Our meal started with waiting about 10 minutes for someone to come to our table. the restaurant was half empty and i watched staff bus and clean and reset 4 tables while we were sitting menus closed on our table waiting to order. they did not have anything that i am able to drink so my husband got my cup from the car. someone walked up and said we don't allow outside drinks. i said fine i just won't drink anything she then offered to put my cup in the cooler for me (pretty sure that's a health code violation) as was the employees walking to the cooler in view of customers an drinking from open soda cans in the cooler. then we ordered a total of 5 items and everything came out at different times. nothing came together. the food was pretty good we had bulgogi kimbap beef gyoza chicken katsu bento box spicy tuna roll and kimchi fried rice. But the service SUCKED. after finishing eating we waited another 15 mins for our check so we could leave. will not return here. Between the poor service and visible health violation it is enough to encourage me to find another spot to get good food as there are so many other options read more

Ambiance was really cool. It was very small but it worked. It seemed like the type of place to always be crowded and at times it was hard to hear my guest, but not too much of an issue. Service was interesting. Much of the time, we had different staff come up to take our order, which made it seem like there was no real organization to the place. Food was fine. It was tough to get help with my gluten allergy and despite being helped by most of the service staff, only one member was able to actually navigate the menu with me. BUT she was amazing and ended up being our "main server," coming back to make sure we were okay and that the food was gluten free and just chatting with us. I don't recall her name, but she was definitely the highlight! read more

Service was fast and friendly. It's a smaller restaurant, but that doesn't take away from a lovely experience there! The food was fresh and delicious. We tried the belly fries, bento box with Korean ribs, and salmon sushi/sashimi bento box! read more

This was my first time trying pork katsu and wow! This was delicious. I ordered the bento box and thoroughly enjoyed the pork katsu, the house salad, and the rice. You can totally skip out on the dumplings and cali roll in my opinion. I also didn't care for the sauce they provided, I just used soy sauce. Was a nice size serving, I ate mine in two sittings. Must try! read more

Hungry Belly Japanese Dallas Cute warehouse style Love the rope ceiling! Sushi bar but it's not one you can sit at (at the moment). But they were under some construction when we visited so maybe that will change? The atmosphere looks to aim at casual upscale; the ceiling sports really a cool assemblage of ropes come together into a pleasing artsy design. The tables and half booths are cozy and intimate. They even have outside dining with the larger "Christmas bulb" lighting black lighting the overhead. I bet this looks very cool at night! The FOOD is where it's at tho! The daughter and I tried some of our regular faves, chicken teriyaki and Kalbi ribs, to see how THEY make it! We were not disappointed! The kalbi was marinated and grilled to perfection w the yummy grill char that we love so much. The Teriyaki Chicken was tender and juicy. We got banchan (sides) with our kalbi, which are our fave part of Korean food. Ours consisted of a marinated tofu, spicy greens, cabbage kimchi and a bologna and green pepper which I've never had before but was pleasantly surprised by the flavor combo! We also had veggie tempura, and I had tuna sashimi; which I always partake of when I visit a good Japanese restaurant. It was SOOOOOO good!!! The tuna tasted fresh and clean; not a hint of fishiness and still firm flesh, lovely texture and top notch flavor! Check these guys out next time you are in the Dallas area! read more

Always good everything you try. Ivr had two different ramens, all really good Bento box is a ton of food for the price, which is definitely worth the money The waiting area is a bit odd, so I suggest calling ahead ? Or I guess making a reservation I haven't called, so I'm not sure about the process, but I know they have a reservation system in place read more

I ordered the beef bulgogi and it was not good. Bento box looks cool but I didn't love the food.

The place has the best of everything you could possibly want. The service is amazing, and the ramen is so good! Come here in PJs or for a date night. read more

I've been wanting to try Hungry Belly for a while, and I finally got the chance! My partner and I ordered the Korean Short Rib Bento Box, which came with salad, California rolls, rice, and potstickers. I also ordered a miso soup on the side since it wasn't included (I'm so used to bento boxes including soup). The flavors were good, and the food was satisfying overall. The restaurant itself is cute, small, and inviting, and the staff was nice. However, the service could use some improvement. Our server kept forgetting things, and I didn't feel comfortable asking again. Also, for $25, the bento box felt a little pricey, especially without soup included. $70 including tip for 2 bento boxes, a soda, and miso soup is pricey more than what I'm used to. I came during lunch, but they didn't have a lunch menu, so everything was full price. Despite the service and pricing, I'm interested in returning to try their sushi. Hopefully, my next visit will be a smoother experience! read more

I got the sushi bento box and my party also got the bulgogi fries and the 2 different types of noodle bowl. Everyone enjoyed their food - except the japchae - that no one really cared for. We ended up taking it home and just threw it away. Service was really good and very attentive. It was really crowded the whole time we were there. Parking is decent - they have their own private lot. read more

SO SO good, best crab rangoons I have ever had I crave them literally daily!! The cali roll is also amazing, and it's so good as both a dine in and to go option. The to-go is so fast, and I've never had to wait very long unless it's crazy busy. read more

This is a cute little spot to meet up with friends or go on a date! We came here with our party of 6 & were seated right away. We got the bulgogi fries, japchae, & I got a bento sushi box while the rest of my family got various things. I got the shrimp tempura roll & the salmon roll. Everything was delicious & tasted really fresh! service was really good, everyone was so nice and patient with us. read more

Ordered this place on Uber Eats since I always drive by it and wanted to check it out for lunch. Since it was delivery was not expecting same quality as if it was fresh, but the food was really good. Good platter of food for lunch. However, the salad the dressing was a bit too sour/bitter for my liking. The rice to meat ratio is completely off. It was $27 before tax and tip and fees for delivery which is really expensive for what it is. read more

Had the spicy miso ramen and it had like no flavor but the sauce they have on the table is good, the drinks are good and serves in cute mason jars, the restaurant is kinda small and there's so many workers even tho the place is empty, people are nice the food is not good read more

Don't know if this is a pro or con but Hungry Belly has so many different options to choose from. It was nice to have such a wide variety but it took my friends and I a good moment to decide what to order. That being said, the agedashi tofu was so delicious! It was super soft and silky, and I liked how the sauce was a bit on the thicker side. The outside was still nice and crispy too. I got the apple roll and that was really good too, the fish seemed pretty fresh. Other than that, nothing too stand out about it though. read more

My favorite roll here is the panic roll with them fresh jalapeños. Also can't go wrong with any of the fries (hungry, kimchi, or belly). The Gyoza is always a hit. I like sitting outside when the weather is right because the inside can be a little crammed. All the servers are genuinely nice and work hard for their tips. read more

The food at Hungry Belly was DELICIOUS! The price to portion ratio was fantastic, with super flavorful food. I recommend the Bulgogi Bento Box!!! The service was pretty standard, the staff were kind and the food came out pretty quickly. No complaints there! The inside of the restaurant is pretty small but they have a nice heated, covered patio (I recommend the patio more than the inside seating). Only issue is that parking is pretty limited so keep that in mind! I will definitely be coming back here! read more

The place is nice, with izakaya style seating indoors, and tables outside on warm days; parking is plentiful in their own parking lot as well, with myriad street parking too. I ordered the Spicy Pork bowl, which was a bit disappointing for the price. The pork tasted more like Kung-Pao chicken, rather than the sweet-spicy I've come to expect from Korean cooking. It was rather flavorless, and most of the taste came from raw heat and spiciness. I couldn't taste the gochujang (if they make it correctly) at all. One pro of this dish is that they give you a lot of pork, instead of piling it with rice and veggies. The Hungry Fries were much better; the beef was sweet and spicy, and the fries were covered in two types of cheese. It was simple but very filling and well worth the price. The salmon avocado rolls were fresh, but nothing exciting either. Overall, I'd come back, though this wasn't my favorite restaurant, nor is it the cheapest place. One thing to note is that they no longer serve ramen, despite what their old menus say. read more

I was surprised that I wasn't a huge fan since the ratings are so high. I got a chicken teriyaki bento box to go and I wasn't a huge fan of the salad, my gyoza were cold (I picked up right on time), my chicken was somewhat dry and the teriyaki came on the side. The California roll was good though! read more

Came here on a weekend and it was PACKED. They have a lot of options. Not sure how "authentic" it is because they serve sushi, orange chicken, and pho (have never seen this at a sushi spot). I thought that was kind of weird but I would come back. They also had a lychee flavored sake which was fun to have. read more

Great place to get some good Asian food late night on a week day. We got the bulgogi and short rib bowls.

Service was friendly and the vibe was casual. Definitely check it out. read more

My review is simply for a take out so I wouldn't comment on the service or ambiance. The reason for such a low rating is simply the fact I didn't realize until later that "Hungry Belly" is what you feel like *after* dining there! The portions are so small. The food is decent but still, the $30+ appetizer and entree i ordered barely registered and just felt like starters. While there are other things on the menu that do look interesting, I'll pass on this spot in favor of several other places that offer a more fulfilling experience. read more

Sumptuous and reasonably priced Asian-fusion cuisine. Last minute decision. No reservation but manager accommodated us and made room. Attentive and caring staff especially John - impeccable service and host. Great and tasty bento box. We enjoyed the ambiance and service. Great place to explore when visiting in Downtown Dallas. Highly recommended. Will done again. read more

By far the best Korean food outside of Carrolton and Old K-town on Royal Lane. The dolsot bibimbap was definitely up to standard and everything in the bowl was fresh. The beef was really tender and had the classic bulgogi sauce on it. The only issue I have with my experience is that the prices are super high. $20 + tip for dolsot bibimbap is too high for my liking. This is a common issue I've found with the Korean restaurants in the area. Surprised that all of the customers in the restaurant were ordering only from the sushi menu. Highly encourage people to try out the other items on the menu. Ask the owner for recs! read more

Food: Spicy edamame: 5/5: Hot and spicy, nice kick of hot oil and chili Apple roll: 2/5 - Grocery quality, roll was not tied enough, rice was missing seasoning, fish was not fresh Orange chicken: 1/5 - Very crispy, but missing basic seasoning (just chicken without salt) Service: There were more employees in the restaurant than customers. I could say at least 2 staffs vs 1 customer ratio. It took them almost 20-30 mins to get us some water, then another 30 mins plus to wait to order food. Forever waiting...what a sad dinner for us :( read more

This isn't the best, but it's a solid go to spot. Convenient, fairly quick service, reasonably priced, and a relaxed environment. I love how hot the Miso Soup is. I feel like the quality of the sashimi is good, but not the best. Same for the variety of sashimi options. The Korean short rib bento is very good as are the Moscow Mules. read more

Hungry belly is one of my go-to spots for eating out in Dallas! I always get the hungry fries (cheese fries topped w/ bulgogi) or crab rangoons as my appetizer and these never disappoint. The sushi is amazing especially for the price, and the quality beats the more expensive sushi restaurants I've tried around the DFW area. The bento boxes are also a great deal, as they come with lots of side dishes and can usually be eaten for two meals (my favorite is the pork katsu). Aside from the delicious food, the service is also excellent. The waiters are very attentive, and the food is served quickly even when the restaurant is really busy. I highly recommend coming here! read more

We went here for dinner on a Saturday, or shall I say we tried. The entire experience was just plain weird. First off, the parking is insane. There is a large lot that is hard to get to and is not configured correctly. The lot was full, but there were 2-3 tables occupied in the restaurant. Was all the parking taken by staff? There is a small lot that is virtually impossible to get into or out of. That is where we were stuck. There are multiple doors and it is hard to know where to enter. The least likely suspect, the door with boxes stacked in front of it, is the entrance. I thought it was the door for deliveries. We finally parked, and entered. You wait to be seated. The people in front of us did take out and were taken care of immediately. We waited to be seated. And waited. And waited. And waited. Finally someone came and did not know where to put us even though the restaurant was virtually empty. We decided to go the patio since the inside seating area is quite small. The patiot was not heated and one of the multiple doors was open. On a cold day. We sat and waited. And waited. And waited. We looked at the menu and did not really see anything that appealed. There are two QR codes, one for drinks, one for food. That was confusing. After a long wait, we were still had not been greeted, so we decided to leave. Everything about this place is confusing. Won't be coming back here again. Maybe they have good food, who knows. When a restaurant makes it this hard to eat, it is not worth the effort. read more

Everything we ordered was delicious! Great service, quality food and decent prices. We will be back.

So nice not having to drive all the way to Carrolton/Plano for some quality Korean/Japanese food. The food came out fast and hit the spot. Our server was extremely attentive and you can tell she enjoys her job. She cares about her customers and made our stay very pleasant. read more

Small place with some good options. We walked in without a reservation on a Monday afternoon and were promptly seated. Food: I really liked their Bulgogi, the marination was good. The bulgogi also comes with some accompaniments like kimchi, tofu, etc which went really well with it. The kimchi fried rice could have been better, in my opinion, it could have been more varied. Service: We were seated promptly and the server was nic. She checked up on us frequently. In fact, the owner also walked up to every table to make sure that the guests were happy. In-all: Decent food for a quick, meal. next time, I'd try their sushi though, they had so many options. read more
