Nuri Fusion Street Kitchen is now one of my new favorite spots! This gem has been here for 10 years and I'm making up for lost time !! The vibe is amazing, the service is super friendly, and the flavors are seriously addictive! I love spicy food, so having a bunch of house-made salsa options is a HUGE win for me I could go on about the fried chicken (perfectly crispy), the super tender pork belly, the steak, or the Korean-inspired tacos with kimchi and wild flavor combos--but you really just need to try it yourself! Chips n guac, chips n queso, elote, nachos, Korean inspired tacos and rice bowls and loaded fries !!!! Salads and brussel sprouts - everything is a must try read more

We had such a great experience! The food came out incredibly fast, and everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. One thing that really stood out was the variety of vegetarian options--they had so many choices, and they definitely didn't feel like an afterthought. We tried several different dishes, including crispy tofu, veggie bowls loaded with fresh vegetables, and vegetarian bao buns, and every bite was delicious. The vegetables were fresh, the sauces were packed with flavor, and the portions were generous. Whether you're vegetarian or just looking to try something different, this is definitely a place worth visiting. The food was fresh, the service was quick, and everything exceeded our expectations. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

The food is fantastic especially how they infuse Mexican and Asian flavors. Some of the items on the menu are a little pricey but not out of the ordinary compared to other places. They do have a combo which includes two takos and a drink. We also ventured out to try other items on the menu. Their soda fountain was different with great unique flavors. The service staff were very nice and helpful especially since it was the first time visiting. Ambiance was simply decorated with different kinds of seating areas. read more

Our family LOVES Nuri! Tasty creative food made fresh and from scratch. So much healthier than most restaurants. And the owner is often in the restaurant making sure the service and food is top quality. We love the variety of takos, bowls, and salads. And you can use their app to order online. read more

Best Asian fusion place I have been to. The bistek mini tacos were very delicious. Lacked the avocado and queso fresco. Still good. The Korean karnitas were sweet and tangy. Pork very tender. The crunch from the coleslaw was a perfect blend! The gyozas (mandu or fried dumplings) were crunchy, sweet and the pork on the inside was very flavorful. I would highly recommend this appetizer There were so many different options. I also got me the chicken and fish tacos, very good as well. I was very surprised at all the different options and all the different dishes that I want to come back for read more

This place was cool to try. I love when the staff is patient with new customers. The employee that helped us took his time with explaining the menu and recommended we try the bowls. We went with his recommendation and we loved the food. I deducted a star because when I used their restroom the soap smelled like dish soap. And maybe that's not a big deal to anyone else, but it is to me. Casual vibe in the restaurant. read more

I'm usually weary of fusion foods, just because I'm a purist and I leave disappointed most of the time, but Nuri proved me wrong. They offer a great blend of Mexican and Korean. Friendly staff who helped walk us through their menu. We tried the Nuri tako, pork belly bao and Nuri frites with carnitas. The bao was amazing. A bit messy, but I'm not mad about it. The dough was perfect and fluffy. Well cooked pork belly. The sauces hit just right. The Nuri tako was fantastic!! The grilled meat we tender and moist. Not chewy. The sauces were amazing. The Nuri frite was bomb! I could've ordered that and been content. The kimchi was delicious, especially on the fries. It didn't even need the protein. The fries could be crisper to combat all the sauces, but doesn't take anything away from it right now. Another cool thing is they made their own sodas! I had a black Cherry. It was quite yummy. read more

Last time I come here was told by the individual who messed up my order that that I messed up cause she read back the order granted I walked away when she recited it. When I kindly informed them of this the at front who took my order came back to my table and blamed me for the issue like I was trying to get free food I advised she could take the plate she advised it was no worries as she was going to throw the plate away anyway when she came back to my table with the correct order she grabbed the plate from me and replaced it horrible service please get her trained asap last time I will be wasting my money here And to top it off the individual involved laughed it off with the manager if you'd like to be disrespected by untrained staff this is your place. read more

Food is amazing. I've tried all the tacos and all of them are great. El Bandido and Uptown Funk are my favorite. Salsas are great. The serrano one is flavorful and very spicy. Their bowls are also very good. Service is always great. Staff is composed of young people who are always kind and friendly. I like the fact that the restaurant's website lets you order in advance for you to come and pick it up. The place has a nice atmosphere. It has a great look with the modern decoration. read more

Nice little change of pace food was amazing service was good outside was perfect to sit out and enjoy the wind but it was fun read more

Nuri Fusion Street Kitchen - Kimchi fries - Mexican Near Me - Mcallen, Texas

The food is so good. It's unmatched. Unique flavor and taste. I'm never disappointed when I visit

Too salty. I ordered the Kimchi Frites with Pork Belly, and the veggies came through! Fresh onion, slaw and cilantro! The only issue I had was it was way too salty, and the fries soaked up the salt. Usually it takes salt away. I'm not sure if I'll order this again, but I will try a tako next time. Maybe this batch was too salty? Let's hope. I'll try one more time. Always give a restaurant a second chance. :) One nice thing is that Nuri's has outdoor seating! They are also keeping Covid 19 policies in place: masks required, social distancing and hand sanitizer offered also. Friendly staff! Much appreciated! read more

I am in town visiting and was recommended this place by a local. I loved my first experience so much, I came back again! The Nuri Tako is extremely flavorful and crispy. I love that they melt the cheese so the tortilla doesn't get soggy. The service was fast and friendly! Overall, the ambiance is welcoming, vibrant, and cool. Would definitely come again! read more

I've never even heard of this place until a couple of days ago after seeing it on Yelp! Apparently they have been there for a couple years now, but better late than never to have found it! It was so delicious and plan on going back as often as we can to try everything on the menu! Lots of options to choose from and even for vegetarians. Everything was great. They also have locally brewed beer to serve. read more

Delicious! Rice bowls were perfect. The chicken was good and the Korean Carnitas was more like pork belly a little too much fat for my taste but man the flavor is all there, steak would be the better option. You have to have your bowls with an egg to tie all the flavor in together. They prep the egg sunny side up, very runny on top but if you ask them they will cook it from on both sides to perfection. I definitely recommend you coming to this place. I'll be coming back for sure. read more

The food was great! I love how it's different than the average tacos here in the valley and adds diversity. I had the buns!

The best food I've had in days. Awesome in all respects. I had the special with fried chicken. Amazing. The extra cup of spicy sauce is really spice. Friend got Brussels sprouts. She loved it. And the side of quacamole and chips was yummy. Everything was fresh and flavorful. I'd come back any day. read more

Check the menu online. It's full of descriptions. Host is also very helpful in describing menu. We had the dumplings, taco with pork belly and taco with fajita meat. Everything was flavorful. Best option in the 10th and Trenton shopping area. Also a nice selection of 5x5 beers read more

The customer service was great when I visited. They were welcoming and someone was always checking on me. They were open earlier than 4pm unlike other Korean places in McAllen. I have never had a Mexican Korean fusion, but it was a nice first time. I think I still prefer straight up Korean, tho. The kimchee was a bit too salty and they used ribeye for my bulgari which was too fatty IMO. Service was fast and parking ample. read more

Food is unique and tailored to the valley's taste! You can't find anything like it, their Nuro Taco is delicious (though for a meal you need 2). I recommend The Yard Bird Tako- it filling and compacted with flavor. Must have side to share are their kimchi rice or fries, both are sooo good! The service is great and fast, and it's a great environment to eat in. Nuri is on the pricier side, but at least you know it's going to be good read more

Delicious restaurant! Great mixture of Korean food and Mexican food. Everything on the menu is delicious! From their tacos to their Nuri Frites! My favorite item on the menu are their frites, they are delicious! Fries with kimchi and your choice of protein. Delicious! Staff is very friendly also, with the restaurant manager ensuring you are content with your food. I always come here and will continue to do so. Food is delicious and service is fantastic! read more

Food and Service was good. Portions could have been better for the price. Desert was excellent. Good and friendly environment.

Drive by this place all the time and decided to give it a shot since both my wife and I enjoy eating Korean food. We've had Korean-Mexican fusion food before and it's always interesting to see how creative restaurants like this get. We both ordered a rice bowl, one with tofu and one with veggies. I had the one with veggies and brown rice. The portion is large, enough to get full. It came with a generous serving of sautéed veggies and was tossed with a soy/teriyaki/sesame(?) sauce blend. For a veggie bowl it was good but nothing out of the ordinary. The interior is really nice and spacious. Plenty of seating. Imported Asian beers are available. The menu can be a little difficult to navigate as the text doesn't flow well with all the colons used. An additional note on that, this kind of experience may be very new to people in the valley, so more photos may be helpful. read more

Nuri was surprisingly good. Asian fusion can be hot-or-miss depending on how much Asian and how much fusion. I would say Nuri is more Asian-inspired--actually Korean-inspired--than it is fusion. (Being Korean, I had my doubts.) One look at the menu and it is clear that the food is definitely not Asian: takos, fries, not quite Korean. I ordered a Korean Carnitas tako, split the bulgogi bun, and my party split a Kimchi frites. Everything tastes as good as I wanted it to taste. The carnitas was kind of a pork belly meat with Korean seasoning. The bulgogi was done well but just in a bun. The fries were great! More and more places are using kimchi as a topping and I might have to start doing that myself. I would definitely go back. read more

This restaurant has been open for a little over a year. And it still clean! The menu was simple but delicious and worth a trip to north McAllen. For a small restaurant with limited me y, the have a great selection of beers. A great after work hangout place, or in between meals. read more

I'm happy to see more Asian food in McAllen. I'm always open to fusion as well. This place has good menu options. However, like many restaurants in McAllen, it's too salty and there's way too much sauce. I think your flavors are great, but it needs the right balance. For example, the Brussels sprouts were drenched in sauce, so you couldn't taste the crispy texture it's supposed to have. The bulgogi tacos were okay. The bulgogi wasn't marinated with proper bulgogi marinade. And the toppings didn't blend in taste to create a cohesive dish. In terms of service, the staff are very kind. The interior is very cool and clean. I'd be more than happy to try this place again. read more

Had been wanting to come here for a while ever since I had tried the tacos when they had the food truck. I was looking forward to eating here but was not that impressed. I feel that they lost flavor and presentation once they opened a restaurant. It is a bit pricey for what they are. If you have never been here it is fine to try something different than the typical tacos that everyone else has. I ordered a stuffed jalapeno in which I got half of a half very disappointed and to top it of EXPENSIVE. This retsurant is not one that i can really crave and say let me go spend more than $5 dlls on just one taco. read more

Went a second time... got their tacos. I didn't think they were that good and thought they were kind of overpriced. read more

I really really loved Nuri. It was on the pricey side, but I found the food to be really delicious, very unique for RGV, and totally worth it! The restaurant is modern with a fantastic layout that's fun and lively. They have a great selection of drinks (alcohol and non-alcoholic) and a pretty diverse menu. I ordered the rice bowl with pork belly and got the kimchi fries with the Yardbird to share with friends. It was A LOT more food than I was expecting, and it filled me up really quick. The rice bowl was delicious; I would highly recommend spending the extra money for an egg on top and kimchi! It's also great to add some sriracha for that extra kick. The meat was crispy, the sauce the right balance of savory with a hint of sweet, and balanced out great with all the vegetables. The kimchi fries were also AMAZING. They have such a great sauce which seems to be a spin on chipotle mayo with that extra hint of kimchi. The yardbird is cajun fried chicken, and it is so crispy and flavorful and pairs really well with the fries. Tl;dr: Korean mexican fusion that is absolutely delicious! read more

Nuri Fusion Street Kitchen - Kimchi fries with yardbird - Mexican Near Me - Mcallen, Texas

Went in the evening and sat in the patio which is dog friendly. The action was inside, but it's away from the street, so it's nice and quiet in the patio. Ordering takes place inside - they give you the option to tip when you order, but you have no idea what service you're about to receive. They do deliver your food to your table and then pick up when you're done - but that's as far as they went. The tacos are so good! Tried the yard bird and Nuri taco - both were amazing! The yard bird definitely seemed like it was heartier since it is fried chicken. (Tacos not included in photos but 2 Nuris would equal 1 Yard Bird... The tacos should really be made equal size) Chips are made fresh and reminiscent of Chili's chips. I ordered the queso and it was pretty good. Ordered the pork belly rice bowl - it was good, but sweet. My boyfriend loved it since he's a big eel sauce fan. The "j bomb" looked good on a previous photo I saw posted on yelp. Once it arrived, it was nothing more than a jalapeño popper smaller than the ones from H-E-B and it was priced at $2.25 Will definitely return for another yard bird and to try the fajita bowl and Nur-ita. I'll be skipping the j bombs! read more
