Been eating some crazy stuff while on vacation and that gave me an upset stomach. Came here because I wanted to find some good homemade Korean soups to help my stomach ease back into things. They made me the seaweed soup and it was perfect. I also got bibimbap and the mix of side dishes and vegetables made me feel much better already. Clean flavorful delicious and wonderful people

Mama mama Woo-hoo! Great stop for tasty Korean food. I balked at the high prices per plate initially, but the quantity of the food is decent for the price and the server really piled on the sides.

Visited Hawaii recently and took a Chance and stopped by the ( google ) highly rated mama woos ! DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Highly recommend the mama’s special - you will not regret it. That’s the first pic , second is the chicken plate . Very plentiful! Comes with four sides each ? for the sides we loved the potatoes which were super tasty , the cabbage with red sauce, as well as the fried egg plant ? YUM . Service is also amazing! She was so nice and patient . We asked many questions. It is carry out only but we didn’t mind, we ate in the car . We appreciate the small businesses , especially ones like these that serve your plates so generously! Keep it up Mama Woos! Texans love you! Next time we’re in town, we’re going back.

My wife found this Korean restaurant - perfect for a take-out about a year ago. Whenever I start dreaming of a Korean meal, I drive to Mama Woo's. As in most Korean take-out restaurants, one plate includes a meat choice, rice and then a choice of 4 our of 12 vegetable dishes. What I especially like are their kimchi and radish dishes and nearly all their vegetable dishes, including fried eggplant. When I had a big party recently, I went to Mama Woo's for their Kalbi and BarBQ chicken catering plates. Everyone raved about their meal. If there is a drawback, parking is limited so arrive on off-hours.

Super friendly staff, great barbecue flavor and good value. I'd never tried this place though I'd passed it many times. I saw the positive reviews and menu shots on Maps and decided to check it out. It does not disappoint.

Unexpectedly awesome family-owned restaurant! Really good value, and delicious Korean BBQ! Generous portions..

Tasty homemade Korean food but the process was a little hectic and confusing during peak dinner time. You order from an overhead menu, choose three sides cafeteria style which they scoop right away and then stack until the kitchen makes your main. I went in for two dinner plates (fish jun and bulgogi )and decided to add soup and squid. Everything comes with sides so I ended up with enough food for 5-6 people! The bulgogi and seaweed soup were really good as were most of the sides.It’s standing room only inside so if you can, I would suggest ordering ahead. There were a couple of people waiting when I arrived but the phone kept ringing off the hook as they took our orders. Pandemonium! but more so for us watching I think. Somehow they keep track of all the orders by writing on the boxes. They had a little slip up with my order and apologized profusely for the wait. It didn’t take that long but there were people waiting outside when I left.

get the meat jun or the bibimbap (pictured). so delicious

We always order take out from Mama Woo's. Their food is yummy and their service is always friendly. We've ordered family packs or individual plates - you can make their menu work for what you need. Call ahead for faster service. The only downside is the parking - we often wish their parking lot had more spaces available and was less cramped, but it isn't reason enough to stop going there.

Awesome Korean food. Lots of sides! My favorite take out spot for sure!
