  We had the Be Bim Bop and the Bul Go Gi. Both we're delicious. The Bim Bop was our favorite- perfect sauce, crunching veggies, marinated meat, so good! I only wish there was twice as much meat.
  
  A great experience. We will be back

  Korean is not an ethnic food group that I am very familiar with. Not that I am not interested, I just never knew where to go. Thankfully a friend suggested Kum's, and it turned out to be a great first experience.
  
   I kind of wanted to go balls to the wall, so I went with the octopus dish. It was perfect for me, because it was spicy, flavorful, and is seafood.
  
   They have such a big menu, and while it can be a little overwhelming, there's bound to be something for everyone. The portion sizes are also very generous!

  Meant to go to Koreana 2, not far from here, but they were closed on Monday despite or showing it was open on Yelp. Sat down on the dining side away from the crunchy chicken counter. Was greeted by a warm Korean ajumma.
  Ordered a veggie Kimbap, 2 dolsot tofu bibimbaps.
  
  I was hungry and craving some Korean food. Looks like they are known for their crispy and crunchy chicken too.
  Was a bit apprehensive at first since there were no Korean customers but luckily a Korean mother and daughter walked in shortly after we put in an order.
  The owners are friendly, attentive, warm and welcoming to everyone. Kudos to them for treating their customers so warmly.
  The kimbap was yummy, would have been better with sriracha though. We used the gojuchang for a little added flavor.
  My Korean craving was well satiated at least.
  
  There was about 6 banchans or side dishes with our meal. The fish cake was a bit rubbery, over cooked and too salty. The cucumbers were too big for easy banchan consumption. The kimchi was decent, went with the dolsot but didn't have a ton of flavor on their own. The braised potatoes were good, not too sweet. The radish kimchi wasn't bad either. The chewy cucumber or spicy veggie was not my thing, was chewy and I couldn't tell what veggie I was consuming.
  
  The mother next to us asked how our food was and I told her it was good.

  Yesterday was my second time coming here. First time the food was amazing and very well seasoned. This time the food was just okay and they were missing things. I ordered the Mon Do half order of 6 for $4.95, and the kim bop for $5.95. They didnt have the Kim Bop which was disappointing cause it was one of the reasons I went. Also ordered the lunch Bulgogi for $9.95. Food came out fast and with four side dishes and a side of white rice. The Mon Do was crispy but overly salty. My 2 year old loved them and for $4.95 it was a great deal for 6 cause they are huge. The Bulgogi came out and wasnt that hot. But I ate it anyways cause I was starving. The Bulgogi lacked flavor from the last time I had it. The sides that come with all Korean food were great except the KimChi. Their Kimchi just doesnt have any flavor what so ever. But the other sides were amazing and had a little bit of everything. Salty, sweet, sour. The lunch is the best way to go. Everything is under $10 and for newbies to Korean it's a perfect way to try out things without spending a fortune. If they have the Kim Bop get it! I'm so bummed they didnt have it this time cause last time it was my favorite. Especially with the sauce that comes with it.

  Got a spicy Chicken Bul Go Gi. Flavor is amazing. Food comes out hot. Cook to order, staff members are polite. Nice family owned business. You can sit down or get take out. Nice low-key, get away spot to eat at.
