Ubu Ubu

Really enjoyed this small spot off Harbor blvd. The 5 for $25 Inari deal was really attractive and everything tasted so good! We shared the Eel, tuna, and buldak chicken inari, they were pretty huge. Five pieces were more than enough for 2 people to share. The eel was definitely the standout, melts in your mouth. The instant ramen selection is quite extensive. It's fun to pick out your own and use the cooker to make your own, my wife liked that a lot. There's limited seating, so it may get a little crowded, but lunchtime wasn't too bad. Will definitely come back for more!

Limited seating in the restaurant, but I didn't have an issue finding a spot to sit.I got their salmon ubu and creamy spicy tuna ubu. Each ubu costed around $6. The ubu contained a lot of rice compared to protein ratio. The yubu tasted very basic, no sauce was on the salmon and only spicy mayo on the tuna yubu. I was disappointed in the lack of sauce/flavor considering its price. The restaurant also offered instant ramen where you can pay for toppings. However a bag of ramen costed $6.99, not including any toppings. Services was good but the restaurant is a bit pricey in my opinion

The food was delicious. Loved the salmon and buldak chicken ubu. It was perfect with the ramen. Service was very friendly as well and they offered customers free drinks and chips as part of a promotion. There is a restroom and lots of seating.Only took off a star because it's slightly pricey, but I get that they may be high due to rent costs.Would recommend checking this place out

We went on a saturday at noon and got our food fairly quickly. We got two fresh salmon ubu, two creamy spicy tuna ubu, and one crab meat ubu. I enjoyed the tuna the most! It was very fresh. The restaurant is a cute little place with onigiri, self-serve ramen, and tteokbokki as well.

Just checked out Ubu Ubu in downtown Fullerton - a small cute shop next to the pub. The staff and owner were super nice, explaining their menu and how carefully they prepare their dishes, especially the tteokbokki. This place is perfect for sharing different dishes with friends. I got the ramyun, spicy buldak onigiri, tamago and salmon ubu. The ramyun is cooked right at the store, and goes perfectly with the ubu and onigiri!! The ubu had this nice smoky taste with a slightly sweet flavor that worked really well together. I'll definitely come back to try their tteokbokki!

Despite the # of stars, the service was still great.The # of stars is for how long we had to wait for our order. I think it took about 20 mins for 3 pieces and then another 10 mins for our tteokbokki and spam/tamago musubi. (They did warn us they had to make more musubis though)We ordered more musubis to take home and we waited more than 20 mins though so if you can preorder, def do thatFriends said the spicy tuna was a little fishy though so probably wouldn't recommend but we really liked the spicy chicken (buldak) one! It was a pretty good amount of protein but i wish it had just a little bit more.I've tried multiple different stores and I'm not sure if I'd come back to this one for their inari but would definitely come back for their musubi. Would want to try their onigiri too!

Very pricey for pretty average yubu. $6 each meaning 2 rice pockets costs almost as much as a chipotle bowl (with guac lol).The spicy meat toppings are actually pretty spicy. But the meat quality could be better. Rice to topping ratio was disappointing especially for $6 each I expected more.

I'm usually pretty skeptical about coming to places that are trendy because it could seem overpriced, but ubu ubu was great! The workers were really nice and they took care of us well and the food was surprisingly filling too.We ordered the scallops, yuzu salmon, tuna, and pork and it was pretty loaded on top

Ubu Ubu is located right in Downtown Fullerton. The storefront is pretty unassuming, but I loved the concept where it's essentially taking after the instant ramen section of convenience stores in Korea. Essentially, you can pick your instant ramen pack and make it yourself using the ramen machine (for the buldak where you drain the water after, the workers will drain it for you. There were also a lot of fun Korean canned drinks as well and other small bites (ubu where it's tofu skin with a topping and rice and onigiri). Workers were also extremely nice!

After trying yubu at another spot, I was excited to see that this place opened up closer to me. This cute little shop is located in downtown Fullerton, with a large parking lot behind it. Here you can order yubu pockets, kimbap, make your own ramen, or grab some fruit sandos. I tried the salmon yubu and spicy tuna yubu. The salmon tasted fresh and mixed well with the sweet yubu pockets. The spicy tuna is similar quality to spicy tuna you'd find in a sushi roll. Both had a fairly strong kick to them, which I ended up realizing was due to a bit of wasabi put on top. I'm not a huge fan of wasabi so it was a bit off putting for me. If I were to order it again, I'd probably ask for no wasabi.The service is friendly and everything about the ordering process was easy. There are some seats here if you wanted to dine in or you can easily order and take it togo. Pricing is pretty standard for the area that it's in -- I think it's about $4-6 per yubu.
