    The return of one of my favorite restaurant in Reno. I used to go to Tofu House when it was on Moana. I didn't take a picture of my tofu soup. The assorted tofu soup was full of that umami flavor and lots of beef and seafood. The seafood pancake was loaded with scallops, calamari, baby octopus, and shrimp. A real delight if you love green onion. My husband got the bulgogi bibimbap and he said it beats the other restaurants in town by a landslide. We will be back.

    Chicken Teriyaki / 치킨데리야끼
    Brandon W.

    We had a wonderful dinner yesterday evening at Tofu House with friends, where we ate a variety of their entrees. I had the Beef Bibimbap which includes a bowl of assorted vegetables over white rice with Korean chili paste serve served with a fried or seasoned egg, we then enjoyed their crispy fried chicken which was delicious (fried whole chicken - half-and-half) , chicken teriyaki entree, along with their soup (forgot which one, with many assorted flavors from beef to veggie, tofu and pork) in which my wife and friend Goose would have. Service this evening was okay. Our waiter who was also our cashier didn't quite have that warm customer service embrace one expects or wishes to enjoy, when visiting a restaurant--definitely a change from our first visit (this being my second). The ambiance or vibe of the restaurant was sober, calm with a few patrons including a friend I hadn't seen in a while enjoying their meals. There are no TVs or background music I could hear, just food and conversation which isn't bad at all. Overall, we really enjoyed the food, but obviously we hope the customer service experience improves and engagement feels a bit more warmer, tried or an effort is made for us to feel we're welcomed there. Check them out however, solid eats otherwise.

    Soft tofu soup

    Such yummy food. I got the tofu soft soup. Spice level 2. We also ordered pot stickers and wings. Can't recall what my husband ordered. It was a lot of food. Would come back. Bring a sweater. They had the AC blasting.

    Restaurant was in a new plaza so was clean and parking was plentiful. The food was good but we've had better; we were visiting from Los Angeles where Korean food is everywhere. I imagine this place would do good if there are not many Korean places to eat in the area. Portions were large to share. Service was fast and mediocre, they were not as nice as I thought they would be for a new place and wanting to attract new customers. All the dishes were not bad but not really good either. The best dish was probably the fried chicken.

    Fried Whole Chicken - Half&Half
    Richard W.

    Great find for authentic, fresh and tasty Korean food in Reno. The owner/proprietor is well versed in allergies so def bookmark this spot as an allergy-friendly establishment. They don't take reservations, and there aren't that many tables, but the wait was very reasonable and you can sit in the adjacent poke eatery, as they are co-owned by the same family. Bonchon comes in a single dish with six sections. I like that they have sample sizes so that food isn't wasted and at the same time we asked for extra Kimchee and they obliged promptly. Assorted Soft Tofu Soup Soft tofu, assorted seafood, beef, mushroom and zucchini. I chose level 2 (out of 4) spice level and that was just about right. Everything was great, but I did wish that the plain rice was purple grain rice instead. Fried Whole Chicken 18 pieces plain or Korean chicken sauce or half and half. The Korean sauce is sticky and sweet - great for the first few bites, but it does bog you down after a bit. I don't regret getting the half and half but next time, I would get no sauce - which is more traditional and very delicious. We aim to return next time in Reno - service is friendly and the food is great home cooking. I highly recommend Tofu House for anyone needing an authentic Korean fix. That's all.

    Pork Soft Tofu Soup
    Zach L.

    An absolutely delicious bowl of food! We started with the wings and the tofu nuggets, both delectable. And then I followed that up with the pork tofu soup which was stellar. I've been here 3 times now and am always impressed. Happy to have such a great spot down in South Reno.

    Cold noodle

    I think I may have just found the Korean restaurant that makes me forget I'm not in Los Angeles. You know that feeling when a place nails the flavors so perfectly you swear you've been dropped right into K-Town? Yeah, that happened. Upon walking in, the restaurant was spotless inside. It was clean, comfortable, and inviting. My group of 3 also went at an off time on a Friday, around 2 pm and there was only one other group there which was great since I've heard that it often gets really busy. Now let's get to the food! The beef short rib soup was comfort in a bowl. The meat was fall-apart tender, the broth incredibly rich and layered. One spoonful and I immediately started texting my cousins who live in LA (and the ones who I go on Korean foodie adventure with) about how good this soup was. I honestly wish I had a bowl right now! The spam and kimchi soft tofu stew was a warm, spicy, savory hug. A solid and satisfying dish that hits the spot every time. The cold noodle (naengmyeon) was so good it isn't even on the main menu! It's a specialty with its own poster so be sure to look around to find it. It comes with a side of galbi which paired perfectly with the refreshing noodles. I have been looking for a Korean spot in town with good naengmyeon. I had a friend with me who has never had this before and she said it was her favorite dish! The spicy pork bulgogi was tender, flavorful, and balanced with just the right amount of heat. I liked that the pork wasn't super fatty. The steamed egg was the only dish that was simply just okay. Could've used a bit more flavor but it was cooked nicely. Now for the star of the show, the seafood pancake! This pancake was top 2 of the best seafood pancakes I've ever had, and it might even be tied for #1. I usually tap out after one polite bite of seafood pancake, but this time? I demolished half the plate without hesitation. Crispy edges, perfectly chewy inside, packed with seafood, and seasoned to perfection. Truly unforgettable. It's so nice to have a good Korean spot in town and I can't wait to be back!

    Beef Bulgogi / 불고기
    Kayla A.

    Deeply satisfying, fresh, and delicious! Our first time in- we had both the Beef bulgogi and the Short rib stew. The selection of ferments, and small bites before were amazing. Relaxed atmosphere and attentive service. Definitely will be back when in south town!

    Food was relatively fast to come out. It was hot with good tofu and veggies. I had the japchae, and my wife had the soft tofu & seafood soup. Service was good. Ambience was a bit "strip mall", but heck it was in a strip mall, so what the heck. I would come here again. The two entrees plus the six assorted banchan pickled veggies totaled $41. If I was not observing "dry January "!I would have ordered an extra large 20oz bottle of beer for $8.

    The place isn't too big but it can sit a lot. There's free parking as well. The food was delicious - soup was so good! Perfect for the cold weather. There were two employees working. The lady was very nice, the guy seems like he doesn't want to be there or didn't want us there. Tried calling his attention twice when he was nearby - ignored. Then he would step away while we were still talking. Was still far away from our table when he asked what we needed.

Portion sizes were generous, but the salt level made the bulgogi inedible. (Koreans really don't put heart-attack levels of salt in their food.) I ordered delivery, and since I didn't want to throw it all out, I boiled it in a ton of plain water, and it ended up with a still almost salty broth. I kind of regret doing that because my lips are actually numb from all the salt regardless. And calling the very bland kimchi and sesame oil cabbage "banchan" is an insult to the amazing and simple but delicious banchan usually served at Korean restaurants. And what Asian restaurant messes up rice? It was both too mushy and too hard...ew. I have no problem with fast food versions of different cuisines, but I would have been better off throwing this food out. It's really a shame because I was initially very excited by their menu. Two stars instead of one since the fried rice cakes were delicious. I can only hope the rest of what I received was made by a last-minute substitute cook and not the usual fare.

We went on a Thursday night, and the restaurant was probably about 45% full, so it was busy but not overwhelming. When I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly worker. I let her know I was meeting friends, and she allowed me to go find them and take a seat. The restaurant itself was nice, clean, and had a comfortable atmosphere. Our server was also very nice and brought us menus while we waited for the rest of our group to arrive. Once everyone got there, we started with a few appetizers. We ordered the fried dumplings, popcorn chicken, and I got the kimchi soup. The soup was delicious, and the dumplings and popcorn chicken were both really good too. Honestly, I could have ordered multiple rounds of those alone, but we were there for Korean BBQ and did not want to fill up too much on starters. For our first round of meats, we ordered beef belly, bulgogi, spicy chicken, and garlic pork belly. The food came out quickly, and it arrived on a robot, which was pretty cool. All of the meats were great, but the garlic pork belly and bulgogi were definitely the standouts. For our next round, we ordered those two again along with Hawaiian steak and chicken galbi. Once again, everything was tasty. We finished our final round with more beef belly, New York steak, and miso pork belly. By the end of the meal, we were completely stuffed. To my surprise, our server noticed that one of my friends had brought me a birthday gift bag, and the staff came over and sang happy birthday to me. That was a really nice touch and made the night feel even more special. Overall, this was a good experience. The food was fresh and flavorful, the service was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the birthday surprise was appreciated. I would definitely come back.

    From start to finish, it was an outstanding epicurean delight…read more Our group of five fierce women completely and absolutely enjoyed every moment and every bite of the beautifully presented dishes.

My favorite three were the ahi tuna, the black cod and the brilliant asian/french mash up of red Bean Creme Brulee. I also need to mention, I loved the lamb tenderloin.

To start, you can't go wrong with the enthusiastic welcome we always receive. Then quickly seated and wine poured. The 2026 CNY menu was fabulous, with some great surprises. The ahi tartare portion anywhere else would have been a shareable appetizer. But each person was served a large portion of delicious fresh ahi. Mmmm this course and a glass of wine could be dinner alone any other evening. The soft creamy rich egg custard was hidden under a thick seafood gravy. I really enjoyed this unique dish. The miso black cod is always flaky and delicious. And the crab fried rice it's nestled on also never disappoints. The rich New Zealand stir fried lamb and shiitake mushrooms over pea shoots was a fabulous hearty dish on this chilly March evening. The braised short ribs were so tender no knife was needed, they flaked apart with the fork. And the e mein noodles were perfectly al dente. The dinner wrapped up with a crème brûlée that only Kwok's could pull off - red bean. Creamy smooth. Not overwhelming. The perfect burnt sugar layer on top. The regular menu is just as delicious. Small inside seating area, so recommend always make a reservation. In the summer there's a fabulous patio area out front. Limited street parking.
