Gogobop Korean Rice Bar

Surprisingly good! The idea of a fast casual bibimbap sounded good compared to typical lunch options but this far exceeded my expectations. I'm still craving it. The pork belly was flavorful and tender with not too much fat, purple rice was satisfying, banchan toppings were of good quality, and sauce providing just enough creamy fusion flavor. Everything together loaded up the bowl nicely without being gluttonous. Dare I say that I like this better than traditional bibimbap? Please look into opening one in the South Bay! It might work out!

Love this place! Best lunch in Westwood! I work near UCLA and get this for lunch whenever I'm in the office. Great flavors, great variety, tons of flavor and portions are big!Only downside is there's only two locations -- Westwood and Koreatown. PLEASE open a spot in the South Bay! El Segundo, Manhattan Beach, Torrance??

Was disappointed that the Hawaiian rice bowl place I had the last time I was in town went out of business. This place was in the same shopping center in Koreatown, so decided to give it a try. To me it is kind of like a Chipotle style burrito bowl with Korean/Asian ingredients. There were so many options for customization. Even for the base, there were 2 kinds of rice, noodles and veggies, from which you can choose any combination of 4. I got a combination of white rice, purple rice, cabbage, and noodles for my base. For my proteins, I got beef bulgogi and gochu chicken. The beef was super juicy and flavorful. The chicken was tender but not especially flavorful or as spicy as was expecting. I topped it off with kimchi, seaweed, cucumbers, bean sprouts, jalepenos, and wasabi mayo. Every part was really tasty individually and delicious together in the bowl. The price for portion was pretty good as well. Definitely woould come back.

Truly amazed at how delicious this bowl was.jusy stopped by as I was walking pass. The service was great, the location was clean. All the ingredients seemed to taste fresh and very flavorful. Great secret spot.

The amount of food you get for the price is unbeatable I'm the area. Also tastes fresh with a lot of flavor. Walked in right at open and they were already churning out literally a hundred catering orders. Yet they still had time to serve my order quickly. Modern interior with some seating but it's nice to sit outside too. Quick and easy lunch.

Love it! It's such a quick and easy meal, makes me feel semi-healthy, as well, lol!I love that they have not just pre-made combos but also you can create your own. I like what I like, so making my own is always ideal at spots. I've tried many different combos and am always loving my creations.Strangely, they are open weekdays at normal hours 11am-8pm but weekends, they are only open from 11am to 3pm on Saturday, closed on Sundays. Something to keep on mind if you're planning on popping by.The ingredients are always incredibly fresh and delicious. I haven't been disappointed with any protein options but must say I like the Chicken Gochujang Bowl the best. Give me a little spice in my life! Prices are great and I'll def continue going to Gogobop.

My work got catering from here. We got beef bulgogi and gochujang chicken bowls! Both were good and came with an orange sauce. They are a quick and fast heathy meal and i got the chance to enjoy both bowls. The food was fresh and the portions sizes were nice. You guys should try them!

Delicious convenient Korean food! I ordered to go online as well as once in person. In person I arrived very close to closing time and they still kindly served me and made me two fresh bowls. Online ordering was smooth and easy. Meat is delicious as well as all the toppings and extras! I've tried the pork belly, bulgogi, and chicken and all were great. Love the japchae and vegetables. Inside is clean and a nice place to eat a quick lunch. I wish they would open some locations in OC!!

Love this place but a couple employees for some mysterious reason refuse to let me have rice on the side which is super annoying. Please let customers have rice on the side. I don't think it's too much of an ask!There also doesn't seem to be any way to communicate with the business. Messaged them on their Instagram but no response and website is down.
