This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot.

Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself.

I felt really let down after going here. The bibimbap was kinda bland and the portion was smaller than I expected for the price, my freind said the same about her bowl. Service was slow even though it wasnt that busy, which is frustrating when youre on a lunch break. Definately not somewhere I feell like going back to anytime soon.

Fantastic First Experience with Korean Cuisine! This was my first time trying Korean food, and as a vegetarian, I was quite skeptical. However, I decided to give it a shot and chose this place—and I’m so glad I did! The dishes were absolutely amazing. The kimchi fried rice and kimbap were beyond delicious—so flavorful that it’s hard to put into words how much I enjoyed them. I was thrilled to find vegetarian and vegan options with no meat or egg, making it a perfect choice for plant-based eaters like me. We also tried the tofu stew, which was decent, though it didn’t quite match the other dishes’ wow factor. Overall, a delightful experience that exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be back to explore more vegetarian-friendly options!

Honestly I just realized, I forgot to review my favorite Korean restaurant in the bay. They just really make my 김치찌개 Kimchijjiggae differently.. I could say it taste like how my grandma used to make it. Their staff is really nice, Portions are great. Must try their seafood pancake and or Mungbean pancake. Even their chicken is great ❤️

Food is delicious. Got a hot spicy pork belly bibimbop with mixed grains. Unbelievably yummy, although careful with the hot bowl! You also get soup and small dishes (like tofu) with the food. Service was great. They were quick, efficient, and considerate staff! The inside aesthetic is relaxing, my only complaint it the floor is SLIPPERY. Just the floor material makes it hard to grip in certain shoes (I do not recommend heels here!) Overall amazing spot!

Haven’t been to this place for a long time. They renovated the entire restaurant and seating spaces are not crowded as before. Food quality is good and I love they always have variety of vegetables in the sushi roll and also buckwheat noodle salad. They provide variety of side dishes too. Good service and friendly staff too :) The special multi grain drink is also a traditional Korean drink which I do not find in other restaurant.
