This place is SO overpriced! I would only come here during happy hour because the half off on appetizers and drinks is a pretty good deal. The food was alright and they give you big portions. The appetizers were ALOT. These are the dishes we tried: - Bulgogi Fries: The fries were so large! They kind of just put the sauce and meat on top and they didn't really stick to the fries but overall I thought it was a good dish. - Spam Fried Rice: My friend ordered this and it's an appetizer so it was only $4 with the happy hour deal! I was very suprised at how big it was, it looked like a normal sized portion so I don't know why this is considered an appetizer but hey, I'm not complaining. Friend said it was very ordinary though. - Kimchi Fried Rice: I ordered this but it's not an appetizer so it was kind of pricey. Overall I liked it and the sausages in it were very juicy and seasoned but I don't think it's worth the price. The flavor was decent though. - Spam sushi thing: Don't remember what this was called but it's basically a sushi roll with spam inside. Good portions and friends said it was yummy! - Bibimbap: Also not an appetizer so don't think it was worth the price. They do give a large portion though; we ended up taking half of it to go. Sauce was just the right amount of spice. They also give free side dishes but they were kind of lacking. :( No fishcake or potatoes??? There were only spinach, kimchi, and bean sprouts... just the healthy ones I guess haha. Overall, I'd recommend just coming here during happy hour and ordering only appetizers. They will fill you up! read more

SKK, I don't know what to do about you. Friends & I managed to eat at you once, right up to closing before dashing out to watch a movie. But really, how am I supposed to bring my innsooommmnia aoaoooa, feels like inssoooommnia aoooaoa friends around once we've wrapped up the daytime stuff and gotten into the night agenda, when you close at 9 pm? I want to get back in and try your other dishes, and I want to reprise that funky curry golden toasted tofu bowl thing I hastened through the first time. I realize that the Embarcadero Center mall isn't exactly a hot spot for late night places, but... you're Korean. "C'mon, son." Can we work out like a 10 pm truce (even though that's still not late enough) or something? Or still shut down at 9, but let my friends and me go around back, give some dude a fist bump and nab a little take-out? You know what, SKK? When you get this, hit me on the text and we'll go talk it over at Wooden Charcoal or somewhere - some place that straight up STAYS open. Paeeyce read more

Stone Korean Kitchen - Duk bok ki/stone wings half & half/sides/kalbi/cheese corn/buigogi = yummy yummy in my tummy ;) - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

It was my first time trying out this place and so far they didn't disappoint. I was craving for something super crunchy and yummy so I ordered their crispy tofu (their house soy sauce did the trick of making it taste much better), chicken katsu, and croquettes. I love all of them...it totally satisfied my crunchy cravings. Even their kimchi and appetizer salad on the side is super yummy too. Their staff, the server and the cashier are all so friendly and have such great customer service. I'll definitely come back to also try the rest of their menu. I'd recommend this place for those who are craving for Korean cuisine. Thanks to the cook who made my food extra crunchy and yummy. Thanks to the server who offered me great service and a super enthusiastic attitude! I love her energy! She made my night less stressful from all the crazy stuff I see in the news. read more

Came here during lunch time, plenty of seats Which means no wait time, awesome. I ordered bim bim bam, the portion is huge, with all sorts of veges and meat, and one nice sunny up egg. The taste is very good. This place is a little pricy comparing to Korean restaurant in peninsula area. But it is San Francisco, everything is expensive. read more

Met up with my girlies to have lunch after a morning of spa-ing. My friends have been here before but were raving about the chicken wings. I looooove me some chicken wings so I was excited to try it. We shared: Fried dumplings (?): These were surpisingly tasty. Sashimi rice salad - A great, simple salad. Comes with white rice on the bottom, lettuce, radish, some carrot/daikon pickling, and tuna sashimi. Stone Wings - The lived up to their expectation. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with a very tasty, sweet, yet tangy sauce to them. Very addicting. We ordered two orders for four girls.. It was barely enough. lol We also had a stone bowl of the kimchi fried rice. Very flavorful. Go there! Try it! But don't forget the chicken wings! read more

I was lucky enough to sample many of their small plates as I went with a very large party. The stone wings, crispy tofu, and jap chea were all very delicious. The bulgogi fries was surprisingly good as the fries were not too fried yet warm and crispy while the beef added a good flavor. The side plates especially the spinach was yummy, but the kimchi and sprout were also delicious. For the entrees, I decided with dol sot bi bim bap with rib-eye. The stone rice bowl keeps the dish hot and has generous and delicious portions. TLDR; Place makes me full. Dol sit bi bim bap is slighly expensive, but a good buy. The small plates are a little pricy, but must try the bulgogi fries. read more

Although it's not authentic Korean food, Stone Korean Kitchen offers a refreshing and healthier twist. For starters, their side dishes include kimchee, cucumbers, and beets. You can try their miniature seafood pancakes and steamed dumplings. Moreover, the "Krazy Korean" is tasty version of the Hawaiian loco moco with angus beef patties, 2 sunny side up eggs, kimchee and rice in a hot stone pot to cook and crisp things up. You can even get brown rice with it. Service is fast and friendly. However, you can't be seated until your entire party arrives. The ambiance is simple and clean. Parking can be tough on the street, but there are nearby garages. read more

Solid a-ok. The banchan were nice, not the freshest, not the best I've had but decent. I had the seafood tofu soup - very comforting, hot, a little spicy, pretty good, again not the best I've had, I think the tofu could've been a little fresher, plenty of seafood though. We enjoyed the lychee cocktail in a carafe - woo! Nice taste and a whole lotta fun! Service was a-ok. Decent, prices are good, the place was packed on a Thursday evening, good location. I wouldn't rush back, but if I was in the area and was in the mood for Korean food, I might come by. read more

Having had significantly superior Bi Bim Bap in an Asian shopping center food court, I was not overly impressed by the food. The location & view are great, the setting is casual - I was craving a bit more decorative flair, service is attentive & polite. The stone wings were the best part of my meal. Like I said, the stone pot was not impressive - it had barely enough meat & veggies. For 15$, I can make my own pot of white rice at home so don't be stingy Stone Kitchen. The seafood pancake appetizer was also good, but not worth the full price. Happy hour 1/2 off was just right for the 4 little guys. Decent place, but I have had way better Korean food both in SF & elsewhere. read more

Wow this was surprisingly good! I never ate Korean before but the coworkers suggest coming her for lunch. We ordered calamari and crispy tofu for appetizers. The calamari is ok. Not as good as the chinese salt and pepper calamari but good enough. They used the firmer tofu for the crispy tofu. I was hoping they used the silken ones because they taste good fried. Eh, it's still good. I had the fried chicken bi bim bap w/o the egg (sorry I don't like eggs). The chicken wasn't really fried (no batter). It reminds me of sesame chicken. Still good. I liked how the rice at the bottom of the bowl was crunchy. That was like eating chips! I don't find the portions to be small. It was just right. Yes it's more expensive but it's still good. Service was meh. We were sitting in the patio so we didn't get a lot of attention. I wouldn't say it was bad but don't expect people to fawn all over you. read more

I was pleasantly surprised how good the food tasted, the portions & the price, which was very reasonable. My friend & I ordered tofu stew and bi bim bop to share and there was plenty for both of us. The tofu stew & bi bim bop was very flavorful! I wish they served the purple rice & beans with the stew instead of white rice. I would definitely go back to try more of the menu. read more

Overall, this place is overpriced for the quality and quantity of food they provide. We ordered three things, 1) Korean Fried Chicken: Had two actual pieces of chicken covered in a thick layer of batter to disguise the lack of actual meat, and two pieces of just fried batter, on top of some average potatoes and kimchi. This was $17-19 dollars lol... 2) Tofu Soup: Not great, not bad. 3) Bulgogi Fries: Basically a giant plate of microwave-like fries on top of maybe 1/2 cup of bulgogi/actual beef. Everything came out to be $60... Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere for some reasonably priced, yet delicious Korean food. read more

I'm not quite sure what Stone Korean Kitchen is aiming for. Is it trying to be somewhat hi-end korean food like Namu with all the fusion and experimental ingredients or is it trying to be more of a traditional korean spot were you can just get down with some good korean food an drink. To be honest I'm not sure what I go there for. It wouldn't be a spot for me to pick to eat korean food and get soju. I would not bring a date here to impress her. It wouldn't even be a lunch spot. However, I find myself here quite often for happy hour. And this is when you should go. The BOGO drinks (beer/wine) are an exceptional deal, and the special of the day is usually pretty good for HH prices. Today it was bulgogi fries. Excellent use fo bulgogi and house cut fries. They also had a Taco Tuesday special. Good Kalbi Tacos...although at $3 a pop, it doesn't seem too much like a special. The combination of drinks and food always makes for a good happy hour. One big issue for me is that their Infused Soju mixers just aren't that good. Almost all the places I go to drink blended sojus have their own take and all are pretty good (i.e. VIP, Porno Palace, and Toyose). I want it to be good, cause its the closest thing to work, and I would love a place where my friends and I can just go and shoot the night away. And thats another thing, its served in tumblers. Harder to shoot... Everything else was okay. The minimized decor gives it a sterile feel, and unfortunately it spills over onto the food as well. read more

*** I'm writing this review a little late*** A western take on Korean food. For $20 it's not really worth the price. My coworkers and I came during lunch and there was a ridiculous wait time to get indoor seating (it was super hot that day and we wanted AC). We opt-out for take out. The chicken was decent, it's not amazing and you won't rave about it to your friends but it's well flavored. The bulgogi fries were a major let down. As a fries lover, it did not do anything for me. The fries were not crispy and the bulgogi topping did not mix harmoniously. I rather have them as separate dishes. I wouldn't recommend. Service was mediocre. I guess it's because it was a busy afternoon. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back. read more

Stone Korean Kitchen - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

not a great KR restaurant, which is very disappointing. very few veggies in the bi bim bap and why is there corn? it's not ramen! the spicy sauce was not at all spicy and he banchan was three little dishes. location is great and service was okay, but this is not authentic Korean and should be much better. read more

Cute, casual Korean food right by Sue Bierman Park! We went with a group and got the cheesy corn and chicken wings for an appetizer. They were both delicious and addictive! I also had the chicken curry for an entree and it didn't disappoint. Also, this is a small detail but I noticed that they serve cold drinks in frozen glasses, which was nice. I'd say the only negative was that their menu advertises things like dessert and daily specials and they didn't have any of that when we went there. read more

Lots of outside seating. I came for lunch and ordered take out so I could enjoy the weather near The Embarcadero. They had my food ready in less than 5 minutes. This was impressive considering that they were almost at capacity for their indoor seating. The food was very good, but it's not hard to make a Korean rice bowl taste delicious. However, they get four stars for how quickly they were able to get the food to me. read more

"Korean fried chicken" lol they literally put three small pieces of fried chicken chunks on top of a bed of potatoes with some mayo dipping sauce and call it KOREAN fried chicken? C'mon man.... I had no expectations coming into this place as I'm a Korean having eaten Korean fried chicken in LA and Seoul, but this was beyond disappointing. They should have just labeled it as three pieces of chicken karaage (Japanese) cuz that's what it was. This dish was beyond small and the cost of making this dish is probably less than $0.50 . But the price is the same as the dolsot bibimbop ~$18, which had MORE MEAT btw, even though Korean fried chicken is a MEAT-centric dish... You can't put KOREAN fried chicken on the name and then not serve it with a Korean sweet and spicy sauce. Please don't order this dish because if you do, you're going to try to get full off potatoes (and you're not going to be full) and be disappointed and then think that this is what KOREAN fried chicken is like the rest of your life when this is clearly not. read more

We came here to eat at lunch, and it was really good. Is the first time I eat Korean so it was an experience, I liked the food. Is a lot though, if you don't eat much I recommend you share it. We ordered stone kalbi ( my favorite), stone bulgigi, and bi bim bap. Try it out of you can, is a good experience. read more

This review is strictly for the happy hour only (5pm-7pm). In my opinion, Stone is definitely one of the better places to go for happy hour around the financial district. All of their small plates and alcohol are 50% off. You can get a pitcher of beer for $12 or a bottle of Soju for $7. That is basically unheard of in SF. Food wise, we had the jap chae, duk bok ki, original fried chicken wings, spam musubi, and bulgogi fries. With all of them being 50%, we got multiple of each appetizer. To be honest, they were all delicious and definitely work the price. I recommend getting whatever you are in the mood for because odds are, it's gonna be a lot of food for a little amount of money. There's a bunch of outdoor seating but if it's like a regular SF day, it may be a bit cold/windy since they don't have any outside warmers. Inside it can get quite busy and a bit packed so if you have a big party for happy hour, I would probably recommend going outside. Be sure to check them out for your next happy hour if you like Korean food or cheap alcohol in general! read more

My co-workers and I were looking for something quick - we had an hour to grab lunch and eat. We went on a Friday during the lunch time rush, around 12:30p. It took us 10 minutes to get seated, 10 more minutes before we got water, another 5 before we flagged down a waitress to take our order. Finally after an hour of waiting around, we got our food. The sampler appetizer was good but not worth $12 - just get the wings and call it a day. The bulgogi beef was quite tasty and a relatively good portion. Honestly, the disappointment for me was the bibimbap with ribeye. It lacked flavor, and oddly contrast in texture despite having grated carrots, shredded meat, runny egg yolk and the rice underneath. It melded together into a mess that became the lesser of its parts. If you're looking for something quick or Korean, go somewhere else. Your taste buds, wallet and sense for good service will thank you. read more

Stone Korean Kitchen - Bulgogi! - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

The Good - our server who was great , the fried "Stone" chicken wings, and the bathroom The Bad - The " soon du bu" (soft tofu stew) that my wife ordered. She didnt want spicy. the end result was it tasted like water or nothing really. It sounded appealing to my wife she loves seafood - but it was the blandest thing on Earth. She barely eat the meat in the soup. Maybe it's meant to be spicy, but still, non spicy should have some flavor. Oh the water tasted like cucumber so if youre into that, great, if not, such as myself...YUCK The Ugly - The "bulgogi" .. okay it wasnt ugly but , my mind is on the Clint Eastwood spaghetti Western classic Its a pile of sliced rib-eye over green onions. It was like Mongolian beef ..and it tasted okay. Nothing special The verdict - if you want Korean BBQ, dont come here. If you want to try something different and take a chance, try it. Order the Stone Wings.. maybe two orders !! :-) Oh well, we tried and it wasnt a home run. The ice cream for dessert was better.. but we didnt get that here ! read more

Expectations were set too high from the to-go menu. Bibimbap was overpriced and mediocre. FOOD: Description of Dolsot Bibimbap ordered via Eat24: our signature sizzling hot stone rice bowl served at 500°. Seasonal vegetables, sunny side up egg, steamed white rice, and your choice of: rib eye, grilled chicken, or crispy tofu Actual "Dolsot Bibimbap: - I have never been able to order dolsot (stone bowl) bibimbap to go (searing hot, heavy block of stone to go, please!). I was excited to see how this would be done--perhaps, I thought, they will let it sit in the stone bowl before dumping it in the to go container. Alas! It was regular bibimbap (all the fixings, none of the crunch and sizzle from the stone) in a container ill fitted to support its weight (seriously huge portion). The description on Eat24 described this dish containing "seasonal vegetables," which manifested as greasy, raw cabbage. There were no other vegetables to speak of apart from the banchan I added. The meat itself was too oily for my tastes and overwhelmingly sweet. It was supposedly rib eye, but I had the feeling I was eating ground hamburger throughout. The portion itself was huge (2 meals worth for me), but at a restaurant that bills itself as higher end, I would have preferred quality over quantity. SERVICE: Very polite! Even offered me more banchan :) . AMBIANCE: For being so close to the waterfront, Stone doesn't take advantage. I would have hoped they would put the customers facing the water and the greeter at the door facing the street (locked). On the bright side, the people there longest can enjoy a nice view throughout the day :). Perhaps I was paying a premium on my dish for the view--in any case, I won't be back for the food. read more

We used to love this place, but the new chef is a complete disaster. We order Korean Fried Chicken, and instead of what you would expect (something like Bonchon?) you get flavorless chunks of fried breast meat where the breading has zero sauce or flavor ... all over kimchi and potatoes? The curry we used to love and now it's weirdly bitter and unappetizing. Their udon is actually some sort of weird Italian fusion dish that makes absolutely no sense. Owners! Please ... bring someone in who can cook authentic Korean food before this place goes belly up! There's no reason for this to continue! read more

I ordered 4 things. Seafood pancake, corn cheese, mild soondoobo and Kimchee fried rice. I I received 4 spicy flour patties, fried tofu, spicy soondoobo and meat fried rice. LITERALLY NOT A SINGLE ITEM WAS CORRECT. I am a pescatarian who cannot eat spicy food and I literally cannot eat anything they sent. This wrong, small amount of food cost me $70. I called the restaurant and they said they took the liberty of changing my order for me because they called seamless who they said ok'd it. A woman with a Mexican accent refused to let me speak to a manager. I called seamless asking for a refund since none of the and they said they had to call the restaurant. 5 mins later they came back online asking for more details. They said they could not give me a refund because I was speaking with customer care and not customer experience. Then they called the restaurant and the lady refused to pick up. Customer care at seamless then said they couldn't do anything and forwarded me to someone else. As I type, I am still waiting. You can try to hide tonight lady, but I know where you are. DO NOT EVER ORDER FROM THIS HORRIBLE, UNRESPONSIVE, UNACCOUNTABLE AWFUL PLACE. read more

I was disappointed with the food here. I was expecting spicy with all the red pepper flakes in my food but I was deceived. No flavor or spices to the food. The seafood pancake was more of a crab cake. meh, Where my scallions at?! Dumplings we're hot (temperature wise), but could have use some salt and pepper to spruce it up. The only thing worth noting was the Tuna Poke Tostadas - fresh fish on a nice bed of avocado and veggies. I'm disappointed that the banchan (side dish of cucumbers, spinach, and kimchee) because it just lacked flavor overall. BUT +1 for friendly service. read more

I walked past today looking for lunch and a nice glass of wine. Stone was fabulous. It is right next to the beautiful fountain and the Grassy area of the Embarcadero. Very peaceful with lots of people watching. I had the salmon steak which was beautiful and basically a portion for 2 for only $20. I also had 2 beautiful glasses of wine. The service could not have been better and they were very safe in wiping down the table before hand. I loved my meal and it's nice to have Korean food outside with a beautiful view of the ferry building. I can't wait to read more

I came here with coworkers for lunch last week and ordered the soon du bu because I was in the mood for a nice, hot and spicy soup. Also because I love soon du bu and was really looking forward it. However, it fell short of my expectations. I felt it was too salty and was missing the rich, seafood and meat flavor that a good soon du bu usually has. I wished I had gotten the bi bim bap that another coworker got, which would be what I get next time if I ever make it back here. The server was nice but he was not very attentive and we had empty water glasses for the last half of our meal. He also didn't seem to know the menu or Korean food very well. It is pretty pricey for lunch, so I expected a better service and food than what we got. read more

Stone Korean Kitchen - Good BBQ three eye ribs - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Disappointed tonight. Loved this restaurant as safe during covid with outside patio with views of Embarcadero Plaza fountains and wonderful, even reasonably priced, food. Tonight it still OK but only that with less tasty food, smaller quantities, fewer side dishes and little beef in the Bo Bim Bap. Still decent but no longer exceptional. When we left I noticed the cook had changed and that's probably why. Hope he will get better or they bring back the former cook as we used to go here fairly often. Or maybe the new one will learn. Sorry they didn't just increase prices a bit with inflation. read more

Located right off the Embarcadero BART station, Stone Korean Kitchen has been a great place to meet up with friends, who are young professionals, craving for a happy hour to relieve them of their work-related stress. Happy hour is currently from 5-7 pm every weekday, and I was pleased to find that it wasn't super crowded as I was able to reserve a table for friends around 6 pm on a Friday night. Whether you prefer indoor or outdoor seating, the restaurant boasts a nice view of the clock tower and nearby pier, allowing for overstuffed happy-hour-goers to take a walk and help digest. I've tried most of their happy hour items and I would recommend the bulgogi fries, fried calamari, seafood pa jun, glazed pork spare ribs, and the spicy & citrus wings over the sweet & spicy wings (get both though). All of the soju flavors are tasty, but I think the lychee is the best! All of the mentioned food items and soju pitchers (normally $22) are half off! All of their beer is half off as well! I have ordered enough to fill up a group of 5 friends with hearty, fried foods and intoxicating dranks, which totaled up to a bill of $160, but ended up being just $80 after happy hour pricing. If you and your friends are looking for a whole night out in San Francisco, Stone Korean Kitchen is definitely a good starting point for eating good fried foods and pre-gaming with pitchers of soju! read more

I've eaten here many times, probably around 15 if I had to count. The food here is on par with other Korean restaurants in the city. My favorite item on the menu is the KBBQ, which I think are well marinated and cooked. The meat is not too chewy either. I've also tried the sundubu and spam musubi (which they no longer make). Both were also great. The bulgogi bibimbap is also well made, and is a rather large serving size. The location at the 4 Embarcadero is nice, especially the outdoor seating. All in all it's a place I keep going back to from time to time if I want Korean food while in the FiDi. read more

I'm just going to start out by saying that the food here is awesome! I don't eat meat anymore so most of what I consumed was either seafood or non-animal based, but it was super yummy. I was with out it town guests from Germany that had never tried Korean food so I thought that the Stone Korean Kitchen would be a good start. Me and my husband on the other hand had (before I stopped eating meat) been frequent AYCE Korean BBQ eaters so I believe I'm a connoisseur of the meats and a wide variety of banchan. We ordered tons of food and drinks. See below. The drinks 1. Pitcher of ice cold beer 2. Pellegrino 3. Coke 4. Soju cocktail (I had this. It was deliciously sweet, if I had more than one I probably would have gotten drunk). 5. Hot tea (I always get hot tea with my Asian food). The food 1. Crispy green beans (So good! Tempura fried and crispy. Just the right amount of batter so that you could still taste the green beans. They were also had the crispy crunch that comes from being fresh). 2. Cheesy corn (I loved the crispy edges that formed in the pan this dish was served on. I found myself talking too much and enjoying the other foods that the corn got cold. It was still good so I kept eating it even though I was plenty full by then.) 3. Crispy tofu (Fried well and there was not any greasy flavor or feel. I dipped it in the spicy mayo that was supplied with our calamari and that made it fun. There was a lot of tofu so be sure to share.) 4. Calamari (fried just the way I like it and with light seasoning. It came with spicy mayo and perhaps a spicy pepper sauce. I'm actually not sure if the red pepper sauce belonged with it as there were so many dishes that maybe it was for the green beans or something. Doesn't matter, it was good with and without the sauces.) 5. Seafood cakes (I didn't even notice it on the menu so I was glad someone ordered it. They were very flavorful and definitely something I would suggest a pescatarian to try. Not too fishy tasting either. They reminded me a little of the crispy salmon croquettes my mother made growing up.) 6. Stone wings (3 orders) the traditional and the spicy version. (I didn't taste these because I don't eat chicken anymore but from the looks of them I'd say they were meaty and fried up just right. The German teenager that ordered them said they were delicious but not too hot. She likes her food really spicy. Her brother thought they were too spicy.) 7. Bulgogi (Came with a serving of rice. Bulgogi was always my favorite food when I had KBBQ so I had to taste a piece. It was great! The meat was tender, not tough and full of tendons. Getting served too many poor grades of meat is one reason why I stopped eating meat. I like that the sauce it was marinated in wasn't too sweet, it was just right.) The Banchan we were served were great accompaniments too. The pickled cucumbers were slightly sweet. The kimchi was spicy and not too sour. The bean sprouts were my favorite. They were salty and had a nutty flavor. I would eat the sprouts again as a side dish. I'll have to explore the menu more next time. I was trying to get items that my German friends could enjoy that were within their comfort zone. They loved it all, but I want to try some things that I haven't had when I visited the AYCE restaurant. I'll try the glass noodles since they say I can replace the meat with tofu. I'm already craving more green beans already so that's for sure on my list for more. Maybe I'll start eating meat again by the time I'm back in San Francisco so who knows what will end up on my plate. I've got to give props to Brian, our server, for putting up with our large table. We did a lot of catching up with each other, we asked lots of questions and didn't finish eating until the restaurant had closed. I appreciate the patience of the entire staff and their positive attitudes. read more

Got served cold bibimbap. Wasnt that good even after they reheated it for me, probably in a microwave.
