KBOP Korean Kitchen - What we ate - Korean Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

If you're looking for a filling lunch special at a great price, I highly recommend checking out KBOP! They serve large portions with fantastic flavors at very affordable prices. My bowl included rice, noodles, vegetables, and one mandu, along with a side of what I believe was clear soup. The chicken was great, very crispy! It was actually spicier than I expected, but I don't have a high tolerance. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, complemented by outstanding service. The staff was friendly, patient, and truly accommodating. All in all, it was a delightful experience! read more

My hubby and I stopped in KBOP Korean Kitchen for lunch. I first noticed the wall art, nice touch! The menu is plentiful. So much so, I couldn't decide what to order. While I agonized over making a decision, my husband ordered the Spicy Korean Fried Chicken Bop Bowl and a corona beer for $20. Thank goodness I took forever to order because my husband's meal came out and it was generous! His bowl fed BOTH of us AND we had leftovers. The Spicy Korean Fried Chicken Bop Bowl had chicken, rice, noodles, veggies, and one mandu on top. Their chicken? Crispy and flavorful (kinda salty, but not overbearing). The spicy was gringo level. Service was welcoming and fast. The restaurant is clean, cute and inviting. My husband mentioned how this place would make a great Yelp event! FYI- Kids eat free on Tuesdays They offer Military discount Light Beer and wine selection Outdoor seating They give you a scratch-off card with freebies and/or discounts for your next visit. P.S. They have a loyalty program! We're already at 132 points after 2 visits. We can get a free appetizer or save our points for a few BOP Bowl. I'm all for free food! read more

Stopped in for a lunch date with the wife, it was a good choice. My wife couldn't decide what to get, so I ordered for myself, which turned out to be the right call because the portions are HUGE. One bowl fed both of us and we had leftovers. I ordered the Spicy Korean Fried Chicken Bop Bowl. It came with a side soup (I think it's clear soup), the bowl had rice, noodles, veggies, and one mandu. The chicken was excellent: crispy, flavorful, and not overly salty. The "spicy" label is mild. In all, delicious. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service was top-notch. Staff were kind, patient, and genuinely welcoming. A few bonuses worth mentioning: Kids eat free on Tuesdays Military discount available Light Beer and wine selection Scratch-off cards that can win you free items on your next visit Outdoor seating We'll definitely be back with the kids. Great food, great service, great value. read more

I love the unique addition to Mandarin and it may become a local favorite. Their corn dog was a must try! It was both crispy, sweet, salty, and delicious! We also got the chicken BOP and it was very filling and tasty. The serving sizes are very large and I recommend sharing with someone. The Kimbap was well made and something new to my palate. As a bonus, you get a drink half off with a BOP bowl purchase. The staff were very helpful explaining the items, but I was very disappointed they didn't have a paper menu so I could see what was in each food choice. There were just pictures up on the wall and I can't hear well so I had no idea what the staff member said. Somehow the food still turned out amazing! The prices are a bit high, but they spend a lot of time perfecting the food. I hope to go back soon, but I'll have to split the bowl since they're so big. read more

We tried this place I loved my boba drink & also the ice coffee is great. I love Korean kfc chicken but I forgot to get my sauces on the side. I'm not a fan of the ramen here it's not bad at all it's just not the type I like. This is a great little fun place the kids really enjoyed eating here. Just make sure to remember they are heavy on the sauces so get them on the side. read more

I was surprised with how much I liked the Korean dog covered in hot Cheeto dust. It was my favorite dog by far. However, don't expect the meat to be underneath every bite. It's tasty, but not filling. read more

I was so pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed what I ordered from KBOP Korean kitchen. I got the bulgogi meal, which comes with rice, veggies and one mandu (dumpling). The bowl felt heavy, so it was packed with food. I actually ate half for dinner and the other half for lunch the next day. The bulgogi was perfectly seasoned and cooked nicely. We also got fruit tea, since they had a buy 2 get 1 free special. I got the red guava flavor and it was AMAZING! The fruit tea also came with lychee jelly and we added strawberry popping pearls to ours. I most certainly will be back every time I find myself in the area! read more

Sooooo good! We came in hungry and left stuffed! I'm so happy this location opened up near me. Walking in you order at the counter, then find a seat and they bring you your food, fast casual I like that. Started with Boba, it was ok I still prefer to get Boba from an actual Boba shop. Now to the food, no complaints at all, everything was very tasty! I love the bowls come with so much variety in it! Your choice of protein, rice, noodles ( so yummy!) Veggies, and a dumpling! The chicken teriyaki was delicious chicken nicely grilled, I loved it! The corn dogs are an experience, half cheese half hotdog, the potato one came rolled in sugar?! So good! Even the kids meal was good, nice crispy chicken not over cooked! Can't wait to come back! read more

We were close by and saw the reviews. The first impression walking in was the staff looked stressed out and especially one member had a didn't want to be there look. It wasn't that busy for a Saturday afternoon. Took our order at the counter, he did ask if you are police or military for a 10% discount. We both ordered drinks at the fountain machine and both drinks were flat. I mentioned it to the one female staff member and she said thank you and didn't tell anyone. I tried another drink and it was also flat so I waited at the counter to get the other staff member to dump our drinks and get some sweet tea instead due to the flat drinks. He then immediately told someone in the back to work on it. After a few minutes they serve a complimentary soup which was a nice bonus. The order took probably 25 minutes to come out but the beef Bibbibop was very fresh. It was outstanding, ate every bite. read more

KBOP Korean Kitchen - Potato Corndog Corn Dog - Korean Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

There's no flavor in the kim bop, bulgogi bowl, or assorted banchan..... very disappointing.

I really had higher hopes for this place. We made the mistake of craving sushi on a Monday when the good places nearby are both closed. And I was hoping to try a Korean dish without shelling out a fortune for an all-you-can-eat nightmare. So we gave them a try. I was actually excited to see what they tried to do here with fast-food Korean. But the execution... Really not for me. The Dynamite Roll was fair. Kind of luke warm when my son got it, like it had been prepared ahead of time and kept in a warmer. Maybe a 3 out of 5. But then the bulgogi bowl took sooo long to show up, my son was completely done with his lunch before mine even arrived. The sauce on the beef was OK, but the rest of the bowl was rice and plain bland glass noodles, and not much flavor at all. I think it was supposed to be japchae, but it really was only noodles and no sauce or vegetables. A bit of shredded cabbage and carrot. And finally one tiny mandu with nothing to dip it in. The bowl was so dry you really had to work to choke it down. Most places will serve a bowl like this with some ssamjang sauce, or bibimbop sauce, or even just some extra bulgogi sauce to vigorously stir in and add some flavor. After digging around, we found some take-out soy sauce packs on one of the counters, but that is really not what the dish needed. Maybe a 2 out of 5. The beef itself kept it from being a 1 out of 5. The only other good thing you could say about it was that it was more filling than the sushi roll. On the bright side, the place was clean. Well laid out. And I do like the concept. Plus the corn dog menu looked pretty fun. Korean food can be really fantastic, so hopefully, even a mediocre execution of a great thing will be good enough for the locals to keep them in business for a little while. I really despise the cafeteria style system of tipping when you order, before you even know what sort of service you're going to get. And this is an example where the default 15% was waaay too much for the service we got. It was a little after noon on a Monday and there was only one other party in the place. So they definitely weren't too busy to synchronize the order or check on customers. Really, the next time we want sushi, we'll just wait for the good restaurants to open up on Tuesday. They're real restaurants with full service, great rolls, and lunch specials that wouldn't cost much more than a single roll cost us here. Then for Korean food, it's not easy to find an equivalent around here. There's a great Korean restaurant 3 miles up the road, but it would have cost us double or even triple, with no lunch items. But probably worth every penny. Or I'm sure we'll eventually find a nice Korean BBQ joint nearby. But that bill would probably be four or five times as much. And way too much for an easy lunch. So, keep trying. Train your staff. Take a hard look at your menu. Put some more work into the sides and sauces. We need fast-food Korean, but it has to stay under $20 a person and it has to be a flavor BOMB. read more

Too salty. Could not even taste the food past the sodium. Left 2/3 of food on the table. Not good.

So I treated myself today while visiting K-Bop for their soft opening. The delicious Korean fare is made fresh to order. Excellent customer service and staff is super friendly, helpful and professional. The dining area is spacious, comfortable and bright with great music playing thru their speakers. I'm totally spoiled now since they're conveniently located near my home! Hope to see y'all here sometime for lunch, dinner or to enjoy a refreshing tea and/or dessert.

We ordered a variety of items for pickup. Beef dumplings, kfc, bulgogi rolls and plain fries. It was ready at its scheduled pickup time. I walked right in and the kind staff assisted me and made sure everything was there. I assumed the KFC would be actual wings but the boneless pieces were still a good size. Altogether the food was definitely a solid 8/10. There are some things I'd like to go back and try! This location is definitely larger than your typical storefront. I can see it being a casually upbeat atmosphere at any given time of day. read more

Well I'm glad that K bop has opened a location on San Jose Blvd and I think my dish tasted better than their other location! We had the bulgogi Bop and the beef bibimbap, both very good, serving size is great and very savory flavors. I was surprised that the cashier didn't give me the right answer when I asked if there was anything spicy in the bibimbap because there was a big serving of kimchi in there but luckily I just gave it all to my friend LOL. We saw many boba drinks being served and they looked fantastic definitely have to try that next time... and I saw you can add Boba and Mandu to your entree as a combo for extra $6.95. But I was very happy with the self-serve Fountain drinks and everything tasted Super Fresh read more

Second time I've stopped in for lunch and I haven't been disappointed. The lunch specials take money off certain bowl options and on this trip I chose the teriyaki grilled chicken bowl. Was excellent. Great portions, glass noodles and a fried dumpling were a nice addition, and the complementary clear soup was very good. I don't come here enough but the food has been super solid on two go-arounds now. I highly recommend anyone looking for bowls and large portions with great value. read more

Great place, the restaurant is simple but cute, but the food is amazing! Huge portions, and strong flavors. Enjoy!

Food was good but waitstaff left a LOT to be desired. Dropped clear soup on my husband, handed him a handful of paper napkins to clean up, and then didn't bring him a replacement soup. We waited ten minutes and finally asked for one. Then brought out one of three bobas ordered with no explanation as to where the other two were. Again, waited about ten minutes and asked for the other two only to be told they were waiting on the poppits to be made. That should have been communicated when the one boba was dropped off instead of leaving people wondering where their order is. read more

This place has a cool interior. Good vibe and very clean. Nice variety of food and tastes great. The staff is very friendly.

The corn dogs are really well made and tasty. Hot and fresh out of the fryer. We tried the bowls and they were just ok. The glass noodles were highly under-seasoned, really just bland and tasted of nothing. I think if seasoning was taken into consideration and improved, score could go up to 4 or 5 stars. read more
