Service was also good since I was able to try a small sample of what I was interested in trying. The place overall is good and kinda of gives a feeling of good hole in the wall restaurant that can easily be missed. I got a spicy pork bowl which was very filling and they definitely filled it to the top. It tasted well and I did not have to add extra seasoning to it. Definitely worth a try. read more

Casual grab and go restauraunt with a couple of small tables. Food was delicious but I think it was a little expensive for what we got. I liked that each thing on my bowl was delicious, but the flavors didn't melt that well together. read more

My third 5-star review. Because the food always slaps at Seoul Kitchen. I crave Seoul Kitchen's braised beef and toasted rice whenever I'm in Redwood City. Add some fresh, healthy, fermented veggies, and you have a delicious, filling, balanced, healthy meal. Pro tip: Get the nori chips. Put some rice and meat into your seaweed sheet. Roll it up. Eat and enjoy. Now, repeat with the next nori chip. So delicious and satisfying. read more

First time here and pleasantly surprised! I ordered the BBQ chicken and spicy pork, and both were flavorful and satisfying. I also tried their noodles definitely a standout and something I'd come back for. The spicy sauce they offer is a must-try if you like a little kick. As a first timer, I really appreciated how patient the server was while I figured out what to order. The service made the experience feel welcoming and relaxed. One thing I didn't expect was that all the veggies were served cold not a dealbreaker, but just something to note if you're expecting something hot. The ambiance is casual and fun, with comic book themed artwork lining the walls. There's a bit of seating, enough for a small group to dine in comfortably. Looking forward to coming back and trying more from the menu! read more

Seoul Kitchen - BBQ Chicken Spicy Pork - Korean Near Me - Redwood City, California

Large and delicious food portions that we choose for dinner takeout. We chose the BBQ chicken, purple rice, bean sprouts and cucumber. I especially enjoyed the beef bone soup with pieces of oxtail meal and soothing and filling broth. Service was quick for a takeout. The only issue we had was parking which was expected since it was after 6pm. Otherwise a great place for a great meal read more

I rarely give bad comments about a business or restaurant, because as a former business owner I know how it is. This reason for the 1 star. 1. Food is cold 2. All the food was soggy and soupy. 3. Portion was small 4. Food containers with food on the floor. 5. Price too high. read more

Cute concept kind of like Chipotle meats korean cuisine. You can choose your base(rice, salad, OR JAPCHAE)/mix and match. The staff was very friendly and cute and explained us the process. Tried the braised pork and it was good. Toppings are limited tho. read more

Went here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. Casual place where you can customize Korean bowls. You can choose your protein, we tried the braised beef and the Korean bulgoli beef, a base (different types of rice) and some veggies. Some of the sides are a bit spicy, we skipped those as we're not great with spicy food. They also have a selection of condiments you can use to add even more flavor. Really enjoyed the braised beef, nicely flavored and the veggies were good as well. Portion size is generous and is easily enough for two meals. Interior is casual and welcoming. Staff were friendly and attentive when building our bowls. Would definitely give this another try. Great to go option. read more

Made a to-go order on a busy week night and the food was delicious! We ordered the pork + bulgogi beef and chicken +bulgogi beef bowls with kimchi, cucumber, carrots, and broccoli. It felt healthy and light; big portion sizes so can get multiple meals out of it. Thanks for the great meal! read more

A nice, fast, reasonably priced Korean "pre cooked" plate lunch place. You order at the counter and carry the plate with you to one of the long shared tables they have on site. Because it's pre-cooked, it's not going to be quite as great as a cook-to-order type meal, but we thought it was very reasonable all things considered. The taste was pretty good, the portion size generous, the the variety more than sufficient to get a good meal. The sitting area was clean and had utensils and napkins right there at the table. Water was available to self-serve and refill. A nice choice to just get a quick meal of Korean food on the go. read more

Great tasting food and very generous portions even when ordered through Doordash! Will have to swing by in person sometime!

The food was great! In my bowl I got white rice and japchae mix, protein: bulgogi, carrots, cucumbers, and kimchi for my banchans. I also got a fried egg for a little extra. Everything was bomb, I would definitely go again. I'd like to try the other meats, i will say the meat was a little cold and wish it was a bit warmer. For sauces I tried the Seoul Spicy Sauce and the Mayo Siracha and like both with my food. The service was friendly and chill. read more

Seoul Kitchen - Korean Bulgogi Beef - Korean Near Me - Redwood City, California

This casual restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating. It's located in the heart of downtown. There are limited parking spots outside the restaurant. However, there are plenty of metered parking spots on the side streets of this establishment. When we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by a friendly cashier. The food at this restaurant is premade. We ordered the spicy pork and the braised beef. The banchans we tried were green beans, radish, potatoe, zucchini, and seaweed salad. The spicy pork wasn't that spicy and they didn't trim off all the pork fat. The braised beef was flavorful and there was no fat, which I really enjoyed. The banchans were all good except for the potatoes, which lacked flavor. read more

We ordered at 10:30 for a delivery. Expected delivery was supposed to be 11:20. One of our drivers waited for 10 minutes before having to cancel because no one would speak to him. Ended up having another driver pick up the order however when he went to check the status they were very rude to him and yelled at him. I understand if it's busy but you should not be rude especially to customers. Our food was finally ready an hour and 15 minutes after the order was placed. This was not the drivers fault but restaurant. After hearing how they spoke to him, I will not be back or order again even if the food is good, you just don't treat others that way. read more

Good eats if craving Korean food. Didn't want to spend too much. Surprised to see gluten- free meat option on the menu as most often meats are marinated in soy sauce. Extra wait 10 min for braised beef gluten free. Everything is fresh and the ban chan choices were plentiful to choose from. Only thing missing is japchae! Maybe it is in rotation. read more

Food is great with quite a large portion! In my bowl, I had organic tofu with Korean bulgogi beef, bbq chicken, egg, Banchans like sprouts, mushrooms and broccoli. Also ordered the beef bone soup and japchae on the side. read more

Place is dingy. But that's fine. Lotsa dingy places still have good food. Nope not this place. Not fresh really gross tasting braised beef and bulgogi. The worst seaweed salad I have ever had. Everything seemed to be sitting for quite some time. Nothing tasted freshly made. I really wanted to like this place. I had seen a cop leaving with a giant Togo bag and thought I'd try it out. Mistake. Food was not appetizing. I love Korean food. Not this stuff. The employee was very nice. read more

Came in for a late dinner, 30 min before closing. Decided to eat my BBQ chicken at the establishment. The nice young lady kindly acknowledged me as I was entering the door, already a good sign of just being greeted. Choose white rice with kimchi, Cucumber and broccoli. Rice was cooked perfectly and chicken was still hot. Not bad for 16 dollars worth of Korean food which can cost a lot in the Peninsula. The establishment itself was clean and tidy. Will definitely return. read more

Swung by this place for lunch. They have a decent menu option for you to build your own bowl. My only con is that they could have added a bit more rice. It's white rice, would it really hurt the $$ to add a bit more? Pros... it's delicious ! The bulgogi was well seasoned. You get three small add-ons that taste perfect! The kitchen, radish, and brocoli were all just a perfect addition! I'll be going back for sure ! read more

I met up with my sisters at this restaurant which was midway between East Bay to the South Bay. You order off the monitor choosing the rice type, protein and veggies. I had the bulgogi white rice with all the veggies. The meal tasted good. The drinks were Korean and soda. I chose to be different with getting the fruit flavor. A casual spot for people to get a quick bite or meet up with friends and family. read more

My first time here and the food was soo good. Friendly service and I came at a good time when it was quiet and peaceful. I really like how open the restaurant is, their seating and lighting has a very welcoming feel. They prepare your food right in front of you which is also nice. They have a self service sauce bar which is rare these days so you can pick the sauce according to your liking. The meat tastes very fresh and you can tell it was smoked to perfection and still juicy! Can't wait to come back! read more

Very good food, good portions. The options we well balanced and the eat in/outside experience was excellent.

My favorite spot in Redwood City! The kimchi that they add in these bowls is perfection. This is the definition of comfort food. So delicious. They serve you a lot too so I usually end up having leftovers to take home which is always great. read more

We've been eating at this location for a few years now. It used to be called Hōm back in the day before it switched to Seoul Kitchen. Think of this place as a Korean Chipotle where you build your own rice bowl. I've tried the bulgogi and spicy pork and I think the spicy pork is better (although can be a little dry). The bulgogi is usually a bit drier and not that flavorful. I like the banchan selection they have here. My favorites are the potato (sliced thinly and very flavorful), kimchi, carrots, and broccoli. I always get the spicy mayo sauce on the side to pair with the food! They have a frequent buyer program which is cool. read more

I ordered a Spicy Pork Combo and the portion was HUGE, but the food was just alright. Spicy Pork: Not well marinated but still flavorful. My biggest complaint was with the amount of fatty pieces - I estimated about 25% of the pork was just fat. Cucumbers: My favorite part of the bowl, they were slightly pickled and super yummy. Green Beans and Kimchi were not noteworthy. read more

Not as good as used to be. Everything just seems premade and tastes too salty maybe because of the change of ownership or something else. What a loss for RWC read more

Never tried this. First thing I wanna highlight is the drink I got. The Seoul-mate ginger ale is too good. You can feel the taste of ginger while drinking. 5/5 for ginger ale. The main course I tried was the Organic Tofu with the veggies zucchini, broccoli and potato. The way these veggies are cooked is really gives you the flavor to the food. Chose the mixed grain rice when ordering tofu or chicken or pork. The combination of these is too good. read more

Located in downtown redwood city where parking is wherever you can find it like most downtown areas make sure you have meter money and time to find a spot. I ordered a veggie rice bowl (pic provided) with a side of nori-chip . 6 ingredients of your choice max. I put the hot sauce on the side. Everything was packaged beautifully. Fresh ingredients. The only item that wasnt to my preference was the string beans. They mix it with a spice sauce but unless you just love string beans I wouldnt pick it again. The nori-chips are not to pass up!! They make it in house and your taste-buds will love it! FYI I ordered through grubhub on a Saturday afternoon. Walking up it seems really narrow and small but once inside you can see how they utilized the space so that its not claustrophobic. Very clean and sleek modern design. Large tables for groups that you walk pass to get to the order station. You can watch them prepare your order but dont be weird about it. Despite the parking situation I plan on ordering from here again. read more

We were in the neighborhood so we decided to try out this restaurant. We ordered spicy pork with broccoli, potatoes, and kimchi. The pork was a bit fatty but very tasty. The potatoes remind me of hash browns but less oily and very pasty. The broccoli was a bit too crunchy. We also order bulgogi with mushroom, potatoes and zucchini. The item was good but could use more beef ;). The restaurant was clean. Our food was done before promised time but the service was not great. We stood around for 10 minutes without greetings or acknowledgement. read more

Seoul Kitchen salad bowls have a little of everything - healthy, tasty, sweet, refreshing. Toppings upon toppings on top of a base of cabbage and kale.

This review is going to be a cumulative score of my overall experience ordering through Yelp and getting it delivered. Yelp ordering was easy enough. I picked what I wanted including the option of 3 sides. I ordered the spicy pork with white rice. My 3 sides of choice were cucumber, mushroom, and seaweed salad. When I opened up my order, the portions were good. The amount of food was extremely filling. The pork had good flavor and the right amount of kick to it. The downfall was, out of the 3 sides I ordered, I only got cucumbers. I had received broccoli and something else instead of my other options. This was unfortunate, but I would have understood if I had received some sort of notice that perhaps the items I wanted were no longer available. My order was placed through Yelp via GrubHub. I was notified that my order was going to be delivered in the next 30-50 minutes. Fine, no problem. I was also notified that my meal would be left at the address for contactless delivery, but I should receive a text/call from the driver to confirm delivery. My food was delivered earlier than expected, but I was not contacted. If I hadn't stepped out when I did, who knows how long my food would have sat outside. read more

This is a fairly new Korean themed restaurant in downtown Redwood City. Essentially a Build your own bowl / plate kind of place with various bases , proteins and sides to choose from. Most of the sides are vegan and have Tofu as a protein option for vegans and vegetarians. They also had Japchae or sweet potato noodles as a special base when I visited. Prices are reasonable as well. Good healthy option overall. read more
