    My friend recommended Seoul Bowl Kirkland, and I'm very grateful for that. And of course, a big thank you for the delicious food and excellent service. I'll definitely be coming here often!

    Seoul Bowl was selected by one of customers for a late office lunch. It's centrally located in Kirkland making it very easy to get your lunch and quickly get back onto the expressway with ease. I really appreciate the FANTASTIC customer service, and options for every dietary preference. Ordering online can be tricky if there are a number of specific preferences, but the service at this location is so efficient that ordering in just as convenient. The atmosphere and overall design of this location is really nice and clean. My tofu bowl was PERFECT! I will definitely return, and highly recommend!

    Wings

    I got the Seoul Bowl Family Pack, which is supposed to feed 4. It comes with 16 wings, bulgogi cheese Fries, 8 mandu, and 4 sodas. Staff were friendly and food was prepared quickly. After ordering and receiving your food, there are tables inside where you can sit down to eat. There are also little plants on the tables for sale if you feel inclined to purchase one to bring home. Wings were covered in sauce and very flavorful, fries were very thin and stringy, and mandu were good. Would come again for the wings!

    Wanted to try this place for some time and I was pleasantly surprised that the food is tasty and comes with large portions. The chicken wings are so crispy and the sweet & spicy sauce is a must have. The staff was very nice and patient in explaining what we can pick. I picked beef bulgogi for the rice bowl and come with over 10 types of toppings. It has a young vibe and they played loud K-pop music.

    We stopped here to grab dinner as we had a couple of friends over and they wanted to try this place. We been to the location in Seattle before and thought it was good and this place was consistent. We place the order through their online system and the food was ready by the time we got there and it was fast and smooth. My friends got a couple of pork and chicken rice bowl which seems hefty and flavorful. We got: the tofu salad bowl --- good flavor, good portion Fried chicken combo - came with fries and a side - the fried chicken was good, had a good crisp. The fries was decent. Side of rice cake - they fried the rice cake first and then dipped in the rice cake sauce - a little too chewy for my taste. Overall, a pretty good place to grab food as the price was reasonable as well.

    3.5 I like this place for their portion size. The bowl could easily be two meals in my opinion which would make it decent bang for buck and it's relatively fast since they just make your bowl in front of you. Obviously fried stuff takes more time though. It's definitely more fusion like given they have many different sauces and sides to add. I got the sweet soy and hot and spicy sauce and didn't taste much kick in it. My wife thought it was a little spicy though. A decent bowl, but also just seemed okay. Nothing blow your mind. The kimchi was kind of weird tasting. The honey butter chicken with cheese is similar to the "snow" Korean fried chicken you'd see. The chicken meat was super juicy and had a pretty great flavor. It came out super hot so watch out for the roof of your tongue. Workers are pretty nice. Stuff that doesn't affect my review : seems the speakers in this place are kinda messed up. The music will randomly jump in volume and then back down.

    False advertising :(

    Solid 3.5/5 We always come here for their Korean fried chicken - it's our favorite spot for Korean fried chicken in the area. The batter is so crunchy and the chicken always comes out juicy and tender. We've tried a few of the flavors, my fav is the Seoul chicken and the sweet + spicy! The reasons why I took off points were: - Just a little misleading that the manager did not honor their marketing promotions on their website. We saw a $1 wing promo and swung by for happy hour but they said it was no longer a thing even though their social media said so. We ordered the wings anyways, just disappointed in their false advertising. - the bowls are okay, not all the ingredients tasted super fresh all the time. I'd recommend coming here for the fried chicken over the bowl. I'd still get the bowl when I'm craving korean flavors because there aren't many korean restaurants in the area. Service - The lady behind the counter today was so helpful and sweet!

    Custom bowl
    Elocin A.

    Food is ordered on a kiosk, which makes choosing items very simple. Kiosk is easy to navigate. Food is incredible! My custom bowl tastes how I want. Food is always fresh, and delicious. Less than $20 for a full custom bowl of healthy meats, veggies, and killer sauces. Just remember to bring cash, as their kiosk has no forced 15/20/30% tip, actually no place to tip, but these guys deserve it!! And an Excellent Rating by Health Dept!

    These folks probably need another great review like Elon Musk needs an increase in his allowance,…read morebut fairness demands that I not keep silent regarding my enjoyment of this restaurant: THE ROSES: Ample dedicated parking. The staff is gracious, prompt, professional, and - I hope no one objects when I say this - rather attractive. Generous portions and reasonable prices for what you're getting. The food is nothing sort of legendary - bold flavors and dishes have the perfect balance of sweet, heat, savory, and umami. THE THORNS: None significant enough to mention. NEITHER ROSE NOR THORN: It is important to note that this place is insanely popular with the area's Korean community. The restaurant is quite busy Thursday thru Sunday, and significant waits for a table are likely. Monday thru Wednesday is your best time for going and getting a table without a wait. The price of some dishes, like their signature offering, Kalbijjim, might give you a pause ($80+). It is important to keep in mind this is made to order, and one serving can easily serve four regular appetites. If you're just a couple, you're definitely going to be taking this home with you. This is not a bad thing, as Kalbijjim is one of those dishes that is even better the next day and doesn't suffer from reheating. THE VERDICT: Daeho Kalbijjim is extremely popular, and it's not hard to see why. The execute authentic Korean cuisine pretty much flawlessly with efficient and charming service. What else to you want in a restaurant? Highly recommend. Just try not to go on the busy days.

    I wanted to give this place a second chance because I know a lot of people really enjoy it, but…read moreunfortunately my experiences were underwhelming. As i always say go try it for yourself. The first time I visited, the quality of the meat cuts didn't impress me, and the soups lacked depth of flavor. I'm not talking about needing more salt--the broth itself just tasted flat. When you're paying close to $30 for a bowl of soup, I think it's reasonable to expect a higher level of quality and care to ingredients. The second visit was a mixed experience. To be fair, I was in the wrong. There is a clearly posted policy stating that your entire party must be present before being seated. My group was about seven minutes away, and since I had already checked in on Yelp and there were only two parties ahead of me with no one physically waiting, I asked if I could be seated and order while I waited. I had already been standing inside for about 10 minutes. I was told that although tables were available, seating me ahead of the other parties on the waitlist would be unfair. I understood the reasoning, but she had also asked prior for my order. Her explanation left me confused so i sheepishly said I understood the policy. She already seemed upset by the time i had gotten there. Sometimes we have off days i get that. This place is clearly hit or miss, I've got friends who absolutely swear by it. For me, though, it wasn't anything special and didn't justify the price. If you're looking for Korean food in the area, I've had better experiences with higher-quality dishes elsewhere, especially in Lynnwood.

Not because it's just "better than the other dishes" but it was truly amazing, it just had a great taste to it! Soup was yummy too and came with clear noodles Proportions are to the smaller size making prices a bit high but banchans were refilled quickly. Recommend because their food had its own special taste/ dishes that you will remeber it by. Was a fun place to eat and staff was friendly!

Bon is located in the same plaza as H-Mart and so they have a shared parking lot or you could walk over from Redmond Town Center which is just a block away. The inside is surprisingly large with at least twenty tables, which is bigger than most Korean restaurants that I've seen on the Eastside. At 11:45am on a Saturday, my group of three had no problem getting a table. Their menu is extensive and has all the Korean food classics including seafood pancake, soondubu (stone pot tofu soup), galbi jjim (beef stew), Toppokki, bibimbap, and cold noodles (spicy and non-spicy versions). Their entrees are around $20 each, but some larger hot pot dishes (meant for 2-3 people) can be up to $70. I ordered the BULGOGI BIBIMBAP (~$24). Unfortunately they don't serve stone pot Bibimbap here, but the portions are large and beautifully presented. My dish came with plenty of fresh vegetables- pickled carrots and cucumbers, sesame bean sprouts, daikon kimchi, lettuce, and marinated black mushrooms (which I've never had in Bibimbap before but was soooo good) on top a bed of fluffy white rice! The egg was cooked perfectly over easy and the meat was marinated well too- I do wish the dish came with more meat though. They give you your typical sweet and spicy gochujang red sauce on the side as well as white vinegar and mustard sauce for added flavor. Service was fantastic and you get complimentary hot tea and ban chan (which are refillable). The ban chan included cucumber kimchi, daikon kimchi, sesame bean sprouts, kimchi, fish cake, and sesame choy. All employees were very friendly and made you feel at home. The inside is clean, but the only reason I'm giving them 4 stars is that they have an Okay health rating and not a Good or Excellent health rating. I didn't look up the exact violations, but it would be great to see an improvement in score. Overall: 4/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 3/5 for atmosphere

If you can imagine a mashup of both a regular fast-food joint and something you see in a K-drama, you get the overall interior of this place. They even sell macaron ice cream sandwiches near the front! We did have to wait just a little bit even though the restaurant wasn't a full house. Menu consist of fried chicken, chicken sandwiches, teriyaki, yakisoba and stir-fried veggies, and there add-ons and alternatives to choose from for some of these. We all got their chicken sandwich with regular fries, though one of my friends and I decided to get it on hot spicy crispy instead. The spice wasn't actually too bad, it was in fact a nice oomph to the meal. I was surprised that the "patty" of the burger was actually two separate pieces of their crispy chicken instead of just one. Now this wasn't too big of a deal, and the chicken itself was tasty but it was dry and there was a ton of sauce inside the burger, so the rest of the burger condiments slipped out easily as I was gripping the sandwich to my mouth. One of my friends experienced the same thing as well with his meal. On the plus side, the fries were appropriately salty, and were very filling. Everything looks small here but you get full really, really fast! The surrounding area is not the best place to find parking to get here because of the lack of spaces, so street parking in the vicinity and even farther out close to Tanaka is advised.

When we had left just a few minutes shy of 12pm, the restaurant was full and there were a few parties waiting outside. The staff were very attentive and would immediately replenish our radish if we were low. The jjamppong and jjajangmyeon tasted fine, if anything the jjajangmyeon was a little sweet. The fried rice however (without the jjajang sauce) was pretty bland and a bit dry. I don't know if it's intentional because they give the sauce on the side but I'd like to have the rice taste good without the assistance of the sauce. Other than the bland and dry rice, my only other nitpick would be that the jjajangmyeon came out a lot later than the other dishes. Otherwise we paid around $117 (without tip), for five dishes and two appetizers, which I think is pretty good for this area.
