Bibim Korean Bistro

My third time here...and this time I brought my husband.We both ordered Dolsot Bibimbap...1 Bulgogi, and 1 Spicy Chicken. We also ordered Fried Mandoo and Ice Cream Sandwich w/ JeonByeong to share.Well, both my husband and I loved the Dolsot Bibimbap...and we both agreed that this place has the best Bibimbap in Charlotte. We also enjoyed the Fried Mandoo and the dessert as well.As always, this place hits everything you can ask for in a restaurant...from nice ambiance (though they could use some wall decor-accents) and good overhead music, to fresh, delicious foods (all beautifully presented) and fast, attentive service. Definitely deserves 5 stars...again!

The chicken "gangeon" . ..not sure of the spelling but definitely sure about the taste! It was delicious! The service was fast and friendly. I went for lunch and dinner in the same day! Guess what...I'm on my way back again today! I'm addicted!

Super delicious food! I got tteok fries and sweet & spicy fried chicken for delivery a little while back, and it was delicious!! The rice cakes were perfectly chewy and had a nice crispy texture on the outside, and the dipping sauces were great. The fried chicken was flavorful and not too spicy. Hope to get their food again soon!

Amazing service and staff! Super friendly and knowledgeable waitress that was able to explain the dishes we asked about and delivered exactly what we requested. I brought my sister here for her birthday so she could try something new out of her comfort zone. She loved her Dolsot Bibimbap with chicken and soy sauce. It was something she had never seen or even heard of before and she thought it was delicious! I had the same with tofu and Gochujang sauce it was very good, I would have liked the tofu to be crunchy but with all the steam in the bowl I am not sure how that would be possible. It was delicious and I would recommend and get again. We had the Gangjeong KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) for appetizer and it was sticky sweet with a little kick of spice. We almost fought over the last piece but it was her birthday so I let her have it. Definitely good dipped in the Gochjang sauce for more spice! The waitress was so kind and brought my sister a slice of cake with a candle as a gift for her birthday! The restaurant is very nice and easy to get in and out. The restaurant looks to do a lots of both takeout and dine in orders so definitely check them out!

I had an amazing food experience here! I absolutely love Korean food and when my friend mentioned this place to go, I did not hesitate to say yes! I wanted to try everything on the menu! But I tried to practice self control and I went ahead and ordered a lot of appetizers so I could try those! Everything and I mean everything was delicious! The meat for the gimbap was bulgogi beef and it was so tasty. I got my dumplings steamed and they were filled with pork and they were cooked to perfection! I also got kimchi and white rice. Finally, the gimmari was amazing! They are crispy seaweed noodle rolls and I just kept eating them and the sauce they came with was delicious as well! I am definitely coming back to try more items on the menu!

We were visiting Charlotte and desperately needed our Korean fix from where we currently live. We heard great things about this newer spot.We were there a little late in the evening so it was quiet with a few customers. The place overall is very clean and well put together. We were welcomed with smiles from the staff.Our staples for ordering is usually the dolsot bibimbap and soondubu jigae. They both came out piping hot as you'd expect, and the spiciness was perfect. We also tried their tteokbokki, which I kinda wished there was more in a plate but it's probably for the best to not have too much and spoil the meal.The one thing I would say for feedback is there was no banchan or roasted corn tea, which was a bummer they didn't have but it's not something to knock down a star for. If we come back to Charlotte, we will without hesitation come back!

Food was alright. Service was friendly enough but a little lacking. Establishment was clean.

The atmosphere is really nice - huge upgrade from the former kabob place that used to occupy the space. The staff was really friendly and accommodating. The food was very good - delicious, all fresh ingredients, and prepared just right. Ballantyne was lacking a Korean place but this nailed it!

Best place we've found in Charlotte area for Dolsot Bibimbap.This is quite a drive from where we live, but we enjoy Korean food and saw the good Yelp reviews and wanted to try it.Beer menu is typical for Asian places - standard Japanese beers (don't expect local IPA's here). We started with the Kimchi Jeon ($14) and the three of us really enjoyed it.My bride and I both ordered the same thing, the Dolsot Bibimbap ($18) with chicken....but I ordered the spicy version. My MIL ordered the Deopbap and added an egg ($20). All of us enjoyed our food and dining experience. Solid spot for Bibimbap.....we will be back!

The staff are friendly and helpful. They greeted us with smiles and a warm welcome. I find the interiors to be beautiful and simple with mixed elements of wood and metal.I ordered the classic Beef Bibimbap which I loved so much paired with the refreshing grape drink. The plating looked so perfect that you might think it was going to be used for a product shoot. The vegies blended all so well. Not overpowering one another but was a melody of flavors while still being individually tasty. The rice was soft and cooked to the right texture. The beef was tender and seasoned well. The egg was nothing short but perfection with runny yolk topped with a hint of sesame seeds. All mixed together that delivered a wonderful symphony of flavors in every bite while every instrument was still distinctive. Drizzled with their homemade ssamjang. Delicious!My wife had the Sundubu which was actually way better than what we were expecting. So flavorful and rich that was balanced by the soft silky tofu.I'm looking forward to seeing this business thrive and expand!
