quick, friendly, and efficient. Our food came out hot and fresh despite how busy it was. The prices were very reasonable for the quality and amount of food we got, which is always a plus. The restaurant itself is small, which adds to its charm, but I'd recommend coming in a group of six or fewer, as anything larger might feel cramped. All in all, Choi's Restaurant has officially become my new go-to spot in College Station. I can't wait to go back and try more of what they offer--there's still so much I haven't explored on their menu. If you're in town or just passing through, you have to give this place a try. Let's keep supporting these amazing small businesses that offer such delicious, comforting food! read more

Came here for the first time since our first time. We ordered the bulgogi, kalbi, gimbap, and the tteokbokki. All their food was delicious. Prices are very reasonable for the quality of the dishes. The young male waiter was super friendly and fast. Lots of tables to dine at and lots of parking. read more

Just ok. The owners are nice and it seemed they were the only ones managing the place, so all the tables were left with dishes (They're hiring btw). The food was also decent and price range was reasonable. Definitely giving homemade-ish but not super authentic either. Environment is comfy, nothing crazy. Worth a try if u want Korean food! read more

I had an excellent meal here with a friend.

Get the kimchi jjigae!!! Everything on their menu is just so good. The price to portion is amazing as well.

This is a small family run restaurant. The old couple are such hard working people who really care for their customers. Even with nonstop online orders coming in, they made sure we had our drinks and side dishes. The food here is amazing. It tastes great and I keep coming back and it's definitely worth the wait for how good all the dishes and side dishes are. read more

I saw someone say it felt like a home cooked meal, and I couldn't agree more. The service was great and the menu (to me) felt pretty broad allowing there to be something for everyone. I've lived in Cstat for 6 years and never stumbled upon this place until today. I will definitely be back read more

Before I graduated this place was how I survived college. I would come here 3-4 times a week so I basically tried almost all the dishes. The food here was always made fresh and with a lot of care that I never worried about the food ever being poor quality. Even when I graduated I would crave the taste when I go to other Korean restaurants in Houston. This weekend I was lucky enough to visit Choi's again and I'm so happy that nothing has changed! This restaurant is and always will be my favorite restaurant in college station! Here are a review of some of my favorite dishes.. Tangsyuk: The tangsyuk here is really made different from any other korean restaurant. The batter they use makes every bite crispy but at the same time soft - I don't know how that's possible! Then when you dip it in this warm, sweet & sour sauce (with a very slight hint of pepper) it comes with, it becomes the perfect bite. I promise. Be careful to not get too excited and burn your mouth cause the tangsyuk is so fresh, it's piping hot! Rabokki: mmmmm the rabokki.. I still have dreams about the sauce they use with it. The sauce has this multi flavored taste: sweet, creamy and spicy. Added with ramen which is very fresh and so perfectly textured. The white onions, fish cake, and ttbokki just all work so well together. And lastly it comes with egg that I always small bites out of in between bites to even out all the other explosive taste. Grilled samgpseol: this is the only place that actually makes the pork belly slightly crispy (but not crunchy) and I love it! I hate it when my pork belly still has that meaty taste. I always make a wrap with it which includes... the lettuce, rice on top, kimchi, pork belly and the the bean paste sauce they include. Literally the perfect bite and I always tell my friends when I'm eating my pork belly from Choi's, I am the happiest. Grilled bulgogi/ grilled bulgogi kimbap: I use to always order the grilled bulgogi because the price for the amount I get is perfect for a college student. Then I would dip it in the bean paste sauce that you dip the samgpseol with (you have to ask for it) and it elevates the whole experience. I personally get tired of one flavor all the time so dipping it in the sauce changes up the taste for me. Then when I found out they use the grilled bulgogi in kimbap too (basically a korean sushi roll) I had to try it. Of course it lived up to all my expectations. The roll had so many flavors that complimented the meat wonderfully and it's super filling! If you're in a rush to study or to get to class, this is the perfect dish to order to eat on the go. If you want to elevate it, then ask for my favorite sauce (bean paste sauce) and it will be a bite to die for. Overall, Choi's will be the BEST restaurant to go to if you want affordable and amazing food!! read more

Japchae was a decent portion for the price, and the flavor was not bad. However, beef ribs and bulgogi were the size of lunch specials at high dinner prices! The ribs were also a bit tough, and bulgogi was average in taste. Side dishes included kimchi (over ripe), soy sauce potatoes, fish cakes, and spicy cucumbers. I prefer stronger flavors, so the sides were somewhat bland to me. read more

I had high hopes for this place because of the reviews but I have to be honest. I got the Budae Jjiigae and it looked good at first then I saw how filthy the portable stove top was and lost my appetite. The flavor wasn't there, it was really bland. There were 3 customers in the restaurant including myself, not once did I get a refill or asked how I was doing.. the lady passed me like 5+. I didn't eat nearly even half. I paid for my food & left dissatisfied but more so disappointed. read more

Choi's Restaurant - Kimchi Jjigae Lunch Special - Korean Near Me - College Station, Texas

I've been here 4 times now, and every single time have had an incredible experience. It's a quaint establishment, so expect homely personality, not elegance. The quality of food is unbelievable, and the portion sized aren't small. There's a variety of food they offer, and I think it's all reasonably priced. I've had their Gimbap, Tteokbokki, Seafood Pancake, Jeyuk Bokkeum, Japchae, and sides, but I'm eager to try out every item on the menu. I'm a fan of the selection of sides, they all taste fresh. The only problems you'll have here are if you don't like a dish in its peak form, because that's what they serve. read more

Choi's Restaurant - an excellent korean food in college station - Korean Near Me - College Station, Texas

It is a small family place, but it is about as authentic as it gets. We have been there several times now and have chosen different menu items each time during Corp of Cadet/Aggie events. We have never been disappointed in either the service or the food. Top noch and absolutely delicious. We look forward to going every time we go down to College Station. read more

My favorite Korean joint in College Station. Locally owned and operated. It has some of the best short ribs I've ever had. Service was a little slow, but definitely worth the wait. Small, cozy vibes all around. read more

I've been staying at CS for 6 yrs and this place is the best korean restaurant out of the three IMO. It just has a stronger flavor overall which I love. It might take a slightly longer time during peak hours, but its all well worth it ! The couple owners are very nice too, they sometimes give me extra Kimchi cause they know I like em. Their spicy pork and Tangsuyuk is a must ! Its not that spicy and its very savory. Their Kimchi is also my fav, its fresh and I usually buy the 0.5 gallon Kimchi to take home. If you feel like soup, you should go for the Gamjatang, Yukgaejang, or Samgyetang. This place has the best flavor among other restaurants IMO, would definitely recommend it ! read more

I went here for lunch with a few friends since I've heard good things about it. Between the four of us, we got two orders of bulgogi and bibimbap and decided to share. The bulgogi was decent, but it didn't have as many veggies as I'd like. It had good flavor and was a small portion, but then again you can expect that with lunch specials. The bibimbap was delicious, packed with veggies, and a huge amount - definitely what I'll be coming back for. My only complaint with this place is that our bills were weird. Even though we got two bulgogi and two bibimbap, all of our checks were for different amounts. Since COVID happened I try not to cause a fuss over these kinds of things, but it was an odd experience. Nevertheless, we'll be back! read more

Great food! Very kind service - they're low on staff so be patient! This was my first time having Korean cuisine, and certainly not my last. The gimbap was delicious, bulgogi beef flavored so well. I LOVED the black bean noodles so much! read more

Choi's Restaurant - Korean Near Me - College Station, Texas

Korean restaurants can be a) expensive and a waste of money, b) dirt cheap and godawful, or c) cheap and decent or d) utterly magnificent - a destination find. Choi's is c) cheap and decent. Fine for an everyday meal. In this case, conscientiousness and thrift rule. * * * Conscientiousness. Choi's has obtained three "100" grades in a row from the Brazos County Restaurant inspectors. Those inspections are tough as hell. Good places get grades in the 90's. Lots of places get grades in the 80's. Getting three 100's in a row almost never happens. So this is quite the monument to careful attention to proper food handling procedure. * * * Thrift. Choi's does not waste money. The walls have not been painted in ages. The meat is perfectly fine, but it is an economy cut. They do tricks in the kitchen to give the economy cut flavor. The tricks basically work. Their thrift means savings for you. * * * This is not a legendary twelve star Korean restaurant in Los Angeles. But for College Station utility, this is reasonable eating at a good price. I left happy. read more

A great local Korean spot in town that will surely take you to the "Land of Morning Calm" through their authentic taste and family-feel! I lived in Korea for 18+ years so my standard for Korean food is pretty high! This place really made its way to the top of the list as they offer all the local dishes I miss, and not just your typical Kimchi Fried Rice or Gimbap Roll... but also Gamjatang, Budae Jjigae, and Grilled Samgyeopsal! I called ahead to ensure that they were doing dine-in, and they were! We walked in and were greeted right away by the nicest host/server girl ever! And she had a table set up for us already. It was the sweetest. The menu was very basic and straight-to-the-point. No pictures. I had no issue as I'm well-versed in Korean food, but my friend who hasn't had Korean before had no idea where to start! I hope that eventually, they'd add descriptions to the dishes or feature some pictures of their popular dishes. I chose to get a Beef Gimbap Roll and Tteokbokki (rice cakes in spicy sauce) as a starter, and the Beef Bulgogi entree. The wait was a bit long on the food, a couple people came in and picked up to-go orders as we were waiting. But when the food did come... Everything tasted amazing and really took me back to Seoul! The sauces were on-point and surely authentic. YUM! If I'm ever back in College Station, I'll definitely be stopping by again to enjoy more of their other dishes! Thank you for operating during this COVID-19 pandemic. read more

I love this place!! Almost every dish comes with a lot of tiny sides that are amazing! The chef in the back is a very kind man. I asked for steamed dumplings and they gave me fried dumplings by mistake. I didn't even say anything to anybody because I was gonna eat regardless, yet the chef still came out and apologized himself!! I thought that was sooo sweet and the food was good too! read more

I walked in 30 minutes before closing on a Friday night. The waitress was cleaning tables (albeit very slowly because she was too busy on her phone at the same time). She looked at me as I walked in, obviously bothered, and asked "are you going to order", in a disgusted "how dare you" tone. I said yes, feeling very unwelcome (and a little awkward at that point). She came up to the counter to take my order, obviously bothered that I dared interrupt her texting... I mean cleaning. As I asked questions about the menu, I got short answers from an angry face and sometimes even no answers. She was rushing to charge me after I ordered my first menu item, even though it was clear I wanted to order more items. I left it at two items, between the angry face and tone, the being rushed to pay and short answers, because I was over it at that point and just want to get my food and leave. No wonder the South American restaurant next door had customers at this hour and this one didn't! Makes sense now. I guess this little girl is killing your business. ‍ read more
