Tacowa - Bimbimbap - Korean Near Me - Boca Raton, Florida

First, thanks and kudos to all those restaurants that remain open during COVID-19 2020! This means you Tacowa! The pros: The Kimchi Fried Rice with the beef bulgogi was . It will definitely be a reorder. I don't even have a photo because we just dug in! Ordering for pickup through Yelp was super easy and the order was ready on time! I'm interested to try the Kimchi pancake next time. The cons: I had the Kimchi Bowl on a prior Uber Eats delivery order. I was not in love. It was just "okay." The Kimchi fried rice on my second order was definitely so so much better. On the pickup order we also ordered the Garlic Honey and the Sweet/Spicy Korean Fried Chicken. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt here and say I probably would have liked this much better in a dining in experience (but we can't do that in these COVID times). They did they best they could...the boxes were vented and then they also vented the plastic bag they put the boxes in. Alas, the KFC was steamy and wet by the time I got home (less than a 5 min drive). We tried to save it with a little oven time, but it was no use. It was not crisp and delicious any longer. So if pickup is the only option I'd say skip the KFC for now. We were also disappointed the LFC was chunks/nuggets and not on the bone drummies. It almost makes me not want to order it again because of that alone. Back to a plus....the KFC portion was very healthy definitely enough for two people to split one order. So if you just like good quality chicken nuggets with nice flavor and aren't concerned about that crunch...you'd probably like these...especially the Sweet/Spicy flavor! read more

My top spot if you are craving Korean food in the Boca area. This place is casual but looks like they recently did some renovating so it is clean, upgraded and inviting inside. Ordered the kimchi bowl for lunch. Good price for delicious food and very filling! I would definitely recommend this spot. read more

Korean food in East Boca...a match made in heaven? A sentence you'd never think fathomable in years past! Tacowa has managed to create a diverse menu that offers pretty much all your Korean classics and favorites, all the while not feeling overwhelming. Bimbimbaps, kimchi and seafood pancakes, ramen, and even Korean fried chicken. Of course let's not forget the Korean tacos, it feels like they've seriously covered it all. I have a love hate relationship with Korean cuisine, so it is to my delight(and relief!) to discover that the food quality at Tacowa is as authentic as it gets. From the flavors to the textures, all is technically sound. They've even stocked the fridge with Korean tea's and beers! It's awesome to see Boca continue to diversify itself. With its super friendly staff, fair price point, and casual space, Tacowa is destined to satisfy both Korean food lovers and those looking to try something off the eaten path. See what I did there? ;-) read more

Everything was good but didn't see any side in my food. Que lastima que no den sides con la comida eso me encantaba!!!

We came for dinner. There's outside seating where they have the Korean bbq grill or inside seating for regular dining. Servers are nice and attentive. We ordered the kimchi fries ( with bulgogi , kimchi , mangas sauce ) , bulgogi ramen ( perfectly seasoned , with soft egg) , honey chicken( little salty for me). They do have bingsu too. Will try that someday. read more

Food is delicious. Service was perfect This is our second time eating in this restaurant. My wife and I shared the bipbimbap in the stone bowl. We waited as usual to get the rice crispy. It was divine having it this time with shrimp (not on the menu). Since it's a small place the chef was very accommodating. We love this place and we say it should not be overlooked‼ ABSOLUTELY EAT HERE I rate it a 4/5 only because I reserve the 5/5 for a fine dining experience, with cloth napkins tablecloth, and waiters with jackets or a tie. read more

Super great service! Lovely outdoor patio setting. Generous portions. Nice presentation. The only problem is the meat in my two tacos was coated with slightly uncooked cornstarch which was pretty unpleasant. read more

They have some really delicious Korean tacos here! Glad to find a place like this in Boca. Overall, I would give them a 4.5 out of 5 rating. The Food: 4.5 out of 5 I really enjoyed each of the 3 tacos I got. Each one had its own unique sauce and flavor. The soft tortilla and the ingredients were good, and really complemented the taste of the meat. I also enjoyed eating the fried chicken, which was battered chicken breast that was super tender and juicy. This can be a bit too spicy for some, so may want to ask for a milder sauce or the honey garlic sauce. My recommendations: 1. Bulgogi Taco 2. Korean Fried Chicken with Yangneum sauce (sweet & spicy) 3. Spicy Pork Taco 4. Shrimp Taco The Service: 4.5 out of 5 You order at the counter and get the food brought to the table. Very friendly staff who came to check on the food to make sure it was okay, and very quick service. They were also nice enough to give me a half portion of the fried chicken. The Space 4 out of 5 Decent room, mostly tables for groups of 2 or 4, but this can be rearranged. Nice and clean. The Price: $$ Worth it? For sure! Gotta come check this place out. read more

We were at this restaurant about 2 weeks ago on a rainy, dreary night. We had seen the review of this restaurant on "Checks Please", and thought we should try it. There were three for dinner, and we were the only three in the restaurant. The in side ( dining area), was void of any ambience. You can't eat ambience, yet it's always better if it says something to the consumer. We studied the menu, made way too many selections and waited for our food. My first complaint if you will , is that the waitress saw us "struggling" with our selections and never once offered to assist us. She could have said we ordered too much, yet never helped. We asked her if some of these dishes which were written as "spicy", could be lessened somewhat, and her response was no .Ok, the food came quickly, with one selection on top of the previous one, giving none of us a chance to breathe. The food? Well, it wasn't our cup of tea if you will. Nothing stood out warranting a "isn't this great" comment? I've had Korean BBQ ( overseas) during my business trips, and this wasn't it. All in all, it was a night to forget. Sorry to say this, and I wish them success. read more

Worth the drive! I don't get down to Boca often, but when I do, I can be assured that Tacowa is going to satiate my appetite! Between the kimchi fries, succulent galbi dolsot bibimbap, and fried tteobokki, I couldn't ask for more... except for more room in my stomach. Cute restaurant, great service, and amazing food makes this a winner in my book! Next time, I wanna try the kimchi fried rice and Korean fried chicken! read more

Tacowa is an unassuming local kind of place with great Korean food and good service. You'll enjoy stopping in.

The food from this restaurant is consistently amazing! While I've only ordered delivery so far and haven't dined in, every order has been incredible. I highly recommend this place. read more

Excellent Korean BBQ options served traditionally or on tacos. I had kimchi fries, a bulgogi taco and a fried chicken taco. Loved everything I had. Great flavor. Two things of note - My friend got the spicy seafood ramen soup special and wasn't that impressed. There's free water to the left of the cashier area. I got a water bottle not knowing this. read more

I was craving Udon noddle's, and Asian cuisine in general, so we were planning on trying another place when we found this one. I remember visiting this location once before and it looked different, did they remodel or is it a whole new restaurant? Location Located just outside the heart of Mizer park. Very busy streets and parking is an adventure, especially if you want free parking. Decor Adorable, they have these white high booth toward the back and some outdoor seating with a cover. Menu There is a lot to choose from which can be overwhelming if you are not familiar with these types of food. Everything sounds delicious too. I decided tog o with Bimbimbap stone bowl and my friends went with the BBQ Bulgogi Bibimbap - I think. The food. Mine was delicious and very dry. If it wasn't for the side dishes my friends ordered I wouldn't have liked mine as much. With that said, the Bulgogi Bibimbap they had came with a miso soup that is heaven sent. I've never tasted anything so flavorful! It is a popular dish and I can see why. Price $$ - but worth it for the amount of food you receive. Would I go back? Yes, we all really enjoyed it and I want to take others who haven't been so we can try more items off the menu. read more

The food was delicious. Authentic Korean food. The service was so sweet. They were very quick, friendly, and attentive. Ambiance is very cozy and quiet. 10/10 would recommend to a friend. They also gave us Korean hand cream! The sweetest people ever. read more

One of my favorite spots on the east side of Boca, hands down. I grew up around a Korean family growing up and I still call their sons my brothers till this day. As a kid it was really difficult to fully comprehend and appreciate the cuisine I was around all the time. The fermented veggies and pickled condiments just did not appeal to me at 7 or 8 years of age. But, as we get older and experminet the world opens up. Ok, enough of my childhood and right to Tacowa. When this place first opened I know the focus was on appealing to the masses who might not know a lick about Korean food. The fusion tacos was their calling card and its actually what I ordered the first time I was there. But this place has grown since opening day. They have expanded on the menu to include dishes like the seafood pancake. By the way, that pancake is the bomb. Excellent if your a seafood girl or guy. My go-to is the Bulgogi (beef) or spicy pork Bibimbap. For those that do not know, it is a dish that was originally prepared in Korean cuisine out of necessity because it really is a mish mosh of ingredients. It was a dish eaten in rural areas because of its cheap price to prepare. But, in current times it is recognized as a rice dish, mixing in various vegetables, soy sauce, soybean paste, an egg and different meats. Again, it can have many twists. However I can describe it, there is no doubt that Tacowa does it right. Extremely tasty and filling. I love the Bibimbap here. My second dish I really have an affinity for is the BBQ spicy pork. It is a nice spread of house salad, miso soup, side dishes, white rice, and, of course, the sizzling BBQ pork. The tangy and slightly sweet pork is magical. When it is combined with the fish cake, and of course the kimchi, man you have a good meal. Two people can definitely tackle this dish for sure. I've tried almost everything on the menu and I can definitely say there is not one item that I do not recommend. Maybe it is because there are no Korean restaurants around but Tacowa answers my craving. Would a true Korean BBQ restaurant work in Boca? Not sure, but I am glad Tacowa exists. They are doing the cuisine right. read more

WOW! Fantastic Korean food. Fresh and tasty. Great spot on in East Palmetto Rd. Cute outside seating area to watch the sites go by. Clean and friendly staff. Now to the food....

Went in there with a friend of mine. Worst food/service. They don't speak English, The meat for bbw was not marinated nor seasoned and they don't bring any sauce, when we asked for some sauce, they brought one in a tiny plate for the whole table. The rice is hard and old and all the small plates of side dish were tasteless. When we asked for a check, they split the bill in half and added 18% service charge to the each check without asking how we wanted to split the bill. read more

You can't go wrong with anything on the menu though. They also have hot plates outside so you can cook yourself. The owner is a cool guy, their prices aren't bad, and the portions are generous. Everything about this place is great. Highly recommend. read more

Their new location is so much larger than their last location, but the only downfall is the crappy parking situation! The food is pretty freaking good. My wife had the bulgogi bibimbap with the stone pot and she loved it. She said the crunchy rice at the bottom of the hot pot was the cherry on top! I had the honey chicken rice bowl which was also very good. Everything has great flavor and tastes delicious. We also had the kimchi fries to start which were the spiciest thing ever, but they were delicious! The service was really good as well, and the server was attentive. Will definitely be back! read more

I didn't think they would make it a week.... But every time I stop by, there are more and more customers. Is Boca really ready for HIGH QUALITY ramen, Bulgogi, Kimchi and.... yes, Korean tacos? They better be, because I feel the momentum of Tacowa taking over East Boca! The ramen broth is super rich and delicious. Try it with Tofu (not on the menu) or get it loaded with Bulgogi... make sure you try the kimchi pancake! Staff is super friendly. It looks like everyone is family and related. They take the business serious and the quality of the experience shows it. Price is excellent, enough that I could eat dinner here every day! read more

Spent sometime looking at the menu and sat down after we ordered. I ordered bulgogi bibimbap because I had never had anything like that before. It was delicious, also got the shrimp tacos on the side and they were absolutely yummy, in fact we were just talking about coming back because we were craving the tacos so that's saying something! read more

Finally found a new go to Korean bbq restaurant! Great food and experience. We were in the area and decided to try out Tacowa. The indoor seating is a nice however air floor is not great-one of the servers mentioned that there is an acetone smell as it is right next to a mail salon-so we opted for patio seating. Lots of different dishes to order. There were many complimentary small side dishes with kimchi, bean sprouts etc that are provided. The soft tofu appetizer, galbi and spice pork was delicious and surprising the tofu ramen as well. I would definitely recommend coming here for Korean bbq. Staff were very friendly and efficient and we will be having many more meals here! read more

Best Korean food in town! Everything is so flavorful and delicious. Service is great as well! Thank you Tacowa!

Nice local Korean bbq/taco joint in downtown Boca. Although close to mizner, not too fancy and well priced food. We ordered Kimchi fries as an appetizer and they were delicious! Crispy & flavorful. Only complaint would be the portion. Also tried the chicken, shrimp, and bulgogi tacos.... 9/10! Tacos are a must if you come. Last thing I tried was the sweet and spicy chicken rice bowl. Was left a little underwhelmed. The portion was solid but it didn't have a lot of variety; rice, yummy chicken, and spinach. Will be back for the tacos. read more
