    Kimbap- probably our favorite. Great value too!
    Yang C.

    Woo didn't expect a Korean restaurant of this caliber here but wha la here we are. Everything was yummy and unique from the hand towel creation piece at the beginning to the 'sets' of food we got. My sons favorite was actually more of a side dish - the dumpling soup. He also thinks the ambiance is 'cool.' And tell me where you can get kimbap like this!? Nowhere that I know of - even in Troy/Madison heights area. Service was also pretty good considering there was just 2 ladies running the whole joint with both doing everything from taking orders and cooking etc. That is pretty amazing in itself! We shall return!

    Took my family to this restaurant for the first time. Loved the friendly staff and owner. Food came out presentable; had to take picture of this amazing meal. It was very tasty- Will be back soon!

    Authentic food, family run. The menu is simple, so there's no overthinking it. I got bibimbap and my spouse had the bbq ribs. The portions were excellent, and all the small sides were great accompaniments to the main meal. The service was friendly and informative. No frills in the decorations, but an intimate space for great Korean food! We will definitely go back.

    Daily special: spicy pork stew & pork bulgogi
    Jong L.

    Every time I visit here, it feels like being invited to a friend's place. Homey food & atmosphere. Friendly service. This time we had the daily special, which was spicy pork stew. Something you can't find at a typical Korean restaurant.

    I had a serious craving for hwe naengmyun (spicy cold noodle with raw fish) after having it in LA,…read moreand after some searching in Michigan we landed on Sambong. I'm so glad we did. This place absolutely delivers. The service alone is worth noting. Our server explained that the owner makes the myun (buckwheat noodles) fresh in house, using the ultra thin style that absorbs the broth if you don't eat quickly. That detail alone told us we were in the right place. The hwe naengmyun (spicy cold noodle with raw fish) was exactly what I was hoping for. The fermented, salted raw fish had that sweet, sour, spicy, deeply umami flavor I missed, with a chewy texture that pairs perfectly with the icy, refreshing broth and noodles. I'd give it a 4.5/5 only because I personally love it even more aggressively fermented, but that's purely preference. At the end of the bowl, adding yuksu (hot beef broth) is the move. It softens the sharp vinegar edge and adds a deep, savory warmth that rounds out the last few bites beautifully. We also ordered mandu guk (dumpling soup), which is pure comfort. A milky, rich beef bone broth with hearty dumplings, perfect for a Michigan winter day. This is an easy 5/5 when the broth is this good. The bindaetteok (mung bean pancake) was another highlight. Crisp on the outside, soft and savory inside, and cooked just right. A solid 4.5/5. Sambong is a place I'll happily return to. Not just for the food, but for the connection to traditional Korean dishes that are hard to find elsewhere in the area. This spot feels special.

The beef broth was delicious and had a rich savory flavor. We tried the soondubu with mackerel combo. It also came with 2 side dishes of bonchon. For the amount of food, the price is really good.

    This visit was just as good as the last one. The shop was only slightly busy but there was plenty…read moreof seating and it was clean. I was welcomed by a nice lady at the register who took my order. She helped me with a couple of questions I had because I wanted to try something new but also wanted to get one of the Mozzarella Corn Dogs. I ordered a couple of tacos this time. Both were on the spicy side but not a lingering, hot spicy...just a quick "bite back" spicy, if you know what I mean. One was a Spicy Pork and the other was Chicken Teriyaki but both had a similar amount of spice. Might have been the sauce used. Hubby ordered the Teriyaki Chicken Bento Box. It was really good as well. I like this location as it's closer to me than Troy but both have great service and food.

I grabbed a menu and began my search for my fated dish. Having always been a fan of teriyaki chicken, that's what I went ahead and ordered. The staff, in the little interaction I had was friendly and the food came out promptly. Unlike some teriyaki chicken, this was thankfully not fatty and made for a pleasant dining experience. The avocado was fresh, and the bottled sauces that were included offered incredible flavor! I would say, from the meal, my favorite dishes were the chicken itself the kimchi (which was extra) and the noodles pictured in the bottom right (which I do not know their name). They were cold, which I believe is how they are served but they were really good and meaty! The kimchi was delicious and paired SO well with the dish! My only complaints were with the rice and the drinks. I was not really a fan of the texture of the rice and the soda was a bit flat. Overall I would rate Kimchi box a 4/5. A charming and clean establishment in its own right and I would gladly go back, especially to have some revitalizing food on a cool rainy day!

    I am glad I ordered ahead of time because I had a pick-up at 3:05 PM on a Friday. Only one person…read morewas there doing the cooking and taking orders. I had ordered Original Kimbap, 10 Pcs. Fried Chicken Wings no Sauce and Tteokbokki combo. Lets start off with the Original Kimbap. The portion size was spot on. Not to big and not too small that you can finish it in 3 minutes. The rice was tender and the vegetables were crunchy. I'm glad I ordered Tteokbokki because that sauce made it even better. 10 Pcs. Fried Chicken Wings w/ no sauce. I opted out of adding sauce because I wanted to taste what the wings were by themselves. Let me tell you they did not disappoint. Crispy, crunchy and flavorful. They were not big wings but not so small that you can finish the whole wing in one bite. What I do regret is I should of ordered the 24 Pcs. instead, but that is the beauty of going back. The last dish the Tteokbokki combo. The sauce was rich, sweet with a little spiciness to it. The rice cakes where not to gummy or to chewy. It comes with a hard boiled egg, fried kimmari, fried mandu and a cup of soup. The fried kimmari and mandu both had rice stuffed inside of them. Which for me is fine because like I said before I liked the sauce and those two items help soak up the sauce nicely. I didn't expect to get a whole egg, I was expecting half of an egg but it was a nicely battered and fried up. The soup, which I believe is a miso soup, help to really cleanse the pallet after all the richness of the Tteokbokki and fried items. If I am ever craving Korean food, I am making a mental note to come back here and ordering something else just to get more tastes of what they have to offer.

I was debating between a few choices but decided to go with their most popular a try. It is bulgogi beef with mixed vegetables, rice, seaweed wrapper. Not the cheapest but also not too expensive.
