Had you guys stew very taste. The small Korean dish has it own San Fran twist - love the one made with broccoli. Kimchi is very light though. I only give 4 star as the services - the water seems very angry to customers while this I only based on my one time visit if things different I will update this review.Ok here I’m second time as the food is very good. I was here for over 20 min when there are 3 table empty. This place is runs extremely in efficiency.The water this time I don’t know his name but he is very nice and great services once I’m sit down.

Vegetarian options are awesome! We got Dolsot Bibimbap and spicy veggie soft tofu stew. Both are super hearty. Felt super clean and satisfied after eating! The staff is super friendly as well! Will definitely come back!

I just moved to SF and found this place two sundays ago and decided this would be part of my sunday routine moving forWard.Biz is run by a lovely korean couple. Food is delish — starts with side dishes (kale is to die for, followed by the broccoli and the kimchi). Have had the soft tofu stew on both occasions — i’m a soup person so this truly hits the spot. And as a drink, i’ve been going with Terra.

So simple, so delicious! Great healthy ingredients, authentic yet contemporary & light Korean flavors; tasted like a home cooked meal.The place is super clean and efficiently run.Ordered stone pot BBB with 2x fried eggs and kimchi pancakes - loved that they used light soy sauce for dipping.

We were really surprised how good this place turned out to be. Quality food that was well prepared. We ordered mung bean pancakes which were nicely fried and freshly prepared. A nice size appetizer that didn't fill us up too much. We got the bibimbop bowl w/ short ribs and the veggie japchae noodle bowl w/ steamed tofu. Both excellent and very flavorful. Portions and price were reasonable. The sides were good not great but not bad (that's why I didn't give them 5 stars). Service was polite and efficient. Definitely want to go back.

Hands down one of the best Korean restaurant in SF! The soft tofu stew is one of the best I've ever had. And the side dishes are also super delicious.

It was my first time dinning at this place. The staff was wonderful. I ordered the spicy ramen and chicken wings. The moment I took a sip of the ramen soup, my pallette burst into these delicious flavors. I ordered it very spicy and it was so good! You can taste the seasoning spices. Very flavorful and I totally recommend it. I came here twice just for the spicy ramen. Great place! Great food!

I ordered the bibimbap and it was very good. My friends ordered the FIre Bird's Nest and Spicy Beef Stew, respectively, both of which were excellent. I would definitely recommend branching out from the basic bowls like bibimbap and trying the spicier dishes.

Awesome food with some good vegan options. I love the Kimchi Stew

I live walking distance and this is my go-to. I have tried ordering from a few other places but none of them satisfies as well. Their food works well for take home/delivery. Here is what I like:(1) the bibimbap. When they do it to go, they separate the cold stuff from the rice and protein, so you can mix it when you are ready to actually eat. Super tasty(2) kinchi and seafood pancake. Theirs is thinner and smaller than most, so it may seem more expensive. But everywhere else I've ordered from is thick and starchy and floppy by comparison. Purple river wins!(3) the wings. With garlic soy. I love these.
