Always hit. No beer, but great soondubu and LA kalbi. No reservations, weekdays usually easy to get a table. read more

My Tofu House has long been one of my favorite spots for tofu soup. This time, we visited on a Friday evening and were seated immediately. It had been a while since our last visit since we don't live in the area and there are plenty of other Asian food options we enjoy in the city. Once the food arrived, I was reminded why I enjoy this place so much. The flavors of my original tofu soup were comforting and satisfying, and the accompanying side dishes were just as good as I remembered. The only disappointment was that they were out of fish and no longer serve the stone pot rice with the meal. Although they mentioned the rice is still cooked in a stone pot, one of my favorite parts was scraping up the crispy, burnt rice at the bottom, which is now missing from the experience. Overall, I still enjoyed my meal and wouldn't hesitate to return again when given the opportunity. read more

My Tofu House - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

My Tofu House is the place to be when it's super cold outside and you're looking to eat until you're comatose. Portions are generous, banchan gets refilled quickly, and service is super friendly. - Combination Soondubu: Came with plenty of thin slices of beef and bits of seafood. I got medium spicy, but I think you could easily go for a higher spice level to get some more flavor. I liked the seafood a tad bit more than the beef and would probably get the seafood-only soondubu on my next visit. - Seafood Bibimbap: A beautiful, sizzling bowl of rice, veggies, and seafood that we couldn't get enough of. You control the sauce levels yourself with the bibimbap sauce at the table. When you dine in, you also get refills of home-brewed tea which was even more comforting on colder nights in SF! read more

We've gotten takeout and delivery a few times from here. It was nice to finally dine in. Unfortunately they no longer offer those medium sized fried fish (croaker?). I asked about them and they said the costs have gotten too high. They were kinda the highlight of the meal so that was a bit of a bummer. Otherwise the tofu soups tasted pretty normal. I didn't know whether we should crack the raw egg or if the server was going to do it. The server eventually came to do it. read more

I came back while visiting San Francisco over the July 4th weekend because this used to be one of my favorite lunch spots. Unfortunately, the food didn't taste the same as I remembered. It was really disappointing since I always had great experiences here before. I'm not sure if the ownership or management has changed, but it just wasn't the same. read more

We were trying to figure out where to eat, and my (Korean) friend said this place had the best tofu soup he's had in the city. Never having had tofu soup before, of course we had to go try. We were quickly seated in the cozy yet spacious booths, and I decided to split one tofu soup and one bibimbap with someone so that we could try both. Barley tea was brought to the table alongside the banchan/side dishes (which included the best fish cakes I've ever had the pleasure of trying, with amazing taste and unique texture). The Kimchi Soft Tofu soup we got (medium spice) was absolutely incredible. The perfect meal for a cold San Francisco evening; hot, hearty, nutritious, and delicious, filled with tofu and kimchi as well as beef, mushrooms, and an egg, served to eat on top of rice. I'm now happily looking forward to the next time I get to enjoy some tofu soup, from this restaurant specifically. The Korean pancake and the bibimbap we got were also fantastic, the pancake especially in combination with the fish cakes, and the bibimbap especially once layered in the gochujang sauce. We left incredibly satiated and content. read more

Came here many times before, but this was my first visit in years. We really missed the stone pot rice that used to be served directly at the table. We loved the burnt, crispy rice pieces at the bottom of the stone bowl. We came around 6:30 PM and it was busy, but there was no wait. The place has nice decor, with booth seating that feels semi-private, and everything was clean. The food is still good as always, but they no longer serve the rice in the stone pot. I asked one of the servers, and they said it is still stone pot rice, just not served in the pot anymore. I wonder if someone got burned or hurt? Overall, the food was still good, but I was a little disappointed with the rice situation since I was really looking forward to it. read more

Had an amazing experience here as a vegetarian! Visited My Tofu House on a weeknight with my partner (who LOVES meat). There were a few groups waiting before us but service was quick and efficient and we were seated after about 10 or so minutes. Inside is no frills, but very cozy, with large tables available to accommodate groups. I told the waitress I was vegetarian when ordering and she mentioned removing fish sauce from my dish and providing extra soy sauce and salt on the side to replace it. She also pointed out which banchan were vegetarian friendly when they came out. This was so helpful and appreciated! It really felt like staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a good dining experience. Our banchan plates were refilled multiple times and our tofu soup was delicious - I took home leftovers I was so full! Highly recommend for kind and attentive staff, large menu (with vegetarian options and accommodations if you reach out to staff), and satisfying comfort food. read more

The service was amazing. They were super attentive even though it was busy. Of course, I had to try their combo tofu soup with beef and seafood. It did not disappoint! The side dishes that came with it were delicious, and the whole meal with rice and soup together felt so comforting and heartwarming. A solid go-to if you're craving something cozy and satisfying. :) read more

First time trying tofu stew, and this restaurant changed my entire perspective on it! I got their combination soft tofu, which came with clams, shrimp, and beef. The broth was delicious and soaked with the seafood and beef made it that much more decadent and savory. The banchan it was paired was delicious and paired perfectly with specific bites. We also got their seafood pancake, and I've always wanted to try this! It came with a soy sauce for dipping and it was sizzling hot. Once eaten it's crispy on the outside and soft with all types of seafood inside like octopus, shrimp, and clams. The interior is cozy, cute, and clean. As for service, it was amazing! Tonight our server was Ashley and she was a bright light, and did a great job at making me feel comfortable and ready for this meal as we explained it was my first time having this sort of meal. I absolutely cannot recommend this spot more! Especially if you're looking for a homey soup that will hit the spot when it's cold or if you're feeling down! read more

Okay turns out tofu soup here is solid. The seafood tofu soup was chock full of seafood and very savory. Banchan was good but I actually don't know why I loved it so much before (this time I got 4 banchan - kimchi, fish cakes, bean sprouts, and cucumber - and thought they were fine but nothing special). read more

This was a childhood spot for a friend who grew up here, and apparently it's a city institution! They have tofu soups and bibimbap, along with pancakes. The Cucumber banchan is AMAZING I ate sooo much of it. They are very generous with the sides and will refill them which I love. The free fried fish was a nice touch! I feel like the food itself wasn't amazing but hits the spot with a craving. Service was great! read more

Amazing service! Our go to spot for tofu stew. Our tea was never empty or even low and we got banchan refills unprompted. You get a fried fish with each main order which is a delight to eat. On to the soup, it's savory, umami and well balanced. That is if you get the mild spice level. It's perfect for spooning into your mouth without getting that spicy burn at the end! read more

My Tofu House - Seafood Soft Tofu - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Such an underrated and homey restaurant!! The soondubu is served piping hot and the portions are extremely generous. It is truly the perfect comfort meal for any day. The banchan are delicious too- you don't typically see fried fish being offered elsewhere! I believe they do free banchan refills, but we were too stuffed to ask for more. I also love that they scoop your rice at the table and pour barley tea into the stone pot to create sungnyung for you to enjoy at the end of your meal. They don't have a ton of people working, but service is still extremely attentive and speedy! read more

Hands down my favorite Korean tofu soup restaurant in all of Bay Area, coming from a native Korean! I've been here a handful of times and they're consistent in quality and service. They can get pretty busy during peak meal hours though. Off of a main street- you might have difficulty finding street parking. Interior is decently spacious with several nice booths and tables. This is one of the only tofu soup places I've been to in NorCal that gives you the small grilled fish for everyone and serves rice out of the stone pot that they pour tea water over for the burnt rice soup at the end (iykyk) similar to BCD in SoCal. Their tofu soups are super flavorful and authentic. I always get the combination tofu soup with medium spice to every tofu soup place I go, and this place does it so well. You cannot miss this gem if you're looking for solid authentic home-cooked style Korean food in SF! read more

Came here for dinner twice now and it's my new favorite tofu soup spot in the city! We got seated right away and food came out promptly after ordering. Service was super fast & friendly. They offer banchan and gave us seconds when we finished the first round, make soup out of the crispy rice left over in the hot stone bowl, and offer eggs to crack in your tofu soup. The tofu soup comes out boiling hot and is delicious with dumplings and your meat of choice. Inside is also a good ambiance and very clean. read more

Spectacular find for Korean food in SF! A very cozy, comfortable restaurant with a clean wooden interior, and such lovely service. We came in for a later dinner and our server was very sweet and told us to stay however long we'd like to enjoy our meal. Had the beef tofu soup which came with mushroom, egg, and such large chunks of tofu. I got the medium spice level which was perfect for me. The meal was nicely accompanied with the complimentary side dishes which included fried fish! I also loved how we were given the pot the rice was cooked in which had a layer of crispy rice at the bottom. Most definitely will be back again! read more

Tasty food! I really liked the bonchon and the tofu soup with beef was so tasty. The spicy wasn't that spicy though - but they do give you sriracha on the side. The bipimbap was huge and tasty. I ended up just mixing the tofu soup with the bipimbap. Would go again read more

June gloom is officially here in SF and so is soup season (which I suppose has never actually ended)! Korean food is still very untapped for me because I have such a mental barrier that it's just not good in the city, but I'm trying to turn over a new leaf. Luckily My Tofu House was a great foray back into things! To start, the banchan was fresh and plentiful (however, they either ran out of the little fried fish or stopped incljding it, sadly). I then had the combination soft tofu (mild was a bit too mild but luckily you can add more spice/jalapeños to taste later) which was hearty and full of beef, shrimp, and clam. It came with rice from a large stone pot that they fill with hot broth so that you end the meal with a cleansing nurungji (scorched rice) soup. I'd come back! Appreciated the friendly and attentive servers as well, and the relaxed late night (for SF standards I mean) atmosphere. read more

Love this place! Came here with a friend on a Saturday evening. The wait was kind of long because a lot of tables weren't cleaned up, but it wasn't terribly long. The waiters were very prompt and helpful. Even though it was busy, they always refilled my barley tea and it was easy to get their attention. The banchan here was great -- they gave us two fried fish each! Even at BCD in SoCal they only give you one. There weren't a lot of dishes, but the ones they had were tasty (my favorite was the cucumbers). We both got the Beef Kimchi Soft Tofu Soup at the level Spicy and the Beef & Vegetable Bibimbab at the level Spicy. It was definitely plenty of food to go around, we took home quite a bit of leftovers! Beef Kimchi Soft Tofu Soup: 4/5, comes with an egg! Maybe a little thin for my taste but still good flavor. Spice level was alright, but I do have a decently high tolerance, so maybe for others it would be hotter. Beef & Vegetable Bibimbab: 5/5, so yummy! The rice that got crispy at the bottom was the best. Good amount of meat and veggies, and the sauce was not overly sweet. Overall, had a great time here. I liked sitting at the booth since it wasn't too loud and you could still hear the other person in conversation. They also have a bathroom in the back that's decent to use. Definitely would come back if I were in Richmond! read more

My Tofu House는 정말 한국 집밥 같은 맛이었습니다! 순두부찌개는 깊고 진한 맛이 나면서도 신선한 재료로 깔끔하게 조리되어 정말 감동했어요. 반찬들도 다양하고 정갈하게 나왔는데, 리필도 빠르게 해주셔서 너무 좋았습니다. 직원분들도 친절하고 세심하게 챙겨주셔서 편안하게 식사할 수 있었습니다. 미국에서 이렇게 정통 한국 음식 맛을 느낄 수 있는 곳은 정말 드문데, 여기서는 제대로 된 맛을 느낄 수 있었어요. 한국 음식이 그리울 때 꼭 다시 오고 싶은 곳입니다! read more

AMAZING SERVICE!!! Our waiter was so so so sweet, funny, and attentive. My party of 6 came in on a Saturday night and they sat us immediately. We ordered: Dumpling Soft Tofu ($20.99), Pork & Vegetable Bibimbap ($23.99), and the Bulgoki ($38.99). For the food, I felt that it was very average Korean dishes and nothing was especially good. The meats were a bit rough and dry but I did enjoy the banchan especially when they brought out 7 fishes (usually, it's 1 fish per soup getter but they gave one to everyone + 1)! The tofu soup was not very flavorful and dumplings were mid. Overall, a very OK place. (i miss BCD from socal) read more

Not sure what happened to this place, used to be superb. We never walked right in and sat right down, there was always a wait but today we walked right in and sat down. The food was absolutely terrible. The tofu soup was tasteless, the banchans were absolutely basic and tasteless, the rice was overcooked and soggy and the prices off the roof. By the time the food arrived, we were full on the banchans and they weren't even busy. No more stone pot rice, no more fish, very tasteless food, very expensive, terrible banchans, please be like you used to be My Tofu House or we and others won't be coming back - TRUST ME! read more

Note that all tofu soups have fish sauce in it. Need to request vegetarian. Logistics: -street parking -accepts cc -limited indoor seating read more

We found My Tofu House through Yelp on a busy Friday night and we were so glad that we were able to get seated quickly. After we ordered, the banchan was served. The banchan came with grilled fish which is not common but was really good! bibimbap: I ordered spicy and it was not too spicy which I confirmed with the waitress so it was just right. The flavor was great and the portion was huge! Seafood soft tofu: the flavor for the soup was also great and good size I think what really set this place apart was the service. The waitress was really nice and caring. My friend choked on the fish bones and she was worried and made sure he got extra water. It really felt like we were family and I rarely if ever get service like that from a restaurant Will definitely be back to My Tofu House! read more

One of the best Korean tofu soup places in the SF peninsula! I was craving something soupy since it's still been cold in as spring is approaching. First of all, this place really loads up the side dishes that you don't have to ask for a refill! Ordered the spicy pork bibimbap (hot stone) and a beef tofu soup medium. The order comes with Crocker fishes like what they give you at BCD. Prices did increase here but the service is still amazing so 10/10 would come here again! read more

Place opens at 5 and they get pretty packed pretty fast so make sure you call ahead and ask what the wait is. The waitress was super nice and they were on top of everything with their service. You feel very catered to and never have to wonder where your waitress is at. We had soft tofu soups, the original and the seafood. The seafood soup was tasty but weirdly a bit creamy. It had about 4-5 shrimps and a good amount of clams so really loved that. We also got ramen added to the soup for just $1 and we are glad we did. The original of course was just beef and that was great! The soup was light but packed a punch of flavor. The medium spicy level was just perfect and not overpowering like other places I've been to. Also the banchan was all very fresh and had great flavor and they offer more once you finish them! I did have to take 1 start off because the pricing is a lot higher than other great tofu house in sf. $20+ per is a bit high for similar meals. read more

One of my new go-to spots in the city! Have heard friends rave about this place and finally decided to try it. Love the booths that they have set up and they also had various NBA games playing which was fun to watch Sides were plentiful and fantastic. The fried fish was an absolute hit. Not only was it super crispy, but also the fish meat itself was flaky and the bones are swallow-able (have a general fear of choking on fish bones, so this was so pleasant). They even offer to refill the side dishes if you run out Got the Original soft tofu with beef which came in huge portions and super flavorful--not too salty which I normally find with a lot of tofu soups. Paired very well with the rice and was definitely stuffed afterwards. I felt like the many components in the soup (egg, beef, mushroom, etc) kept the dish exciting and complemented each other well. After you're done with the meal, they fill the rice bowl (with some leftover rice bits) with hot tea, and you drink it almost as a dessert. Super unique and have never tried that before! Ashley was such a gem and had such a cheery personality, always checking up on us and making sure our tea was filled. Price point is also quite reasonable given the amount of food given. Will be back many, many times :) read more

You should eat here!! My friends and I came here for the first time and we gad a great experience. Wonderful food, thoughtful service and reasonable prices! There was plenty of seating on a sunny Sunday around 2pm. The restaurant is very clean and well kept. We ordered many dishes: vegetable pancake, chicken and vegetable bibimbab, vegetable soft tofu soup and the baked tofu and vegetable bibimbab. Everything was fantastic! My friend has an egg allergy and we asked if the pancake had egg. It did, and the waiter was incredibly gracious and packed up the pancake for us to go (for those with no allergy) and had the kitchen make us another pancake with no egg. We were so grateful for the hospitality! The waiter also came by mid-way to replace our empty side dishes, which was very much appreciated. read more

My Tofu House - Vegetable pancake - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Surprised to see a relatively low rating (3.8) for a place I thought was great. The baked tofu bibimbap was delicious. It comes with 4 large tofu pieces and an egg yolk in the middle. It's recommended to mix everything together before digging in! The pancake might sound ridiculously expensive (and i think it is still a little overpriced) but it is huge. We got the vegetable pancake which honestly tasted a bit like an omlette. Pretty yummy but not quite worth the price. Our server was friendly and funny, and the service in general was great. The place looks a bit old from the outside but on the inside it's quite nice with plenty of seating (lots of booths for group seating too). read more
